Supreme Mars novel Chapter 769

Spilling her heart out with an open mind, Lydia looked over.

The eyes contain sincerity, not like a clinical show, but what she has always wished for.

She was waiting for Leo to nod his head in agreement.

Leo, however, fell into silence.

Of course he was clear about Lydia's feelings.

It is natural to talk about bride price and dowry ---- after two people get married, Lydia has not given any dowry.

But when he first returned to Pearl, he lived in Lydia's house, slept in Lydia's bed, and Lydia cooked for him and did his laundry, and never complained about it from the beginning.

Aren't these enough?

Leo was not that superficial.

Lydia is also that snobbish ---- she just wants to take the best out of herself, that's all.

But for some reason, Leo felt guilty at the bottom of his heart.

He did not dare to look up into Lydia's eyes.

Time flies, and even if another five or ten years pass, he will never forget what happened that night at the Pearl Pier warehouse.

The one who hurt her the most was him.

What qualifications does he have to accept what Lydia has worked so hard to build?

It's a shame!

Leo shook his head, "I'm sorry, I can't accept it."

"Why?"

This answer did not surprise Lydia, but she still asked gently why.

After a long silence, Leo did not answer why, but said, "You have unfulfilled dreams, I will help you to complete them."

Lydia shook her head slightly, "You don't need to have a psychological burden, the past is all in the past, and it was my initiative and willingness to save you five years ago, I don't hate you."

"But I can't get past of it."

Leo interrupted Lydia and said, "You've had a hard time these past five years, and so have I. This has become a belief that sustains me to live, and I've come back to you with one purpose, to make amends, not to take."

"I can't have this dowry."

Leo turned his head away, opened the window and looked out at the night scene out of focus.

Lydia also fell into silence.

After a long time, she smiled to herself, "Since you have been compensating me, what am I? Why did you come back to me?"

"For you to feel better inside? Or do you really think of me as a wife?"

Lydia walked up to Leo and asked after him.

Faced with Lydia's questioning, Leo smiled bitterly as he explained, "I don't mean anything else, it's just that I really can't take what you have."

"You don't even understand what two people are supposed to do once they're together."

Dropping these words coldly, Lydia returned to bed, covered up with the blanket and prepared for sleep.

Leo's mouth opened slightly, wanting to say something, but Lydia simply rolled over and turned her back on him, not wanting to listen to his explanation at all.

Leo gave a bitter smile and had no choice but to sleep.

After an unknown amount of time, Leo had fallen asleep, but Lydia opened her eyes.

Rolling over, she gave Leo a complicated look and sighed softly.

The following day, after sending Emilia to her hobby class, Leo and Lydia went to meet Caroline at Valenham airport.

By the time they arrived at the airport, a plane had just landed.

Ten minutes later, a family of three came out of the waiting room.

At the head of the group was a long-haired woman wearing a mask and a long trench coat.

It was Caroline.

The middle-aged couple behind are William and Summer.

Having not seen him for a while, Leo noticed that William was actually more refreshed, dressed up in a suit.

"Leo, it's been a long time."

William came over for a hug.

"Dad."

Leo and Lydia greeted him.

Leo stole a glance at Summer, who was standing next to him, and smiled, "Dad, you have a good sex life, huh?"

At his words, Summer blushed. William glared at him and scolded with a smile, "Brat, what are you talking nonsense about?"

Caroline giggled as she watched from the side, her gaze falling on Leo and Lydia, "Leo, we'll all move in later, we won't disturb you and Lydia, right?"

She said with a wink.

"No ......"

Leo smiled and was about to reply.

Lydia was polite enough to smile first, "No, we are very busy every day, not like before, and it's just the right time to liven up the place with you guys staying here."

"......"

When Lydia finished speaking, Caroline and William's faces changed slightly, and they looked at Leo in surprise, with odd expressions.

Leo also froze, not expecting Lydia to say such a thing.

She was smiling, but that smile was fake.

Leo instantly remembered the disagreement that arose last night, and with a burst of helplessness, tried to go and pull Lydia's hand.

"Lydia, stop it ......"
