Theodore’s smile widened and his fingers gently tapped on the armrest of the wheelchair. He seemed
to be deep in thought. Finally, he spoke. “But what should I do? I also happen to live in this apartment
building.”
“All right then.” Ariana faked a pitiful sigh, turned around and walked on. Theodore followed.
When they entered the elevator, there were several people who all lived on different floors of the same
building. Standing in the corner of the elevator, Ariana acted like she didn’t know Theodore.
Theodore, meanwhile, couldn’t help but cast several furtive glances at Ariana, who made no response,
and didn’t even turn to look at him. She was acting like they were total strangers.
Theodore became a little sulky. He wanted to hug her so much.
Finally, they arrived at the floor where they lived. At that moment, there were only the two left in the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtelevator. Ariana exited the elevator first and walked to her apartment without even looking back at
Theodore.
“Are you not going to wish me good night?” Theodore couldn’t pretend they were strangers anymore.
He seemed on edge judging by the way he was controlling the wheelchair.
“We just met each other, Mr. Anderson. Aren’t you a bit too impatient?” Ariana asked, looking at
Theodore with detached expression.
Theodore pursed his lips and did not answer. He felt a little restless and began to regret having started
this game. This game was no longer fun at all.
He lowered his head in dismay. He had no other choice but to tun the wheelchair and head toward his
apartment.
As he tured around, Theodore heard the sounds of rushing footsteps. He whirled around to find Ariana
walking quickly toward him. An irresistible feeling of ecstasy washed over him and a charming smile
appeared on his face.
Theodore naturally reached out to hug Ariana. But to his dismay, the latter only put a piece of paper in
his hand. Then she leaned over and whispered in his ear, “Good night, Mr. Anderson.”
After Ariana left, Theodore stayed there for a while longer. A long moment passed before he finally
opened the paper he had unconsciously crumpled up. On the paper was a phone number he knew just
too well.
Beside the number was a small heart.
These few figures and a pencil drawing were enough to melt Theodore’s heart. He was overwhelmed
with unspeakable happiness.
He recalled Ariana’s mysterious behavior at the restaurant reception after they finished dinner. It turned
out that she was writing this at the time.

like a fool, his heart throbbing with extreme joy.
Even though Ariana didn’t kiss or touch him just now, and instead just whispered very common words
in his ear, he was still so excited that his heartbeat was racing.
He sensed that she chose not to be too intimate or too distant. Was this the feeling people felt when
they finally found their soul mate?
Theodore finally pushed his wheelchair into the apartment. As soon as he closed the door, he stood up
and went to the study. He thought that he would only calm down if he buried himself in work. ©
However, it didn’t work at all. Just thinking about the fact that he and Ariana lived separately with just a
wall between them made his heart race. He didn’t look like his normal self at all.
