Rui did not know how to put everything into words by not making Cali furious over it, but all he knew was that he should clear things about Candice at that moment, so he continued to explain further.
"The truth is Candice is not following me around and she had never been interested in me. I only asked her to help me out to make you jealous for you to realize what I am to you… I wanted to know and see what I am to you, Cali…"
Now Cali had a conflicted look on her face and Rui could tell she had mixed emotions about everything that happened. Rui immediately wrapped her in his arms and hugged her closely and whispered, "I'm really sorry for behaving that way back then, sweetheart. But please understand I was too desperate at that time, you know, I was scared that you would run away from me like how you did with Kane if I just told you how I felt directly.
