Chapter 1034 You’re the Girl I Love Most (10)

• Kate Penrose let out a sigh and sat down beside Madison Sawyer. “Xiao Xiao, don’t torture yourself. I know you’re hurting like hell. But you gave so much for him for one reason—hoping one day he’d treat you right. So don’t overthink it. Time will heal the wounds. If you two can be together and do it right, isn’t that enough?”
• “Sis. He’s being nice to me now because, just like you, he thinks I tried to kill myself because of him, so he feels he has to take responsibility. But I don’t need that. Sis, I’ve basically died once already. If I still don’t get it and keep clinging like a fool, then that ‘death’ was for nothing. All the pain I went through would be for nothing.” Madison said tiredly, “What happened before was my fault. I loved him too deeply and acted stupid. In the end, it was a complete mistake. I became a fool. I didn’t die this time—call it luck. I don’t want to repeat the same mistake. He’s not someone worth my love. Sis, stop trying to talk me into it.”
• But Kate wasn’t someone who gave up that easily. “Xiao Xiao, do you know how he’s been these days? He stayed by your side, sat at your bed, held your hand, and kept talking to you. Mr. Wembley and Mrs. Lewis yelled at him, got mad, but they never drove him out. You think that’s just ‘responsibility’? If it were, he could’ve hired a caregiver to do all that. No need to run himself ragged. He just wanted to be with you more, to wake you sooner. After you woke up, you wouldn’t see him, wouldn’t even look him in the eye, but the way he looks at you—anyone can see it. That’s the way you look at someone you love. There’s no way he doesn’t love you. And you know better than anyone: did he ever say he loved you before? You told me you confessed to him, told him you liked him, and he still wouldn’t say it. But these days, he finally admitted his feelings… said he’s always felt this way about you.”
