Nicolae kissed Marie and vented all his longing for years. Marie, who felt her c.h.e.s.t pounding, subconsciously welcomed his kiss.
Tears dripped down her cheeks as she wrapped her arms around Nicolae's neck and kissed the man's lips softly.
It was like ... she didn't need an explanation. Stories ould wait ...
Right now, her heart really felt warm and comfortable in the arms of this man. Marie thought that her feelings for Nicolae had been buried years ago and that she had managed to live quietly with Summer alone.
But ... at this moment, when their bodies were touching and Nicolae's lips kissed her lips, the love that had been stored deep inside her heart, rose up so strongly and came to life.
"Marie ..." Nicolae stopped his kiss and looked at Marie's face which was only a few centimeters away from his and observed her.
Marie was now 28 years old, but her face had hardly changed. She still looked exactly like the last time he saw her. Only her hair color was getting lighter. Her small peach eyes and tiny nose were still in contrast with her full red lips.
She was the spitting image of Summer. The most striking difference was only the color of their eyes. Marie had light brown eyes while Summer's eyes were purplish-blue.
Ahh ... the purple color in Summer's eyes must have been passed down from the Linden family, just like his brother, Alaric and his nephews, Irish and Scotland, the twins.
They had not seen each other in six years. Even though they were married in the past, in fact, there was no romantic relationship between them at all. The feelings of love she had for Nicolae were one-sided. Nicolae wasn't like this before ...
Even when they had slept together at the time, Nicolae must have considered it as casual s.e.x. This is the modern times where people were used to having s.e.x.u.a.l relations without a relationship, as long as they do it in consensual.
Marie admitted her mistake at that time. She really liked Nicolae, she even fell in love with the man when she saw how good Nicolae was to her, who was just a stranger to him. She saw Nicolae as a doting father, and he was very kind to help Marie fulfill her mother's last wish before she passed away.
At that time, Marie had selfishly lied to Nicolae by saying that she was not ovulating when they slept together. She thought, even if she got pregnant, she would not demand anything from Nicolae. Marie just wanted to have a family after her mother died.
Even so, Marie couldn't help feeling sad when she couldn't find Nicolae and thought he was dead. Marie then considered it her karma for lying, so she must raise her child alone.
After Summer was born, Marie never regretted her actions. Summer became the source of her joy. For the first time, Marie felt her life was filled with happiness, and she had unconditional love for a human being.
So ... now, when suddenly Nicolae appeared like magic ... Marie did not know what to do. She never expected something like this would happen in her life.
"Marie ..." Nicolae called Marie's name again, and the girl raised her face. The freckles on her cheeks looked even more noticeable when she was blushing like this. She looked really adorable.
"Yes, Nic?" Marie stared at Nicolae.
"Marry me," Nicolae said straightforwardly. "I was despondent when I learned that you have annulled our marriage. I felt very stupid for asking you to do it. At that time, I did not want to tie you down at all. I wanted you to live freely after your mother died and I left."
Marie's eyes went round at his words. She had just wondered how she should behave towards Nicolae after being separated from him for six years.
And now, suddenly the man proposed. This time he sounded earnest. His voice was different from when he pretended to propose in front of her mother.
Nicolae did not want to make small talk by asking if Marie had a boyfriend. He assumed Marie had no boyfriend nor husband because he heard from Summer how her mother raised her on her own. Marie also did not mention anything about other men who could help and protect her.
Therefore, with confidence, he immediately asked Marie to marry him again, this time for real. However ... after a while, he still did not hear the answer from Marie. Slowly, worry crept in the man's c.h.e.s.t.
Was... Marie not willing to marry him? Did she actually have a boyfriend ...?
"Why ... didn't you say anything?" Nicolae asked her in a slightly worried tone. "Are you not willing?"
Marie was moved from her shock and slowly shook her head. "It is not that..."
"Then?" A glimmer of hope returned to Nicolae's heart.
"I was just surprised. This is completely unexpected," said Marie, who finally smiled.
"I don't have a ring because I didn't prepare for this at all ... but I don't want to delay confessing my feelings to you. I have kept it in my heart for too long, and I don't want to hold it back anymore," Nicolae got on one knee and held Marie's hands. "Marie ... I love you. For all these years, I have always been thinking about you. I always hope to return to that time in Singapore and confess my love to you. I am very happy that God gave me a second chance and brought you back into my life."
"Oh, Nic ..." Marie could only stare at him wide-eyed and stood transfixed in her place. Her eyes were starting to moisten with tears. Her lips curved up slowly, and her smile became so wide that her eyes seemed to disappear into two single lines covered by a long and thick curtain of eyelashes.
"Do you want to stay here with me? I'll tell you all everything... We can exchange news and track down bad people who want to kidnap our daughter and punish them," Nicolae said again. "I can't let you leave me .. I won't let it."
