Chapter 995 - 1034: I Can Let Him Go
Mabel Quinn didn’t eat much before stopping.
"What’s wrong, can’t eat?" he asked.
"No appetite, and I don’t feel very hungry either." She lightly bit her lip and replied.
"Eat a bit more, we still have to go to the jewelry store today to pick out some jewelry to match with the wedding dress you’ll be wearing." he said.
"Got it," she responded, forcing herself to continue eating the food in front of her, which felt almost mechanical to her. Suddenly, she felt a wave of discomfort in her stomach, a sense of nausea welling up.
Mabel hurriedly covered her mouth and rushed towards the restroom, where she began to vomit at the sink.
After quite a while, she finally stopped, giving a bitter smile. But when she lifted her head and looked at herself in the mirror, she was startled to see Kyle Kinston standing quietly by the restroom door, gazing fixedly at her.
"Kyle!" she exclaimed, sniffing sharply, her eyes moist and tears seemingly on the verge of falling.
"Are you feeling this bad?" He walked up to her and asked, "Is Conley Family’s matter really so hard for you to let go? Is Alice Conley really that important to you?"
"I..." She paused, taking a deep breath, and after a long moment said, "Alice... is my best friend, so maybe it’s really not easy for me to let go, maybe it takes a long time, maybe..." She’ll carry the guilt for a lifetime.
Even though she didn’t finish her sentence, he knew what she left unsaid.
"If I don’t let the Conley Family off, will you never be happy even if you marry me?" He asked softly, eyes fixed intensely on her.
"I don’t know." She lowered her head, her eyelids drooping lightly, eyelashes glistening with moisture. "I love you, and I understand why you hate Alice’s father, so I can’t say anything, but... I don’t know how to face Alice, I’m even a bit scared to go back to J City, afraid of everything there... I..."
Large tears rolled down her cheeks again, her tears once more making him restless and distressed.
"I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to cry." She hurriedly raised her hand, wiping off her tears haphazardly.
But somehow, the more she wiped, the more tears fell, seemingly endless.
His gaze was fixed tightly on her, suddenly grabbing her hands that were wiping away tears, and softly exclaimed, "Is it if I let Adrian Conley off, let the Conley Family off, you wouldn’t cry like this anymore?"
"Huh?" She looked up, staring at him in a daze, almost unable to believe what he had just said, "You say... you’re willing to let Alice’s father off?" Her voice trembled.
His eyes were a dark abyss, yet seemed to hold so much inner conflict and struggle. He looked at her, and after a long moment, sighed and said, "Yes, I’m willing to let him off, as long as he never appears before me again, I won’t go over his matters anymore, will that be alright?"
As long as she wouldn’t cry, as long as she could be happy, he was willing to compromise, willing to let go of his grievances, willing to do everything possible to please her.
Simply because... that’s how much he loves her!
Mabel’s eyes widened, "Really?"
