Chapter 994 - 1033: His Inner Struggle
She was choking, sobbing softly, crying, almost out of breath. Even she herself didn’t know how long she had been crying until a figure opened the bathroom door and pulled her into an embrace, gently saying, "Don’t cry, Mabel, don’t cry!"
"Wuwuwu... I’m sorry... Alice... I’m sorry..." At this moment, she seemed to still be trapped in that dream, that fear, that conflict, that helplessness, feelings so complex that only crying could express them.
He looked down, staring blankly at the person crying in his arms, lifted her up, and walked back to the bed. Her tears made his heart ache and left him at a loss.
Even if she could avoid mentioning the Conley Family in front of him, it didn’t mean this matter was over for her. She said she would work hard to forget it, but how long would it take for her to truly forget?
She said she would marry him, that she would always stay by his side. Wasn’t this what he wanted most? But seeing her in such pain, his heart was restless and uneasy.
He knew perfectly well why she was crying, the reason behind her emotional breakdown, yet he... The scenes of his childhood flashed through his mind, the scene of his mother’s death, the scene of his father’s death... Each of these scenes was a pain in his heart.
"Stop crying!" he shouted lowly, not wanting to hear her sobs, not wanting to see her tear-streaked face, which only added to his pain.
"Wuwuwu... wuwu..." Her cries continued, her face covered in tears, with large droplets falling continuously, dripping onto his hand, burning his skin.
The next moment, his lips suddenly pressed against hers, silencing her cries, "Please, stop crying, I beg you, stop crying..."
He kissed her lips, kissed her tears, only wishing for her to stop crying.
Her tears seemed to be driving him insane.
Until she was too exhausted from crying and fell into a deep sleep, he looked at her sleeping face with a complicated expression. Gently wiping away the traces of her tears, his fingers brushed her brows and eyes, "What should I do with you? If I don’t go after Adrian Conley, will you never be happy in this life?"
But if he let Adrian Conley go, what would he do with all that hatred?

When Mabel Quinn woke up the next day, she felt her eyes were horribly swollen. She only remembered that after she entered the bathroom yesterday, she seemed to have been crying the whole time, and later Kyle Kinston carried her back to bed, but she just couldn’t stop crying. She kept crying, and then, in her memory, it seemed as if she was kissed... After that, her memory went blank.
Kyle Kinston was no longer in the room at that time, so Mabel Quinn washed up and went downstairs, where she saw Kyle Kinston in the dining room.
"Come, have some breakfast," he said.
"Mm." She sat down at the dining table, and a servant handed her breakfast.
"I’m sorry about last night," she said.
"It’s nothing, you just had a nightmare," he replied indifferently.
Yes, a nightmare, but even though she was awake today, that nightmare was still vividly imprinted in her mind, making her fear that it might become reality.
