Chapter 217: Picking sweet fruit

"What's the relationship between us? I take care of you for the sake of the children, so don't get the illusion that I want to come back." Vera explained what she did, she couldn't accept to love him when they had nothing to do with each other but children. She wanted to keep something to herself, nothing could be given to him, this was the only sanctity she had left. So if he didn't speak first, she wouldn't say anything.

"I know. I also wish it wasn't a wish. I'll have to work harder on my feet." Going to be the first thing he would do would be to propose to her. This time will be different from the last time and no matter what, he will not let go of her hand. But how could he tell her?

"Right now with my legs, I can't promise you anything. I can't give you the most accurate answer, but if possible, I still hope to have a happy life with you, we live together until we grow old. We go together to the ends of the earth. If there is that day, will you be willing to live with me again?"
