Love Unbreakable - Chapter 1079

Chapter 1079:

Stefan’s aim was to soothe Raegan’s anxiety, but once she consented to listen, he began to feel nervous himself. This was new for him, having been single for 30 years and never before feeling this strongly.

“Though my family background isn’t the best, I’ve made a point to distance myself from it. In the future, I promise no bad habits, no infidelity. I’ll love only you. If we start a family, I’ll commit fully to it and strive to be a good father. Regarding children, if you decide against having more, Janey, Juan, and Westin will be the only kids in my life.”

Juan and Westin were the names Raegan had chosen for her unborn babies.

Raegan simply wanted her children to lead carefree and simple lives.

Honestly, Stefan’s declaration was touching. He was prepared to forego having biological children and instead embrace her three as his own. Such dedication was rare.

But Raegan was hesitant to open her heart to love again. She had often heard that love led to heartache. She had faced many challenges and, despite her efforts, had yet to see a favorable outcome.

Suddenly, Raegan thought of Nicole who had suffered immensely because of the so-called love, her spirit crushed and seemingly irreparable.

Yet now, having broken free, Nicole appeared to be thriving.

Raegan then considered her three children. She believed she could raise them well, yet she worried about the absence of a father figure and its possible effect on their development.

Noticing Raegan’s pensive look, Stefan reassured her, “Raegan, there’s no need to rush your response. We can address our current challenges first and proceed at a comfortable pace. Even if you decide against it, I’ll understand.”

Hearing this made Raegan feel increasingly self-conscious. “Stefan, my life is far from ordinary. I fear I might only end up disappointing you…” she confessed.

Though Stefan was undeniably noble, Raegan doubted her ability to reciprocate his romantic feelings. For her, Stefan had always been like a brother, akin to Erick. Their bond felt familial to her. She questioned whether their relationship could evolve beyond this without causing complications.

Responding now would be premature and irresponsible. Thus, she found herself deeply conflicted.

Stefan smiled warmly, “Raegan, the choice is mine. You shouldn’t feel any pressure. It’s my decision to pursue you, and I am prepared to handle the outcomes of my actions. Please, don’t feel obliged. I have no intention of masquerading as a husband just to be close to you. That would be contemptible. My wish is to convey my feelings transparently and with integrity. But, you always have the freedom to withdraw.”

Anyone listening to this conversation would undoubtedly be touched.

It wasn’t just about romantic interest. It was admiration for Stefan’s forthrightness.

Confronted with such sincerity, Raegan felt undeserving of his affection. After a moment of reflection, she responded, “Stefan, I truly value your sentiments…”

This kind of start usually signals a rejection.

Stefan’s expression darkened slightly. He hadn’t pressed for an immediate response because he feared a swift rejection. That would leave him without even the consolation of unrequited love.

“I’ll think about what you said,” Raegan told him.

Stefan was caught off guard, not expecting her to consider his proposal.

Raegan admitted to herself that she didn’t dislike Stefan. If she were to consider starting a new family, Stefan would indeed be an excellent partner. Moreover, she aspired to be a better person, someone who could effectively guide her children. Having a stable, supportive partner like Stefan would undoubtedly simplify her life.

Previously, when she got only Janey in her life, Raegan thought she could handle it alone. Now, with two more children on the way, her perspective had shifted. Stefan was emotionally mature, though he tended to avoid grandiose declarations.

After a pause, Stefan managed to say, “Thank you, Raegan.”
