All Chapters of Yearning for Her Return : Chapter 761 - Chapter 770

"Why did Rebecca ...," said Carissa.She watched as Rebecca hurried out of the dining room. She was worried about her. "Should we call or send her a message to check if she is okay? What if she has a stomach ache? We could buy some medicine for her," Carissa said.She thought Rebecca was genuinely feeling unwell.Although Alex hadn't spent as much time with Rebecca as Caleb had, a quick glance at the expression on Rebecca's face when she left with a grumpy look made him realize what was going on.He calmly pressed the elevator button. "There’s no need. If there's anything that she needs, Caleb can take care of it. We don't need to worry about that."Carissa wanted to say something but stopped.Alex looked at her, then added reassuringly, "Don't worry, everything is fine. She just ate too much just now and couldn't leave early. Plus, we kept teasing her ex-husband. She couldn’t bear it anymore, so she ran away. With the way she ran away just now, it doesn’t seem like she is sick."

However, Alex was aware that the cost of being a shameless person was to be ignored by the girl he liked.Judging by the current situation, it was not a crisis for him yet at this point. As long as he kept his virtue of being a good gentleman, he shouldn’t become as pathetic as Daniel. He couldn’t help but reprimand himself for having such thoughts.What was he thinking?Out of everyone, why did he have to compare himself to Daniel? Was it really necessary?Putting aside all the trivial matters in his mind, Alex lowered his head and looked at Carissa, who was sitting in the passenger seat.He casually glanced at her and said with a smile, "If that's the case, let's get to know each other again. I will need much of your help in the future, Miss Carissa."Carissa looked up and met his gaze. Finally, all the worries in her mind were gone.She didn't know what she was worried about.However, Alex fell into silence soon after saying that. Carrisa became more cautious. She was

It was nine o'clock at night now, and the TV was showing the typical dramas that the older generations usually like.It showed scenes of a mother-in-law causing trouble for her daughter-in-law with a confrontational tone. The mother-in-law was standing on the moral high ground and criticizing the daughter-in-law for not being a good wife. She spoke about how other daughters-in-law served their husbands and criticized the daughter-in-law's actions incessantly.Well, it sounded horrible indeed.Carissa couldn't utter a single word. Because of Gina's words, Carissa came back to have a good talk with her parents. No matter if Gina's words were true or false, it was still bad for family members to have such tension.However, she did not expect things to turn out like this.She hadn't even stepped into her house and was already hurt so deeply.Carissa stood in place and listened to the characters on the television argue incessantly. She felt like she stood out awkwardly in this s

Carissa released her emotions in Alex's arms for quite some time before pulling away. The pent-up frustration seemed to flow out along with her tears, and when she noticed the large wet spot on Alex's chest due to her tears, embarrassment replaced the previous emotions. It felt like she hadn't cried much since elementary school. Crying didn't seem to change anything. No matter how loud she cried, the food snatched away and thrown on the ground wouldn't miraculously return to her hands. No matter how hard she cried, she still had to go downstairs to prepare dinner alone and wipe away tears while eating. Her parents were always busy, and crying only brought them more trouble. They would look at her with impatience, threaten to take her to the detention center, and scold her for being a crybaby who didn't understand anything. Consequently, when she later sought help from the police, her heart was filled with mixed emotions.It was ironic that those who were there to help her

Carissa didn't know, and she couldn't give herself an answer now.Since it was already dark, she decided to go back and have a good night's sleep.She would then think about her concerns tomorrow.After spending some time by the roadside and taking a detour along the riverbank, the traffic on the street had lessened. Alex silently accelerated and quickly returned to the hotel.The official accommodation provided by the event was on the same floor, so Alex conveniently escorted Carissa to her room. He stopped at the door and said, "Get some rest in your room. Don't overthink things. Tomorrow is a day off. If you plan to return to the base early, go with the others. If you don't want to go back so soon and have no plans, how about joining me?""Sure." Carissa, having already calmed down, seriously considered Alex's suggestion. "I'll give you an answer tomorrow morning, okay?"Although she didn't know Alex's holiday plans, the idea of going out with him to unwind and get to know e
