Chapter 127 UNEXPECTED PROPOSAL

“For our children, Lily.” He replied, looking me straight in the eyes.

For our children…. Yeah, for Isabelle and Dylan…. But was it enough reason for me to stay? I thought to myself, wanting to actually hear him say that he wanted me to stay with him because he loves me.

Grey continued. “I know if you leave, you will take the children with you and God only knows how long before you return here so Dylan and Isabelle could be with me again. I know I could visit them anytime if you're in Europe but it wouldn't be enough for me because I want to be with them all the time… I want them to have a complete family which I never experienced in my life.” His eyes filled with even more emotions as he said those words.

Even though I never experienced having an absentee father and an abusive stepmother to raise me, I knew that it wasn't easy. To say it was hard was an understatement. Perhaps ‘hell’ would be the right word to describe the situation.
