He Clings to Me Every Night

Chapter 674: Chapter 674: Ten-Year Pact

Jay Bennett had a sweet smile on his face.

Suddenly, she felt so happy.

No matter what form their relationship took with Benjamin Davis, she was willing to embrace it since this was her most cherished wish.

Jay glanced at Benjamin with her tender eyes without blinking, and reached out her hand to him, “Let’s make a pinky promise. No take backs!”

A slight smile enlivened Benjamin Davis’ lips, and then he made the pinky promise with Jay, “Don’t worry, no matter how things change, I will take care of you. Jay, you are really innocent. I hope you can always maintain your original intentions and not be influenced by anyone. Always walk towards the light, so you won’t go wrong.”

“I’m afraid of loneliness. I’m afraid of walking alone all the way.”

Looking ahead to another five years, Benjamin believes he would still be single. Maybe after spending five years with Jay, she would become more cheerful, more mature, and her stubborn thoughts should change. By then, perhaps there will be more outstanding pursuers around her, and he could let go.

Maybe by that time, Jay would become stronger, able to face reality.

Perhaps she will have a new understanding of life, can stand on her own, and accept it when he leaves her.

After a moment of thought, Benjamin Davis says,”It’s okay, I am here with you.” Just like family. freēwēbηovel.c૦m

Biting her lip, Jay suddenly proposed bravely, “How about this, we make a deal. If in ten years, you are still single, and so am I, we give ourselves a chance.”

Ten years?

Benjamin Davis fell silent, his deep eyes unwaveringly on Jay.

Jay pretended not to care, she chuckled lightly, “Ten years, who knows what will happen. Consider it as a wish of mine, and also a goal. It helps me accept reality and gives me an excuse to escape.

Ten years, maybe my thoughts will change, maybe it’s really possible! Maybe with this goal in mind, I will be less jealous, and won’t feel so sad.”

Indeed, who knows what will happen after ten years?

Who could insist on being single for so long?

Maybe destiny will intervene?

Suddenly, Benjamin put out his hand,”Come on, let’s make this pinky promise.”

Jay nodded, and made another pinky promise with Benjamin Davis.

With a glimmer of anticipation, Jay’s face reveals a calm smile.

It was really just a thought for her heart – in the future, she could face life more calmly, withstand all adversity, and even if she heard bad news, she could fool herself into thinking they might still end up together, with this pact.

The roller-coaster of emotions was controlling her like a devil. She was worried she would lose control and do something annoying.

With this pact, she should be able to avoid acting impulsively and irrationally, at least due to her weakness.

She could stay by Benjamin Davis’ side, accompany him, and over time, maybe she could find a place in his heart.

Just clinging onto these thoughts, even if Benjamin Davis wants to be with Olivia Jenkins, she could bear the pain and wait for him for ten whole years.

Jay thought she was being foolish. But as long as she could stay with Benjamin Davis, she was willing.

…

Sitting on the bed, Olivia Jenkins was still reading.

Daniel had fallen asleep. Or seemed to have. After waiting for some time, Olivia finally turned off the light and lay down.

Suddenly, Daniel turned over, lay on his side, and snuggled up to Olivia.

Instantly, Olivia’s body stiffened. In the darkness, her eyes sprung open in alarm.

After a moment of shock, Olivia dared not move. She turned her head slowly, looking at Daniel lying next to her.
