This time, it was a blue flower
As always, there was a note inside the flower. It said, “May today be another happy day for you.”
He stroked the writings on the note with his fingers, and his heart suddenly softened.
It was the third day. He was planning to just wait it out to catch the person who sent the flowers to him.
However, when he stared out the window, no one came by. When he left temporarily, the flower would appear out of thin air by the window.
On the third day, it was a yellow flower.
This was written on the note, “You seemed to be in good spirits today.”
He treated the flowers and notes as if they were his precious treasures.
On the fourth day, he decided to stay by the window, not leaving a step.
He wanted to see him.
It didn’t matter whether he was a man or a woman; he was eager to see this person.
At long last, his efforts finally paid off! After waiting almost ten hours, he heard an unusual sound from the window.
He immediately opened the window and saw a figure passing by.
He saw nothing but a bunch of black hair fleeting past.
It looked like the long hair of a girl.
“A girl?” He thought to himself.
He turned and saw the flowers by the window. She still managed to give him a bouquet of baby’s breath.
And today, the flowers were the color purple, which signified romance.
The note inside the flower said, “I might be going home. There will be no more flowers in the future. I wish you all the best.”
“She’s leaving?” He pondered in disbelief. When the thought came to his mind, his heart skipped a beat, and he quickly ran out of the room like a gust of wind.
He had never run so fast in his entire life.
It was all to find the person that he had been thinking about.
Until…
He saw a little girl in front of him.
She was wearing a white dress, and her hair was tied up behind her head in a high ponytail.
In her hand was a large handful of colorful baby’s breath.
White, yellow, blue, purple…
She had every color he received the past few days.

What shocked him more was that the kraft paper that was wrapped around the baby’s breath was the same as what he had received.
“It’s her.” He realized.
At that moment, he clenched his fingers tightly. His heart which had been silent suddenly rekindled once more.
The little girl was also looking straight at him. When she saw him staring at the baby’s breath in her hand, she asked i flowers? I can give you some.”
He looked at her face and suddenly felt as though there was a baby’s breath in his heart that was blooming.

Chapter 138
This little girl was Jennifer.
That year, Christopher was 11, and he met Jennifer for the first time.
He’d given his heart to her.
At that moment, he was sure that Jennifer would be the only one in his life.
She gave him four bouquets of baby’s breath in his darkest time. Because of that, he was willing to be her guardian for the rest of his life.
“Christopher…” Jennifer’s voice suddenly sounded in his cars, pulling his thoughts back to reality,
As he focused his vision, Jennifer’s pale face reappeared in his eyes.
Time flew by so fast; more than ten years had passed in the blink of an eye.
But his heart had never changed.
He would protect Jennifer forever.
“You haven’t told me why you gave me baby’s breath,” Jennifer asked insistently, and her eyes looked curious.
Christopher’s eyes sparkled, and he replied meaningfully, “Because you gave it to me before.”
“Did I?” Jennifer frowned as she tried to recall, “I don’t remember anything at all…”
“You once gave me four bouquets of baby’s breath in different colors.” Christopher looked at the girl in front of him and reminded her in a low
tone.
“I think you remembered wrongly.” Jennifer shook her head with confusion in her eyes. “I’ve never given it to you… And even if I did give you flowers, it won’t be baby’s breath.”
Christopher’s expression froze when he heard this.
Deep in his heart, he felt something was not right.
He asked subconsciously, “Do you remember the first time we met? You had the baby’s breath in your hand…”
Jennifer tried hard to recall the incident and said, “Oh, I remember! Yes, I think so… But that didn’t mean I liked the baby’s breath. The flowers were bought by the maid from a flower seller. I took it as it looked good.” She continued, “Don’t you know my favorite is white roses?”
Christopher’s eyes paused abruptly.
His face stiffened; countless complex and profound emotions suddenly emerged in his deep eyes.
It was like a huge wave, surging turbulently.
“A flower seller?” After a moment of silence, he said lightly, with a subtle trembling in his voice.
“Yeah, she seemed to be a flower seller for selling baby’s breath.” Jennifer nodded and answered truthfully.
Immediately she noticed something was wrong with Christopher.
The man in front of her became silent like a sculpture. He looked sullen.
“Christopher?” She couldn’t help but to call out to him. Christopher didn’t answer her immediately.
At this moment, his heart was raging and his head was empty. Not only that, but his mind was also in chaos; his fair cheeks tightened abnormally.
“It turned out that everything was wrong. He was wrong, completely wrong! The girl who gave him four bouquets of baby’s breath, the girl who gave redemption in his darkest time, and the girl who swore to protect him for the rest of his life were not Jennifer, but a flower seller…” Christopher thought miserably.
“The flower seller… Who and where was she? There were so many people. How was I supposed to find her?” He wondered.
Christopher clenched his fists tightly. He couldn’t say a word.
Looking at him, Jennifer couldn’t help but raise her voice and shout, “Christopher, what’s wrong with you?” Her hand su

“I’m fine.” Christopher shook his head and answered perfunctorily. He then quietly removed his arm from Jennifer’s hand.
This made Jennifer feel a little taken aback.
Jennifer thought to herself, “Is Christopher alienating me? Why does this man in front of me feel so foreign to me?”
Jennifer suddenly had a bad feeling.
She felt that if she didn’t say something, it might be too late.
“Christopher…” Jennifer stared at Christopher with tenderness in her eyes, “Let’s be together, okay? I don’t have to fulfill the engagement with the Bane family. We can officially be together from now on.”
Previously, they claimed to be childhood friends. Because of the engagement with the Bane family coupled with the pressure from their respective families, they could only maintain such a relationship. None of them had ever clarified their relationship.
But Jennifer knew she and Christopher had always had each other in their hearts.
They loved each other.
Initially, after Oneida fulfilled the engagement for her, she should have confessed her love. But she never found a chance to do so.
Now, she couldn’t wait any longer.
She wanted to be Christopher’s girlfriend!
Jennifer looked at Christopher eagerly, waiting for his answer.
