“I think it’s safe to say that you know what I’m going to tell you, Andreas. Did you say what you said to run away from the truth?” Bonnie had all but seen through his thought.
Andreas’s eyes shifted uneasily, not daring to meet her gaze.
“T-That’s not the case.”
Shaking her head, she said, “You say that, but what I said is true. You’re trying to run away from the truth.”
“U-Um…” He was about to say something, but he just couldn’t think of anything to say.
In the end, he decided he’d remain quiet. He lowered his head slowly.
‘She’s right. I’m trying to run away from the truth. I don’t want to deal with this if I can, actually. As far as I’m concerned, Bonnie is my future princess, and we’re going to spend the rest of our lives together.
‘However, his would-be princess is someone else’s fiancé. How am I supposed to accept something like this?’
“Listen to me, Andreas. You might be able to run away from the truth for a little while, but you can’t do it forever. At the end of the day, you have to face it. Do you think I’m right?”
‘He’s a simple-minded man. I don’t want to hurt him, either. However, I have to make it clear when it comes to relationships. Otherwise, I’ll definitely lose him as a friend.’
He heard what she said and decided to muster up his courage. Then, he lifted his head slowly and looked at her.
He was about to say something, but he caught the Maybach from the corner of his eyes. Just like that, the courage he mustered up vanished into thin air.
She noticed that and suggested, “Let’s talk in the gazebo instead.”
Nodding, he said, “Alright.”
Once they arrived at the gazebo, Andreas glanced at her.
