Lingering Doting Marriage: Big Boss, Little Sweet Heart

Chapter 1042: Chapter 1042: Agree or Not, We Will Be Together Chapter 1042: Chapter 1042: Agree or Not, We Will Be Together Old Master Lawrence felt an even stronger sensation of punching into cotton.

He glared at Enna Clark for a moment, and seeing that Enna was truly calm—not feigning calmness—he grimaced and reached out his hand to take the cup.

He quickly took a sip.

The honey water soothed his throat, relieving the burning sensation caused by coughing, making him feel much more comfortable; his brow also smoothed out a bit.

“How is it? Is it too sweet? If it’s too sweet, you have to tell me so I can make it lighter next time,” Enna said, seeing his sickly complexion look a bit better, she felt relieved and asked him.

The Old Master pursed his lips and looked at her, slightly at a loss with her unflappable demeanor and completely unruffled attitude.

To use force?

One does not strike a smiling face.

To use gentler methods?

She pretends not to understand.

He believed he hadn’t spared his feelings just now, even told her bluntly that he didn’t like her, didn’t accept her anymore, yet she could still act as if nothing were wrong, making small talk with him as if everything were normal.

He really didn’t know what to do anymore.

Enna acted as if she hadn’t noticed his dilemma, brought over the plain rice porridge, blew on it, and said, “I heard from the housekeeper that you haven’t really eaten these past few days. I made some porridge, please have a little.”

“The porridge is very light, I put a bit of salt in it, it tastes better than plain, not too bland.”

She had deliberately added a few grains of salt to the Old Master’s porridge because people with colds generally can’t taste much. Although they can only eat bland food, they hardly have an appetite for it.

A bit of salt in the plain rice porridge is the best food for them.

Faced with another bowl offered to him, Old Master Lawrence felt a headache coming on. His attitude wasn’t as hardline as before, but he was still quite resolute, “Ms. Clark, I think you still don’t understand what I mean. Let me be clear with you, I am not testing you, nor am I trying to assess you. What I said earlier, that’s my stance. I will not accept you and Baron being together, do you understand?”

Enna had also put a bit of chopped green onion on the porridge, making it look fresh and palatable. She continued to stir the porridge to cool it down for him without looking up, “I understand.”

“You understand why…”

Before he could finish, the person caring for him at his bedside calmly looked up at him, “Because right now, I am together with Baron Lawrence.”

Old Master Lawrence stared into her eyes, not quite grasping her meaning.

Enna continued, “Haven’t you been against us being together from the start? A year ago in the hotel, you also said the same thing, but as of now, we have always been together. And we will continue to be together in the future.”

“Yes, I have always hoped to gain your acceptance, because you are an elder, not just an elder, but Baron Lawrence’s relative, the grandfather who has been raising him all this time. So if possible, I am willing to make my utmost effort to change your opinion of me and gain your acceptance.”

Enna’s tone shifted.

“But if, no matter what, you still can’t accept me, I won’t insist. I will still follow my heart and do what I believe I should do.”

She spoke rather diplomatically, but Old Master Lawrence heard the underlying message clearly.

All that she said amounted to one thing—whether he accepted it or not, she would be with Baron! His non-acceptance wouldn’t change anything!
