Love You Like I Used To Forget It (Millie Bridge) novel Chapter 566

As he understood what I was implying, Irvin's eyes instantly welled up with tears. However, unlike his old self, he didn't stubbornly insist on being with me. He also didn't use our children as leverage to convince me to stay with him.

Irvin simply looked longingly at me with eyes that were red with unshed tears. "Alright. If there's ever a time I could use both of your help, I'll definitely ask."

The old Irvin was like an overgrown child. No matter how much he had claimed to love me, he had always loved himself most. Everything had revolved around his feelings.

He had also been afraid of getting hurt and betrayed. And because of this fear, he had been emotionally abusive toward me and had hurt me.

But the Irvin before me really had matured. He knew he hadn't actually slept with Grace and that he wasn't tainted. He even knew I was carrying his babies. Even so, he couldn't, wouldn't, and didn't want to force me into a dilemma.

He finally recognized how unforgivable all the things he had done in the past were. They were so unforgivable, in fact, that he felt he had no right to ask me for another chance.

Even after learning that he hadn't sullied himself by sleeping with another woman, Irvin still…

No. I should say he was now capable of loving me selflessly. It was the kind where seeing me alive and well was good enough for him.

Before, Irvin had been in despair because he believed he was no longer worthy of me. That was why he had given my and William's relationship his blessing.

However, that couldn't really count as him being happy for me. But now, he had finally learned what it means to truly love someone.

His response and restraint surprised me at first. But then, I sighed in relief and felt comforted.

Irvin and I had been in love since we were young. We had saved each other more times than we could count. So, even though the romance was gone, we still had a familial bond. Because of this bond, I wanted the best for him.

I also wanted to be able to get along with him, especially when we were going to have children together and would inevitably stay in each other's lives.
