Stay Around You Now And Forever novel (Hunter Jackson)

Chapter 453: I Would Get You Want You Want

"No." Emily turned, looked up at the stars, and smiled, "We won’t be together again."

No matter whether the misunderstanding had been solved or not, or whether Hunter had helped the Gale Group, she and Hunter would never have the chance to return to the previous days.

Master Hunter was famous, and she was already notorious.

She lived on her own, and let the past be the past.

But if she was with Master Hunter, becoming the woman of Master Hunter and such an important person, her past would have been infinitely magnified.

She didn’t have the ability to bear it all.

Above all, she had to protect her children.

"But if he finds you here..."

If Master Hunter did find them here, then it was not up to her to say whether there was a possibility between them.

"I never think too much of it." Emily smiled at him and turned toward the hall.

"It's getting late, so get some rest and let Terry show you around the City tomorrow. It's not as lively as Bentson City, but it's quiet and different."

Joe knew she didn't want to continue the discussion, so he nodded and walked back down the hall with her.

Terry came out of the room and glared at Joe. "Leave Emily and the kids alone. Let's take you out for a drink."

Joe knew Terry wanted to talk to him.

He might be going to warn Joe of something.

Well, Terry, no matter when, cared Emily most.

Now, there were two more children, Emily's children, but not his.

Joe really felt sorry for him, but Jerry was really happy.

"Well, I'd like to try some of the night snacks here, too."

"You are not a kid."

After the two men leave the house, Emily returned to her room and looked at the two sleeping children.

Joe was right. Basia might not be that obvious yet, but Chester...

She stretched out her hand, and before the tip of her finger touched Chester, the little fellow frowned, as if he knew someone was touching him.

A child of one year old with such a high sense of alertness, was very much like Hunter.

That guy’s genes were all inherited by this little kid...

But no matter who Chester was, she was not going to let Hunter take her baby back.

The children hers. They could only belong to her!

"What was it with you and Emily? It's been two years. Can’t you get together? She may not forget the man, but it is you who has been with her for the last two years."

Joe immediately started talking after drinking.

"I have talked to her tonight, and she told me that that man and her would have no chance to get back together."

"Can't you force your way forward when she's so decisive? They can't, that means you can!"

It wasn't that he wanted to nag, but he knew Terry's personality all too well.

In order not to embarrass Emily, he could definitely hold his feelings for her in his stomach for the rest of his life!

If he didn't say that, Emily wouldn’t be under pressure, but they certainly wouldn't make the first move.

This stupid man. If the man did not make the first move, was he waiting for the woman to take the initiative?

Under such occasion, how could she possibly take the initiave?

She was the mother of two children! She would feel that she was no longer fit for love, no longer qualified to pursue happiness.

So, how could she make the first move?

"She doesn't like me." Terry drank quietly, looking calm.

But Joe knew that he was really upset.

"If you don't tell her, how do you know she won't accept you?"

Isn’t there a saying that women are easily softhearted?

Perhaps, after forcing her to accept passively, they could be together in the future!

"Did you confess your love?" Joe asked directly.

Terry didn't know how to answer the question.

Finally, he shook his head. "I don't want to embarrass her."

It was lucky for Terry that Emily thought of him and asked him for help when she was in such a difficult time.

Be depended on by her could make him happy forever.

"I knew it!" Joe looked so angry that he almost beat his chest.

"Look, you are so dull, and that’s why you've made no progress at all! Tell me if that's what you meant to do with your life."

After some thought, Terry nodded and said, "If I could, this would be nice for a lifetime."

Emily depended on him, and the children call him daddy. It was a happy life, wasn't it?

"You... You really are... I'm so mad at you!"

Would it be alright to be together like this forever?

But this stupid man seemed to be really enjoying his happiness and didn't feel regret at all.

"You have to confess your love! You have to! You..."

"She once told me to leave." The smile on Terry's lips faded away.

"She doesn't want to be a drag on me for the rest of my life. She wants me to go away and have my own life. She thinks she can raise two kids on her own."

"She..." Joe was stunned for a moment, and finally understood why he dared not confess.

"Are you afraid that she would refuse you, and that would strengthen her intention of driving you away?"

Terry was silent and looked somewhat lonely.

Joe knew he had guessed right.

This was a little tricky.

Although Emily looked like a soft and weak little girl on the surface, in fact, she was very tough, tougher than anyone else.

Two years ago, before she left, she drew Sunny Media a three-year development plan.

Now, with steady steps under her customized plan, Sunny Media began to make profits early this year.

Compared with Henry’s expected profit time, it was earlier!

Emily was a very calm person, which could be seen in this case.

Terry, Well, was not unreasonable to worry about it.

"But there's always a chance when you're both so young!"

Young and energetic, and they lived together. Didn’t feelings develop bit by bit?

"Besides, things would change. She refused you before, but it doesn’t mean she would refuse you again."

Anyway, Joe just didn’t think that they could live with this Platonic relationship for the rest of their lives.

He thought about it for a moment, and then the worst thing that could happen was, "Terry, drink more. Drink as much as you can."

"Why?" Terry gave him a look.

He couldn't drink too much. He had to take care of Emily and the two kids when he got home.

"Anyway, just listen to me. Drink more. I promise not to hurt you."

Joe opened another bottle of wine and pushed it to him. "I'll make all your wishes come true, quickly! Drink it!"
