Chapter 216
“Garet
The boy, wearing a white shirt, sat under the shade of a tree, head down, reading a book. The sun’s
rays filtered through the gaps, casting a soft glow on
him.
The sweet voice of the girl echoed from outside the campus, gradually getting closer, “Garett, I came to
your school to see you.”
Upon hearing the voice, the boy looked up and saw her jogging towards him, A smile slowly spread
across his face, Watch out and don’t run too fast” As soon as he warned her to slow down, she sped up
even more. Her wilful appearance made the boy unable to resist getting up and catching her. Holding
her, he gently rubbed her nose, “You have a heart condition, yet you still run so fast, you’re such a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdisobedient girl.”
The girl wrapped her arms around his waist, nestling her head on his chest, and whined, I take my
meds every day Actually, I’m quite well-behaved.” The boy softly chuckled. His gentle face and eyes
were full of her, “Eleanor, your school is quite far from the University of A. It’s tough on you to travel this
much. Next time you want to see me, just call me and I’ll visit your school, alright?”
She lifted her head from his embrace and said considerately, “You’re already so busy with your studies,
never mind that. I’ll come to see you whenever I’m free
The boy wanted to persuade her, but was cut off by her, “Garett, I met someone outside your school
just now. He was covered in blood and seated under a tree. I don’t know who had hurt him, but I saw
he was pitiful, so I gave him a bottle of water. He didn’t even acknowledge me though.”
After finishing, she pouted her lips, “Do you think he’s some weirdo?”
The boy affectionately ruffled her hair, “If you say he is, then he is.”
Only then did the girl satisfyingly raise the corners of her mouth in a smile.
The boy also smiled and held her hand, walking side by side under the sunlight, amid the gentle breeze
and chirping birds amongst the blooming flowers. Eleanor slowly opened her eyes. Garett from the
dream was gone, and so was the sunlight.
The faint light in front of her was dim, barely illuminating the surroundings.
She looked around in confusion. There was a white ceiling, a crystal chandelier, and an endless sea
outside the window.
These scenes were blurry, which made her realize that she wasn’t dead.
She wanted to move but found herself unable to do so. Trying to speak, no sound came out. It felt as if
she had been asleep for a long time and her body couldn’t bear the sudden awakening.
She stopped struggling and obediently lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling lost in thought.
She had clearly died, so why did she wake up? Hadn’t she gone blind? Why could she see a little?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhere was this strange place? Why weren’t Hailey and Garett there?
As she pondered, footsteps approached from outside the door. The sound of leather shoes stepping on
the wooden floor creaked.
The door was then pushed open from the outside, and a tall figure holding a razor walked in slowly
Eleanor’s eyes followed him, her gaze meeting a pair of deep, profound eyes.
When the figure saw her awake, his pupils slightly enlarged, and an incredulous look appeared on his
face.
He unconsciously quickened his pace, taking two strides to reach her bedside. His tall, slim body bent
down slightly.
Now that the distance between them was so close, Eleanor could clearly see his appearance.
His skin was smooth, features were bright and elegant, and his eyes carried a deep luster. His thin lips
had a faint hue.
His face might have been gentle, but his eyes were incredibly deep. It felt as if they hid a galaxy full of
stars, unfathomable and impossible to see through
