- Chapter 421
- Alex turned, gazing into the distance at the greenhouse, and forced himself to ask, “When do you plan to leave?”
- “I never said I was leaving.” Ellie’s soft and gentle voice came from behind. Alex spun around abruptly.
- Their eyes met, and Ellie took two steps forward. Gathering her courage, she carefully reached out and embraced him.
- She pressed her cheek to his chest, listening to his strong and steady heartbeat, and said, “My mom agreed.”
- Alex’s crimson eyes welled up with emotion.
- His mind buzzed with confusion for a moment, and all he could hear was the pounding of his own heart.
- After what felt like an eternity, Alex came to his senses.
- “Ellie,” he whispered. Like a madman, he lifted Ellie into his arms and spun around in circles in the garden.
- His eyes were terrifyingly red. Though he was laughing, tears streamed down his face without pause.
- From a distance, Barry watched his boss, who was nimbly carrying Ellie in circles around the garden, and quickly moved away to give them space.
- “Alex, your leg is still injured. Put me down,” Ellie said, hearing Alex’s choked sobs and struggling to slide out of his grasp.
- Alex held Ellie close, his hand resting on the back of her neck.
- He rested his forehead against hers and croaked. “Let me check. I’m not dreaming, am I?”
- Before Ellie could understand what he meant, his cool lips had already met hers. There were no other movements, and they were just immersed in their small world.
- The garden was eerily quiet, with only the stars in the sky as witnesses, serene and gentle.
- After what seemed like a long while, Alex reluctantly released her
- Seeing Ellie’s flushed face, lowered in embarrassment, Alex looked at her with the gaze of a devout believer.
- “I’ll never lose you again,” he said. “You filled my entire past, and you can’t be absent from my future.”
- Ellie bravely looked up into Alex’s passionate eyes.
- On a June night, the garden of the Warren Manor was enveloped by the starry sky, with occasional chirping insects and an otherwise silent atmosphere.
- The two stood in the garden, holding each other’s hands and looking into each other’s eyes.
- Recalling the half–spoken words from Aaron and the hesitant, looks from her aunts and uncles at the Thompson residence earlier, the tenderness in Ellie’s eyes gradually turned to seriousness.
- She said to Alex, “Alex, I have amnesia and can’t remember many things. I don’t want to hear it from others right now; I just want to hear it from you.”
- A flicker of emotion crossed Alex’s eyes as he asked, “What do you want to hear?”
- “I just want to know if anything bad happened between us during my amnesia,” Ellie replied.
- “In what way?” Alex inquired.
- “Any way,” Ellie clarified.
- Their eyes met, and the atmosphere became inexplicably heavy
- Alex’s Adam’s apple bobbed up and down as he looked into Ellie’s eyes and said firmly, “No, we’re fine.”
- Ellie looked into Alex’s eyes again for confirmation. “Really?”
- “Really!” Alex assured her.
- Ellie’s eyes softened. She believed that a man who would risk his life for her wouldn’t lie to her. “Alex, even though I can’t remember many things, I trust that you wouldn’t deceive me,” she said.
- Emotions surged in Alex’s eyes as he pulled her into another tight embrace.
- He buried his head in the crook of Ellie’s neck, hiding the emotions in his eyes from everyone else.
- “Alex, I broke my promise to Aaron by choosing to trust you. I didn’t listen to Aaron,” Ellie said softly.
- “I know,” Alex replied, his breath catching at the sound of her gentle voice.
- “I’ve hurt Aaron and worried my family,” Ellie continued. “If you lie to me, I’ll never speak to you again for the rest of my life.”
- Alex’s grip on Ellie tightened, his arms trembling slightly. After a long pause, he responded in a suppressed tone, “I won’t.”
