Chapter 0299
After sending the message, I felt a huge sense of relief. I wasn’t sure if was telling Nicholas to keep his distance or reminding myself to do so. Every time I was with him, my heart felt uneasy.
In any case, I decided that my future was going to be with Pets,
When I returned to the hotel room, I couldn’t sleep. Perhaps I had slept 199 much while being unconscious. Lying in bed, I decided to browse for houses › in Lexion City,
I texted Pete, suggesting that we move to Lexion City together. After that decision, I kept thinking about what to take from Radiant City. No matter how hard I tried, only Nicholas came to mind.
I wasn’t missing him. It felt more like a grand farewell to my past. I had finally made up my mind to say goodbye to it once and for all.
I didn’t expect Pete to reply. But around midnight, he dropped a bombshell on me. He had bought a house and put it in my name,
I joked that he was the second person to buy me a house, and he seemed visibly displeased, I knew what he was thinking–probably that Nicholas was the first. But Nicholas wasn’t that generous.
I quickly clarified that it was my dad who bought me a house. Pete pretended to be unbothered. He explained that he wasn’t upset, and I didn’t understand how amazing this feeling was,
Staring blankly at the ceiling, my mind was unusually clear. I understood perfectly well. I just missed that spark of excitement.
But adults didn’t need excitement in their lives. They just needed to be responsible for their impulses.
ested we visit Lexton City tomorrow to see the house, but he vaid things weren’t settled yet. He owed me an explanation.
1could only compromise and arrange to meet him in Lexton City a week leter
