Love's Redemption (Chris and Maddie) novel Chapter 370

I was surprised that Brandon had agreed to her request, but his agreement made my heart ache even more.

He clearly didn't want to, yet he still respected Ellie's wishes.

Perhaps afraid that Brandon might change his mind, Ellie immediately took out her phone and registered online. Watching her carefully fill out the registration information, I realized that she carried incredible energy with her. This energy was positive, uplifting, and full of gratitude.

"Brandon, let's sign up together too." I couldn't help but make my decision as well.

Brandon looked at me, and even Ellie paused her registration. "Mae..."

"Alright," Brandon agreed without hesitation and pulled out his phone.

"Bran, Mae, you guys..." Ellie seemed both excited and uneasy.

That was just how people were. Ellie could be stubborn when making decisions for herself, but when it involves others, she couldn't easily accept it.

But in the end, Ellie didn't try to stop us. Instead, she turned her unease into a smile. "Bran, Mae, let's apply together then. Hopefully, we'll stay healthy for decades and won't need to use this."

She made both Brandon and me laugh. I teased her by asking, "So, your grand act of love is just a formality and not from the heart?"

Ellie played along and said, "Mae, let's just keep that between us."

What was once a tense and heavy atmosphere turned into something lighthearted after Brandon and I decided to join in.

"Bran, Mae, come on. Let's celebrate. Let's celebrate that we are all loving people, and let's wish for our safety and health." Ellie raised her milkshake.

Brandon and I each took a cup and clinked it with hers.

"This is so good. It tastes so sweet," Ellie sighed after drinking.

Seeing how easily she was satisfied, I silently prayed in my heart that her surgery would be successful and that she would stay healthy and safe.

Brandon cooked something delicious for Ellie. We were worried that she might feel lonely eating alone. Thus, we planned to stay and eat with her.

"Don't do that. If you eat here, you won't be able to eat much at dinner later, and that would be a waste." Ellie laid out her little plan so clearly that it didn't even come off as annoying.
