Chapter 25
Edwin opened the door for Judith gentlemanly. So Judith thanked him and got in the car. Edwin started
the car and waited for Frank. Frank’s voice on the phone was relatively loud. He seemed to be very
angry. After a while, he hung up the phone in rage and got in with the car door being fiercely pulled open.
Seeing Judith in the car, Frank was a little stiff at first. He embarrassedly withdrew his gaze. Noticing the
slight change in Frank’s expression, Edwin said nothing but got them on the road. Judith found it quite
uneasy with Frank sitting aside.
It was said that Frank hated girls.
Some people even doubted whether he liked girls or boys. They said that it was very likely for him to be

had sat in the same car today. And they were now even sitting side by side. Obviously, the rumors were
not true. Judith was a little uncomfortable. Suddenly she saw a strawberry-flavored lollipop between their
seats! She smiled and asked, “Mr. Taylor, can I have a lollipop?” Gazing at her deeply, Frank picked up a
lollipop and unpacked it, and then handed it to Judith, His warm gesture made Judith smile. “Thank you,
Mr. Taylor! I always feel that the strawberry, flavored lollipops are particularly sweet and have a taste of
happiness.” Frank was shocked by her words! The sweet voice of a girl crossed his mind. “Frank, here
you are. It’s a strawberry-flavored lollipop. Try it! It contains the taste of happiness.” He did not like
sweets. At that time, his mother had left him. During that time, he was so dispirited that he did not want
to do anything. To make him happy, Jodie always tried everything to cheer him up. She would even stuff
the food into his mouth if he refused to eat. Frank took a deep breath and said in a slightly trembling
voice, “Why do you feel strawberry flavored lollipops have a taste of happiness?” He had also asked
Jodie this question back then,
Judith replied without thinking, “The sweet taste gives me pleasure!” Did people need a reason for like
something? But she was also in puzzlement of the reason why she especially liked strawberry-flavored
lollipops! With the lollipop in her mouth, she softly rotated the stick with her slender fingers.
Her eyes were gentle and her red lips were as seducing as cherries. It was as if she was inviting him
“Frank, you’re so stupid. That’s because the sweet taste makes me feel good!” Their answers were so
similar. Frank stared at her with his dark eyes. His fists clenched together in excitement. Edwin glanced
at who was about to lose control of his emotions Frank in the rearview mirror. The setting sun shone on
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhalf of his handsome face, and the loneliness on it became more and more obvious. Edwin knew that
Frank was very excited at the moment.
Edwin was afraid that the bigger hope Frank had, the more disappointed he would be. He wouldn’t take
Judith as Jodie, would he? When Jodie had the accident, she was already over six years old and already
had memories. There was only one possibility that she had not come back for so many years. She had
died. They all understood it, but no one said it out. This was Frank’s spiritual ballast, the only hope to
support him to stay alive. He wanted to find Jodie and bring his mother back to his side. This was also
the reason why he worked so hard for money. Sensing Frank’s burning gaze, Judith felt somewhat
uncomfortable, so she looked out of the window. Under the setting sun, the traffic was like a tide. It was
rush hour, and the traffic was in a jam. To Judith, she suddenly felt that it might be much more
comfortable walking than sitting in the same car with Frank.
