that, but she replied humbly, “Thank you, I'll continue to treat my hobby as my career
and further develop it.”
“You have my support.” He then looked at her with a deep gaze. “I'll support you in
whatever you do in the future.”
Ellen blushed upon hearing that; she wasn’t sure whether he was offering support as
a friend or as someone beyond that. “Why did you post such a comment on social
media?” Ellen asked. “I'm speaking the truth. Is there anything wrong. with it?”
“But we...”
“Do you think that you aren't my girlfriend anymore just because we have been
separated for a year? We haven't officially broken up, you know.” Jared spoke in
displeasure.
Ellen’s face flushed red and bechot instantly when she heard his remarks. She
wound the car window down to get sair, not knowing how to answer him. After a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbrief pause, she replied shyly, “Alright!”
Upon hearing her reply, Jared smiled since it was the answer he wanted from her.
“What about you? Have you been in contact with any guys in the past year?”
Jared started fussing about it since he wanted to know how she felt about him.
“Nope.” She shook her head. ‘Did anyone try courting you?” he asked again.
This tround, she didn’t shake her head but replied honestly, “Yeah, but | rejected
his advances.” “In the future, you should announce that you are taken. Jared scoffed,
still feeling jealous about it. “Don’t be so domineering!” She chuckled.
“Do you blme for not looking for you the past year?” he asked again. “I don't.”
She shook her head. After all, she had written to Jared and told him not to look for her
to give her sspace and freedom.
“l knew that you'd be back. | had a feeling that you'd return for sure.” He revealed to
her his thoughts in the past year. The reason he didn’t go looking for her was that he
was waiting for her to return.
Tears welled up in her eyes upon hearing that. Does he really think that way? “After
dinner, I'll bring you somewhere. You'll love it.” “Where is it?” she asked curiously.
“You'll find out later on.”
As soon as they reached the upscale steakhouse, which was Ellen's favorite
restaurant, she told him about the house she had gotten in town. It cwith a
garden, which was how she imagined her dream house to be
“If there's a chance, I'd like to go take a look. Perhaps I'll even stay a few nights
there.” He was already looking forward to it. “Sure!” She welcomed the idea.
It was only 8.30PM when their dinner ended. Following that, Jared drove Ellen in his
car. The further they drove, the more familiar her surroundings looked.
Isn’t this where my house used to be? She even remembered that she had
deliberately cover to look at it once before. “Why are you takinghere?”
“Take a guess.” He smiled.
However, nothing cto mind, so she could only wait for him to bring her there. As
soon as Jared parked his car at a luxurious car park, he asked her to get out of the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcar. Then, the both. of them took the elevator before heading over to the penthouse.
“Did you move here?” she asked. After Jared opened the door, he stretched his hand
out and made a welcoming gesture. ‘Il designed this place, especially for you.”
Upon walking into the unit, Ellen was shocked. As she looked out through the floor-toceiling windows, she noticed the dazzling city
lights and realized that she was within
the central location of New Town.
After giving it sthought, she looked up and asked, “No way. Is this location where
my house used to be?” “You're right. This is where your house used to be, so | built
you a house in the sspot. Do you like it?” he asked earnestly.
She was overwhelmed by emotions upon hearing that. The next moment, she walked
toward him and wrapped her arms around his waist before burying her face in his
chest.
She couldn't find the words to express herself. With that, Jared tightened his embrace
around her and planted a kiss on the top of her head as he relished the long-awaited
hug.
