President’s Sweet Wife novel Chapter 587

Laura shuddered in astonishment again.

She never thought Max would say those things to her.

His tone was extremely sincere and miserable. He was like a dying person waiting for her rescue.

She never knew he had already loved her to the marrow. This was unbelievable!

How proud and unrestrained Max usually was!

It was as if nothing in the world could make him bow his head.

But now, he was holding her, begging her to love him…

Tears suddenly rolled down Laura’s cheeks.

After a long while, Laura finally said softly with a broken voice, “Max, do you even know what you’re saying?”

“Yes.”

Max said in a coarse voice, “Sorry. I thought I shouldn’t tell you my true feelings until you said yes to me. I had been waiting for you to approach me. But I forgot that it was me who started this relationship, and it was also me who took the initiative to approach you first.”

“Sorry that my pride hurt you. I once thought of giving up, but I couldn't. So, Laura, would you give me a second chance?”

“This time, our relationship is not a deal and it should be unconditional. We’ll just be together as any other couples do. You can also throw tantrums at me and tell me anything you wanna say. Let’s date for real for once, OK?”

Hearing his words, Laura cried even harder.

But Max didn’t know that, because Laura was facing him with her back.

After a long time, Laura fought back her tears with difficulty and said, “Why bother?”

Yeah, why bother trying?

She knew perfectly that she would not agree to be with him no matter how well they got along.

Also, she was fully aware that Like moths flying to the fire, all their efforts would go wasted and they might even hurt themselves.

Thus, what was the point of trying again?

What did he see in her? Why would he strive to be with her?

Max gave a wry smile.

Truthfully, he didn’t know why he insisted on trying so hard either.

Yet, a small voice in his head told him that if he didn’t make an effort tonight, he might never have a chance again.

He was just trying to… hold on to the only woman he had ever loved wholeheartedly!

Max asked in an undertone, “Do you still hate me?”

Laura didn’t say a word.

Max continued, “I threatened you with your mother’s life. I had sex with you without your permission. And I often picked on you. Don’t you hate me to the gut?

Laura wanted to say no.

But the word that came out was “yes”.

Max laughed, as if mocking himself.

“This is why you should promise me. You gotta seize the chance to torture me and get back at me for all the sufferings I’ve put you through. What do you say?”

Laura’s tears, which had stopped running due to her effort, burst out again.

“Max, what should I do with you…” she thought to herself.

As if sensing that she was crying, Max finally let her go. He held her by the shoulders and turned her around to face him.

Then, he lowered his head, cupped his hands around her face, and began to kiss her teardrops.
