NovelOnlineAfter that, the two of them eventually fell silent, not knowing what else to say. At the stime, the people around were still
talking about the dolphins. As she noticed that Roger didn’t respond for a long time, Rachel wondered if she had been too harsh
on him. “Rog...” She moved her lips to call him, wondering if she should say something to at least ease the tension.
However, before she could say anything, a gentle smile suddenly appeared on Roger’s face. “You don’t need to say anything. I
know,” he said calmly. Rachel was stunned, not expecting what he said. “Then why...” “Two years ago, when I saw the smile on
your face when you said that you were going to marry Victor, I knew that he was the only one in your heart. However, even
though I accepted that, I couldn’t get myself to give up on you.
In fact, I had been lying to myself the whole time, convincing myself that you only married him because I didn’t make any move
back then.” Roger sighed deeply and let out a bitter smile. “I actually thought of finally letting go of you. When I cback from
abroad and learned that you were pregnant with his child, I told myself that it might be the right time.” Meanwhile, Rachel pursed
her lips, said nothing, and just listened. Roger chuckled as if mocking himself.
“But guess what? I still couldn’t. Since the first tI saw you in high school, I fell deeply in love with you. However, it was only
until years had passed when I finally realized that. Unfortunately, it was too late. I really wanted to let go, but my feelings for you
looking at Rachel’s face. She really thought that Rachel would be moved by Roger’s heartfelt speech.
But to her surprise, she didn’t seem to be touched at all. The maid couldn’t help but be taken aback. If a man like Roger
confessed his love to her so affectionately, she knew that she would instantly get choked with her own tears. Then, she would
run in his arms without any hesitation. On the other hand, Rachel remained very calm, as if what Roger had said meant nothing
to her. To be exact, she couldn’t feel anything about it.
“Rachel, you don’t need to react. I’m not asking for an answer,” Roger explained, worried that Rachel might take it the wrong
way. “You don’t need to feel burdened. Just think of it asfinally saying the things I had been dying to say. But still, I mean
what I said just now. If you are unhappy with him, just say the word.
I can take you away. I know it is impossible for you to fall in love withat once, and I know how hard it is to let go of someone
you’ve loved for a long time. But I can wait. I can wait for you to get over him and accept my feelings.” Roger stared intently into
her eyes, trying to read what was on her mind. Hearing this, Rachel sighed inwardly, knowing that her words were not ruthless
enough to let Roger down. “I’m sorry, Roger. You think it is okay? That I don’t need to feel burdened? But I do feel burdened
about it.”
Hearing this unexpected answer, Roger was stunned. “Letget this straight. Roger, your love is a burden to me.” Rachel
“I don’t care if you can get overor not, but I don’t think we should talk or see each other again. I want absolutely nothing
between us. I just cto see you today to say this.” Roger swallowed hard. It was as if he was having a nightmare. He couldn’t
utter a word. Rachel’s words were like sharp knives repeatedly stabbing his heart, making it hard for him to breathe of course,
Rachel instantly saw how Roger’s face turned pale. She had to admit that this time, she tried to hurt him as much as she could.
Rachel took a deep breath to calm herself down before she spoke again.
“I think I’ve made myself clear. Now, please excuse me. I need to go.” “Rachel, wait!” Roger called out in his hoarse voice.
Seeing that she was about to leave, he cto his senses and quickly grabbed her wrist. However, as Roger stopped Rachel
from leaving, someone suddenly appeared and hurriedly approached Roger.
Bam!
The next second, Roger was punched hard right in his face. He was caught off guard, not expecting that someone would
suddenly hit him. As he staggered backward, his grip on Rachel’s wrist loosened. Even Rachel was completely dumbfounded
when she saw the man who punched Roger.
With a cold and dark expression, Victor stood in front of Roger with clenched fists. The veins on his temples bulged slightly, and
the aura around him was terrifying Nobody knew when he showed up in this place. In fact, even Rachel didn’t hear that he was
coming towards them.
At this time, blood trickled down from the corner of Roger’s mouth. As soon as he stood firm and wiped the blood with his hand,
Victor cat him again. However, Roger was standing right by the railing. If he was hit by Victor again, he might fall off the ship
“Roger, watch out!” Rachel shouted anxiously.
