‘No… No!’
She had never wanted him to take responsibility like this…
Lina shook her head, and the pressure around her instantly reduced.
Hadwin Stephenson’s eyes dimmed almost unmistakably. “Does that mean you don’t want to marry me? Would you

people protecting you, the Jackson family is no threat to you. If you ever get sick, you can also find the best
specialists to treat you,” said Lina.
Hadwin Stephenson still asked persistently, “I’m just asking whether you want me to live?”
Her throat seemed to burn. Lina took a deep breath. “I want your alive and well.” She had never wanted him to die.

A smile rose from the corners of his lips, and it spread to his eyes.
