Chapter 577 A Promise to Her of His Lifetime
James raised his trembling fingertips to wipe the streaming tears on her cheeks.
Under the hawk eyes were looks of distress. The man, too, had his eyes brimming with tears.
It was his first time hearing her express her love and cry out her disappointment in him.
Only then did he come to the realization that his Amelia loved him dearly…
Yet, he had hurt her, not to mention how he had never given her enough sense of security, which led to her being so insecurely sensitive.
He wanted to own her, but he had never considered how tortured she would feel…
His fingers weaved through her hair and clasped the back of her head so that her uncontrollable sobbing self could lean against his shoulder.
“Amelia, I promise you that from now on, no other woman will appear by my side other than you.”
2/4
Chapter 577 A Promise to Her of His Lifetime When he said so, it was like taking an oath. In his eyes were the unwavering determination and a promise to her of his lifetime.
Amelia, who lay against his shoulders, hugged him hard, and after crying her eyes out, raised her hand to wipe the dripping
tears away.
She was still deeply trapped in the emotions of the past. When she slowly returned to her calm self, she sat up straight and looked at the man whose eyes were red-rimmed, but had never uttered a single word.
“James, these aren’t just what set us apart…”
The man on the sofa didn’t respond. Instead, he continued wiping her tears with his fingertips.
Amelia parted her lips to speak, but James rested his thumb on
them.
“Amelia, your eyes, you shouldn’t cry too much, don’t ever cry again.”
He didn’t want to hear what she had to say about them being not meant for each other. To him, the only thing that was holding them back was not loving each other.
Amelia gently pushed his finger away. In her light-colored pupils, only a clear and rational mind was all that remained after dismissing all sorrows from the past.
“James, I know you don’t want to hear this, but since you asked,
Chapter 577 A Promise to Her of His Lifetime 3/4 I must make it clear to you.”
With his chin raised, the man’s bleary eyes were on Amelia.
“Amelia, I’m listening…”
No matter what she said, he would take it in. In a worst-case scenario, he would die for her.
After taking a deep breath, Amelia began speaking.
“You told me that the restaurant is not a romantic restaurant,
but an ordinary western restaurant. I was deceived by Jessica because I couldn’t read French, but if I could, there would have
been a lot less conflict between us.”
“And the LOW-E glass you mentioned. I don’t know anything, and I’ve never even heard of it, including equestrianism. I can say that I do not master any of all the skills and techniques you
do…”
“I have little experience, and I don’t have a photographic memory either. Even if I make up for my shortcomings from now on, there’s still a galaxy between us…”
“Also, you’re from a family of plutocrats, the leader of the three respected families, and the chairman of a global organization. You have a prominent status that’s unparalleled, while I’m just an orphan with no background.”
