Chapter 1605
He took the opportunity to embrace her, saying, "I’m not soone who longs for marriage, but I know I like you, and I’m willing to enter into a marriage with you."
"When I first saw you, I indeed didn’t have many thoughts, but then you got seriously injured protecting . That mont made realize that there are indeed people in this world who would risk their lives to save others.
Since that day, I assud you liked because I couldn’t find any other reason to explain your actions."
He touched her hair and slowly said, "But then, as you know, I made a fool of myself by being presumptuous. Normally, that should have been the end of it, as you had no feelings for and I didn’t want to hurt soone as innocent as you."
"Yet afterward, things took a turn I didn’t expect, and I started missing you."
Layla Lowell’s eyes trembled slightly.
"Later, when we were together, you were upset that my life was always surrounded by other won, an idea I couldn’t understand at the ti, and I wasn’t willing to give up my lifestyle for you, so I agreed to break up."
"I’ve always been one to break up cleanly, with no lingering feelings or longing. You, however, were the exception."
Layla Lowell clenched her fists and pushed him away, "You’re just fascinated by how different I am, it’s not that you love . One day when you grow tired of , you’ll leave just the sa!"
Charles Carrington shook his head, "At that ti, I really did think that way. I thought about it for two years, and this year I figured it out. I’m not just chasing novelty, I truly like you."
He reached out to her, "Moreover, Dawn’s arrival wasn’t an accident, it was my long-cherished plan."
She was shocked, "What did you say?"
The man embraced her and said softly, "I think, from that ti, I wanted to marry you, though at the ti I hadn’t realized my own feelings, and could only blunderingly go about it."
"You’re the only one who can spark my desire for a family."
Layla Lowell never knew he had so many thoughts; she had always thought he was heartless, the only one with wild thoughts being herself.
Today, however, he spoke so many words that she couldn’t keep up.
Annoying as it was, his "sweet nothings" seed to have hit their mark, a tear the size of a bean fell from her eyes, damn the weakness.
"Help! Save !"
Suddenly, a call for help ca from outside, causing both of them to pause.
Layla Lowell quickly recognized that it was the voice of their nanny, and her face turned pale with shock, "It’s Auntie!"
She ran out the door.
Charles Carrington also quickly went out to check.
They scanned the living room but didn’t see anyone!
Then, the cries for help ca from outside the door again.
"Don’t co near !"
"I’m not hurt! Look, I’m a normal person."
"No! You’re not, you’ve been bitten!"
Charles Carrington ran to open the door and saw Miranda Jones cornering the nanny and the child at the end of the hallway!
Miranda Jones’s face and clothes were covered in blood, and the bite wound on her arm was clearly visible—it was evident she had been bitten.
People who are bitten don’t imdiately lose their sanity; during the incubation period of the virus, she would still be rational. But if she were to bite soone else, she could infect them.
The nanny, holding the child, had been backed up against the wall with nowhere to go.
"Sir! Help !" she called out looking in their direction.
Layla Lowell, seeing this scene, was about to rush over to help, but was stopped by Charles Carrington.
He was also nervous, but it was essential to stay calm.
At the mont, Miranda Jones was very close to the child. If they charged over now, they would certainly provoke Miranda Jones.
