Chapter 287 - I trust you. But Im scared (1/2)

Muchen had wanted to surprise her by going on time to pick her up.

He had also planned to go to their apartment to say hello to her father and Joreen.

Earlier, after Minde told him all of that and showed him a picture of Sara and Yue King, he had been really worried about her.

He grew up minding his business and never interfered in other people's affair unless they were related to him and asked for his help.

But ever since he met Sara, he had interfered more than he could count.

From the first day he saw her in the bar, he had asked Minde not to do anything to her because he deserved it, and had refused to help him take revenge.

The next time he saw her, he did not know what possessed him to ask Ms Long to make sure the security at Jinyong and Weiyoung's engagement party do not throw her out.

He had asked Ms Long to follow her and acted like none of it concerned him, asked someone to go pick her up and to make sure she got home safely.

He had even manipulated everything so she would work for him.

Now that he thought about it, he saw how jobless and childish he had been then.

And what about what he did to the Lius? What about Zhang Hansong? What about Mo Jinyong?

It was not difficult to know he had fallen for her even before he admitted it to himself.

But he felt interfering in this present issue that involved Yue King was something Sara would not like very much.

He was curious to know what she was hiding. Why could she not tell him? Why was she so fearful?

And whenever he thought she did not trust him, he felt sad instead of angry.

He knew what she had gone through in the hands of her so called friend and boyfriend.

So he did not want to pressure her into trusting him. He wanted her to willingly open herself to him. It was why he was being careful.

He had planned to postpone asking her to marry him until he thought she was ready. But now, if he continued to leave her like this, a lot of people were going to continue to bully her.

And because of that, he had spent the entire day shopping for a ring he thought she would like.

He was not sure Sara could trust him with her life. But he really hope so and had been nervous the entire day.

'What if she says no?' That question had been haunting his mind the entire day.

It was the reason he had not told Minde of his plans to ask her to marry him because he felt Minde would bring out his pessimistic self and ask him that particular question. But now, even his mind would not let him rest?

He wanted to be her backbone. He wanted everyone to know she was his woman and if they dared touch her, he was going to end them like they never existed. Yue King was too small for him. In one day, he could finish him off and whoever was backing him.

But first, he wanted that full right to meddle so she would not be angry when she found out.

He had also not raised the issue about his suspicion that Miss Changyu was her mother.

He smiled at the thought of his little Sara being his wife while her mother was also more powerful than he was. But when he thought about how much trouble that might cause him since Changyu was difficult and might not like him, he frowned.

At that time when he was outside her apartment, he was about getting down from his car to go see her family in their apartment when he received a text from her to tell him she would not be free until the next two hours.

His brows contorted and he wondered what could possibly interfer with their date. He would have thought since she was a woman she needed time to dress up and all, but he knew Sara was not the type to dress up for hours. In fact, she was even faster than him when it got to dressing up.

He decided to just wait there till whenever she was ready since he was still very nervous. It did not take long before he saw her hurry down looking ever so pretty.

He had only seen her wearing a gown a few times and he realised just how much he loved this look also.

But where was she going to?

And then, he saw her approach the familiar looking man.

He watched their entire conversation even if he could not hear them, he saw how Sara was reluctant to get in the car while it looked like King was trying to convince her.

He could no longer watch since he was brimming with anger.

He had to go rescue her first and that was why he showed himself to them.

But he was slightly mad at Sara. Snubbing her had been on purpose. That was the only punishment he could have given to her. And that was the only way she could have agreed to whatever he asked her to do.

And he had been correct!

When he saw her take the first dip, he had been very nervous also.

He really and desperately wished she would be able to do it because he knew she was brave and if she could only put her mind to it, she would be able to achieve anything.

And she had done it!

His heart had really pounded with excitement when he saw her slowly swim to where he was.

He wanted her to know that he would always be there for her. There to help her overcome her fears. And he would not leave no matter what.

”Just like this, I want to help you come out from all of your fears.”

”I want to have the full right to meddle in your affairs.”

”I want people to know that when they are messing with you, they are messing with me.”

”Just like this... I want to always be beside you. Because I love you.”

”Marry Me Sara Wang...Please”

Sara's eyes were wide opened and her mouth formed an O shape.

Her eyes moved from looking at his face back to the ring on his hand.

He was asking her to marry him?
