Chapter Thirty-Five
Sebastian
I wasn’t taking no for an answer. She still loved me. I could see it in her eyes and now I needed to do everything in my power to try and get her back. Chloe Kane missing from my life wasn’t an option. Now, I was on a mission, but I’d give her a few days to settle down and clear her head, and then I’d make my move. We were meant to be together, and that was exactly what we were going to be.
While in Seattle, I made a self-discovery and finally realized my purpose in life. It wasn’t to run a billion-dollar company. My purpose in life was to love Chloe and take care of her physically and emotionally; that was exactly what I planned to do. I finally felt free by accepting the overwhelming feelings I had for her. My fears of hurting her and letting her down dissipated. Some were still there, but once I focused on my true feelings and what really mattered, I had finally stopped being my own worst enemy.
Stopping at the florist before heading to the office, I ordered eight dozen gerbera daisies in beautiful glass vases to be delivered to her office tomorrow.
“Would you like to include a card?” the saleswoman asked.
“No.” I gently smiled. “She’ll know who they’re from. I want them delivered one dozen every hour.”
“That’s really sweet. She’s going to love it.”
“I hope so.” I winked as I walked out of the shop.
I should have felt down about what happened earlier, for the things she said and the hurt and sadness that resided in her eyes. But I didn’t because I was going to take away her pain and sadness and give her a life of love and happiness. She deserved the world, and I was the one who was going to make sure she got it. I wasn’t worried about her rejecting me. She just needed time, like I did, and I would respect that and give her what she needed, even if it took days, weeks, months, or years. I wasn’t going anywhere, and when she was ready, she’d be back in my arms forever. Once I had her, I was never letting go.
