Chapter 434 I Want to Have a Good Life with You
The Way family were satisfied with Oca in terms of his family, his character and his ability.
If Oca and Hazel could get married, then it would be a strong union. The Way family's business in the overseas market could do more smoothly.
In general, marriage was not just about two people. It was a win-win situation for both parties.
What mattered the most for businessmen was profit.
Oca and Hazel would not have gone to the Way family for an official announcement if they did not want to develop a long-term and stable relationship.
Nora walked in the courtyard. Looking at the green trees and flowers, she was upset and irritated.
She clearly loved Oscar. But why was she attracted by him when Oca appeared?
She tried to control herself, only to find that the more she controlled herself the deeper her inner yearning for him grew.
"Are you okay?" Alan looked at Nora who had a pale face and frowned, asking in concern.
"I feel better." Nora stopped her scattered thoughts, "Thank you."
Alan stared at her for a minute.
Nora became a little awkward with his look, "Is there something on my face? Why do you look at me like that?"
Alan held her shoulders and looked very serious, "Nora, I am sorry that I lost my temper and left you alone that day. Please don't be angry with me. Drink less in the future. Drinking hurts your health, and I will worry about you."
Nora met Alan's eyes and felt a little awkward as she listened to his gentle apology.
But recently, Alan had stopped confronting her as he used to. More often than not, he was the one giving in and apologizing.
Nora didn't make a concession at all, and kept distance from him.
"I am not used to you talking like that today." Nora smiled lightly, "Are you on the wrong medication, or what's wrong with you?"
"Nora, I'm telling you the truth." Alan took a deep breath, "I reflected on myself after calming down. There are a lot of things I haven't done well enough."
"You ... you actually did a good job." Nora felt a little guilty inside, "At least, you are doing better than me. It is me who has been doing badly."
"Nora, no matter what you think of our marriage, now that we are married, I will do my duty as a husband. I will love you, protect you, stand in front of you to stop all the difficulties for you." Alan took her hand, his eyes full of love.
"Alan..." Nora was shocked by such a serious Alan.
"I will still respect all your decisions. But I want to live a good life with you for a long time." Alan spoke out his desire longingly, "Nora, I... I actually like you..."
She was confessed by Alan?!
Nora widened her beautiful eyes, slightly opened her mouth, and couldn't believe it.
Alan liked her. When? Why she didn't feel anything at all?
"Don't you believe me?" Alan saw Nora's surprised face. He raised his right hand anxiously to swear, "I can swear. I, Alan, love Nora. If there is a lie, I will be..."
Nora reached out and covered his mouth to stop him, "Don't do that."
"Then do you believe me?" Alan pulled her hand down.
"It's not that I don't believe you. I just find it unbelievable." Nora felt she had to hang fire.
She had been confessed to since she was a child. Nora had heard too many words like "I like you, I love you".
Only when Oscar said he loved her, she felt her heart beating wildly because of his confession.
But Alan's confession ... how shall she put it? She was not too moved and was not without feeling. But this feeling seemed different.
In short, she couldn't figure it out.
"And don't you have several girlfriends before? How... how would you love me?" Nora still remembered his several ex-girlfriends.
"Nora, I'll be honest with you. In fact, the reason I married you is not entirely because of the interests of the two families. It was you, so I agreed to the marriage and the prenuptial agreement. I had intended to marry you first and let you become my wife, and then slowly let you fall in love with me.
But you always mentioned the prenuptial agreement and had no feeling to me. I felt upset. I didn't want you to know that I fell in love with you first and wanted to fight with you.
I followed my friend's advice and made girlfriends outside to test your reaction. So, I didn't like those girls at all. I have nothing to do with them. I paid them to pretend to be my girlfriend. We just had a
meal or a coffee to make a show to you and stimulate you. I promise I had absolutely no affair with them."
Alan was a little nervous while saying that. He was afraid that Nora would misunderstand him, and desperately explained. It looked a little ridiculous.
"After these things, I faced my heart and wanted to be brave enough to admit my feelings to you. As a man, there's no shame in me expressing my feelings first. But Nora, I hope you can get to know me again and give me a chance to love you. Nora, I want to be a good husband."
He finally said what he had bitten back for a long time. The mountain in his heart seemed to disappear. Alan was relaxed and at ease.
Nora pursed her lips, not knowing how to answer, so that she could take the right measure and not hurt Alan's passionate heart.
Thinking about the five years they had been together, Alan had been good to her and had actually kept his promise.
He also protected her in public and in the Way family, and did not allow others to bully her.
Especially when the elders of the Way family asked her to have a child, Alan didn't want to force her and tried his best to protect her against the pressure from his family.
It was quite well for a man to do this. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
If he didn't love her, how could he do this?
Seeing that Nora was hesitating, Alan did not force her to answer right now, "Nora, you do not have to answer me now. You can think about it, or see how I behave before answering me. I also don't want to be rejected by you so quickly. Of course I am confident to let you know that I am sincere."
Seeing him say that, Nora nodded, "OK. I'll think about it then."
She looked into his sincere eyes and pondered whether she should let go as Rose had said.
She could miss Oscar. But she shouldn't bury herself for him and become the living dead.
