The place she lives in is Royal View City. If Brother Langdon were to take her ho...
"Ariel," Langdon Seal looked at her, "About what I said today..."
Ariel Morris interrupted him, her heart racing, "I know Brother Langdon was joking, I won’t take it to heart."
Langdon Seal looked at her, his thin lips pressed tightly together, his voice sowhat deep, "I’m serious."
Ariel Morris froze, staring at him in disbelief.
Could Brother Langdon an-----he likes her? How is that possible!!
Langdon Seal feared she wouldn’t believe him, so he spoke slowly again: "Eight years ago at the Dublin airport, I was fortunate it was who saved you, spending eight years by your side."
"I know you like Arlo Seys, and you’ve been unable to forget him for eight years. I won’t make things difficult for you; I’ll just protect and watch over you quietly, as long as you’re happy."
"Ariel, if one day you and Arlo Seys are no longer together, could you give a chance? Let protect you?"
"Ariel, one goes through countless encounters in life, but there is only one person who truly moves your heart. And you are that person for ."
"I’ve silently loved you for eight years, never confessing, fearing you would distance yourself from . I don’t want my feelings to push you away, to estrange us, so I’ve hidden my love for you all these years."
Langdon Seal’s words echoed in Ariel Morris’s mind, leaving her heart unsettled for a long ti. She had always treated Langdon Seal as a good friend, just as she did with Brother Dawn and others, as pure camaraderie, never considering romantic feelings.
But now, Brother Langdon suddenly told her he has loved her for eight years----how long and painful those eight years must have been, she deeply understood! So hearing Langdon Seal’s words indeed stirred her heart considerably, leaving her standing in place, dumbfounded.
"The bracelet I gave you was the first thing I ever gifted a girl, so, Ariel, about liking you, please don’t doubt it."
Ariel Morris felt a bit dazed, looking at Langdon Seal with embarrassnt on her face, "But----Brother Langdon, don’t you have a fiancée? Once you find your fiancée....."
"Even if I find her, I won’t marry her! It’s a childhood betrothal arranged by my mom, not what I wish for in my heart. We’ve never t, I will not marry a stranger."
Ariel Morris stood in place, pressing her lips together, "Brother Langdon, I like Arlo.... If not for certain things happening back then, I wouldn’t have left him, nor gone to Dublin."
Langdon Seal gave a bitter laugh, "I know, but isn’t it precisely fate? You parted ways with him, fell at the Dublin airport, and I saved you. That’s how our fate began."
Ariel Morris paused, speaking solemnly, "I’m sorry, Brother Langdon, I won’t leave Arlo, nor will I love anyone else besides him. I know my words are harsh, but I must make it clear, you’re soone I don’t want to hurt. Without your care in Dublin, I might not have survived. If there’s anyone in this world I’m indebted to, Brother Langdon, you are the first. But----but Arlo is my greatest love, the first and the last."
"If Arlo Seys and I t you at the sa ti, would you have fallen for ?" There was a hint of hurt in Langdon Seal’s eyes.
Ariel Morris looked at him, slowly saying, "In this world there are no ’ifs,’ Brother Langdon. From the mont I t Arlo at the school entrance when I was sixteen, my life, my heart, my mind could fit no one else. No one can understand the breathtaking mont he turned his gaze towards . Emotions are unreasonably tyrannical. His casual glance back intruded into my world, leaving captivated and making it impossible for to forget for a lifeti."
