Mommy Alert! The CEO Daddy Won't Stop Courting-Chapter 842: He Is the Hero in My Heart…

When Arnold said this, he used a lot of courage.

Her sly eyes fixed on Mark without blinking, her small hands clenched tightly, waiting for Mark’s response.

Mark, with blurry, drunken eyes, looked at Arnold and laughed lowly, "What reason could a little girl like you have? Isn’t it just for fun?"

"No, it’s not!" Arnold said firmly.

Then Arnold reached out to support Mark again.

As she helped Mark up, she said, "I’ll help you up first. If the leader wants to know, I’ll definitely tell you later."

Arnold cross-dressed as a man to enter the international police force, not for fun, but to fulfill a dream she had since her youth.

For this dream, Arnold could endure any hardship.

Every day, she trained diligently, making herself stronger than men, and finally fulfilled her wish by joining the most formidable team that made all criminal organizations worldwide tremble—the team with him.

Arnold slowly approached him, joined his small team, and became his deputy, which was the thing Arnold was most proud of.

But before Arnold could confess her feelings, she learned that he already had someone in his heart.

When she learned this, Arnold hid and cried bitterly.

But Arnold wished him well, hoping he could achieve what he desired.

At the same time, Arnold decided to always hide her feelings, only remaining as the perfect deputy who could take a bullet for him on the battlefield. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

However, the woman he loved did not reciprocate his feelings, and he decided not to pursue it anymore, choosing only to silently guard her happiness...

Arnold understood the pain of burying someone in her heart, silently guarding, and loving without return.

At this moment, seeing the man so pained and troubled, Arnold didn’t want to hide any longer, wanting to open her heart to him and confess her feelings.

But it was obvious that such a place wasn’t ideal for this.

Arnold supported Mark, helping him into the car.

She drove with the drunken Mark, and before long they arrived at the riverside nearby.

Arnold opened the car door and got out, leaning against the car, the cool wind by the river blowing through her short hair, making her appear more valiant and spirited.

Mark also got out of the car, standing beside Arnold, leaning against the car as well.

Looking at the endless river under the pitch-black night sky, Mark spoke softly, "Tell me, why did you cross-dress and come here? I will certainly keep it a secret for you."

After speaking, without waiting for Arnold to speak, Mark turned to look at Arnold and continued, "But Arnold, listen to the leader’s advice. It’s fine to have fun, but this is no place for a girl like you, you should return."

Arnold said nothing, quietly looking at the water in front of her.

Though she had decided to confess her feelings, she still needed courage.

After an unknown amount of time, just when Mark thought Arnold didn’t want to speak, Arnold finally spoke slowly, "Leader, I never joined the international police force for fun."

"It was a dream, a dream rooted deeply in my heart since I was young, prompting me to keep striving to fulfill it!"

Saying this, Arnold looked at Mark.

Her small hands involuntarily tightened, gathering all her courage, and she finally spoke, "Leader, I came to the special forces because of you, and I joined the international police force because of you!"

Arnold’s bright, sly black eyes looked straight at the slightly drunk man in front of her.

She knew that in fact, he wasn’t drunk.

He could understand what she was saying, perceive her feelings.

She wanted to gamble, and after gambling, if she lost, she could leave...

Arnold always knew she couldn’t hope for too much, but she couldn’t control her heart.

She wanted to get close to the man, wanted to fight alongside him, even more so wanted to be the most important woman in his life.

And now that the woman he loved was married and he had chosen to let go, why couldn’t she fight for herself once?

This man was so exceptional, that from the moment he appeared in her life, she memorized him firmly, letting him occupy her heart for ten years.

Now if he accepted her, she would be very happy, very joyful.

But if he didn’t accept her feelings, after ten years of love, it was time to let go.

Hearing Arnold’s words, Mark was extremely shocked.

He never imagined that Arnold would say such things.

Mark looked at Arnold and slowly spoke, "Arnold, you..."

"Leader, please let me finish, alright?" Arnold interrupted Mark.

Arnold withdrew her gaze from Mark’s face, turned to the calm surface of the river, and slowly began to recount, "Arnold was only twelve ten years ago, at that time I was kidnapped by the DM Organization, becoming a hostage that could lose her life at any moment to the hands of the bandits."

"And at that time, you were eighteen, already a very outstanding new recruit in the M Country’s special forces."

"That hostage rescue mission fell on your special team, the Flying Hawk, and I was the little girl you rescued from the kidnappers."

"Not only did you save my life back then, but your timely appearance also saved my soul, sparing me from my nightmare..."

Arnold didn’t continue the story because it was a dark memory, a nightmare she never wanted to mention.

But because of Mark, her nightmare didn’t truly begin and was ended.

Thus, Mark was not only Arnold’s lifesaver but also the dawn that illuminated the dark memories for Arnold, the warmth Arnold longed for.

Because of Mark, twelve-year-old Arnold was spared from those perverse torments.

After calming her emotions, Arnold continued, "But you got injured that time... Fresh blood kept dripping from your chest, yet you didn’t care."

"You smiled warmly at me and told me: Don’t be afraid, I’m here."

"You probably didn’t know how warm your smile was at that time?"

"Even until now, I still remember your smile, remember the gentle warmth of your body when you held me, and at that moment, you were the hero in my heart..."

"As I grew up, the hero in my heart became the goal I kept striving for."

"I took you as an example, worked hard to get into the police academy, completed one arduous task after another, and followed your footsteps to the international police force to find you..."

As she spoke, Arnold’s mood slowly dropped, "But leader, you already forgot about me. Maybe because you saved so many people over the years, and I was just one of the many you’ve rescued."
