Only you in my love novel Chapter 733

After they had left the coffee shop, Michelle was absent-minded as though her soul had left her body. Her eyes were empty, and at night, she stared blankly at her ceiling.

Every day, she would think long and hard to the point she barely noticed time passing by. It took a lot of soul-searching for her to truly know what she wanted. She went to her manager and handed her notice of resignation. Upon receiving it, the manager sighed and shook his head.

She asked if ever she had to pay for something before she left, but the manager told her not to worry about it.

Michelle was able to terminate her contract without paying anything.

During the early days of winter, Michelle came to her parents and showed them a document. "Dad, Mom, I want to go abroad and study photography."

When they heard what Michelle had said, Adams and Elaine were dumbfounded. At first, they were hesitant and confused why Michelle was suddenly interested in photography. They thought their daughter liked e-sports the most and wanted to pursue it as a career.

Michelle had been thinking about this for a long time. She had even asked her friends for advice on how to deceive her parents. They told her that the most effective way was to mix her deception with a little bit of truth.

So when Michelle faced the scrutiny of her parents, she knew already knew what to tell them. "I'll be retiring from the e-sports club sooner or later. After all, I can't play games my whole life."

She continued to beg her parents and acted like a spoiled child just so that they'd approve her request. In the end, despite their reservations, they had no choice but to give in to Michelle.

Before she left, Michelle went to the coffee shop and sat outside where there was a clear view of the LC Hotel. In the morning, she saw Leon wearing a suit come out of the revolving door. Valerie was beside him.

And in the evening, she saw him tightening his necktie as he was walking back to the hotel. Even from a far, she could see her tired expression.

The photos that Michelle had taken were both blurry even though she was only across the road and the quality of her phone's camera was top-notch. Perhaps it was because of her trembling hands. Or maybe it was her eyes slightly marred with tears.

At night, she went to the apartment and stayed there for a while.

Even though it wasn't that late yet when she returned home, both her parents had already gone to bed since they want to wake up early in the morning and see her off.

Michelle took out the writing papers she had bought back in high school and wrote her first long letter. She thought of how to start her letter and decided by making fun of the fact that the writing papers she had bought finally became useful.

Once she was done writing her letter, she left with her luggage.

Her flight was supposed to be tomorrow morning. However, she didn't think she could handle saying goodbye to her parents, so she decided to leave in secret. Aside from that, what she had told her parents wasn't the same with where she was actually going.

Since all of her friends knew Leon, she didn't want anyone to know where she was, nor did she want anyone to contact her.

She wanted to forget about Leon. She was afraid that if people knew, they might tell her something related to him.

Michelle boarded the plane at night. Upon entering the cabin door, she wasn't feeling dejected. But rather, she was excited about the future ahead of her. She imagined what studying abroad would look like and all the possibilities it might hold.

It was the first time she had been away from home ever since she was a child.

However, this was different since she was alone and going to a faraway place.

While on the place, Michelle had been very quiet. She sat there like a lifeless porcelain doll. Her eyes looked droopy, and she hadn't eaten anything ever since boarding.

The passenger beside her couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you hungry? I haven't seen you eat anything."

Michelle looked down and avoided the passenger's eyes. "I want to eat strawberries. They don't have any here."

The plane flew across the sky and left Lexingport City. This was the farthest she had even been away from Leon. But she was glad. Now, she wouldn't be disturbing his life, and she would no longer grow upset from thinking about him.

It was a pity that she hadn't eaten the strawberries that he had planted for her.

Although it wasn't Leon who personally planted those strawberries, it was still something he thought of for her.

Three years had passed. Michelle looked up at Leon's handsome yet familiar face, and all of a sudden, the words from three years ago echoed in her ears. Just like that, she was in a trance again.

Now, she was standing before Leon, whom she hadn't seen for a long time. He was asking her to take him in again.

Michelle opened her mouth and almost agreed.

However, the low-key and luxurious environment of the room stopped her from speaking.

They were not under her apartment building. They were inside the castle John had built for Nina.

Three years had already gone by.

Although she hadn't heard the news yet that Leon and Valerie got married, she had witnessed the two of them being together.

If she let Leon stay in her place, that would cause some unwanted rumors.
