The intensity of Mark’s gaze dug deep into her. It stared through her soul, consuming her whole. His tone of voice was low, but humble and pleading.He was wearing a dark-colored suit over a white shirt and a silver-gray tie at the neckline. The extravagance that radiated from him was extremely elegant, and it was in stark contrast to his imploring words. He was not the kind of person who’d lower his voice.But when it came to love, who would not be humble?Her heart was trembling and beating fast, but the words that came out were still the same. “Mark, you cannot act this way anymore. We can’t do this anymore.”“No matter what, as long as you say it, I will make it happen. Summer, I'm not kidding...”Mark’s words could not have been more serious; even his sunken eyes became deeper. His seriousness made people feel a little flustered.Summer's heart was messed up, panicked, moved, and even, just a little bit, she might impulsively say yes to him. She was terribly frightened of hi
As his voice trailed off, Mark walked out of the room. He politely closed the door behind him despite his arrogance and indifference.The room went completely silent. Summer’s breath was floating and flowing in the air, so lonely and thin.Her heart was filled with emptiness. Her eyes could not help but become teary. Tears flushed out of her eyes and ran down her cheeks like a dam flooding its banks as soon as her sensitive nerve was touched.As of this moment, their relationship had finally come to an end!Summer began to sob, and her tears fell rustlingly, ruining all the makeup, but she didn't care about it. She tucked her head between her legs and let it be.However, the door was wide open again without her knowing, and Mark walked in. He squatted and approached her, his distinct fingers touching her soaked face, wiping away the tears. "Why are you crying so sadly? Didn’t I promise to let you go..." said the man in a very low voice.Her body stiffened because she had never ex
“I’m your man. I’m the father of your child. No matter how heavy the storm is, I will safeguard you from it. I will take care of all the mess, and you only just have to stay in my arms,” said Mark.Summer's chest was panting hard, she was still breathing heavily. His warmth was enough to stir all the strong feelings in her heart. Her heart was pounding loudly, she wanted to speak, but she seemed to hold back.She bit her lips deeply. She sat there, her hands tightened as she was struggling violently in her heart.His gaze fell heavily on her lips. At the moment, there were two deep biting marks on her lips which were as delicate as petals of the flower. His big hand lifted her chin. “I don’t like you biting your lips. I will deal with your parents, leave them with me. Dean will gradually recover once he feels his legs again. On top of that, let me know if you have any other concerns. I will deal with all of it as well," said Mark.As Summer was staring at him, she felt as if someth
Mark could not do anything with her and frowned again. “The sight of your wedding dress is absolutely an eyesore, go and change into something else.”She burst into tears and laughed merrily, with tears falling from the corners of her eyes. Mark gently pinched her earlobe and hummed slightly. “Crying and laughing, you are just like a wimp.”“You’re the wimp.” She retorted hotly, her cheeks flushed, and her words were a little bit irritable. She naturally turned her back to him. “Gently pull the zipper down for me.”Mark placed his gentle hand on the zipper and gently pulled it down. Summer’s smooth and white back caught his sight. His eyes sunk into the sight of it. Then, she ran into the dressing room quickly. When she came out again, she had put on a simple long skirt.Mark’s big hand slipped and clasped her slender fingers. The two walked out of the villa side by side and sat in a black Bentley.His big palm is thick and warm. Unlike hers, small and thin. As if it could be brok
“Mom, I––”Mark squeezed her palm. He didn’t wait for Summer to finish her sentence and interrupted her words directly. “Mrs. Hart, the solely responsible person for this matter, is me, and it has nothing to do with Summer.”“I'm talking to my daughter, and it is none of your business!” Daisy scolded bluntly, “Plus, we do not welcome strangers to our home, so you may leave!”“I am not a stranger. I am the love of her life. I told her to defy your wishes. You can resent me with all you want, and I shall bear with it.” His attitude is neither humble nor arrogant.Hearing this, Daisy sneered, “Who would dare to express their anger on you–the eldest son of Valentines–so please leave now!”Dean, who hadn't said anything, finally opened his mouth. "Mrs. Hart."Daisy's breath slowed down and she panted for a while. Then she stared directly at Summer. "Do you still have feelings for him in your heart?"Summer trembled, and her lips were a little dry. Mark stretched out his arms and hung
Dean drank a cup of coffee. It was light and bitter, just like his mood at this moment. “Since I can feel my legs a little bit more these days, so I will be getting treatment at Athana.”Summer's eyes lit up in an instant, and for a moment, she had turned into an excited child who just got a candy. “Really?”“Yes.” It's been a long time since Dean saw Summer as a docile woman. Now, with the loved one by her side, it is indeed different. After all, he failed to change her, but Mark was capable of doing it easily. He had to admit defeat. "I will be flying to Athana the day after tomorrow, and the ticket has already been bought.""I will come along with you," Summer said.Suddenly, Mark's face darkened. "What are you going to do there?""I want to hear it myself from the doctor to say that his leg can be cured, and I have to take care of him until he is recovered." This is what she could do for Dean."The doctors will be recording his progress in Athana. After that, you can hear it
Squeezing the palm of his hands, Summer frowned, “Don’t be a burden. I’ll just go on my own. Even if you followed, there’s nothing much for you to help with.” Hearing this, Mark was a little upset. ‘Why does her tone sound like she is annoyed by my presence?’ “I can push the wheelchair…” He squinted at her. Summer was speechless. Her brows instinctively twitched. ‘Push the wheelchair? Anyone can do that, even Charlotte who is three years old can do it. What’s there for him to be proud of?’ After a while, Dean made his leave. Prior to this, Mark had already prepared a caregiver to take care of his daily needs and travel. Thinking about Daisy and Solomon, Summer felt a little worried, “You should go get busy for the day. I need to go home first. The house is in a mess, I have to clean up.” “You’re in a hurry to kick me out already?” Raising his eyebrows, he seemed a little unhappy. “It’s not that. You’ve already seen how messy the house is. Let’s just call it a day. I’ll ca
“Whatever that has happened four years ago was partly your fault, but also partly mine.” Four years ago, both were in the wrong. At that time, the person that he loved was Raine. So naturally, the scale would lean towards Raine. No matter when or what was going, the first person that came to his mind was Raine. Looking from his position, it was considered normal. Her mistake was that she was too rational and stubborn. So in the end, she could not express her innermost feelings. Looking at her gently, he held her in his embrace. Resting his chin on her delicately fragrant hair, he sighed lightly, “Don’t blame yourself. I was the one who was stupid that I didn’t realize my true feelings earlier at that time.” “Come on, I’ll send you home,” Mark hugged her a little tighter. Lowering his lips, he left a kiss on the side of her sensitive earlobes. Walking into the apartment lobby, he stopped and hugged her slender waist with his tough arms. Looking at her deeply, he sighed, “I rea
