I Only Want You novel Chapter 363

"No!" Elizabeth refused him directly.

"Why?" Xavier looked at her, "Can't you just... regard me as your friend and give me a hug?"

"No." Elizabeth looked at him, "You are James's cousin, and we're not friends."

Even if they were friends, how could she hug him in the wilderness? That was so weird and she couldn't imagine the consequences.

Hearing this, Xavier's eyes darkened, and he asked bitterly in a low voice, "Don't you think... we are friends?"

His sad tone made Elizabeth feel a little uncomfortable in heart. She thought for a while, "If you take back what you just said, maybe we can be friends..."

"I thought." Xavier closed his eyes, held back the tears in his eyes, and said with a self-deprecating smile, "We were friends."

Elizabeth didn't say anything more to him. In a panic, she raised the other hand and was about to push away his hand.

Finally, she got away successfully. She stood up and wanted to stay away from him.

But as soon as she turned around, Xavier's clear voice sounded again, "If we're not friends, what did you mean by saying those words to him just now?"

Elizabeth stopped because of his words. With her eyes full of surprise, she turned around and looked at Xavier, who was still sitting on the ground.

Xavier raised his head to look at her. Seeing her expression, he could guess what she was thinking. So he nodded gently, "Yeah.1' He put his fist against his lips and coughed a few times. However, he kept staring at her face, "I woke up when you asked him if he had ever considered my feelings."

No wonder Xavier looked at her with such a complicated expression in his eyes. It turned out that he had heard those words.

He chuckled and said, "Since you've heard what I said to him, you should know that it would be useless no matter what you said to him. Why did you say that?"

"I just..." Elizabeth said, staring at the quilt on his body, "I thought..."

Xavier also looked at the quilt, "Do you think that he still cares about me?" As he said this, he pulled away the quilt, "Even if he cares about me, I have been alone for so many years. Even if he apologizes to me, nothing will change. What's more, the quilt even needed to be warmed by my body temperature. How can my heart be warmed?"

When he was young, he was abandoned by his parents. At that time, he was scared, flustered, and helpless, but he kept waiting and hoping. However, every time, the reality would deal him a severe blow. When he had to accept reality, he realized that all his hopes and expectations were just his daydreams.

In the past few years, when he was cold and hungry, when he envied other people's warm family, and when he was so lonely that he thought he was the only one left in this world, where were they?

He had gone through the most difficult period. Since... he knew what his father was thinking, he would no longer hesitate and expect anything. Just as his father said just now, they would all die after so many years. Everyone would die and forget these things, and who would care about these feelings and resentments?

Hearing this, Elizabeth felt a dull pain in her heart. Seeing his forced smile, she felt guilty, I'm sorry..." She bit her lip and said, "I shouldn't have said that."

She said those words on impulse indeed, and she didn't know that he would wake up so quickly. Maybe she was doing this out of good intention, but his heart broke again when he heard the conversation between her and Tseten.

"I don't blame you." Xavier shook his head and looked at her with a smile, "I know you said that for my own good."
