Chapter 449
What Flynn lacked was a determination like Andrew’s.
In all the years we had been at Lincoln University, Flynn had never said anything like this in public.
For any woman, nothing was more essential than being affirmed and acknowledged in front
of others.
“Why should I trust you? Because of your eloquence?” I asked.
He replied, “With my strong love for her, I’ll never leave her forever. Is that enough? Luna, no matter how much I promise, it would be better to do something that will make her happy.
“Promises are useless except for bluffing. At least I haven’t seen anyone punished for breaching their words. As long as Queenie is willing to give me a chance, I’ll make her happy forever.”
Andrew said that with sincerity. His eyes were clear with happiness.
Sincerity was quite rare in a wealthy family. It showed that he had a good intention.
He patted the pillow again and lay down excitedly. Then, he took a selfie and sent a WhatsApp story with the sentence–On a Journey to Pursue Love.
He even added a chubby boy icon behind the sentence. His tone of the sentence was playful
and sincere, which was a bit cute.
I was curious how Queenie would react when she saw it. I even wondered when she’d be able
to let go of the past and pay attention to this cute, cool boy.
Perhaps his sincerity led me to believe he would keep her happy for the rest of her life.
After lying on the bed, I was still thinking that maybe Andrew would be Queenie’s salvation.
As I had been busy for several days, I was exhausted. After scrolling through my phone, I felt sleepy and set my phone aside. Just as I was about to fall asleep, my phone rang.
It was so annoying. The caller was crazy to call me at midnight.
I irritably stretched the sheet to cover my face and didn’t bother looking for my phone. I assumed the caller would hang up after no one responded. However, the caller waited patiently until the call was automatically denied before calling again. The ringing of the phone took away my drowsiness.
1/2
When it rang for the fourth time, I reached for my phone in annoyance, shouting, “Who is it? I want to sleep! Are you crazy to call me at this hour?”
After shouting, I realized that it was a video call. Colin’s expression on the screen darkened. His eyes were flickering, and he looked a little gloomy and scary.
Did he want to settle the score with me? I smiled playfully in secret as I remembered the post in my WhatsApp story. Hmph, I did it on purpose. It was my revenge for him hugging Jasmine.
I wasn’t that petty or selfish. Though, when I saw the man I loved hugging another woman, I couldn’t help but feel bad.
Although Colin claimed that Jasmine saved his life, only the two of them knew what went on. As his girlfriend, I had a right to know it. I had the right to complain for the whole truth to be exposed.
Moreover, he had disturbed my restful slumber. I even considered cutting–off a few red flowers as a punishment for his inappropriate behavior and extending his probation period.
It was just that Colin’s eyes were too frightening. I flinched reflexively, but I feigned indifference and met his stare, forcing myself to confront him.
“Do you have hands?” he asked gloomily.
“I have.” I stretched out my other hand to the screen and made a gesture deftly.
“Since you have, why don’t you peel the shrimp yourself?”
“I’m used to having someone peel shrimp for me. I can’t do it because I’m afraid of hurting my hands,” I deliberately said so to make him unhappy.
