While Serenity was stunned for a moment, John took the tissue from her and carefully wiped the water off her sleeves. Then, he pulled out a small part of her inner sleeve over the sleeves of her windbreaker a little so that the wet parts would not stick to her skin.

“Are you feeling better?” His clear voice was low and gentle.

She pulled her hand back, still feeling the warmth of his fingertips on the skin of her wrist. “Much better.” After a pause, she said, “Thank you, President Grant.” freew ebnovel.com

The immediate distance she put between them simply from her words felt as if she had just stabbed John. He pursed his pale lips and difficultly said, “Serene, we shouldn’t be like this.”

“From the moment you decided to marry my Sis, we were already destined to end up like this.” She was unfazed.

John held her shoulders and seriously said, “But you know-”

“That won’t change the truth!” She interrupted him, though rather calmly which scared John a little.

He could see the prideful stubbornness in her dark eyes. John raised his hand to cover her eyes, not wanting her to see his sorry state. “Serene…”

He called her name so softly and affectionately that she could hear the longing and infatuation. “I know I was the one who lost you. I can’t come back, can I?”

Serenity’s eyes were wide open but his hands were still covering them. She could smell the faint scent of tobacco on his fingers, lingering around the tip of her nose.

“John, let go,” said she hoarsely.

This was the first time she had called him that in the past three years. It reminded him of the past, when they were happy.

How did the two of them, who had once wished to stick together at all times, end up like this?

He didn’t want to know whether she meant for him to remove his hand or to give up on her.

The love they had would only happen once in his life. How could he let her go so easily?

He kissed her through the back of his hand as the corners of his eyes turned slightly red. “Serene, I’d rather be a Hess for the rest of my life if that meant we could go back to how we were. Then, we would still be able to stay in Willow Town even if your grandmother was no longer around and you wouldn’t have to return to Andalas. We could have been together forever.”

She pushed his hand away and looked into his eyes that was filled with pain. Serenity started to sob. “We can’t go back anymore.”

Serenity returned to her seat and Sam saw that her expression was a little off. He asked, “What’s wrong?”

She suppressed the emotions in her heart. “You’ve caused quite some damage today so I’m suffering a little.”

Sam knew that she was not referring to the meal. Since she was unwilling to say it, he did not press her and instead played along. “Hey, is the Young Madam Jones short of money?”

“Who would complain about having too much money?” She glared at him.

She called for the waiter to pay the bill and they left the restaurant. On the way, they stopped by the supermarket to buy some fruits. They were planning to visit Ms. Lewis.

If it weren’t for Sam, she wouldn’t have known that Ms. Lewis had sprained her ankle and injured her shin bone.

Sam knew Ms. Lewis’s address so they drove over. On the way there, Sam gave her a brief explanation of Ms. Lewis’s situation.

Diana Lewis’s marriage did not make it past seven years. She was now a single mother to a seven-year-old daughter.

When they arrived at Diana’s house, Sam pressed the doorbell. The person who opened the door was not Diana, but Xeno.

Serenity looked at him in surprise. “Mr.. Xeno, what are you doing here?”
