Chapter 785: Prove it.
"Frank. Do you really love me? Or were you just keeping me because you feel responsible for me?"
Dragon blanked momentarily at the questions she threw at him. Normally, he wouldn’t hesitate to lie right in front of her face. But now, he already had his back turned to her, and yet, he couldn’t answer quickly.
Does he love her?
Or does he only feel responsible for her?
Why would he feel responsible for her? Why? Because she got into an accident which led to years of a coma? He knew very well it wasn’t an accident, and her memories were purposely erased. Therefore, he wouldn’t have the need to feel responsible for her, since everything was planned from the beginning. However, that particular question somehow caught him off guard.
Dragon didn’t know what to answer. The question never crossed him.
"Please..." Hera’s muffled voice snapped him back to reality. "Say something."
Dragon quietly reached for the hands locked on his abdomen. He slowly turned around, gazing down a little, only to see a tear rolling down her cheek at that very moment.
"I’m not angry," he expressed under his breath. "I’m disappointed. After all these years, I was expecting that you’d trust me more than anyone else. That I’d be the first person you’d look for if something bad happened. But alas, not only did you not look for me, but you dare hide it from me."
