Chapter 424: I Will Never Betray You
What Evan heard as he entered the room...
"Evan! Did you really betray me!?"
His heart sank when he heard that; his wife had seen the news.
"Not. I did not betray you."
Rose was utterly shocked when she heard Evan’s voice. She looked towards the door. When Evan’s figure came into view, her body could not help but tighten.
Since when was he there?
"I will never betray you..." Evan’s deep voice echoed through the room. He slowly walked over to the bed, sat on the edge, and wiped her tears. As their eyes locked, he continued, "Don’t cry. There’s nothing between that woman and me...."
"B-But..." Rose stopped talking when she saw Evan’s eyes shine with sincerity and affection for her. There was no anxiety, panic, or betrayal. From there, this man was telling the truth.
She felt confused. Were her suspicions exaggerated?
"I promised you before we got married. You’re the only woman in my heart. And until now and then, forever...." Evan took her hand. He was surprised when he felt her hand feel so cold. He squeezed it gently, trying to convey warmth to her. "Please, my dear, trust me, huh!? I will never betray you...."
Evan’s sincere words could make Rose’s heart feel a little better.
"I believe you... But I want to know one thing. Please answer me honestly...."
"What is it?"
"Evan, the reason you delay your comeback... because of her?" Rose knew the question sounded stupid. But she just wanted to put her mind at ease. After all, this question had been tormenting her mind for the past few days. She wanted to hear a straight answer from him.
"Of course not! I’ve never had any contact with that woman again...." Evan was shocked by what he had just said.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to be honest with his wife, but he doesn’t want her to get hurt hearing stories about his past. He just wanted to keep her feelings from getting hurt.
"Again!? So you know Carla Miller? So, is it true that you extended your visit there because of her!?" She felt like an invisible hand was squeezing her heart for some reason. It hurts.
Evan massaged his temples which suddenly felt pain. He was confused about whether to tell her or not!?
If he was honest with her, she might feel hurt. However, if he kept it a secret and his wife found out about it from someone else, it would likely trigger another problem like this, a tearful wife.
Seeing her cry broke his heart.
There were no stories left about Carla Miller that he needed to tell. The woman was just his past that he had long forgotten. He never thought about her again since the woman rejected him. He moved long before he met his wife.
And his encounter with Cara at the New York airport was just a coincidence. Even then, he did not recognize her.
Now he suspects that his meeting with Carla at the airport was designed. Someone purposely took their picture secretly and spread it on the internet.
Evan slowly held Rose’s hand again and looked into her eyes, "You want to hear the truth?"
"Yes."
"But, promise me you won’t get angry or feel hurt. Because what you’re about to hear might make you feel that way."
Rose is stunned. She was getting worried about hearing what Evan would say. Afraid she would be really hurt if she heard about it.
How deep is their relationship?
"I promise you, I will not be angry..." Although Rose was afraid, she also wanted to know the truth.
"Actually, that woman was my senior in high school and my first love. But, at that time, she rejected me. After she graduated, we never saw each other again until we met at the New York airport...." Evan paused to see her reaction.
When he saw her look calm, he continued, "When we met that time, I didn’t even talk to her. I just nodded when she greeted me. You can ask Gavin if you don’t believe me."
Happiness radiated from her eyes when she heard his words. Her worries gradually faded away, "Evan! I believe you."
Somehow she felt relieved after hearing Evan’s explanation. It turned out the woman was just his past.
That woman is only his crush. So what!?
She also has a man she has a crush on, Dustin. And the story of her chasing Dustin is even worse; she chased him for so long, from high school to college.
Evan even witnessed how she chased after Dustin. But, since she was dating Evan until they were married, Evan never once questioned it.
So, she didn’t need to be jealous of Carla Miller, right!? That woman was his past, and she had to trust Evan. As long as Evan said they weren’t in a relationship anymore, she would believe him.
Evan was surprised by Rose’s calm reaction. Not only did she look so quiet, but she also believed him without hesitation.
Even though Evan smiled at her, he was secretly worried that his wife was hiding her true feeling.
"Wife, are you not angry? Or jealous?" His deep eyes looked straight into Rose’s eyes with curiosity.
"Why should I? You also know I have a first crush, right? And have you ever complained to me about him?"
He chuckled. Now he understood why his wife didn’t mind that.
But she was wrong about one thing; while they were in college, not that he was never jealous of Dustin. He is very jealous. Dustin really didn’t give him a chance to win Rose’s heart. At that time, Rose’s eyes were only on Dustin.
He still remembers that night, when he invited Rose to dinner, he thought that was their last dinner before he was rejected. He already plans to move on if Rose has no feelings for him. But it turns out Rose gave him a chance that night.
Evan never even expected that night Rose would finally accept him to be her boyfriend.
So far, he had never talked about his jealousy. Because it’s not necessary anymore. The important thing is that Rose is already his. No one can take her away from him.
