Tyler Edwards became famous five years ago. He was not only known as a supermodel but also known as an actor. His first film did well at the box office and even broke several records, and he got more opportunities after that.
His face was often plastered on billboards because he had succeeded in seizing many opportunities to become a spokesperson for various well-known brands, and his name was not only famous domestically but also internationally.That was why Jessica could still hear the latest news regarding him even after she left the country, including the man's death.It was said that the taller a tree grew, the stronger the wind would hit it. If the tree was not strong enough, it would be pushed to the ground by the wind, and that would be the end of its life.The same thing happened to Tyler in the last five years. Once he became famous in the industry, he was tempted by many things he had never experienced before. Initially, he was temptedEver since she left her hometown and started living in China, she promised herself that she would only return home if her mother asked her to. Unfortunately, even after five years had passed, there was still no call from her mother, but she decided to return this year.The reason was also because of her mother, but the woman did not personally ask her to come back. On the contrary, it was the woman's condition that made her feel worried and decided to return.Her curious children innocently asked her about the decision, and they even tried to stay in China instead of following their mother. The reason was that they only knew China as their hometown, which was why they looked confused when their mother suddenly said that they were going home.The twins were reluctant, saying that they didn't want to leave their friends in the village, but Jessica said that they would only be returning to New York for a short time and that they would definitely return to Chi
From the man Tammy hired, Jessica knew her mother's ward in the hospital, and that's why she didn't plan to go to the front desk to ask for that information. However, a security guard came to her and asked her the purpose of coming to the hospital, and she calmly said that she wanted to visit her mother. The security guard then asked her mother's name, and after she answered the question, the guard asked the girl at the front desk to check the name. The girl then said that there was indeed that patient at the hospital.The security guard no longer tried to stop Jessica, and the blonde immediately walked towards the elevator. She seemed familiar with the hospital, and that was because she often visited the hospital in the past. Yes, that was when her father was still there but was often hospitalized because of his illness, and Jessica felt déjà vu when she was back in the hospital.Jessica even felt her heart pounding against her ribcage when she was finally in the elevator that would
On the west side of the hospital building, quite close to the parking area, there was a playground for children and a small garden for adults to sit. Currently, the playground was quite busy with several children playing there, but the small garden next to it was quieter. There were several benches in the garden, and one of them was even empty. That was why Jessica and Noah were able to sit there. The weather today was quite good, and the breeze was gentle on their faces. It was Noah who invited her to speak there, but he still didn't say anything to break the uncomfortable silence between them. Instead, his eyes were glued to the children playing on the swings and slides there, and his ears were probably filled with the children's cheerful laughter. Jessica also didn't try to break the silence between them. Instead, she quietly looked at the man sitting next to her. In her eyes, Noah looked more mature with slight wrinkles on his face, and his brown ha
"They are growing well," Jessica answered in a slight whisper, without looking at her ex-husband.“Did they come to New York with you?” Noah asked again.“Mhm,” answered Jessica. “I don't plan to stay here long, but I also can't leave them in China. They are with Tammy now.”Once again, Jessica explained more than necessary, and she actually regretted how her mouth could easily say those words even though Noah's question was only simple.“So, you've been in China for the past five years?” Noah continued to ask.Jessica regretted it even more when Noah finally found out where she had been for the last five years. ‘I probably look like a loser who could only run away after making a huge mistake five years ago, right?’ She thought helplessly to herself.She still didn't look at the man sitting next to her, and that was why she didn't know what kind of expression the man was making right now. The man didn't continue questioning her e
"So, you accidentally met your ex-husband when you were going to see your mother in the hospital?" Surprised, Tammy immediately asked Jessica. Jessica had left the hospital, but she hadn't seen her mother's condition. Her feelings and mood became complicated after the unexpected encounter with her ex-husband, and she decided to go to Tammy's house and planned to visit the hospital again tomorrow. Tammy had given her her address, and she asked the taxi driver to take her there. It turned out that Matt bought a house in an elite residential area in one of the best neighborhoods in New York, and Jessica was amazed when she arrived there. After Tammy welcomed her warmly in her house, she could see her children playing with Tammy's son in the living room. Tammy's son just turned one, and his name was Kevin. As Jessica greeted the boy for a moment, she couldn't help but think that the boy looked like a copy of Matt. Even though he was still ver
This chapter contains flashbacks (this will explain the details of what happened at the end of chapter 180)....“We still have five minutes before the lunch break ends. Are you willing to give me the rest of the time? There are some things I want to ask you," not wanting to beat around the bush, Tammy immediately questioned Noah."What do you want to ask me?" Slightly furrowing his brows, Noah asked in confusion while looking at the short-haired woman sitting across from him.Tammy was sitting across from him, and she was also the one who started the conversation between them. Previously before she decided to come to the man's table, she could see how the man was talking to someone on his phone, but his expression was not clear in her eyes. The man looked serious, but at the same time, he also looked confused. That was the reason why she decided to approach him.When she finally got the chance to voice what was on her
This chapter contains flashbacks....Noah looked stunned at Tammy's question, and he didn't answer it immediately.As Tammy continued to look at him while waiting for his answer, she could see how his eyes were shaking slightly as if he was afraid of something. The subtle reaction confused her even more, and she wanted to hear an answer as quickly as possible.However, what she saw in the next second was how Noah once again looked at her before replying, “When I just met him once again after being separated for so many years, I still loved him, that's why I didn't hesitate to get back together with him."Tammy already heard an answer, and she silently underlined some parts of his answer. She then asked, “Just now you said you still loved him when you just met him again after being separated for so many years, right? Does that mean… you slowly lost your feelings for him after that day?”“…” Noah once again loo
"Are you telling the truth?""Of course!" Tammy immediately answered her friend's question. “I have no reason to lie to you about something like that, and he told me all that before you gave birth to the twins five years ago. We talked in the company cafeteria. I was the one who decided to approach him at that time after he finished talking on the phone with someone, and I also didn't expect him to tell me everything.”Tammy shrugged her shoulders indifferently, but Jessica ignored her nonchalant attitude because she was distracted by many things on her mind. But perhaps the biggest thing that bothered her was how Tammy had just told her that her husband actually loved her five years ago.Blankly, she leaned her back against the back of the sofa as she suddenly looked exhausted. Actually, her body was exhausted because she had just returned to New York from China. She had no time to rest, and now she was even more mentally exhausted because of the informat
