Bumpkin’s Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 996

Lamia blinked her beautiful eyes and looked at the man sitting next to her bed. He had a handsome profile and a muscular chest, and he was the man she had been thinking about day and night. She clenched her fists, pressed her index fingers together, and lowered her head, lost in thought.

"I don't blame you. But would you be willing to marry me?" Lamia asked.

When they were drinking earlier, she had already learned that Hendrey didn't have a girlfriend or a wife.

"Marriage is a matter of mutual consent. This was just an accident. Miss Lamia, you don't need to gamble your happiness away for this accident. I will never marry someone who doesn't like me."

"I like you! I really like you!" She sat up nervously, explaining loudly.

Hendrey turned his head and looked at her with a gentle and refined expression. "There is a difference between liking and loving someone."

Lamia nodded. "I know. I don't just like you. I think... It should be love. After you saved me back then, I have been remembering you all these years and missing you. Is that love?"

Hendrey frowned and pondered for a moment. His serious expression showed a hint of coldness.

After a while, he nodded. "It should be."

"What about you? Do you like me?" she asked in return.

Hendrey's thin lips curled into a warm smile, and he leaned over her, pressing her under him and lightly kissing her lips. "If I didn't like you, how could you easily sway me with your seduction? There are many women who like me."

"Then… Do y-you want to marry me?" Lamia felt like she must be going crazy.

She had only met Hendrey once before, and now that she had seen him again, she wanted to marry him.

But her impulsive heart was telling her how much she liked him.

"We can try to get to know each other. If it works out, of course I would be willing to marry you."

"Really?"

Excited, she reached out and hugged Hendrey's neck, her bright eyes full of expectation.

She, a novice in love, was easily captured by his masterful technique, especially since she already liked him.

"Silly girl, why are you so naive?" He poked her head with his finger. "Aren't you afraid that I am a bad person who will deceive you?"
