Chapter 2984: Chapter 174: You Never Loved Me (3)

So, what Harrison Lucas saw was Ben Lucas taking out the ring box and placing it on the table, opening it, but she didn’t continue to stay, missing the moment when Ben Lucas closed the ring box and put it away.

If that woman is Miss Darling, then all the scenarios Harrison Lucas imagined were misunderstandings.

So, all of this is just a story she made up?

A result of her uncontainable imagination?

Harrison Lucas couldn’t quite believe it; she hadn’t expected that everything she believed in was merely nothing.

So, she’s been misunderstanding the young master all along. Ben Lucas didn’t actually like another woman, nor was there any talk of a ’shield’.

Has he liked her all along?

Suddenly, Harrison Lucas recalled what Ben Lucas had just said, her face showing an overly surprised reaction.

She, slightly stunned, then looking at him in shock, with her small mouth slightly open, said: "You... you plan to propose to me?"

How can this be!

No, that’s not right!

Harrison Lucas suddenly thought of something, she shook her head, vehemently denying Ben Lucas’s words: "That’s not right, it can’t be like this.

Even if that woman is Miss Darling, even if that diamond ring was bought to propose to me, it’s all my misunderstanding, there’s no shield, I’ve overthought, we can’t be together!

You shouldn’t marry me, young master!"

What she meant was not that she couldn’t marry him, but that he shouldn’t marry her.

These two sentences sound similar at first but upon careful examination, they have entirely different meanings.

Ben Lucas, extremely perceptive, discerned the deeper meaning within them, narrowing his long eyes, his dark, deep eyes staring at Harrison Lucas, coldly saying: "Why not? What’s wrong with me that makes you distrust me?"

Yes, it’s distrust.

Ben Lucas finally saw through the entire series of reactions from Harrison Lucas.

Clearly, she distrusts him, losing the zeal she once had when looking at him.

Her eyes now are gray, no longer like before, when she would excitedly circle around him like a little dog wagging its tail.

Such a change in Harrison Lucas made Ben Lucas feel very uncomfortable.

The man’s face slightly darkened, showing a stern and solemn expression.

Harrison Lucas watched Ben Lucas’s serious expression, pressing her lips, though somewhat difficult to express, still deciding to lay everything out.

Let it be settled like this, clear everything up, not letting the two of them continue to be entangled.

Harrison Lucas tried to stay clear-headed and calm, using a slightly desolate tone to speak on the embarrassing topic: "I... I know young master doesn’t actually like me that much. You say you want to propose to me, to marry me, but it’s for other reasons. It’s not good for us, it’s not fair to you, so I want to leave, to avoid putting you in a difficult situation."

Ben Lucas’s dark eyebrows slightly furrowed, so this is the root of their distrust.

"What reason?" Ben Lucas restrained his emotions, asking in a cold, deep tone.

Harrison Lucas lifted her eyes to glance at him, seeing his cold and resolute face, hesitating slightly, saying: "To repay a debt."

"You mean, because you blocked that bullet for me in Triumph Mountain district, saving me, and in order to repay you so I got close to you?" Ben Lucas’s face remained stern and serious, but Harrison Lucas could see from his thin, tightly pressed lips, the hidden anger.

The young master seems to be angry...
