“Willow, even if you said so, I’m not giving up. I believe that one day you’ll change your mind!” the man shouted from behind, a determined look on his face.
Willow could only sigh at his confession. As she was still young, she wanted to spend her time pursuing her dream instead of falling in love with a man.
Even though her family background could provide her with the best educational choices and resources, she chose a different path.
She was now studying to become a cultural relic conservator-restorer in the future, and it was a long way to go. As she came from a wealthy family, she didn’t even need to work to sustain her family. She could have gone after her interests and hobbies to find meaningful and valuable things to do in life.
At first, Elliot disapproved of her dream due to it being a hard and risky job. After all, she was his only daughter and he was reluctant to see her risk her life pursuing her dream.
However, Willow overpowered her parents with her charm. After much persuasion, Elliot and Anastasia gave in and agreed with her.
Willow had to put a lot of effort into her studies to make her dream come true. There’s not enough time to study. I won’t waste time pursuing a relationship!
She happened to be making a trip back to her hometown to study in a cultural relics restoration project. What a coincidence! I can take this opportunity to see Jared and my future sister-in-law. I can’t wait to see them.
The next morning in the Presgrave Hospital, Ellen was told that Elliot and Anastasia would be coming back soon. As such, she was rather nervous about their meeting.
Jared shared his family’s photos with her, and she couldn’t help but be surprised at how they looked. They’re so young! Jared’s sister is beautiful too. She seems like a nice person.
The hospital gave her a check-up. Her child was almost two weeks old, and everything was going fine. In the meantime, Ellen had to consume a balanced diet to provide her child with the necessary nutrition.
Jared decided to hire a nutritionist to keep tabs on her health. Furthermore, they were preparing for their wedding. Trivial details such as trying out their wedding tuxes and dresses had been. on their mind lately. Ellen waited for the day of their wedding to arrive at ease.
After the recent incident, Jared made Ellen his top priority. Even if she only planned for a stroll outside, she had to tell him, so he could assign bodyguards to accompany her. After all, she was now pregnant with his child.
Ellen gladly accepted his gestures. In the past, she worried that she would disturb his work, so she never brought herself to bother him. But now, she could always send him a message whenever she wanted as Jared claimed that she came first no matter what.
Therefore, even if he might be in an important meeting, he would suspend it and deal with her matter first. Ellen has the privilege, Jared thought.
Ellen would never expect morning sickness in the early stage could be that bad. In just a few days, she felt her losing her appetite, and every meal she had tasted so bland.
Besides, she had been craving sour foods the whole time after she got pregnant. Due to that, she lost weight in only a couple of days.
At the same time, she was nervous and anxious as she was about to see her future parents-in- law. It might be due to the television series she watched, but she had the impression that most of the ladies of the house, especially wealthy ones, weren’t friendly.
At 3.30PM, Jared was at the airport, waiting for his family at the exit dedicated to the VIP guests. He raised his hand to read the time on his watch from time to time. I can’t believe we haven’t seen each other in more than a year. He was supposed to live with his parents last year, but a business trip changed his plan, so he spent his days in another country by himself.
Therefore, if his memories served him right, he and his parents had spent more than one year away from each other. I miss my precious little sister too.
After a long wait, a group of bodyguards in suits showed up at the VIP exit. Following them was a couple who walked hand-in-hand, and behind them was an adorable girl who carried a bag on her back. Finally! “Dad, Mom!” Jared waved his hand at them in excitement.
“Jared!” Willow ran past her parents and toward Jared with movements as gentle as a butterfly. Even though the siblings were separated from: each other for a long time, they spent their youth in each other’s company. The moment Jared was in arm’s reach, she nudged him with her head.
