Chapter 212 Ellie was so lonely that I knew she wantedto stay. However, I only had two days off, so I extended my Teave by another two days to keep her company. But then again, all good things must cto an end, and I had to leave eventually.

Before I left, she madecoffee and packed food that she had cooked with flower petals and She made sure she gavethe best of everything she had. pollen.

I knew she was genuinely fond of me, and that affection madefeel a responsibility I couldn't put into words. "Maddie, please visitwhenever you can," Ellie said as her eyes avoided mine.

"Of course," I replied while keeping my words brief.

I felt a lump in my throat. I didn't dare to say more out of fear that I would start crying before she did. Goodbyes were like the softest knife that left the deepest ache.

"I already asked a friend to help find a doctor for you. Once everything is arranged, Bran and I will cget you," I told her as I hugged her goodbye, offering a new glimmer of hope. "Okay, I'll be waiting, Maddie," Ellie said. Her words beca driving force for me.

On the way back, I sent Lisa another message. She toldto go straight to her place after I landed.

I had taken the train on the way here and now I was taking a plane back. I spent the entire flight sleeping and dreaming about the moments I had spent with Ellie the past few days. From tending to the plants, washing clothes in the river, and talking late into the night as we lay side.

My temper which had softened by my tspent with Ellie had flared up again thanks to Chris.

Chris went silent. Just as I was about to hang up, he said, "They won't letin the house anymore." Served you right! The words flashed through my mind.

"Maddie, I'm completely alone now." Chris' voice was filled with desolation.

However, I didn't feel any sympathy toward him. Instead, I mocked him, "You brought this on yourself." Chapter 212 Chris laughed bitterly: "Yeah, I deserved this." At least he knew that much.

"Maddie, do you think my dad is completely disappointed in me?" He asked an incredibly foolish question.

Zack's hair had turned white because of him. It was more than just than justo m disappointmentelt was heartache, helplessness, and anger only he could truly understand,
