Chapter 1108
Baillie was left speechless, then he burst intoughter till his whole body shook.
“You’re stillughing; I heard from my friend that you set a trap for me!” Paige gave him a yful smack
on the shoulder and said, “You’d better start exining! When did you meet me? Have you known me
since I was a kid?”
She and Baillie didn’t study in the same country, so there was no chance they met then. Going further
back, Baillie was just a kid before she went abroad to study. “No.” Baillie shook his head.
“Then when?” Paige was puzzled.
Baillie looked up at Paige and said, “Give me a kiss, and I’ll tell you.”
How easy was that? Paige didn’t hesitate; she cupped Baillie’s face and gave him a deep French kiss.
“Spill it!” She was dying of curiosity!
Baillie felt a wave offort wash over him.
He nced at Paige and then at the fine weather outside the window.
He met Paige on the eighth day after he returned to his home country. At that time, Baillie was utterly
fed up with the world. He was tired of trying to seem normal. He couldn’t find a reason to stay in this
boring world. Instead of going back home, he chose to live alone in H City. He was prepared for the day
when his boredom reached its peak and he would end his life without his parents and fam
family finding out.
The night before that day, Baillie had been unable to sleep all night. He had been suffering from
insomnia for years.
As dawn broke, Baillie put on his workout clothes and sneakers, ready to go for a run, hoping the
exhaustion would bring him sleep. If he still couldn’t sleep, then there was no point in continuing to live.
He ran for a long time. He found a small park near the residential area and ran into it. The park was so
small that he could finish running around it in ten minutes. Just as he was about to leave, he heard the
livelyughter of children.
He looked over and saw a woman in a light green sun–protective shirt and ck yoga pants sitting on a
park bench. Her soft hair shone in the sunlight; her skin was fair; and under the sun, she seemed to
glow.
He didn’t know if she was also suffering from insomnia like him. She was sitting there, hugging her
knees, sleeping fitfully.
Without knowing why, Baillie went over..
“Shh!” A gentle voice came from behind him.
Baillie turned around and saw a very cute little girl covered in grass clippings.

“Brother, don’t wake up my auntie! She works really hard and takes care of me for my mom, she’s
really tired. Can you please not disturb her?”
Baillie nodded subconsciously.
The little girl quickly ran off to y with a dog.
Baillie didn’t know why, but he sat down.
The peopleing and going around him seemed to be ignored.
He didn’t know how long it had been when she finally woke up drowsily.
“Ivy~” She turned around, urately found the little girl rolling on the grass, then stood up somewhat
exasperated and said, “Oh my God! How can you be so naughty?”
Baillieughed for some reason, and when he realized he wasughing, he was stunned.
Looking towards the grass, he saw her tripping over a big dog and falling awkwardly onto the grass.
Baillie was startled and instinctively stood up to go over.
However, she who fell on the grass justy there, rxed.
Baillie stood there; all the troubles in his chest were gone.
He knew he might have found the meaning of life and redemption.
