章 139: Playing Along

As Cassidy only continues staring at Adrian, she realizes something that she thinks she has been disregarding for too long.

That gentle look, his affectionate touches, and all these romantic gestures - they are enough to tell her that he is indeed in love with her. He has come to care for her even more than she can imagine. This time around, they are genuine. He is no longer playing along in this arranged marriage of theirs. His sincerity is unmistakable, especially since he does not try to hide it.

Then again, this man has always been a genuine one.

Genuinely indifferent, and genuinely caring - either way, he acts unfeigned.

'Well, it is as I believe - he is a good person deep within, but...' Cassidy thought as she kneeled beside Adrian to take a closer look at the penguin he was petting.

'It just can't work anymore. This doesn't seem right.'

She feels like she is the one who is only playing along this time.
