Chapter 120
Jeremiah parked the car in the yard, turned off the engine, and quietly watched her.
“Paulette.”
“Huh?”
The girl looked up at him, then lowered her head again, and said softly, “I’m fine, I just thought of yesterday, I’ll be okay after a while.”
“Really?”
“…for real.”
“I’m going home.”
Jeremiah got off the car first, took two steps with his long legs to the passenger seat, opened the door, and said with a hoarse voice, “I forgot something, go inside, I’ll get it for you.”
From that angle, Paulette had to look up to see his face.
The light shone from behind, backlighting him, his silhouette enveloped in a golden glow, then spreading outwards in all directions, some of it falling on Paulette.
Half bright, half dim.
This scene was absolutely charming.
The sea of stars in Paulette’s eyes shimmered, and then she snapped out of
- it.

“Oh, okay… What is it?”
She unbuckled her seatbelt, not knowing what to say, but still
instinctively trying to ease the tension, “I don’t remember having anything with you.”
Walking in, Jeremiah walked beside her, clearly seeing the blush on the girl’s ear.
Paulette.
I used to be really shy.
He chuckled softly, with a hint of indulgence about to overflow in his
eyes.
Larissa saw them come back and immediately started preparing dinner. Her menu changed every day, but the one thing that never changed was how delicious it tasted. Paulette couldn’t stop cating every time, and always felt regretful after finishing.
Larissa just looked at her kindly and smiled.
“How great it is, in this life, the most important thing is eating.”
“Paula, you need to eat more. You’re too thin now. If you gain a little weight, your immune system will get better.”
“You didn’t eat much anyway, isn’t this a normal amount of food? Look, we all ate more than you.”
Paulette was half skeptical, “Really?”
Larissa: “Really.”
Jeremiah: “Really.”

Paulette knew they were just comforting themselves, but whether they would gain weight or not was another story. Anyway, good food can cure sadness, and she felt much better.
After taking a shower, Paulette remembered that Jeremiah said he had something for her.
I came out of the room, and a magnetic voice was coming from the study.
Paulette walked over and pushed the door open a crack, just as the conversation inside was ending. She stuck her head in, her bright eyes. shining, and said, “Hey, can I come in?”
Jeremiah stood in front of the desk, holding a phone in one hand and with the other hand in his pocket.
He heard a sound and turned his head slightly.
The scene in front of him was etched into his mind like a painting.
The girl had changed into pajamas, half of her body leaning into the door, her messy hair casually falling down from one side of her neck, her face encompassing all the features he liked, her eyes seemed to hold a starry. sky, stunningly beautiful.
Jeremiah’s eyes darkened a bit, and his throat moved involuntarily.
For a while.
He said in a hoarse voice, “Of course.”
Paulette thought she was bothering him, stuck out her tongue, and came in and closed the door.
“If you’re not done yet, I can wait a bit, no rush.”

“I’m done.”
Jeremiah put his phone on the table.
Turning half–leaning, “You said.”
“You didn’t say you forgot to give me something?” Paulette reached out her hand, “What is it?”
With her reminder, Jeremiah suddenly remembered that he had indeed forgotten something. He walked around the desk and pulled open a drawer, taking out a box from inside.
“This.”
Paulette looked at him, then glanced down at the box in his hand.
This…
Is Jeremiah going to propose to her?
Paulette bit her lip, feeling trapped in this situation, the redness in her ears becoming more pronounced, “Um…aren’t you going to say something?”
“Huh?”
Jeremiah looked puzzled, “Open it and see?”
Okay, sure…
Although the proposal was not like in the TV dramas, their marriage was already extraordinary. He was just grateful to realize this.
Take another look at that face-

Um.
It’s not just good, it’s like hitting the jackpot.

Paulette spent half a day psyching herself up before finally reaching out and taking the jewelry box.
Her fingertips were trembling slightly.
Opened.
was stunned right after that.
Jeremiah looked at her stunned expression, his dark eyes flickering slightly, and explained, “I had actually fixed it last week. Zachary said he would mail it, but I wasn’t too sure. And there was some work to be done over there, so I took some time off to go check it out. Take a look at how it turned out.”
This can’t be fixed anymore.
