Chapter 166
Mariela leaned her face closer, “Hmph,” she said, “How many sentences are there?”
Lennon chuckled, “Just five or six or seven or eight lines.”

“What are you talking about? Why are you saying so much?” Mariela said, looking like she was being unreasonable. Lennon saw it in his eyes and found her jealous look very cute. There was an indissoluble indulgence in his eyes, with a smile on his lips.”It’s nothing, just in high school, she confessed a few times and I rejected her,” he said a few words, but hardly spoke afterwards.
“Do you really not have any feelings in your heart?” Mariela asked, half–believing and half–doubting.“She is quite beautiful.” “No,” Lennon gazed affectionately at Mariela, “I had someone in my heart long ago, there’s no room for anyone else.” Mariela knowingly asked, “Others? Which others?”
Lennon’s eyes were filled with a smile, “What do you say?”
Mariela mumbled, pouting, “How am I supposed to know if you don’t tell me?”
In Lennon’s eyes, she was acting cute like this, melting his heart.
Where could Lennon resist?
His voice carried a smile, “There is no one else but you.”
Mariela didn’t open her eyes to look at him.“When she confessed to you in high school, how old was I back then?”
Was he really impossible to like her back then?
Lennon:“I didn’t have any thoughts of dating when I was in high school.99.”
At this point, Mariela suddenly became curious. She looked into Lennon’s eyes, blinking her beautiful almond–shaped eyes, and asked him, “By the way, when did you start liking me?”
Lennon recalled, “At first, I did see you as a sister, but I can’t say for sure when this affection changed.”
Mariela persistently asked, “Isn’t there an approximate time?”
To be honest, it should be when you were in high school. Daniel was bothering you, and it was only after I hit him that I realized, in retrospect, that my feelings for you seemed to be different somehow.
Mariela pursed her lips and said, “You really hid it well.”
Lennon rubbed Mariela’s furry head and said, “I used to wait for you to grow your long, curly hair.”
Speaking of this, a trace of sadness appeared in his eyes. “As soon as you graduated from college, I went to seek a marriage alliance with your father–in–law, but you were unwilling and even ran away from home.”
Mariela averted her gaze guiltily and muttered, “I… I thought back then that my dad sacrificed me for the sake of the company’s interests. How could I have known that you had planned it all along? You didn’t tell me, I feel so wronged…”
Lennon suddenly pretended to be pitiful, Ouch, the wound hurt so much.”
Mariela became anxious and quickly bent down to check the wound on his waist.“What happened? Did you accidentally bump into something? I’ll call a nurse to take a look.”
