Chapter 172
“You’re good at everything. What’s not good enough for me? Russel said with a laugh. “Don’t use self–deprecation as a way to reject me”
I sighed inwardly Russel had managed to avoid falling into Bonnie s trap, but it seemed like he was going to get hurt by my stubbornness.
I really wanted the best for him, whenever it was “I don’t want to waste your time, so don’t worry about me. I’m sure there are plenty of women who would love to be with you. Any one of them would be just as good as me, really “I tried to persuade him sincerely.
“Can you give me a chance to prove myself? Two years ago, I was always concerned about Nell it wasn’t until you quietly left for abroad for two years, not even replying to my messages, that I realized that love needs to be fought for and that reason doesn’t always apply.

Russel paused, “Irene, I’ve never confessed my feelings to any woman before. I don’t know what’s considered romantic or passionate, but I will always be by your side. I’m ready to give you everything, anytime you need me”
Even though I didn’t have romantic feelings for Russel, his words touched me deeply
I knew he was serious. He wouldn’t have said such things without careful consideration.
“Can we just let things happen naturally?” I took a step back.
“Okay” A small smile appeared on Russel’s face. He unbuckled his seat belt, “Be careful on your way home.”
