But how could Evelyn be at ease?
She had been through so much, and he literally knew everything about her, including her family background and past.
Everyone knew about them.
Would she really get the love she deserved if she pursued without reservation?
Marty's eyes darkened as he noticed her hesitation. Then, he reached out and gently touched her eyes with his finger.
"Don't look at me like that, Evelyn. It will break my heart."
In the quiet night, his voice was hoarse, with a hint of a wonderful but helpless sigh.
It was the first time she had heard him speak in this tone.
He had always been high-spirited, but now he held her in his arms and sighed wearily.
For some reason, the rims of Evelyn's eyes felt a little sore.
She struggled for a moment. Fortunately, Marty did not continue hugging her, so she could finally stand up.
