No One But You novel Chapter 45

I was drinking biluochun tea, which smelt good and cleaned the greasy food just now.

Mrs. Knight's words made my hand tremble. The tea was hot to the tip of my tongue.

I put down my teacup and looked at Mrs. Knight's face. She was still smiling. I didn't know what to say in reply.

“I don’t know, he did not propose to me.”

"But he told me." Mrs. Knight put down her teacup too, and, with two jaded fingers, picked up the melon seeds from the plate and peeled them.

She put the seeds into another clean, empty plate. I watched her with numbness as she continued to speak slowly.

"You are the first girl Calvin was willing to let you appear in front of me. I imagined your appearance before coming. You are different from what I imagined."

I listened quietly and wondered what I looked like in Mrs. Knight's eyes.

After a while she peeled off a handful of sunflower seeds and pushed the empty plate in front of me. "Sunflower seeds contain unsaturated fatty acids and lecithin," she said softly. "They are good for pregnant women and can improve your immunity."

"Mrs. Knight, you are so learned." I praised her.

She smiled was good-looking. Calvin and her looked really like, even the smiles of them were the same.

She looked up at me carefully. "You are beautiful, but you have a fire on you, and that fire will probably burn you and Calvin."

Mrs. Knight said so deeply. I became stupid after I was pregnant.

So I didn't hear from her whether she was for or against it.

"Don't worry, I'm not going to throw a check in your face and throw a glass of cold water like those evil mothers-in-law on TV. Calvin knows me very well, otherwise he wouldn't let you see me."

I was a good talker, but I didn't know what to say in front of Mrs. Knight.

Suddenly she reached out and shook my hand. There was barely warm in her palm. She then hurried away from the back of mine.

"Basically what Calvin decides to do doesn't change easily, but I know you two haven't known each other for a long time, and it's not just the baby in your belly that makes him decide to marry you in such a short time."

There was something indescribable in the way Mrs. Knight looked at me. I didn't know what it was.

I ate all the melon seeds on the plate, and then asked in a low voice, “Mrs. Knight, please tell me, do you agree or agree?"

Mrs. Knight smiled, “Do you love Calvin?"

She asked me so suddenly that I was speechless and didn't know what to say.

I always felt that I had not yet reached the level of love between me and Calvin.

Mrs. Knight wiped her hands with a damp paper towel and got up from her seat.

She did not say a few words, and her face remained unchanged in a faint, shallow smile.

She looked at me and said, "Miss Josephine, don't worry, I won't be an obstacle to you."

She turned to me again, with her pretty eyes fixed on me. "You don't love him."

With that, Mrs. Knight picked up the bag on the chair and turned away.
