Sweetheart Do You Still Love Me novel Chapter 570

Chapter 570 Secret Crush

"So, you came back from abroad because of this?" Yelena had heard Cecelia mention it before, but not in such detail.

Thinking of Cecelia's unrequited love, Yelena couldn't help but feel regretful. "It's okay. Although he has fallen in love with someone else and is with someone else now, at least he appeared in your youth, and I believe you will meet someone better." She held Cecelia's hand, her face full of hope.

On the other hand, Hank and Elspeth remained silent. Then, Yelena continued to speak a lot of random things, basically telling Cecelia not to dwell on the past, to look forward, and to think about her relationship with Yozan. She finished speaking, and the other two had nothing to say.

However, as they were leaving, he asked Elspeth to escort Yelena home and said he had something to ask Cecelia.

After hearing that, Elspeth's eyes narrowed as she looked at him full of scrutiny.

"Thank you," he apologized with a smile.

Nevertheless, Elspeth didn't say anything and dragged Yelena away.

When only the two of them were left in the room, Hank finally asked coldly, "The person you were talking about, right? It's not me, is it?"

Cecelia retorted, "How could it be you? You're too self-centered."

"Cecelia, I'm not quite sure what you were trying to convey today, but regardless, I hope we can both move forward and be okay." His words were clearly a threat.

After hearing that, her eyes turned red instantly. "Hank, is that how you see me? Do you think I would ruin the relationship between you two?"

Then, he looked at her with an unclear expression. "Of course not. Yelena has always been pure-hearted and hasn't thought much about it."

Others, particularly Elspeth, fully comprehended Cecelia's earlier statement.

"Yelena may be pure-hearted, but does that mean I'm a scheming bad woman?" Cecelia's heart sank. "I've liked you for so long, but you fell in love with someone else. Did you really not have any feelings for me before?"

Since they were young, Hank had always treated her like a little sister and never considered becoming anything more with her. Their relationship had always been close, and he assumed she enjoyed spending time with him. Their personalities and interests were very much alike; he had always thought they would be lifelong good friends. However, she suddenly confessed her hidden feelings for him.

"Cecelia, we can never be together," he said with a strange expression.

"Cecelia, we can never be together," he said with a strange expression.

"Don't worry. I only said those things today to give the story a complete ending. I have no intention of ruining your relationship with her," Cecelia replied, her voice faltering. "Besides, I've hidden these feelings well all this time." Her words were sincere, and no one, not even Yozan, had noticed her buried emotions since her return.

After hearing that, he stepped forward and reassured her with a pat on the shoulder. "Cecelia, we will always remain friends."

Suddenly, she looked up with tears and made a request. "Can I ask you for one thing? I promise that it's only one."

Hank asked, "What is it?"

Cecelia replied, "May I please have a hug?"

Unfortunately, he declined her request. "I'm sorry, but I can't."
