goodbye my sweetheart

air.

■91■

Yes, they didn't forget that dinner with Kol, Katherine stood by and waited for them to eat and drink with a plate.And he was one of the culprits.

Stefan reached out to take her hand, but the dining table was too long and she was as far away as the sky.

No matter how he looked at her, she didn't make any eye contact with him. She concentrated on eating the dishes on the plate, as if she was eating for the first time in her life.

He tore off the napkin and threw it on the table, suddenly very angry with himself, he racked his brains for this romantic dinner, even the tablecloths and candlesticks were chosen by him, in order not to remind her of the silver knife she used when she hurt herself , he changed all the tableware into gold...But the secret is that he appointed a long dining table for the so-called classical style, and he paid the price of distance for this, and he also wanted to go directly to sit She was beside her, but her cold attitude and stubborn resistance made him shy away.

In the end, he was still afraid of her. As long as he loved her, she was a magic weapon, and even the breath she exhaled had the sharpness of a needle.

"Katherine."

Katherine raised her head with a dazed and innocent face, but she smiled coldly in her heart: "Very well, now you won't recognize the wrong person."

"I…" Stefan wanted to say: I'm sorry.

But the timidity in his heart made him unable to speak.

His heart is only made of flesh, and he will be afraid of pain and injury.

She glanced at the napkin he dropped on the table, and asked softly, "I've finished eating, I can go, what about you?"

He also had no choice but to stand up and said depressedly, "Let's go."

They are like two people scrambling for time to rush to work, leaving behind a table full of delicacies and romance.

His original plan was to eat, drink, dance, express his love, and kiss her... But Katherine is his natural nemesis, she can easily destroy everything, she is always out of his control, as long as things touch her, It will go off the rails and fly out of his control.

On the way back, Katherine was as silent as a shadow, quietly following Stefan, getting in and out of the car with him quietly, she secretly glanced at Stefan who was full of resentment and burst out, she couldn't help but A burst of coolness: Tsk, you have a day too, kid!

He also looked at her secretly, looking at her who seemed silent and docile, but couldn't hide the smirk on the corners of his eyes and brows.

It seemed like she was happy to ruin a good evening.

Why did she not appreciate what he did for her.

How can I make her love him again?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help feeling flustered.

To be honest, he still can't understand why Katherine fell in love with him more than 100 years ago.

Maybe he had only one chance to fall in love with her, but he screwed it up.

His heart is getting more and more bottomless.

Back to the huge mansion, their "home".She carefully removed the necklace around her neck and handed it to Stefan.

"What do you mean?" He took the necklace, confused.

"Return the props, return the property to the original owner? Whatever you want to understand, it means that." She pushed open the bathroom door and walked in.

Stefan held the necklace in his hand, still not knowing why.

He hypnotized her again and took her to a villa by the sea.

When she opened her eyes, she was standing on the edge of the cliff where the stormy waves hit the shore, and the tiny water droplets splashed on her face with the wind, bringing a fresh feeling and the unique breath of the ocean, and she was a little moved.

What a magnificent and beautiful sea.

"You like it here don't you?" Stefan asked.

"Stefan, can you stop hypnotizing me again?"

"I just wanted to surprise you with something."

"No no no, don't be surprised, Stefan," she said, placing her hand on the spot where her heart was. "The one thing I'm going to do for the rest of my life is keep it quiet."

"As you wish."

Next, things get weird between them.

Stefan keeps a fax machine on Katherine's bedside table, and he always faxes her the itinerary ahead of time, like they're both busy people with a really big business meeting.

She looked at the itinerary: breakfast—lunch—dinner—

Katherine was amused and annoyed, Stefan was so cunning, it was like no itinerary.She crumpled the fax paper, she wanted to reason with him, she wanted to ask him what he meant.

After searching around the seaside villa, Stefan was found.

