"What about you? Are you leaving now?"
"I'm not leaving," he said, looking at Josie Quinn as he stated his decision. "From now on, I'm staying by your side. Wherever you go, I'll go."
This wasn't an impulsive decision.
During the long journey to find her, he had already thought it through very clearly.
But she was like the wind, never stopping for anyone.
If she wouldn't stop for him, then he would be the one to follow in her footsteps.
In this cruel wasteland, besides the woman before him, he, Cole, had long since lost anything worth caring about or holding onto.
Josie Quinn was slightly taken aback, meeting Cole's eyes, which were filled with sincerity.
This sudden, weighty promise felt like too much for her to bear.
She lowered her gaze, avoiding his overly intense stare. "Cole, I can't give you what you want."
"Do you know what I want?" He chuckled. "What I want is to stay by your side."
