Chapter 234: MEMORIES
Giana stood at the door of the house for a long time, not knowing what to do or say.
In fact, Giana had already thought and imagined a perfect scenario, along with a list of long sentences to debate whatever Dillon\'s answer would be when she tried to persuade the man to come back with her.
But when she had to do it for real and confront Dillon, Giana felt doubtful whether she could convince him to come back or not.
Behind Giana, the moon was shining brightly and the sounds of the nocturnal creatures made her feel even more restless.
How could the atmosphere be so calm when it was the exact opposite of how Giana felt now?
A thought of going back to town A without seeing Dillon had crossed Giana\'s mind, maybe it was not wise to drag Dillon into her own war, a long battle that had absolutely nothing to do with the man.
Especially when Giana couldn\'t reciprocate Dillon\'s feelings for her…
But, couldn\'t Giana take advantage of those feelings? If Dillon really loved her, then the man would do what she wanted him to, wouldn\'t he? Of course with a little manipulation here and there…
It was just that, thinking about it, made Giana feel really bad because she was trying to take advantage of the feelings of the man who loved her and had been with her through many things in her complicated life. And now, Dillon was even saying openly that he didn\'t care about Giana\'s past and wanted to stay with her.
It might sound very romantic and sweet, but Giana couldn\'t fake her feelings since she didn\'t love Dillon and didn\'t see him as more than a friend or work partner.
This problem turned out to be much more complicated than Giana had imagined…
And while she was deep in her thoughts, the door of the house suddenly opened and startled them both.
Behind the door, Dillon was standing with a big black plastic bag. It looked like he was going to take out the trash, but didn\'t expect that he would find Giana, standing pensively behind his door.
"What are you doing here?" Dillon asked with a frown, staring at the woman who looked disheveled and surprised.
Dillon thought, when Giana just left after he had confessed how he felt, they would never meet again, or not so soon, but in fact Giana was right in front of him and what she did after that really left Dillon dumbfounded and confused.
He didn\'t know what went through Giana\'s mind as she rushed into Dillon\'s arms and hugged him tightly.
Giana buried her face on the man\'s chest as she sobbed.
This incident or what Giana was doing now was completely outside the scenario she had planned. Didn\'t she come here to talk? And instead of wailing like a child?
But, deep in Giana\'s heart, she knew that this was what she needed, someone who could comfort her and tell her that everything would be okay.
Sometimes, appearing very tough in front of a crowd will make you slowly tired of your own attitude. And that was what Giana was feeling right now.
Giana\'s cries and her sudden embrace of course startled Dillon. He hadn\'t even recovered from the shock of seeing Giana, but now this woman took the initiative to hug him first.
And before Dillon could process what he had to do, his instincts took over and did what he wasn\'t supposed to do.
Dillon let go of the black plastic bag he was carrying and hugged Giana tightly, as if to prevent the woman in his arms from being shattered further.
Dillon\'s soft and warm hands stroked Giana\'s back gently, in a soothing motion, but Giana\'s crying didn\'t stop and her body was shaking violently because of it instead.
Giana cried for quite a long time and during that time, Dillon just hugged her tightly without saying a word. Surprisingly, for unknown reasons, Dillon understood why Giana suddenly had a mental breakdown.
Even though Dillon wasn\'t by this woman\'s side, that didn\'t mean he wasn\'t keeping up with the news.
And the latest news that Giana was going to divorce Aidan Smith and taking her claim over the Dawson company, succeeding her father, really made the whole media go crazy, as a lot of pros and cons coupled with wild assumptions were developed in society.
Most of them did not believe that Giana would be able to run the company, they were pessimistic and this was not a good move.
"If you keep hugging me while crying like this, then I\'ll misunderstand," Dillon finally said in a weak voice, when Giana\'s crying had subsided a little.
Slowly, Giana then freed herself from Dillon, but still gripping his shirt, then looked at the man through her wet eyelashes.
"Feel better?" he asked.
For a moment, they stared at each other without Giana answering Dillon\'s question, but then, Giana grabbed Dillon\'s face and pulled him closer, until their lips touched.
And this action was completely beyond Dillon\'s expectations. He was so shocked that he couldn\'t react when Giana kissed him and bit his lip before she let go again.
She looked into his eyes very intently, as if this woman could see into his heart.
Or maybe she could and Giana immediately knew what Dillon wanted.
"Will you come back to me?" she asked quietly, her eyes filled with hope.
It\'s crazy, Dillon knows it\'s crazy, but he can\'t help it...
Especially when this time it was he who took the initiative to kiss Giana and she returned it with the same passion.
