Chapter 1182
He could not imagine the days to come. He understood what Alexander meant by his last sentence.
Was this his way of inviting Ralph over to the Russell Estate to talk things out? Were they still willing to
give him a way out? Although he was doubtful, Ralph could not help but want to head over there.
"I want to go back to the Russell Estate," Ralph said as he gently pried away her hand. Hannah, who
was initially delighted, widened her eyes in shock.
"Have you lost your mind?! They kicked you out. Your mother doesn't want you anymore. Why do you
want to go back? Are you going back there to get yourself humiliated?"
"No, I just want to confirm some things," he replied, lowering his gaze.
"What do you want to confirm?! That you're not her son? That she betrayed you and made you what
you are now?!" Hannah reached out to hug him from behind.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"I understand how you feel.I understand the desire for your family's affection all too well. However, I
also understand that familial ties mean nothing in the face of personal interests.
"Families would even kill their own daughter for their own personal interests. Don't go. Isn't it enough
that you have me? I'm the only one that will always be by your side, and I'm the only one that'll treat
you right.I'm the only one that won't leave!"
She tightened her embrace, refusing to let him go.
Ralph was strangled to the point that he could hardly breathe.He gently pulled her hands to loosen her
grip, but it was to no avail.
In the end, he could only allow himself to be hugged that way helplessly.
Then, he softly said, "I know you've been the best to me, and I know you will never leave me, but...we
can't just live like this forever."
"Why not?!"
Hannah interrupted and turned to stare at him.
"We'll be fine once we go back to my family.As long as my sister dies, I'll be an only child. They won't
be so particular anymore.
"The servants on the island are all loyal to my family. They won't say anything. On top of that, no one
even knows I have a sister. We can live a secluded, carefree life!"
This was an ideal life for her.
Just the two of them, with no one in between.
They could live happily together in peace.
On the other hand, Ralph felt his body go numb just thinking about it. His free-spirited self could never
endure such long, boundless loneliness and boredom.
Even the thought of it made him shiver.
"No, Annie.As humans, we need to communicate with the outside world. There's no way around it.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEven if we live on the island one day, we can't avoid the outside world forever. There will always be
people we'd have to deal with."
Although he had patiently explained his point, Hannah still didn't understand it.
"Why not?! I've not been in contact with anyone since I was a child. Besides my parents and sister, I
had no friends or classmates.No one! Look where I am now! I'm doing fine!" She exclaimed, patting
herself on the chest.
"We can do it. We'll be happy!"
After saying that, she noticed the reluctance on Ralph's face, and her face immediately darkened.
"Don't you like being with me?"
"No, of course I do!" Ralph quickly denied it.
"It's an honor for me to have you by my side, even in my current state. How could I not like being with
you?"
"Good. I'll finish up the company's business, and we'll go home as soon as possible. Wait for me! I'll be
quick!" With that, she happily ran off to the study to start on her work.
