Spoiled By The President: My Wife Is A Little Sweet
Chapter 694 Being Honest

Chapter 694 Being Honest

The iron bench had a thick cushion so that it wouldn't feel uncomfortable.

The servants served breakfast and snacks next to Christine's fruit. It was a perfect brunch.

It was March now, the best season of the year to drink tea and bask in the warm sunshine of spring.

Christine picked up her teacup and took a sip. She narrowed her eyes and looked relaxed.

Chad, on the other hand, felt wronged.

He took a careful look at Christine and asked tentatively, "Honey, can I take a sip of the tea?"

Christine paused and glanced at him.

"Want some?"

Chad couldn't stop nodding.

Christine poured him a cup of warm water from the pot.

"Just have some water. Tea's no good for your recovery."

Chad was speechless.

He looked at the plain boiled water and said,

"Honey, it was my legs and ribs that had been hurt. My digestion system is perfectly fine. I can have some tea."

"Who said that?" Christine argued, "The caffeine in tea will cause the loss of calcium. You'll have to give up tea and coffee if you want to get better soon."

As she spoke, she ignored him and continued to drink her tea and eat her snacks.

Having been turned down by her, Chad knew that he wouldn't have any tea today.

He could only pick up the glass of boiled water and drink it.

The atmosphere in the room was too peaceful for him to care about what he was drinking.

The two of them sat there quietly, sunbathing.

A lot of things have happened recently. Now they could finally sit together; they felt their minds had been connected without saying anything.

After all, they had been married for over 20 years.

They were so in tune in many ways.

They could read each other's minds as their eyes met. They didn't have to say it, and they didn't want to say it.

However, Chad still mentioned to her about Gentry and the assassination after contemplation.

After all, he had shown mercy to Gentry for the sake of Christine's family.

Christine's the only member of her family that was still alive now; Chad thought she should know.

Christine wasn't surprised after hearing that.

After a moment of silence, she told him how many times Kristina had come to her in the past few days.

After a while, with mixed feelings, he sighed sentimentally, "After all, I'm the one to blame. No one would be hurt today if I had been more decisive back then. Christine, I'm sorry for what you have to put up with for all these years."

Christine's face froze.

Her eyes dimmed, and then she snorted coldly as if she didn't care.

"I don't need your apology."

She said with her eyes shimmering with tears of sentiment.

Chad couldn't help laughing out upon seeing that.

He suddenly grabbed her hand.

"Honey, I love you."

Christine froze and was lost in thought.

She didn't know how long it had been since the last time he said that.

Or this might be the first time she heard that from this quiet and repressed man.

He was more of a doer than a talker; he had done many things without telling anybody.

So at that time, she called him a blockhead.

He was such a nerd.

Christine had thought that she would no longer hear any sweet words from him in this life.

That was why she was so surprised to hear it just now.

She turned around in disbelief and looked at him.

Chad held her hand and sighed, "I always thought people could see whatever I did, no matter I tell them or not."

"I've overestimated people's control over their feelings and my abilities. Affections would be easily mistaken with other feelings as time went by."

"Christine, I'm sorry for not having said anything sweet to you for all these years. I'll make it up in the coming days."

"Now I understand that being a sweet talker is almost as important as a practical doer in a relationship. If I don't say it, it might lead to misunderstandings from other people, or even from you."

Christine was shocked.

At that moment, she felt as if her heart had been cut open, and he had seen the secret hidden deep in her heart.

She lifted the corner of her mouth in embarrassment and said, "Misunderstanding? I've never had that for you." "You have."

Chad said firmly, "I'm not stupid. I can feel it. I just don't know how to start this conversation with you in the past. I've got a chance today, so I decided to tell you all at once."

Christine could yell how earnest and honest he was.

For a moment, she became rarely nervous.

She pursed her lips and thought, this is so absurd!

She's no longer a young lady, and the man had been by her side for more than 20 years.

She could even picture his face with her eyes closed. She thought she would never be nervous because of that.

That was what she was thinking in her mind, but her tense body sold her out.

Chad said slowly in a deep voice, "I know you thought I loved Kristina, even after you've figured it out that nothing had happened that night between us."

"But you still believe that I took her as your replacement and fell in love with her while you were abroad."

"So for all these years, I know that you still hold a grudge against me for that, but you wouldn't say it."

"That sometimes made me feel helpless because I don't know how to explain. No matter how hard I tried, it sounds like sophistries."

"I don't know if you would believe what I'm saying now, but I still want to say that I've never fallen in love with her."

"You were my only love back then; you've been my love for the past 20 years in our marriage; you're my love now and... God bless us, you'll stay with me and allow me to love you for the rest of my life." "So don't let those misunderstandings wear out our love for each other, okay? You should have known me better after everything we've been through."

"You know it clearly that I don't lie to you. I know how hard it is to replace someone you truly love."
