Estelle shook her head decisively. “I can't.” Lambert was urgent, his voice edged
with desperation. “I blurted out my feelings that day; it was hasty and insincere.
Please, let me say it again properly. I care about you, Estelle, from Stella to
Estelle, it's always been you. I'll talk to my father and call off the arranged
marriage. I only want you as my wife!” He pledged fervently, “I've lived recklessly
in the past, and unfortunately, you've seen that side of me. I'm sorry and filled
with regret, but I promise, it won't happen again. I'll be loyal to you, and I'll give
you everything I have. I hope you'll stay and spend your life with me.” Estelle
frowned. “I'm in love with someone
else, Lambert. I thought I made that clear!” “Is it Alvis?” “Yes, it is!” If it had been
anyone else, Lambert might have tried to win her over, but with Alvis, he felt a
sense of defeat. “Have you known him for a long time?” Estelle smiled. “For quite
a while, yes. And later, I married him!” Lambert stared at her in shock. “You're
already married?” “Yes,” Estelle confirmed. “So, you can let go of your obsession
now.” Lambert frowned deeply, his gaze clinging to Estelle, eyes filled with
sorrow. “Life’s so unfair to me!” Since that peacekeeping mission, he'd put her on
a pedestal, always following her shadow. When he thought she'd “died,” his grief
and despair sank him into a deep depression. It wasn't until he'd built a memorial
chapel and enshrined her name there, visiting daily to talk to her, that he began
to recover from his pain. Now, learning she was alive and thinking there was
hope again, he found out she had someone else, and they were already married.
And that man, so strong, so in love with her, didn't even leave Lambert with a
chance to compete. It felt like he was a joke! “Born into the Brennan family, an
heir and the future head of the family, and you're still complaining about life being
unfair? Ridiculous” Estelle joked lightly. “Your knowledge of me is limited to our
time in that peacekeeping effort. It was your first time in such a conflict, and your
feelings towards me were more like a rookie’s admiration, not necessarily
romantic.” Lambert gave a self-deprecating smile. “So what about now? Why do I
find myself drawn to you again?” Estelle teased, “Clearly, your affections aren't
very singular!” Lambert couldn't help but laugh. “Not at all, I've fallen twice, both
times for you.” Estelle was at a loss for words. Visit Dramanovels.com to read full

shrugged, about to say something more when his phone rang. He picked it up.
“What's up?” The voice of his old butler came through, laced with urgency, “Mr.
Lambert, Miss Linda has arrived!” Lambert frowned impatiently. “What does she
want?” Visit Dramanovels.com to read full content. (Image)
