After Eight Years of Courting the Disabled Monk’s Son Chapter 4
  • Jessica barged in.
  • She carried a fruit basket and smiled at
  • Elijah.
  • “You’re really here.”
  • “Mr. Hayes, thank you for saving me.”
  • She set down the basket and produced a
  • black rosary.
  • “I found this on me after you saved me.”
  • Elijah gently took it, his expression tender.
  • “Are you okay?”
  • A sharp pain pierced my heart.
  • My existence felt absurd.
  • Once, I accidentally touched Elijah’s rosary,
  • and he threw me out.
  • He’d coldly said, “That’s not for you to touch.
  • Know your place.”
  • Yes, I knew my place.
  • I was nothing to him.
  • Jessica washed some strawberries and fed
  • them to Elijah.
  • He ate them.
  • He hated strawberries.
  • His first love had died while picking
  • strawberries.
  • Lying in bed, I felt a crushing weight in my
  • chest.
  • Soon, I’d lose all my emotions; I wouldn’t feel
  • this pain anymore.
  • “Mr. Hayes, who’s she?”
  • Jessica asked, looking at me.
  • Elijah hesitated, his gaze complex.
  • After a moment, he said, “She’s my
  • assistant.”
  • My assistant.
  • I clenched the sheets.
  • I’d been his caregiver for eight years.
  • An assistant.
  • I didn’t argue, just lay there.
