Chapter 965 - A Little Force Is Necessary

The reason is not enough?!

At this moment, Merry couldn't understand the deep meaning of Chris' words.

She furrowed her brows and pondered for a long time, then finally dropped her shoulders and sat down beside Chris with her head lowered. "In that case, what kind of reason do you think is sufficient!"

Chris looked at the little girl's sad appearance. He sighed silently, bent his legs on the sofa, and faced Merry at the side. "Is it difficult to answer this question? Merry, you just don't want me to get married, or is it because you have other ideas?"

Merry turned her head with flushed cheeks. Her eyes melted when she saw Chris' face, her gaze was very soft and deep as she suddenly muttered. "I like you, Chris, so you can't get married..."'

Chris' breath stopped after hearing this.

For a moment, he felt like fireworks were going off in his mind.

Chris bent over the sofa beside Merry with one hand, and slowly leaned over and approached her cheek. His voice was a little hoarse as he said, "Hey, say it again!"

Merry, who was drunk, repeated obediently. "I like you…."

Before those words ended, Chris' handsome face pressed against the little girl's forehead.

He held Merry's cheek with one hand, slowly closed his eyes and breathed steadily, waiting for the words for a very long time.

At this time, the little girl shook her head subconsciously, rubbing her forehead with the man's, her little mouth still moving. "Brother, can you not marry..."

After speaking, her head sank and slid onto Chris' shoulder, falling asleep.

Chris was lulled. "..."

He sighed helplessly, then glanced at the bottle of Baileys, looking disgusted. 

Next time...don't let this girl drink again!

Maybe not with this one, but she can still try...cocktails!

The alcohol is low and maybe it can help her tell the truth after drinking!

Then, Chris led Merry to the master bedroom.

When he laid her on the bed, the little girl was still muttering something.

He didn't listen to her, and just covered her with the blanket. The man then sat by the bed while staring at her face for a while.

Of course, there was nothing he could do anymore.

...

The next day, Merry woke up and opened her eyes, seeing a strange ceiling above her head, looking dumbfounded.

She sat vacantly, raised her hand and slapped herself lightly. Her gaze then looked at the stuffed bunny in the window cavity, and then remembered that this was Chris' master bedroom.

How come she is here!

Merry suddenly remembered that she seemed drunk last night.

Then she talked a lot with Chris, did she speak her mind?

The little girl was so annoyed, she suspected that the Baileys wine was the main culprit!

Merry lifted the blanket and ran out the door in slippers. She was eager to find Chris to see if the man found anything out of the ordinary!

She opened the door and rushed out, but in the next second, she jumped into Chris' arms unexpectedly.

Due to her fast movement, Chris was forced to take a few steps back.

"Why are you rushing this early?" Chris frowned when he caught her silhouette and stretched.

At this time, Merry staggered, looked at Chris, and said weakly, "Brother, was I drunk last night, right…?"

Chris saw her expression jokingly then raised an eyebrow. "Did you forget?"

"Huh?" The little girl seemed to see the joke in his eyes, and began to restrain herself in an anxious tone. "I… I think I was drunk. Brother, I didn't say anything I shouldn't have said, right? If I said it, don't take it seriously, I often talked nonsense when I drank too much!"

Chris' smiling cheeks immediately sank!

Was she trying to say that her confession last night was just… bullshit?

Chris narrowed his eyes, seeing the little girl in front of him denying her own words made him turn and leave.

He felt annoyed!

Admitting to love him, is it really that hard?!

Merry didn't know why, but seeing Chris who suddenly turned and left, she panicked. "Brother, where are you going?"

"Coming dow to eat!"

Chris threw a few words into the air without looking back at her. In the blink of an eye he was already down the stairs.

Merry was standing flustered in the corridor, so... Did she say anything strange last night?!

... 

It took about five minutes before Merry slowly came in and sat down at the dining table.

She looked around hastily, and suddenly saw last night's pizza box in the trash can in the corner.

Merry sat across from Chris without saying a word, scratching her head for a while.

Looking at Chris shifting the glass of milk in front of her with a cold face, the little girl said again with a crumpled face. "Brother, last night..."

"What do you want to ask?" A piece of fried egg was placed on her plate, and the man's expression was very deep.

Merry swallowed her saliva, then said straight to the point, "Last night, I didn't say anything to you, right?"

Chris looked at her blankly, then his words shocked the world. "Yeah, you said you liked me!"

Merry suddenly turned the cup of milk in her hand, her face paled and panicked.

Oh no!

She really confessed her feelings after drinking!

No wonder her brother's face was so ugly this morning, did he start to hate her?!

Chris doesn't understand the worries that Merry felt. He looked at her deeply and ignored the milk spilling on the table. "What are you so afraid of?"

The corners of Merry's mouth trembled, and her little hand was still unmoving even after she spilled the milk. "Brother, I only said it because I was drunk, can you not take it seriously? I..."

At this moment, Chris realized something was wrong.

Why is this girl so scared?

Chris put the spoon in his hand, took some tissues and wiped them on the table at random movements, then waved to Merry. "Come here!"

Merry bit her mouth and hesitated, she was afraid she would be scolded!

Chris sharply caught the horrified look of the little girl, and stood still for three seconds.

After seeing this, Merry also stood up. "I… I'm going now!"

She thought that Chris was going to kick her out, and she felt uncomfortable!

Sure enough, some emotions that the world didn't accept shouldn't be said.

Merry slumped and turned around, but only after she moved one step did Chris catch her wrist.

Merry didn't dare turn around or look into his eyes.

Her head was down like a chicken, embarrassed and confused.

When Chris sat back down, he pulled her arm and took the girl into his arms.

Merry used to sit on top of Chris a lot, but now she was in a different mood. She immediately wanted to stand up, afraid she would bother him again.

At this time, Chris sighed, and seeing the panic in the little girl's eyes, he asked in a deep voice. "Are you afraid of me?"

Merry nodded, then shook her head, staring at him blankly, not knowing how to answer.

She wasn't afraid of her brother, but she was afraid that he would hate her.

Seeing that she refused to speak, Chris pinched her. "Do you feel good enough now?"

This time, the little girl answered honestly, "Yeah..."

"Then tell me right now, whether what you said last night was true or a lie. Merry, I want to hear the truth from you, if you are lying, then don't blame me..."

Chris didn't say anything, but his last few words were powerful.

In order to force this girl to tell the truth, it is necessary to coerce and lure her!
