In the past, Harrison never took the initiative to say these things to me. He always let me solve problems by myself.
Even if he knew that these things had happened, what he did was just to remind me. He would never be as angry as he was today.
Realizing that he was angry, I felt so happy that this emotion spread to the corner of my mouth.
"It seems that you enjoy these kinds of luck," Harrison said in an awkward tone.
"Mr. Stewart should have more luck with women than mine, shouldn't he?"
He stared at me and chuckled. "So are you jealous now?"
"I'm jealous, but you don't care. Why do you care so much?" I asked.
As soon as the words left my mouth, I saw Harrison's expression change. He looked at me for a long time without saying a word.
I don't mind if you don't say anything. Now we are different from before. If we continue to maintain our relationship in the same state as before, we may have been separated a long time ago.
In the future, there will be more and more problems for us. I just hope that things can be simpler. Don't think about it when you get close to me.
After a long time, Harrison said, "Don't have anything to do with Callen. A man like him is too dangerous."
"Do you mean the danger to me, or what?" I asked.
In fact, I just pretended that I didn't understand. Even if I knew it clearly, I had to pretend that I didn't understand. A man and a woman needed a certain skill to get along with each other. For example, now I wanted Harrison to take charge of everything.
He can see through every man around me, and I'm willing to spend time on him.
"He may hurt you at any time. Maybe he still has some feelings for you in his heart, but some feelings are no longer important to him," Harrison said seriously.
After that, he added, "If you don't believe me, you can try."
He turned around, and I grabbed his hand faster. He stood still.
The two of us seemed to be silent, waiting for each other to speak first. Today, I seemed to be determined to keep my mouth shut and did not speak. He waited for a long time, but he did not wait for me to speak. Finally, he turned to look at me.
The moment I saw him turn around, I finally couldn't help but smile, just like a child eating candy.
"Is it worth it for you to be so happy?" Harrison looked at me in confusion.
I nodded heavily. "I bet with myself in my heart. I'm wondering if you'll turn around."
"What's the bet?" He asked with great interest.
I said casually, "If you don't turn around, I'll go home and take a shower and sleep. I'll go to work until dawn."
"But, you turned around."
Probably because of my proud look, Harrison also laughed with me, but there was a deep helplessness in his smile. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't be able to see it.
"I will never tell Harrison. When I bet, I secretly remind myself in my heart that if he turns around, I will be more determined to stay with him, or I will have a way out."
What was a route of retreat? It was to continue to be strong when they reached a dead end.
Then I took Harrison's hand and walked in front. I walked steadily step by step. When I walked into the community, I felt as if I had returned to my college days.
