Chapter 155. You Are the Reason

Fenella’s POV

"I didn't expect it to turn out like this. I really wanted to help you, Fenella. Please trust me."

Alan pleaded with me in a soft voice. His body was now fully facing me, and his legs were no longer propped up sideways on the table.

No matter how many times he said that, I couldn't believe him. Maybe if another woman were sitting here facing Alan, she might believe him. His handsome, charming face, dark eyes that glittered seductively, and the stubble on his jaw that gave a modern impression—all of it screamed the word ‘charmer’.

After various heated debates and bad soap opera dramas, it seemed we were starting to reach some calm. I hoped this was enough to soothe my emotions and speak calmly. Although I wanted to treat the burn on his leg, Alan insisted that the cold compress on his leg was enough. He said he would endure it until all my questions were answered.

"Alright, if you want me to trust you, answer all my questions honestly."
