Chapter 1786 Accept The Inevitable
Dennis knew that the Maddox Anna spoke of was the man from earlier. When Vinson was brought over, Dennis already knew the reason for it.
Thus, Anna’s words elicited a silent nod from him. Upon receiving his agreement, Anna turned to leave. I’ll make Maddox regret his decision and come crawling back to me.
No sooner had Anna begun to walk away than the anxious Dennis grabbed her arm. Turning around, Anna shot him a cold glare.
Dennis reacted by swiftly releasing his grip. Gathering his courage, he looked at her and asked, “Do you want to see a movie together tonight? There’s a new one—”
“I’m busy!” Anna cut him off before turning around to leave. Dennis, standing still, watched her leaving silhouette as a sense of conviction formed underneath his expressionless face.
The truth was that he loved Anna.
Without realizing it, he would subconsciously focus all his attention on her.
In spite of her cold and haughty attitude toward him, he actually liked the brazen way she behaved.
Therefore, in order to make her happy over the past few years, he would always send some beautiful woman Micah’s way to distract the latter from his love for Abigail.
Nonetheless, she still hated him and would scowl at him every time they met. Whenever she spoke to him, her tone would never fail to sound frosty.
It wasn’t until Anna had disappeared from sight that he returned to the plantation to see Vinson.
“If you don’t want to suffer anymore, you should submit to Ms. Anna. I’m sure she’ll forgive you,” Dennis suggested with a grim voice as he stared at the sweat-drenched Vinson.
However, Vinson furrowed his brows at Dennis.
Is he an idiot? Isn’t he in love with Anna? Why would he ask me to submit when he knows her designs upon me?
“Considering that you have the honor of Ms. Anna’s affection, it would be better for you to accept it willingly than having your hand forced,” Dennis responded coldly when he saw how Vinson was frowning at him.
If it wasn’t for trying to make Anna happy, he definitely wouldn’t have come to see Vinson. After all, no man could bear to see the woman he loved get intimate with another man, let alone accept that it was inevitable.
Narrowing his eyes at Dennis, Vinson calmly remarked, “If you like her, you should fight for her instead of offering her up to another man.”
The look in Dennis’ eyes drastically changed when he was stunned by the fact that Vinson had seen through him.
“H-How did you know?”
All this while, he had hidden his feelings for Anna carefully. No one ever noticed it. How did he find out?
“Because that’s how I look at my lover,” Vinson plainly replied before staring at Dennis. “Can you really accept pushing her into the arms of another man?”
Dennis shot Vinson a glance.
Of course I can’t, but what choice do I have? Anna hates me! My status doesn’t make me worthy enough for her. All I can do is love and care for her behind the scenes. As long as she’s happy, I’m willing to do anything.
“You don’t understand! All that matters is that she’s happy.” Glaring at Vinson, he added, “Also, how dare you reject her? You should instead feel honored that she fancies you.”
I don’t need such an honor! Vinson was filled with exasperation.
“You should be the one bringing her happiness. No other man can love her the way you do.”
