Looking at James like that, Elizabeth only felt that he was so confused and helpless. She couldn't see his expression at this time because of his posture, but she could clearly feel his sadness and pain.
He was just like a person struggling in the swamp and trying to get a chance to live. He was desperate, but also longing to be saved.
She felt bitter and painful in her heart as if her heart was being gripped tightly by something.
"No." She suppressed the bitterness in her heart and said softly with a smile, "You are very good. There is no one better than you in this world."
If it weren't for him, she didn't know what kind of a life she would be living.
If she didn't meet him, she might have already lost her ability to love because of so much disappointment in life.
Hearing this, James's hand on his face trembled slightly, and then he smiled, "Really? If I was really as good as you said, I wouldn't... have treated you like that just now." He wouldn't have also treated Xavier like that.
When he heard what Xavier said on the mountain, he was naturally dissatisfied and angry. But what could he do? He couldn't scold or beat Xavier, because... Xavier's life had changed dramatically because of him. He really owed Xavier. When he heard she said that Xavier did not tell her about that matter, he was relieved. But Xavier had come back, and that matter which he had deliberately forgotten reminded him of his mistake so clearly.
He did not know what to do. The guilt and selfblame once again lingered in his heart.
He was afraid that... she would care too much about Xavier because of his past, and he was also afraid that she would leave him without hesitation when she knew what he had done one day.
He had just realized his own heart and got married to his beloved woman. How could he be willing to lose her?
Therefore, when he heard what she said, he was really panicked and confused. That was why he ignored her will and feelings ruthlessly and did such a despicable thing to her.
He., forced her to have sex with him.
However, it was so ironic. Not only did she not blame him, but she also said that he was a good man.
Good man? Was he a good man?
If she could scold him or slap him angrily at this time, he might feel better. When he looked at her frightened face that was full of tears, and when she asked him what was wrong with him, he couldn't say anything. If she knew that, she would feel disappointed in him and despise him, right?
He had done something wrong, but why did Elizabeth and Xavier choose to forgive him? "You have something on your mind, so I don't blame you." Although Elizabeth was really panicky and scared at that time, she really didn't blame him.
Elizabeth quickly put on her clothes and moved closer to him.
Staring at him for a while, she tried to hold his hand. Seeing that he did not mean to push her away, she wanted to pull his hand down.
James used some strength and didn't let her push his hand. She sighed softly and said, "Let me see your face."
He slapped himself viciously just now. She wanted to see if his face was all right.
"It's okay." He said softly, "I deserve it."
Elizabeth pursed her lips and used more strength. Finally, she pushed away his hand.
