chapter 250
“Theodore, do you like me?” Elara’s question was direct and bold.
Theodore’s earlobes instantly turned red. He propped both bands on the coffee table and lowered his head His long, thick eyelashes trembled slightly.
However, the laughter he couldn’t suppress had already spilled from his throat.
“Yeah, I like you,” he replied. He looked directly at Elara as he said that.
His eyes were as bright as the stars. Elara subconsciously held her breath, not wanting to miss the brilliant light in his eyes.
Theodore’s gaze softened as he looked at her. At that moment, the whole world fell silent.
“Do you know when I first found myself drawn to you?“.
Elara tilted her head in thought. “Was it when I took first place in every competition as Luna?”
Theodore smiled.
“It was when you stood on the podium at Capitol University, full of confidence; When you sped across the racetrack at full throttle; When you ran headlong into love without hesitation; When you juggled your life between school and the Fisher family, tirelessly caring for two children.
“Every phase of you is what I love. Every day, every year, you radiate an unstoppable vitality.
“When you told Harvey you’ll see him at the courthouse and sped down the highway, it made me like you even
more.
Lesley’s eyes widened as she listened to Theodore’s blatant confession.
Finnegan was shrouded in a heavy, oppressive aura. If Elara gave the word, he would throw this shameless man straight out of the floor–to–ceiling window.
“Are you forcing Elara into a relationship with you?”
Finnegan’s tone was unfriendly. His expression was dark, as if he might tear the man in front of him apart at any moment. However, Theodore focused only on Elara, ignoring Finnegan completely.
“There is nothing to hide about an adult man’s love and admiration for a single woman. However, I don’t need you to respond to my feelings. Liking you is my business, and I am responsible for my feelings, not you. If my love for
offends you
and makes you feel uncomfortable, then I am wrong, and I will back off. I will always act within the boundaries of your comfort.”

Hearing Theodore’s words, Elara found it rather interesting. So, she asked him, “Mr. Snapp, how do you think! should respond to your feelings?”
The man leaned forward, and Elara felt the crisp, refreshing scent emanating from him, enveloping her entirely.
“Does my body look good?”
He deliberately lowered his voice, but his words exploded in Elara’s ears like a sudden clap of thunder.
Unbidden, images of the selfies Theodore had sent her surfaced in her mind.
Every time he sent a picture, he would ask, “Do you like it?
“If you don’t like it, I’ll delete it.”

“If you don’t reply, that means I can send more.”
“If you like it, take a good look. I’m only showing them to you.”

Lesley and Finnegan stretched their necks slightly–what could possibly be sald here that they weren’t allowed to hear?
“Elara, try to enjoy the feeling of being liked by me. You don’t have to give me anything in return or give me any answer. Just like experiencing anything in this world, experience being loved without any response.
“You don’t have to do anything. I will love you because you’re you, and getting your permission and being able to love you openly is enough for me!
