Too Late, Mr. Cooper: Your Bride Ran with Your Baby novel Chapter 401

Of course, Linton couldn't bear to let go.

He coaxed her, holding Liliana tight, repeatedly kissing the top of her soft hair. As he pressed her against his chest, his eyes, deep as the night, were filled with a tender, possessive warmth he couldn't bear to lose.

A sudden wave of panic washed over Linton.

He realized he couldn't even begin to imagine a life without Liliana in it.

Linton couldn't accept it. Even though he had long decided to gracefully exit her life after the baby was born, it wasn't until today—

When he thought he had been abandoned by the entire world, when even he felt a deep, physical revulsion for his own existence.

The moment Liliana suddenly appeared before him.

Linton felt a dreamlike, almost hallucinatory sensation.

It was as if with Liliana's arrival, his dim, lightless world had burst into color and light. His desolate, decaying life was revitalized, brimming with a newfound vitality.

Linton lowered his gaze to the fuming young woman before him, a possessive tenderness spilling from the depths of his eyes.

It was a selfish thought, perhaps, but…

Linton suddenly leaned in and hugged Liliana tighter, as if trying to meld her soft body into his very bones, completely unwilling to release her.

"Liliana…"

A slow smile graced Linton's lips as he looked at her with gentle eyes. He let out a long sigh, his cool, husky voice thick with complex emotions.

"I'm sorry, but…"

"I still think… that surviving all those years ago, just to meet you and fall in love with you… it was worth it."

Linton felt an overwhelming sense of gratitude.

Even though he was acutely aware of the filth and sin that ran through his veins, even though he himself loathed the very genes and blood in his body.

He still felt it.
