Andrew did not answer her immediately. Instead, he took his time as he weighed the pros and cons of what would happen if he told her everything about him, his past and his family, without hiding anything.
A part of him wanted to tell her everything, every small detail but the other part of him was scared, scared that she would leave him after learning he wasn't the kind, ethical man she thought he was. He wasn't a gentleman.
Losing Rachsel was his worst nightmare but keeping her in the dark made him feel guilty every single minute.
When she saw the hesitation in his eyes, she pursed her lips. She knew there were things he wanted to tell her, she could feel it. But at the same time, he wasn't willing to share.
And even though she had promised herself that she would wait for him to share everything with her, she was slowly losing her patience.
