Chapter 669 Will You Fight For Me?
Sophia felt her heart fluttering upon hearing those three magical words from Matthew. It was just three simple words but her heart began pounding crazily inside her chest.
She would never get used to this sweetness. She felt like she was still dreaming. Whenever she looked at him, Sophia was asking herself what she did to deserve him.
Matthew was an amazing guy. He was so gentle and thoughtful. He was always respecting and protecting her.
"I love you too, Matt," Sophia finally responded after being stunned for a few moments. Her face was blushing and she was not looking at his eyes.
Matthew pouted his lips and lifted her chin so that he could meet her eyes.
"Say it again… Sophie please… say it again while looking at me," Matthew begged her with his pleading eyes.
Sophia bit her lower lip. She would still feel a little bit embarrassed, that\'s why she couldn\'t look at him while saying those words. She felt like her heart was going to explode and her whole being was melting by just looking at him.
Sophia wanted to tell him lots of things but she was not vocal about her feelings. It was always Matthew who was very expressive when it came to his feelings for her.
Sophia glanced at him, meeting his eyes. "I love you, Matt."
Matthew\'s lips curled up into a broad smile, his eyes sparkling with delight. His heart skipped a beat when he heard those words from her while staring straight into his eyes.
Once again, Matthew cupped her face and leaned in for another deep kiss. He didn\'t want this moment to end. He loved the feeling of being with her in this wonderful place surrounded by beautiful flowers and green trees.
The birds were singing and butterflies were flying around them. Here he was standing while kissing his beloved woman. At that certain moment, he had sworn to himself that he would take care of her heart and would never hurt her.
He would make her happy and show her how much she meant to him. He was grateful that Sophia gave him the chance to love her and prove it to her. He would never waste that chance she had given him.
Matthew expressed his strong love for her through this kiss. He was kissing her tenderly, brushing her lips with his. He nibbled on her lower lip and upper lip. This time no tongue was involved, just their lips touching each other.
When they broke apart, Matthew pulled her to a shaded area with green grasses. He sat on the ground and grabbed Sophia\'s hand, making her sit on his lap.
Blood rushed on Sophia\'s cheeks as she landed on his lap directly. Matthew engulfed her in his arms as he placed his chin over her shoulder.
"Sophie, my love, let\'s meet your parents once we return to the City of Empire. If it is okay with you. And about meeting my family, I know you already agreed with me before so I am planning to bring you during our family gathering."
A hint of worry appeared on Sophia\'s face once again. She already agreed but here she was feeling nervous.
"Matt, are you really sure about this? Will you not get tired of me? I know there are lots of capable women out there that can match your family status. I-"
Sophia was not able to finish her words since Matthew sealed her lips using his index finger.
"For me… you are the best woman in the world. Of course, I am 101 percent sure about this. I will not get tired of you. I should be the one who should feel afraid since you might throw me away once you meet a younger guy."
Both Sophia and Matthew had insecurities to themselves when it came to their relationship. Matthew was insecure because of the gaps in their age while Sophia was worrying about the gaps in their social status. But they were trying their best to conquer those insecurities together.
"I\'m not gonna do that to you," Sophia said with certainty.
"I know… because I will not let you. If I have to seduce you just to win your heart again, then I will not hesitate to do that. I will keep chasing after you," Matthew uttered with so much conviction.
"Seduce me???" Sophia asked him with disbelief.
Matthew bobbed his head vigorously. "Yes, I will seduce you using my charm. I will not let others take you away from me."
Sophia could no longer hold her laughter. She didn\'t expect that Matthew would be this frank. Seriously? He planned on seducing her. Now she wondered how he would do that.
"Hey, why are you laughing? Do you think I\'m joking?" Matthew asked, putting on a pitiful face.
Sophia apologized for laughing. She couldn\'t help it.
"How will you seduce me, Matt? Will you dance and strip in front of me?" Sophia asked, her eyes gleaming with humor.
Matthew gave her a cheeky grin before whispering in her ear. "Oh, is that what you want me to do? I can give it a try then. Hmm, my love, should I do a sexy dance later?"
"Hey, I am just kidding. Don\'t take my words seriously!" Sophia took her words back, afraid that Matthew would seriously do it. Her face heated up once again, her ears burning red.
Matthew let out a husky laugh, pulling her closer as he hugged her tight. Then Matthew threw her a very serious question after he stopped laughing.
"How about you, Sophie? If someone will try to steal me away from you, will you fight for me too?" Matthew asked her from the bottom of his heart. He wanted to hear and know her feelings.
Sophia was caught off guard by that question. What would she do? Would she fight for him too or would she just give up Matthew without putting up a fight once she learned that the woman was better than her?
Matthew started to feel anxious since Sophia was taking her time in answering his question.
\'Eh, Can\'t she just say it? Is it hard to fight for me?\'
Matthew was disheartened thinking that Sophia would not fight for him. But Sophia gave him her most honest answer to his direct question.
"Matt, if you still like me and you still want to stick with me then I will definitely fight for you. But once I see that you are no longer interested in me, maybe that\'s the time I should give up and let you go. If you will be happier with her than with me, then I will not hinder your happiness."
Matthew smiled after hearing that. "Then I feel assured. I will keep that in mind, my love. And remember this… you will surely fight for me because I will never get tired of you nor lose interest in you."
"Sophia… I am certain that my feelings for you will not change. So better do your promise. You have to fight for me, for our love. Okay?"
Sophia nodded her head. "Yes, I will do that. I promise!"
Matthew sealed her promise by kissing her lips once again.
