A Beautiful Misunderstanding

Chapter 60 Don't Come To Me

Essie knew Hanson and his family quite well. Even though to an outsider his family seemed picture perfect, the reality was very different. On the surface, there was harmony but deep down they went through an undercurrent. He may be the only son of the chairman, yet that didn't bring him any respect since he was still a bastard. Mrs. Xia and her three daughters were like tigers. And from what she knew, they would never let him take charge of the Bella Group.

If he married Sunny, his life would change for the better. Sunny's family was powerful enough to support him and elevate his status. This alliance promised him success.

Essie's thoughts were in a jumble. And Hanson seemed to understand what was going on in her mind. Flashing her a smile, he said, "Don't worry, I'll find a way to stop the wedding. What will happen? Nothing! I might have to fall again." His words were light, but caused a great disturbance in her heart.

'Did he fall down on purpose in order to delay the wedding?' she thought.

"Hanson..." Her heart was trembling, and millions of emotions surged forward.

She couldn't believe he cared so deeply for her. The man she had loved all her life was beginning to reciprocate her feelings!

She felt a little flattered but this was too good to be true. Just like sitting in the flying chariot, someone had taken her to cloud nine. The weight of this news was burdening her.

He seemed to have read her mind. He brought her face close to his and caressed it gently. "You are very important to me, so I can't afford to lose you. Promise me you won't give up on me. I need more time, okay?"

She lowered her head, and for some reason, a person she shouldn't have thought of, emerged in her mind. It was like a ghost, wandering everywhere. No matter how hard she tried to bring her focus back to Hanson, her thoughts drifted back to Zac. It wandered in her mind and then chased her, until she was fully consumed by it.

'Why am I thinking about him?' she admonished herself. At this time, he was probably trying to please his ex-girlfriend. He was probably showering her with love and kiss. In Zac's eyes, Essie was nothing but a clown with whom he could enjoy when he was bored. All his actions proved it.

Seeing that she wasn't giving a reply, Hanson's heart tightened. "Don't you want to wait for me?" He was in pain seeing her hesitancy.

She shook her head and repressed Zac's thoughts. "No, I will wait for you." She gritted her teeth, as if she was mad at the shadow for spoiling her beautiful moment.
