Chapter 1048


    Although ine had restrained herself, her voice still carried some resignation and crying.


    Darnell''s lips were pursed and he spoke again, his tone calm: "ine, you are still studying, and the


    matter of having a child should not be in your ns."


    ine lowered her eyes again, her fingers gripping the corner of the quilt, "Was that in your n?"


    "Not in."


    This answer waspletely expected by ine.


    She added, "I should ...... be leaving for Switzend the day after tomorrow, I ......"


    ine paused and didn''t know what she wanted to say.


    It was as if she had made a desperate choice and would not regret it, no matter what the oue.


    But yet trying to catch a glimpse of hope in thest hours.


    It is true that not wanting to get pregnant out of wedlock is just an excuse, what she really wants is to


    get married to him.


    But he also avoided refusing to do so.


    ine is a little bewildered, two or three years is so long, what if ...... he really just likes someone else.


    Just as her mood was getting low, Darnell looked at the clock and got up, "I''ming over now."


    When ine responded, only a busy tone was left in the phone''s receiver.


    What did he just say?


    Now ......es over?


    ine put down the phone, the faint lingering emotions in her heart seemed to be washed away a lot.


    She threw the pill in front of her into the trash, rubbed her hair haphazardly, and stopped thinking about


    the mess.


    In fact, Natasha and Darnell both have a point. She is not even capable of taking care of herself now,


    and she certainly can''t take care of small children.


    And, just ...... so many times in the morning, this is only where to follow ah, how can there be so easy


    to get pregnant.


    With renewed vigor, ine trotted downstairs and sat on the swing in the garden to wait.


    Unlikest night''s starry sky dotted with light, tonight''s night sky is dark and gloomy, without a hint of


    light.


    It was as if there was going to be a rainstorm.


    As expected, not long after, the maid came over and said, "Miss, the weather forecast says there will


    be rain in a while, soe in."


    ine swung slightly and turned back, "It''s okay, you go rest first, I''ll go in when it rainster."


    The maid nodded and turned to leave.


    ine''s head leaned on the rattan rope next to her, and her toes nudged the ground with a click.


    Soon, ine felt a cool sensationing from the back of her hand.


    It''s raining.


    ine got up and was about to go inside and wait when she saw a car light up not far away.


    She immediately stopped in her tracks and walked over with a joyful heart.


    When the ck car stopped, Franklin stepped out of it and looked at ine strangely, "ine, what are


    you doing here?"


    ine''s eyes rolled without revealing a w and hugged his arm, "Daddy, I''ming to get you."


    Franklin didn''t suspect much, ine used to asionally run over to pick him up when he came home,


    but that was years ago.


    At that time little girl was less than his chest height.


    Franklin spoke up as hemented, "Well ine, go inside, it''s starting to rain."


    Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    ine answered and looked three steps back in the direction of the door.


    They had just entered the house when the rain fell heavily, smashing densely on the ground and


    making a sound.


    Franklin sat down in the couch, took a breath, and asked again, "ine, what are you always looking


    out for?"


    ine hastily withdrew her eyes: "I was thinking ...... it''s raining again, so it should be a little cold


    tomorrow."


    Franklin smiled and said nothing, but his face was a little stony.


    ine sat next to him, "By the way, Dad, what have you been up to these past two days? You didn''t


    evene homest night."


    Franklin patted her hand, "It''s nothing, work stuff, it''s settled."


    Hearing this, ine patted her chest and exhaled, "That''s good, I thought something big had


    happened, it''s good that it''s okay, it''s good that it''s okay."


    Franklin looked at her like this and opened his mouth to say something, but stopped.


    He said, "ine, Daddy still has some work to do, so I''ll go to the study first, you go to your room early


    and rest."


    ine nodded, "Good night Daddy!"


    After Franklin went to the study, ine went back to the door and looked in.


    Through the dreary rain, she seemed to see an inconspicuous light far beyond the gate.


    ine grabbed an umbre in the foyer, then gingerly made her way out.


    Since Darnell said he woulde to her, he would not go back on his word.


    The night was stormy and the umbre was blown to the east and west. ine held the handle tightly


    and when she got to the door, she looked at the ck Maybach parked at the curb and the smile on her


    face gradually expanded and she knew it had to be him!


    Darnell leaned back in the driver''s seat, his eyes tly looking ahead, one hand casually resting on the


    steering wheel, wondering what he was thinking.


    He did not withdraw his eyes until there was a soft tap on the car window.


    ine stood in the rain curtain with her umbre, her hair wet from the rain and stered to the corner


    of her forehead, her wet eyes filled with light.


    It seems to prate this dark night.


    Darnell quickly opened the car door and stood in front of her, "Why are you out."


    ine struggled on tiptoe trying to hold the umbre up high enough to lift it above his head while


    saying, "You said you wereing to see me ah, my dad just got back so I thought you might not go in


    and came out to see ......"


    Darnell took the umbre from her hand and whispered, "You should have called me."


    ine looked up at him with her own reasoning, "It''s raining so hard that if I call you, you won''t let me


    out."


    Darnell''s dark eyes gazed at her and smiled faintly, "Cold?"


    ine nodded, "A little bit."


    Darnell pulled open the backseat door, "Get in."


    ine immediately climbed into the car obediently.


    Darnell put away the umbre, sat next to her, closed the car door and then took a dry towel and wiped


    the rain from her head and face.


    ine''s eyes looked straight at him, unblinking.


    Darnell said, "What''s the point?"


    ine spoke in a whisper, "Is that why you''reing over here now, to coax me."


    Darnell didn''t deny it: "Well."


    At that, ine was a little happier: "Actually, I''m very good at coaxing, and I wasn''t upset anymore


    when you said you wereing to me."


    Darnell''s lips curled down as he continued to wipe her hands with the towel, "Then it seems I shouldn''t


    havee on this trip."


    ine thought seriously, "Not being sad and being happier are different again."


    Darnell dried the water on her hands, put the towel aside, and then fished something out of his suit


    pocket and put it in her palm.


    ine saw this and her whole body was confused, looked at him and then at the emerald ring in her


    palm and her eyes widened slightly, "This can''t be ...... a proposal, can it?"
