Chapter 797 797: Do Not Leave Me Tonight
"Do you really know who he is? Is it necessary for him to protect Lake's interests? To pay back to us? Do not be silly. Okay? Nobody thinks of paying back others. If he really doesn't have ambition, he will not ask for Ruby's share. Aren't you clear about his thoughts?" William was really annoyed.
Roy couldn't stand it. He put down his knife and cleaned his mouth with the tissue, saying firmly, "Mom, Uncle, I am determined now, and I will not change my mind whatever you say. I'm sorry if I just cannot live up to your expectations. I'm clear about what I can do and what I cannot. Struggling in the business field is not suitable for me, so what's the purpose of forcing me to be there? Joseph makes every decision, and I cannot fire him. He has paved the way for the Runestone Group, and if he decides to leave, the Group will have no support. In addition, I will not be in the company, but I am still the president. It has no difference. I don't want to just focus on Joseph's behavior every day."
"Roy!"
"Mom." Roy interrupted Shirley's crying and said sincerely, "If you really love me, please just let me do anything that I like. Life is short. I just want to do something I like with the time that I have. It's simple. We really have to go now. I'm sorry."
He stood up quickly, pulled Cassie, and they were to leave.
Cassie was relieved. She felt thankful to Roy by now. She signed to say goodbye and left with Roy, taking her bag.
Roy didn't want to send Cassie to her home, but he decided to go back to his house.
Leaving Shirley's house, Roy got in his car, but he didn't start his car right away. He leaned on the seat, looking a little tired. Cassie didn't ask him any questions, but she could figure out his helplessness and struggle.
After a while, he said in a low voice, "Cassie, could you please stay there with me?"
Cassie took a glance at his side face.
She couldn't grasp his feelings. His voice was low and light, seeming to inquire.
She agreed.
Seeing her nod, he drove home.
After the last incident, Roy's house was a forbidden area for her. Although Cassie had agreed that she would be with Roy and marry him, she felt nervous every time Roy wanted to take her to his house after dinner. Roy was clear about that, so he didn't force her.
However, tonight Roy took her back home. Standing there, she felt stressed. The scene occurred to her mind. She sat on the sofa and didn't say anything.
Roy poured a cup of water for her. As he passed it on to her, Cassie raised her head and stared at him, showing an air of terror. Roy was just concerned that she would be thirsty, but he got it when he saw her expression. He made a forced smile and put the cup down on the table.
He sat down. She felt more nervous. Roy didn't do anything to her. He nestled on the sofa and asked after a while, "Do you think I'm wrong?"
Of course.
Cassie nearly spurted it out.
There were many ways to get someone, but he chose the least rightful one.
Roy stared at her side and smiled lightly, "I mean the decision to leave the Runestone Group and come back to be a captain."
Cassie felt embarrassed that she misunderstood Roy. She didn't get Roy's idea at the very beginning.
"It is really good that you can do something you like." After a while, she answered him.
Roy leaned and pulled her hands lightly. "I'm so sorry that you were blamed by my Mom today."
Cassie was surprised that he said that.
She felt more stressed.
Seeing her speechless, Roy asked lightly, "Are you angry now?"
She shook her head.
"We only live there shortly after our marriage. There will be rare opportunities for you and my Mom to have quarrels." Roy held her hands, saying with a soft voice.
Cassie was not accustomed to that, but she felt happier as she heard his promise. To be honest, she was afraid to get along with Shirley. Obviously, Shirley didn't like her at all.
Roy smiled and clasped her fingers, "If I insist on this, she will not force me. One is my Mom, and the other is my fiancée. I need to make the atmosphere harmonious."
Cassie suddenly felt hot since his palm warmed hers.
Roy looked at her against the light. Her side view looked gentle and beautiful. He felt it hard to resist his love for her.
He couldn't help sitting straight and clenching her hands, "Do you still hate me?"
The man's breath approached her. His strong chest was attached to her arm. She felt hotter.
Did she hate him?
Yes.
But why did she have no strength to hate him?
She had no idea about it.
She was only clear that she was the real ostrich. She could persuade Irish to let nature take its course, but actually, she wasn't clear about her mind. The reason why she wanted to let nature take its course was that she couldn't find the most suitable road.
She could comfort others but not herself.
Cassie lowered her head and said after a while, "Is the answer so important to you?"
Roy was relieved. To be honest, he was afraid that Cassie said "Yes". If it were so, he would be at a loss. Her look was lovely now.
He couldn't help stretching his hand.
As his hand touched her face, she trembled, and he felt that. He moved his hand down to her neck, massaging it lightly.
Cassie didn't move, but he could feel her pressure.
Her look on that night occurred to his mind. On the large sheet, her small figure was just like a shrimp.
He got close to her. His lips touched her face, which was a little cold, while his lips were hot.
"Cassie. Do not leave me tonight." His voice was low and hoarse.
Cassie clenched her hands into a fist, but soon she loosened her grip with her mouth opened slightly. She looked down, and her fear was sheltered under her thick eyelash. Cassie kept silent, her lips trembling.
Roy kissed her thin lips gently while Cassie didn't dodge. Seeing this, Roy felt that a stream of heat flew through his heart, and Adam's apple bobbed in his throat. In the next second, Roy held Cassie with his strong arms, stepping to the bedroom directly.
