Chapter 1076: Those Two Would Never Give The Slightest Bit Of Leeway To Any Male
From the first time he laid eyes on Gu Mengmeng, Barete affirmed that she was the female for him.
That time, Elvis had her wrapped up in a large piece of animal skin and he didn’t get a glimpse of her face. He just felt that her scent was especially fragrant, and different from other females.
The first time he met her, she had slapped a male…
An action like that was very common in the Beast World. Males would not feel aggrieved at being hit, but would instead worry if their female’s hand felt pain.
Even so, he was deeply attracted.
That was because she had hit the guy—not for doing something bad, but for expressing his interest after getting a whiff of her scent.
In general, females would feel vain and proud when such things happened. Females might give a token reprimand here and there, but to show true rage like Gu Mengmeng did—that had never happened before.
Perhaps, that one slap had cleanly shattered his heart’s defenses. He was unable to contain his curiosity about what was she doing? What was she thinking? What would she do next…
Thereafter, her responses had once and again astonished him. His eyes never left her again.
In this lifetime, the craziest thing he had ever done was to help her escape?
And the most honorable thing he had accomplished was to go up the Platform of the Deity’s Punishment for her.
But since knowing she was the Messenger of the Beast Deity, Barete was well aware that he would never have a chance with her in this lifetime.
He was not good enough for her, wasn’t he?
Thereafter, she made Elvis her partner. Even someone like Lea finally made the cut only after a tremendous amount of effort.
He could see everything about her very clearly. He understood the situation better than anyone else. Her heart was already fully occupied by Elvis and Lea. No one else could come between them.
Those two would never give the slightest bit of leeway to any male.
If he wished to remain by Gu Mengmeng’s side, the only way was to bury his love deep inside his heart to let it fester and rot.
And from goodness-knows when, the name Gu Mengmeng had become everything to Barete. Now that things have come to this stage, what was this talk about him partnering with other females? The only female he wanted would never accept him, right?
It would already be very good if he had the chance to protect her.
If he gave her his life, it would mean he belonged to her?
This belonging was already a blessing.
He dared not wish for more.
Gu Mengmeng didn’t know so many thoughts were going through Barete’s mind. She just tilted her head and said, “I have always wanted to ask you about something.”
Barete drew himself back to the present and looked at Gu Mengmeng, waiting for her next words.
Gu Mengmeng said, “How did Oakley convince you and Auretin? You… don’t look like someone who will leave me behind without any reason.”
His heart stirred.
He had done a traitorous thing and yet, she was still willing to believe he would never leave her without good reason.
Taking a deep breath, Barete explained. “Oakley told me the whole story and I pitied Bloom and him. That’s why I agreed to his plan.”
Barete didn’t reveal that Oakley’s sacrifice for his deep love had moved him. His own love would never come to fruition, but he was happy to help out another pair of lovers.
Moreover, he knew very well that no matter what Oakley had planned, no one in this world could harm Gu Mengmeng.
This was the main reason why he had dared to agree to Oakley’s plan.
But he could not reveal that to Gu Mengmeng.
