Free Web NovelChapter 213: Confession
Editor: Henyee Translations
"What caregiver? Didn’t I say that I would take care of you? Why are you looking for a caregiver?" Bruce didn’t expect Miranda to suddenly look for a caregiver. He thought that Miranda was slowly accepting him when she hugged him just now.
He didn’t expect her to suddenly chase him away again. For a moment, he couldn’t accept it.
"Bruce, I’ve always treated you as a friend. I’m really grateful to you for taking care of me, but you’re still not as professional as a caregiver. I still prefer professionals." fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
Miranda didn’t look up when she said this. She knew how good Bruce was to her, but now that something like this had happened, she didn’t know what to do, so she could only say this.
"I have nothing to do here now. I can take care of myself. Go."
"Miranda, do you think I really stayed here because you were injured in our company and I stayed here to take care of you because I was sorry? If that’s what you think, then I can tell you clearly that it’s not."
"Bruce, stop. I know you feel sorry for me, but I don’t need your apology."
Hearing Miranda’s words, Bruce took two steps forward and held Miranda’s shoulder. He looked at her and said seriously, "Miranda, I hope you can listen to me now. My staying here to take care of you has nothing to do with the company. Don’t you feel anything? I’m staying here because I like you."
"Can you understand me when I say this? Or can you only understand me if I say it more clearly?" After finally saying what was on his mind, Bruce heaved a sigh of relief.
"I... but I don’t know what I am to you, Bruce. And I’m really afraid that you said that because you’re sorry for me. And I don’t think I have any merits at all. I don’t know what you like about me." Hearing Bruce confess to her, Miranda felt a rush of joy and fear.
She was afraid that Bruce felt guilty towards her because of the company’s incident. That was why he said that he liked her. She was flattered that someone actually liked her, and it was someone who took such good care of her.
"Miranda, don’t say that. I’ve liked you for a long time, but you’re a big star and I’m just a small assistant to the CEO. I never dreamed that we would meet one day."
"But I didn’t expect you to come to our company to be a spokesperson. Do you know? When I saw you, my heart was about to jump out of my chest."
"At first, I thought you and Eric were in a relationship, and I never wanted anything to do with you. But then I saw you being hurt by Eric, and I saw that you were sad. I couldn’t take it. That’s why I threatened Eric. But you know what? Even after I did something like that, I didn’t dare tell you."
"What did you say, Bruce? So you were the one who dealt with Eric’s threat? How could that be? I always thought that President Owen did it." Hearing Bruce’s words, Miranda muttered to herself in disbelief.
"I was afraid you’d reject me and stay away from me. I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to see you again, so I could only say that the CEO did that," Bruce said while looking at Miranda.
"Bruce, why are you so stupid? Why didn’t you tell me?"
"Yes, I am. I was indeed stupid to like you for so long. And if it weren’t for the fact that you were injured and that you broke up with Eric, I might have foolishly waited behind you forever. Perhaps you would have never turned around or seen me, but I still think that would have been very blissful."
As soon as Bruce finished speaking, Miranda threw herself into his arms and tears streamed down her face. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
"What’s wrong, Miranda? Don’t cry." Miranda suddenly started crying, making Bruce panic.
"You fool, I’m touched, okay?" Seeing Bruce so nervous, Miranda looked up from his arms and said.
"Then... then Miranda, can you not chase me away? Can you give me a chance to stay here and take care of you?" After saying this, Bruce looked at Miranda nervously.
"When did I say I was going to chase you away? I just found a nurse. You won’t stay here? Or do you not want to take care of me anymore and want to leave quickly?"
"No, no. Why would I? I’m happy enough to stay here and take care of you."
"Bruce, you’re such a fool," Miranda said and threw herself into Bruce’s arms again. In the past, when she was in love, she had never felt so good when she hugged someone, but now, hugging Bruce made her feel so safe.
The two of them quickly cozied up in the ward, but on the other side, Owen was still handling a bunch of things in the company.
