Chapter 398 - Get Married?
The first thing that occurred to Lisa\'s mind was that she thought she was going to fall down and get hurt again, but then a pair of strong hands immediately grabbed her and hugged her.
As soon as Rangga knew Lisa was going to fall on the marble floor, he immediately responded. Otherwise, the woman would see herself entering the hospital again.
He didn\'t want to make Lisa hurt again and put her through boredom while spending her days in a room with the distinct disinfectant smell.
Lisa was very lucky that the man was there with her. If not, she\'d have broken her spine because she was falling backwards.
\'I swear my life could\'ve ended right there if this guy weren\'t here…\' She thought to herself.
Her mind went blank at once as she stared dumbfounded at Rangga while her body was being held tightly by him. She didn\'t know what happened to her but she suddenly stiffened as if she didn\'t want to move.
The man held her waist with one hand to keep her balance, and the other held half of Lisa\'s shoulder, afraid that she might fall again. He was being careful not to hurt her.
"Uh... Thanks..." Lisa stared at him blankly and said, "Thanks, I—" not finished with her words, her lips were immediately caught by Rangga!
How shocked she was when Rangga caught her lips in a deep kiss when she had not finished thanking him.
Lisa didn\'t have time to react as Rangga didn\'t give her a chance to. The kiss came unexpectedly.
At first, Lisa intended to push Rangga away, struggling to escape his kiss, but there was no reason to push him. Her body seemed to surrender.
Rangga suddenly stopped moving and backed away from her. He turned around and didn\'t look at her. The man\'s aura felt cold and disappointed. The bed, all the clothes messed up on the floor… Everything made him feel an indescribable feeling. Rangga then took his clothes and put them on his shoulders, then went to the bathroom.
Lisa was relieved, she sighed heavily for a few moments, trying to sit on the bed. Then she straightened her hair, picked up the clothes on the floor and put them on.
Just one step closer and that man would\'ve made love to her!
The bathroom\'s door was tightly closed, all that could be heard was the sound of splashing water coming from inside. From outside, Lisa just sat there dumbfounded, stunned by the incident just now.
She tried to hold back and calm her heart, but a heavy feeling suddenly appeared inside. Lisa and Rangga have come to this point, the man is very nice to her but she still can\'t allow him to make love to her.
Oscar\'s shadow haunted her mind like a ghost, so no matter how hard she tried to get rid of him and forget their past together, her efforts ended up in vain.
It would be very unfair for Rangga if she still liked Oscar, so Lisa knew and realized that.
She couldn\'t forget Oscar, and in the meantime, she still couldn\'t.
About ten minutes later, the bathroom door was finally opened. Hearing the creak of the door made Lisa\'s mind suddenly snuff out her reverie. When she looked up, Rangga looked much calmer, but he still came out with a cold face.
"Sorry… give me a little more time… I still can\'t make love to you… I don\'t want to make love when I feel like I\'m forced to," Lisa said softly.
Rangga\'s face looked expressionless, unhappy like when he hugged Lisa and calmed her down in the living room. His lips formed a straight line, then turned his gaze at her.
"Lisa, if you\'re not ready, I don\'t mean to... I believe you will love me back one day."
Lisa quietly sat on the edge of the bed, feeling annoyed, full of guilt and then blaming herself. This is definitely a golden opportunity that she should enjoy after a long divorce, but her heart kept going against her wishes.
Lisa knows that she often forgets people who have hurt her in her life easily, but she really couldn\'t do it so fast when it comes to Oscar, the man she loved so much. Their past is just deeply embedded in her heart, so how could she forget him?
Rangga left the bedroom and went downstairs. From the sound of his footsteps, the man was walking towards his study.
Meanwhile, Lisa was alone in the room, trying to calm herself for a long time, but her heart was still in torment.
She knew that Rangga cared. Perhaps they don\'t have a chance right now, so if she and Rangga were really married, she would definitely be his wife. But will she break through the barrier in her heart?
Lisa paced around the room, and after thinking hard, she still looked nervous at the desk. The door was not tightly closed. Lisa then got up from her desk slowly and peeked at the ground floor. Rangga was seen standing in front of the living room\'s window, not moving at all.
"Of course I made him angry," said Lisa to herself. The guilt that was eating away at her grew stronger and stronger. As if every time she made Rangga disappointed, and every time the man accepted her rejection was a punishment for her.
After peeking at Rangga for a long time, she mustered up the courage to go down to the living room and talk to him.
"I want to tell you something..." Lisa said doubtfully.
Hearing her voice, Rangga turned and saw Lisa looking restless behind him. "Forgive me, Lis. I was like… I lost control. I shouldn\'t have stolen a kiss. I went back and forth saying I didn\'t mean to, but the truth is I always end up bullying you. I\'m sorry. I\'m really stupid," said Rangga softly. His face looked sad.
Lisa paced to step forward then grabbed Rangga\'s hand. She said firmly, "Let\'s get married."
Rangga thought he heard wrong, the man was looking at her with a confused face. He was speechless, and even more stunned.
"If you don\'t want to, I\'m not going to force you. I just want to tell you that I want to accept you, it\'s just…. I need more time." Lisa\'s voice sounded a little choked.
In the next second, Rangga hugged her tightly. Lisa could feel the man\'s heart beat constantly.
"Lisa, do you really want to marry me? I\'m not hearing this wrong right!?" Rangga couldn\'t believe it was Lisa who just said that.
"Yes, I do! But I don\'t understand whether I will fall in love with you in the future or not... But I promise, I will try my best to love you back."
Rangga\'s hands were shaking, he was very happy after hearing what Lisa just said. The man embraced her even tighter, tighter than when he calmed her down in the living room a few hours ago.
"Lisa, I still don\'t believe what I heard just now! My promise towards you.... I...." The man stammered, staring at Lisa with a shocked look and a flowery heart.
