“Meow!” Ellen was startled by the meow, only to see that the kitten had naughtily jumped onto Jared’s bed. ‘Ah! Milkshake, you can’t get onto the bed.” She immediately leaped to catch the kitten..
However, Jared’s bed was too big, and the kitten immediately jumped to the other side of the bed, so she had no choice but to beg Jared for help. “Young Master Jared, please help me catch it.”
Walking to the other side of the bed to stop the kitten, Jared soon caught it with his big hand. Ellen came over and held the kitten in her arms. Feeling the man’s sturdy chest in close proximity, she went red in the face and dared not even take another glance at it.
At this moment, Jared’s deep eyes also flickered unnaturally. He couldn’t keep calm in the young lady’s presence, especially when he had just taken a shower. Her presence simply ignited his flames of desire. “Go back to your room!” he said in a slightly husky voice.
Ellen hurriedly ran out with the kitten in her arms, thinking that she had to keep an eye on the kitten and forbid it from running around in the future.
After she had left, Jared finally heaved a faint sigh of relief. Looking down at a certain part of his body, he bit his thin lip helplessly. The days ahead aren’t gonna be easy, I’m afraid.
After all, I’m an adult man who’s already 26 years old, not a young adult who has just come of age. That night, Ellen placed the kitten on its little bed; she dared not let it run around anymore.
The next morning, Ellen got out of bed and was startled to see a figure awaiting her outside the door. “Why did you get up so early in the morning?” “Wanna go jogging with me?” Jared invited her.
As it happened, Ellen also wanted to exercise a bit. She replied with a nod, “Okay! Give me a minute while I get changed.” She changed into sportswear before changing into a pair of sports shoes as they went out.
Then, she greeted the morning sun with the man, breathing the fresh air on the hillside while jogging along a perfect jogging trail that stretched to the hilltop.
Shrouded in a thin layer of mist, the Central Business District nearby looked amazingly beautiful from here. Those high-rise buildings look just like geometrical figures from here, thought Ellen with wonder as she jogged along the trail.
The man in front of her jogged while matching. her pace. The morning sun cast a gentle glow on her face, making her look delicately attractive with a refreshing charm like morning dew.
As expected, Ellen’s stamina wasn’t up to it. After jogging less than 200 yards, she had to slow down and walk instead. Panting slightly, she said with a smile, ‘I can’t run anymore.”
Jared stopped jogging, too, he walked with her at a strolling pace. “Let’s walk, then! We’ll walk to the top of the hill before coming down.”
Only then did Ellen get a picture of what the super-rich was like. Even such a big jogging facility is privately owned, she thought.
After climbing all the way to the top of the hill, she was already out of breath, but she felt very fulfilled. “Wow! It’s so beautiful!” she said with a sigh.
Jared quietly stepped behind her. Before she realized what was happening, an arm gently wrapped itself around her waist. He leaned forward and rested his attractive chin lightly on her shoulder, asking, “You like it?”
Ellen’s body tensed up for a moment before she quietly relaxed. She replied with a nod, “Uh-huh, I like it.”
“Then, you should keep on staying at my house. I can come here and enjoy the scenery with you every day,” the man pleaded under his breath.
Ellen could hear her heart thump. Jared’s words were no different from a profession of love; however, having been through so many things, she was no longer impatient for an outcome. Gazing into the distance, she replied, “Let’s wait until I’ve settled down before we talk about this, okay?”
Jared was also a little annoyed with himself for pushing her too hard. She’s just been through so many things. Can’t I wait until her life becomes more peaceful before going out with her?
They stayed on the hill for a while. As it was too windy, Jared then led her down the hill for fear that she might catch a cold.
He drove her out for breakfast. He usually stayed alone and didn’t like to have servants at home, so he normally ate out for breakfast. However, he wondered if he should get a couple of servants for Ellen so that she could have tasty and nutritious meals while staying at home. “My time’s all yours today. What would you like to do?” he asked her.
Ellen pondered for a moment before suggesting, “Would you like to go to the movies with me, then?” Jared smiled. “Of course.”
Meanwhile, Connor and Olivia went to the real estate agent together to sign the house purchase and sale agreement. The full payment was credited to Connor’s account before the real estate agent, who then accompanied Connor to the bank to pay off the outstanding loan and get back the mortgaged title deed before making an appointment to go through the property transfer procedure in the afternoon.
The buyers were in a hurry to move in, so they gave Connor and his family three days to pack up their belongings and move out after paying in full.
The property transfer was completed at 3.00PM. When the remaining 7.5 million was credited to Connor’s bank account, Olivia, who was standing next to him, was so angry that her heart almost jumped out of her chest. Ellen, that little brat! So much cash is gonna be given to her in the blink of an eye. I’d rather be killed instead!
