Chapter 185 Do Not Run Away From Me
Although a lot of manpower was needed to move these roses from all places in the world, he figured that it was worth it because he knew that Vania would like it.
While Vania felt a heart skipping a beat momentarily, her rationale told her to remain calm before she said coldly, “Hanson, do not do this again next time.”
“Why? I’m serious about what I said previously. I want to marry you.”
Hanson got defensive, and he desperately wanted her to understand him.
On the other hand, Vania was trying her best to be patient. “Hanson, my situation is really complicated. Besides, we don’t suit each other since I already have children now.”
“Why don’t we suit each other? I have children too, and that makes us even.”
Hanson didn’t mind the fact that Vania had children since he had them too.
Even if she still cared about her ex, that was already in the past, so why would it matter since that man was already gone?
However, Vania sighed. “Although we have known each other for a while now, we don’t quite understand each other at all. I know that you have helped me out a lot of times, and I’m grateful for it, but we don’t have feelings for each other, and you’re not even my boyfriend, so why are you talking about marrying me?”
Besides, she wasn’t in a position to think about her marriage when she still couldn’t find her daughter’s whereabouts.
Nevertheless, Hanson stared at her intently. “Let’s not discuss those, then. Will you be willing to give us a chance to understand each other?”
Upon hearing that, Vania was stunned as this was her first time hearing Hanson speaking to her in such a humbling manner, and he was begging to get her opinion.
Right then, she lowered her head. She didn’t dare to meet his gaze since she didn’t know how to reject him.
Still, Hanson understood what she meant and didn’t try to force her. “I’m willing to wait for you until the day you agree to give me a chance. However, I want you to promise me something.”
“What is it?” Vania finally looked up to face him.
“Promise me that you won’t try to run away from me. At the very least, we can start from being friends.”
The way Hanson spoke was extremely humbling.
All this while, he had only been approached by woman after woman, and Vania was the only one who would distance herself away from him.
In fact, if those women found out that Hanson had to beg Vania not to reject him, they would probably get pissed off.
Just then, Vania looked into his eyes and saw her own reflection.
She really couldn’t understand why Hanson was so adamant about chasing her.
Maybe that’s because he doesn’t understand me well, and he will give up when he finally knows me better.
As for being friends, as long as Hanson was willing to, she didn’t mind being friends with him.
After contemplating for a while, Vania nodded in agreement. “Sure, but I have a request as well.”
“Go on.” Hanson was willing to put up with whatever request that she had.
“Stop buying me expensive stuff.”
Vania really didn’t want to owe him anything since she couldn’t be sure about what the future held for the two of them, and he was being too generous with his spending on her.
“Sure. It’s a deal, then.”
Hanson agreed to her request.
Looks like I’m slowly getting to know her more, and our relationship seems closer than before.
Then, he changed the topic and started introducing the manor and explaining the meaning of the roses to Vania.
As he wasn’t a gardener, he only managed to know all about the flowers after a late-night knowledge dump yesterday.
Fortunately, he was able to learn things quickly and learned almost everything within a night.
After talking things out with Hanson, Vania looked visibly relieved and started listening to him seriously.
Since they had similar points of view on certain issues, they managed to have a joyful discussion.
