Chapter 504
But now, her hands were twisted together, hanging low with her head down, her long eyelashes trembling non-stop.
"I was indeed too impatient." Ivan slowly spoke, breaking the silence in the ward.
His voice was gentle. "We don't have to get married right away, but I would like to get engaged first."
"Engaged?"
Haley raised her head in astonishment.
"Yes, engaged." Ivan looked at her intently. "You are too outstanding, with so many men in Watertown eyeing you, I'm afraid one day you might choose someone else."
Upon looking at Ivan like this, Haley's mood suddenly became complicated.
This man, who stood high above all women in Watertown, was actually feeling insecure.
One must be deeply in love with someone to show insecurity in front of them.
Haley looked at him quietly and said slowly, "Okay."
"You agree?"
A light suddenly lit up in Ivan's eyes.
He couldn't control himself, wanting to pull the woman into his arms.
Haley furrowed her brows. "Lie down properly, don't move around."
But Ivan couldn't lie still.
He wanted to hold Haley tightly in his arms, he wanted to kiss her passionately.
His gaze was too obvious, that aggressiveness, that possessiveness, unabashedly directed toward Haley. Haley was startled and took a step back.
Why did she feel like this man was impatient to confess his love to her, just craving her body? Was it too late for her to regret now?
"It's getting late, you should rest, I'll go pour a glass of water."
Haley turned and left the ward.
Watching her fleeing figure, Ivan couldn't help but laugh.
He finally felt relieved.
She finally became his fiancée.
Now the only thing to consider was when his injury will heal.
Haley stayed in the ward all night.
Although it was quiet enough here, her emotions were complex, and she couldn't sleep well at all.
She got up before dawn.
Just coming out of the bathroom, she saw Ivan staring at her with his bright black eyes.
Her heart also jumped with joy.
She walked over, trying to remain calm. "Are you feeling unwell anywhere? Should I call the doctor to check on you?"
"Good morning, fiancée."
Ivan looked at her and slowly said this sentence.
Haley's forced composure was shattered by this sentence, her ears instantly turning red.
Ivan reached out and grabbed her wrist, pulling her toward him.
Haley was caught off guard and fell into the man's arms.
Her face blushed with embarrassment.
"Ivan, let go, don't be inappropriate!"
But Ivan wouldn't easily let her go.
He finally embraced his fiancée.
Just then, a knocking sound was heard.
