“No/ Stefan quickly replied, his voice dismissive.
“Impossible!” Cecilia broke down, wailing at this point. She wrapped her arms around his neck, rubbingher cheek against his as before, hoping to rekindle his love.
“You’re worried about hurting Christopher. You’re holding back your love for me, right? You’ve neverforgotten about me, right?! You feel the same, don’t you?!”
“This has nothing to do with Chris.” Stefan looked frostier now, pushing her away.
“Even if you never ended up with Chris, there’s just no hope between us. Please understand that.”
“Why?!” Cecilia yelled at Stefan, unable to accept the fact that the man no longer loved her.
“You used to love me so deeply!” she moaned. “I remember how you confessed to me under thesakura tree, how you kissed me softly! I know you genuinely loved me!”
“You were willing to give up your position as an heir for me! You would follow me overseas when I wasplanning to further my studies! How could you give up on love as deep as that?!”
“I admit I once loved you deeply, and that love was genuine too, but that’s all in the past now. Both ofus have to cherish other people in our lives now. ” Stefan replied with hidden implications.
He did indeed fall for Cecilia back then, to the point he mistakenly thought he still held feelings for herduring his entire marriage.
Only after Renee divorced him did he finally realize that he missed the genuine love he once provided.It definitely wasn’t Cecilia.
With his current single status, he felt like he was just reminiscing about that pure, innocent relationshipthey once had.
“Hah… cherish others? Who are you talking about, huh?!” Cecilia huffed sarcastically.
“You might not know this, but your precious little Chris is such a fake person! He doesn’t even love me.He just thinks my status and background make me a suitable candidate to join the Jacobs family!”
“They’re involved in politics, so, of course, they have to find someone with a scholarly family too…”
“Would you believe me when I say he’d be relieved if I were to become a runaway bride?”
Stefan narrowed his eyes. He had never noticed Christopher and Cecilia encountering problems intheir relationship.
They’ve been so lovey-dovey for the past few years, though…’
“Christopher is a logical man. He normally shows his love through his actions. He might not beexpressive, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t care about you,” Stephan responded. He didn’t wish painon Cecilia.
He then patted her on her shoulder for extra comfort. “Don’t overthink it. Chris does love you.”
“Don’t try to comfort me. You don’t know anything…” Cecilia took a deep breath, her expression bitter.
“So you’re rejecting me because you have someone else you’d like to cherish, don’t you?”
Stefan pressed his lips together, staying silent.
He wondered, ‘Do I have someone else? I’m not sure either.’
However, the first person who came to mind was Renee.
‘But we’ve already ended things…’
“I understand. I lost.” Cecilia flashed him a soft smile, then looked upon him with endearing eyes.
“Miss Everheart is an amazing person, and I can tell that she really loves you. I wish only the best foryou both. I admit defeat now.”
“Alright, it’s fine, I’m fine. You should leave now. If you stay here any longer, others might reallymisunderstand…”
“Really?”
“Really!”novelbin
“And about the wedding…”
“The wedding will go as planned.” Cecilia shrugged, still smiling. “I’m not a little kid anymore. I justneeded to let out some steam. I still have responsibilities../ “Chris might not love me, but he treats mewell. I think I’m considered luckier than most to be able to marry him. I’ll definitely cherish him.” “Good.”
