I never thought Queenie would feel inferior due to her failed relationship and abortion. The reason she rejected Andrew was most likely her fear of his prestigious family.
Flynn, who cfrom a prestigious family, hurt her so thoroughly. Andrew’s family background was far higher than that of the Hayes family. She might think that as the daughter of an ordinary family, she couldn’t integrate into his.
Overall, she lacked confidence in her future with Andrew. She’d been dating Flynn for five years, but things had ended horribly. Not to mention Andrew, who was three years younger than her and from a wealthier family.
She appeared soft yet was firm. Ever since she cout of her relationship with Flynn, she had closed herself off.
She didn’t want to get hurt again, so she didn’t dare to start a new relationship.
Andrew stroked her hair helplessly. He smiled lovingly and told her to forget about persuading him. It was his business to pursue her anyway. She was only responsible for enjoying it. As for what the future held, she should wait and see. He would never let her down. Ads by PubFuture
He was the second man I’d heard similar promises from. The first man was Colin.
The conversation in the kitchen ended. To avoid disturbing them, I had to leave quietly despite the stinging numbness in my legs.
This night could be regarded as my small reunion with Colin. He was probably exhausted. After taking a shower, he only kissed my forehead and huggedbefore falling asleep.
The temperature was slightly low at midnight. I awoke from the cold and reached out to grasp the quilt, only to discover that Colin wasn’t beside me.
I wanted to go out to find him, but I noticed light coming through the bathroom door crack.
I walked over and found him sitting on the toilet seat. He held a half-burned cigarette with his eyes closed. As the light was too dim, I couldn’t tell whether he appeared lonely or irritable. Ads by PubFuture
I accidentally touched the door handle and opened the bathroom door.
Colin was taken aback when he sawin a suspender nightgown with my bare feet in the dim light.
He swiftly restrained his emotion et and stubbed out the cigarette. He then walked over to scoopup, left the bathroom, and placedon the bed.
He grabbed my soles and asked unhappily, “Why don’t you wear slippers? What if you get a col.ne have stomach cramps again?” When the weather turned colder, I would experience excruciating discomfort throughout my period. After Colin found out about it, he paid close attention to keepingwarm.
Yet, my attention was on his thoughts rather than on my soles.
“Did you get into any trouble?” I asked, tugging at his sleeve.
He paused for a moment before swiftly continuing to massage my soles to warm them up ‘NG, I didn’t. I just wanted to smoke.” “You should smoke less. That’s not good for your health.” The content is on wa novelenglish.net! “I got it. Be good, baby. Let’s return to sleep. You have class tomorrow morning.”
“Okay. But you have to letknow if you have any problems. Whatever e happens, always be by your side.” “Okay.” Colin huggedand lay down again, caressing my cheek and coaxingto sleep.
I sniffed his faint smell of tobacco and remained awake when he fell asleep.
Colin probably experienced something that caused him OM difficulties. What might it be?
