Chapter 322: Just Hug if You Want to
In the lobby, Ivy asked Blake in a low voice, "Do you like my sister?"
At that moment, Maria had just returned and stood behind Blake, eagerly waiting to hear him say that he liked her.
"I... I... I..."
Blake struggled with his words, unable to give an answer, his face redder than wine.
Ivy sighed deliberately, "Ah, so you don't like my sister after all. I suppose she is older than you and a widow..."
"No, I do like her, I really do!" Blake hastily interrupted.
Ivy cleared her throat, "What do you like about her? Be clear with your words!"
"I like Maria..."
As Blake said Maria's name, he turned his head in caution, looking towards the direction of the restroom, afraid that Maria might overhear.
Little did he know that as he turned his head, his eyes met with Maria's.
"I like you too, I'm just afraid that I am not good enough for you." Maria blushed and lowered her head, feeling insecure.
"No, it's me who isn't good enough for you. I... I have a dark complexion..." Blake felt even more insecure, worrying that Samantha wouldn't approve of a dark-skinned son-in-law and might come out to stop them immediately.
"No, your complexion isn't dark. In my eyes, you are handsome, very manly, exuding masculinity from head to toe." Maria blurted out all her thoughts at once, feeling so relieved.
Receiving such recognition, Blake suddenly felt more confident.
"Maria, in my eyes, you are a very virtuous and kind woman, and also very beautiful. Although you may not be the most beautiful in the world, you have a unique beauty that captivates me. I... I have already been mesmerized by you."
Blake scratched his head in embarrassment.
"As long as you don't mind my dark complexion, I will be with you, treating you with all my heart and spending my whole life with you."
Maria excitedly bit her lip, "I don't mind your complexion, I actually like the color of your skin. As long as you don't mind my age, I will be with you, treating you with all my heart, not only in this lifetime but also in the next."
These two, the way they speak to each other, it's as if the whole world only consists of the two of them.
Ivy originally wanted to go to the bar to get a glass of water, but upon hearing their sweet whispers, she suddenly felt a bit redundant. She quietly crouched down and tried to hide herself.
"Maria..." Blake called out softly, his determined eyes shining brightly.
"Blake..." Maria murmured with affection, biting her red lips.
Blake reached out his hands, wanting to embrace Maria, but then hesitated and withdrew them.
Just hug if you want to!
"Fool!" Maria took the initiative and threw herself into Blake's arms.
He was so tall, so strong, and made her feel so secure.
Maria buried her face in Blake's embrace, her soft hands wrapped around his waist.
Blake was filled with excitement, tightly embracing Maria, his heartbeat uncontrollably accelerating.
Hearing this strong and resolute heartbeat, Maria knew that Blake truly liked her.
She beamed with joy on her face.
Samantha couldn't sleep, tossing and turning in her bedroom, feeling like something bad was about to happen.
When she opened the door, she saw Maria and Blake embracing each other, and with a firm knock on the door, she expressed her disapproval.
"Maria, I have a headache, give me a massage!"
"What? Oh!" Maria immediately left Blake's embrace, blushing, she went to Samantha's room.
Blake watched Maria's figure leave, he sighed deeply.
Sigh, even if he wants to marry Maria, he has to pass Samantha's test first.
"Brother-in-law, don't worry, I will help you." Ivy called out directly, addressing him as brother-in-law, which made Blake excited and a little overwhelmed.
Is it too early to call him brother-in-law now?
"Our characters haven't even been established yet, and my mother-in-law hasn't agreed either." Blake blushed and spoke to Ivy.
"I will settle this for you tomorrow." Ivy clapped her hands and confidently returned to her own room. She already had a perfect plan in mind.
