At once, Jared's figure emerged in Selena’s mind as she shyly stated, “Mom! | already have someone | like...” Olivia instantly saw through her daughter. “And that must be Young Master Jared, am | right?” “Though, | never had a chance to approach him. Selena nodded, seemingly disappointed.
As such, Olivia thought that as long as she could drive Ellen away from Jared's side, her daughter would stand a chance to introduce herself to him. “Just wait a little longer. Once | get Ellen married, I'll be tending to your marriage.” Selena bit her lips and said, “Damn Ellen! How does she have so much luck, receiving Young Master Jared's favor? What does she have that | don’t?” Hearing that, Olivia subconsciously remembered the heart within Jared's body, wondering. Are there really such supernatural incidents in the world? Is Ellen’s brother pairing them up in the heavens? It wasn’t until Ellen was arriving at her hthat she woke up from her sweet dream. And when she opened her eyes, she realized that she had been lying against Jared while she was sleeping during the entire journey.
Instantaneously, her face reddened as she awkwardly thought, | didn’t drool, did I? “We're almost at your place,” Jared noted. He then grabbed a few unfinished boxes of chocolates and handed them to her. “For you.” “I can’t have these.” Ellen couldn’t bring herself to accept the expensive-looking boxes of chocolates.

Later, the bodyguard stopped the vehicle by the apartment gates, after which Ellen alighted from the SUV. After rolling down the window. Jared waved her goodbye before leaving.
Sweet warmth arose within Ellen’s chest. Jared emanated the classiest, most perfect manners, and hanging out with him certainly felt comforting and cozy, as though it BB: the breeze of spring.
Meanwhile, in the SUV, Jared withdrew his smile and questioned the bodyguard in front of him. “Did you report this to my father?” “No, but we hope that you won't be as stubborn next time. At least allow us to protect you in your ventures.” The bodyguard let out a sigh.
Jared was aware that his parents were overprotective of him, and that was all because of the car accident ten years ago. He gently clutched his chest. The heart that was currently beating within him was actually of another person.
Even now, he had never seen a photograph of the donor, and all he knew was how grateful his parents were toward the family of the donor and how they treated them as though they were their own relatives, lending them their hands whenever they were troubled. However, his parents forbade him from interacting with the family.
Therefore, to this date, he didn’t know what kind of people his parents were helping.
Nonetheless, since the adorable Ellen is from that family, they must be kind people as well! Jared was astounded by his feelings toward Ellen. It was as though he felt an overwhelming urge to get closer to her on their first encounter. It was as though her smile was contagious, and whenever he saw it, he, too, would feel joyous.

Who's this?” “Ellen, have you forgotten about me? It's me, Harvey! The caller sounded rather surprised, after which he proceeded to ask, “Did you not save my number?” Indeed, Ellen didn’t save his number. In response, she subconsciously asked, “What's the matter?” “It's the weekends, the twhen we young ones should go out and have fun! Come, I'll bring you somewhere fun,” Harvey invited.
“Sorry, | went hiking with a friend this morning and I'm exhausted. | don’t think I'll join you tonight,” Ellen refused.
“That's no problem. I'll drive you. We'll go have a delightful dinner.” Harvey was passionate, and insistent on taking her out.
“Sorry, but | really don’t wanna go out. Thanks.” With that, she immediately hung up. Although she didn’t want to upset Harvey, she didn’t want to have anything to do with him either.
“Aww, con, Ellen! Your uncle and my father are the best of friends! We can be friends too!”
