The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1845

She had steeled herself, trying to give her past its due, to bring some

semblance of balance to her heart.

But now, with Morrison like this, she couldn’t tell if his actions were simply

erasing his past misdeeds, or if her heart was too soft—ready to forgive him

unconditionally, just because it was Morrison.

Yes. She couldn’t bear it.

This was her life now. Whatever Morrison did to her in the future was her own

doing, because she loved him.

From the start, she was a complete and utter loser.

Enter title…

Her gaze lingered on the half-eaten eggs, the remnants of oatmeal, and

sandwiches.d2

How much had he tried to taste? Was she truly “getting back” at him? Why did it

feel like she was punishing herself?

She washed the dishes, dried them and put them away, then grabbed her coat

from the dining room chair and slipped it on.

Morrison, buttoning up his own jacket, hurried down the stairs.

“Stay inside for a bit. I’ll go start the car and get the heater running. When you

hear the horn, come out.”

Rose said nothing, and Morrison didn’t linger. He headed for the front door.

Watching his retreating figure, Rose felt an impulse to chase after him, to

embrace him and compromise. She wanted to tell him she didn’t care anymore,

about anything. She wanted to see his wounds and ask him to never force

himself to do such things again.

The impulse grew, snowballing until she actually ran after him. As Morrison was

opening the door, he was suddenly gripped from behind in a tight hug. He

paused, a chill breeze slipping in as he quickly shut the door and turned to face

her.

“What’s wrong?”

Rose bit her lip, looking up at him, her eyes trembling. “Morrison, I give up,

really. I’ve been a complete disaster from the start, so I don’t care anymore.

“Whatever you do from here on out, whether I’m heartbroken, sad, or

disappointed, even if there are things that can’t be undone, I accept it. If that day

comes, it’ll just be my own damn fault. I accept it, because that’s my fate.

“So, Morrison, don’t force yourself to do things you don’t like, don’t get hurt, and

don’t let anything happen to you. I can’t stand to see you suffer. I love you, no

matter what the outcome, as long as you’re still you. I don’t want to see you
