Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 5434

“Who said anything about acting? Look at me, Noelle. Stop backing away. Let’s have an honest conversation,” said Laurence.

Noelle looked at him.

“Noelle, do you know why I bought this necklace? At first, it was because it belonged to my ancestors. As a descendant, it was my duty to bring it back.

“But the second reason I bought it was to give it to you as a token of my love.”

A token of his love?

Noelle looked at him, stunned.

The panic in her eyes became even more obvious.

‘Oh no. Is Mr. Laurence really confessing to me?’

This necklace once belonged to the wife of the head of the Longbottoms. Although she had later given it to her daughter as a wedding gift, whenever people saw the necklace, the first thing they thought of was the lady of the Longbottoms.

It symbolized the position of the lady of the house.

However, Laurence said he bought it back to give it to her as a love token. That meant…

“S-sir, s-stop joking around. That’s not funny at all. How could I accept such a precious gift? I… Y-You… There’s no w-way…”

Poor Noelle was so overwhelmed that she could not form a complete sentence.

Laurence placed the necklace back into the box, took two steps forward, and held Noelle’s shoulders firmly, declaring, “I’m not joking, Noelle. You know I never joke about things like this.

“Everything I’ve said is true. I love you, Noelle. I love you very, very much. It’s not a joke.

“I never dared to confess to you before because I was afraid I might die, or that I’d drag you down with me. This time, after Mom and Master’s arrival, they talked to me and made me realize a lot of things.

“To everyone else, we’ve always been a unit. Whether I want it or not, you’re already involved. In that case, there’s no point in suppressing my feelings for you anymore. I promise you that I will never let anyone hurt you.

“Noelle, we grew up together. You’re the person who’s been by my side longer than anyone else. Our bond is deep. I believe that you also have feelings for me. Noelle, will you be my girlfriend?

“When I’ve firmly established my position in the Longbottom family, we’ll get married. The person who’ll be the wife of the family head can only be you.”
