Chapter 372 - 369: Honeymoon VI (1/2)

Serena shook her head hearing Geoffrey laugh. Even though it was at her expense, she could not help but smile. She was still not used to it. Seeing Geoffrey laugh and act carefree. Ever since she met him, although he would act passionately, or even impudent, what with his overly possessive actions at times, he was still always composed with a gloomy aura.

Even on their wedding day which he told her was the happiest day of his life, he just smiled happily, but not like this. There was just something different. Like, he was full of sunshine? Whatever it was, she liked it.

Geoffrey seeing Serena's smiling face had to ask, ”What are you smiling about?”

”I just realized that I never heard you laugh this way before. Do you really think that me, liking to read romance novels, funny?”

Geoffrey paused, realizing what he did. He smiled as he pulled her closer, enclosing her in his embrace. Then, he kissed her forehead. Pulling back a little to look at her, he saw that she was waiting for his answer. He tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear. ”No, it's not that. It's just that these days, as we spend more time together, I am realizing that a lot of things I thought I knew about you were actually false.”

Serena pretended to pout. ”Is that a good thing or a bad thing?”

Geoffrey pecked her lips. ”It's always good. I love you very much, Serena. I doubt that anything in this world could ever change that.”

Serena felt a tugging in her heart, happy and guilty at the same time. No. The past is in the past. There's no looking back. She hugged his waist. Then she asked the question she has always longed to ask. ”Why? Why do you love me so?”

”How could I not love you so?”

Sometimes, Serena thinks that Geoffrey's love for her was too good to be true, but at the same time, she believes it. There was absolutely no reason for him to act this way if his love for her was fake. ”Sometimes, I just find it so hard to believe…” she whispered.

Geoffrey caressed her hair. ”Serena, remember this. If one day everything in this world turns out to become lies, always know that my love for you is real.”

Serena pulled back to look him in the eye. ”You're not lying?”

”When have I ever lied to you?”

Serena bit her lip trying not to smile too happily.

On the seventh night of their honeymoon, Serena could already feel that she would miss this. They have been living in a bubble these past few days and tomorrow, they would be going back to Windsor to face reality.

Anyhow, Serena whose head was nestling on the crook of Geoffrey's arm looked up to see if he was still awake.

Their eyes met and they smiled at one another.

”What is it?” Geoffrey asked, his voice gentle.

”I was just wondering, what was it like to be born as the crown prince?” Serena asked, curious.

”Why are you asking?” Geoffrey asked back.

Serena hit his chest playfully. ”You know, you always have that habit of asking questions in return rather than just answering my question.”

Geoffrey chuckled. ”Aside from the luxury and title, I should say, plenty of expectations.”
