Marriage Without Love: Sir, Please Stop

Chapter 134



Chapter 134

Bennett's eyes stared at her like a searchlight, as if to peep into the depths of her heart.

Catalina hurriedly turned her head and licked her lips. "Now it's all settled. What's the point of asking it?"

Catalina did not intend to answer.

But Bennett didn't intend to give up.

He turned her face, his head slightly lowered, and his breath approached her. "You are not willing!"

Bennett's tone was firm.

Catalina looked at him and bit her pale lower lip. "Whether I am willing or not, I have chosen Warren..."

"Has Carolyn forced you?"

Bennett had no extra patience to listen to her say these damn declarations. "In that case, why don't you beg me?"

"Beg you?"

Catalina's eyes were slightly wet and her eyebrows frowned. "How can I beg? Be humble and then exchange it for your 'never be related'?"

She did not forget the three words he said to her when she called him for help that day.

Never be related!

Bennett felt stuffy in his chest, which heaved for a while. He frowned deeply. "Did you call me that day to ask for help?"

"Yes."

Catalina bit her lower lip and did not hide it from him.

She almost cried.

"Why didn't you say?"

Bennett was annoyed. "I just said "never be related" in a rage. You could still beg me, but you would rather marry Warren."

"You're making a false countercharge. Bennett, you can't be so bad! Don't you want me to give up my self-esteem and cry and beg you?"

"You are worse, Catalina!"

Bennett gritted his teeth and complained loudly, "You wouldn't even beg me, but you'd rather marry a man you don't love at all! Maybe if you ask for my help, I will try my best to help you. Do you know it?" Bennett's words shocked Catalina completely.

Her eyes widened, her eyes trembled, and her tears burst out like broken beads.

"Why... Why?"

Her voice was still shaking.

She could not believe what she had just heard.

He said that he would try his best to help her.

Wasn't it a dream?

Bennett paused in his voice and turned sideways. "I won't force you. You've chosen your own future."

He always believed that she had never intended to betray Warren.

What was more, he believed that no matter four years ago or now, she was not willing to marry Warren.

Especially on this last point, Bennett could not deceive himself even though he was unwilling to admit it.

When he knew that Catalina was only forced to get engaged to Warren, and even called him for help before that, he was very excited about either of these two points.

Like when he was a child, Catalina stuffed a box of candy into his desk for the first time.

He just repressed and never wanted to show his mind!

Bennett stared at her. Through her clear eyes, she seemed to see the young and innocent girl again.

Wouldn't it be great if time could be turned back?

If time went back, he would try to prevent the absurd wedding four years ago.

No, he would go back to the previous night and do everything to protect her. He would never let any bastard bully her and sully her!

Catalina curled up in the chair, holding her legs in her hands, her chin on her knees, and her eyes looking straight at him.

She thought that the most absurd thing she had done in her life was to make love with Bennett on the eve of her wedding four years ago. And this was also the least regretful thing she had done in her life.

Even later, she paid a lot for it.

But she never regretted it.

Catalina and Bennett were separated by a short distance. Their eyes met intimately, and neither of them avoided.

It seemed that there was strange and subtle affection between the two people, quietly flowing and pervading.

At that moment, Catalina had an illusion, as if she saw herself blushing and nervous in his faint eyes.

This night, it seemed calm, but not calm.

The next day, the Shaffer family didn't let Catalina into the ward saying that her identity was inappropriate.

She looked at Bennett in the ward from the window.

They couldn't get along like they used to, could they?

Catalina lowered her eyes, turned around, and walked outside feebly.

Another week had passed.

In the evening, Catalina and Emery met for dinner.

After dinner, it was only nine o'clock.

Catalina looked at the time. "Emery, it's still early. Shall we go out for fun?"

"Isn't it late?"

Emery also raised her hand and looked at the time. "It's more than nine o'clock, and there's no place for fun. The mall will close in less than an hour. The most important thing is that I have a manuscript to finish. If I still go out for fun, I'll really stay up all night tonight. Go back, go back!"

"Well, OK..."

Catalina paid the bill.

They went out with their bags.

It was already dark outside, with stars dotted overhead.

The two of them were waiting for the bus at the bus stop. After a while, the bus came. It was for Emery.

"Lina, I'll leave first! See you tomorrow! Bye."

"Bye! Send me a message when you arrive." Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Well, you too!"

Emery answered her while getting on the bus.

Soon, the bus left the station.

Catalina stood under the stop sign and stared blankly.

After a while, another bus stopped in front of her.

It was the bus she waited for.

The bus drove down Shaffer Mountain.

The door opened.

Catalina stared at the door in front of her, but she stayed on the ground for a long time. Her feet seemed to be stuck and did not move.

The door closed.

The bus drove away.

The night view in front of her appeared again.

She didn't want to go back to Shaffer Mountain.

She knew that was where she should go back, but...

She just stood still.

Catalina was strolling on the road with her bag.

Finally, she went into a roadside bar.

It was unknown how long she stayed inside. After drinking a lot of wine, she came out again.

After coming out, she continued to walk aimlessly along the road.

However, the steps under her feet were obviously unstable.

Staggering, as if she would fall at any time.

"Catalina, since you don't like Warren, why don't you tell him directly?"

Catalina was drunk and talking to herself.

"Say it!"

She looked up at the starry sky above her head and shouted angrily, "If you said, Warren may understand you, but why can't you tell him bravely?"

But the next second, she was dejected again. "Catalina, you can't say! Warren's legs were destroyed because of you. Because of you, he can't stand up anymore! When he was a child, he treated you so well, spoiled you, and protected you. If you say the truth now, won't you feel guilty?"

This was the reason why Catalina was not willing to return to Ink Villa so late.

Because her soul had been suffering.

Said or not.

Yes or no.

She had no accurate answer in her heart.

Catalina thought faintly.

Her steps were getting more and more messy.
