"You're all that I want, Xiaoruo. But I hope you can understand that I'm working towards our goal so that I can fulfil my promise to you."
She smiled back, sweetly.
"Cree, you know that I don't need all this right now. What I need is for you to be with me. We are lovers now, aren't we?"
She had asked for them to be discreet lovers, but were they in actuality that way? It was an actuality that he was obsessed with knowing if she had kissed another, and she too, was also determined to understand whether any wealthy socialite or business associate had her eyes on him. As much as she was insecure, she was bent on getting her claws into him!
Did discreet lovers act that way?
Indeed, she loved him with all her heart, and even after reuniting with him, she simply loved him even more!
