Chapter 821 He Simply Cannot Live Without Her

The room was quiet.

For a moment, neither of them spoke.

It was Damion's first time kissing a girl, and he had been caught off guard by Ivy's sudden attack before he could even confess his feelings to her. He couldn't quite gather his thoughts at the moment and didn't know what to do with his hands.

Ivy looked at Damion and murmured softly, "Damion, are we together now?"

To be honest, Damion wasn't ready for this so soon. He hadn't prepared himself for what he wanted to say to Ivy about being together in the long run. But it seemed like there was no point in saying anything now that they were already in this situation.

"Yes," Damion said. "We're together."

Ivy couldn't hide her excitement but still scolded him playfully. "You didn't even ask me if I wanted to be with you!"

Damion raised an eyebrow and his gaze turned dangerous in an instant. It was clear that if she said anything else that would annoy him right now, she might face some serious consequences for provoking him like this.

Although Ivy had never been in love before, this was the first time she had feelings for a man. Her animal instincts were very keen, and she could sense that Damion wasn't in a good mood at the moment.

If she dared to say something that would make him feel worse, her life might be in danger. So Ivy obediently approached Damion and said to him, "Of course I like you. You're my favorite." Damion let out a light snort through his nose and acted quite proud.

Ivy quietly glanced at Damion's expression and then said, "Damion, does that mean you're my boyfriend now?"

"Mm-hmm," replied Damion.

Ivy immediately became happy again and approached Damion once more saying, "So can I act cute with you now?"

Damion met her gaze and saw the starry glint in her eyes. He felt helpless yet also heartbroken. How timid this girl was around him! She couldn't express her true emotions towards him. Why did his girl have to be so submissive?

Damion pinched Ivy's face gently and said to her, "You can do anything with me except breaking the law or cheating on me."

Upon hearing this statement from Damion, Ivy giggled uncontrollably, and couldn't help but think how adorable he was.

It was no wonder she liked him so much.

Who wouldn't like someone like Damion?

Ivy raised her hand and wrapped it around Damion's neck, snuggling into his embrace.

She said, "I don't want to go to Capital anymore. I want to stay by your side."

Damion chuckled. This girl was indeed like a child, with thoughts jumping around from one moment to the next, not even sure what she really wanted.

He patted Ivy on the back and asked her to sit down.

"Ivy," he said. "I think you need to think about this a little more clearly."

Ivy sat up straight and became serious too.

She looked at Damion and said, "I never thought we would be together. That's why I wanted to go to Capital. I want to study hard so that I can repay you when I come back."

"I know," Damion replied.

He understood the thoughts of this young girl very well.

"But," Ivy continued. "I don't want a long-distance relationship. I never had any family or friends before. Always alone all my life. Now that there is finally someone like you in my life, I don't want us separated."

It was as if Ivy was a child who had never tasted candy before. Without having tasted it before, she wouldn't have realized how bitter life could be but now that she had tasted it for the first time, how will she ever go back?

Damion touched Ivy's face gently and said, "Originally, I didn't plan on confirming our relationship so quickly but because you were in such a hurry and didn't give me an opportunity, let me explain things properly."

As soon as Ivy heard Damion's words, her face turned pale with confusion. She looked at him uncertainly, unsure if she could accept what he was about to say.

Damion knew that she was overthinking things again. He said, "I'm not breaking up with you. Since we're already together, I won't let go. That's what I wanted to tell you earlier."

Ivy stared at Damion in a daze and didn't react for a moment. She didn't know what he meant by his words.

Damion continued, "You may not know me well enough yet, but possessiveness is deeply ingrained in my nature. Unless something is confirmed as mine, no one can take it away from me."

Ivy was stunned by this revelation. The Damion she knew seemed completely different from the one standing before her now.

She couldn't believe that Damion was really like this.

Without giving Ivy time to digest his words, Damion went on to say, "So what I meant earlier was that I'm giving you a chance to decide your own path in life. If you want to leave me and fly away someday, before or after we start our relationship, then I'll let you go... but remember that you belong to me."

For a long time afterwards, Ivy just stared at him with watery eyes, finally understanding the true meaning of his words.

The truth of it all hit her hard: she liked Damion now and would continue liking him more each day going forward into their future together.

In fact, when she realized how much he meant to her deep down inside herself, she knew without question: if they couldn't be together, then there would be no one else for her either way...

"How could I possibly like someone inferior after experiencing the best?" Ivy realized this and suddenly burst into laughter.

She looked at Damion and said, "I am yours."

Ivy's gaze was unwavering as she looked at Damion, as if she were surrendering herself to him with those three words. Damion's heart softened by the girl's words.

At this moment, he didn't want to let her go to Capital anymore.

Damion thought he had such strong willpower that he could generously send the girl off to study and grow up.

But now it seemed that he overestimated himself. Perhaps it was because he couldn't bear to be without her.
