Chapter 921: Chapter 474: Extra: Loving You Can’t Be Summed Up in a Few Words 2_2

"No, it’s just that I’m a bit worried about the many temptations of the future, some people just can’t resist them."

"What kind of temptations are you referring to?" he asked knowingly.

"Of course, I’m talking about the little girls... I just suddenly thought, women age quickly, and in a few years when I’m truly old and faded, you’ll still look the same as you do now. I’m afraid you’ll really start to resent me then..."

Skyler Jones furrowed his brow slightly, seemingly in thought, and then answered earnestly, "The future really is hard to predict..."

What?

"Skyler Jones!!" Christine Quinn yelled his full name again, "How dare you!!"

Skyler laughed, "I wasn’t finished talking... Although the future is hard to predict, I’m quite strange; I dislike trouble, so I prefer constancy, I like to do things alone, sleep while holding just one person, and only share intimacy with that person..."

His words made her cheeks flush with embarrassment, she murmured, "Alright, I’ll let you off the hook..."

Skyler gently pecked her blushing cheek, "Pleasing you is really not easy."

Christine was amused by his words, "Didn’t you know? Women are always difficult to please."

Seeing the radiant smile on her face, Skyler’s lips curled up contentedly.

Christine felt a little shy under his gaze, and with a red face changed the topic, "By the way, are we close to our destination?"

"Hmm."

Christine looked out the window with curiosity, but unfortunately, it was pitch black outside, so she couldn’t see anything. "I’m really curious!"

Skyler still didn’t tell Christine, he only stroked her silky hair, smiling gently.

An hour later.

"How am I supposed to walk with my eyes closed!" In front of the cabin door, Christine asked Skyler nervously with her eyes shut.

"I’ll carry you."

"Huh?"

Before Christine could finish speaking, Skyler had already lifted her onto his back.

"Ah!"

Christine was startled, her hands clenched tightly around Skyler’s neck.

Skyler, holding Christine’s legs, reminded her again, "You haven’t opened your eyes, have you?" 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

Christine rested on Skyler’s broad back, answering truthfully, "No, you told me not to open them!"

"Good girl."

Skyler carried Christine step by step out of the cabin door...

This was the first time Christine had been carried by Skyler...

The feeling was indescribably satisfying, as if she was his entire world, with each step he took, he was bearing her...

There was a moment when she thought, if they could grow old together like this, her life would be complete.

Christine followed Skyler’s instructions and kept her eyes closed, until she felt the light brighten and knew they were indoors, she then asked, "Are we there yet?"

"Yes."

Skyler carried Christine into the room, only after placing her on the ground did he say, "You can open your eyes now."

Christine’s heart pounded with nerves, unable to guess where he had brought her.

However, when Christine slowly opened her eyes, the surroundings left her momentarily stunned.

"This, this..."

Christine blankly looked around, at the hotel’s decor, the hotel’s lighting, the hotel’s furnishings...

"A hotel?"

Christine looked at Skyler in disbelief, her eyes wide, "You made me close my eyes just to show me this unknown hotel?"

Skyler chuckled, gently supporting Christine, "This is the hotel where we’ll be staying tonight."

Christine made a sound of acknowledgment, her lashes drooping with disappointment.

"What’s wrong?"

Christine shook her head and glanced around again, "This hotel isn’t bad."

Skyler wrapped his arm around Christine’s waist, "I’ll tell you where we are tomorrow."

Christine obediently nodded.

Skyler, of course, knew why Christine was feeling down at the moment...

She must have expected him to surprise her, not anticipate that opening her eyes would reveal just an ordinary hotel.

"Disappointed?"

"No..." Christine leaned on Skyler’s shoulder, "Having you by my side is already enough for me." She was truthful, really, it didn’t matter whether there was a surprise or not, the most important thing was that they were together, with him by her side, she could relax and snuggle against him like this.

"After such a long flight, are you tired?"

"A little."

"Then let me carry you to shower."

"No need, I’ll go myself!"

"Alright."

Skyler kissed Christine on the cheek, and she then looked for her pajamas in the suitcase and went into the bathroom.

Entering the bathroom, Christine didn’t immediately shower, but stood in front of the sink, quietly examining herself before washing her face with cold water.

Once again, the icy touch of the water confirmed that everything she was experiencing was indeed real.

She really had come on this trip with Skyler, leaving all their issues behind...

Honestly, she hadn’t expected him to choose "forgiveness"...

Yesterday, she really thought they had reached the end, after all, he was so angry...

At that time, she thought, no matter the outcome, she wouldn’t blame him, because from any perspective, she and he were no longer suited to be together...

She never expected he would choose to forget the past and start anew.

She admitted, when he talked about starting over, she was really touched, but deep down, she knew what happened between her and Jonathon Gibson, if they stayed together, even if he truly didn’t mind, it would always be a thorn in her heart...

But at that moment, she couldn’t refuse him, because she couldn’t let him go, she loved him, she wanted to be with him until they both turned gray...

She would continue to investigate what happened with Jonathon...

She still couldn’t believe what happened that night, because if something really happened, she wouldn’t have felt nothing, she had already lost track of who Jonathon really was, but she was still willing to believe that Jonathon would never do anything to hurt her...

Thinking of this, Christine forced a smile at the mirror.

She must not be defeated by difficulties, she had to solve this with him, but until then, let them comfortably enjoy this journey!
