Our Love Story: Hard to Guard Against the Sudden Love Strike Chapter 496 - 473: A Lifelong Commitment (Part 2)

"But you told before that you were too busy to find a partner..."

"Don’t all eligible bachelors say that?" Simon Forrester laughed. "Who’d specifically analyze their emotional world, especially n?"

"But am I ’others’? So you chose to keep it a secret from too?"

Noticing her slight emotion, Simon quickly kissed her to change the topic: "So, don’t you want to know why I said that on the plane back from Norport?"

Sienna Thornton was a bit dazed by his kiss: "Which sentence?"

"A narrow definition of family can also be composed of people with no blood ties."

Sienna returned to her senses: "Oh right, why did you say that at the ti?"

"Because I was seriously considering marrying you and starting a family."

"Huh?" Sienna was shocked, pointing to herself, then to him, "With ? We had only known each other for over a month then. You said you liked at that ti, and I already felt it was a bit fast."

Simon laughed heartily, pinching her cheek: "Considering. Do you know what considering ans?"

Sienna: ???

"It ans it might not happen."

Sienna: "..."

Seeing her speechless, Simon kissed her again and said: "Okay, okay, not teasing you anymore, speaking seriously."

Sienna rolled her eyes at him: "Then go ahead and say it."

"I can be blunt sotis, hard to get along with. Call it personality, or pride, if you prefer."

"Oh, you actually know it yourself?"

Simon chuckled: "Of course I know. So if you can get along with soone like for a month, I think a lifeti shouldn’t be a problem."

Sienna covered her face: "So this is the significance of my entering your life – to bear your sharp tongue, bluntness, pride, and that mysterious superiority from the Qing era noble lineage... thinking this way, it’s true, who could endure all these except for ?"

"Hmm?" Simon pinched the flesh on her waist and moved closer, "Are you saying you’ve been enduring all this ti?"

Sienna still covered her face: "I think, maybe I have a bit of a masochistic trait..."

The ’S-type’ man continued to lean closer, pried her hands away, forced her to look directly at him, and teasingly asked: "And you? On the night in Norport, why did you let , hmm?"

The ’M-type’ woman covered her face again: "Because you’re so handso..."

Simon pinched her face: "Then why did you avoid it?"

After a mont, Sienna finally recalled her feelings from that ti: "...afraid of becoming your XX."

She still rembers her feelings from back then, including how she frequently called Maeve to vent that Simon seed to want to seduce her into being an XX.

"The first kiss was accidental and unintentional, so no one’s fault. But the next day, not only did you wipe the cream from my lips in front of your subordinates, but also asked if I wanted to move back into your room. You hadn’t even confessed to or asked if I’d like to be your girlfriend, so those hints made feel it was just that kind of thought..."

Reflecting on sothing from over three years ago, Simon felt as if it happened yesterday; the mory was so vivid, almost carrying their shared warmth.

This was his first ti thinking from Sienna’s perspective about that incident, realizing his handling indeed fell short at the ti; her misunderstanding was understandable.

Thinking he almost lost her then, he felt sentintal inside, held her tight, and tenderly asked: "Don’t you want to know what happened the morning after in Norport?"

...

...

...

Only then did Sienna realize she had never asked about the morning after, not having thought deeply about it.

She only rembers waking up very late that morning, almost until noon, because of all the mixed emotions from the previous night causing her to sleep poorly and eventually wake late.

And when she did wake up, her body felt fine, she slept well, and Simon surely didn’t do anything to her, else she would have awoken in shock.

So she always thought they just shared a bed that night, sleeping separately, and of course, Simon went to work the next morning.

But now listening to Simon, it seems that’s not the case?

While she was frowning and pondering, Simon already started talking.

"Every ti I visit Norport, I run on the beach in the morning. But the day after kissing you, I didn’t run. That morning, I woke up very early, and you were asleep in my arms, sleeping soundly. Suddenly, I didn’t want to get up to run but wanted to hold you, really think about our future."
