Faye Townsend’s entire mind was in a daze, and her heart was in a state of oxygen deprivation.
He slightly loosened his grip and looked at her, intensely focused, without shifting his gaze.
Faye’s face felt burning hot.
She didn’t know how to face him at this moment, her eyes filled with nervousness and panic.
Faye’s heart tightened, feeling a bit scared inside.
"You still have feelings for me, so we can go back, we definitely can."
His hands moved up, cupping her small face, forcing her to look at him.
"What you’re missing now is just time.
Don’t rush, neither of us should rush, let’s take it slow.
Sooner or later, you will be able to accept me again.
I also have to pay for my past actions.
So I’ll wait for you, no matter how long it takes, I can wait.
As long as one day, you can sincerely treat me, love me, then my life will not have been lived in vain."
Faye’s eyes brimmed with tears, she wanted to cry, but she couldn’t cry in front of him.
She could no longer control her tears now.
She felt like her heart was about to explode.
In order not to embarrass herself in front of him, she turned around to avoid him.
But he pulled her into his arms.
"When you want to cry, my shoulder is here for you to lean on.
In the future, if the sky falls, I’ll be buried together with you."
The moment her cheek touched his shoulder, tears fell in drops.
The fear in her heart did not diminish because of this.
She was already used to the current lifestyle, and she really didn’t know how to change some things.
She was afraid of change, afraid of facing these things that easily disturbed her mind.
But tonight, no, at this moment, she really seemed to be sinking.
So, she gave herself a reason, the environment tonight was so beautiful, it’s okay for the heart to be fragile for a moment.
She didn’t know how long they hugged, but Faye’s mood had calmed down a lot.
She gently pushed away, but he was reluctant to let go.
"It’s already very late, we should be going back."
Only then did Hunter Warren release her, he looked at her face and smiled with pressed lips: "Silly girl."
Faye turned and walked forward, the two left the park one after the other.
Faye had trouble sleeping all night, Hunter Warren’s words kept swirling in her mind.
And those weren’t even the most troubling things, what worried her the most now was how to tell Forrest about taking the two kids back to Eldoria.
Forrest would definitely be upset, right?
And in fact, she knew him well enough because he was really angry.
The next morning, when Faye went to switch shifts with Kay Forrest, she specifically asked the caregivers to help take care of Miya, and she went to a restaurant outside the hospital with Kay to have breakfast.
Noticing she was just mindlessly poking her food with a fork instead of eating properly.
Forrest stuffed bread into his mouth and asked: "Didn’t you say you wanted to eat out? Why aren’t you eating properly?
Look at that piece of bread on your plate, it’s almost going to be dissected by you."
"Forrest, I want to discuss something with you."
Faye blinked her big eyes at him, looking very earnest.
"Say it if you want to say something, why are you staring at me?
Are you trying to use charms on me? I’m not really into that."
"Ah, be serious, it’s something serious I’m going to say.
Well... I want to take the two kids back to Eldoria."
Upon hearing this, Forrest dropped his fork on the table: "Is it that Hunter Warren who encouraged you to do this?"
Faye looked at him without replying.
Forrest folded his arms in displeasure: "I just knew nothing good would come when that jinx showed up here.
But be honest with me, Faye, what exactly are you planning?
You’re not really going to be sweet-talked into rekindling old flames with him, are you?
Don’t forget, you guys have a past.
Even if you can overlook the things where he hurt you.
Can he overlook the fact that you drove away Sebastian Sheldon originally?
If he could, I don’t think he would have ignored you for so many years.
Are you planning to forget the pain once the scar heals?
Let me tell you, my answer is clear, I disagree.
Don’t think of using the two kids to get back with him.
Faye, that’s really despicable, do you know that?"
Faye looked at him with grievance: "Forrest, you know me.
I didn’t mean to get back with him.
It’s just... he’s got a point.
I can’t ignore the company my parents worked so hard to build.
Yet I don’t want to leave the two kids.
Taking the kids back with me is the best choice for me."
