Chapter 4302
Their relationship was unconventional, born out of an unexpected incident.
Moreover, the shadows of past events lingered, altering her feelings and the way she interacted with Luis.
She paused, lost in thought, and Luis quickly grasped her sentiment.
He chose not to press her but instead suggested softly, Maybe you should get some rest early.noveldrama
Elva nodded in agreement.
She escorted him downstairs and to the front door.
By now, Luis was almost fully alert. As he descended the stairs, he encountered Waylen, who was engrossed in the newspaper.
Without looking up, Waylen asked nonchalantly, Leaving now? Luis, maintaining his respect, replied, Ill come and visit with my parents soon.
Waylen eyed him for a moment before chiding him affectionately, You rascal! Despite the rebuke, Luis felt a comforting sense of belonging.
He seized the moment to assure Waylen, Dont worry, Mr.
Fowler.
I wont let Elva down.
Waylen seemed to want to respond but hesitated and ultimately remained silent.
After saying goodbye, Luis opened his car door and paused, turning to Elva.
In a gentle tone, he asked, Why did you suddenly agree to do this? I was sure youd be upset with me for much longer.The evening breeze tousled Elvas long hair, yet failed to obscure her stunning features.
She looked even more radiant at that moment.
Luis, unable to resist, drew her close and gently kissed her forehead.
He then whispered, Have you forgiven me? Elva remained silent.
Truthfully, her anger had subsided, but the issue still pricked at her heart like a stubborn thorn, not easily dislodged.
Perhaps, with some luck and years of a decent marriage, the sting of this memory might fadebut for now, it lingered. Even without an answer from her, Luis temper was still in check.
He retrieved the diamond ring from his pocket and attempted to slide it back onto her finger.
Elva resisted.
But Luis was persistent, soothing her with, This ring is from a man who loves you and wants to marry you, not from the man youre meant to marry.
Next time, Ill bring you one even grander! He playfully tweaked her nose and chided her for heeding Alexis advice.
Elva said nothing, just gazed at him, feeling a sudden twinge of sadness… She sensed that Luis did care for her, yet she wished it had come sooner.
Tears welled in her eyes.
