âBecause you look like youâre very sad,â she said.
He was taken aback. Did he really look that sad right now?
She lifted her hand and lightly traced his eye corner with her fingertips. âLike youâre about to cry.â
His hand suddenly grabbed her fingers, âIf I really want to cry because I canât get something, what would you do?â
âCry because you canât get something?â She laughed, âAre you a child? Besides, when you were little, I never saw you cry because you couldnât get something!â
âGrowing up, some things will always change,â he said.
âThatâs true,â she thought for a moment, âAs long as what you want is not impossible or goes against morals, I will definitely help you get it, so you wonât cry!â
âReally?â He looked at her with a gaze that seemed to be imbued with deep meaning, âThen in the future, if I really want that thing, please help me!â
She was a bit embarrassed by his gaze, and her face inexplicably turned red.
The way he was staring at her just now was like the way the male lead in movies and TV shows looks at the female lead, and it made her increasingly uncomfortable.
Subconsciously, she suddenly lifted the other hand that he hadnât caught and used it to cover his eyes directly.
âWhatâs wrong?â He stood still, letting her hand cover his eyes.
âDonât look at me with that kind of gaze like just now!â She said, that kind of gaze would make her feel a strange feeling that she couldnât even explain to herself.
His body seemed to stiffen slightly, and after a moment, he slowly said, âOkay!â
She finally removed her hand from his face, and he looked at her with eyes that had indeed returned to their usual state.
She breathed a sigh of relief and asked, âBy the way, what exactly is that thing you want?â
His eyelashes trembled slightly, and with half-lowered eyes, he said, âYouâll know in the future.â
âOkay then, if you really canât get it, you have to tell me! I donât want to see you cry!â she said in a carefree manner.
âOkay then, if you really canât get it, make sure to let me know!
I donât want to see you cry!â She said in a carefree manner.
âOkay, I will definitely say it!â he said.
What he wants is her love!
If sheâs truly willing to give herself to him, heâll cherish every moment of his remaining life with her.
After the nurse finished changing Veronicaâs medication and left the room, Mason walked in.
He didnât say anything, just looked at her quietly.
âWhatâs wrong? Youâre not saying anything?â she asked curiously.
He pursed his lips and after a while, he said, âLionel can be released on bail tomorrow.â
âThen my dad and the others should be able to breathe a sigh of relief,â Veronica said.
âBut for now, itâs only limited to bail. As for whether or not he will be convicted, weâll have to wait for the courtâs verdict,â said Mason.
âWill he⦠go to jail? Or maybe a juvenile detention center?â
she asked. After all, she had been with Lionel for so many years and knew that her younger brother wasnât really a bad person by nature. He had just been spoiled by his stepmother and spent all his time with bad friends, neglecting his studies and pretending to be an adult in society.
