Chapter 501

It was extremely silent in the ward, except for some light dripping from the infusion tube.

Duke smelled the fresh scent of Adina’s hair, and he stared at her side profile.

The soft light of the night cast a shadow on her face, which filled her indifferent countenance with
gentleness, and his face was reflected in her black eyes.

He suddenly lost his cool.

He turned sideways to kiss her cheek, but there were at least ten centimeters between them.

Even though he tried to inch forward slightly, his head was injured, and he felt dizzy. Hence, he was
unable to move at all.

Duke felt annoyed as he moved his hand. His left hand was injured, but he was not receiving an
infusion through it, so he could still move it.

He raised his left hand slowly and grabbed Adina’s sweet smelling hair.

Adina was stunned.She turned to the side and caught Duke’s profound eyes.

Although this man was bedridden, his eyes were also full of ferocity and intensity.

After she took a step back, she realized that her hair was still in the man’s grip. “You’re grabbing my
hair,” Adina said softly.

Duke released his hand after some thought.



He stared at her, and his throat suddenly became dry. Perhaps it was because the night was too dark,
or the room was too quiet, or the emotions in his chest could no

Most importantly, he did not want to wait any longer.

The fear that he felt tonight had been too real.

“Addy.”

Duke’s voice was hoarse.

He raised his hand again and held Adina’s cold fingers.

“I prepared many flowers in the International Plaza today. If this accident hadn’t happened, I would’ve
already confessed to you. But it’s still not too late now.” The man’s voice hit Adina’s heart like an
electric current.

She was completely shaken.

He had already confessed to her when he got drunk last night. Was he going to do it again? “Addy, our
relationship should have started five years ago. If I had woken up ten minutes earlier that day, we
wouldn’t have lost those five years.

“Addy, I’ve never been more sure of anything than the fact that I like you. I love you.”

Adina’s ears were burning.

She pursed her lips and purposely scoffed. “I’ve heard those words before.”

Duke was taken aback, and he soon became anxious.” Addy, I’m being sincere. I swear that I didn’t
copy my lines from the Internet.”



He did use the comments of netizens as a reference for his confession , but those words had been
tangled in his brain for countless days and nights. He had wanted to say them to her so badly for a long
time. How could someone else have possibly said the same thing as him?

Adina took the opportunity to move out of his grip before she pursed her lips and said, “You were drunk
last night, and you said the exact same thing to me.”

Duke was petrified.

He had prepared the script for his confession for many days, but he blurted it out after he got drunk?

He had confessed to her the night before?

When Adina saw the way he looked, she suddenly chuckled.
