Chapter 897 - Have You Ever Missed Me? (2/2)
Nicolae put his hands in his pockets and shrugged. His face looked radiant. ”I bought the apartment because I wanted to preserve all the memories of you there. I told you I go to Singapore once a year. I usually stay there and remember you ...”
Marie was stunned to hear the man's words. She now believed that Nicolae really loved her after they were separated. The man even bought her apartment!
Unfortunately, there was no crying over spilled milk. They couldn't turn back time. All they could do now was starting over from scratch... together.
Marie was so touched when she heard Nicolae's statement. Subconsciously she stepped forward and hugged the man.
”I ... love you so much,” Marie finally confessed what she had said in her heart. ”I thought you were gone. Every time I see Summer, I see you ... and it gives me the strength to go through my lonely life.”
Nicolae returned Marie's embrace and stroked her hair lovingly. Even though they hadn't seen each other for nearly six years, it felt like only yesterday that he and Marie met and spent time together.
Flashes of memories of their togetherness immediately filled his mind ... He remembered when he and Marie stayed Mrs. Lu's side in the hospital to face her last days.
They finally got married in the hospital chapel. They played at Universal Studios. They rented a catamaran and scattered Mrs. Lu's ashes into the sea. They drank in Sky Bar. They slept together, and then made love many times in the morning ...
”I love you, Marie. I am very grateful that you are back in my life ...” whispered Nicolae while kissing Marie's head. ”I want you and Summer to come with me immediately. I want to take you to meet my father and ask for his blessings ...”
Marie raised her face and looked at Nicolae's face, which was only inches away from hers, then she nodded. ”OK.”
Nicolae was elated to hear that. He couldn't wait to tell Lauriel and Alaric about this! His father and brother would be happy to hear that Nicolae had finally found the woman he loved and their child. Nobody could understand Nicolae's feelings right now better than Lauriel and Alaric.
He grabbed the back of Marie's head and tilted his head down slightly to kiss her. Marie closed her eyes and accepted Nicolae's lips on hers. They kissed lovingly. Koi, who witnessed the two lovebirds making out, looked astonished and frozen in its place.
The kisses became more passionate as Marie involuntarily let out a soft m.o.a.n, which made Nicolae even more excited. He rubbed Marie's hair, neck, and c.a.r.e.s.sed her back with his left hand, while his right hand hugged her waist.
His tongue slipped through Marie's half-opened lips and roamed her mouth passionately. Marie felt her mind went blank, and she suddenly forgot that the purpose of their coming here was to get their stuff.
They kissed more intimately, and could no longer keep their hands off each other. Finally, they moved to Leon, the couch, and continued making out there. Even though they were apart for many years, Nicolae still remembered and missed Marie's scent. She always smelled like fresh citrus.
As he pressed down on Marie's body under him, he could feel her temperature rise and her s.e.xy m.o.a.n started to cloud his mind. Nicolae really loved this girl. He really missed her. And now, all his longing for her was filling his c.h.e.s.t to the brim.
”Marie ... baby ...” he whispered after letting go of Marie's lips, and now they looked at each with their noses touching. ”Have you ever missed me?”
Marie looked at Nicolae with her brown eyes glittering with tears that began to well up. The girl nodded slowly. ”I always miss you...”
Nicolae closed his eyes and kissed Marie again very intimately. When he opened his eyes, he smiled happily. ”I'm happy to hear that.”
Marie became flushed red. But a moment later, her hands wrapped around Nicolae's neck. They slowly went down, traced his shoulders all the way to his c.h.e.s.t, and finally started unfastening the buttons on his shirt. Nicolae looked down at Marie's work and smiled.
