Chapter 1815
Michal's eyes darkened and he remained silent for two minutes.
The next second, he held Waverly's hand again. "Let me take you to a place!"
Waverly took a deep breath, but she was livid. "He's really a Johnson. He's wild and doesn't understand human language."
"Michal, I have something important to do!"
"I just need a few minutes-"
Without further ado, Michal dragged her into her car. When the car grew, Waverly's entire face was green.
...
In the night, the car moved forward smoothly. The surrounding scenery was dark, but they showed no sign of stopping. Nobody knew how long they had been driving. Waverly had been holding her breath for a long time, shaking and sleeping continuously. Eventually, the car finally stopped in front of a two-story courtyard.
As the lights flashed, Waverly roughly looked around. There were only a few lights, which were different from the hustle and bustle of the nightlife in the city. There were no neon lights or bright signs. It was quiet like another world.
Did he take her to a resort? Why was it so quiet?
In the dead of night, Waverly suddenly felt a little timid and did not want to get off the car.
At this time, a big palm gently reached out to her. "This is Washington Hills, which is known as 'Little Paradise' in Casterwich City New District. Don't worry, I'm not kidnapping you!"
Washington Hills?
Waverly seemed to have a vague impression of this name. It seemed to be a place that was new in the past two years. Then, they walked out of the car hand in hand.
"This is the suburbs of Casterwich City. Usually, driving only takes more than an hour. Now, because of all kinds of roadbuilding and detours, it takes two or three hours to come over! In Casterwich City and the surrounding lands, this area has a complete landscape and the air is the best. There is water around, a mountain, and a small village on both sides. Everything is natural. Therefore, it is marked as a special area in the reserve. The small buildings here were only built in the past two years. The styles of the buildings are still simple and quaint!"noveldrama
"Why did you bring me here?"
She had been to the countryside and strange attractions before, so she was not curious about them.
After locking the car, Michal just pushed her into the car and said, "I'm taking you to enjoy your life!"
After entering the door, she found that it was a very simple but beautiful courtyard. The courtyard was full of vitality, which was very lively. There was a small vegetable garden, a small flower garden, one side of which was a fence, there were chickens and ducks, and in the middle, there was a half open space for leisure and entertainment. In the house, there were people, an old couple, Mr. Stewart and Mrs. Stewart.
In the evening, the old couple made fried chicken, braised vegetables, pancakes, and then cooked porridge. The two dishes were enough for four people. They were so good that they could eat as much as they liked. Besides, they could eat very well.
After the meal, they cleaned up the table, and the old couple went out for a walk hand in hand. Waverly also went out with Michal. The air at night was cold and light, and her restless heart seemed to have calmed down.
But Waverly knew that this kind of life was not what she wanted. She did not deny the beauty of this paradise and would not reject it when she was old and weak. But now, she did not want it. Without the noise and pressure of the city, it was like being tied by someone and had no motivation to move forward. She did not like excitement, but she liked to fight forward and to make progress.
Waverly stopped and turned to look at Michal.
"I won't run away! I may take a break when things get too hard for a while, but I won't run away from it for a lifetime! The rumors, gossip, or the comments that may hurt me in the future may be difficult, but I will never run away, nor will I choose to deceive myself to seek perfection!"
So even if he was willing to accompany her to live in seclusion, she would not accept it.
Once, she chose to marry someone for the sake of her family and getting rid of the reputation as a widow. In the end, she only implicated her family. She was in pain and got herself into trouble. Now, no matter whether her reputation was ruined or if she could not bear a child, she could accept it calmly. Destiny gave her such an arrangement. If she was doomed to be lonely, she also thought about the life she wanted. She would not choose an empty corner to leave the world. Even without love, she still had family affection and friendship.
"You're wrong. Do you think I brought you here to live with me in seclusion?"
"Huh?" Wasn't it?
Smiling faintly, Michal said, "Have you seen Mr. and Mrs. Stewart?"
"Yes."
Waverly nodded in confusion. Did he ask her to come over to see this loving old couple? What was the point?
