Chapter 466: Chapter 465: For the Rest of Our Lives

Nathan Foster listened to South Grant refusing, and as he reached out to brush aside her bangs, South Grant opened the car door and jumped out of the SUV.

Nathan Foster then also opened the car door and got out, he walked around the front of the vehicle to stand beside South Grant.

"That day, I said that to understand your other personality, I kept you by my side. You were angry with me about this, and rightly so. Your anger proves you care, yet at the time I didn’t understand, and I lashed out at you, even kissed you later without your consent."

South Grant looked up at this man, today’s moonlight was the same as that day’s—equally bright and pure.

Nathan Foster’s voice was gentle and low, deep yet pleasant.

Like the strings of a cello, its tone enchanting.

If before, South Grant never thought Nathan Foster would ever apologize to someone, yet at this moment she truly heard it—Nathan Foster was apologizing to her for what happened that day.

South Grant felt this was somewhat unreal, was this Nathan Foster? The tyrant who was domineering and unreasonable, dictatorial and autocratic, was he apologizing to her?

Nathan Foster saw South Grant gazing at him, with some surprise in her eyes.

That kind of bewilderment, as if she couldn’t believe he would apologize to her.

Nathan Foster couldn’t help thinking in his heart, perhaps previously he had left too strong an impression on her.

Vincent’s words were correct, since they chose to be together, theirs should be a relationship of mutual respect, no one is obligated to follow another’s orders for a lifetime.

Blind compliance is not love, it’s a subordinate relationship.

In this relationship, the first thing he should learn is respect.

"I didn’t finish what I said that day, taking you to that Cactus Forest because you once asked me what I was hiding from you. I’m telling you now, all my investigations are related to that Cactus Forest and it’s not about the treasure, but my father’s cause of death back then.

At first, when you took the USB drive, knowing you had it, I thought—anyone who knows about this either dies or stays by my side forever.

Later, your other personality was hostile to me, giving me more reason to keep you. This was the initial intent, do you remember that term you once mentioned? That is, love after long-term companionship.

Matters of the heart are beyond anyone’s control, faced with a kind, optimistic, brave, and strong you, I have no reason not to be moved.

Gradually, the initial excuse to keep you was so flimsy, because I realized that even if all the mysteries were solved, I no longer wish to let you go."

South Grant stared at Nathan Foster blankly, suddenly realizing he was confessing.

Unlike the previous confession when he kept her by his side, saying just "I’ve taken a liking to you."

His eyes were like the dazzling and affectionate stars in the sky at the moment.

His voice was deep and full of emotion.

His expression carried tenderness with seriousness, turning his spoken words into a kind of vow.

Strangely, South Grant’s parched heart, at this moment, felt like it was being warmed by a stream of warmth, flowing into the heart.

"I was never interested in the treasure, only wanted to uncover everything back then. The reason to question you about what you were hiding wasn’t curiosity about your secrets but to find out what happened to you to form that personality.

Only by knowing and understanding can I help you defeat her, regardless of whether the present you is the primary personality or another, for the rest of my life, I hope to keep you."
