Will You Marry Me, My Ex-Wife? novel Chapter 2774

"I can't promise you that now," Yannie replied.

She took a deep breath, her eyes filled with despair and helplessness when she gazed into Thomas' eyes. "Perhaps you wouldn't be able to digest it all if you were in my stead. I'm sorry."

After a deep sigh, she curled up her lips into a bitter smile. "I can't lie to you nor lie to myself."

She thought Thomas would get mad, feel helpless, and despair with her after what she said. However, that was not what happened. Instead, Thomas curled up his lips and smiled, gazing into her eyes with his frail ones, "Alright, I respect your wishes. As long as…"

After a short pause, he continued looking at her with a smile. "As long as you stay with me, that's enough. If there comes a time you want to leave me and Riley, I hope you can tell me. Don't just go without saying goodbye. I won't force you to stay."

After all, he was a fool to have fallen into Tina and Denise's trap. Therefore, he had no right to stop Yannie, no matter what decision she made.

It was as she had said. Thinking from her perspective, Thomas could not possibly pretend nothing happened and continue to be with him. He could accept Yannie leaving him because of that incident, as long as she was not sad or upset.

Clearly, Yannie did not expect to receive that answer from Thomas. She was stunned and did not know what to say.

"Let's go." Thomas curled up his lips and walked over to her to hold her hand. "Let's head back to the hospital together with me. I'm feeling a little dizzy."

Yannie snapped out of her daze not long after as she quickly held Thomas' hand. "Alright."

After that, they got into the car hand-in-hand to head back to the hospital where Thomas got treated.

Meanwhile, far away in the hospital, Dan was standing by the window looking at Thomas and Yannie leaving together hand-in-hand. He furrowed his brow vehemently.

"Mom." He looked back angrily at Tina. "That guy manages to coax that woman. Is there any news from Denise?"
