Her aloofness and indifference revealed a hint of disappointnt on Dustin Hughes’ face.
"Sumr, are you still mad at ?" Looking at her indifferent face, his heart suddenly ached faintly.
In the past, whenever she saw him, she was always cheerful, treating him as soone close and sharing everything with him.
But now... she wouldn’t even look him in the eye.
Was it because he insisted on marrying her off to Noah Drexler, hurting her too deeply...?
He could understand her thoughts. After The Shawcross Family went bankrupt, without her parents around, she regarded him as a family mber she could rely on, yet he heartlessly made her marry soone she didn’t love.
For the first ti, he doubted his actions, and for the first ti, he felt as if he were an executioner, delivering her to the devil’s side.
He had thought he could be ruthless enough to not care about anything.
But now... he regretted it!
"You’re overthinking it; didn’t I say before, I’m not mad at all." Sumr Shawcross sighed helplessly. How many tis does she have to explain to him?
If it weren’t for being sowhat wary of Dustin Hughes and wanting to figure out so things about him, she wouldn’t want to spend another second with him!
Hearing Sumr Shawcross say this, Dustin Hughes only thought she was saying it out of anger and seriously explained to her.
"Sumr, don’t be afraid. I will make sure you can leave his side smoothly."
He was already making arrangents, believing that soon soone could take her place beside Noah Drexler, and she could leave that man successfully.
Upon hearing Dustin Hughes’ words, Sumr Shawcross was montarily stunned and imdiately beca alert.
Wasn’t he previously just thinking of her working by Noah Drexler’s side, using her until death?
Why now, suddenly, is he kindly offering to help her leave Noah Drexler?
Sumr Shawcross guessed Dustin Hughes must be plotting so sche to harm her and her husband!
Thinking this, she quickly put on a serious expression and assured Dustin Hughes.
"No need, you don’t have to go to so much trouble. I feel capable of handling this task, really!"
"It’s too dangerous to keep you by that kind of man’s side." Dustin Hughes shook his head with a worried look.
That man is too daunting, not sothing a pure girl like her could handle.
Previously, he was confused, montarily failing to see his own heart, which led him to make that mistake.
But that day, when he saw her lonely silhouette leaving in the video store, he suddenly ca to his senses...
So now, he wants to make up for everything.
...
"That kind of man..." Hearing Dustin Hughes use such a term to describe Noah Drexler, Sumr Shawcross couldn’t help but feel a bit angry.
"But I don’t feel I’m in any danger right now. Are you doubting my capability?" She looked up at Dustin Hughes, displeased.
Upon hearing this, Dustin Hughes’ face showed signs of tension, and he explained to her sowhat forcefully.
"That’s because you don’t know his true nature. Do you really think an ordinary person can stand in his position at his age? Sumr, he’s really dangerous. You must leave him, I..." At this point, his expression paused for a mont before continuing.
"I can’t risk you!"
How terrifying Noah Drexler is, she doesn’t know, but he does!
A man ruthless enough to harm even himself for power, how could he be kind to her!
