Chapter 264

Surprised by my decision, Ronan looked at me, perplexed and with an anxious expression.

Perhaps, he thought that Michael would return to my side because of my pregnancy. After all, that was
what a reasonable person would do.

“It's already over between me and Michael. I've decided to raise my child alone. Ronan, if you still see
me as your friend, I hope that you won't spill the beans to Michael.”

I stared at Ronan, pleading to him with my eyes. Although I wished to be together with Michael, I knew
that he never had me in his heart. Even if I had his child, I would rather he choose to be with me
because he genuinely loved me.

Ronan gazed at me for a long time, hesitating to say something. In the end, he merely nodded in
agreement.

With his promise to keep the secret, I felt much relieved. Otherwise, judging from his personality, I was
afraid that he would confront Michael immediately and tell him about my pregnancy.

“Thank you.”

I thanked Ronan sincerely. Ever since we first met each other, he had helped me significantly. As I
know that my relationship with Michael had harmed him, I felt very guilty toward him.

“You've decided that you'll never be together with him ever?” Raising his head and meeting my gaze,
he asked in a surprisingly solemn tone.



Although the thought of never being together with Michael saddened me, I nodded my head resolutely.
After all, I could not change the dictates of fate.

When Ronan heard that, he cast his gaze downward. I did not know what he was thinking about, but
there was a serious look on his face that I had never seen before.

He stood up and walked toward me.

When he approached me, I started to feel flustered. I raised my head and gazed at him, not knowing
what he was going to do. Is he going mad again?

“What are you doing, Ronan?”

I looked at him nervously.

Still silent, he stared at me with a serious look before going down on one knee.

When I saw his actions, I jumped up in shock. “What are you doing?”

I was genuinely startled by him. He stared at me intently and said, “Anna, you know very clearly how I
feel about you. Since you won't be together with Michael, let me raise your child together with you. I'll
definitely dote on your child like my own.”

Standing paralyzed to the spot, I looked at him in utter shock. Is this guy mad? Is he saying that he
wants to be together with me?

Despite knowing that my baby is Michael's, and the fact that Michael is his cousin, he still wanted to be



with me? How ridiculous!

“Ronan, this joke isn't funny at all. Stand up now!”

Panicking, I gazed at him and tried my best to treat his words as a joke. I simply could not accept what
he had just said.

“Do I look like I'm joking? I'm being very serious here!”

Seeing that I was smiling awkwardly at him, Ronan looked at me with a frown. He sounded weirdly
serious.

My heart pounded. Meeting his solemn gaze, I did not know what to say. My mind had turned
completely blank as if all my thoughts had been thrown out the window.

Ronan's actions were beyond my expectations. The thought that he would make such a decision had
never crossed my mind.

“Get up, Ronan. You're making me feel uncomfortable.”

I did not know how to answer him. Furthermore, as he was still kneeling in front of me, I felt even more
unsettled.

Frowning, Ronan stood up and sat opposite me.

He stared into my eyes, evidently looking forward to my answer.



I felt uneasy by his intent stare. Averting my gaze, I deliberated about how I should reject him. After all,
it was impossible that I would get together with him.

“I know that you're doing this out of pity for me and my baby, but I want to say that I am capable
enough to take care of my child.”

Although I knew about Ronan's feelings for me, I had no choice but to deliberately distort the truth and
say that he was pitying me. I simply had no idea how to respond to his question.

“It's not pity I feel for you. It's love. Regardless of who your baby belongs to, I don't mind. Anna, don't
you know about my feelings for you?”

Before I could finish my sentence, Ronan became agitated. An increasingly anxious look crept into his
eyes.

Despite all the excuses that I had prepared, I could not utter a single one of them. Ronan was putting
me in a tight spot.

I knew that I wanted to reject him, but I did not wish to hurt him. Although I wanted to turn him down
tactfully, I did not expect him to be so stubborn.

“But you know who I like. I can't be together with someone that I don't like, so I'm sorry that I have to
refuse you.”

I never wanted to hurt Ronan, but I had no choice. Only by showing my determination would he give up
completely. Otherwise, considering his personality, he would stick to his decision as long as there was



a glimmer of hope.

Probably because he did not expect me to give such a cruel response, Ronan stiffened. An agonizing
look crept into his eyes.

Perhaps, he thought that if he appeared at my most tormenting and helpless moment, I would fall in
love with him. However, I was not that weak. No matter what, I would never be together with someone I
did not like.

“But you said that both of you will never be together. So why aren't you willing to give me a chance to
take care of you and your child? Do you not trust me?”

Ronan stared at me, still reluctant to give up. I could sense how hurt he was from his indignant tone.

“It's not because I don't trust you. If I agree, it'll be really unfair to you. I can't possibly do that,” I
explained solemnly as I gazed into his eyes.

It did not matter whether I liked Ronan or not. Even if I liked him, I could not agree to his request. It
would be unfair to him if he had to take responsibility despite me being pregnant with someone else's
child.

“I don't need it to be fair. As long as I can be together with you, I'll be happy no matter what!” blurted
Ronan as he suddenly grabbed my hand.

Hearing that I was being considerate of him, he beamed happily.
