Chapter 129 Mrs. Riley, Did You Have Me in Your Heart Now
Curtis let out a light sigh and asked, "Is it just this matter? Nothing else?"
Adeline was dumbfounded, she slightly raised her voice in frustration and continued, "What else could there be? This matter is terrible enough. You want a child so badly..."
Before she could finish her sentence, Curtis's tone turned slightly stern as he retorted, "Who said that?"
He would take care of that person! That person was interfering with their relationship!
"It was you!" Adeline looked at Curtis in disbelief, "Just a few days ago, you said you liked children."
Curtis choked for a moment, his expression was awkward as he touched his nose, "Well... I lied to you."
Adeline couldn't quite tell whether he was being truthful or not for a while.
"I don't really like kids. I find them noisy all the time, very annoying. Moreover, having children can affect a couple's relationship. Many people around me have neglected their partners' feelings because of their children."
It seemed as though he was afraid that Adeline wouldn't believe him, so Curtis added, "Those who know me well are aware that I don't like children. Whenever kids see me, they cry. Ella knows that very well."
Seeing his annoying expression, Adeline began to believe him somewhat.
"So... You really don't mind that I can't bear children. You don't care?"
"I don't mind," Curtis shrugged, "I married you not just to have children."
While he was saying that, he affectionately embraced Adeline, "Stop trying to guess my thoughts all the time. If you have something to say, just tell me. We're a couple, we need to communicate more."
Adeline held Curtis's waist tightly, breathed a sigh of relief, and gratefully said, "You're so good to me, I will treat you well in the future."
Curtis rubbed her head and said, "You're my wife, if I'm not good to you, who will I be good to? Adeline, I didn't lie to you. I genuinely wanted to pursue you. I believe that a married couple should spend their lives together and they must love each other. If you don't love me and still spend a lifetime with me, how tiring would that be?"
Adeline's heart trembled, a look of surprise in her eyes, "So that's why you wanted to pursue me?"
"Otherwise? Adeline, I hope you have me in your heart, just like you had Logan before. I want to step into your heart." Curtis patted her back and asked, "So, do you have me in your heart now?"
Adeline felt touched, she nodded her head and answered, "A little bit.
Actually, it was more than just a little bit.
Since Curtis asked so directly, it was embarrassing for her to answer it.
