Chapter 2044 The Wish Back Then
In the blink of an eye, the weather turned chilly.
As per the custom during a traditional festival, many were still immersed in the warm atmosphere, unable to go into work mode entirely when Christmas had just passed a while ago.
The date of Jonathan and Madilyn's wedding had been set for shortly after Christmas.
Archie and Benny were preparing a gift for their godmother's wedding.
Estella was likewise busy designing her godmother's wedding gown.
Meanwhile, Roxanne had morning sickness that lasted for two weeks, making her lament over her inability to feast during Christmas.
Right then, the iron gates of an unknown prison in Horington slowly opened.
Elektra walked out at a slow pace. Having changed out of her prison uniform, she wore a down jacket, her hair a touch disheveled.
She did not tell her family that her prison term had ended.
After bidding farewell to the prison guard briefly, she stared at the narrow path ahead that was long and winding. She could not see anything ahead, for everything was blanketed with snow.
Following a brief contemplation, she decided to phone a friend to help book her a ride.
Unexpectedly, two white cars zipped down the snow-covered road and reached her shortly after.
Opening the car door, James hurried out of the car. He pinned his gaze on Elektra and hollered, “I'm here, Elektra! Don't underestimate us though you deliberately kept us in the dark!”
Next, Jonathan also climbed out of the car. Holding the wish bottle Elektra once buried, he chimed in with a nod, “I even know that you plan on buying a flight ticket and leaving Horington after visiting your parents subsequent to your release.”
Shock was written all over Elektra's face.
A few seconds later, her eyes that exuded weariness flickered imperceptibly.
Her gaze was promptly riveted on the wish bottle.
