Harrison Clark: “This…”
Carrie Thomas: “Are you worried that I’ll hate you if I find out you’ve been using me?”
Harrison Clark nodded, “Yes.”
He really wanted to just disappear, or maybe find a rope and hang himself.
It was terrifying.
Did she know everything all along?
Had he been playing with fire by lying to her?
There truly were no easy opponents among those who had made history on their own.
He had unwittingly lost himself in the naivete and innocence she exuded, constantly exposing himself.
He had been seen through completely!
What did she want to do today, strip him naked?
Since she knew already, they had gotten married so many times in the previous timelines, this…
Harrison Clark immediately got the answer.
Carrie Thomas: “Actually, your worry is unnecessary. I like you, whether you like me or not.”
Harrison Clark: “Huh?”
“Didn’t I just say that true feelings can’t be conditional? Love isn’t an exchange. Whether you like me or not doesn’t affect me.”
Harrison Clark waved his hands continuously, “Hey, wait, aren’t you a believer in being single?”
Carrie Thomas nodded, “Yeah, because I originally thought I would never like anyone in my life. At the same time, I wouldn’t settle for someone I didn’t like, so I planned to be single for my entire life.”
Harrison Clark wanted to give her a thumbs-up.
Carrie Thomas continued, “Besides, you don’t dislike me completely, right? After all, I am attractive, have a beautiful singing voice, and I am deeply committed. And now that I’m so gentle with you, even the coldest heart would melt, right?”
Harrison’s face turned red, “Yes… there is some.”
“You just couldn’t overcome your sense of guilt, could you?”
Carrie Thomas nodded: “So, let’s be completely honest. That way you won’t have any guilt. Then you just need a little bit of liking to exchange for all of mine. I’ll be happy in my life. Even if it continues like this, I’ll be happy. I just hope you can be a little more at ease.”
“Of course, no matter what happens between us, I will complete everything I can do, and write the songs you want and the ones I want for myself. The reason I got angry when I said you looked down on me is right there.”
This was Carrie Thomas, who could understand everything yet lived such a simple life.
As Harrison Clark continued to hesitate, Carrie Thomas hooked her hand around his shoulder and shook it, “Besides, you’re really a troubling person who thinks too much. Living your life so painstakingly. However, that’s exactly the part of you that I fancy, do you understand? Isn’t it more comfortable now?”
Harrison Clark nodded, “It’s much better now.”
“So, being honest?”
“Honest. But I need to think about where to start.”
“Fine, I’ll wait for you to organize your words.”
At this moment, Rainer came over and greeted, “Harrison, we need to go back and rest. When are you guys leaving?”
Harrison Clark was about to reply when Carrie Thomas glared fiercely at Rainer, “We still have things to talk about! You guys go mind your own business!”
Rainer quickly retreated with a shrunken neck, feeling strange.
Unknowingly, it was already past ten o’clock, and there were things to do tomorrow. The crowd gradually dispersed, and even the waiters left after cleaning up the scene.
Mr. Louie stayed in the Homey Rose guest room to take care of Avril Green. Samantha had to go home as a well-born girl.
In the end, only a few people remained in Homey Rose: Avril Green, Bella Ross, Mr. Louie, and Ou Pangzi.
When most people had left, Harrison Clark and Carrie Thomas returned to the small table in the middle of the courtyard.
The table was still set with new snacks, nuts, and drinks, as well as a steaming cup of strong tea and fruit juice.
Harrison Clark picked up the teacup and used his Galactic Human brain to think for nearly half an hour before he slowly lowered his voice and began.
“My dreams are real, not just dreams.”
Carrie Thomas was amazed in her heart, but remained calm on the surface, saying, “Keep going, I’m listening, just don’t mind me. I’ll listen quietly.”
Harrison Clark nodded, “I saw the future, experienced the future… many times.”
From then on, he was the one talking and Carrie Thomas listening.
She tried her best to remain quiet, being a perfect listener.
Carrie Thomas almost covered her mouth in astonishment countless times when she heard the thrilling parts, worrying for him.
But again and again she heard that he really died on the battlefield, worry turned into reality, and her suspended heart landed strangely on the ground time after time.
She tried not to interrupt Harrison Clark’s story, but this long tale was truly grinding to listen to.
He talked for a full four hours, and the time reached three-thirty in the morning.
“That’s about it. That’s everything I’ve been carrying in my heart. At first, I thought it was a dream, but I brought back your songs, other people’s songs, and the ‘The Madman’s Conjectures Collection’ and the things the Summit Research Institute is working on. The future keeps changing, and I want to win for once.”
Harrison Clark folded his hands and looked at her calmly.
Carrie Thomas pondered for a long time, trying her best to digest everything Harrison Clark had told her.
After a while, she said, “Let’s start from the beginning when you copied my song.”
Harrison Clark: “Mhm, I have to apologize to you again. All the songs I created for you were originally yours. I also sold your songs to many people. The feeling in your heart that I was your kindred spirit was an illusion. It happened that way because the songs were originally yours, and you were easily touched by them.”
Carrie Thomas nodded, “Do you feel like you’re a shameless thief who has plagiarized everything, not as good as I hoped, and have wasted many of my lives? Right?”
