Elder Kinston's Exclusive Sweet Wife-Chapter 846 - 881: That’s Enough

"You—" Gemma gritted her teeth in anger.

"There are some things that we both know very well. I came to see you today just to tell you, don’t even think about harming my child. If anything happens to my child, I will tell Dorian everything from three years ago! And if anything happens to me, with Dorian’s temperament, he will definitely investigate to the end. Are you really confident you can deceive him?" Alice Conley’s words were straightforward, making Gemma’s face turn extremely unpleasant.

Gemma truly did not expect to be threatened by Alice Conley.

The woman in front of her was no longer the cautious college student she met three years ago, but a mother, a woman baring her teeth and claws to protect her child.

At this moment, Dorian Howards also returned hurriedly with the medicine, looking at the two women. The one with the unpleasant face was his own mother, while Alice Conley appeared smiling, as if nothing had happened.

"Mom, here’s your medicine," Dorian stepped forward and said.

Gemma took the medicine but didn’t take it right away. Instead, she stood up and gave Alice Conley a cold glance, "Miss Conley, I hope you’ll keep your word." With that, she left abruptly.

Dorian Howards asked, "What did you and my mom talk about exactly?"

"I just said I only want to safely give birth to this child, and I don’t really want to enter the Howards Family, so she can rest assured," Alice replied.

Upon hearing this, Dorian Howards frowned slightly, "Alice, I said I want to marry you... I’m not joking. Or maybe..." He paused, looking somewhat desolate and a bit self-mocking, "This has been in my mind all these days, only to be triggered in that situation."

Alice Conley suddenly didn’t know what to say. After a while, she said, "Dorian, actually, no matter why or when you want to marry me, I... I’m actually quite happy. That’s enough."

Yes, for her, that was indeed enough. At least he still had the thought of wanting to marry her.

As Alice said this, she stood up, ready to leave.

Dorian Howards quickly stopped her, "Alice, what do you mean by this? What do you mean ’that’s enough’?"

Alice Conley replied, "Dorian, do you believe that I love you? Do you believe that it’s not because of the child that I want to marry you?"

He hesitated, momentarily unsure how to respond.

Reason told him the best answer now was to say he believed her. However... he didn’t want to lie to her. Deep down, there was still a voice telling him, if not for the child, how could she possibly be willing to marry him?

Alice gently pulled away from Dorian’s hand and said, "Alright, you only want to marry me because Daxton and I seemed intimate. Maybe after you sleep on it, you won’t have this thought anymore. Daxton and I have nothing; he has someone else he likes. We are just friends."

After saying this, Alice lowered her eyes, turned around, and left. There was a bitter smile on her lips because he still didn’t believe she loved him. This was something she had caused herself, so she couldn’t blame him. If back then, it was his mother and the Howards Family that stood between her and him, now even her parents might not approve.

It seemed like the obstacles between her and him were only increasing.
