"No." Eva denied it instinctively. "Michael, it's not what you're thinking. To be precise, I feel that I'm not worthy of you. Please don't waste your time on me anymore."

Eva's words to Michael were not mere formalities. She genuinely believed that he was good - from a good family, good-looking, with good character, and he also had self-respect, never taking advantage of his favorable conditions to fool around with women. "You think you're not worthy of me?" Michael chuckled softly, getting closer to her. "But Eva, if that's how you truly feel, shouldn't you have discussed it with me? I believe you are worthy, so do you still have any concerns?" Seeing her remain silent, Michael added, "Or are your concerns about him? If you don't go back to your home country, you..."

"Five years," she interrupted.

Upon hearing this, Michael was momentarily stunned.

"It's been five years, and I know you've been good to me. I did try to accept you, but I realized I couldn't." Through the lenses, Eva looked into the other person's eyes earnestly. "I've told you before, I can't reciprocate your feelings for me, so please don't treat me well."

Michael, however, gazed at her intensely. "But I can't do that. I can't stop treating you well, I can't stop looking at you, and I can't bear seeing you with another man."

As they spoke, Michael took a step closer.

Suddenly, he held onto Eva's slender waist and pulled her towards him.

Startled, Eva instinctively pushed him away from her chest.

But their distance had already closed.

Eva could clearly smell Michael's cool breath.

His voice lost its warmth and gained a sense of possession. "You know it's been five years. I've been treating you well all this time. If you're willing to accept me, I'll treat you even better in the days to come. I'll do whatever you say." He earnestly expressed himself, but Eva's brows furrowed even more as she listened.

In the end, she even became a little anxious. "You don't understand at all!"

Michael pressed his body closer.

"What don't I understand? Tell me."

"The better you are to me, the more guilty I feel. I can't give you the response you want. To put it simply, I don't like you, so being with you is hurting you. Do you understand?"

Eva stood still in her spot.

"You can like anyone you want, but I just want the person you are to be with me, as long as you stay with me."

Hearing this, Eva looked at him in disbelief. "How could that be?"

"Why not? I'm begging you, you live your life, and I'll live mine. Isn't that okay?"

Eva pushed him away. "That's absurd. It's impossible."

"Eva." Michael remained stationary, not following her. "You always know how to reject me, but you never try with me. If you don't try, how would you know it's impossible? It's only three days, you haven't seriously considered it in those three days, and you want to reject me. Is that fair to me?"

Fair? Thinking carefully about what Michael said, she seemed unfair to him.

"Three days. If you think that's too short, how about a week?" In the end, Michael had to make a concession in fear of being rejected right at this moment.

Upon hearing this, Eva's expression instantly grew weary.

He was always like this, treating her so well, accommodating her to the extreme. It seemed like no matter what she did, he would never mind, always accepting her. From all perspectives, he truly was an exceptional partner.

Unfortunately, that feeling was Eva's weakness.

She turned her head to look at him. "I'm sorry."

Michael looked at her steadfastly, and after a long while, a warm smile returned to his face. "Are you tired today? Go upstairs first, we can talk in a couple of days." "Michael..."

"The kids must be eagerly waiting for you. Go upstairs quickly."

With that, Michael even reached out and grabbed her shoulders, pushing her forward, and then sent her into the elevator. After pressing the floor for her, he left and said to her, "Once you go up, just have David come down directly." Eva frowned but didn't reply to his words. As the elevator doors closed slowly, just before they shut completely, Eva saw Michael smile at her.

"Goodnight, sweet dreams."

At that moment, the elevator doors closed completely.

When Eva returned home, David and another nanny on duty were talking in the living room. When they saw her come back, they immediately stood up to greet her.

Thinking about what Michael had said, Eva said to David, "David, Michael is waiting for you downstairs."

"Mr. Cooper didn't come up today? Then I'll go down first."

He didn't suspect anything and left after saying that.

Not long after he left, Eva walked to the window and pulled back the curtains. From her position, she could still see Michael downstairs.

His tall figure stood beside the car. Despite the bright community lights, he had an infinitely lonely appearance.

He stood silently on the side of the road until David came down. They seemed to have had a conversation before leaving together. Michael came in the car, but they left in David's car.

Eva let go of the curtains.

"Mummy." Ruby's voice came from behind, asking, "Mummy, where did you go today? Why did you come back so late?"

Hearing this, Eva turned around and bent down. "Mummy had some things to do these days, so I'll probably come home late."

The two little kids were considerate and didn't ask further questions, perhaps because they were young and not interested in such matters.

There was no live broadcast tonight, so the two little ones played with building blocks in the living room after dinner.

Eva went to the kitchen by herself.

"Ms. Hansen, is there anything you need?" The other nanny, Victoria, was younger than Luna by almost ten years and only a few years older than Eva. She hadn't been in this job for long, and when she saw Eva come in, she nervously wiped her hands.

Eva could tell she was uneasy, unlike Luna's relaxed state. But Eva didn't have the mood to comfort her, as this situation could only be adjusted by herself.

So Eva averted her gaze naturally and said, "I'm just checking the ingredients."

Eva opened the fridge and checked the food that could be used tomorrow morning.

Originally, she planned to just cook some plain rice porridge to bring to the hospital. Whether he ate it or not was up to him. But considering her ulterior motive, Eva felt she should show some thoughtfulness.

Besides, he was not in good condition, so she should prepare something nutritious for him.

In the end, Eva found some nutritious food that wouldn't be greasy and wouldn't affect his recovery, and prepared it before placing it aside.

Looking at the prepared food, Eva thought to herself that she would probably have to wake up half an hour earlier tomorrow to prepare breakfast.
