NovelOnlineChapter 1951
The next morning, Ellen got out of bed and was startled to see a figure awaiting her outside the door. “Why did you get up so early
in the morning?” “Wanna go jogging with me?” Jared invited her.
As it happened, Ellen also wanted to exercise a bit. She replied with a nod, “Okay! Givea minute while | get changed.” She
changed into sportswear before changing into a pair of sports shoes as they went out.
Then, she greeted the morning sun with the man, breathing the fresh air on the hillside while jogging along a perfect jogging trail
that stretched to the hilltop.
Shrouded in a thin layer of mist, the Central Business District nearby looked amazingly beautiful from here. Those high-rise
buildings look just like geometrical figures from here, thought Ellen with wonder as she jogged along the trail.
The man in front of her jogged while matching. her pace. The morning sun cast a gentle glow on her face, making her look
delicately attractive with a refreshing charm like morning dew.

As expected, Ellen’s stamina wasn’t up to it. After jogging less than 200 yards, she had to slow down and walk instead. Panting
slightly, she said with a smile, ‘I can’t run anymore.”
Jared stopped jogging, too, he walked with her at a strolling pace. “Let's walk, then! We'll walk to the top of the hill before coming
down.”
Only then did Ellen get a picture of what the super-rich was like. Even such a big jogging facility is privately owned, she thought.
After climbing all the way to the top of the hill, she was already out of breath, but she felt very fulfilled. “Wow! It's so beautiful!”
she said with a sigh.
Jared quietly stepped behind her. Before she realized what was happening, an arm gently wrapped itself around her waist. He
leaned forward and rested his attractive chin lightly on her shoulder, asking, “You like it?”
Ellen’s body tensed up for a moment before she quietly relaxed. She replied with a nod, “Uh-huh, | like it.”
“Then, you should keep on staying at my house. | can chere and enjoy the scenery with you every day,” the man pleaded
under his breath.
Ellen could hear her heart thump. Jared's words were no different from a profession of love; however, having been through so
many things, she was no longer impatient for an outcome. Gazing into the distance, she replied, “Let's wait until I've settled down
before we talk about this, okay?”
Jared was also a little annoyed with himself for pushing her too hard. She’s just been through so many things. Can't | wait until her
life becomes more peaceful before going out with her?
They stayed on the hill for a while. As it was too windy, Jared then led her down the hill for fear that she might catch a cold.
He drove her out for breakfast. He usually stayed alone and didn't like to have servants at home, so he normally ate out for
breakfast. However, he wondered if he should get a couple of servants for Ellen so that she could have tasty and nutritious meals
while staying at home. “My time's all yours today. What would you like to do?” he asked her.
Ellen pondered for a moment before suggesting, “Would you like to go to the movies with me, then?” Jared smiled. “Of course.”
Meanwhile, Connor and Olivia went to the real estate agent together to sign the house purchase and sale agreement. The full

outstanding loan and get back the mortgaged title deed before making an appointment to go through the property transfer
procedure in the afternoon.
The buyers were in a hurry to move in, so they gave Connor and his family three days to pack up their belongings and move out
after paying in full.
The property transfer was completed at 3.00PM. When the remaining 7.5 million was credited to Connor's bank account, Olivia,
who was standing next to him, was so angry that her heart almost jumped out of her chest. Ellen, that little brat! So much cash is
gonna be given to her in the blink of an eye. I'd rather be killed instead!
“Connor, can’t we talk to Ellen again and see if she can let us keep sof the money for our living expenses? Don’t ask for a big
amount; just ask her to let us keep about 750,000. What do you think?” she said to Connor. Our family will be reduced to starving if
we give all 7.5 million to Ellen!
As one would expect, greed began to stir in Connor's heart as he looked at the account balance shown on his phone. Indeed, we
can talk to Ellen and ask her to let us keep sof the money for our living expenses.
