“You’re right. I think Ellen might be the second Ginovia. She is beautiful when she is still young but will have nothing after she becomes old.”
“Too bad she is busy enjoying the love President Jared gave her. Hence, how will she be able to think about her future? If I were her, I would have left after taking a huge amount of money from him.”
“No way. I would have enjoyed it for some time before leaving. After all, President Jared is eye candy!” “You’re right. I haven’t thought about it.” The two women giggled while leaving the washroom.
After they left the restroom, Ellen walked out of the cubicle with a pale face. Then, she left the restroom and went back to the lounge. Sitting on the couch, she took out her phone and searched about the Prusle Family.
At that moment, the news about Ginovia’s divorce was trending. The media expressed their opinions on this matter, and one of them touched Ellen. ‘Women must never fall in love with a man they can’t subdue. Otherwise, there will only be a bad ending, it wrote.
While looking at the news, a female assistant approached her with some desserts and placed them on the table. Before she left, she looked at Ellen pitifully and said, ‘You might still need to wait for a moment, Miss Reiss. President Jared is still entertaining the guest.”
Hearing her words, Ellen nodded. However, just before the assistant could leave, Ellen took her purse and stood up. ‘Can you help me with something, Miss Reese?” she asked.
“Yes, Miss Reiss.” “I suddenly remembered that I have some urgent business to attend to. Can you not tell him that I have been here?” she asked. Miss Reese was startled by her words, but she soon understood and nodded. “Okay, Miss Reiss.”
Then, Ellen walked toward the elevator with mixed feelings. Maybe it’s better if I leave without saying goodbye! she thought. When she left the building, she went back to Jared’s mansion.
Since she didn’t have many belongings, she quickly finished packing her things. She put everything in a big box and decided to leave. Although this was a sudden idea, she had thought it through.
Ellen wanted to leave, as she knew Jared was not a man she could be with. Although she couldn’t control his life, she could control her own.
Even if Ellen had fallen in love with Jared, she could still walk out of it and think of it as sweet memories. She was all alone, like a bird free from its cage, so she could go wherever she wanted without having much thought.
Ellen was gone. She left a letter for Jared and disappeared without hesitation. Jared was baffled as he sat on the couch and read the letter. He couldn’t believe that Ellen would leave him behind without any notice.
“Darling, who gave you permission to leave? You didn’t even say goodbye,” Jared said after reading the letter. “I will find you.” As he spoke, he raised his head, and his eyes were filled with determination. No matter where you are, I will find you. Then, I will ask about your sudden departure.
A week later, Selena was on trial and was sentenced to a jail time of a year and three months. Although Connor tried to have another lawsuit, it was rejected by the jury.
Never would Selena imagine that she would go to jail for messing with Ellen. Moreover, she had to be in prison for a year and three months. When she found out about it, she almost cried her eyes out.
Oliver couldn’t do anything either. All she could do was watch Selena being taken away by the officers. When Selena was imprisoned, Ellen didn’t show herself, and Olivia loathed her for this. Truthfully, all Ellen had to do was talk to Jared, and she could bail Selena out of jail. However, she didn’t. Hence, Oliver thought Ellen was joyful when she saw how miserable they were.
Even Connor didn’t realize how ruthless Ellen would be. No matter how he looked for her, he couldn’t find her. At that moment, he decided to cut ties with her and denied her as their relative.
However, none of them knew that there was another person as miserable as them. That person was Jared. For the past seven days consecutively, he couldn’t find any traces of her, no matter what he did.
Just like that, Ellen was gone. However, Jared remembered that she had written such words in the letter. ‘Please don’t come and look for me. I am going to pursue my dreams. I wish you good luck, Jared.”
What exactly is her dream? Jared thought. At this moment, realization struck him when he knew nothing about Ellen. When he read her letter, he could tell she was determined to seek freedom. If he were to look for her, he would have gotten in her way.
Although Jared was reluctant to let her go, he still decided to do so. He hoped that they would meet again after she had pursued her dreams. He would wait for her as long as he could. However, questions still filled in his head. Where exactly did she go? What is her dream?
In the meantime, in Brook’s hometown, Ellen. lived in a place known as The Home of Chess. It was a tourist destination where the four seasons were warm. Ellen bought a house and officially became a member of the Chess Academy.
She wanted to elevate herself and find what she truly desired. Thus, she stayed there for one and a half years. Sometimes, she would see Jared on the news, but she had never wanted to look for him. After all, she felt peace when facing chess pieces.
