My Second Husband novel Chapter 1187

Rachel stared blankly at Eddison.

She failed to understand his words. What did he mean by that?

"I liked Sierra because she treated me very well. However, she's not the person I want to protect and cherish. I've said before that I'll be by your side forever, and I'll always be there whenever you need me."

"But..."

Rachel asked eagerly, "When did you start to fall in love with me?"

Eddison pursed his lips, "I don't know either! It probably started when you helped me in Rosaville City, or perhaps when you waited for me to come back in the dark. Or, maybe when you said that you had never been found by others, and you were happy to be found by me."

She couldn't help complaining.

"Hey, the moments you mentioned don't sound like you fell in love with me at all!"

"Why not?"

"Love can't be that plain, right? Sierra has had some memorable moments with you, like a lifesaving event, whereas we don't have. I even got you into trouble the last time I tried to help you!"

To her, love should be intense and unforgettable.

Eddison could not help but laugh as he replied, "Well, life is rather tedious and wearisome in certain aspects. Sometimes, love is not necessarily about requesting something from your partner; feeling wanted might be a part of love, too. Knowing that you need me, I feel that my life is very fulfilling, and that I'm not a loser."

Rachel was astounded, "Of course you're not a loser."

He was the son of the Granger family and the future leader of the most prominent company in Rosaville City.

Since childhood, the media had been trying hard to pry into his life. It was just that he was well protected by his family, therefore he had been living life on the low down.

She hadn't expected him to say such words.

He smiled faintly, "Alright, can we go for dinner now? I'm hungry!"

Indeed, Sierra's call had disconcerted Rachel, but she managed to pull herself together after chatting with Eddison for a while.

Upon hearing that, she realized that he was no longer in the mood to talk about the matter.

Hence, she changed the subject.

"Don't think that the matter will be solved just like that. You must treat me to dinner for at least three days, or I won't go easy on you!"

"Okay, I'll be pleased to do it for a lifetime!"

Rachel grinned and turned her head away.

"What a sweet talker!"

At the same time, Sierra quickly got up and tidied her hair after she looked at the clock hanging on the wall.

"Mom, do I look okay?"

Dania handed her a slice of fruit while praising her.

"Certainly. You look fine no matter what."

"Mom, quit flattering me! I must be really pale right now."

Dania chuckled as she asked, "Eddison is coming, right? Do you like him?"

Sierra turned her head away.

"Not really. He isn't my type. I just don't want to lose such a friend."

Dania sighed and said, "I don't know how you think of him, but I think that he isn't a bad lad. Not only is he good- looking, but he's also considerate.

Additionally, if it weren't for him, you would have been doomed this time. Listen to me, forget about your previous boyfriend and strike while the iron is hot! This young man must not be missed!"

Sierra replied to Vania with a smile, "I'll think about it!"

As they were talking, they heard footsteps at the door. Hence, they immediately stopped talking and looked at the door.

The door was pushed open. Eddison did not come in. Instead, it was his roommate, Carney, who entered the ward instead.

Holding a bag in his hand, he said, "Sierra, I'm sorry for being late. There was traffic congestion. I bet you've been waiting, haven't you? Here you are."
