Unspoken Love novel Chapter 16

When Brodie first got this news, he couldn't believe it.

He couldn't believe that the woman who once treasured him would have an affair.

Until now, he could clearly remember his first sight of Luna.

Ariana was his college classmate. Once, when sending her the materials of the students' union, he met Luna who was doing housework.

Luna had cat-like eyes and was always quiet. Every time she peeked at Brodie, she would be like a frightened bird and then shifted her sight away. Only a hint of blush remained at her corners of eyes and cheeks and it seemed to never fade away.

Luna was the illegitimate daughter of the Covey family. Her mother, Jessica, was bad to her and always scolded her. Sometimes when talking with Ariana, Brodie saw Jessica scolding her. Every time he came, Luna would peek at him.

In her eyes were shyness and sweetness.

Brodie knew that such a girl had probably never fallen in love, so she even didn't know how to conceal it when falling for someone. She was so shy, like a bud about to blossom. And she was also so fragile, as if she was trying hard to be shy.

Brodie remembered that once in a midsummer, it was on his birthday. After his birthday party, Luna ran to his home to send him a hand-made scarf. She said although it was summer, she still wanted to send him a scarf. She hoped that Brodie would remember her sending a scarf to him in summer and would miss her in winter when wearing it.

After saying that, she fled. It seemed that she had used all her strength to profess.

He was too young to say any sweet words at that time. He grabbed the hood of her sweatshirt, pulled her back to him, and tilted his head, staring at her with a smile, "Do you like me?"

Her entire face was like crumpled rose petals, so beautiful and shy as if sweet juice in it could be squeezed out. She looked at him in a daze. It seemed like an evil to her to show even a little bit of her affection for him. She looked both terrified and nervous.

Then she nodded at a loss.

She asked him like a fool, "Can I love you?"

In this relationship, he always thought he could get everything under control. He witnessed and helped her grow little by little. She grew from the little girl who was so shy as to be afraid of others' attention into a graceful woman. It was he who helped her to adapt to various occasions in grace. It was he who taught her all kinds of knowledge and skills bit by bit. It was also he who witnessed her becoming confident and calm.

But when facing him, she was still a little afraid. She was still shy and couldn't feel at ease.

Thus, he always felt that in her eyes, he was different from others. She was always sweet on him.

But the reality gave him a slap on the face.

Luna chose to be away from him when his company was in the greatest crisis. And then she even got married abroad.

He couldn't believe it and then let his secretary check it again and again.

Luna did marry Jason five years ago and they got registered, so their marriage was legal. They also had a daughter named Cindy, who was right five years old.

He sneered.

He was like a fool. Even when Luna's last call came, he was still willing to believe unconditionally that the child was he and Luna's. He always chose to believe her involuntarily.
