'It has been a few days but the cold face man didn't come back. Now I started to miss him. Without him, I feel like I'm alone in this world. Did something bad happen to him? I hope he's doing ok.'
Aylin Lui stayed alone in the cold face man house for almost a week now, but he didn't even come back for a day.
'His neighborhood was mean to me before, but now they're so nice to me. But it's boring living alone in this empty house.'
"Creek." the front door opened. Standing there was a man whose face was half covered.
When Aylin Lui heard the sound of the front door opened, she rushed out of the bedroom.
When she saw the cold face man walking in the house, Aylin Lui smiles "Welcome back."
"Mmm….."
The cold face man walked straight to the living room.
"Did anything happen when I was away?"
"No."
"Did someone treat you badly?"
"No." Aylin Lui continued "Well they did on the first few days, but I told them that I'm your fiance. After that none of them treated me badly, but they started treating me kindly."
The man stopped on his tracked after hearing Aylin Lui's words.
Seeing that the man in front of her stop walking, Aylin Lui hurrily said "I told them I'm your fiance because I don't want to cause trouble for you."
The cold face man stared at the beautiful woman in front of him without saying anything.
Aylin Lui's heart started beating really fast.
'Is he mad because I told the people that I'm his fiance?'
Aylin Lui looked down on the floor, trying to avoid the cold face man face and said softly "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to tell them the lie."
Suddenly, a warm large hand grabbed her hand, then pulled her in his embrace.
His body was so warm. AYlin Lui heart skipped a beat, and her face turned bright red.
This is the first time that her heart skipped a beat for a man.
"What are you doing?" Aylin Lui tried to break free from the cold face man embrace.
"What's wrong with hugging my own fiance?" The cold face man said.
"I'm not your fiance."
"You just said that you're my fiance."
"That's a lie that I told the people."
The cold face man loose his hands and let go of the woman in his embrace.
Then he stared into Aylin Lui's eyes "Are you saying that those words are not true?"
"Of course they're not true."
"Got it."
The gold face man turned around and walked out of the house.
'All women are the same. I thought she's different, but it turned out she's the same as the rest of the women. Use me.'
Aylin Lui was confused.
'What's wrong with this man? Why did he suddenly leave?'
She rushed out of the house "Wait. Where are you going? You just came back now."
The half covered face man kept walking without stopping.
Aylin Lui ran as fast as she could to reach the half cover face man.
Aylin Lui grabbed his hand "Why are you leaving as soon as you came back?"
The half covered face man looked into Aylin Lui's eyes "Will you marry me?"
"What?" Aylin Lui was surprised by the half face man words. "What did you just say?"
"Never mind. Just forget what I just said."
He breaks free from Aylin Lui's hand and starts walking.
"Yes." Aylin Lui shouted "I say yes. So please don't leave."
'He's the one who treats me as a human being. He's the one who keeps me safe. I'll marry him to pay back what he has done for me.'
The half cover face man stopped in his track. He turned around "Aren't you curious about how I look? If you see the real me, you won't agree to marry me so fast. You'll regret agreeing to marry me for the rest of your life."
Aylin Lui walked up to him. She looked up into his eyes "I am. I'm curious about what you look like without your mask. But will that change anything if you keep your mask on or not? I agree to marry you not because of your looks."
Tears falling on Aylin Lui's cheeks "I agree to marry you because I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I don't care what you look like without your mask. I'll never leave you even if you chase me away. The only thing that will make me leave you is kill me."
The half covered face man pulled the woman in front of him into his embrace. He hugged as tight as he could.
His hug was so tight that Aylin Lui couldn't breath.
"I can't breath." Aylin Lui said.
The half covered face man let go of the woman in his arms "Oh.. Sorry." he said embarrassedly.
"That's ok." Aylin Lui took his hands in her hands "So please don't leave me alone. I can't live without you."
The half covered man smiles warmly "Ok. I will never leave you alone." He continued "There's one thing I want to show you."
"Huh?"
The half covered face man loose the mask on his face.
There's an old scar on his face.
'It seems like I saw this face before. Where did I see it?'
Aylin Lui took a few steps back to take a good look at the man in front of her face.
When she saw his face clearly, Aylin Lui gasped in surprise.
Seeing the woman in front of him shocked after seeing his face, the man asked sadly "Do you still want me to marry me with a face like this?"
'What? The man in front of me was Ethan Chance? When I met him before, I couldn't see his face clearly. But now I can see his face clearly.'
"Of course. I'm already your wife the second you let me stay in your house.'
