Oscar chuckled crisply then raised his hand and touched the back of Lisa's palm. When he saw Lisa, the man's eyes were warm, like seeing someone so precious in his life.

"Lisa, we always fight because of misunderstanding. From now on, let's try to understand and trust each other. Please give me just this once chance to mend our relationship." Oscar said softly.

"I don't want to waste any more time, Lisa." Oscar continued.

Without realizing it, the man's words send chills down Lisa's spine. She wanted to let go of Oscar's grip, but the man tightened his grip even more.

Oscar had known Lisa long enough to know what she was going to do.. Before Lisa could take her hand away, he had already tightened his grip. He didn't give her a chance to run away from him, again.

'Did Oscar just confess his feelings?' Lisa thought to herself.

For a few seconds, Lisa was silent and saw the look on Oscar's face. She was trying to guess whether the man was telling the truth or just joking. But during those few seconds, the look on the man's face remained the same. Serious and sincere.

Oscar had done everything to make Lisa feel comfortable and happy. When they were engaged and married back then, Lisa never stopped feeling grateful for the man.

Lisa wasn't just grateful that Oscar had given her a child and now was taking care of William. She was grateful that Oscar always tried to do the best for her.

And because of that, Lisa wanted to repay Oscar's kindness.

But when they divorced, Lisa's feelings immediately changed. She no longer loved the man and hoped she would never meet him again. Lisa hopes that her relationship with Oscar will only last as William's parents, and nothing more.

When they were divorced, Lisa's eyes seemed to be wide open. She came to think that Oscar was a man who liked to play with women and waste his money on expensive things.

He liked going to nightclubs, having sex with other women, getting drunk, and so on.

Over time, Lisa realized that all of that was not true. Maybe she was too emotional before to the point that she thought Oscar was that much of a bastard.

Oscar, who was now lying on the patient bed, was different from the man Lisa had known.

If he used to look violent with a mind filled with lust now, the man looks like a real gentleman.

Lisa herself doesn't know since when she started to open her heart and slowly accepted Oscar in her life... Again.

The matter regarding them, who often quarreled and became enemies for several days, wasn't entirely Oscar's fault. Lisa was also at fault for her childish and stubborn attitude.

Even though Oscar had explained that he and Indri have nothing to do other than being colleagues, Lisa still didn't believe him and accused him of all sorts of things.

Maybe she used to feel that way because she wasn't confident. Because honestly, people who have eyes will definitely prefer Indri over Lisa. Like she said before, Indri is beautiful, rich, and also smart.

Who will choose a wilted flower over the one that blooms beautifully?

For the next few moments, Lisa remained silent. Dozens of thoughts filled her mind. She started to think over whether what Oscar said was true or not, as well as how she had to answer him now.

Lisa didn't want to look like a cheap woman who was ready to forgive him at that moment. But she was also tired of lying to herself by refusing Oscar's love.

Finally, she decided to tell the truth.

"Give me some time to think about it." Lisa's reply was short, concise, and clear.

Hearing that made Oscar tighten his grip on the back of Lisa's palm. "Really? Oh my God, how much longer do I have to wait for you? I can't wait, Lisa!"

Seeing Oscar's smiling face, his serious voice, and not to mention the man's grip on her hand that made her body warm, Lisa laughed loudly.

It had been a long time since she felt this happy. She was so happy that she was sure that her body would float far into the sky.

"Well, it's time for me to immediately accept your request! I have to see if what you're saying is true or just a lie!" Lisa teased, trying so hard to look serious.

"Why do you want to wait again, Lisa? I'm really serious about fixing our relationship!" Oscar replied impatiently.

Lisa rolled her eyes, "Who knows if what you're saying is just to get me back with you again. Then when you're bored, I'll be dumped and you'll find another girl. I don't want that to happen, you know!"

Hearing that made Oscar panic. Bored? How could he be bored of Lisa! The man felt panicked and also scared. Does he look like a man who likes to play with other women?

"Lisa, Lisa, listen to me! I promise I will only treat you like a queen! No other woman will ever be able to take your place in my heart!"

Again, Lisa's cheeks reddened hearing Oscar's words just now. She used the opportunity to keep her hand away from Oscar. She folded her arms across her chest and continued.

"Blah blah, I don't believe what you're saying! Prove it first then I will accept you back in my life."historical

Oscar finally raised his hand, raising his index and middle finger, "I swear, I can swear that you are the only one in my heart! If I don't keep my word, I'll be hit by a high-speed truck!"

"Hey! Don't say something like that! You just got hit by a bus, you stupid! Now you want to be hit by a truck!? Ugh this is why I hate you!"

Oscar finally laughed heartily and said, "I said that because I'm sure I will keep being true to what I said earlier."

"Yes, but we don't know what will happen in the future. Neither you nor I know what destiny awaits us, Oscar. What if we part again in the future and never be together again? What if you start to fall in love with another girl and forget me in no time. Then you will be hit by a truck just like you said, do you want that to happen!?"

"Don't worry. That's not going to happen, Lisa." Oscar replied firmly.
