Several photos seemed to have been taken sneakily as the shooting conditions looked
immature. However, due to Helen’s beauty and Matthew’s gentlemanly behavior, the photos turned out
pretty good.
There seemed to be a subtle understanding between the two. Their smiles were in sync when they
naturally turned to nce at each other.
Half an hour ago, Helen posted a photo to social media. It showed Matthew in a suit and leather shoes.
He had his left hand around Helen’s shoulder and held a ss of wine in the other. He was looking
back at Helen with a calm and soft gaze, making one feel happy for them.
Such a gentle exchange of looks made me believe they would have a wonderful future together.
The most heart–fluttering part was the apanying words, “Time stops whenever I’m with you.”
Through the years, Matthew and Helen had grown from beingplete strangers to being dependent
on each other.
Matthew must have been moved by Helen’s wholehearted devotion.
Indeed, being loved single–mindedly by such a beautiful young woman for so many years would soften
even a heart made of stone.
This reminded me of Colin.All content is ? N0velDrama.Org.
He had always been a calm person. I’d never seen him post anything on social media. I had once
asked him why.
He said if he were to encounter a really hard problem, the likelihood of finding a solution online was
extremely low. If it was just to express his feelings, it was akin to unnecessaryining. Speaking
out directly would be more helpful in solving problems.
He said he wasn’t young anymore, so there was no need to waste time.
I had always thought that him iming he wasn’t young anymore when he was still under 30 was just
an excuse. In reality, he just hadn’t encountered something or someone worth posting about.
His close friends around him always said he was the calmest man in the world. He was so

dull and boring that he might end up not getting married. Colin would justugh it off each time. He
would say fate was predestined, and God would not let such a devout believer remain alone forever.
During the years with Colin at Lincoln University, I tried many times to get him on social media. I even
prepared posts for him, but he always refused. He said if he found the woman of his life one day, he
would make his social media debut with her.
I couldn’t remember what I felt when I heard this back then.
But this boring and calm man surprisingly posted something tonight. He wrote, “I like waiting for you the
most.” The attached photo showed two hands holding each other against a background of two
blooming roses that were radiant from the sunlight.
Therger hand was slightly tanned and had strong knuckles, while the smaller one had long, slender
fingers with fair and delicate skin. The two hands holding each other showed power and beauty
coexisting. Theyplemented each other, creating a highly aesthetic visual.
The appearance of the roses stirred something in me. It reminded me of the long rose corridor at
Lincoln University.
There were many happy memories of Colin and me in that beautiful corridor.
However, I couldn’t understand what Colin meant by the post.
Back then, I was especially naive. Ipletely missed Colin’s intentions and eagerly wanted to meet
my future sister–inw. I looked forward to the day he would post on social media. Now that he had
finally made a post, it was a photo of him holding someone else’s hand.
And my feelings were not as joyous as I had anticipated. Rather, there was a bitter sadness.
Something seemed to block my chest, and I was unable to do anything about it. It was just obstructing
there.
Looking at the photo, I immediately thought Colin deliberately made this post and it was targeted at me.
I thought I had reason to suspect that he was using this method to tell me he had found the
woman of his dreams.
