I like you, I know it myself!
The boldest thing Enna Clark has ever done is to unabashedly confess her feelings to a man like she’s doing now.
Not knowing if it’s because there are people not too far away outside, her nerves were tightly strung as she firmly grasped the man’s strong arm, desperately trying to suppress her voice, fearing her nervousness and embarrassment would cause it to involuntarily tremble.
“The proof I can offer is just . I like you, I…” Even she didn’t know how to continue.
Her words were the best encouragement for Baron Lawrence.
His heart, which had just fallen into the abyss, reached heaven in an instant. But before he could rejoice, his piercing eyes settled on her, and with a complicated expression, he questioned, “Enna Clark, are you saying you like me because of Tobias Clark?”
Enna became so nervous she nearly lost consciousness but suddenly realized why he had reacted so strongly to this question in the recent past. It turns out, he hadn’t left that night and was outside Wyndham Howell’s hospital room.
He only heard what Dr. Howell asked her if she chose to be with him because of Bobby, without hearing what she said afterward.
Enna understood the reasons behind his behavior and realized why he made sure Dr. Howell lost his job. But at that moment, she didn’t know if to be angry at him for only listening to half the conversation or to pity him.
She couldn’t imagine that from that day to this past month, Baron Lawrence, with his quick-tempered personality, hadn’t already brought the matter up and questioned her while grabbing her wrist and growling.
Instead, he had been holding back, bottling up his emotions.
She was spacing out at this critical moment!
Baron Lawrence wished he could crush her into his bones and was about to tell her to shut up and not listen to the answer anymore.
But then he saw the little woman in front of him come back to her senses, her hands firmly hugging his waist, and kissing him on the lips once again, giving him a firm answer, “I don’t like you just because you are Bobby’s father, but because you are Baron Lawrence.”
“Baron Lawrence, I like you.”
“Not because of who you are, but because you are you.”
Unsure of whether she’ll be able to say it again, she bravely took the opportunity to say it all in one go, “I don’t know how much you heard outside the hospital room that night, or what you heard. But I made it clear to Dr. Howell that I didn’t like you just because you are Bobby’s father, but because you are Baron Lawrence. I also told him that I should not have continued to contact him knowing you care, and just because I think there’s nothing ambiguous between us doesn’t mean it’s fine. He also promised that we would try not to meet or contact each other in the future. He even apologized to me, saying he caused trouble between us…”
“Dr. Howell is a good person, and his daughter and Darling are good friends. I don’t want the two families to be at odds because of a groundless issue. So that’s why I was so angry when I heard the kindergarten teacher say you caused Dr. Howell to lose his job. But I just wanted to explain to you that there’s no ambiguity between Dr. Howell and me like you imagined, I never intended to argue with you…”
If she had chosen another time to say this, Baron Lawrence might not have been receptive.
But now, Baron Lawrence took it all in and also saw the sincerity in her eyes.
His thin lips pursed, and with a dark expression, he said, “You left halfway through the conversation yesterday.”
