Chapter 288
"At first, I was just curious about you. The people I met since I was a child were all in the same circle as me. Only you, who suddenly broke in, were an exception." Louie said softly.
My initial panic slowly calmed down. I understood that the reason why he was different from me was just because of the difference between me and the people around me.
"It's normal. You're an exception to me."
Louie shook his head at me. "No, you've already met Harrison before. How could you think that I'm an exception?"
"That's because you are different from inside to outside. You should know this better than anyone else, shouldn't you?" I explained. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Although I explained it in this way, I didn't know it at all in my heart, because this question was not even clear to me.
After all, with Harrison's presence, Louie was basically not surprised by me at all. Then why should I have an argument with Harrison because of his existence?
For the first time, I became suspicious of the situation caused by my own hands...
"Chelsea, there are some problems that you can't avoid just because you want to. I believe that we both know how I feel about you. Harrison is right. I have never thought of giving you up completely."
After hearing Louie's words, I was not shocked at all. On the contrary, I was very calm.
I said to him lightly, "Then you should be more clear about my decision."
"But you didn't choose to leave me. Isn't this enough? If your relationship with Harrison is really so indestructible, can you allow me to stay with you for so long?" Louie questioned me.
"Because I treat you as my friend, my best friend." Looking at Louie in front of me, I answered seriously.
I didn't expect things to go like this, and I didn't expect Louie's feelings for me to last for so long. I thought he had taken back his feelings for me, but I didn't understand until now. I thought it was just me.
After thinking for a while, I said again, "You have been with me since I was a child. The one who has never left is Sienna, and you are the second one."
"Maybe it's because the tragedy has lasted for too long, so when you helped me a lot, I accepted it from uneasiness to peace of mind. I reminded myself again and again that you are just my good friend, so you always helped me."
These words were not so much an explanation to him as an analysis of himself, forcing him to face the fact that he was unwilling to face before.
Harrison was right. I was with him, but I couldn't bear to part with Louie's care for me. To put it worse, I was just stepping on two sides.
While I was thinking, Louie suddenly smiled and said, "I'm willing to help you, and I never expect you to repay me."
"But this is unfair to you. I don't want to go on like this, and I don't want the three of us to get hurt in the end." At this time, I thought it very clearly and decided to give up all my previous thoughts.
Louie chuckled at first, and then he stood in front of me.
He looked at me expressionlessly. "What if I say I don't care?"
The question was so short that I was at a loss for words. I didn't have time to think about it and blurted out, "I care! You don't care, I care!"
Then came a low laughter. If the laughter was not from Louie, who was expressionless in front of him, or not me, then who could it be?
I looked in the direction of the voice and saw Liu Qian opening the door of the lounge with a smile on her face. She looked at Louie and me meaningfully and said, "Although everyone has taken a nap at this time, you should pay attention to your influence, right?" "What's the impact? Liu Qian, watch your mouth!" I said.
Liu Qian's slender fingers gestured between me and Louie. When I looked back, I found that my body was almost next to Louie's. I quickly took a few steps back, but because my movements were too big, I bumped into the corner of the table and cried out in pain.
"How are you? Are you okay?" Louie came over worriedly.
I endured the pain in my waist and waved to him repeatedly. "I'm fine, I'm fine. Don't come over!"
Louie suddenly stopped and didn't move. I also realized what he had just said. I lowered my head and didn't know how to face him. I was full of regret.
But such a stalemate was not a long-term solution. I had no choice but to look up at him and forced a smile. "I mean, you don't have to come over to see me. I'm fine."
I knew it was a lame explanation, but Louie didn't expose it. Now I only had one thought in my mind. I must make it clear to him today, in case it would be more troublesome in the future, just like what Harrison said.
I don't know why, but I miss Harrison so much at this moment. If he were here, things wouldn't have ended up like this.
"It's all my fault that I thought I could solve it. I didn't know that things were getting more and more troublesome after I killed him."
"This kind of guilty words can only be said by you. Ordinary people really can't say it." Liu Qian, who had been forgotten by me, suddenly said this sentence.
Liu Qian walked into the lounge slowly and walked to Louie and I. She looked at us and I felt uncomfortable. "In fact, Mr. Zhuang seems to be more suitable for you than Mr. Stewart, Sister Chelsea."
I glared at Liu Qian and said coldly, "I don't need you to tell me anything about me."
"I'm just expressing my opinion. It's just a pity for Mr. Zhuang." Liu Qian put one of her hands on Louie's shoulder and said with regret.
Louie did not speak. His eyes were fixed on me.
Being stared at like this, I inexplicably felt a little guilty. I directly turned my eyes elsewhere and said, "Liu Qian, Harrison and I have never thought about separating since we decided to be together. And Louie is my good friend from beginning to end, so don't let go of your plan."
With that, I looked at Louie and said with a faint smile, "Thank you for your hospitality. I have to go now."
As soon as I finished speaking, I turned around and walked to the door of the lounge, ignoring their reactions. As soon as I walked out of the door and turned right, I saw Harrison, who should not have been here, leisurely leaning against the wall and looking at me.
"You..." I opened my mouth and wanted to ask, but when I saw him walking toward me, I couldn't open my mouth.
Thinking of the situation in the lounge and what Liu Qian suddenly said, I wondered if it was Harrison who asked her to go in, but this idea was quickly dispelled, because in my heart, Harrison was not such a person.
I raised my head and asked, "Aren't you gone? Why are you back?"
Harrison lowered his head and stopped when he was about to kiss me. He smiled and said, "Did my appearance ruin something and make you unhappy?"
