Chapter 183 Trying
"Yes. I hope that no matter where you go and how high you fly, you'll always remember that there's a man named Edwin here, waiting for you."
These words came from the mouth of Edwin Anderson. If word of this got out, those who knew him would think that it was a prank, because the young master of the Anderson family was never one to back down.
In the past, even Edwin himself probably never thought that he would compromise to this extent because of someone or something.
However, Caroline was different. Although he wanted to tie her to his side all the time and make her only see him.
However, it was precisely because Caroline was so important to him that he could not ignore her wishes and the heavy burden on her.
Caroline was destined to soar in the sky. He couldn't break her wings just because of his own selfishness. He could only think of ways to help her with his own abilities. Unfortunately, even this request couldn't be fulfilled because Caroline hadn't completely opened her heart to him yet.
Edwin didn't want to experience the torment of waiting outside the villa that night again, so he could only convince himself to take a step back and approach her from a more roundabout way.
"So, I hope that at least in front of me, Caroline, you can be yourself without any burden. You can let yourself go, you can do whatever you want, you can try to rely on me, and you can even go back on your words. Just like I said before, in my eyes, you will never have a 'shouldn't'."
Caroline couldn't explain what she was feeling. She was a little happy, a little confused, and a little scared. She licked her dry lips nervously. It was rare for her tongue to be so clumsy. "Edwin, I don't know. I think maybe you're right, but I don't really understand. Do you understand what I mean?"
Edwin, who was a little sad at first, found her clumsy reaction adorable. He couldn't help but reach out and hook her little nose. "I understand. You don't need to understand. Just don't reject me, my little girl."
The touch on her nose was as light as a feather, but it made Caroline's eyes widen. "What did you call me just now?"
"My little girl," Edwin lowered his head and repeated in her ear. He had repeated this sentence in his heart countless times, and he finally had the chance to say it today.
Edwin chuckled softly. Then, before Caroline could react, he bent down and picked her up. He pushed the door open and walked in.
She suddenly felt weightless. Caroline instinctively exerted strength in her waist and placed her arm on his shoulder. With this support, as long as she twisted her body, she would be able to flip over.
At this moment, Caroline recalled what Edwin said. She hesitated for a moment and tried to release the power in her body.
Edwin was sensitive enough to notice her change. A burst of joy flashed across his heart. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Caroline slowly leaning her head against his heart with a thoughtful expression.
He swallowed the words he had wanted to say and hugged her even tighter.
For the short distance from the door to the villa, neither of them spoke, but silence was better than words.
"Oh my god, what's wrong with you, Miss?" Danika, who had just opened the door and walked out, broke the warmth between the two.
Edwin was a little annoyed. He should have asked the agent to recommend a house with a bigger yard. That way, he would be able to carry Caroline for a longer time.
"Has Ling returned?" Danika's voice attracted Eva's attention. She looked at Caroline who was in Edwin's arms. She tilted her head and asked, "Ling, what's wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"
Caroline was a little embarrassed to be seen in such a weak state. She asked Edwin to put her down. Edwin didn't let go. Instead, he said to Danika, "Her foot is injured. Please help me get the first aid kit."
Although Danika was puzzled as to why Caroline's foot was injured when she was going to a tea party, she was more worried about Caroline's injury than her curiosity. So, she immediately turned around and went to find the first aid box.
Edwin carried Caroline into the living room and placed her on the sofa.