"They are almost sixty years old this year. Every day, they come and go with each other to run a farmhouse here, relying on self-sufficiency in farming places and making money from the customers. But you know what? They were once a famous rich family in the village. They had a son in university, Chris, who was very successful. They love each other, had a harmonious family, were rich, and had children. For many years, they were the winners of their lives, at least to the villagers who envied them. But in his sophomore year, Chris suddenly got sick and treatment cost them hundreds of thousands of dollars. What was more, it became an incurable disease that paralyzed him for his whole life. However, after squandering all their money, the two of them could not retain his last breath. Over the past ten years, regardless of rain or shine, they go through it hand in hand..."
Staring into the distance, Michal could not help but sigh.
"Waverly, if I didn't tell you this, can you imagine such a tragic experience behind this kind-looking old couple, who always have smiles on their faces? This is the most tragic thing in the world!"
In an instant, Waverly's heart was also filled with bitterness. She became silent. "Sure enough, every family has their own problems!"
"In fact, none of us can predict the future, and we don't even know what will happen tomorrow. No matter what, life is life, right? Even if all the children and grandchildren make a name for themselves, are they really happy?"
His words enlightened Waverly. She instantly understood what he meant by bringing her here: He wanted to undo the knot in her heart.
"Waverly, I don't want to take you away from the world, but I want you to have a clean slate. There's no real meaning, and don't send me away. I know you have a past, but I also know you have been separated!"
Waverly sighed helplessly and said, "Since you know that there's no real meaning, why do you persist?"
She gave him a thorough hint. How did he become confused when it came to himself? Didn't he understand that the fundamental reason why she refused him was because she didn't love him?
There was something he said that was right. There was no reason at all. There must only be feelings!
As their eyes met, Michal fell silent again. In fact, he did not take her to the backyard, but he planted a rose for her, and he placed a "heart" gesture.
In fact, he also felt it, perhaps because she had always been in his dreams in
these years. He had fantasized for too long, and as time passed, his heart fell with
her.
"You can reject me, but before you do, you should at least try it once. Don't make me die of reluctance."
They had been getting along very well before, but since she knew about his relationship with Wyatt, it had changed completely. Michal always felt that she would refuse him more because of Wyatt, not because of her own conscience. He had a chance!
Waverly shook her head and did not know what to say!
"I don't ask too much. Just give me seven days, okay? Just stay here in Washington Hills. You can take it as another trip. If you still make the same decision seven days later, I will respect your will, okay?"
Since she was kind-hearted, her heart was naturally soft. He firmly believed that his sincerity could soften and move her! Since the two of them liked each other from the beginning of their journey, Michal firmly believed that this method would make their feelings warm up by leaps and bounds.
She could no longer reject him anymore, and in the end, she listened to the quiet night breeze. Waverly suddenly felt that she might need this secluded silence and buffer more, so she nodded.
"You agree? That's great!"
Holding her hand, Michal was so excited that he almost picked her up and kissed her. "Let's go. I'll take you to your room!"
During the trotting, Michal first took her to the east main bedroom on the second floor of the house. When he opened the door, he saw a warm. nest. Dwas obviously a feminine and soft design. On the big bed, there was a soft and cute doll, and flowers were placed on the table. All kinds of daily toiletries were present, fresh and even packed. On the other side, on the hangers, even clothes had been bought.
Wasn't this part of his plan?
Looking back, Waverly glanced at him. Had she already fallen into his trap?
Rubbing his head, Michal smiled like a fool. "Since I made up my mind, I have
decided to go all out..."
"I must tempt you!"
"Waverly, you probably won't believe it when I tell you, but it's the first time I feel
so happy with a woman. I just hope it will last a little longer!"
In the past, he had rejected having a relationship with a woman. He always felt that he was tied up, annoyed, and even wanted to escape But when he was with her, it had overturned all of his perceptions and senses. No matter what the two
of them were doing or talking about, the cells all over his body seemed to be smiling brightly. Unlike before, this time, he was purely happy. He didn't even have the thoughts of the relationship between a man and
woman.
This feeling was really amazing. It was indescribable!