“Connor, can’t we talk to Ellen again and see if she can let us keep some of the money for our living expenses? Don’t ask for a big amount; just ask her to let us keep about 750,000. What do you think?” she said to Connor. Our family will be reduced to starving if we give all 7.5 million to Ellen!
As one would expect, greed began to stir in Connor’s heart as he looked at the account balance shown on his phone. Indeed, we can talk to Ellen and ask her to let us keep some of the money for our living expenses.
Connor prepared to ask Ellen out tomorrow to give her the money and talk about this while he was at it. Meanwhile, in the movie theater…
Having bought the movie tickets, Ellen first went to the movie theater’s lounge area with Jared. They were going to watch a warm and inspirational movie for young people.
Many youngsters came in groups to watch it, and besides, its male protagonist was played by an actor whom Ellen had always liked, which made her especially look forward to the movie.
While waiting for the movie to begin, Ellen picked up the mini poster on the table; a smile couldn’t help but reach her beautiful sparkling eyes as she looked at the handsome lead actor on the poster.
Unbeknownst to her, the man beside her was also looking at her and thus noticed the animated expression on her face. He darted a sidelong glance at the lead actor on the poster, who was indeed pretty good- looking. “Do you like this actor very much?” he asked nonchalantly.
“Uh-huh, I like him very much. He’d just made his debut when I started high school. At the time, he was an unknown little actor, now he’s already one of the top celebrities!” Ellen said, introducing the actor as if she were very proud of him.
Little did she notice that the smile on the face of the man beside her was somewhat strained. “Is that so?”
Ellen replied, “That’s right! He’s not only a good actor but also skilled at singing and dancing. My friends and I even clubbed together to go to his concert when I was at college.” Her eyes shone brightly as she spoke of her idol, as though she were talking about one of the happiest moments of her life.
At this moment, the man’s strained smile vanished. Pressing his tongue against his cheek, he looked askance at the lead actor on the poster, as if a hint of jealousy had surged up within him without rhyme or reason.
Ellen continued with a look of anticipation, “I’l definitely go rooting for him at his next concert. Not only that, I’ll get the upfront seat and try to shake hands with him.”
The man beside her turned as black as thunder in an instant. He replied with a faint cough, “Okay! Take me along then. I’ll go with you.” “Do you like him as well?” Ellen asked in surprise.
Jared was speechless. “Uh-huh. You like him, so I like him too, of course.” Just then, several young ladies who had been staring at Jared for a long time made some loud noises, with each of them trying to draw his attention in every way possible. They never expected to come across a super-handsome guy in the lounge area. Not only was he a refined beefcake, but he also looked even more handsome than the lead actor. How they wished they could draw his attention!
Ellen darted a look at the ladies nearby. As a young lady, she naturally saw through their intentions. Only then did she look narrowly at the man beside her with mesmerizing eyes. No wonder he’s such a chick magnet. He’s really charming, after all.
Just then, it was announced that they could enter the theater by showing their movie tickets. Ellen stood up, saying, ‘Let’s go.” The movie began shortly after they entered the theater.
Ellen was holding a box of popcorn in her arms when Jared reached over for it. At first, Ellen wanted to grab some popcorn, but she ended up grabbing the man’s hand while watching the movie. She darted an embarrassed look at him.
Feeling the softness of her fingers, Jared felt a flutter in his heart. However, just when he looked at her tenderly, he noticed that her eyes were fixed steadily on the silver screen, on which the lead actor’s youthful and upbeat appearance drew screams from a bunch of fans in the theater.
Of course, Ellen was also drawn to the lead actor, who really looked like every lady’s perfect dreamboat in the movie. His smile was so therapeutic that Ellen’s lips curved into a smile, too.
Staring at the lead actor in the movie, the man beside her became jealous at once. Does this lady like this actor so much? Does she have to fangirl over him like this?
Jared didn’t watch the whole movie at all. Instead, he saw again and again how Ellen looked like when she was infatuated with another man. Her eyes even glistened with tears when the lead male protagonist got banished from his family by his parents at the end of the movie. Immersed completely in the plot of the movie, she secretly shed tears for him.
When the movie came to an end, Jared finally heaved a sigh of relief. It was hinted at the end of the movie that there was an Easter egg. Ellen wanted to wait for it, but the man took her hand and dragged her away.
“Hey… There’s still an Easter egg in the movie!” The man dragged Ellen out of the theater without a pause. She couldn’t help but break free of his grasp, asking, ‘Let go of me, okay?”
