Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 2474

Olivia stood still in shock. Tears rolled silently from her eyes as she stared blankly at Skylar, completely at a loss for a reaction.

She understood every word he'd said, but somehow, her brain refused to process what they meant. Did he mean what she thought he implied?

"A-Are you saying that just to make me feel better?" Was he only saying it because she'd been crying too hard?

To her surprise, Skylar didn't flinch. Instead, he answered with a perfectly straight face, "I'd never do that."

He never knew how to say things or lie just to make others feel better.

Despite how serious he sounded, Olivia still refused to believe him. "A-Are you just showing pity!"

The word pity came out too sharp, and her tears fell harder. Her eyes were already red from crying, and now, they held a spark of fury too.

As Olivia Bailes, she never needed someone else's pity to be in a relationship. She might have confessed first, but that was only because she was honest about her feelings, not because she wanted to pressure him into agreeing.

What was that supposed to mean? Would he say yes if just any woman cried in front of him and demanded to date him?

That was just too soft and gutless!

Skylar had no idea he was suddenly being labeled as a gutless guy. If he did, he probably would have laughed in disbelief.

But facing Olivia, who glared at him with red eyes full of tears and righteous anger, he couldn't bring himself to feel the slightest bit annoyed.

His gaze dropped to her falling tears as his fingers clenched and relaxed repeatedly at his sides. Finally, he couldn't hold back from reaching out and gently brushing a tear from beneath her eye.

Its warmth stung his fingertips just like before.

To Olivia, his touch felt like a feather gliding across her cheek. It felt so soft and light that she could barely sense it.

But her tears, which had been flowing uncontrollably, stopped at his unexpected gesture.
