My Billionaire Ex-Husband Chase Me Back - Chapter 505

Chapter 505: Sean Spencer’s Confession
After clearing her perfectly healthy throat, Harper calmly said, “If you’re concerned about entering a woman’s bedroom, you can leave the door open.” She smiled at him, knowing he was a gentleman.

Finally, Sean stepped inside, leaving the door open behind him.

Harper smiled faintly while sitting and started asking him questions when he saw him sitting opposite.

“Sean, I’m sorry to ask. Have you told your mother about me?” she asked while hiding her joyful expression.

Harper clenched her fist, anticipating what he wanted to say.

Sean took a deep breath before he told her about his mother, who started bombarding him with questions about arranged marriage — a topic he always avoids, but this time, he couldn’t.

He had no choice but to admit that he already had a woman he was interested in.

“That time you appeared in my mind, Harper. And I remember you telling me that if my parents wanted to arrange a marriage for me, you would want me to consider you, right?” He asked.

Harper nodded shyly, feeling her face getting warm.

Sean smiled at her as he continued, “You are the only single woman I know outside of my colleagues in the military. So, Yes. I’ve told them about you.”

Harper’s heart raced a mile per second when she heard Sean’s sentence. This was the most extensive conversation she had ever heard him speak since she had known him. His words instantly made her heart swell; she felt like she was about to descend into nirvana. Finally, what she dreamed of came true.

“I’m sorry, Harper. If I got you involved with my family before asking your permission. I feel bad—”

“No, Sean. I don’t mind,” Harper hurriedly corrected him. “I’m glad you think about me and have the courage to tell them about me.”

Sean wanted to say something, but seeing how happy she was, he stopped and only smiled back at her.

“I’m only nervous about meeting your mother. That’s why we need to talk about this, Sean,” her eyes beamed as she saw him. “I don’t want your mother to be disappointed the first time she meets me.”

Sean shook his head, a small smile still on his lips as he said, “Harper, my mother no longer cares who I bring to meet her. She only cares that the one I bring is a woman, not a man.”

Harper stifled a laugh upon hearing his words.

“So they thought you liked a man?” she asked.

“Yes. My parents and Grandpa always tease me like that. That’s why, when I said I have a woman interested in, my mother was so happy and asked me to introduce you immediately…”

“Thank you, Sean, for remembering me.”

Sean slightly frowned at her words.

“You don’t have to thank me, Harper. I already set my mind to move on from my past and give myself a chance to open a new page. And, of course, I chose you. You will be on my new page. So, meeting my mother is the beginning of my new page. I hope you don’t mind if I planned this without telling you beforehand.”

Sean smiled awkwardly for a moment after hearing his own words.

“I’m waiting for you to come here because I’m a man who can’t talk on the phone about something like this. I need to meet you in person,” he continued.

No words can describe how Harper feels right now after hearing Sean’s sincere confession. She could only squeeze her hand tightly while holding back her tears, touched by happiness.

“I understand, Sean,” Harper softly and calmly said, clearly enough for Sean to hear.

“Harper, I need to tell you something,” Sean said.

Harper nodded, although she was worried about what he wanted to say. His expression slowly changed—a worried look flashed in his eyes.

“Honestly, I don’t have any feelings for you yet. But please give me time. Falling for you might not be fast, but I promise to do the best things a man can do for his woman. And I promise you, from now on, no other women on my mind, only you,” Sean confessed.

His confession made Harper want to embrace him, but she held back. She could only say, “Sean, don’t worry about that. I know. I understand.”

Harper was touched that this man would be open and honest about his feelings. She knew their relationship had started strangely, so she didn’t expect him to love her immediately. She would be confused and suspicious if Sean suddenly fell for her because she knew his story with Bella so well.

“So you don’t mind starting with me, even though I do not love you now?” Sean asked, surprised to see how calm she was. There was no disappointment flashing through her eyes.

“Hmm, of course, I don’t mind,” Harper said. “Sean, I’m no longer a teenager with unstable emotions. I will pretend this is an arranged marriage set up by our parents.” She smiled tenderly at him, causing Sean to smile, too.

“And, Sean, just to let you know, I’m so happy you are involving me in your new page.” Her voice cracked, unable to contain the happiness overflowing in her chest. “You know, I have already imagined this for a long time since I met you, right?”

Sean was unable to respond to her words; he just nodded. He started to worry about seeing her cry, even though he knew it was not a miserable cry but a joyful kind of tear.

“And I don’t want to disappoint your mother either,” Harper said, wiping her cheeks. “Sean, I want to impress her. Can you tell me about your mother?”

“I told you she would like you, Harper. You don’t have to pretend to be anyone else but yourself. My mother is a senior psychologist in our hospital, so just by smiling, she will know whether you are sincere or not. So, just be yourself. I know you are a kind woman. That’s why I’m daring to bring you to meet her.”

Harper couldn’t hide her surprise upon hearing this, but she nodded and agreed with Sean. She just needed to be herself to meet her future mother-in-law.

“Alright, anything else you want to ask?”

“Can you not leave me alone? I want to know you more, Sean, or you need to know me better, too, right?”

“Ok. Let’s spend this day getting to know each other before meeting my mother,” Sean smiled back at her. She was indeed correct. Even though he had already read her entire profile, he needed to stay here to make things less awkward.
