Could you possibly lethave it?" "Well..." Normally, Edgar would have epitomized chivalry without a second thought, but this twas different.
He shook his head, apologetically saying, "Sorry, I can't do that." "What?" The girl didn't expect to be turned down. "Con, it's just a small favor for a lady. Are you really being that stingy?" Edgar just smiled, offering no defense. "Sorry." "Okay, then!" The girl bit her lip in frustration. "How about I offer you an extra 5 bucks for it, deal?" "Sorry." Edgar remained firm. "It's not about the money." He glanced over at Sherilyn standing a few steps away. "Really sorry, but maybe next time." "Sir, here you go." The vendor handed over a paper bag, and Edgar quickly took it, nodding at the visibly upset girl.

"Ouch!" Burned by the heat, Edgar quickly withdrew his hand, touching his earlobe in embarrassment. “It's quite hot, but delicious." Chapter 226 He gingerly picked up the roasted chestnuts again, peeling it open and offering it to Sherilyn.
"Open up." "Okay." Sherilyn lowered her head, taking it into her mouth.
"How is it?" Edgar looked eager.
"Mmm!" Sherilyn puffed her cheeks, giving a thumbs up. "It's really good." "Great, I'll peel another." Sherilyn was silent; she had seen everything. The girl had begged Edgar, but he hadn't given in.

Why should I prioritize someone else over my own?" My own? Sherilyn felt a sudden rush of warmth, her eyes brimming with tears.
Finally, someone had put her first.
"What's wrong?" Edgar saw her tearing up while eating roasted chestnuts. "Did it get stuck?” He remembered, roasted chestnuts could be quite choking.

Sherilyn took another bite of the roasted chestnuts. "Because it's delicious." 2/3 ריון Chapter 226
"Huh?" Edgar blinked in confusion but was met with Sherilyn'sradiant smile, and he understood. He could guess why.
"Sherilyn, there are always people I who will treat you well don't know if I'm the first, but I'm sure I won't be the last."
In that moment, Sherilyn felt a lump in her throat, almost unable to hold е back her tears. She took a deep breath, smiling broadly, and nodded vigorously. "Yes, I believe." No matter what the future held, she would never forget this moment, right here, right now.
