Chapter 580 We Are Worlds Apart

Laney couldn‘t hide it anymore. She raised her head and blurted, “Yes! Laugh at me if you want! You‘vebeen in countless relationships; why couldn‘t I? Now that you know the truth, you must feel really goodabout yourself, right?” After baring her heart, Laney turned around and started to walk away. Sheshould never have trusted this playboy! Garrett was stunned for a few seconds. Then, he broke into agoofy grin. He had finally gotten this tough woman to fall in love with him! 1 He trotted to catch up toLaney and said sincerely, “I‘m serious about you, Laney. This isn‘t a game to me.” ‘‘Serious‘? Seriousenough to date another woman while waiting for me to come around? I‘m sorry, but that doesn‘t soundvery serious to me.” Laney glanced at him and sneered. With a slight frown, Garrett walked in front ofher to block her way. “That woman you saw –she isn‘t my girlfriend, silly. She‘s my cousin. We‘ve beenclose ever since we were kids. The day you saw us in the supermarket, she had come to visit me andfound out that I had nothing in the fridge, so we went to buy some groceries. I had no idea you‘d see usthere.” Hearing this, Laney stopped in her tracks. For some reason, she felt as though a weight hadbeen lifted off of her shoulders. Nonetheless, she still wanted to leave, but Garrett refused to step outof her way. “Where do you want to go? Since I‘ve made myself clear, you should give me an answer.”Garrett coughed awkwardly and then asked with one brow raised, “Were you jealous?” Only in thatmoment did Laney realize that she actually had feelings for Garrett. Her face turned as red as a tomatoand she quickly took a few steps back to put some distance between them. But her reaction alreadybetrayed her feelings. Seeing this, Garrett was overjoyed. He had always thought that he didn‘t have achance with Laney, but now, he was so glad to have been wrong. Laney didn‘t say anything, andGarrett didn‘t force her. “Of course, you can be in a relationship with anyone, but not that loser,” Garrettcontinued in a gentle voice. “So how about being in a relationship with me?” “Not a chance,” Laneyanswered without skipping a beat. Her response was like pouring a bucket of cold water over Garrett.She didn‘t even give it a thought! Was he that unattractive in her eyes? “Why not? You like me, don‘tyou?” Laney pursed her lips and eyed him warily. “If we were to get into a relationship, would you bedoing it out of fun or would you want it to last?” “I don‘t want to just have fun with you, Laney. I know it

sounds weird, because you‘re really not my type. But my feelings for you are real—I‘ve never felt thisway about the other girls I‘ve dated before.” Garrett looked into Laney‘s eyes sincerely and spoke in aserious tone. He added softly, “I want to protect you. I want you to be by my side for the rest of ourdays. I don‘t care what the cost is. I want this to last long–no, I want this to last forever.” Garrett hadnever considered getting married before. But now, looking at the tough woman in front of him, his heartsoftened. Laney looked up at him for a long time and finally sighed. “That‘s the problem. If you want tosettle down, you should be with someone who‘s from the same social status as you. We are worldsapart, Garrett. You should marry a lady from a rich family, not someone like me.” novelbin
