I Only Want You novel Chapter 866

"No."

Hearing this, Elizabeth suddenly didn't know what to say.

If she was being unreasonable when she said that she didn't want to go home, at this time... she couldn't even say anything unreasonable.

After a long while, she looked at Xavier, who was restraining himself with a gloomy face, and nodded gently, "Alright."

"Then... let's go. I'll take you home."

Elizabeth pursed her lips "No, you go back first. I... can go back by myself later."

Xavier refused her, "When Jimmy called me yesterday, he told me that he had something to do today, so I must take you back. You are pregnant now, and I won't let you go home alone. I will be worried if I don't send you home personally."

When Elizabeth heard this, she had mix feelings in heart.

Obviously, Xavier was in a bad mood, but he spoke to her so patiently. She didn't know if it was because he was a gentleman or he was too kindhearted.

But no matter what the reason was, she was touched.

She smiled and said, "You worry about me too much. Look at me now. I can walk and eat well, and I'm very healthy. Moreover, many people still go to work after they get pregnant. They ride the subway and take buses everyday, and they're all right, aren't they?"

"You're different from them." Xavier pushed the cup in front of him, "Let's go."

"There's no need." Elizabeth shook her head with a smile, "I'm serious."

"But..."

"I have an appointment with my friend. She'll come soon."

Xavier didn't insist anymore, "Okay, go back early. I'll leave first."

"Wait a minute!" Seeing that Xavier was ready to get up, Elizabeth stopped him in a hurry.

"What's wrong?"

"Well..." Staring at Xavier, Elizabeth hesitated for a moment and said, "I know that your mood may be a bit complicated now. What I should do is to support all your decisions like a friend. I know... these."

"However, I had really thought about many things before I came to see you. Although I didn't expect you to say those words, I told you what my original intention was. We all hope that you could get better. I also thought about not telling you these things, as if I didn't go to see Zena and didn't know these things."

"But Zena said that she had your first painting, and she said that you liked it very much. Perhaps you don't even want to hear Zena's name now, and I understand you, but... Zena wishes you happiness. She has done something wrong and is now atoning for her sins, though you can't see her and don't want to see it. She can't compensate you now, so she wants to return those things to you."

"She also said that she hoped that you could forget her and start you new life, just like nothing had happened."

"She has done something wrong. She loves you in a wrong way and her mistake is unforgivable. But she... feels sad, too. Maybe you're disdainful when I tell you that she really loves you, but she wouldn't regret it if she didn't love you."

"Now, it's not appropriate for me to say anything else. I don't care how you feel about her, and I don't care what kind of feelings she has for you. But since I've promised her to tell you about it, I must tell you. As for whether you want to see those paintings or not, it's up to you, and I can't force you."

"Besides, even if you don't go to that house, and even if the landlord will take back the house and deal with your paintings, I won't help you deal with them. Those paintings are yours. It's your own decision whether you'll go to see them or not, and you should start your new life by yourself."

Xavier raised his head and looked at Elizabeth with brooding eyes. He moved his lips, but he did not say anything or nod.

Elizabeth sighed and didn't want to say anything else.
