"I thought you were nothing special to me, just one of the many girls I've liked before. If you weren't around, I figured I wouldn't feel any different.
But, during the time you were away from the company, I kept feeling like something was missing in my everyday life. I would often think about you, pacing back and forth in front of me.
And when I see you with other guys, I get jealous! How could you treat them the same way you treat me?
I can't stand you being good to other guys! You can't be good to other guys!"
Belinda was a bit confused.
What on earth was Chase doing? Was he acting like a spoiled child?
"Mr. Larios..."
Chase wiped his eyes on her shoulder. "Would you consider being with me again? Once we're together, I promise I won't have anything to do with other girls. I'll only date you! Would you give me a chance? Try again with me. Please?"
Belinda found herself short of breath, but her rational mind told her that she and this man weren't a good fit.
"I want a stable relationship and a simple, peaceful life. Mr. Larios, even if I admit that I still have feelings for you, we're really not suitable.
I once naively thought that I could be the special one who could change you. But now I understand that I'm not special.
Maybe you do have some feelings for me. But you're used to open relationships. How long could you hold back for me?
I don't think it would be long. By then, you'd probably just casually turn around and do your own thing. I can't bear being abandoned again. Forget it!"
