Lean stroked the top of Hill's head affectionately. Just as he expected, Hill was still sick and not completely healed. After an hour of playing in the park, Hill has now fallen asleep on his shoulders. That kid was not as active as usual. When he tried to impress Hill with his basketball skills, the boy just clapped his hands without showing any enthusiasm. But whatever it was, Lean felt relieved that Hill was doing well. It only takes a little more time to rest, medicine, and nutritious food, and Hill will soon recover from illness. "Oh, I was just about to catch up with you." Letha looked surprised when Lean suddenly stood behind her who had just locked the apartment door. Seeing Hill sleeping comfortably on Lean's shoulder, Letha hurriedly opened the door to her apartment again and immediately opened the door wide for Lean. "Your friend is home?" “Yes, ten minutes ago. After clearing the glasses and plates, I intend to catch up with you. Is he a bother?" Letha led Lean to Hill
There is no worse day than today. Avelyn felt so bad he felt like crying. Really she hates being in the silence without anyone who will hold it. Rebecca here couldn’t help calm her down. And she also didn't want to keep bothering Rebecca just to hear all her sad story. She was an adult, married, but her heart and mind felt completely immature. Until now she hasn't even tried to fix the problem with Elvis. Her ego is really too high just to just contact Elvis, then invite the man to talk nicely. And because of that now Avelyn was sad. All day, after she came home from McDonalds feeling annoyed with Tobbie, she just stayed home without doing anything. Many times Magda knocked on her door, reminding her to eat, but she always refused on the grounds that she was full. But that's exactly what happened. She is full of the problems that have befallen her. This impulsive marriage in fact tortured her and made her heart waver. It is undeniable that her recent closeness with Lean has influence
Elvis Taylor is an old man with a gloomy face who has not been touched by happiness during his life. Since his wife and child died, Elvis has continued to make himself like a robot who has absolutely no thought for his own health. Now at the age of fifty-three, Elvis looked so pale, his cheekbones protruded horribly because of his thin body. Her eyeballs, once brilliant green, had faded to a cloudy green from looking at the computer too much. Elvis's pale skin looked wrinkled here and there because of the effects of the hard drugs he had been consuming. Although he never considered his heart disease to be a serious disease, he occasionally took medication to survive. He needs to endure until he finds the right person to replace him. There are thousands of employees who survive from the business he started. If he dies, then who will be responsible for them? It's not easy running a business in the life of the family troubles that have haunted him for the past twenty five years or so. E
Avelyn hesitated to ring the bell in front of her. But this is the only chance she has so she can be free from Michael who has been looking for her since five days ago. Her flight from that man was not time to stop. She had to keep moving in order to avoid Michael's hired spies whom he had seen in the various places he had been. This morning when she came out of her rented apartment on the outskirts of LA, she saw a man with glasses standing reading a newspaper across the street, right in front of her apartment window. Of course she wouldn't be as paranoid as it if the man she saw this morning was not the same as the man she saw yesterday while having lunch at a Japanese restaurant. Without any hesitation, Avelyn was sure that this man was the spy Michael sent to find her. But to hell with that guy. After she was sure that her position was known, she just walked out of the apartment, speeding fast right in front of the man using her sports car which she happened to be able to rely o
The halls were full and bustling with Royale High School students. Avelyn walked as usual down the hallway, ignoring the scornful stares of her friends. Isn't that normal? Avelyn thought sarcastically. For almost three years, she had always received the same gaze from them. So this is no longer a problem for her. But is she sure that this is not a problem? A student suddenly blocked her way. He looked at her body with an impolite look, then suddenly gripped her chin with a painful grip. "Let me go!" Avelyn hissed sarcastically. As far as she knew she had never had any business with the dark curly-haired student. But she knew what his name was, Hudson. That boy had never bothered her, at least as long as she was with Michael. Only a fool would dare to deal with Michael. Unfortunately not anymore. Avelyn wasn't part of Michael anymore, ever since she slapped the man for her lecherous act. Their relationship was practically broken. Michael didn't come to her often in class anymore to d
"I'm really sorry."Nobody know how many sorry words Andrew sent to Avelyn this morning. Since seeing her standing in the living room with her suitcase beside her body, Andrew has continued to apologize to Avelyn while showing a face full of regret and wounds. Maybe the man didn't completely dislike Avelyn. He honestly loves Avelyn, it's just that he is too complacent about the appearance of his past that accidentally helped him meet all his needs when he had to live apart from Avelyn because their lives were too busy all this time. And this morning when taking Avelyn to the airport, Andrew again said sorry to Avelyn while hugging Avelyn tightly. It was hard to let Avelyn go forever. But he also couldn't hold Avelyn by his side when he had cut such a deep wound in the woman's heart."May God always protect you wherever you are," whispered Andrew hoarsely in front of Avelyn who only had a hardened face in front of him.“Our house in Chicago—" Andrew sighed heavily. It was obvious that
"Ave!"Avelyn immediately dropped her tired body on top of Rebecca's cream sofa without paying attention to the screams of Rebecca in the kitchen. Befriending this woman over the years let Avelyn know the code for Rebecca's apartment which has become her second home here.Her head hit the edge of the sofa as she tried to lift her head to see Rebecca, who was waving at the end of the kitchen door."I was cooking a meal when you texted you back from Columbia," shouted Rebecca again from the kitchen.Avelyn chose to ignore Rebecca's screams for a moment and closed her tired eyes after the four-hour flight from Columbia. This time she felt her body really crumble because she just realized that since Michael died, she hasn't rested her body properly. No wonder her body is currently struggling to ask for her rights to be fulfilled. She needs to rest at least two hours to make her body better."Drink your hot tea first, Ave. You look so thin, pale and tired."Hearing the voice of Rebecca who
