Chapter 72 Are You Confessing Your Love?
The air in the room seemed to have stagnated.
Maryâs clear almond-shaped eyes were round and full of shock. She couldnât even speak clearly.
William lightly picked up the teacup and took a sip. âSurprised?â Mary hurriedly nodded her head. This could no longer be considered an accident. This was simply a bolt from the blue! Mary felt as if she had been struck by lightning! And not just once, but countless times! Right now, she was all burned and even crispy! Poor little thing! The womanâs mind went blank. âHave a cup of tea to calm down.â âYou donât have to feel embarrassed,â William said as he poured her a cup of tea. âActually, Iâve been misunderstood quite a bit,â he said with a smile. âUgly, disfigured, abusive, perverted.â The man gracefully poured himself another cup of tea. âCompared to theseâ¦â. âOld.â
âAn elder.â
âHe loved me so much.â âHe pursued you like crazy.â With every word he said, Maryâs face turned a little red. By the time he finished, the womanâs face was so red and hot that it could fry eggs. âHowever, there are some things you said that might come true.â Mary was stunned and thought about it carefully.
She had told him that he was old, loved her, and⦠The woman quickly picked up the teacup and took two sips of it. What would come true had to be his age, right! Yes, it must be age. Everyone will become old, right? Definitely⦠definitely not the one about how he loved her so muchâ¦
As expected, Mary calmed down a lot after the warm tea entered her stomach.
Chapter 77 Are You Caileeing Your Love? She took a deep breath, raised her head, and smiled awkwardly at William, âIL. thought that the Teacher Notman that Sherry introduced to me should be an old manâ¦â
âThatâs whyâ¦â William looked at her face indifferently with his obsidian-like eyes, âI thought it was because I couldnât understand emojis?â
ââ¦â Mary
âI am narrow-minded. I think I am self-righteous!â Mary admitted her mistake.
âAlright, donât be so nervous.â
The man interrupted her lightly. Mary pursed her lips, looked at him timidly, and obediently stopped talking.
This matter was indeed her fault. She really did not think Teacher Notman could be Williamâ¦
Now that the truth had been exposed, she couldnât be more embarrassed. William was her husband. She could not hide from him. They slept in the same room every day, in the same bed. And they even talked about having a daughter⦠Looking at the womanâs blushing face, William smiled helplessly, âIâm not here to listen to your apology.â âEver since I was a child, I always know what I am going to do,â the man said in a low voice.
âOther than things that Iâm interested in, I donât care about anything else. I never bother to learn these things.â
âI married you because Steve and James liked you.â
Mary twisted her hands under the table.
She knew that what he said was the truth.
Butâ¦
When he said these words so casually, she felt a little uncomfortable. âI am 28 years old this year, five years older than you.â âMy environment is very different from yours.â âIn the past, I never felt that five years was such a big gap, nor did I feel that environment was so important.â
Chapter 72 Are You Confering Your Love? âBut now, I can feel that you and I are very far away.â The light in Maryâs eyes gradually dimmed. Very⦠very far away? Actually, itâs not that far, is it⦠She was already trying her best to shrink the distance and adapt to the identity of Mrs. Notman⦠âSo in the future.â âI will try my best to find time to understand emojis and memes and the entertainment industry, etc.,â William said solemnly. Mary looked up in shock. âI am older than you and smarter than you,â the man in front of him said with his thin lips slightly raised. âSo, let me eliminate the distance between you and me.â Mary stared at him in a daze, feeling every cell in her body trembling slightly. â⦠I donât understand what you mean.â She heard her trembling voice. âI want to try to understand you.â âWhen I married you, it was because of Steve and James.â The man looked at her indifferently. âBut now, I want to know you and get closer to you.â Mary felt that she was floating in the air. Williamâs words made her feel as if she was stepping on clouds. Everything seemed unreal. She never dreamed that William would speak to her like this. He did not say any ambiguous words, but his deep voice, his affectionate gaze, and every word he said⦠It made her feel excited. However, this was not enough! She pursed her lips and looked up at him fearfully. âMr. Notman, are youâ¦â âAre you confessing your love to me?â âArenât you nervous now?â the man asked with a faint smile.
Mary was stunned.
It seemed like⦠she was really not nervous anymore.
Chapter 72 Are You Confessing Your Love? Now, her mind was filled with his heart-stirring words. How could she still be nervous? âThatâs good.â
The man gracefully put down the teacup. âLetâs continue to talk about the matter of you slandering me as an old man.â
Mary,ââ¦â
So this man was just bluffing and saying all this to ease the awkward atmosphere? But what he saidâ¦
was too sincere. She almost believed it.
Thinking of this, she lowered her head dejectedly. âAlright, I was wrong.â âI shouldnât think so stereotypically. Just because you donât understand emojis doesnât mean youâre old.â
After she finished speaking, she looked up at his face. âTeacher Notman, calm down.â âIâm not angry.â
âI still want to hear you tell me how we fell in love.â
ââ¦â Mary. Again? She took a deep breath and pursed her lips. âThen, Teacher Notman, in order to express my apology,â she said. âI grant you a wish.â âReally?â William raised an eyebrow.
âReally.â
The woman nodded seriously. âBut it has to be something Iâm capable of.â
âIf you want me to give you money, I canât.â âAlso, donât say you want a daughter. I canât guarantee that it would be a daughter, not a son.â
âDonât worry,â William said with a faint smile. âYou have already signed an agreement about giving birth to a daughter. I wonât do anything unnecessary.â Mary, ââ¦â
The man looked at her blushing little face and narrowed his dark eyes slightly. âHowever, I do have something that I need you to do.â
