Carrie’s chin lifted slightly, and the seemingly endless tears in her eyes welled up again.
Harrison held her hand, “You don’t need to put yourself in that situation, just knowing is enough.”
“If I don’t put myself in that situation, how can I forgive you for really having another person in your heart and even almost having a child with her?”
Harrison:”…”
After a long time, Carrie rubbed her eyes, “Conventional thinking and reason tell me to hate her, but I can’t do it.”
Harrison was silent for a moment, “I’m sorry for putting you in such a difficult situation.”
“But I’m grateful for your honesty, which has dispelled the doubts I once had.” Saying this, she suddenly stood up and threw herself into Harrison’s arms, “This is so hard for you. You should’ve told me earlier!”
Her emotions finally broke down.
Harrison patted her back for a long time until she gradually calmed down.
He asked again, “Why did you believe such an incredible story so easily? Isn’t this the most ridiculous lie ever told by the worst man in history?”
Carrie broke free, crying and laughing as she hammered him.
“Go away, if you were a scumbag, would you have rejected Avril? Besides, before you even started talking, I had made up my mind to believe whatever you said, no matter what.”
Harrison grinned at her, “Thank you.”
Carrie rubbed her eyes and patted Harrison’s shoulder, “Don’t thank me, you’re the one who’s been through a lot.”
“It’s okay, there’s not much I can do, I just have to keep going.”
Carrie listened to his reluctant tone and thought about how he had faced her guiltily with a thief’s conscience for more than half a year, forcing a smile, even facing her scorching, burning affection.
He was actually quite pitiful.
He wasn’t afraid of death, but he couldn’t bear the guilt of deceiving himself.
He s such a fool, clearly loving me so much.
Carrie suddenly leaned forward and grabbed Harrison’s hand again, “I don’t know what kind of strangers we were in the timeline of your first and second experiences. That, after all, was a future I never experienced. To me, it doesn’t exist.”
“I don’t care about a future that never happened; I only care about the present. I know that I could never have become who I am now in just half a year without you. I’ve walked a lifetime’s path in just six months. I should be thanking you instead.”
Harrison looked into her eyes, “Don’t say that.”
“I have one more question for you.”
“What?”
“Did I like you before?”
Haven’t I said it before? We didn’t know each other well.”
“What do you think? Do I like you now because of your talent or something else?” Carrie emphasized the word “talent.”
“No.”
Carrie: “Everyone is a complete person, and so-called talent is just a part Whether your talent is real or fake, it’s still just part of you. If I really only liked you because of your creative abilities, I’d be no different from those women who throw themselves at you when they want to invite you to write songs.” Harrison hesitated, can an only child be so good at winning people over?
Am I… am I so outstanding?
“Guess when I first discovered I might like you.”
“When I saved you on my motorcycle?”
You got it right. This has nothing to do with whether you plagiarized songs right?”
“Yes.”
“The amazing athletic ability you showed when you rescued Rainer was even more intense than when you saved me. Was it from your future military training?”
“Yes.”
“When you learned those skills, was the training difficult?”
“It was very difficult at first.”
“How about later?”
“Later, I became too strong, and the people who trained me and trained with me were the ones who struggled, not myself.”
“You see, you weren’t so outstanding at first, and even wanted to hide like an ostrich. But later, you changed. You became far from ordinary. I was attracted to you because of this change. But no matter when, you are still you. Perhaps this is your true nature, it’s just that you didn’t have the opportunity to show it in the previous timeline.”
Harrison thought about it, “You’re right.”
“Then, of course, you deserve me.”Harrison Clark: “Uh…”
“Today, I’ve had quite a shock. For safety’s sake, you should keep playing the future’s song for me; I want to see where my limits are. Also, I need to put some pressure on myself – you should keep waiting for me. Once I finish composing this song, we can get married. How does that sound?”
Harrison Clark thought for a few seconds and said, “Okay.”
Today, he had been honest with Carrie Thomas, but nothing had changed except that he felt much lighter in his heart.
Carrie Thomas truly was an exceptional woman – not to be measured by conventional standards.
He laughed heartily, looking somewhat silly.
Seeing Harrison Clark’s completely relaxed appearance, Carrie Thomas also laughed.
If it was really as you said, and that it was my past coldness that caused us to pass by each other, it’s my problem, not yours.
Life is like this.
Many women are always waiting for their true love, but they never come.
By the time, they are over thirty, they have no choice but to go on arranged blind dates, numbly get married and have children, or choose to live alone and complain about the unfairness of fate.
In fact, they have already met someone at a certain time – they just missed the chance.
I once missed you, just like Fatty and Samantha missed each other.
But not this time.
Harrison Clark, you are always changing.
Your change makes me curious about you, makes me want to try to understand the meaning behind your every word. The more I try to understand, the more I can’t help myself.
Now, I like you even more.
She stared blankly at Harrison Clark, watching his figure stretch in the morning sunlight.
She took a deep breath and thought to herself.
If you want to drive away the darkness against the light, then you are destined to bear a lot of suffering alone.
Your storytelling tone is plain, but you must have once wandered staggering in loneliness, screaming silently in despair.
You would also be anxious that no one in the world could understand you, so you always use a hypocritical smile to cover it up.
But from now on, I choose to trust you, and you must trust me, too.
I will no longer let you stand alone at the end of civilization.
I will try to understand all your motives.
If burning my life can become your strength,
How can such a great mission be accomplished without my contribution?
I have no regrets and will never retreat.
We will create more miracles in this era together.
Believe in us, and you must also believe in your future self.
While Carrie Thomas was in a daze, Harrison Clark stood up, stretched lazily, and said, “Alright, we haven’t slept all night. Let’s go get some rest.”
“Mm.”
Originally, the two planned to go straight home, but Avril Green, also with dark circles under her eyes, ran out of the back room and insisted on bringing them back. They were each settled in guest rooms.
Carrie Thomas slept until the afternoon. When she woke up, Harrison Clark, Ramer, Ward Owen, Julia Lambert, and Avril Green were already sitting together in the courtyard.
There was not a single servant or waiter from Homey Rose – all of them must have been sent home to avoid any trouble.
Awake? You should wash your face and eat something first. I have an announcement to make,” Harrison Clark said to her.
Carrie Thomas nodded.
Twenty minutes later, everyone finally gathered, and Harrison Clark stood up.
In the palm of his hand, he held a fist-sized stone.
“Now I am going to announce something. Before I do, let me just say that no matter how unbelievable my words may sound, you should not have any doubts. To prevent you from thinking I’m bragging, let me show you a little trick first.”
Having said that, he picked up the stone and suddenly clenched it with all his strength.
The stone cracked with
snap and then shattered, with dust flying all around..
