To the Love of My Life

Chapter 935: Chapter 935: Can You Love Me Again? (5)_1

Howard Coleman listened to the cheering, and he couldn’t help but look into the private room through the glass in the center of the door.

He saw Madeleine and Andrew Henris standing directly in front of the large screen, facing the teasing of everyone. Madeleine looked somewhat embarrassed, while Andrew’s gaze circled the people present and finally landed on the door of the private room, and then his eyes fixed on Madeleine’s.

Andrew stared at Madeleine for about half a minute, then slowly lowered his head.

The cheering inside the private room suddenly quieted down.

Clear as day, Howard saw Andrew’s hand slowly reach for Madeleine’s arm, his face slowly approached hers, and just as Andrew’s lips were about to touch Madeleine’s, for some reason that Howard couldn’t explain, his mind heated up, and he suddenly pushed open the door of the private room. Disregarding the displeasure in everyone’s eyes for interrupting such a beautiful scene, he stepped forward, reached out, grabbed Madeleine, and pulled her out of the room with great force.

Howard ignored Madeleine’s cries of pain and questioning, simply dragging her through the twisting corridors of The Sapphire Bistro, then out the back door, pulling her all the way to an ancient tree in the garden behind The Sapphire Bistro, before stopping.

Since it was summer, the tree was in full bloom with clusters of pink flowers, which fell rustlingly with the summer night breeze.

Howard stood under the tree and finally came to a halt.

“Howard, what are you doing?”

Before Madeleine could finish her question, Howard turned around, cupped her lips, and kissed her fiercely.

The familiar sensation made Madeleine’s head spin; she instinctively gave in without resistance. Just as she was about to lose herself in Howard’s kiss, she suddenly snapped back to reality, beginning to struggle fiercely to break free from his grip.

But Howard held her even tighter, kissing her more fiercely, more passionately.

Madeleine could clearly feel the surging within her—no matter how he treated her, she could never resist him. Suddenly, in a flash, she began to detest herself for her spinelessness towards him.

Didn’t he know that such kisses would only cause her despair to harbor hope?

The other night had already turned her into a joke, and now, what did he mean by this?

Madeleine didn’t know where she found the strength, but she suddenly pushed Howard away, not stopping to think as she fiercely slapped his face, “Howard, what on earth do you want?”

The slap left five red finger marks on Howard’s fair face. He stared at her, pursed his lips, but still did not speak. Once again, he reached out his hand to pull her into his embrace, bending down to seal her lips with his.

Madeleine raised her hand, attempting to push Howard away again, but he was quicker, seizing her hand and pinning her against the tree, kissing her with all his might.

Unable to break free, Madeleine could only endure his forceful kiss. She was clearly angry at his unprovoked kissing, yet she craved it. Such conflicting emotions mingled in her heart, causing her to lose control for a moment, and tears streamed down her face.

She seldom cried in front of him; even three and a half years earlier, with all the hurt and sorrow he had caused her, she always hid to weep alone.

Now, suddenly shedding tears in front of him, she began to lose control, the tears falling more and more plentifully.

With tears running down Madeleine’s cheeks into her mouth, Howard tasted their sourness. His fervent kissing paused; he lingered against her lips for a long while before pulling away, lifting his head to see her face stained with tears. He couldn’t resist reaching out to touch her face, but she raised her hand, brushing his hand away: “Howard, what is the meaning of this?

Didn’t he know? Every time he approached her, it was as if he was placing her in purgatory, tasting all the emotions between joy and despair.

“We no longer have anything to do with each other. I’ve tried my hardest to avoid you; isn’t that enough? Why do you have to come and bother me?”

As Madeleine spoke, her tears fell even harder.

Howard Coleman looked at the woman before him, her face streaming with tears, and despite her resistance, he stretched out his hand, pulling her forcefully into his embrace. He listened to her crying for a long time before turning his head to whisper low into her ear, “Madeleine, I’m sorry.”

Howard paused, then continued, “Madeleine, don’t be with Andrew anymore, because, I love you too.”

When Madeleine heard these words, she suddenly stopped crying.

Howard said, he loved her too.

How long had she waited in her life for these words…

Madeleine felt as if it were all a dream.

Howard held Madeleine, waiting a long time for the woman’s response, but when it didn’t come, he couldn’t help but speak again, “Can you love me one more time?”

“I promise, this time, I will never let you be sad or upset again.”

Love him again?

Madeleine hesitated for a moment, then without even thinking replied, “I can’t.”

Howard, holding her, tensed all over, as if his entire being had been placed in a frozen wasteland, his whole body went cold.

It took quite a while before Howard staggered back a step, releasing Madeleine; his complexion somewhat pale, he looked at Madeleine, moved his lips, but before he could speak, Madeleine’s voice came again, “Because, I never stopped loving you.”

The end of the extras.

First of all, this is the last time I remind everyone to cast your recommendation votes and monthly votes for me~~~~ It’s truly the last time for this book~

Next: As much as it is to torment Howard, I can only go this far, because Madeleine loves him more than she loves herself; tormenting him is the same as tormenting Madeleine, so as long as he declares his love, Madeleine would always forgive. Wishing Madeleine and Howard, Ruby’s time, happiness forever~ This extra ends here, this story isn’t the main text, I’m not writing about their marriage and children, there’s no point~~ It would be like Ruby’s time all over again~

Lastly: This is really the moment to say goodbye to everyone, and I hope that in the two months I’m away, you all eat well, drink well, have fun and read good books~ On May 12th, Ye Zi releases a new book; let’s meet again on that day~~ Let’s see who gets the first comment on the new book~
