Chapter 175: I'm Responsible for Her Life (16)

But, they had agreed that he would be responsible for her life. So, how in the end, did he end up causing her to be in that state?

If, if something were to happen to her...

At that time, the worst and most destructive idea surfaced in his mind: to do everything in his power, even sacrificing himself for her!

He was, after all, a man of few words. After such an incident and seeing Isabel safe and sound, he felt a sudden adrenaline rush in his heart as if he had a new lease on life after escaping death. Then, he spoke even less.

So, what he could do was to reach out his hand, pull her into his embrace, and give her a hug.

Even though she often acted arrogant and domineering, she was, after all, a woman. At this moment, what he needed to give her was not a thousand comforting words, nor tender loving care, but a hug.

Because at this moment, an embrace is the most beautiful language in the world.

Just like the most profound feeling is not a confession but companionship.
