Chapter 653: Take Care
"So, are you completely prepared for the wedding postponement?" Erasmi inquired as Autumn finally emerged from the hospital. It had been quite the ordeal convincing her to step away and take a much-needed break, but Erasmi had succeeded in persuading her. Given the circumstances, it was essential to discuss their plans in detail, after all, it was a surprise wedding.
Gabe nodded," Yep. Its not like I can marry her when on a wheelchair. I’ll have to plan the surprise for some other day."
Erasmi sighed and nodded," Of course. And I think it might actually be better this way..."
"Why?"
"I think you need to confess a lot of things to Autumn before you marry her again."
Gabe frowned,’ Like?"
"Are you really trying to act smart Gabe Frost? Everyone but Autumn knows that you are in love with her. And the only reason she doesn’t know this is because you have not confessed to her. So, I suggest, before you show your love to her and bury her in your affections, letting her know would be a good start."
Gabe chuckled at that, not bothering to argue. It was humbling, even a bit disheartening, to realize how blind he had been to his own feelings. But he had come to understand that the worry and care he felt for Autumn, the deep sense of calm he experienced when he was with her, and the restless yearning when she wasn’t around were all signs of genuine love. It was different from what he had felt for Arabelle—this love was richer, more intense, and undeniably more powerful. It was a revelation that had taken him some time to accept, but now it was as clear as day.
"You might be right." He acknowledged, already thinking on how he was going to tell her. Now that he had accepted it, he wanted her to know as soon as possible. There was no reason to let her keep thinking that her love was unrequited.
