Chapter 1013
On the bench in a garden in the middle of the street, Jay sat forlornly as he stared at the cars and
bustling crowd. He felt isted from the world.
He no longer had the power to keep fighting.
He no longer had the power to keep on living.
He was even starting to have doubts. What was it that motivated him to keep on living when he
survived the car crash back then?
Living was, to him, an extremely dull and boring thing.
When it was about nine o''clock, he slowly made his way to Horizon Colors.
"Mr. Ben." On the balcony, Baby Zetty cried out with excitement and iled her arms when she saw
Jay.
Jay raised his eyelids and saw Angeline and Baby Zetty wearing matching dresses-both of them
looked like ethereal fairies.
Both mother and daughter let out resplendent smiles when they stared at him.
The heavy clouds hanging over Jay''s head seemingly dissipated and he gave them a knowing
smile.
Angeline and Baby Zetty bolted downstairs to greet him. The cold treatment Jay received from
Marilyn was all made up for by Angeline and Baby Zetty''s
hospitality.
Angeline walked over with a warm vegetable soup. She was walking very slowly because her eyes
could not see.
"Mr. Ben, have this vegetable soup made by Baby Zetty and me. Give it a taste and see if you like
it?"
Jay went forward to greet her and took the vegetable soup from her hands. When he received the
warm vegetable soup with a growling stomach, he thanked God for showing him such kind favor.
He took a sip elegantly and was curious as to why it tasted a bit strange. "Did you put spices in it?"
Angeline exined with a smile. "Yes. They''re all spices that are good for the stomach."
Jay was slightly surprised. This was made especially for him.
Baby Zetty tugged at the hem of Jay''s shirt and echoed her mommy''s words, "There’s also fennel in
it."
A hint of confusion rose in Jay''s eyes. "Fennel?"
Angeline broke intoughter. "It''s for my bloating."
Baby Zetty twitched her mouth. Mommy had lied to Daddy.
By putting fennel in the soup, Mommy was trying to hint to Daddy that once he smelled the familiar
scent o f fennel, he would know that it was time for him toe home.
Jay had just finished drinking the vegetable soup when Baby Zetty reached out to take the bowl.
She said, "I''ll wash the bowl, Mr. Ben. You can talk to Mommy for a while."
Baby Zetty hurried into the kitchen and closed the kitchen door behind her.
She wanted to create a warm and romantic environment for Mommy and Daddy.
Jay helped Angeline to the couch like a gentleman and even asked her with concern, "Are your
eyes better today?"
Angeline said with a smile, "It''s much better. My vision isn''t so dark anymore."
Jay looked at Angelina''s beautiful eyes. When he noticed her breezy smile, he could not help but
ask," Can you tell me what actually motivates you to wait so tirelessly for him?"
Angeline furrowed her brows slightly. His voice sounded low and weighty, an indication that he was
feeling dispirited and moody.
He was in a terrible mood.
He rarely put on such a pessimistic demeanor since childhood.
Angeline pondered for a moment and answered, "Well, as soon as I think of the moment I get to
meet the man who I think is worth waiting and loving, then I think that all the waiting is worth it."
Jay said, "What if, and I mean what if, he doesn''te back?"
Angeline said, "He once said that I''m the reason why he’s alive. If that''s the case, he''ll swim to me
like a fish regardless of where I am because only I can supply him with the oxygen necessary for
him to survive."
Jay asked, "Do you firmly believe that his love for you i s unwavering?"
Angeline nodded. "I believe in him."

These were four simple yet powerful words.
Jay fell into silence.
He was touched by her persistence and trust.
