Chapter 1147: This Big Gray Wolf Couldn't Resist Anymore.

"I'm not afraid of what society says about me, nor am deep I afraid of being pointed at my spine, but I am afraid that you're not willing. I want to give you freedom, even if we can't be together. — For this, I can endure not seeking you out."

"I'm not afraid, Trenton Smith, I'm not afraid," she said, her voice trembling as she clung tightly to him, as if by doing so she could transfer the tumultuous emotions swirling inside her. "I'm just afraid you can't bear the cost. I'm afraid you'll be dragged down by me, I'm afraid you'll be blamed by others. You've soared so high, I'm afraid you'll fall because of me." She looked up at him, her voice choking up, "Just like in Mexico, you almost died for me. Your life is so harsh, yet I can do nothing for you. This is what I'm afraid of, Trenton Smith."

Trenton Smith gently enveloped her in his chest, the hollow places there gradually filling with her warmth.
