Chapter 743: Chapter 761: The Unknown Good (4)
Inside the whole suite, silence fell, leaving Ella Adams alone, sitting dejectedly on the sofa.
...
In the end, Elijah Smith really didn’t have the courage to continue staying in the corridor outside the room where Ella lived.
In the quiet night, Clarence Cooper had gone into the room three hours ago. Elijah didn’t need to think to know what the two of them were doing inside.
Elijah turned around and went up the stairs to his room, his body devoid of strength. As he lay on his bed, he stared at the crystal chandelier on the ceiling, and his heart twisted in pain.
Wasn’t this the outcome he had hoped for?
At first, knowing her stubborn nature, if she found out he had done something for his older sister, Ella would have waited without complaint. But he didn’t want her to wait, so he pushed her away mercilessly.
Now, she has a new life, wasn’t that what he was expecting?
He should bless her in his heart...
Yes, a blessing...
He chose this path, even if it hurts, he must grit his teeth and continue on.
Since the moment he killed their love with his own hands, he had lost the right to enter her world.
...
The second day, Elijah Smith and Ella Adams went their separate ways in Arandalle.
Once, he longed for her when they hadn’t seen each other. But now that they had met, knowing he had completely lost hope, Elijah’s spirits were much lower than before.
During his work meetings in the Bellshire Company, he would often lose focus, frequently reminiscing about the moments he shared with Ella.
During a company vacation at a holiday village in the Bellshire suburbs, his colleagues went fishing at the lakeside, which reminded Elijah of Ella. They had once been here together. As he thought about it, his steps became unsteady, and he accidentally slipped into the lake.
Even though it was already nearing summer, the water was still icy. Though he was a good swimmer, he couldn’t muster any strength in his limbs. After struggling for a long time, two of his colleagues finally pulled him out of the water.
He coughed several times, losing face in front of his employees, but he didn’t care. He just squatted aside, coughing with his head down, but unintentionally coughed out tears from the corner of his eyes.
Driving back to Bellshire that night, he didn’t change out of the clothes he had worn during the day, which had gotten wet from falling into the lake. As he sat on the lakeside, the wind dried his clothes. When he entered Bellshire, his body started to feel unwell, and he had no desire to eat.
Over the years, his business had grown, and he bought a separate house in Bellshire. But he had no interest in returning to it. The Smith ancestral home was now occupied only by his grandma, and he didn’t like going back either. So, he drove aimlessly and eventually ended up at the apartment where he and Ella once lived.
Five years had passed, and the smell inside the house had changed, no longer bearing Ella’s scent. However, he lay down on their old bed sheet and slept soundly, as if by chance.
He was woken up early the next morning by a phone call from the Smith ancestral home, saying that Isabel Smith was coming to Bellshire today to see Grandma. They asked if he was coming back.
These two years, work had kept him busy, and he seldom went to Ravenwood City. While he often called Isabel, they didn’t meet much, so he naturally wouldn’t miss this opportunity.
First, he went to a shopping mall and bought gifts for Isabel’s two children. He also bought a twelve-inch cake before heading back to the Smith ancestral home.
By the time he arrived, Isabel was already there. At ten years old, Raymond Thompson had lost some of his childishness but looked energetic and handsome. There was no doubt that in two or three more years, he would become a heartthrob in high school.
The little meatbun spoke in a sweet, tender voice. Seeing Elijah, he happily called out, "Uncle."
Perhaps because he had caught a cold, Elijah didn’t have much energy, but he still chatted with Isabel for a while and played with his two nephews until it was noon.
