Please Love Me, Mr. George novel Chapter 363

“Bye!” Dennis hanged up.

Standing behind him and watching his broad figure, I felt my heart aching.

I had thought that my pains were cured.

But they were just buried for a limited time.

Noticing my approaching, the man turned back, with worry and agony on his handsome face, which was replaced with tenderness instantly, “You woke. Are you hungry?”

I shook my head, walking slowly towards him.

Burying myself in his arms to seek some sense of safety, I said, “No, I am okay.”

That was true. I was just failing to control my emotions from time to time.

He patted my back as if I were a child, “Okay. Just take a good rest. Everything will be okay.”

…

Dennis had been home for days, turning his work upon Marcus.

The argument between Dennis and Yara George was unexpected.

It was originally a conversation but turned into a dispute.

I got out of my room to see what was going on.

The woman cried, “She will ruin you! There are so many desirable girls from the aristocracy in this city, and why must you choose her? You and Hank could’ve cooperated and prospered together but what are you two doing now? Fighting for a woman?”

“I love her.” The man said firmly.

Though I couldn’t discern his expression, these words surprised me for I had never heard them from him before.

It was the first time.

In a low but firm voice, he explained, “It’s not that she cannot leave me but that I cannot be without her. I will stay with her even if she becomes a crazy person. I will try my best to take care of her as long as she is with me.”

The woman shook her head; whether out of disbelief or despair I couldn’t tell.

Dennis continued, “You have no idea that she was a pure and happy girl when I first met her at J University and when I married her. But it was my fault that made her become like this after those seven years. Anyone can leave her; but not me.”

“You’re crazy!” The woman became furious, “have you ever considered your future child? She has severe depression and cannot control herself when she got an outbreak. And she might kill herself and your child as well!”

The man seemed indifferent, “I won’t have another child with her. Clarrie is our legitimate daughter.”

“But you are not her biological father!”

“what’s the difference?” The man pressed his lips, “I cannot have my child and Clarrie is enough for me.”

Almost petrified, the woman replied, “Have you lost your mind? You are the only descendent of the George family! How could say that for your grandfather’s sake?”

The man was about to say something when he saw me standing at the head of the staircases.

The gloom on his face suddenly turned into tenderness; with a smile, he waved towards me, “Come here.”

Looking at him, I felt my heart aching.

The woman stared at me in resentment, though repressing her anger, “Ms. Kennedy, must you importune and devastate him? Since the Lewis and the Kennedy family are both desirable places for you, why must you stay here? Do you know that since you came, the fame of the George family has been wrecked by the scandals one after another? Do you have an idea what was Dennis busy with these days?”

“That’s enough!” Dennis tried to stop her but I said, “Go on.”

She sneered defiantly, “The George’s has lost quite a few contracts to the Gibson’s, and the market value of the George’s has hit the nadir. True, Dennis can do anything for you but must you be so selfish? You cling to him and Clarrie, the child of the Gibson family, which made him a joke in the public eyes. You cannot bear his child and you are ruining his fame, which he has spent years establishing, and his year-long friendship with Hank Gibson just because he must have Clarrie stay with you!”

I shook my head, trying to control my emotions.

I never wanted to ruin Dennis.

Holding the man with my quivering hands, I looked at him desperately, who shouted towards the woman, “Get out!”

Shocked at this, the woman stepped back and turned away.

My body was shivering and I was sweating heavily though it was late autumn.

Dennis held me tightly in his arms, “Don’t listen to her. Nothing went wrong because of you, whether it is me or for the company. You are my legitimate wife, right? No one can separate us, Okay? Everything is okay and will be okay, don’t you believe me?”

I nodded, despite my strongly shivering body.

How did things become like this?

It had been quite a while before I calmed down.

With my body curling up like a shrimp in his arms, I felt quite safe.

I said, with a hoarse voice, “Dan, I might become a crazy woman someday and will probably lose my memories. You should find a better girl instead of staying with me.”

I was scared by the scenario that I became insane and lost all my memories and the ability to live independently. I would rather kill myself than let Dennis see that.

Dennis held me more tightly, in a firm voice as usual, “That won’t happen, honey. I will stay with you and so will Clarrie. We will be okay whatever happens.”

He was just comforting me, and himself and I knew that.

I seemed a burden to him now.

Looking at him in the eye, I felt pain in my heart, “I was wrong. I was wrong from the beginning. I shouldn’t have married you. I should’ve expected that there was no way to let go of the deaths of my child and Dianna. You can leave Pearson but I cannot get rid of Hank. You owed her a promise but I am owing him my life! Unless I die, I cannot pay him off. Dennis, why don’t we break up?”
