Chapter 1738 Destined

Tamara looked at him in astonishment. This unexpected confession caught her off guard. Sebastian gazed at her deeply, his handsome face retaining its usual air of cold elegance. However, at this moment, it carried a trace of hidden affection, and his eyes held a tenderness that sent Tamara's heart racing. "Tamara, even without the dreams, I would still fall in love with you. The dreams merely let me know that we once shared a connection. It makes me even more unwilling to give you up," stated Sebastian. Tamara wanted to say something, but her heart was a mess. She didn't know how to express herself. She couldn't believe her ears. Her mind was swirling! What was with the sudden confession? The dreams obviously influenced him, yet he claimed that he would have loved her even without them. This was absurd! Tamara suddenly stood up, intending to leave, but Sebastian tightly grasped her hand. "Didn't you say earlier that someone told you to set everything aside and just focus on getting to know me better? Now's your chance." Tamara pursed her lips, her fingers curling lightly. She felt uneasy as her heart pounded like a drum, leaving her at a loss. This development was beyond her imagination. After struggling to find the right words, Tamara finally whispered, "You ... You can't do this ..." Sebastian's gaze was fixed on her. "Can't do what?" Seeing her long eyelashes quiver slightly, he asked, "Can I not like you?" Something exploded in Tamara's heart. Her mind buzzed, and she didn't have time to think this through. She turned around abruptly and looked at him. "That's not it!" Hearing his self-deprecating tone, she felt as if her soul was being torn apart. She didn't want to see him like this! As for why she didn't want to see him like this, she didn't know and dared not investigate. She could only rely on her instincts right now. Sebastian's eyes gleamed. "I can like you, can't I?" Her heart pounded. It was as if it were trying to break free from her chest and fall into his embrace. A faint blush appeared on Tamara's face, and she suddenly pulled her hand away. She felt flustered. "You ... give me some time to think about it." She needed time to think about their relationship and how they had reached this point. With that, she fled the scene. Sebastian watched her retreating figure with a darkened gaze. He lightly rubbed his fingers together, seemingly reminiscing about the feeling of holding her hand. That day had indeed gone beyond his expectations. He hadn't thought that the barrier would be broken so quickly. However, judging from her reaction, she seemed to have attributed everything to the dreams. If things continued like this, she would undoubtedly overthink things and become more reluctant to confront her feelings. They were destined for each other. They couldn't do anything but love each other. It was a powerful feeling. The feeling washed over him again and again, which was why he had lost control and confessed to her. But now it didn't seem like a bad thing. Under the night sky, the stars twinkled brightly. A gentle breeze brushed against Tamara, blowing away the warmth on her cheeks. She gradually calmed down. Yet her heart was still in shock. She had never expected that Sebastian would suddenly confess. He even said that it was not because of the dreams. But how could that be?
