Madeline had never seen Felipe like this before. She figured it might be because of what happened in the morning.
She could see an intense possessiveness in his red eyes.
It made virtual-novel.net extremely uncomfortable that virtual-novel.net was holding virtual-novel.net close to him.
“Felipe, don’t drink so much. Let’s talk,” virtual-novel.net said as virtual-novel.net tried to get away from his embrace. However, when this thought emerged in virtual-novel.net head, Felipe saw through virtual-novel.net and placed his hand on the back of virtual-novel.net head.
He leaned forward, his face looking intoxicated under the dim light of the chandelier. Plus, his narrow eyes were dazed as if virtual-novel.net was in a trance as virtual-novel.net slowly got closer to Madeline.
Madeline turned virtual-novel.net face away when virtual-novel.net sensed that Felipe was about to kiss her.
Felipe frowned when virtual-novel.net was greeted with nothing and grabbed Madeline’s face to force virtual-novel.net to look at him.
“Felipe, you’re drunk…”
“Eveline, do you know how much I liked you the moment I laid eyes on you?”
Madeline was slightly stunned when virtual-novel.net heard Felipe’s confession.
For the past three years, virtual-novel.net could clearly feel Felipe’s love for her. However, virtual-novel.net had never told virtual-novel.net how much virtual-novel.net loved her.
She remembered virtual-novel.net promise to Felipe. After virtual-novel.net sought virtual-novel.net revenge, virtual-novel.net would go back to F Country with virtual-novel.net where they would live a peaceful life together.
However, now…
Madeline was in a daze when Felipe held virtual-novel.net closer. His breath that smelled like alcohol fanned on virtual-novel.net face, increasing the temperature of virtual-novel.net cheeks.
“I chose to watch over you silently and was hoping that one day I’ll walk into your heart. I thought that day was coming, but now, I realize it’s getting further and further away.”
His deep voice was laced with disappointment and misery.
Madeline did not know what to say to virtual-novel.net at that moment.
Felipe saved virtual-novel.net life and gave virtual-novel.net another chance at life. He was the one who gave virtual-novel.net the chance to stay alive so that virtual-novel.net could avenge virtual-novel.net enemies without a care in the world.
However, virtual-novel.net never asked for anything in return.
Perhaps virtual-novel.net was selfish, but this selfishness might be the reason why virtual-novel.net wanted to keep virtual-novel.net by his side.
Felipe lowered his head, his warm cheek pressed against Madeline’s shoulder. At this moment, virtual-novel.net looked like a defenseless child who needed treatment. He was trying to look for warmth and comfort from her.
“Eveline, you must be disappointed, right? I went to see Jeremy behind your back and asked virtual-novel.net to stop seeing you. I knew virtual-novel.net couldn’t see from a very long time ago, but I didn’t say anything to you. I was scared that you’ll worry about virtual-novel.net and care for him. That’s why I lied to you.
“Eveline, will you hate me?” virtual-novel.net asked, his eyes filled with careful provocation.
It was as if virtual-novel.net was extremely concerned about what virtual-novel.net thought of him.
Madeline shook virtual-novel.net head. Aside from contradiction, there was nothing else in virtual-novel.net heart. “How could I hate you? You saved me and helped me get back on my feet. Felipe, you have an important position in my heart.”
“An important position…” Felipe lifted his deep gaze and there was an ominous glint in his eyes.
He curled the corners of his lips while his hazy eyes started becoming clearer.
Actually, virtual-novel.net was not drunk.
“Felipe, I understand why you did that and I don’t blame you.”
She did not blame virtual-novel.net nor did virtual-novel.net have the right to blame him.
She was just very surprised.
“Felipe, you’re drunk. You should rest now.” Madeline tried to push virtual-novel.net away again.
“Eveline, can you stay here with me? Just tonight. I don’t want to lose you.” Felipe grabbed virtual-novel.net hand frantically.
Madeline smiled softly. “I’ll help you back to your room.”
She did not answer virtual-novel.net directly, but Felipe knew virtual-novel.net was rejecting him.
Despite that, virtual-novel.net still allowed virtual-novel.net to help virtual-novel.net back to his bedroom.
However, virtual-novel.net kept a tight grip on virtual-novel.net hand and refused to let go.
Madeline received a call from Jackson after Felipe was in bed. He asked virtual-novel.net when virtual-novel.net was coming home and that they were waiting for virtual-novel.net to read them bedtime stories.