Autumn is so beautiful for Avelyn who loves the amazing sight of falling yellow leaves on her school grounds. With a big smile Avelyn stretched out her hand and let the yellow leaves fall one by one on her palms. It's lucky for her to be able to attend this elite school. If it weren't for her brilliant bright brain, her mother certainly couldn't have sent her to this expensive school. Even so, she should always take heart whenever the students in this school looked at her with scorn. To them she is just a nerd student who is so annoying because this poor girl with various economic limitations can beat them in school rankings. There is no doubt that Avelyn is a smart student in her class, even at her school, so that the committee board has never stopped giving her scholarships. Even until she graduated, everything was guaranteed by the school board."What are you doing, nerd?"That call, Avelyn was used to hearing it. And she didn't have to bother putting her strength into it. She just

Lean stroked the top of Hill's head affectionately. Just as he expected, Hill was still sick and not completely healed. After an hour of playing in the park, Hill has now fallen asleep on his shoulders. That kid was not as active as usual. When he tried to impress Hill with his basketball skills, the boy just clapped his hands without showing any enthusiasm. But whatever it was, Lean felt relieved that Hill was doing well. It only takes a little more time to rest, medicine, and nutritious food, and Hill will soon recover from illness. "Oh, I was just about to catch up with you." Letha looked surprised when Lean suddenly stood behind her who had just locked the apartment door. Seeing Hill sleeping comfortably on Lean's shoulder, Letha hurriedly opened the door to her apartment again and immediately opened the door wide for Lean. "Your friend is home?" “Yes, ten minutes ago. After clearing the glasses and plates, I intend to catch up with you. Is he a bother?" Letha led Lean to Hill
There was nothing Avelyn could do today. After returning from Lean's apartment, she found her house quiet as usual. Elvis is not home. Yeah, of course that guy couldn't be home at ten like this. It is certain that Elvis is currently struggling at his office desk to sign the dozens of files that come and go on his desk. Thinking about Elvis getting longer, it made Avelyn even more annoyed. The cold war that occurred between them actually made their household unclear like this. Even last night Elvis didn't contact her at all. Even though when Avelyn activated her cellphone this morning, she hoped Elvis would call her, looking for her with a panicked face while praying non-stop throughout the night, asking God for her safety. But all she got when her white cellphone was completely turned on was a pile of emails from credit cards, from the legality agency Lean who sent her a copy of the employment contract, then a few missed calls from Becca. In addition, there were absolutely no calls
Letha rested on her chin in Hill's room while accompanying the boy to play with his dinosaurs. It had been quite a while since Tatyana had said goodbye to go out with her boyfriend. Her heart had been wondering whether Lean would come to see his child? Is Lean willing to leave the pleasures that woman offers in his apartment? The more she thought about it, Letha's head grew dizzy and her heart pounded. She can't just keep expecting a man who clearly doesn't expect her anymore. This is her fault. The other side of her was sneering while laughing at her old foolishness. She was too arrogant when Lean volunteered take responbility to his past. And at that time, when Lean was staying at her house in Tacoma, Lean said he wanted to make a whole family for Hill. The man wanted to fulfill the dream of children in general who always wanted a warm family with a complete father and mother. How he hated himself, who at Hill's age could not feel a normal family life, so he didn't want something
Avelyn closed the door to Lean's apartment and stayed where she was with a frown as she stared at the door. Just now Letha came. But he thought the woman looked strange. Her face showed both nervousness and surprise when she saw her open the door. Avelyn then glanced at her own appearance from top to toe, at her bare feet. Instantly she patted herself on the forehead and voiced some curses for the stupidity she had done this morning. Really she didn't mean to misunderstand her. No wonder Letha immediately looked pale after seeing her come out to open the door. her appearance this morning really couldn't be said to be appropriate. She thought she was still wearing her wet dress last night because she didn't even check her appearance before getting out of bed. Moments ago she was awakened by the disturbing sound of the bell from the front door. She saw Lean sleeping soundly on the sofa, made her feel so sorry that she decided to open the door without waking Lean. Seeing the man so guar
All night Lean has to keep Avelyn from being unconscious. In a panic, Lean decided to take Avelyn to his apartment. It was completely unthinkable in Lean's mind to take Avelyn to the hospital because he was too worry about Avelyn's situation. Plus, if he took Avelyn to the hospital, it would only create a scene. In this city, even though people are indifferent to each other, there is still a sly paparazzi who likes to take advantage of the situation. So in the end Lean turned the steering wheel toward his apartment and immediately lifted Avelyn outside as soon as they reached the basement of the lonely apartment. One of the things he is grateful for about the apartment, they prioritize a very strict privacy system. None of the spies managed to infiltrate the apartment to extract information that the owner of the information did not allow. After Lean managed to bring Avelyn to his room, the man immediately laid Avelyn carefully on the bed and took a towel to dry Avelyn's drenched body
