Chapter 120

I did not think I should get involved at this very moment, thus I hesitated and decided to go back to the bedroom.

Dennis, unexpectedly, invited, “come to eat something”.

I saw Dennis was looking at me and so was Olivia who was aggrieved and cracked with red eyes.

With a silent sigh, I went down, but tried to slip quietly into the dining-room.

From the hall came the voice that Olivia intended to make me listen, “Clara, an orphan, who has nothing will be helpless for the growth of George Group. I, on the other hand, have my mother and the Lewis’s behind, who can help you operate the company better.”

She was right, since none of us could dominate the whole world. No matter how brilliant and excellent we were, at a certain level, we still had to depend on relationships and human resources behind.

It was a wise choice to connect with Luna Knight and Samuel Lewis.

The congee was sweat and I lost my appetite. Chin on my hand, I, hence, continued to hear their conversations. It was Dennis who spoke, “Olivia, if I can betray my wife and child for the resources that back you up today, I will absolutely do the same to you for a more powerful woman tomorrow.”

“I don’t care!” cried Olivia, “I love you! If you really met a better girl one day, I would like to have you achieve more if you want to.”

Dennis seemed to be angry, “But I do care! I’m only capable to marry the one who is Clara!”

“But you don’t love her!” she shouted, “ The marriage without love is not able to last forever. And you and your child will suffer a lot from the loveless life.”

Dennis’s voice sounded frozen, “Olivia, this is my marriage in which only Clara and I involved. I hope you stay out of it. The reason I took care you before is that I had committed to your brother I would raise you. Now you have a nice life since you have the beloved parents, while I have my own family to support.”

“I hope you can control your behavior and words, without hurting my family. If you cannot, I don’t think we shall meet again.” he continued.

“No necessary to see each other?” she mourned unbelievably, “Dennis, do you love her?”

Hit me an astonishment that Dennis had spoken out those words. He always kept his promises. It was sure that he did not treat Olivia as before.

What surprised me more was the following answer from Dennis - Yes!

He had fallen in love with me?

Olivia almost screamed, “No way! That’s not love, but responsibility. Because she has waited for you for two years, slept with you and got pregnant.

It’s guilt and responsibility, but not love!”

Dennis had bad skills in debate, so he just suggested when Olivia was on the edge of breakdown, “Stop it, Olivia, just go with Marcus.”

It’s probably that Dennis was concerned she would annoyed me, he asked her to leave in a lower voice, after which Marcus arrived soon.

Olivia was so emotional that Marcus had to forced her to leave, pulling and carrying her.

I was nearly full when Dennis came in. He chocked the eyebrows, looking tired. “How do you like the breakfast?” asked him.

I nodded and asked, “Didn’t you sleep well last night?”

He just smiled, dragging me in his arms and leaning his chin on my shoulder, “ Do you have any plans for this afternoon?”

“I am supposed to hang out, as Diana has been back for several days. We didn’t see each other since last time, so I want to visit her this afternoon.”

said I.

Alex would arrive in Newton Town this afternoon, which I did not tell Dennis. There is no need to do so, since I am not sick to die.

“Fine,” answered he who was somehow discontented, “It seems that I will be left alone.”

I clutched his hands and stared at him, saying, “Dennis, what did you tell Olivia is true, right?”

My shadow was clearly visible in his pupil when we looked at each other. “I haven’t told lies, have I?” said he.

“Good! Let’s work together for our life!” In fact, love did not matter too much in a marriage. Compared with responsibility, it was insignificant.

I was not sure how much did Dennis love me, but I was pretty confident that he would not give up the baby and me as for the responsibility.

That was enough to me.

We sat in the lobby for a while before I left. Though my belly was big, I could still drive.

Alex would reached at 3 o’clock in the afternoon. It was the perfect time to pickr him up.

I was amazed when seeing the outstanding man walking through the exit. It had been only years when a boy with 1.7 meters grew up such tall.

Please Love Me, Mr. George He became a stylish and handsome man in twenties. For it was too hot, he was in gray shorts and blue checked shirt, a new design in the Fashion Week this year. Sunglasses on his prominent nose and perfect haircut made him extremely dashing.

“Hi, baby, I finally see you.” not until did I react, the 1.8-meter tall guy had enfolded me.

“Long time. You are so tall now!” said I, pushing him back. I could not help thinking that time did change people, because Alex was more handsome that I thought..

He was even more outstanding than the superstars.

He pinched my face and laughed, “You didn’t know that I tried my best to grow and made it at last, maybe I’ll become taller.”

Looking up at him, I pout, “Taller? Do you want to be as high as the sky?”

When he got into the car, he searched and said, “ Where is Diana? Does she have a man, too?”

I smiled, “You’ll see her in the restaurant where she went to reserve seats.

With the seat belt, he said, “Just give a call to reserve”. Then he stopped to watch my belly. His eyes twitching, he suggested, “Shall I drive?”

Raising my eyebrow, I asked, “ Do you know where the restaurant is?”

“No.” replied he.

“Here we go,” said I, “I’ve reserved you a four-star hotel, so that you can enjoy your trip in this town.”

He said to me out of the discontent, “I won’t sleep in the hotel. You have married, haven’t you? I’ve heard from Diana that your husband is the CEO of a listed company. He must be really rich, and you should live in a big villa with at least 500 square meters.”

A very prying expression on his face amused me, “You know my husband, a master giant, who was criticized by your articles before.”

He choked, “Dennis?”

I nodded and smiled. Dennis had started to charge of the group when he was only 28, an university student as I was. As a manager of the large group, he was too young.
