Surprisingly L did not turn around even until five minutes after London had confessed his sin. The man's c.h.e.s.t palpitated. Was this because L was so angry that she needed time to calm down before venting her wrath?
"L ... please say something..." said London in a piteous voice. He touched L's shoulder with trembling hands.
"Eh?" L immediately turned her head and looked at London with rounded eyes. "Why aren't you sleeping? Didn't you have a headache?"
L's soft and attentive voice made London's heart struck by great fear. Did L deliberately act nicely toward him before unleashing her wrath like the calm before the storm?
The calmer the atmosphere, the more terrible the storm will be.
"I ..." London swallowed hard.
L hurriedly placed her wine glass on the table beside her chair and stood up. She touched London's forehead and checked his temperature.
"Are you sick?" asked the girl. "Can't sleep? Hm ... you don't have a fever ... but your face looks very pale ..."
She c.a.r.e.s.sed London's face and stroked his hair attentively.
London didn't understand what magic was this...
"I can't sleep. I thought about everything carefully and, finally, I realized that I ..." London was in the middle of his words when L suddenly pulled his hand to walk back toward his room.
"You must not be sick for long. I need your help to take care of Lily and this house ..." L murmured. As soon as they arrived in London's bedroom, she pushed the man's body onto the bed and pressed his c.h.e.s.t with her tiny hand. "You wait here. I'll get the medicine that Doctor Alice gave me. It is very effective for headaches."
How strange ... very strange ... thought London. He did not understand what had just happened. Why isn't L mad at him?
Was L teaching him a lesson?
London still wondered and couldn't answer his own question, when L returned to his room with a pill and a glass of water.
"Drink ..." L said firmly while sitting on the edge of the bed. London was about to refuse because he was actually not sick. But seeing the serious look on L's face, he could not object.
Finally, he took the pill and handed the glass back to L.
"L.. I want to..." London stopped mid-sentence as L looked at him with a frown.
"What did you say?" She said. And suddenly, as if aware of something, the girl sighed.
"What's wrong?" Now it was London's turn to be confused.
"Ahh ... I forgot I was still listening to music," the girl said. She pulled her beautiful loose hair to the back of her ears and took out small wireless earphones from her ears. She put the two earphones in her pocket then looked at London deeply. "What did you say? The medicine was bitter? Sorry, well, all drugs are bitter. If you are sick, you have to take it. Hmm ... by the way, I had never seen you sick before..."
"I'm not sick," said London in a choked voice. He just realized that apparently, L did not hear any of his confessions.
That's why the girl was not angry at all.
Ouch ... what do I do? Do I have to repeat my confession?
London was conflicting. Doing it once already felt so terrible. He did not know how he could repeat all his words spoken on the veranda.
"You are obviously sick, your face looks pale," said L. She shook her head with a motherly expression that reminded London of his mother. The girl touched London's cheeks attentively. "You don't have to pretend to be strong in front of me. Humans must have weaknesses and limited physical capacity. I know you have worked very hard to take care of all of our renovations and our move here. They must have made you very tired, to the point that finally fell ill like this. I'm sorry that I haven't had the chance to thank you properly."
London was stunned to hear L.'s words.
This is not a dream, right?
Secretly he pinched his own waist.
He looked at L with a look of disbelief.
"I know that I've been very temperamental and sometimes curt to you ..." L continued her words in a very soft voice. London didn't even know L had this kind of soft side in her. The soft side of L was apparently very sweet and made her look more feminine and beautiful. London's ears perked up, trying to catch every word L said to him. "I'm used to taking care of myself, and can't trust others. I know it's a bad habit ... but I can't change it easily. Since in the orphanage, I have to always be selfish and only think about myself because other people won't help me."
"L ... you can trust me ... I will do anything to make you happy ..." London said in a low voice. Every time he heard L talk about her life in the orphanage, he felt so bad.
"I know ..." L smiled and touched London's hand and patted it softly. "While I was sitting outside, I thought a lot about us, and how much you've always helped me without complaining. I've never met anyone like you. You're a hard worker, you'd do anything for Lily and me, and you also keep all your words. I don't think I'll ever meet a man as good as you in this world."
London swallowed hard at L's words. His c.h.e.s.t was pounding.
"Therefore, I want us to turn over a new leaf. I will forget everything you did in the past, about how you were following me and your connection to the mafia or whatever it is. Let it be a part of the past. I believe in you and I know everything you did was for my good and Lily's sake. I will also break off my engagement with Danny Swann. He and I have a past relationship that I cannot explain now, but I promise to explain it someday. "
"You ... you are going to break off the engagement with Danny Swann?" London's voice was full of hope. He was happy as a button to hear this statement.
L nodded. "When I decided to choose Lily, I decided to stay. That means I will stay with you and Lily."
"Oh, L ..." London rubbed his teary eyes. He was very touched.
"Why did you suddenly make that decision?" asked London in a voice filled with novelty.
"This is not a sudden decision. I've been thinking about it for five days," L. answered. "You're a good man, you're also a good father. I'd be lucky to be able to live with you and Lily."
"Wait a minute ..." London got out of bed and hurriedly got down on one knee before L. "You mean ... you ... you want to marry me?"
L rolled her eyes, but this time she smiled.
"As usual ... you can't do it right. No flowers ... no ring," said the girl pretending to sulk. "You..."
London knew that L was willing to accept his proposal. He didn't know what happened, but clearly this time L gave a clear sign that she was willing to spend her life with London and Lily ... and she was ready to marry the man.
"I'll get the ring ready as soon as possible ..." London whispered in a voice filled with happiness. He got up and pulled L to his c.h.e.s.t and hugged her tightly. He then cupped her face and landed a passionate kiss on L's s.e.xy lips. "Thank you..."
