Chapter 1017
I was really scared, scared that I always thought I was going to be happy, but reality always unexpectedly gave me a heavy blow.
Reynaldo gently stroked my back and whispered, “All along, I have been chasing after you, it was me who was entangling you, including at the beginning, it was me who used some means to keep you by my side.”
I have always been afraid of losing you, while you never took me seriously.
So how could it be me who left you, ignored you, if anyone were to leave, it should be you leaving me, ignoring me.
It seems that in dreams, things happen in reverse.
“Is it really… coming backwards?”
I mumbled, with memories of our past flooding my mind.
There was initial disgust, there was joy and disappointment in the middle, and then there was bitterness and pain later on.
I looked at him, and a mist of water still rose uncontrollably in front of

I choked up as I said to him, “Anyway, you promised me that from now on, no matter what happens, you won’t drive me away again.”
Reynaldo’s eyes stung, and a touch of heartache flashed between his eyebrows.

“I’m sorry,” he said to me, “the thing I regret the most is kicking you out of Freybourne in the first place.”
I asked Vonnie about the situation when you gave birth back then. If something had happened to you at that time, I think I wouldn’t have been able to live alone.
Yes, the moment Essic and Roddy were born, my heart was filled with fear and helplessness.
Looking back now, there was a wave of fear in my heart.

I shook my head and said sadly, “I don’t know what I’m afraid of. I just woke up from a nightmare and felt so anxious when I didn’t see you.”
“Fool.” Reynaldo rubbed my hair and smiled helplessly, “I just got up to take care of some business, you know, I won’t leave you behind, I can’t bear to leave you behind.”
“I know,” I murmured softly, feeling very low at that moment.

I stared blankly at the affection in his eyes, and at that moment, my heart was still touched.
I found his hand and held his ten fingers, saying to him, “If you dare to drive me away again, I will completely disappear from your world, so you will never find me in your lifetime.”
The man’s hand tightened slightly, holding my hand firmly in his palm.
He said in a deep voice, “I won’t, no matter what happens, I will never let go of your hand again.”
