Chapter 224: Don't Go

Samantha did not want to cry because she had long gotten used to keeping her emotions to herself all those years.

None of it was supposed to be a big deal, and she felt as though crying was unwarranted.

At that moment, her defenses were all broken down as she lay in Timothy's arms and listened to his simple words.

Tears began falling like a broken string of pearls and she was unable to say even a single word.

Timothy hugged her even tighter and said nothing when he felt her trembling in his embrace. Words were unnecessary at that moment as long as he stayed by her side.

He patted the back of Samantha's hand little by little in a silent comforting gesture.

Time passed slowly and it was not until much later that Timothy finally felt her trembling stop in his embrace. Even the sobs began to slow down and he lowered his gaze to look at her.
