Chapter 351: 351: This is the Man You Like

“When a woman displays her feelings so obviously, it’s absurd for the man to say he doesn’t know. And given that he does know, has he ever made his stance clear to you?” Cindy Clarke asked.
That question hit Eleanor Ward right in the soul.
Eleanor was nearly in tears, “As I told you, I don’t know what you’re talking about! Are you even understanding what I’m saying?
Cindy seemed to ignore her words, turning to Ian Morris, “Ian Morris, I’m asking you, are you aware of Eleanor’s feelings for you?”
I….” Ian hesitated. “I….”
He did know, of course he did.
Eleanor’s circumstances were indeed tempting to him.
The reason he’d never declared his position was because he hadn’t made up his mind yet.
Eleanor was pampered into a willful little princess.
If he was to be with Eleanor, he’d have to tolerate her capricious nature.
After all, the current situation was a case of a strong lady and a weak gentleman.
In many things, he’d have to depend on Eleanor.
If he dated Eleanor, he’d almost feel as if he were marrying into her family.
The Wards had the final say in everything, which, as a man, made it hard for him keep his head up. His views were more traditional.
Strong men and weak women.
He wanted dictation power, he needed status, he didn’t want to be answering to his wife’s family.
With this in mind, he had hesitated all along.
Additionally, Ian’s attempts are based on Eleanor’s affection for him.
Eleanor wouldn’t give up, which is why he dared to keep her on the line. Before he found a better option, he wouldn’t readily respond to Eleanor.
Moreover, he didn’t dare to outright reject her.
When Eleanor was intimate with him, he’d play dumb.
It wasn’t until he saw Cindy Clarke yesterday that Ian Morris realized she was the one for him.
He already had feelings for Cindy in high school.
With such deep feelings, and that Cindy was a perfect match for him.
Both their families were in Nork City.
They were both from ordinary families, with no question of who was stronger or weaker.
If he had to state, his family should be somewhat stronger than Cindy’s.
Both of their abilities are more than sufficient.
He’s a doctor, Cindy is a famous food blogger.
Cindy’s income was high, the two together should be able to support the household without putting all the pressure on him.
Their corresponding conditions were just perfect.
Who could guess, that Cindy was entangled with Adrian Zhekova, and even has a son.
Perhaps Adrian didn’t care, he had money, but that didn’t mean he would marry Cindy.
Even though Cindy talked up her relationship with her boyfriend being based on the premise of marriage.
But Ian didn’t believe it.
He thought that Cindy was simply speaking pleasing words.
Especially after learning about her son, Ian became more determined in this belief.
“Aware or not… at this point, can’t you give a clear answer?” Cindy shook her head disappointingly.
She turned back to Eleanor, “So, this is the man you love.”
“Liking someone or not is just a matter of choice,” Cindy said coldly, “In the face of your affection and pursuit, if he likes you, he should just say it. If not, he should let you know as soon as possible. Is that so difficult? Does he have to keep you hanging like this?”
“A real man wouldn’t let a girl struggle and suffer like this without speaking out straightforward.”
“When I say my boyfriend is better than him, I’m not referring to career, family conditions or various external factors. Just one point – when my boyfriend loves me, he comes right out and says it. He doesn’t let me wait or guess..”
