Jared couldn’t help but look at her a few times. with concern, fearing that she would really sink into


    depression out of anger. “Wanna grab something to eat?” he asked. “No.”


    “Then what are your ns after this?” Ellen replied, “I’d like to buy a small house and settle down in a


    small home.” Her ns for the future were simple.


    If she managed to get the 7.5 million from Connor, she would be able to stay unemployed for a long


    time, during which time she could do whatever she liked.


    “Which area do you prefer to buy a house in? I can go house-looking with you,” Jared immediately


    replied. Of course, he would buy the house for her, too. No matter where the house was located and


    how expensive it was, he would buy it for her as long as she liked it.


    Ellen replied, “It’s not necessary. I can go house- looking myself.” She knew the man’s intentions.


    Although Connor and his family had kept the obvious gains for themselves, she wouldn’t ask the


    Presgraves to show her their gratitude.. After all, the Presgraves had shown them enough gratitude.


    “Ellen, I want to return your kindness. Just tell me if you want anything. I’ll satisfy you,” Jared replied


    frankly. Even if she didn’t bring this up, he would return her kindness from now on in every way


    possible.


    “I don’t want anything.” Ellen shook her head while regretting what she had said to the man yesterday.


    She apologized, ‘I was too impulsive yesterday. I lost my mind after Selena suddenly said those things


    to me. Don’t take it to heart.”


    “Why would I me you for that? I’m the one who should apologize. I actually didn’t find out the


    donor’s identity for such a long time. Had I learned sooner that it was your brother, I would’ve shown


    you my gratitude already instead of tarrying until now. It was my fault for being stupid, Jared replied


    remorsefully. This whole thing was my fault. I was too slow.


    Ellen pursed her lips for a moment. Then, she shook her head, saying, “I wouldn’t me your for that.


    Besides, I’m proud of my brother for saving your life.”

    “Speaking of it, Ellen, it was magical that my heart pounded when I firstid eyes on you. It was like I


    was destined to get to know you. Do you still remember?


    You were carrying such a big garbage bag at the golf course that day. The instant I saw you, I felt that I


    couldn’t bear to see you like that,” Jared said. Ellen smiled in surprise. “Is that so? Was it that


    magical?”


    Jared nodded; he believed that it must be the case, “It’s true. I think yourte brother must be hoping


    that I can take care of you and protect you on his behalf.” Ellen was moved by his words. I’m so lucky


    to get to know him! she thought.


    “Why don’t you stay at my ce for the time being until you find a house? Your suitcase has been


    delivered to my ce, anyway,” Jared said, making an excuse. He had insisted that Stanley take


    Ellen’s suitcase to his ce this morning.


    Indeed, Ellen had nowhere to go. She replied with a nod, “Well, then, I’ll bother you for a couple of


    days. Once I find a ce to stay, I’ll move out.”


    Jared didn’t want her to hurry, though; he was willing to let her stay at his ce for the rest of her life.


    “Okay!” He was delighted. I’ll make use of this period to soften her up into letting me take care of her


    for the rest of her life. What reason do I have for not taking care of her? It was all thanks to her brother


    that I could stay alive, after all.


    Jared thus took Ellen to his home. Even the scenery around them seemed to be wonderful along


    the way, and she rxed a bit as a result.


    That afternoon, Connor called a real estate agent to put his family’s house up for sale. The real estate


    agent told him that the houses in his neighborhood were in high demand and sold very well on the real


    estate market, so the house was valued at a little over 8.5 million, which was already the highest selling


    price.


    Connor did some calctions. If the house could really be sold at 8.5 million, he would have to give


    Ellen 7.5 million and pay the mortgage’s outstanding bnce with the remaining one million.


    However, the outstanding bnce was about 1.7 million, which meant he would have to fork out


    another 700,000. Because of that, he decided to sell his car, too. This time, he was really going to sell


    everything they had. He didn’t even know where to get money for his family’s living expenses in the


    future.


    Olivia shut herself in the room while crying her heart out. Now that she looked at this house, she was


    really reluctant to part with it. Still, however reluctant she was, she had to take the consequences into


    consideration. Ellen would bring a suit against them, and perhaps she and Connor would have to go to


    jail.
