Chapter 892:
“I am worried she will get seriously sick p>
Brenna acknowledged his concern with a thoughtful nod. “I understand.” She shifted her attention to Kenny and Rosanna. “Why don’t you just date and not get married, just like Ethan and I p>
Kenny and Rosanna exchanged a look. Rosanna seemed disappointed, while Kenny appeared anxious. Their expressions made it clear that they were dissatisfied with Brenna’s suggestion.
With a hesitant voice, Rosanna looked at Kenny. “What if we just go and register our marriage in secret p>
Kenny replied, “You are a pilot in the military. You will need approval from your superiors to get married. Could we really keep something like that hidden p>
A sigh slipped out as Rosanna’s patience ran thin. Her mood grew heavier. “Well, then, what’s your plan p>
Kenny let out a weary breath. “Let’s just do what Brenna suggests. We’ll date for a while and revisit the marriage question later p>

The refusal hit Ethan hard, and his expression turned somber. He could not shake the feeling that Brenna’s answer meant she did not love him deeply enough.

A heavy silence settled over him as he looked at Brenna with a hurt gaze.
Brenna caught his look and couldn’t help but laugh. “Come on, don’t look at me like that p>
Ethan’s fingers slid gently along hers as he held her hand. “Please, don’t meet the man your mother wants to introduce to you. If he turns out better than me, I won’t take it well p>
“You don’t have to worry about that. Since I’m in a relationship with you, I won’t date anyone else. Just stop overthinking this.” Brenna patted his hand, her voice light but firm.
The assurance in her tone seemed to lift Ethan’s spirits. “I believe you p>
