Sigrid slightly bowed her head without a word, just gazing at the coffee tool in the distance, “Jason, do you like coffee?”
Following her gaze, Garett glanced at it “Occasionally
Sigrid gave a small nod and fell silent
Garett didn’t quite get it, but he didn’t pry, just quietly watched Eleanor enjoying her dessert.
Since her visit yesterday. Garett slept an extra hour and had a sweet dream. In it, he and Eleanor fulfilled their youthful promises,
got hitched, had kids, and loved each other till the end of time.
Waking up, Garett looked at the moonlight outside the window, picturing dream him as Bernard, finally stepping out of the
dreamland.
Seeing Sigrid not bringing up the treatment plan, Eleanor glanced at her After Sigrid gave her a ‘no rush look, she asked Garett,
Jason, can you show me around your crib?”
Their exchanged glances didn’t escape Garett’s notice, but he didn’t mind, nodding, “Follow me.”
As Sigrid stood up, she lightly held Eleanor’s shoulder, “Eleanor, you didn’t eat much breakfast, have some dessert first.”
Eleanor caught on immediately – Sigrid wanted a one–on–one with Garelt. So, she nodded, “Garell, you show her around, I’ll
grab a bite first.”
Still pondering the appellation, Garett’s smile was a bit bitter, “Whatever you fancy, just tell Yilia, don’t hold back.”
Eleanor obediently responded and lowered her head to continue eating, not daring to look at Garett. Compared to yesterday, she
was more aloof today.
Garett, noticing all this, guessed that she must’ve had a spat with Bernard after leaving his place, and they made up later His
expression was a mix of joy and sorrow He led Sigrid through the corridor to the backyard. Despite the summer, there were
plenty of flowers. The warm wind carried à noseful of floral fragrance.
Sigrid, taking in the scent, felt relaxed, “Jason, your place is like a beautiful botanical garden”
The garden was filled with all sorts of flowers, each carefully tended to, full of life even in summer.
After leaving Eleanor’s sight, Garett’s refined face turned cold. “Ms. Laurence, speak your mind,” he said sharply.
Observing his sudden change in demeanor, Sigrid raised an eyebrow. “I didn’t expect your this side.”
Sitting in his wheelchair, Garett propped his elbows on the armrests and looked at Sigrid under the umbrella. I’ve always been
the same,” he replied. His demeanor was consistently reserved, though slightly softer when dealing with Eleanor and Hailey
However, with women he wasn’t close to, he remained cold and distant
He had advised Bernard not to be cold and indifferent to others at his wedding because he saw his own reflection in Bernard.
Garett knew from his own experience that he should cherish opportunities and not let them slip away
Sigrid, present for charity work, didn’t want to delve into Garett’s personality and went straight to the point. “I just want to ask, if I
can help you overcome your blues, would you cooperate?”
Garett gave a nonchalant smile. “I know my condition best. You can’t help me, and I don’t want to get over it.” For him,
overcoming his depression would mean letting go of his feelings for Eleanor He had done so once, and it led to both of them
missing crucial moments in each other’s lives. He was unwilling to repeat that mistake. Seemingly understanding his thoughts,
Sigrid frowned. “I know you don’t want to let go of my sister–in–law, but have you considered her feelings?”
Garett frowned, “My issues have nothing to do with her”
Sigrid straightened up, looking at the stubborn man, “But your leg, your blues, they’re all linked to her. Eleanor always feels
guilty, thinking she caused your problems. She feels awful just mentioning you. If you don’t get over this condition, start fresh,
she’ll live her life in guilt for you.”
