The Billionaire's Heir I Never Knew Was Mine novel Chapter 115

Chapter 115: Should I Confess to Him?

The question was enough to leave Sienna frozen for a moment. Her thoughts started to spiral again.

’How could this man possibly ask me that while looking at me like that? Did he know what I was thinking?’

Her hand clenches tightly. At this moment, countless honest answers were already screaming inside her head.

’You’re handsome, gentle, and kind. You’re also patient, mature, and calm...’

She swallowed after hearing her honest thoughts.

And her thought didn’t give her time to relax; it continued to answer him—

’Zach, you are a perfect man. The kind of man who only existed in my sweetest dream and imagination. And somehow, the most frightening part was that you are real.’

Sienna let out another slow, deep sigh, trying to calm her heartbeat.

However, standing so close in front of him and seeing the gentle look in his eyes, she found all her efforts to steady herself had failed.

Sienna knew she could never say those things out loud.

So in the end, after struggling silently with her own heartbeat and thoughts for several long seconds, she finally forced herself to answer softly—

"You’re a good man, Zach..." Those were the only words she could now bring herself to say.

She saw him smile faintly after hearing her answer. It was not the kind of smile that came from amusement or politeness. It looked softer than that. Almost as if her words had reached somewhere deep inside him before he carefully hid his reaction again.

Then—

Slowly, he turned his gaze away from her and looked back toward the tall glass wall overlooking the city lights outside her apartment.

Sienna remained standing beside him.

Waiting.

The silence stretched longer than it should have. And somehow, it made her heart feel restless.

She lowered her gaze briefly while trying to steady her thoughts. Honestly, she still did not fully understand why he suddenly asked her that question.

’What kind of person do you think I am?’

The question sounded simple at first, yet the more she thought about it, the more complicated it became. Because deep down, she felt like Zachary had not been asking casually. It felt personal.

Just as the silence began stretching too long between them again, Zachary finally spoke.

"Thank you, Sienna."

His low voice immediately pulled her out of her thoughts.

She looked up at him in confusion.

"For what?"

This time, Zachary glanced at her briefly over his shoulder. "For complimenting me."

"I’m not complimenting you," she replied honestly.

After a brief pause, her voice softened. "I’m simply stating a fact. In my observation, so far, you are a good man."

The moment the words left her lips, something shifted subtly inside Zachary’s expression. For a brief second, he looked disappointed.

’Did I say something wrong?’

Sienna stared at him carefully, trying to understand the unreadable look on his face.

’Why does he look unhappy...?’

But as always, Zachary gave her nothing more. His expression returned to his usual calm.

"Zach, I’m serious. You’re a good man," she called softly.

His gaze returned to her immediately.
