I will Love You Forever - Chapter 127

Ayla’s eyes widened. She looked at Gerard then at the phone in her hand. How could she have forgotten such an important occasion?

All of a sudden, she wasn’t interested in the match again and couldn’t even find the words to say.

The other day she went out to look for a gift for him, she couldn’t find anything suitable and ended up not getting anything and as a result of that, she forgot about today.

She pursed her lips and looked at Gerard with puppy eyes but unfortunately, he wasn’t looking at her but rather at the TV screen.

She moved closer to him but he didn’t turn around at all and pretended as though she wasn’t there.

She moved closer again but he didn’t seem affected at all. Was this payback time?

Ayla sighed and made a teary face. She didn’t know what to do and to make matters worse, she gave all her attention to the match instead of him.

‘Payback is indeed a bi*ch’ she sighed at the thought of it and her shoulders dropped.

‘What do I do?’ she wondered then remembered what the devil in her mind would always tell her in cases like this.

‘Don’t think, just act.’ she pursed her lips and hesitated for a second before reaching out her hands to hold him.

Gerard’s brow twitched when he felt her tiny hands on his. They were warm and soft and he almost wanted to tell her he had forgiven her already.

How could something as small as a touch cause one to forget about past issues?

He shook his head unwilling to give in easily but then, the sweet sound of her melodious voice filled his ears and it became harder for him to hold a grudge.

“Gerard… I’m sorry.” she moved closer to him until there was no space between both of them again.

Gerard said nothing and maintained his indifferent expression. His eyes were glued to the TV but his brain was running haywire.

Ayla placed her head on his shoulder and slipped her arms around his waist. “I’m sorry…”

He couldn’t continue to remain silent and decided to say something that would help his situation but it only made it worse.

“And why should I believe you?” he asked with a straight face, not looking at her but the TV.

Ayla didn’t hesitate at all and just blurted out, “Because I’m your wife, your little kitten.” she didn’t like to be called a kitten but for Gerard, she would do anything.

Hearing the word ‘wife’ from her mouth made Gerard speechless. He couldn’t continue to be angry at his ‘wife’ and remembering that he had an unfinished task today, he couldn’t help but fall for her charm.

“Are you seducing me now, Wife?” he asked looking at her with a straight face.

Ayla pursed her lips and said nothing. Gerard turned around but before he could say anything else, she leaned in his ear and whispered, “What if I am?”

Gerard couldn’t take it anymore. He closed his eyes and pinched the space between his brow. His little wife was turning into a seductress.

Ayla’s lip curved upwards seeing him in that state. She knew he wasn’t going to stay angry at her for a long time but she still felt the need to say sorry.

“I’m sorry…” she whispered and placed her chin on his shoulder.

Gerard sighed and looked at her, “Get dressed, we’re going somewhere.”

Ayla smiled brightly and got up from the couch without caring that the match was still ongoing.

“Where are we going?” she wanted to know so she could know how to dress but unfortunately, Gerard wouldn’t tell her.

“There is a dress on the bed in your room.” was his response and she smiled brightly.

Like a child, she dashed to her room and Gerard could not help but smile at her behaviour. He got up and went to his room as well.

This was the Jarek mansion and here, they had different rooms. Gerard couldn’t wait to make it change. He didn’t intend to stay in the Jarek mansion anyways.

Ayla went to the bathroom and took a shower before heading out. She could still see that the sun was slightly up and didn’t want him walking under the sun because he was trying to do something for her.

She wore the red dress on her bed with the beautiful silver shoes that were in a box on the bed.

She couldn’t help but smile at his thoughtfulness. Everyone he bought was so beautiful that it made her eyes well up.

A few years ago, she never imagined that she would be here, going to college, owning a mall thanks to Gerard and also finding a man that loves her genuinely. Or was it the other way around? He was the one who found her.

She smiled and cleaned her eyes. “Phew Ayla, I can’t believe you’re still a cry baby,” she whispered to herself as she saw her image in the mirror.

She took the silver purse on the bed and with her hair laid down, she walked out of the room.

Gerard was already standing outside in a black tuxedo. He looked more charismatic than ever and didn’t even notice that Ayla was already coming until he turned around and saw her descending from the stairs.

The staff that stood nearby were struck dumb and couldn’t help but gawk at her beauty. They were used to Gerard dressing up well but this was the first time they were seeing Ayla on a red dress and she didn’t even put any effort yet she looked stunning.

Gerard looked up and didn’t say a word even after she came so close to him. It felt as though he was meeting her for the first time again.

He stared at her, lost in the beautiful mini galaxy in those violet eyes. Her skiing was as radiant as the sun and beautiful like the moon. It was funny how she made up the entire solar system, more like she made up his solar system. ‘She is my world.’

Ayla was surprised to see him so stunning but this wasn’t too new to her because he looked elegant every day.

“You look beautiful.” his words were calm and gentle like the sea. She couldn’t help but feel timid by his compliment.

“Thank you.” she smiled and he curved his elbow allowing her to intertwine her arm with his.

The entire staff couldn’t help but look at them with love and happiness in their hearts. They couldn’t help but stare at the couple as they walked away.

The night was dark and the moon was not in sight. ‘Seems she got angry.’ Vienna chuckled.

They got to the rooftop of a seven-star hotel where everything was arranged. This was the perfect spot for dinner. The view from the top just made everything perfect and Ayla could see so many lights from houses in different parts of the city.

Although the moon wasn’t shinning, the lights from the candles placed all around the rails was beautiful.

There were candles of different colours and in the middle was a table for two. There was a group of people playing the violin and cello. It was perfect.

Ayla turned to look at Gerard and smiled genuinely happy by this preparation.

He smiled slightly and led her to their table. She was so happy with everything but at the same time, she was sad that she didn’t prepare anything for him.

Gerard pulled the chair for her but Ayla didn’t sit. He looked at her confused but she made a request.

“May I play the piano?”

Gerard was surprised by this request of hers. There was indeed a piano there but he had planned to play it for her. It seems everything is working well for him.

“Why don’t we eat first?” he asked with a warm smile and she nodded. He had something planned and it was hidden behind the keys of the piano but he wanted it to be the last surprise she gets for today.

Playing the piano herself would make that plan more beautiful but for now, he wanted to fill her stomach first.

She nodded and sat. There was so much food that she didn’t even know which to choose from.

“Try this.” he placed the plate of food in front of her and she was grateful.

Gerard served himself and Ayla could not help but stare at him. ‘He’s so perfect that I doubt if I’m good enough. In our next life, will he find me as he did in this life? Even if he doesn’t, I’ll travel to the end of time to find him. And in that life, I’ll remember every single Valentine’s day.’

Gerard looked up at her confused as to why she wasn’t eating. Unfortunately, he didn’t hear her thoughts this time around.

She smiled and began to eat happy that of all the people in this world, he chose her.
