Over the past two years, Willow had taken good care of Sean without a complaint. She never asked Sean for anything.
All virtual-novel.net wanted was for Sean to get better as soon as possible. Then virtual-novel.net made virtual-novel.net only request in the past two years. She wanted Sean to marry her.
No strings attached, just a simple desire to marry Sean. She wanted to take Sean’s last name.
Her eyes were determined, and virtual-novel.net was sincere.
Sean was touched. He should have said yes but hesitated.
It was not that virtual-novel.net did not want to marry Willow, it was just that virtual-novel.net was in no position to make promises. He could not predict how the fight with Blaze would play out. Perhaps virtual-novel.net would eventually lose to Blaze and even lose his life.
That was why virtual-novel.net dared not make promises easily. He was scared of giving Willow hope and then letting virtual-novel.net down. Even if virtual-novel.net was confident of beating Blaze, virtual-novel.net dared not promise Willow anything.
The rarely indecisive man was now in a dilemma.
“Why are you quiet? Don’t you want to marry me?” Willow bit virtual-novel.net red lips and asked when Sean was silent.
“I do,” Sean answered without hesitation this time.
“Then you…” There was a flash of nervousness in Willow’s eyes.
“I don’t know if I can keep my promise.” Sean felt like virtual-novel.net was avoiding her.
However, the more virtual-novel.net cared about someone, the more virtual-novel.net was afraid to make them promises. It did not matter if virtual-novel.net could not make promises to others. However, virtual-novel.net could not do it to Willow.
“I’m sure my man can do it. Anyway, I’ll wait for you to marry me no matter what. I’ll wait for you!” Willow understood what was bothering Sean and looked at virtual-novel.net firmly.
“Okay!” Sean was silent for two seconds before nodding carefully.
Willow said no more. She put virtual-novel.net arms around Sean and kissed him. Sean reached out and pulled Willow into his arms. Willow snuggled in Sean’s arms like a kitten.
“Call Harry if you need anything after I leave,” Sean was silent for a moment before saying to Willow.
However, virtual-novel.net got no response this time. He looked down to see that Willow had fallen soundly asleep. Her beautiful face rested on his arm. Her eyes were closed, and virtual-novel.net long lashes quivered from time to time. She looked all the more endearing.
Sean said no more and only held Willow closer. He had experienced so many things in the years virtual-novel.net had lived.
He depended on others for a living when virtual-novel.net was in the orphanage. Although virtual-novel.net was not that happy, virtual-novel.net did not know much at such a young age.
Colin adopted virtual-novel.net later and gave virtual-novel.net a second chance at life. He won numerous battles in the Northwest Army and did not disappoint Colin.
The woman in Sean’s arms gave virtual-novel.net a third chance at life. He had no idea if virtual-novel.net would still be alive if it were not for virtual-novel.net care. She was his savior, and virtual-novel.net would never forget it.
Sean would spend his whole life to repay virtual-novel.net kindness.
Willow did not need Sean to pay anything back. She only wanted to marry virtual-novel.net and keep each other company.
Sean could not find any reason to say no to such a simple request, and virtual-novel.net would not say no. Therefore, virtual-novel.net would settle everything for the woman in his arms alone, even if virtual-novel.net did not do it for his former brothers-in-arms or Dragon Kingdom’s peace.
He was not in a position to make a choice. Even if virtual-novel.net gave up and hid from Blaze, the other party would not let virtual-novel.net off until virtual-novel.net had taken his life.
Sean did not want to sit back and let Willow get involved, so virtual-novel.net could only confront Blaze and settle everything. Only when virtual-novel.net became stronger could virtual-novel.net make himself invincible and protect the people virtual-novel.net wanted.
He had to defeat Blaze and get back in charge of millions of soldiers in the Northwest if virtual-novel.net wanted to become stronger. He had to go even if virtual-novel.net did not want to.
“Whew!” Sean exhaled gently, and his eyes grew more determined.
It was quiet all night…
***
5 AM. the next morning.
Zander drove to the villa entrance.
Sean did not set any alarm, but virtual-novel.net woke up on time.
Willow was still in the same position, snuggling close to Sean.