A year later, Ellen participated in the chess. league that was held in the city. Then, she took part in open tournaments and won many matches. After that, she was ranked as a FIDE Master and was titled the most beautiful chess player by the local judges..
However, she was only famous in the city and not nationwide. Since Ellen had her ways of earning money, she didn’t have to worry about cash. Plus, she was a pro when it came to sa saving money.
Thus, her life went on smoothly. She was doing what she liked and found what she truly wanted. Soon, it would be her 25th birthday. Compared to last year, she had changed a lot. Now, she was at peace, had something she was proud of, and was famous.
‘Good luck, Ellen. We have signed you up for the world chess tournament. You, Jay, and Austin will be our representatives. We hope you can bring victory to us.”
“After all, you are the apprentice of Mr. Linton, the national champion. You can do it. When that time comes, you will show the world what you are capable of and become a chess star.”
Ellen nodded and smiled. “I’ll try my best.”
Recently, the media had been reporting that Lockwood Village had become an important development area of Averna. The old houses were gone and were turned into skyscrapers. There were also costly residential areas and industries. Lockwood Village had turned into a new landmark.
On the balcony of a newly furnished apartment, a tall figure was standing by the window. He was looking outside and seemed to be deep in thought.
“It’s getting late, President Jared. You should head home.” Stanley stood behind him and felt his legs getting sore from standing too long.
They were at one of the residential areas that the Presgrave Group had built. Jared had reserved one of the penthouses and furnished it himself. While furnishing, he chose everything that a woman needed.
Thus, it was obvious that he had prepared this place for a woman, and Stanley knew who it was. However, he wondered if Ellen would still be back. One and a half years had passed, but Jared was still love- struck with Ellen. Initially, he had many ways to find out where she was, but he didn’t do so.
He waited patiently as time passed and refused any women who came to him. It went to the point that even Anastasia, who was abroad, had personally asked about his condition. However, Jared was always alone. Now that Jared was going to be twenty-eight years old, even Stanley was worried about his life.
“Do you think she will be back, Stanley?” Jared asked while lowering his eyes.”I will search everywhere and bring her back as long as you are willing to,” replied Stanley. “What if she doesn’t love me?” Jared sighed.
Stanley was also clueless about women. I’m sure every woman loves Jared. After all, he is such a perfect and wealthy man! Although… Miss Reiss is an exception. I guess that makes her different from the other girls who are crazy for Jared.
Thinking about it, Stanley felt that Ellen might have left due to how outstanding Jared was. Ellen must have felt insecure. Hence, he said, “Don’t think of such things, President Jared. I’m sure she loves you.”
“I hope so! I have prepared this house for her. It’s where her old mansion used to be. I really wish that she will return and accept this gift.” Jared sighed.
Stanley knew what he was talking about. In the past, no one wanted to build any residential area in Lockwood Village, but Jared had made this place into a residential area just because he wanted to keep a place for Ellen.
The world chess tournament would be held in Averna by next Friday, and many media outlets. were paying attention to it. A black van stopped by a hotel, and the door was opened from the inside.
Soon, a middle-aged man, an old man, and a girl exited the car. The girl wore a black down jacket and took a deep breath, smiling when she caught the whiff of the familiar scent.
“This is your hometown, Ellie. Do you feel happy to be back?” Jay asked. “Yes. It’s been a year and a half since I last visited here,” Ellen replied.
“Where is your house at?’ Austin asked curiously. What came to Ellen’s mind first was the old manor where her Grandma used to live. That place used to be her home, but now it was gone.
“My old house was demolished, so I don’t really have a home here. Ellen smiled. Afterward, they entered the hotel and rested to prepare for the tournament.
After Ellen had unpacked her stuff, she called a cab and went to the old manor. Everyone would feel safe and happy when they went to their hometown, even if it had changed.
Ellen got out of the cab and tugged on her hat. Windy winter days were the worst, and her ears were freezing. Standing by a lamppost, she raised her head and looked where her grandma used to live. However, the place had turned into a residential area. Rumors had it that the house price was up to thirty million.
Looking at the building, Ellen sighed. She knew she had wishful thinking to think that she could recall the past by coming. However, New Town had already changed into a landmark with commercial value.
At this moment, a black Rolls-Royce drove past her. A figure was sitting in the back of the car with his eyes closed. As the light shone on his handsome face, Ellen took a glance and felt her heart skip a beat.