He's in the garage, planing a big piece of wood, he's wearing an old, dirty shirt that's unbuttoned, his nice, strong chest and abs are on display, his hair is hanging down his forehead and hanging over his brow, he's focused The man held a plane and pushed it over the wood, and the long curls of shavings fell to the ground, exuding the unique aroma of wood.

Katherine was surprised by Stefan who worked hard like this, but more admiration and amazement: now he is finally no longer that eccentric ten thousand year high school student, at the moment he looks full of masculinity.

The most typical image of a man in Katherine's mind is her father. He can do everything, he can do everything, he knows how to farm, log, tame wild horses, and hunt grizzly bears... Bulgarian men in that era were like this, never Despising manual labor, even aristocrats have to be able to do everything to be respected.

Katherine stared blankly at Stefan.

The subtle respect and appreciation in her eyes lifted Stefan's spirits. Wasn't her love and appreciation what he wanted all his life?

He suddenly looked up at her with burning eyes.

She was caught by him, and she couldn't help blushing, "Uh--I...I..."

He grinned, his eyes deepened, and he thought sarcastically: Hey, she can't even tell a lie, that's a skill she was born with.

The thick and complex emotions in his eyes made her wince, and she said, "I'm sorry to bother you, I'm leaving now."

She fled away as if flying.

He looked at her disappearing back, smiled wryly and said to the air: "Katherine, you know, I'm making a small boat, which belongs to us. How I wish you could accompany me to finish it."

■93■

A few days later, he took her to the warehouse, where there was a brand new white boat.

It turned out that Stefan was working on this boat these days in the garage, Katherine secretly admired.But her pride prevented her from seeing the truth. There are two initials engraved on this boat: SK.

Stefan & Katherine.

Stefan took the oars and put them in the boat. He glanced at her, a little sweet and a little bitter: he could finally fulfill one of her wishes.

"What are you looking at me for? What the hell are you thinking?" Katherine brushed her long curly hair on her shoulders, pointed to some huge iron nails on the table and said, "Could it be that you want to nail me to the bow of the boat? I'm not going to bring luck. So, Stefan, don't even think about it."

"Why do you think I'm going to hurt you?"

"Yes, you won't hurt me, there is more peace between us than peace," she sneered.

He was so devastated that he could no longer speak.

But in the end, they still went to sea.

On the blue sea, she and Stefan were in this white boat.

She was a little nervous.

She didn't know where Stefan was taking her, she was terrified by his sullen face.

Is he going to punish her?

She didn't dare to ask, for fear that the answer would turn into hurt again.

Is it some kind of ceremony for him to build a boat so solemnly?

And she, was she part of the ceremony?

Is she still a sacrifice just like it was hundreds of years ago?

She was immersed in her own imagination, she looked at the blue water, they are now very, very far away from the coast, with her current body, it is absolutely impossible for her to swim ashore, there is no chance of jumping into the sea to escape, besides, There is also the possibility of encountering sharks, which will tear her to pieces, but even so, she cannot die, as Esther said, she must live to endure all pain.

She was terrified by her own imagination, even though the sun was scorching, she felt extremely cold.

Stefan held the oar and rowed slowly, looking at her with complicated eyes.

He noticed her nervousness, although she tried her best to hide it, but her raised back, hunched shoulders, one hand holding the other's wrist... all these declared her nervousness and uneasiness.

The way she acted, the way she looked made him very displeased, as if she wasn't dealing with Stefan, but Klaus or Kol.

Has it become like this between them?But even so, he couldn't give up! ! !

He stopped the boat, fixed the oars, reached out and took her wrist.

His strong palm pushed her fear to the highest moment.

"No need, I'll take it off for you myself!" She stood up abruptly, angrily took off the sunlight bracelet and threw it at his feet.

She was instantly sunburned by the scorching sun at sea.

Stefan quickly hugged her, shielded her from the sun with his body, grabbed her sunburned hand, picked up the bracelet on the deck and put it on her again, "What are you crazy about?"

she was
