Chapter 975: Raphael Is Too Stubborn
"You h she could hear the
How could she s better? As her father said, she was a calamity Her birth killed her mother, the love of his life, and that made him unable to love her - so, all his bad treatment of her was because of her own fault
She also caused Julian's death, just like she caused Leia to be beheaded by King Draco Julian would still be alive by now if she was not so dumb as to force him to stay for that fateful banquet
How could Raphael tell her that she ret it when Rowena destroyed his life, just like she did to everyone who loved and cared about her
"You don't believeas it so hard to get through to her It's like she pulled up a wall around her and when he thought he had broken it down, another wall caently
"You are very sweet"Then she looked down "What should I do with you?"
"Take me as I am," Raphael said with a smile "If you are unsure and don't knohat to do with me, allow me to make that decision and insert myself into your life and keep you with me forever"
He clasped his hands with hers and kissed the back of her right hand He looked her in the eye, trying to understand as in her ht They were not so powerful since they couldn't read s and they had i, Raphael wished he could read Rowena's mind to understand her and see all the wounds in her heart that needed healing
"Raphael" Other women must feel lucky to receive such a love confession from aht she was the perfect woman, like how her father tried to shape her That's why he seemed so enamored now
However, when he finally saw the real her, he would understand that behind her beauty and her perfection, she was just a wreck and bad luck
"Yes, Rowena?" Raphael asked her
"I bring bad luck to the people who love ht about it, she decided to be honest with Raphael and let him make an inforht She needed to make him see the reality before he really iving his happened to you and the people who are close to you," Raphael responded "That doesn'tbad luck"
"If it's just once or twice, I believe you," Rowena insisted "But it's always the saave birth to me I killed her And her death broke le to raisehis heart"
"No, Rowena, you were just a baby What did a baby know about adults' problems?" Raphael pulled Rowena to sit on a nearby bench He placed her on his lap and
hugged her to comfort her "It was a very unfortunate situation but it's really not your fault Please don't blame yourself"
Rowena tried to be brave as she recounted everything about her that made her think she was bad luck ould just ruin Raphael's life
The man listened patiently and always refuted her claim as nicely as possible "You were seven You didn't know that your father would do such an evil thing to Leia If anything, it was on him, NOT you"
