Runaway Wife: Please, Have Another Baby!

Chapter 215: Chapter 216 A Chance

On the terrace, there was only moonlight, and beneath the moonlight, the man’s blue eyes were tender, like a calm sea.

She dared not look into those eyes, fearing that one more glance would melt her strength in his tenderness.

Bowing her head, she took a deep breath.

Moments later, she lifted her face again.

"Alright." Looking up into his eyes, she began to speak slowly, "I’ll give you a chance. It’s absolutely impossible for me to be with a king or heir. If you’re willing to give up your position as heir, then I will... stay!"

She raised her hand and moved his palm away from her face.

"You don’t have to answer me now. I’ll give you three days to consider it. Goodnight."

The man stood in the corridor, watching her retreating figure, his gaze deep.

Letting go of his hand, she walked past him, step by step, never looking back.

She knew he couldn’t give it up.

Three years ago, in an interview, he had said.

His greatest dream in life was to be a true and good king.

Ever since he was a teenager, this man had always been working towards this goal; he couldn’t possibly give it up for her.

Back in the master bedroom, she walked over and sat down at the edge of the large bed, lifting her palm to gently caress her son’s face.

"Xiaotang, I’m sorry."

He was still too young, too young to protect himself.

This kidnapping incident had sounded the alarm for Gan Yuan.

That man was the future king, as dazzling as the sun, and too close a proximity could easily cause harm. She couldn’t allow her son to be in danger again.

...

...

Across the ocean.

M Country.

In the suburbs, by a waterside manor, the moonlight was like water, casting a faint silver glow over the pointed Gothic architecture.

The fog hanging in the air was like a veil casting this manor in an even more mysterious aura.

Footsteps broke the silence, and the carved wooden door was violently pushed open; the butler, with a panicked expression, rushed in holding a newspaper.

"Sir... Sir..."

Out of breath from running up too many steps, he was gasping for air.

The man sitting behind the desk had a cold displeasure in his phoenix eyes.

"What happened?"

"Miss... Miss..." the butler panted heavily, unable to utter the complete name.

The man behind the desk stood up abruptly and rushed over, grabbing the butler by the collar.

"What happened to the miss?"

The butler, choked by his grasp, could not speak, but raised his right hand, presenting the newspaper to him.

"The... The newspaper!"

The man snatched the newspaper, his eyes touching the front-page headline and the photo, and he immediately ordered sharply,

"Turn on the light!"

The light came on, and the entire study was brilliantly illuminated, clearly showing the content of the newspaper.

On the front page, to the right, was a photo of a girl.

With raven hair and eyes, dressed in a beautiful blue dress that resembled a serene lake, her hair loosely tied back, exposing a neck as graceful as a swan’s.

The photo was a side profile, where the girl’s beautiful facial lines were clearly visible, from her forehead to her nose bridge... and then to her lips, chin... everything was identical to the one in his memory.

The man’s hand holding the newspaper began to tremble.

"Where is she?"

By now, the butler’s breathing had calmed considerably, and he immediately responded.

"The newspaper says she’s in B City."

"Prepare the plane ticket, the faster, the better."

"Yes!"

"Hurry up!"

The man roared.

The butler hurriedly turned and ran downstairs.

The man lifted the newspaper again, his eyes falling on the text below, and he slowly read out her name.

"Gan... Yuan?!"
