Love's Perfect Match

Chapter 481

Chapter 481 Cajole

She met a young man back when her life was in turmoil, and that lad left a deep impression on her. No

matter how much time had passed, she could never forget him.

Max noticed her eyes. They were gleaming, and he had conflicting emotions. At first, he thought she

hated him or at least harbored a strong dislike, but when she showed up all smiling, Max tossed his

worries behind him. "Thank you. You'll still remain the best woman I've ever met." We used to be in

love.

That brings the conversation to a close. Yelena stood up, ready to leave. "May you keep shining bright

for the rest of your life."

"You too."

That lifted a weight off Yelena's shoulder. She heaved a sigh of relief and was about to leave.

"Oh. If he does treat you badly, come to me. I'll always welcome you."

"Oh, he won't ever treat me badly," said Yelena. There was a hint of pride in her voice, the kind of pride

only a woman loved by someone could have.

"Good. Just kidding."

Yelena came back to the lounge, where Hank was waiting for her. The light shone on him, dragging out

a long shadow on the ground.

Slowly, Yelena approached Hank, and Hank smiled. "Done?" Good. That clingy Max isn't here. His

frown went away.

"Yes." She didn't elaborate lest it upset Hank.

"I'll take you home then." Hank held her hand.

They emerged from the house, but before they got in the car, Hank bent over, and Yelena felt a little

shy that he was so close to her.

"What is it?"

"Nothing. I just think you look good tonight."

If it were any other guy, Yelena would have rolled her eyes, but when it was Hank, she just thought it

was alluring. "It's getting late. We should go home." Yelena didn't want this to go on, or something

lustful might happen. She had experience after all.

"You're in a hurry to leave." Hank was a little upset that she wouldn't stop pushing him away. Why is

she so scared of me? I won't eat her.

"Nothing. Just think the air is a little bit off."

"How so?" Hank was pushing her to say something embarrassing.

Noticing that, Yelena shot him a glare, but he didn't really see it as a threat.

"Tell me, or we're not leaving."

"You're so unreasonable." Yelena mustered up her strength to push him away, but he wouldn't budge.

"I'm unreasonable?" Hank suddenly didn't want to tease her anymore, or she might just cry. "Alright,

you're off the hook." He stood back up so she could take a breather. "Get in. I'll take you home."

Surprised that Hank would let her go just like that, Yelena quickly got in the car, but for some reason,

she felt a little disappointed. Because nothing happened? No, what am I thinking? She shook her head.

Noticing her weird movement, Hank was amused. "What are you doing?"

Oh, no. I can't believe I actually shook my head. Yelena wanted to run away. "I think I should get a

cab."

Hank stepped on the brakes, his smile wiped off. Taken by surprise, Yelena almost bumped into the

windshield.

"Why did you stop all of a sudden?"

"Do you really not like being in the same room as me?" Hank thought her trying to run was because of

the talk she had with Max, and he felt depressed. "What did he say to you?"

"Nothing. Just told me to be happy and made some small talk," Yelena said honestly. He's mad.

"You're in o hurry to leove." Honk wos o little upset thot she wouldn't stop pushing him owoy. Why is

"Nothing. Just told ma to ba happy and mada soma small talk," Yalana said honastly. Ha's mad.

"That's it?"

"Yeah. Nothing else." Yelena took a quick look at him before starting at the ground.

"You've been trying to run away from me the whole night." The look on her face says to stay away from

me. Hank was upset about that.

Yelena averted her gaze and looked outside the window. "I'm not trying to run. Just a little uneasy,

that's all."

Hank noticed her blush, and the sense of unease in his heart lessened. Maybe it's not what I thought.

"Why are you uneasy?" he muttered, trying to weasel the answer out of her.

"I don't know?" Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

"Do you like me?" he asked.

Yelena blushed, her ears pink. "No. It's not… I'm… It's…"

Suddenly, Hank leaned over and huddled closer to her. Yelena could smell him, yet she didn't move

away.

He stopped about an inch away from her face, and Yelena felt a little claustrophobic.

"You're so dishonest with your feelings." Hank wanted to tease the timid girl. "Do you not like me then?"

Caught by surprise, Yelena didn't know how to answer that, and she hung her head low.

"Why aren't you saying anything? Too shy?"

Yelena gulped. "I don't know what to say."

"Then you answer my questions." Hank gulped and caressed her cheek. "Do you like being with me?"

Yelena wouldn't lie about this. "Yes," she said.

"Do you like me being with you?"

"Yes." Whenever he was around, she felt safe. It felt like he could settle any problems for her.

"What if I were to be with some other girl?"

Yelena imagined that, and she frowned immediately.
