Unexpectedly Sweet Flash Marriage novel Chapter 79

Chapter 79 What if Someone Touched Me

Curtis gazed steadily at Adeline, his expression was unreadable and he said, "So, do you have something to tell me?"

Adeline felt somewhat nervous. She picked up her milk and took a hurried sip, "Isn't Hannah already told you everything?"

"No, I want to hear it from you," Curtis's tone remained calm, without a hint of pressure, more like a gentle encouragement. "When it comes to your matters, I never want to hear it from anyone else. I want to hear it from you."

"If you choose not to say it, I'll wait until the day you completely trust me."

Adeline's heart trembled slightly, and she tightened her grip on the glass.

After a few seconds, she made up her mind.

Putting down the glass, she looked at Curtis with a serious expression, "I heard that you don't like others touching your things. Is that true?"

"Yes," Curtis answered without hesitation, "It's true. People say I have an extremely possessive nature, and I don't like others touching my things"

"Once someone touches my stuff, I would rather destroy them and buy new ones than use them again."

Adeline instantly recalled the incident with the couch and decorations at home, and she understood it.

"And..." Curtis paused, maintaining his composure, "When it comes to dining, except for family members and people I truly trust, I never share a table or use the same plate of dishes with others. Those rumors you heard from others are all true."

Adeline looked at Curtis in shock, not expecting him to be so candid.

So, did that mean he was drawing a clear boundary between himself and Adeline, after hearing from Hannah about what happened to her?

Adeline's hands nervously clutched the glass as she asked the question that had been on her mind all along, "What if... someone touched me?"

"What if those three delinquents had touched me that night?"

"If, I mean, if..."

Adeline took a deep breath, felt struggling, and closed her eyes, "What if I've been touched by Jonathan?"

The air instantly became still.

Adeline bit her lip, anxiously waiting for Curtis's response.

After a long time, she still didn't receive an answer, and with a sense of disappointment, she opened her eyes and looked at Curtis.
