Emelia didn't sleep soundly for Julian's confession by using the UAV.

Whenever she closed her eyes, she would see the shiny scene in her mind. From time to time, she recalled the birthday cake and her photos. Although she didn't remark, she had remembered every scene. Those was the romance that her loved man gave to her. How could she not remember it all?

However, the more clearly she remembered it, the sharper the pang in her heart became.

They loved each other, but they couldn't be together. No one could understand how suffered she was.

While she was tossing about, Nina, who loved surfing online, clicked her tongue. "Julian's drone confession has appeared on the trending news."

Emelia was utterly sober. She sat up in a hurry with tense nerves.

Nina passed her phone to Emelia. While the latter bowed her head to read the news, Nina said, "Fortunately, the staff of the resort were sensible. They only uploaded the videos without mentioning it was prepared by Julian for you. They only mentioned a bigwig had confessed his love to his girlfriend and how romantic and beautiful the scene was.

"By the way, we were in a daze, so neither of us thought of recording the scene on our phones. The staff recorded it down. I like their shooting angles a lot. You should save it."

Emelia accepted Nina's suggestion. No matter what her relationship with Julian was now, the scene was the romance he gave to her. Hence, she decided to keep it as a souvenir.

However, Emelia was afraid to be on the trends. Many netizens kept discussing who they were in envy and jealousy.

Fortunately, they focused on guessing the actresses or celebrities who had birthdays recently. For the time being, no one thought about Emelia.

Breathing a sigh of relief, Emelia gave the phone to Nina. "I do admire how mentally strong the superstars are. No wonder many artists suffer from depression."

Nina giggled, taking the chance to brainwash her. "In fact, leading a worry-free life is quite nice."

Emelia glanced at her. She knew why Nina said those words. Nina wanted her to be worry-free without overthinking and be reconciled with Julian.

However, Emelia couldn't be worry-free when facing Julian.

She believed that he deserved a better woman than her.

Hence, Emelia pulled up the quilt and covered herself. "Let's go to bed, Nina. Aren't we going to ski tomorrow?"

There was a ski field in this hot spring resort. They planned to go skiing the following day.

On the following evening, Emelia returned to Riverside City with Nina. Vincent and Naomi agreed with Emelia to go back to visit Julian's grandfather. Thanks to his care and love for Emelia all over the years, Emelia could keep her dignity in her marriage with Julian.

Early morning, in the ward of Grandpa Hughes, Riverside City Hospital.

Grandpa Hughes was having the congee brought by Julian. Glancing coldly at Julian, he asked, "Haven't you moved to the Capital? Why did you come back?"

Julian mentioned moving to the Capital to his grandfather earlier, and the latter knew the reason. He kept heaving sighs but didn't complain or stop Julian.

Julian said calmly, "Even though I've moved to the Capital, I need take care of you."

His grandfather snorted. "Think I don't know what your purpose is, huh? Did you tell Emelia I was sick again? You came here to wait for her to drop by, didn't you?"

"Silence is an art that you should learn about, Grandpa," Julian retorted.

The old man snapped, "Get out of here!"

Of course, Julian heard it but still sat still.

He would stay here no matter what his grandfather would say to him today.

He had received a message from Nina earlier, who said that Emelia and she had arrived at Riverside City the previous night. After getting up this morning, Emelia would definitely come to visit Grandpa Hughes.

Julian believed that she wouldn't only drop by but also cook breakfast for his grandfather.

His grandfather had eaten the food he brought here, so the old man wouldn't eat Emelia's food. In that case, Julian could have a chance to eat it.

The old man took several sips of the congee. He heaved a sigh and said, "Alas... It's actually my bad.

"If I hadn't insisted on bringing you two together, those heartbreaking things wouldn't have happened."

Since forcing Julian to marry Emelia, he kept expecting Julian could replace out how decent Emelia was. He felt relieved as his grandson could have a family eventually, but much to his surprise, something unexpected happened to Julian's marriage.

If Grandpa Hughes hadn't been strong enough, all things happening recently to the Hughes family would have struck him down.

Julian stared at his grandfather and said sincerely, "Grandpa, no matter how my marriage has ended, I know you did it for my own good in the past."

He knew his grandfather was the only one treating him nicely in the family.

It was pretty rare for Julian to speak such sincere words to his grandfather. The latter was taken aback.

Then he sighed and said, "I didn't expect you to understand my purpose. It turns out love can make a man grow."

Julian used to hate him to the core because he had forced Julian to marry Emelia.

Julian didn't speak again. His grandfather continued to eat.

After finishing breakfast, the old man saw Julian bend his head to browse the message received. Then Julian stood upright and tidied up his clothes.

His grandfather instantly understood― Emelia was coming to his ward soon.

He felt amused and annoyed by Julian's behavior, so he said in jest, "Do you think it's because of your appearance that she doesn't want to reconcile with you? "No matter how handsome you look, she won't spare you a glance."

Julian instantly stood up and walked to the bathroom solemnly upon hearing his words. He looked in the mirror and tidied up his clothes and hairstyle.

His grandfather was wordless, wondering if Julian was doing it purposely.

When Julian had just left the bathroom, there was a curt knock on the ward door.

He took a deep breath and walked to open it.

Somehow, as soon as he thought he would meet Emelia soon, his heart hammered.

They had married for a couple of years, but why did he still feel nervous now?

When the ward door was opened, Emelia, holding a lunchbox, saw the tall, sturdy, and stern-looking man in front. She stiffened and asked, "Why are you here?"

Right after asking, Emelia regretted it. Of course, he should be here with his grandfather.

"I'm here to see Grandpa," Julian answered her solemnly. Then he moved aside to let her enter.

Seeing the old man on the bed, Emelia ignored Julian and strode to his grandfather.
