Chapter 189 Who is the Man in Her Heart?
“Opportunities can only be created and fought for by oneself!”
Cecelia never expected others to give her handouts. She believed that everything must be achieved
through her own hard work and perseverance.
After all, how could one expect a pie in the sky?
Remington chuckled. “You’re right! I agree with what you said.”
From now on, he would do everything he could to create and fight for opportunities!
“You can sit down, and let’s talk frankly and sincerely.”
Cecelia only hoped that he could keep a safe distance from her. She wouldn’t be able to think when he
was so close to her.
“Okay.”
Remington stepped back and sat down on the chair in front of her with the intention of listening
attentively. “Tell me. What do you want. to talk about?”
“I want to talk about some of my thoughts.”
“Okay, go ahead!”
What Remington wanted to know were her true thoughts.
Cecelia looked at the lemon water in her cup and slowly spoke, “You should know about my past
experiences. I am very disappointed in men, so I have never thought about getting married in this
lifetime. It was my negligence to register with you.”
If it weren’t for Madam Nelson’s private arrangements, she would never have registered marriage with
anyone.
“I understand you, but what I want to say is that they only represent some men, not all men. At least, I
am different from them. If we get married, you will find that I am a good man who takes care of his
family.’
Remington had investigated Cecelia and knew about her past. He knew she used to be with Sean.
However, Sean was heartless and betrayed her.
He also found out that her mother had fallen ill in the past. Her father not only didn’t save her mother
but also married Heather after her mother’s accident.
Such a father and a boyfriend had caused Cecelia to lose all hope in relationships, leaving her with
indelible scars.
“I know what kind of person you are, and I’m very clear about that.”
Remington’s persistence in “Lilian” made Cecelia believe that he would be a faithful and dedicated
man.
However, this couldn’t be a reason why she must get married!
Cecelia looked at his eyes seriously and asked, “Tell me. Why do women have to get married?”
“Women need men, and a family can bring women a sense of security. Marriage is a commitment
between two people and a mutual responsibility.’
Remington explained his understanding of marriage.
“What you said may be true for most people, but I think women can live well on their own. What can
men bring me?”
“Love? I don’t believe that this kind of fleeting thing can last a lifetime.’
“Money? I have my own hands, and I can earn as much as I want.”
“A house and car? I can buy them myself if I want them.”
“I can do housework, cook, and even have children on my own.”
“I can do everything that men can do, and even what they can’t. Why do I need men? To trouble
myself?”
After hearing her long speech, Remington understood and felt sorry for her. Her wounded heart still
couldn’t believe in men and love, and this might be the main reason why she rejected him.
“But life is so long. You can’t spend it alone, right?”
“In the future, I only want to live with my sons. That’s why I’ve never planned to get married. Besides,
there are many things want to do.”
Cecelia came back with a heart for revenge. The Linsey family was still standing, but her mother and
younger brother were missing and her daughter had not been found. How could she even consider a
romantic relationship?
Remington heard her words and realized she was indirectly rejecting him.
“Is that your excuse? In reality, you have another man in your heart,
Chapter 189 Who is the Man in Her Heart?
the one who called you and said he missed you. You have a son with him, don’t you?”
Remington’s tone was jealous, and he felt the urge to punch someone when he mentioned that man.
“To be honest, he’s just my senior. I do love a man, but it’s neither him nor you.
A young man held a special place in Cecelia’s heart, where the purest of emotions resided.

She remembered when she was eight years old, she was swimming in the pool at the Cloud Sea
Resort and accidentally drowned.
At that time, a young man in white clothes passed by and jumped into the pool to save her. He even
gave her artificial respiration.
In a daze, she vaguely saw the young man’s handsome face in the white light. He was like a pure
angel.
However, she still didn’t know who that young man was.
Later, she mistakenly thought the young man was Sean, so she agreed to date Sean, but it was later
verified that Sean was not him.
“Who is that man?”
Was there a third man in her heart?
The man she loved?
Remington’s face darkened to the extreme, and he felt like he wanted to cut open her heart and clean
it.
“That’s my privacy.”
Cecelia didn’t want to completely expose her inner world, but she wasn’t so heartless to him because
he was faithful in love.
“Remington, you helped me, and I will remember your kindness. To express my appreciation, I can tell
you that besides you, I have never been with another man or had a child with anyone else.”
“Really?”
Remington stood up excitedly, his eyes full of surprise and joy.
Lilian still belonged to him alone!
She had not been with another man nor had a child with anyone. else!

This news was like a strong heart medicine for him, making him feel invigorated from head to toe.
He had already felt like there was no hope, but now he felt like he had the determination to win.
After all, he had slept with Lilian, and Lilian had given birth to two sons for him. This was something
that no man could easily surpass. “Whether you believe it or not is up to you! I admit that there are
many men around me, but it’s not easy to win my heart!”
Cecelia had been hurt before, so she buried her emotions deep within, and she wouldn’t give men a
chance to hurt her easily!
It was an instinctive self-protection!
“I believe you!”
Remington believed her words. As long as she was willing to tell him, he would unconditionally believe
her.
He knew how deep she buried her emotions!
But he was secretly happy because she was choosy and guarded her heart, which gave him a chance
to get her back.
“I respect your view on marriage, and I won’t force you to remarry me since you don’t want to get
married. You can reject me, but I still have the right to pursue you. You can’t restrict me on this aspect!”
Cecelia sighed somewhat helplessly. “You are the most stubborn man I’ve ever met!”
“Thank you for the compliment!”
“How shameless you are! Was that a compliment?” Cecelia said angrily.
“How is it not? You have the most unique way of complimenting among all the women I’ve met.”
Remington looked at her with tender eyes, and Cecelia happened to look at him. When their eyes met,
it became quiet.
The storm outside was still raging, but they could talk harmoniously like friends, which was rare and
precious.
After drinking the lemon water, Cecelia got up to leave. Remington followed her and asked curiously,
“By the way, can you reveal who the man in your heart is?”
He had to fiqure it out!

Knowing himself and his enemy was the key to victory!
