Georgia never asked about the result of the lab test after she brought Annie and Robert for a DNA test. Georgia was confident that Annie and Robert were blood-related. So, she didn’t pay too much attention to the matter.
Georgia couldn’t believe it when Robert revealed the truth and told her the accident happened. What was more unbelievable was Robert said that he believed in Georgia. Georgia remained silent and stared at the man standing in front of her.
After a while, Georgia asked, “Why did you believe in me this time?”
“Intuition.”
Robert answered.
“I was thinking that my heart wouldn’t lie to me, so I believe that you won’t lie to me either.”
Georgia smiled. Then, a drop of tear rolled down her cheek as she smiled.
“I thought you hated me, and you’ve been keeping your distance.”
Georgia sighed. She still remembered what Robert said to her after she woke up from a year-long coma. That was the first time Robert saw her after she woke up.
Georgia was so heartbroken, but when she thought of what Robert did to her in the past, she told herself not to be defeated.
Georgia had to get her man back.
However, she had no clues, and she couldn’t see what the future held for her back then.
But now, Georgia suddenly felt like she could see the lights on the road in front of her.
“Since you said that you believe in me, then tell me, what do you plan to do next?”
Georgia looked into Robert’s eyes and asked.
Georgia didn’t point it out, but it was obvious that she was asking about Robert’s plan for the future. How Robert was going to choose between Georgia and Sierra, and what Robert planned to do in the future?
“There’s something I can’t give you a certain answer. I still couldn’t determine what’s real and what’s not beside me. I need to find out the truth. Before I do, I don’t want to hurt anybody.”
Robert didn’t make his choice. He was willing to believe in Georgia, but he felt like he was surrounded by danger all the time. He couldn’t even determine if Sierra was true to him.
Sierra did so much for him. He wouldn’t reveal his doubts and hurt Sierra before he had solid evidence.
Robert didn’t tell anyone his doubts about the people around him. He didn’t want Georgia to come back to him, at least for now, because he thought it was dangerous to be around him.
“I hope you find the truth you’re looking for soon.”
Georgia was a little disappointed, but she wouldn’t force Robert. Since Robert chose to believe in her, she needed to take things slow and don’t pressure herself too much.
Don’t rush it. Georgia and Robert’s relationship just got better. She should appreciate what she had now.
“But I still need a few strands of your hair.”
Georgia said to Robert in a serious tone.
“I hope you won’t ask me what I’m going to do with it. There’s something I need to do by myself.”
At the end of the day, Robert granted Georgia’s request.
Georgia and Robert then started to have their food silently. None of them had spoken ever since.
Upon finishing their food, Georgia and Robert headed into the lift and was going to head home.
It was awkwardly silent in the lift. Nobody talked.
Suddenly, Georgia and Robert voiced out at the same time.
“Annie has been looking forward to seeing you.”
“Stay away from Riley. He has ill intentions.”
Both Georgia and Robert laughed after saying what they wanted to say.
When they were about to continue their story, the lights in the lift went off. The next second, the lift fell.
Georgia screamed, “Robert!”
Georgia immediately looked for Robert. She reached out her hands in panic in the dark.
Then, a hand reached out and pulled Georgia into his arms.
The lift fell and hit the ground floor in just a split second. Georgia could feel her body pressing against Robert’s on the floor.
Georgia heard Robert muffled. The lift had stopped falling, and it was dark. Georgia asked in a panic, “Did I hit you? I’ll help you get up. Are you injured?”
Georgia asked in a nervous tone, and Robert answered in a calm and soothing voice.
“I’m fine. It was the impact of the rapid fall. Are you injured?”
Georgia shook her head. Then, she realized Robert probably couldn’t see her reaction in the dark.
“How can I injure myself when I’m lying on you?”
Then, Georgia hugged Robert tightly and buried her face in his arms. Then, Georgia said in a muffled tone, “I was thinking, I won’t have any regrets if we died in here. You reached out your hands for me, just like how it used to be. You would stand in front of me when there’s danger. I’m happy you did that.”
Georgia reached out her hand to Robert’s face after finishing her words. Before Robert realized what Georgia was going to do, Georgia kissed Robert’s cheek.
