The cold moonlight outside also radiated a bit of brightness.

Everything was so quiet and full of the beauty of a peaceful life.

In such a calm and beautiful atmosphere, Adrian Zhekova’s voice was soft, yet reassuring.

Listened to his words, Cindy Clarke felt utterly enveloped by warmth.

“In the future, you will have many family members and friends,” Adrian said.

“Mhmm,” Cindy nodded heavily, “Adrian, have I ever told you that you are so good?”

“Not yet, but it’s not too late to say it now,” Adrian smiled, “but I’d rather hear you say three other words.”

Cindy’s blinking speed involuntarily quickened along with her heartbeat.

She didn’t feel it was too soon to say those three words.

Emotions were just that strange.

Although she hadn’t known Adrian for very long and had only just established a romantic relationship today.

But Cindy knew that she wasn’t only drawn to him.

She was truly in love with this man.

Falling in love has nothing to do with the length of acquaintance.

Like Adrian could be sure, he wants to marry her.

She was also sure that she wanted to be with him for the rest of her life.

Every encounter would make her love him even more.

Even before today, in every interaction with him, she had already fallen for him.

She once told Adrian that she would never fall in love or get married, just to raise Morgan Zhekova.

But in reality, she knew.

After meeting someone as great as him and spending time together, how could she possibly be interested in anyone else?

Adrian had unconsciously raised her standards.

From the very beginning when he tried to make his presence felt in front of Cindy, Adrian had not had good intentions!

So, if it wasn’t Adrian, she wouldn’t fall for anyone else, much less get married.

Cindy looked up from Adrian’s arms, even at such close range, she couldn’t find any imperfections in his features.

Whether they were combined together or taken separately, they were all exquisite.

Cindy felt as if she was in a dream.

How could such a great man fall for her?

She had never even won a lucky draw, how did she stumble upon such a rare stroke of luck?

She watched Adrian’s ears visibly redden.

Seeing his reaction, Cindy’s own nervousness disappeared a little.

She took a deep breath, mustered courage, and whispered into Adrian’s ear, “I love you.”

Adrian suddenly went stiff.

Then, he hugged Cindy tightly.

“Cindy,” Adrian said joyfully, unable to stop smiling, his body trembling.

He really didn’t expect Cindy to take the initiative to say those three words to him.

Just now, he was just blowing smoke, not really expecting Cindy to say it.

“Now, you’ve put me in a very passive position,” Adrian said.

“Huh?” Cindy was confused.

What’s so passive?

“Those three words, I should have said them to you first,” Adrian whispered.

Upon seeing Cindy’s bewildered expression, Adrian explained, “The one who says they love first is more vulnerable.”

“I want to put the initiative in your hands,” Adrian said, “So, even if you said those three words first, remember, I was the one who fell for you first, okay?”

This way, Cindy could seize more control.

Let him be the one who is worried about gaining and losing.

Cindy understood Adrian’s meaning.

“Why are you so good to me?” Cindy was on the verge of tears.

How could anyone be so kind to her?!

Why was she so lucky to meet Adrian five years ago?

Who would say her luck is bad now?

She was clearly very lucky!

“Silly,” Adrian looked at her almost tearful face and kissed her lips gently, “I love you.”

Cindy’s heart raced as Adrian urged her, “Hurry up and say you love me too.” “Didn’t I just say that?” It took so much courage to do it.

“That doesn’t count since I should have said it first. So after I said it, you should say it too,” Adrian explained.

Cindy realized that sometimes, this man could be a little childish.

“Hurry up,” Adrian urged her again.

Cindy had no choice but to reluctantly mumble the words into his ear again.

“Little girl, you said… why did you run away back then!” Adrian lamented with gritted teeth, “If you hadn’t run, it would have been so much better!”

“If I hadn’t run away back then, wouldn’t you have thought of me as someone plotting against you?” Cindy said, “Your attitude towards me would never be like it is now. Maybe you would have even forced me to have an abortion, and Morgan would never have been born.”

“If I could fall for you now, I would have fallen for you back then,” Adrian pinched her waist, “If you hadn’t run away, I would have known you five years earlier.”

“You’re so likable, even if there was some misunderstanding at the beginning, it would have cleared up soon,” Adrian pinched her cheek, “I would have protected you, and you wouldn’t have had to raise Morgan alone. Maybe we would have been married by now.”

He would have been the first among their brothers to get married and have children! A true winner at life!

“Stop talking about it,” Cindy puffed her cheeks, “Now that you mention it, I feel regretful, too. Why did I run away back then.”

With Adrian by her side, she could have continued her college education.

She wouldn’t have had to defer her studies, which led to her being counseled

out by the school.

Most importantly, she missed out on five years of time with Adrian.

Morgan also lost five years of a complete family.

Adrian laughed lightly against her neck, “Actually, besides those three words, there are three other words I’d really like to hear.”

At this point, Cindy was clueless, “Which three words?”

Adrian whispered softly into her ear, “I want you..”
