He was assigned to such a remote place, and he still met her here. She was like his destiny; he was helpless.
At this moment, looking at her teary-eyed appearance, his heart softened. All his worries vanished, he only wanted to protect her, not to let her be sad, and to always be by her side.
He lowered his head slightly, “Mira, I’m blind in one eye, I’m not perfect anymore.”
She had once said that she liked perfect things, and she had also said that in her eyes, he was the most perfect person. Because of his perfection, she liked him.
He called her Mira. Hearing this name, she almost cried.
Mira suppressed the urge to cry and asked him, “So, is it because you went blind in one eye that you haven’t been meeting me?”
“Mm.”
After a long while, he finally responded softly.
She let out a sarcastic laugh and suddenly reached out to pull down his eye mask. A black hole appeared before her eyes. He hadn’t expected her to make this move and hurriedly covered it with his hand, but Mira held onto his hand, her gaze fixed intently on the black hole.
“What does this mean? Tell me, what does this mean?”
His body stiffened for a moment, and after a long time, he picked up the eye mask and put it back on.
“You are already a star now, with a bright future ahead.”
“Don’t talk to me about that. What star, what bright future? You just don’t want to take responsibility for me. You’re a person who doesn’t keep your word. You said you would marry me, you said you would give me a home.”
After learning that her parents were no longer around, she was initially dazed. At a young age, she couldn’t fully comprehend the pain of losing family. Later, when she realized they would never return, she hid away and cried her heart out. He found her and tried to comfort her.
“Brother Tony, I have no home anymore. I’ve become an orphan, no one wants me anymore.”
“It’s okay, I don’t have a home either. In the future, I will give you a home, alright? I want you, okay?”
He had clearly said he would give her a home, he had clearly said he would come back to marry her.
“Do you know? Without you, I would have died long ago. You gave me a new life. Only with you am I truly alive. Without you, I am just a walking corpse. With you, I have joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness.”
Tony took off his eye mask, lifting her chin so she would look at his face.
“Look closely, this eye you have to face is not just for a day or two, nor a year or two. You have to face it for a lifetime!”
Mira smiled, “So what if one eye is blind? Even if both eyes are blind, it doesn’t matter. If you have no eyes, I will be your eyes.”
His body stiffened, and the hand that held her chin trembled slightly. After an unknown amount of time, he suddenly closed his eyes and pulled her into his embrace tightly.
He held her close, burying his chin in her neck, deeply inhaling her scent.
“Mira.” He called her softly.
“Mira, Mira.” Again and again, apart from calling her this, he could do nothing else.
Mira nestled in his arms. She had grown up; she could be with the man she loved for a long time. He called her Mira, and she was his Mira.
She felt very happy, her heart overflowing with joy.
Her nose felt sour, and she choked up, continuously nodding her head.
“I will give you a home, and I won’t let you be homeless again. My promise comes so late, can you forgive me?”
“Mm.”
“I won’t leave you again. I will always protect you, so don’t be afraid.”
“Mm.”
“I love you very much, do you know?”
Tears streamed down her face, “Now I know.”
“When you get better, I will take you home.”
“Okay.”
At the height of the rumors between Mira and Jones Calvin, Mira posted a photo of her marriage certificate on Instagram, captioning it: “My hero has finally returned to marry me.”
The moment the photo of the marriage certificate was posted, it was like dropping a bomb into a pot of boiling oil, causing fans to erupt in excitement.
Everyone examined the male figure on the marriage certificate, a completely unfamiliar face, clearly not someone from the entertainment industry. In no time, various factions began to dig into the mysterious identity of this person.
“Who is this guy? And he’s wearing an eye patch; could he be blind?”
“He is handsome, but does Mira have a problem with her taste? Why choose a disabled person?”
Amidst the various discussions, someone quickly uncovered the identity of this mysterious man.
“Tony Brown, a graduate of the People’s Armed Police Force Academy of America, has participated in anti-terrorism operations in Tibet, disaster relief , and peacekeeping in Libya. He has been awarded third-class merit three times and first-class merit three times, and holds the rank of captain. This is Captain Tony Brown’s profile; such a national hero deserves any female celebrity.”
