Chapter 1191: I Don"t Want Anything, Except for You (7) Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Her eyes were red now. Gritting her teeth, she looked at Chris with her exquisite face, and her usually delicate voice hardened determinedly as she said, "Tell him to stop the car. If not, I"ll jump!"
Chris looked at her. In a soft, coaxing voice, he cooed, "Annie, close the door. We can discuss everything else later."
Did Annie not know him well enough?
He probably thought she wouldn"t dare to let go.
Annie smiled, but it didn"t reach her eyes. "You"re thinking that I won"t do it, right? Alright, I"ll do it for you, then!"
She looked out of the car door. The car wasn"t going at a fast speed but it still looked scary.
She didn"t know what would happen after she jumped.
She had been afraid of pain since childhood. Moreover, her skin was soft and fragile, and the consequences of falling down would likely be terrible.
However, she didn"t have the time to mull things over.
After her speech, Annie held the sides of the door, took a deep breath, and throwing caution to the wind, prepared to jump.
Chris" expression turned dark. Swiftly, he grabbed her by the waist and pulled her back, and closed the door with a loud thud.
"Are you crazy!"
"Stop caring about me! Chris, you lied to me! You broke your promise! I"m disappointed in you!" Annie pounded on his chest, trying to get him to let her go.
"I"m more disappointed in you! You just tried to throw your life away for that Ye Sijue! How long have you known him for? You don"t even have half a brain!" Chris howled at her.
"That"s between him and me. What has it got to do with you!" Annie spoke in a measured voice as she glared at him.
Chris reminded her, "What has it got to do with me? Don"t forget that we"re about to be engaged."
Annie pursed her lips. She looked like she had finally come to a decision and met his eyes. "I"m sorry, but I can"t be engaged to you anymore. I"m… canceling the engagement and I"m willing to bear any consequences from it."
Ye Sijue had done so much for her and was even unafraid to die for her.
She would be useless if she couldn"t even cancel an engagement!
Moreover, everything that had happened the previous night made her recognize her emotions. She now clearly understood that she couldn"t lose Ye Sijue. If she couldn"t be together with him, she would spend the rest of her life as a zombie, never able to feel happiness again.
Xiaoxiao was right. Humans should be a little selfish and seek their own happiness instead of undermining themselves to accommodate others.
She decided to follow her heart.
Annie thought that Chris would be furious at her words, but he didn"t look angry.
Chris only sighed. His expression looked a little complicated, and she couldn"t read what he was thinking.
He looked at her and said, "Annie, Ye Sijue failed to protect you. He has lost all right to be by your side."
"What right do you have to say that!" Annie shoved his hand away and said angrily, "Do you know that he was bitten by the snake because he was trying to protect me? Do you know that he injured his arm and lost so much blood because he was trying to s.h.i.+eld me? Also, he got a fever because he was trying to save me! What have you ever done for me?"
Chris frowned and said severely, "I"m not referring to how much he has done for you, but that he has no ability to protect you well! That"s the most important thing. If he can"t protect you, how can I give you away without worries?"
