Chapter79 

“Hmm Lennon seemed confused. 

Mariela replied gently, Lennon, can’t you see what Lauryn truly wants?” 

Lennon sail“What do you mean?“ 

Mariela said slowly. She targets me because of you.” 

Lennon frowned and stayed quiet. 

Mariela looked into his eyes, speaking clearly, Lauryn likes you, so she sees me as a rival. She does these things to drive us apart.” 

Lennon furrowed his brows, still silem, thinking deeply 

Mariela kept walking. 

Lennon caught up “Marie, wait.” 

Mariela opened the car door and got in the driver’s seat, 

Lennon got in the passenger seat 

As he buckled his seatbelt, he said. “I understand now. I’ll stay away from her. 

Mariela’s hand paused.“Why?” 

Lennon said. “You said she likes me. I didn’t know before; I just saw her as a sister. Now I know, I need to keep my distance.” 

He said seriously, “Marie, I want you to feel completely secure in our relationship.” 

Mariela asked, “Why do you believe me unconditionally? Lauryn grew up with you; shouldn’t you trust her more? Why believe me?” 

Lennon gazed at her, his eyes gentle.“I told you 

his eyes gentle.“I told you in the hospital, I know you’re not that kind of person.” 

“Is that the only reason you feel that way?” 

Just because he trusted her character? 

The 

streetlights 

were dim, 

casting 

yellow light through the windshield into the air. 

Lennon’s love for Marjel was unmistakably evident in his eyes. 

He said firmly, “It’s also because I love you. Love means trusting without question.” 

Mariela’s heart pounded hard. 

She turned away, her face flushed. 

Was this a confession? 

Seeing her blush, Lennon smiled.
