Can't stop loving you

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Viola and Jennifer returned to the villa.

"What's wrong?" Viola was hold by Jennifer.

"Look at the second floor." Said Jennifer, raising her chin.

Viola looked up and found that the study on the second floor was widely opened, which meant

To verify what she was thinking, Jennifer winked at Viola and smiled with full encouragement. "Now or never, go ahead."

As soon as she finished speaking, she pushed Viola upstairs.

Having no choice, Viola came to the door of the study on the second floor and knocked.

"What's up?" As soon as Maynard raised his head and saw her, he frowned without being noticed. "Come in," he said

Viola nodded and walked in.

She saw that his head was wrapped with gauze and his face was somewhat morbid white. She paused and asked, "Is the wound in the back of your brain okay?"

"I'll be all right in a few days." With his hands on his abdomen, Maynard casually leaned against the back of the chair and said, "You didn't seem to have told me why you came." Viola smiled bitterly and suddenly tightened her left hand which held the amulet. "Actually, there's nothing serious. I just saw you yesterday at the temple."

"No, you are wrong." Maynard said coldly with an expressionless face.

"Yes, I may have a short sight, so it's natural that I make a mistake," answered Viola

Maynard wore a foxy smile and looked at her silently.

Hearing that, a thin layer of cold sweat was immediately shown on Viola's face, which made her hair stand on end. She forced a smile and said, "Mr. Chu, I'm at the temple..." "You just need to give birth to the baby. Don't care about anything else..." Maynard interrupted her coldly, with an impatient expression on his face.

Viola held the amulet more and more tightly and rolled her eyes. "Yes, you are right!"

A gust of rage rose in her heart, and she turned around and ran out.

Maynard pressed the position near to his temple and went on with his work.

Thirty minutes later, he went downstairs.

When Jennifer came out of the kitchen, she saw Maynard and smiled unkindly. "Mr. Chu, what do you think about receiving the love token from Viola?" "What the hell?" Maynard frowned.

"What?" murmured Jennifer with shock

He didn't receive it?

What happened?

A trash can was on the right side of the street two hundred meters away. Holding the amulet in her hand, she wanted to throw it but was not willing to.

She was furious as she thought of the fact that she was about to give something to Maynard, but before she could give it to him, he had already warned her. "Come and catch me, but you can't!"

At this time, a seven-year-old boy with a schoolbag on his back made a face to the back of the boy who was eight years old. When the eight-year-old boy rushed over, the seven-year-old boy ran past Viola, but his backpack accidentally bumped into her. She staggered and almost fell down. When she steadied herself, the amulet in her hand fell into the trash can in front of her.

Viola looked at the two little boys running away, and touched her forehead helplessly.

She struggled for nearly a minute while looking at the amulet lying on the trash can. At last, she gritted her teeth and stamped her feet. She reached for the trash can and picked it up. The passers-by looked at her strangely.

Noticing the stains on the amulet, Viola realized that she had spent a lot of money on it. She felt a sharp pain in her heart.

"Boom!"

A lightning tore the calm sky, and the rain began to fall.

It never occurred to her that it would rain. Viola got stunned.

"Why are you still standing there?"

She didn't come to her senses until she heard an angry voice.

"Come with me."

Maynard grasped her wrist and pulled her to the door of the nearest supermarket to escape from the rain.

When he saw water drops dripping from her face and hair, he took out a handkerchief and wiped them from her face one by one.

Feeling his extremely soft action, Viola looked at him in confusion. "Mr. Chu, why are you here?"

"Do you want me to watch you in the rain?" Maynard sneered.

What he said was a little weird to her, but she didn't know what to say for a while.

"Take out the amulet." Maynard said unpleasantly.

Before Viola could react, she subconsciously took out the amulet.

"I'll take it." Maynard took it and said, "You give a price."

"Why should I?" asked Viola.

She reached out to grab it.

"It's a gift for me. Now it is in my hand, you should be thrilled." Maynard avoided her hand and said as if he took it for granted.

The truths of her heart were already revealed to Viola. She squeezed out a smile that was even uglier than crying and said, "Mr. Chu, I picked it up from the trash can."

"I know." Maynard's face darkened.

She was surprised that he was not a clean freak. Instead, she went on reminding him, "Mr. Chu, it's really me who picked it up from the trash can."

"So noisy!"

Maynard cursed, lowered his head and kissed her chattering lips

It took a while for Viola to open her eyes wide before she came to herself and pushed him away. Her face flushed.

She pretended to be calm and turned her head to look outside in the heavy rain, while Maynard's deep eyes were looking at her.

A few minutes later, with a sad face, Viola sighed, "It hasn't been finished yet. How can I go back..."

She turned around and saw that Maynard was no longer by her side. All of a sudden, she felt a bit panicked.

However, one minute later, when she saw him coming out of the supermarket with a black umbrella, she suddenly realized that there must be an umbrella in the supermarket.

She took out her wallet and was about to enter the cafe. Maynard grasped her by the arm and asked, "What are you going to do there?"

Viola rolled her eyes and said, "To buy an umbrella."

"Go ahead," After taking a deep look at her, Maynard released her.

A few minutes after Viola entered the market, she came out with a sad look.

"You didn't buy any?" Leaning against the transparent glass, Maynard said in a lazy voice.

"I saw a lot of umbrellas inside, but he told me that he had sold them all. Am I not his enemy?" said Viola.

Hearing that, Maynard covered his mouth with his hand and gave a little cough. A smile flashed across his eyes. "I can share an umbrella with you in spite of the reluctance," he said

He didn't seem to be joking, so Viola agreed after hesitating for a while.

There were many umbrellas in the supermarket, but she still couldn't buy one. She had to share one with Maynard and return to the villa.

The moment they entered the house, a solemn atmosphere filled the air.

On the sofa sat a middle-aged man in a blue suit. His black hair was slightly curly, and time had left two lines on his face, but his whole body was full of low-key and restrained aristocratic atmosphere. "Your Highness, you are finally back." The middle-aged man stood up and bowed with his left hand on his chest.

Maynard looked at him and nodded slightly. "In Y Country, you'd better call my current identity."

Then he stepped forward and sat on the sofa opposite the middle-aged man.

It seemed that there was nothing wrong with Viola. She turned around and was about to go upstairs. However, when she heard a soft voice coming from behind her back, she stopped walking abruptly- "Mr. Chu, in that case, please give me my daughter," The middle-aged man sat down again. His handsome face, though wrinkled, was tense at the moment. ☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
