Coolest Girl in Town

Chapter 860 I’m Your Puppy

“You don’t have to do this. It’s my decision and it has nothing to do with the company. I’ve already found a suitable replacement for my position, so the company’s business won’t be affected,” Ariel spoke while pushing his hand away and turning her face away.

Her emotions were everywhere, so she could not control herself and ended up mentioning things she should not have. “What about me?” Danny looked at her solemnly and asked, “Did you ever consider me?”

After letting out a long breath, she forced herself to keep her cold attitude and said, “I wish you a happy marriage, but I’m sorry that I might not be able to attend your wedding.”

“You’re jealous.” He moved forward and almost pressed his whole body onto hers. “You’re sad. You like me, don’t you?”

“No, I don’t.” Ariel stubbornly refused to look at him. “If so, why did you leave without a word when I said I’m getting married? How do you explain that?” Danny pestered on.

Now that she could not retreat anymore, she finally broke down and exclaimed, “Yes!”

Her eyes were widened but filled with reluctance and heartbreak. “I do like you and I did fall for you, but that’s all in the past. You already have someone else and I’ve already missed my chance. Even if… Hmph—”

Without giving her a chance to continue, Danny cupped her face with his hands and kissed her lips. Ariel only resisted for a second before subconsciously reciprocating the kiss.

After Danny noticed that they were both breathing heavily, he carefully let her go. His obsidian eyes were wet with tears and he looked exactly like an abandoned child.

“Ariel, I love you. I love you so much. There’s no fiancé and I’m not going to marry anyone. I did all that to trigger you. I know what I did is too much, but I’m so envious of Jamie. I’m jealous that he has Narissa’s response. I’ve waited seven years and I can’t wait anymore, so I decided to be selfish for once.”
