Ellen shook her head and insisted, “I don’t need rest. I can do this.” Jared disagreed, “If your brother


    knew that you are tiring yourself with that injury, he’d feel bad. Take a seat and let me do it.” He


    sounded authoritative in hisst sentence.


    Dazed, she stood aside and pressed against her bleeding finger as she watched him work on the


    weeds. Although he had never done anything simr since a young age, he wrapped up the chore


    perfectly. Soon, the grave was clear of weeds.


    The bleeding on Ellen’s fingers had stopped. She ced the bouquet in front of Kevin’s headstone and


    took out a wooden box. She lit up some candles andy out the decorations in front of the headstone.


    Jared was looking at her when he felt a dull pain in his chest. He reached out and pressed against it


    lightly-the pitiful sight of Ellen made. his heart ache.


    Thanks to Jared’spany, Ellen did not spend too much time cleaning the grave. After the visit, she


    went down the hill with Jared. At the foot of the hill, he grabbed a first-aid kit from the SUV trunk and


    disinfected her wound again.


    To ease things for her, he lifted her and seated her in the trunk. She sat there and received his help


    with the dressing. The bodyguards in the vans nearby did note down to disturb Jared, as no one


    wanted to ruin the perfect atmosphere.


    When Jared was done bandaging Ellen’s wounds, he brought her downtown where they had lunch.


    After that, they went to a pet store. He had decided to buy her a cat as apanion after sensing her


    loneliness on that day.


    Ellen had always wanted a cat since she was a child, but she could not raise one because of her living


    arrangement. Now that she had the time and space for a cat, she would love to have one.


    Jared allowed her to pick her pet, and she selected a Ragdoll. To her surprise, she learned that the tiny


    cat was priced at 9 thousand dors. Holding the cat, she was dumbfounded at the price, but Jared


    paid for it without hesitation. Not only that, he bought all the essories and food for the cat.


    Ellen went home with her new pet that day, and Jared followed along to help. The presence of the cat


    was healing for her, and she could not let go of it when she reached home.


    A childlike Ellen had been giving all her attention to the pet, causing a certain someone to feel


    neglected and upset. When the cat ran up to Jared, he scooped it into his arms and sessfully got


    Ellen toe into his embrace.


    He caressed the back of her head, and his hand traveled down to her waist. She was too focused on


    ying with the cat and did not notice his advances. He gulped and kissed her on the cheek, making


    her blush.


    Smiling, he muttered, ‘Are you picking the cat over your boyfriend now?”


    She realized that she had neglected him, for she did not even offer him a ss of water after he


    arrived. She smiled at him and said, “I’ll get you some water.”


    “Iced water,” he rified. Without iced water, it would be hard for him to put out the fire that was burning


    in him.


    She grabbed a bottle of iced water from the ice box. At that moment, the cat started meowing for help


    from Jared’s arms, seemingly out of fear. She put down the bottle and went over to “save” her cat.


    Dressed in a ck suit, Jared looked imposing despite his young age. It was not surprising that even


    pets would be scared of the vibe that emanated from him.


    “Alright now. Take good care of your cat. I’ll need to drop by the office.” He stood up with the bottled


    water in hand. She sent him to the entrance with the cat in her arms. There, he suddenly rubbed the


    cat’s head and said, “Okay now. Daddy’s leaving! Have fun with your mommy!”
