As she spoke, tears streamed down Anna's face, extremely aggrieved. Alex frowned, feeling a hint of helplessness in his heart. Seeing that Alex didn't respond, Anna continued, "Brother Alex, even if we don't have that paper marriage contract, am I not worthy of standing by your side?"
"We're both not young anymore, and in this city, I'm the most suitable candidate to be your wife."
Hearing this, Alex's brow furrowed, and after a long silence, he slowly uttered three words, "Stop it."
As soon as these three words were spoken, it was as if they had struck the softest spot in Anna's heart.
"How am I causing trouble? I just want to get along with you well!" Anna's eyes turned red, tears streaming down her face.
"But I don't like you," Alex said.
Hearing this, Anna's tears instantly fell like broken pearls, pattering on the floor. She trembled, her lips quivering as she looked up at Alex with tearful eyes, pitiful and helpless.
