Still Wanna Escape After Stealing My Heart? novel Chapter 2310

"It's just that I am not from this city. I had just come to South City for work not too long ago. I originally wanted to save up and buy a house, but I lost my job again before I managed to save enough. I am a person who doesn't have a house and doesn't have much savings as well. If you were to be with me, I'm afraid that you would suffer," James said with difficulty.

Gloria smiled. "Hey, what are you talking about, James! Could this small house of mine not be enough for both of us to live in, or do you dislike my house for being too remote and too old?"

"Neither. My house back where I came from is even older than this one and I have never disliked it," James said.

"Then what is it that is making you hesitate?" "I don't want to and I can’t be dependent on a woman. I want to make money, provide for you, and let you stay in a big house.

This is what a man should do," James said sincerely.

"I support you!" Gloria immediately said.

Hearing Gloria saying that, James secretly was more or less a little disappointed. He originally thought that since Gloria was so fond of him, she certainly would say that she would take out a big sum of money to buy a house for the both of them or something. He never expected that Gloria would say that instead. However, James did not let any sign of disappointment show on his face at all. He did his best to maintain a gentlemanly smile.

Gloria's smile also became even more gentle. "But, James, I support you for doing so because you're a manly person with strong principles. I like people who are a man of principle like you. If a man had no principle, I wouldn't have liked him. However, I am not young anymore. My child is also already married. There's not much of a use for me to keep my money. Since I have found the man I love the most: n my life, I certainly have to take out all of my money to support the man I love.

However, James, you also know that I don't have much money. I only have half a million to my name, and that was what I've saved up in the past few years. How about both of us save money together and buy a house together?"

"I actually..." Gloria smiled shyly. "I actually quite like listening to some sweet talks. Do you know why? It's because the first half of my life has been too tough. It was all bitter and there was not even a little bit of sweetness at all. At first, I didn't like you to sweet-talk me because I don't know you. However, now that I've known you, I know that you're a good person. I was just thinking that if we can live our lives with a little more sweetness, why should we restrain ourselves? I am already more than fifty years old. How many years do I still have ahead of me? I don't want to restrain myself too much. I just wanted to live a little freely. Well, yesterday..."

Gloria hung her head and her voice got very soft. "I wanted to let you spend the night yesterday because of that. Because we're no longer young people anymore. We have to live every day of our lives with happiness and sweetness. What do you think?"

What she said was already very forward and very obvious. Even the most stupid

person could tell what was Gloria's thoughts and attitude. James felt that he had guessed it absolutely right. Gloria was more impatient than him. In the end, the old woman still could not stand being lonely!
