Chapter 649: Chapter 649: Engagement is imperative!
Chi Enen took a deep breath and calmly asked Quan Dongting, “Please take me back to the hotel.”
“Enen!” Quan Dongting had never felt as helpless as he did now.
This news was laid out before her, yet she still believed that man.
No, he couldn’t let her continue any longer.
“In three days, they will hold their engagement ceremony. If you truly believe him, wait for three days and see if they really go through with the engagement ceremony.”
He paused, his gaze landing softly on Chi Enen’s stomach as if he longed to touch it but was afraid of startling her. He moved his gaze away with restraint and continued gently, “In these next several days, make sure you cooperate with recovering.”
Chi Enen opened her mouth.
It was as if he knew what Chi Enen was about to say, his tea-colored eyes piercing into her soul, “Of course, you can continue to not cooperate. But you should know that your body is too weak, and it will affect the health of the child in your stomach. You have already fallen into the sea, your body and mind both have been traumatized. If you don’t rest properly and recover well, I fear for the child in your stomach…”
He didn’t finish his sentence, but the meaning was clear.
Chi Enen bit her lower lip tightly, her left hand covertly touching her flat stomach. Clenching her teeth, she looked up, her bright eyes pleading, “I can stay and not return to the hotel, and I will cooperate with the recovery. But I have one condition.”
“I’ve said before, as long as it’s not going back to the hotel, whatever you need, I will do my best to satisfy it.”
Chi Enen shook her head, “I don’t need anything.”
“All I want from you is to make a phone call to Li Beijue, to tell him that I am safe.”
She had already realized that no matter what, Duke Habsden would not take her back to the hotel.
Even if she couldn’t return, at least she needed to let him know she was safe.
She always felt that Li Beijue’s engagement with Kim Zhixuan had something to do with her.
She trusted him, but she was also worried that he would be too impulsive.
“You don’t have to tell him where I am. Just let him know that I am safe and not in any danger.”
“Do you trust him that much?” Quan Dongting looked directly into her eyes as if trying to see something in them.
Chi Enen’s face, slightly pale, avoided his probing gaze, “Yes, I trust him.”
She believed there was something hidden, but she couldn’t possibly be calm about the news that Li Beijue was about to get engaged to another woman.
A suffocating feeling gripped her heart.
But still, she chose to believe.
Because that man was willing to spend an entire day just to create a surprise for her. To make her believe in him, he took her on a helicopter, used fireworks to form a heart-shape at sea level, wrote her name inside it, and told her that his heart had room for only her… She believed he wouldn’t change his feelings easily, especially not at this time.
Quan Dongting’s eyebrows knitted tightly together, as if he didn’t know what to say to her anymore and left the iPad with her, “The marriage alliance between two families isn’t as simple as you think. Since the news has been published, the engagement is a must. The marriage will definitely happen!”
What good is the true affection from a man who has been engaged to another woman?
“I know you can’t accept this. Take these next few days to rest well and think about it. Remember, whatever happens, I will always be the support for you and the child in your stomach. Try to accept it.”
