“What?” Before Ellen could react, Jared held her cheeks in his hands and kissed her lightly on the lips. He then let go of her face

and purred, “I prefer such a way of expressing your gratitude”

Ellen’s face immediately flushed red. Just as Jared was about to leave, she summoned her courage and wrapped her arms around

his neck in the spur of the moment. Going up on her toes, she gave him a peck on the cheek.

Jared's eyes shone with happiness. “I'll see you tomorrow.”

“I'm going on leave tomorrow,” Ellen responded as she blinked. That reminded Jared of her leave. With his eyes narrowed, he

asked, “Why do you need a day off?”

“Tomorrow is my brother's death anniversary. I'm going to visit his grave, Ellen answered. honestly.

“I'm free tomorrow. I'll go with you!” Jared immediately offered, effectively startling Ellen.. “Do you really want to go with me?”

“Yes. I'll go with you.” Jared nodded and continued, “I'll pick you up tomorrow morning.”

“Will that disrupt your work?’ she asked quickly. “Of course not!” He had decided that he would accompany her tomorrow since he

didn’t want to miss such an important day for her.

“Okay. See you tomorrow, then.” Ellen was elated that Jared would be going with her to visit her brother.

She was the only one visiting Kevin's grave all these years and had even planned to ask her future children-if she had any-to

remember to visit Kevin's grave every year as well.

Kevin's grave was in a different place than her parent's graves. Hence, Ellen would visit two different cemeteries every year.

Starting next year, she would also have to visit her grandmother's grave.

After entering the house and shutting the door, Ellen took a deep breath. Despite all the unhappy events that happened today, she

had thought things through.

There weren't so many things in the world that were worthy of her being depressed about. She had to live her life well and focus

on loving those who deserved it, including herself.

At 9.30PM, Olivia was watching television alone in Connor's house. This was her usual routine and she normally would go to bed

whenever she was tired, regardless of whether her. husband would return. She once cared about

this but after learning that Connor needed to socialize for the sake of his investments, she no longer took it as an issue.

Now that her daughter had brought it up, she felt particularly uneasy tonight. Thus, she took her phone and gave her husband a

call.

“Hello, Olivia!” Connor said cheerfully on the other end of the line. “Why haven't you returned yet? It's late,” she grumbled. “Go to

bed first. | will be late.”

“Connor, I'm warning you, don’t even think about messing around outside! You'll perish in my hands, Olivia reminded him sternly.

He began coaxing Olivia in response. “Do you not trust me? Of course, | would never do such a thing!”

Connor was good at nothing except pacifying his wife. Indeed, after he finished his sentence, Olivia felt that she was irreplaceable

to him and laughed. “Don’t try to sweet-talk me. Cback earlier.”

“Okay. I'll be right back.” He then hung up the call after successfully pacifying her.

Truth was, he was in his other house at the moment. After he ended the call, his lover appeared, carrying his son. ‘You can’t go

back early. Your son needs you!” she said begrudgingly.

“Don’t leave, Daddy. You always leavehere.” Connor's son hugged his legs, refusing to let him go.

“Okay, okay. I'm not leaving and will stay by your side.” Connor would leave after his son fell asleep every night to give the

impression that he was always in the house.

However, his son refused to sleep. It was only until 11.30PM that Connor managed to return to his first hfrom his second

home.

Meanwhile, Olivia was getting bored waiting for him. Hence, she began to go through her. jewelry. Looking at the diamond ring

Connor had recently bought for her birthday, she felt overjoyed. It won't be safe forto wear this, so | should just sell it for some

extra cash!

With this, Olivia decided to sell the ring the next day and spend the money at a beauty salon. Connor had always considered

beauty salons a waste of money, so she could only go there secretly with her own money.
