Chapter 1016
Chapter 1016:
Julio's anger flared up. "You really don't know why I came to Alverton, do you? And what about everything that happened afterward? Who was it that made the first move to sleep with me?"
It was unclear whether he had come to Alverton because of the child or if he was just using it as an excuse to see her.
But whatever his true motive, he certainly had a good reason to be here. She had tried on multiple occasions to put some distance between them. However, it had eventually been her who had made the first move to sleep with him.
It was just that, in his heart, the reason she had made the first move to sleep with him was illogical.
"Julio, have you ever loved me?" Dalores' eyes turned red.
Julio felt his throat tighten, getting frustrated.
He adjusted his tie and leaned back in the chair, staying silent for a long time.
His tongue rested lightly against his cheek, and a subtle, almost mocking smile hovered on his lips.
Dalores' breath hitched, and her heart ached sharply. She bit her lower lip, took a deep breath, and said, "I refuse to believe that you don't realize how much I've always cared for you. If you pushed me away and spoke those harsh words because of the pressures from the Ferguson family, I can understand that. But now that the situation with the Ferguson family has stabilized, can you at least seriously consider what kind of relationship we should have moving forward? Or... should we end things between us for good?"
In the silent office, Dalores' voice was soft, but her words hit Julio like a ton of bricks.

He was so shocked he couldn't even process it.
She had always loved him?
Memories flooded back.
He saw her in her school uniform, running toward him with a bright smile. She would always grab his hand and follow him home like a puppy.
Her eyes used to sparkle, full of a love that was almost overwhelming.
Then, the matter of the Ferguson family happened, and he got caught up in his own problems. He didn't have time to notice the light in her eyes anymore.
Now, looking at her, he saw the light in her eyes had dimmed. It made his heart ache.
"Is the Ferguson family's situation stable now? Can you marry me? Can you marry someone who's not powerful, who can't help you?" Dalores bit her lip, staring at Julio, unwilling to ignore any subtle expression on his face.
She refused to believe he didn't love her.
She even thought he had fallen for her first.
