Chapter 1359 Am | Sincere Enough? Elisa could not deny that his words made sense.
Still, she replied coldly, "I have to deal with many matters." In other words, she indicated she had no time to waste on his nonsense.
Of course, Eden understood what she meant.
Elisa is calm in the face of trouble. She is brave and resourceful in dealing with various matters. However, she is still prone to emotions and can be impatient. She seems no different from other women.
Even so, she is not as gentle or submissive as them.
"Since you're busy, | won't delay your time. My purpose is quite simple. | admire you, Ms. Benett. If you enter a relationship with me, | will protect you from that killer and ensure your safety for the rest of your life. Moreover, you will live comfortably and never worry about anything." Eden gave a long sigh and pretended to appear hurt.

Elisa felt like she had heard the funniest joke and scoffed. "You won't even show your face, yet you dare to ask me out?" She deliberately said those words.
People hide behind masks because they are too ashamed to show their faces.
Apart from disfigurement, a man has no excuse to wear a mask.
Perhaps...
He might have said those words to test me.
Still, no matter his reason, | will never be with a man whose face | have never seen, even if it is to find out who tried to kill me! Eden remained silent after her retort.
Elisa smirked, but Eden suddenly did something unexpected.
She froze as she watched him slowly raise his hand and place it on his mask.
Eden took off his mask without hesitation as she was still in doubt.
The mask lifted and revealed a pair of devious but charming eyes. His skin was fair and flawless, and he had a tall nose bridge.
Every feature on his face seemed to be carved by a master sculptor and looked like a perfect work of art.
"Ms. Benett, am | sincere enough?" Seeing Elisa's stunned expression, Eden's lips gradually curved into a smile.
However, his smile did not meet his eyes. His gaze remained mysterious and unfathomable.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmElisa sensed a dangerous aura from Eden.
Eden was not only unusually handsome. He even made a daring proposal and knew who wanted to kill Elisa.
It meant he was more influential than he revealed. Moreover, he didn't do all this to go out with her.
Before Elisa could answer his question, he already went to her and placed his hand beside her.
Elisa's gaze turned cold. Eden did not give her a chance to move but kept coming closer, surrounding her with his cold and intimidating aura. Although Elisa felt uncomfortable, she willed herself to remain still and glared at him. "We're here to talk. You have better keep your distance.” Eden narrowed his eyes and replied provocatively, "What if | refuse?" Elisa keenly sensed how dangerous he was.
Still, she chuckled and looked into his eyes, refusing to back down. "You can try if you dare.” "How would | bear to go against you? Elisa, if you stay with me, | will always protect you. Otherwise, you will eventually die in that person's hand!" Eden showed no intention of moving away. He remained half a meter away from Elisa.
Elisa felt uncomfortable being so close to such an intimidating stranger. She could not stand it anymore and stood up to move to the side.
"It's their problem whether they can kill me. | will never be with you over this. Scram!"
