Chapter 385: Chapter 385 Waiting for the Sake of Waiting
Upon hearing this, George River seemed to think of something, his expression slightly changed, with a hint of tenderness as he looked at the person in front of him, reassuring her, "Don’t worry, it’s just some company issues that require my attention, you don’t need to worry."
Upon hearing this, Tiffany Lynch felt somewhat relieved, reaching out to hold the man’s hand hanging at his side.
George River was slightly stunned, only reacting to pull her into his arms.
They indeed hadn’t seen each other for a long time, but during this time, he did not miss her as much as he had imagined.
Often, another face emerged in his mind.
Tiffany Lynch leaned into George River’s arms, bit her lip, and asked again, "George, tell me the truth, were you ... because of me?"
"It’s not because of you," George River interrupted Tiffany Lynch, "Tiffany, don’t overthink things, I’ve got everything under control."
Tiffany Lynch sighed, "I am just worried, after all, I am no longer Eldest Miss Lynch, between us... things are not the same as they used to be."
Five years of separation, at first her waiting might have been rooted in reluctance to let go and admiration, but what about the waiting afterwards?
What she feared most was just waiting for the sake of waiting.
George River released the woman in his arms, lowered his head to look at her, frowning, "Tiffany, how could you think like this, all these years, the only person I’ve loved is you."
Tiffany Lynch’s face turned even redder at the man’s unexpected confession.
She lowered her head, her voice softer than usual, "What if there’s suddenly another person between us?"
George River looked slightly stunned, his expression slightly somber, "Who?"
Tiffany Lynch looked up, opened her mouth to speak, then shook her head, "George, don’t overthink it, I’m just scared. With you being so great, a lot of people must like you, I just..."
Saying this, she suddenly burst into tears.
She turned away, clumsily wiping her tears.
George River felt a pang in his heart, he drew her into his arms.
After all, she was the one he loved and had waited for many years.
"Don’t think too much, I only have feelings for you."
He raised his head to look at the flower petals on the ground, his gaze somewhat vacant, as if the words were said to the woman in his arms, yet also to himself.
He dared not close his eyes.
He was afraid that even with Tiffany beside him, his thoughts would still be of that other person.
He really didn’t dare.
Crack—
The crisp sound of something breaking suddenly disrupted the intimate atmosphere between the two.
Tiffany Lynch seemed to think of something, rapidly letting go of the man in front of her.
Suddenly pushed away, George River found it odd, but he didn’t dwell on it, instead looking in the direction of the noise.
Hannah spread her hands innocently, "I’m sorry, I was just passing by. You two can continue."
Hannah’s role for the day was a peach blossom fairy from the heavenly palace, thus she was dressed in a pink long dress, her hair adorned with delicate pink peach blossoms, making her look charmingly lively.
As she turned to leave, Tiffany Lynch suddenly called out, "Hannah, wait."
Hannah turned around, "What is it?"
Unlike the hatred and jealousy of the day before, in front of George River, Tiffany Lynch was as pure and clean as a lotus flower, even her smile was perfect, she deliberately showed off, "The shooting is about to start. Let’s go together."
Hannah considered for a moment, her eyes gleaming with laughter, her voice especially cheerful, "Okay."
Tiffany Lynch looked at George River, who was lost in thought looking in Hannah’s direction. Her smile faded a bit, but her voice was as soft as water, "George, come and join us, will you?"
