His Domineering Lover

Thirza didn't sleep until she saw the man beside her suddenly wake up from sleep and sit up straight.

"Steve, did you have a nightmare?"

Steve wiped the sweat on his forehead and said, "Nothing."

"We'll land in half an hour." It seemed that Thirza was in a good mood.

"Is that so?" Steve looked at the white clouds and blue sky outside. It was clearly such a good day, but he couldn't cheer up at all.

He knew that the nightmare he just had was bound to come true sooner or later, as long as he was still with Thirza.

"Thirza, you like design, don't you?" Steve suddenly asked.

"Yes, I'm not like Serena. I like putting things on the paper rather than getting things from them."

"On this point, you are like your mom," Steve recalled how it was when Tracey was in Country S.

She had just started the company with him at that time, buried in work every day. But she would still squeeze out time to fiddle around with her designs.

"Of course, why'd you suddenly bring this up?" Thirza knew there was something behind his simple question.

"Thirza, since you like designing so much, I'm thinking about sending you over to Milan to major in design."

Steve was interrupted by Thirza before he could finish his words. "I don't want it. I don't want to be separated from you. I could totally do it here in Country S." She felt a little rattling in her heart, but Steve said firmly, "I will come to see you often. Just listen to me for this one time, okay?"

"No, not okay, not okay at all! Steve, you said you wouldn't drive me away anymore."

Seeing her pitiful eyes, Steve was also very upset. Of course, he did not want to be separated from Thirza.

But as an adult, he considered more things than Thirza. He was afraid that Thirza was just on a whim for all of this.

Or perhaps, because she had been by his side since she was an infant, Thirza might have only been relying on him.

If she left him, would she really recognize her heart after seeing more people, boys, in particular, her age? Although Steve didn't want to leave Thirza, he had to do this for her own good.

Seeing that Thirza was still a little out of control, Steve did not mention it again. After all, they were still on a plane.

After the plane landed, they returned home. On the way home, Thirza kept on repeating one single question, "Steve, don't drive me away, okay? I can't live without you." Steve opened the door but Thirza was still tugging at the corner of Steve's clothes, just like when she was a child.

"Steve, I want to lollipops."

"No, you are getting your permanent teeth, you can't eat candy."

"I'll just lick it, I won't swallow it."

"Steve, I couldn't even remember my own period. You are the one always buying tampons for me. If I were to be without you, I'd even forget that!"

"And, and you'd always buy me new clothes when the season changes. I love the clothes you buy for me."

"You know my birthday, you know what I like and what I hate. You know me better than I do."

"If it weren't for you, how could I survive? Sheep, you said you would not drive..."

Before she could finish her words, Steve suddenly pulled her into his arms. He hugged her so tightly as if he was going to break her bones.Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

"Thirza, I'm not trying to drive you away. You are the most precious treasure of my world, how could I bear to drive you away?"

"Then why do you want me to study design in Milan? Steve, isn't it good now?" Thirza held him in her arms with her tears rolling down.

Steve felt the trembling of the little girl in his arms as his heart also hurt as if it were to be torn into pieces.

"Thirza, you've been with me since you were a baby. Except for you dad and me, you have been with no other males."

"So I can totally understand that you grew a certain amount of feelings for me. You rely on me and you like me, there's nothing wrong with that." "But you are still too young to tell that kind of feeling from actual love."

"Steve, don't treat me as a child. I know very well what I mean to you. I like you, and I really like you."

"If it's really like what you say it is, I dare you to bet with me."

"What bet?"

"You will go to Milan to study. After your study, for however long that may be, if you will be still feeling the way you are feeling now, I'll be with you, be all difficult as it may."

This was the only thing that Steve could do for the two. He had tried to refuse her and run away from her, only ending up being hurt himself.

Therefore, this was the only way Steve could do it. Some people said that time and distance would defeat all love, however hard it was.

Especially for a tender flower like Thirza, who had yet to bloom. For her, the world lying ahead was still too vast that she could barely imagine it now. She would very likely forget all about him not long after leaving him and meeting someone else.

When Steve made this decision, his heart was almost torn apart. It was so painful.

If Thirza loved him, then his feelings for Thirza were even more fierce and deeper. He had watched Thirza grow up.

If Thirza really fell in love with someone else one day, he would not only not stop her but also be there for her wedding with a comforting smile on his face.

"Steve, do you not have faith in me or yourself?" "Thirza, I don't want to hurt you. Over the years, you have been everly dependent on me, so that you have forgotten to get along with your peers.

"Perhaps you've just taken a wrong turn along the road, but it's not too late now to turn you back around."

"If we are really destined to be together, when you finish your work over there and come back, we can still be together."

Thirza calmed down. She could understand Steve. Everything he did was for her good. How could she let him down?

Moreover, she would prove to Steve that no matter how far apart they were, how long they had been separated, she only had him in her heart. "How long do I have to study?"

"Six years." Steve pronounced the answer word by word.

Tears welled up in Thirza's eyes. "You are so cruel, Steve."

Steve gently wiped the tears from her eyes and said, "Thirza, you deserve a normal life."

"Steve, are you trying to get me away so you can marry some random woman?"

"And when I get back, you would have a child about five years old and there's nothing I can do

by then."

Steve was helpless. This girl was really hard to get around. "I will never lie to you. I won't touch any woman for six years after you leave."

"Steve, do you really want me to go? You've already been all alone for so many years, are you sure you can get through six more? Who's gonna be there for you once I'm gone?"

"Well, just like you said, I've already been alone for so many years, so why not six more? But after six years, I'd be 40 years old. Wouldn't I be too old for you?" Thirza shook her head repeatedly and said, "A man in forties is in his prime years. Plus, you work out every day, you'll be as fit as a fiddle even when you are fifty."

"By the way, my dad is about 40 years old this year, and he looks only 30 years old. He doesn't strike as old at all."

"Slippery tongue of yours. So, is that a yes from you?" Steve gently asked.

"Is there any room for me to refuse? But remember, I'm only going to Milan because you want me to."
