If it were Henry, Josie would definitely find the house too chilly and scary.

But Samuel was different.

"Your bathtub." They were in an apartment in the highest condominium in Derport. Floor-to-ceiling windows surrounded the place, so the beautiful night view was fully shown. The large bathtub was next to the window, and it seemed to blend perfectly with the city view.

"It's so nice to be rich... They can enjoy the night scene while soaking in a warm bath," Josie thought.

Josie bit her lips and followed Samuel. "This house is so nice. If I only pay you the rent rate of rental apartment, it's probably not even enough to rent this bathtub, right?"

"Look, it's scary for me to live alone in such a big house. If you come to accompany me, my sisters and parents won't nag me every day about getting married. If Grandpa is happy, he might forgive me, and I'll be able to regain my position in family. I'm willing to suffer a loss for that to happen, Samuel explained with an adorable,

pouty face.

He was so tall and handsome, but acting cute surprisingly suited him, too.

Nevertheless, Josie coughed awkwardly and asked, "Where is your room? May I have a look?"

"This way." Samuel held Josie's hand and opened a door inside Josie's bedroom. The door led to his bedroom, which also had massive floor-to-ceiling windows with clean, white curtains. His room looked warm and elegant at the same time.

"Why is there a door between your bedroom and my bedroom?" Josie asked helplessly.

The door was clearly installed there deliberately.

Samuel raised his eyebrow and smiled slyly. "What was the designer thinking? Why is there a door here?"

Josie rolled her eyes and walked out of the bedroom. She sat on the high stool in the open kitchen and said, "Samuel, I'm hungry.

Samuel changed into his casual outfit. Though it was loose, it made him look more down-to-earth and reachable.

Everything felt like a dream to Josie. Even when she Had closed her heart that was broken by Henry, she found that it was slowly opening and warming up to Samuel. "Samuel, I'm thirsty."

Immediately, Samuel poured water for Josic.

The temperature of the water he poured for her was always just right.

"Samuel. I want some fruits."

Hearing that, Samuel opened the refrigerator door, revealing the fresh cherries he had asked someone to buy in advance. Josie's eyes turned red as a lump formed in her throat. She felt like she was the type of person that would become increasingly greedy if someone spoiled her.

Once upon a time, it was she who took care of Henry so thoughtfully. At that moment, she seemed to see herself in Samuel.

Henry was truly spoiled by her.

She believed that if Samuel continued to treat her so nicely, she would also be spoiled one day.

"Do you want spaghetti or chowder?" Samuel put a plate of fruits in front of Josie and leaned against the table like he was having a photoshoot, trying to exude his charms. This was what Mandy had taught him.

According to Mandy, no woman could refuse a handsome man.

"Chowder," answered Josie.

As Josie loosened up, she started to be picky.

She was no longer as reserved as before.

"Samuel... Josie called out hoarsely while watching Samuel bustle around the kitchen. "You're going to spoil me."

She used to be very willful.

Before she turned 15 years old, Hayden and Kathy spoiled her so much that she became a fearless, troublemaking girl. However, she closed herself up after turning 15. Samuel also reminded Josie of Hayden.

Back then, Hayden doted on Kathy and was extremely protective of her.

He was a wealthy family's son who had never endured hardships, but he resolutely gave up the right of inheritance to keep Kathy away from suffering. He took her to a small town by the sea and lived an ordinary life.

He treated her romantically every day, making the best out of their life.

Josie lived in such an environment for 15 years.

"It's going to take some time to cook the food. Come with me." Samuel wrapped his hand around Josie's finger and ate the cherry she was holding.

Instantly, Josie's ears turned red.

Then, Samuel led Josie to a door. He opened it and pushed her inside before quietly turning on the lights.

The room had floor-to-ceiling windows on three sides, while the remaining side was covered entirely in mirrors.

The curtains were light and thin, and even the ceilings were made of glass, making the starry sky seem just within reach.

There was a long handle by the window, and the flooring was specially designed for dancing.

At one glance, it was clear that the spacious room was furnished to be a dance studio.

"This is my gym, and this is your dance studio.

Josie glanced at the room beside, which was full of gym equipment.

Her legs felt a little stiff, and Josie could barely bring herself to move.

This was probably the kind of dance studio her mother had dreamed of.. 12.50 Thu, 9 May

Chapter 115

"L... I haven't danced in years," Josie choked out. She learned to dance from her mother at the age of three until she was fifteen.

For the next ten years after that, she lost a sense of herself as she had all her focus on Henry.

"Jo, this is a talent gifted to you," Samuel said to Josie with a smile.

Hearing that, Josie was in a trance for a moment. Hayden had also said that to her once.

He had told her, "Jo, you inherited your mother's talent in dancing. Dancing is the expression of one's soul."

At Hofcaster Hospital, Cecilia and her assistant stayed outside the ward and didn't dare to fall asleep.

Cecilia and the assistants were truly frightened by Henry's car accident this time.

"Did Mr. Gibson wake up?" the male assistant asked in a low voice.

He woke up once and kept calling Ms. Yates' name, but... I know she won't come here, Cecilia answered.

Cecilia lowered her eyes and went on, "Ms. Yates is very disheartened that Mr. Gibson decided to let Quinton off this time. But Mr. Gibson did that for her... Do you think I should tell her the truth?" The assistant shook his head. "Let's wait for Mr. Gibson to wake up."

"Jo... Jo..."

In the ward, Henry kept calling Josie's name.

How he wished he could see Josie by his side when he woke up.

He had been sick and drunk before. Every time he woke up, Josie would lie beside him, and she would take care of him all night.

But this time, Henry woke up to an empty ward

He was all alone.

Henry felt his eyes burn with tears, and he sat up while enduring the pain from his injuries.

He wanted to see Josie..

He knew Josie would surely be angry that he let Quinton off, so he wanted to explain.

Josie returned to the rental apartment early the next morning to pack up her things. She would join the crew with Sebastian to experience farming for a month and determine whether she was suitable for the role,

As soon as Josie walked out of the elevator, she was startled to see Henry leaning against the corner.

"Henry? Josie gasped and walked over quickly.

"Why did he come here instead of staying in the hospital?" she wondered.

Raising her hand, she touched Henry's forehead and found him burning

"Don't leave me....

Henry had sneaked out of the hospital on his own. He had always been wise and calm, but he sneaked out at midnight because he worried Josie would misunderstand. 12:00_1110, 5 May

Chapter 115

However, Josie wasn't at the rental apartment the night before.

"Don't abandon me. I will obey everything that you say...'

As Henry said that, his thoughts were pulled back to the past. "My mom won't leave me alone. She will come to pick me up..

At the age of five, Henry was left alone at the gate of the orphanage by Hazel.

That day, Hazel had suggested playing a game with Henry. "Sparkle, I'll come and pick you up if you stay here for 365 days, okay? I won't abandon you. I'm sorry... I have no other choice. Throughout the entire year, Henry did not talk to anyone. He was counting the days until his mother would pick him up.

However, days and years went by.

On his third count of 365 days, John appeared. With a smile, he asked if Henry would like to go home with him.

"I have everything at home. Would you like to come home with me?"
