Please Love Me, Mr. George novel Chapter 319

No matter how stupid one was, they would know how to avoid harm and take any advantage they might get. Now that Antonia had known my background, she would subconsciously be concerned about what I did or said to her.

 

And now she was aware of what I was capable of doing, she would definitely think twice before she took any more action. Seeing Antonia had left, I stood in the yard, spaced out for a while.

 

I was so grateful that I had spent the past four years in peace. But now I thought about it, with them all coming over here, the quiet pleasant days might have to come to an end.

 

Uncle Link’s assistant came to pick him up after dinner. And Nathan took Joey back home, too.

 

With Joey going home, Clarie ran back to bed and fell asleep.

 

Perhaps it was because I was getting older, I didn’t seem to be able to fall asleep quickly. On a midsummer night, the sky was full of stars - It was naturally beautiful.

 

Maybe it had been hot and dry these few days, and the cicadas were always making noises. But fortunately, the nights were quiet, and with the company of the cicadas, somehow I felt less lonely.

 

In the middle of the night, there was a knock on the gate of the courtyard. I got up and opened the door - It was Dennis.

 

Under the dim street lamp, the man’s eyes were low and deep, and his slender body stood like a jade at the door.

 

Before I could speak, he had already embraced me in his arms. He didn’t speak, there was only the faint smell of alcohol surrounding him.

 

Helping him into the yard, I said, “Were you drinking?”

 

He didn’t respond to me but just hugged me quietly, looking like he was already asleep.

 

It was late at night and the yard was getting cooler, so I got up and helped him back to the bedroom.

 

Before helping him to the side of the bed, I was pressed against the door frame by him, and he held my face and sniffed it.

 

I raised my hand and tried to push him away, but I didn’t have enough strength to, “Dennis, let go!”

 

Dennis stopped, his eyes were deep, and his handsome face was filled with sadness that I had not seen in a long time, “It’s been four years! I thought I could slowly forget you, but the longer it has been, the more ingrained it has become. I could only depend on alcohol to numb yourself on those lonely nights.”

 

His words were unintelligible but painful.

 

“Just get some sleep.” Then I helped him to sit on the bed. Sometimes, the drunk person acted like a child.

 

Dennis didn’t want to lie on the bed. He just lay on my knees and put his arms around me. After a long time, I heard his faint breathing.

 

I sighed. My voice was low and calm, “Are you really drunk?”

 

He didn’t say anything, just kept hugging me.

 

I probably already knew the answer. If he was really drunk, I didn’t know he would be able to make it here to find me.

 

I picked him up, put him on the bed, and I left the bedroom.

 

I made him some soup and placed it by the bed. And I looked at the handsome gentleman who still had his eyes closed on the bed.

 

I said, “I have a kid at home.

After all, it was the person I had used to be in love with - Even if you had let go, you just couldn’t act like you were complete
strangers to each other.

The morning sunshine shrouded the entire HL Area. It was too early, the sun was not strong, and the dense fog surrounded
the small town.

I had to send Clarie Bear to school, so I got up early. I stood in front of the mirror in the bathroom, and looked at the woman
with pale eyebrows in the mirror - Her eyebrows were pale and her skin was pale. When did the sad look I used to have on my
face disappear?

Perhaps it was at the moment when I left for the HL Area. That was the moment when I let go of everything in my heart. This
place was really a good piace to recuperate.

In the yard, Dennis was already up. He was standing under the apricot tree in the yard, and he seemed to be looking at
something.

She saw Dennis and seemed a bit surprised. The world of children was always simple and she didn’t think much before
speaking.

Sometimes, what you said might be interpreted differently by the other person. I lowered my eyes - I always felt that as time
went by, everyone's heart would become a wasteland, and there would be no life anymore.

He looked at me and said with a light voice, “I’ve handled the stuff here at the hotel, and I will be going back to City P for a
few days.”
