Filed to story: Sweetheart Do You Still Love Me
Unfortunately, Max lost the relationship with such a good girl.
Both of his two older brothers came back with their partners, and Margot didn’t know if it would be a blow to him.
As a result, her mood became complicated with both joy and worry.
Although they all knew each other, it was still somewhat uncomfortable to eat together.
Blake was the most relaxed among them.
For some reason, his personality had undergone a big change since he started dating Lisa.
He kept serving her food with a big smile on his face.
“You should eat more.Look how skinny you are.My mom’s cooking is so delicious.If you like it, I’ll bring you here every day.”
Lisa smiled awkwardly and took the food, but Elspeth could see that Blake’s face suddenly tightened.
If she was right, Lisa must’ve stepped on his foot.
This was getting interesting.
Seeing them being so intimate with each other, Margot couldn’t help but ask, “When are you two getting married, I.isa and Blake? If you’re happy with each other, both of our families can meet and then we can hold the wedding.”
Lisa was usually calm, but she was taken aback by this and forced a smile.
“Mrs.Winthrop, Blake and I aren’t even together yet…”
Margot’s mood instantly turned sour.
She twisted Blake’s ear and scolded him, “Blake, if you can’t handle a matter as simple as getting Lisa to agree to go out with you within a month, you won’t be allowed to come back to this house!”
Blake was first stepped on before he was threatened to be kicked out of the house, so he looked like he was about to cry.
Why am I always the one getting hurt?
In the end, Blake couldn’t help but retort, saying, “Lisa lost her parents.You don’t even know this, and here you are, rubbing salt into her wound.”
When Margot heard that, a pained expression flitted across her face.
“Lisa, I’m so sorry.I should’ve tried to learn more about you.Blake never told me about this before.I shouldn’t have disregarded your feelings when I was talking just now.”
She truly didn’t expect Lisa to be an orphan.
Looking at Lisa, Margot was both heartbroken and upset.
“Lisa, if you’re willing, just relax and marry into our family.If Blake mistreats you, I’ll break his legs.”
In the blink of an eye, she was on the young lady’s side.
Blake thought his words could evoke a sense of regret in Margot, but he didn’t expect her to be so loving toward Lisa.
Did she say shed break my legs? Geez!But things should be fine this way.
Lisa, who had never experienced the warmth of a family, would probably be very touched by Margot’s love and care.
She might feel even happier this way.
When Blake thought of his future darling wife living in happiness, he felt that getting his legs broken would be a small price to pay.
“Thank you, Mrs.Winthrop…”
Lisa’s hand froze as it held the fork.
The touching words had caused a ripple to spread across her heart.
“Look at how thin you are! Come, eat more.”
Margot hastily placed more meat onto Lisa’s plate.
“Thank you, Mrs.Winthrop, but it’s okay.You’ve already given me so much food that I might not be able to finish everything.”
As Lisa watched Margot bustling about, her heart softened even more.She then looked at Blake, who wore a brilliant smile on his face.She suddenly felt that getting married to him wasn’t too bad after all.
Margot noticed Lisa’s touched expression, then gave Blake a hinting look.He immediately understood as he suddenly reached out and took Lisa’s hand.
Before she could react, he said earnestly, “Lisa, please be my girlfriend”
Lisa was stunned.
Blake had thought of confessing before, but she kept thinking that the timing wasn’t right or that she hadn’t prepared herself yet, so she never said yes.
Now, under these circumstances, she felt that if she disagreed, things might turn awkward for him.
She then thought about how Margot had treated her just now.
Lisa nodded right away as a faint blush tinted her cheeks.
“Okay.”
Just as expected, Blake really needed Margot’s help to convince Lisa.He was so happy that he was smiling like a fool.
If they weren’t dining, he would’ve picked Lisa up and twirled in circles with her.
“You finally agreed to be my girlfriend! Don’t worry.I’ll love you wholeheartedly from today onward.”
He had been sticking to her for months, but he never gave up, and he had stubbornly persisted in following her.
Her heart wasn’t made of stone, after all, so it had begun softening a long time ago.
However, she hadn’t experienced much love since she was young, so she never dared to believe in love from anyone.
After all this time, she also felt that Blake might be the person she could spend her life with.
Lisa snorted.
“Don’t just talk the talk.Remember to walk the talk too”
“But of course.I’ll definitely do it better than anyone”
Callum, who had been smilingly watching the intimate interactions between the two, felt a sudden wave of discomfort.
Why did he feel like he was being compared? “What do you mean by that?”
Realizing that Callum was taking it personally, Blake shrunk back a little.
After all, he had always greatly respected Callum, so he naturally wasn’t in a position to tease Callum at the moment.
“Callum, you’re overthinking.I didn’t mean it like that.”
Callum smiled faintly.
“Good.”
In reality, Blake’s words had accidentally offended someone other than Callum.It was Max, who was keeping quiet at the side as he focused on eating.
His presence was so easily overlooked that when everyone was having fun, they completely forgot about him.
Out of nowhere, almost everyone simultaneously looked over at him.
Max was in a daze, and when he suddenly [elt everyone’s eyes on him, he looked up with a bewildered expression.
