Let's Get Married novel Chapter 575

He suddenly asks this question. Eunice is amazed. Her mind goes blank for a few seconds. After thinking for a while, she realizes that he is referring to what she said when she was eating.

She looks at the man beside her in surprise and says, "I don't have a boyfriend. I deliberately said that because I didn't want Adair to continue the topic."

At that time, she is afraid that it will be embarrassing to continue, so she says that she has a boyfriend already.

The man's gaze is fixed on her fair face. The doubt in his heart quietly faded, but his face is still tense. "Since you don't have a boyfriend, don't lie. I don't want to make Adair sad."

"Sad? Eunice blinks her eyes. She doesn't think that she has done anything wrong. "He...isn't sad, is he? Besides, he doesn't know what it means to like someone at his age. I was just afraid that we might be embarrassed."

Unexpectedly, Ryan doesn't care at all, saying, "I'm not embarrassed, and I won't think too much."

Eunice does not know what to say.

'Is he saying that he doesn't like me at all, and I shouldn't take it seriously?' Eunice talks to herself.

She doesn't think there is anything wrong at first, but she is somewhat distracted by his inexplicable words. She can't help but complain to him, "Since you don't care, so what if I say I have a boyfriend? Adair's just a child. How could he be sad about something like this? I'm also afraid of being misunderstood, OK?"

Ryan frowns again, "Being misunderstood?"

"That's right. There is nothing between you and me. I said that I had a boyfriend, so that Adair wouldn't think too much about it." Even Eunice does not notice that she is saying these words with a tone of blame.

It is as if her own feelings had been rejected and ignored by others. She wants to pretend to be Okay and fight back.

If Ryan was just a little depressed just now, then he really doesn't want to waste any words now. He directly walks past her into the hotel lobby.

Eunice grits her teeth and follows him closely. When she arrives at the elevator entrance, she steps in. Behind her, the elevator door closes. She and Ryan are reflected on the mirror wall of the elevator.

Thinking of what happened today, Eunice whispers, "You like Adair very much, don't you?"

Ryan puts both of his hands into his pants pockets and stands there casually. He's still very charming. He only indifferently gives her a glance and does not reply.

Eunice is accustomed to his silence. She asks again, "How long has he lived with you since he is young?"

"Five years," Ryan gives his response to her this time.

He blurts out this "five years" without hesitation. Eunice realizes that he must be very happy to recall the past five years. Otherwise, he would not have said "five years" so straightforwardly.

Those five years must have been a rare time for him to be together with that woman named Lily.

He has loved her so deeply, but why hasn't he been able to win her heart in five years? Why is Lily thinking? Why is she completely unmoved by such a man?
