My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1420

While evacuating, Vanessa had accidentally sprained her ankle. Julien picked her up and carried her on his back. She gently rubbed her face against his back and said, "Julien..."

Julien was carrying her on his back but his footsteps were still as light as before. "I'm here. You'll be fine."

"That's not what I'm going to say." Because their clothes were sodden, Vanessa felt that she was almost naked in front of him. But because it was him, not only did she not feel embarrassed, she even clung more tightly to him. "I don't want you to only be my boyfriend anymore, I want you to marry me and be my husband. I want to be with you for the rest of my life."

It was said that greed was the precipitating end of mankind. Vanessa thought she was a perfect example. In the past, she had decided to go after Julien because she thought that he was quite a decent guy, and she wanted him to become her boyfriend.

The longer she dated him, the more she had realized his merits. Gradually, she was not satisfied with him being only her boyfriend. She wanted him to marry her. She wanted to enjoy the gentleness he had given her, and to be with him for the rest of her life.

Upon hearing Vanessa's words, Julien's long legs stiffed. Then, he said, "You're a lady, you should act like a lady."

Vanessa pouted her lips. "But I can't control myself in front of you."

What Vanessa said was true. If she had not controlled herself, she would have pounced on him already. Julien really had no idea how much she had held herself back.

Upon hearing Vanessa's confession, despite the dire condition they were in, Julien still couldn't help but smile. However, he didn't answer her.

When she did not receive his reply, and also could not see his expression, Vanessa thought that he was unwilling to marry her. At that instant, she felt an immense dejection, and uttered, "Julien, don't you want to marry me? Don't you want me to be your wife?"

How could he not want it? From the day Julien started dating her, he had been thinking of marrying her. However, he had his own plans in regard to the proposal. He wanted to give her a surprise.

Thus, instead of answering her directly, Julien tried to beat around the bush. "You should act more like a lady. I hope that you won't let me repeat this again."

"Julien, given your background, why are you this conservative? Who said that girls can't take the first step?" Vanessa raised her fist and punched Julien twice. She said aggrievedly, "Everyone has the right to pursue love. I like you. If I want to marry you, of course, I have to tell you. If I don't tell you, what if someone else steals you away from me?"

"That won't happen!" Although Julien was on top of the world, he had only given her a simple answer.

Julien didn't give Vanessa a direct answer, which made her feel sad. "An outstanding man like you may not look for other girls, but you can't stop them from throwing themselves on you."

Julien replied, "I won't let that happen!"

Other than her, he would not allow any other women to throw themselves at him.

Julien was still not answering her question, so Vanessa had no choice but to emphasise once again, "Julien, I like you. I really like you. I hope you can remember this. No matter what, you're not allowed to break up with me, and you're not allowed to fall in love with anyone else."

Julien nodded. "Okay."

Vanessa said, "Julien, why are you so slow? Do you not know that when I say that I like you, you should also say that you like me."

He said, "Vanessa, I like you..."
