Kapitel 374: Her only chance

"Listen, I am here for some serious business. Can you stop crying and listen to me for a while? I will leave you to cry on your own later. I am sure you can postpone the tears."

Cold! Yet she found warmth in them. It didn't matter how her heart shattered. Not how hitched her breath got. What mattered at that moment was that he wasn't pushing her away. 

"I can, for you. Just let me hold you, please. I know that I don't deserve this. Although I don't deserve you, I can't help but feel ambitious."

He stayed silent, having no instant reply to her plea. What could he say? He wasn't one for big talks except if it concerned his brother.

Hence he let her have her way for a while. It wasn't like he had anything better to do. At least not yet. 

Additionally, it wasn't so bad having her in his arms. It felt quite good on the contrary.
