"Joyce, cto my company and we will start a business together. What you create with your own hands will be your own in the
future. | know you don't like to depend on anyone." His voice was so gentle that it made her feel crispy.
"lI don't know anything about finance, and | can't be of any use in your circle. In fact, when | first entered college, when you broke
your legs, | had thought about studying finance and starting over with you to help you find yourself. However, my interest was not
in that area. Tried a few classes, and it didn't stick." Joyce picked up the lemon juice in her hand and took a sip. The sour taste
permeated her heart and lungs.
Justin didn't think that once Joyce had ever thought that way. What a wonderful girl he missed out on... She had tried to help him
get up physically and mentally. If he hadn't given up on himself, if ... maybe he would have hit on her a long tago.
In the end, he took the wrong path.
A sad look cinto his eyes, "Joyce, I've never heard you talk about it."

Joyce smiled.
She said only casually, "It was all a long tago."
Justin's clear eyes dimmed. The fact that she said it without any burden at this moment meant that she was no longer thinking
about it. A sinking feeling of loss crossed his mind.
"I can build a car company just for you, where you can do whatever you want." He suddenly tightened his grip on her hand in
excitement, as if he was afraid of losing it.
Joyce gently drew back her hand and shook her head, "You don't want to do that. | want to see you be yourself. You don't have to
worry about me, | actually have plans. When | first joined the board of the R&S Group, | promised the directors that | would
complete the project for the driverless concept. Now, when | am done with everything here, | want to leave the group. Anyway, it's
tforto give birth, and after the baby maybe | will choose to go abroad to further my education. Probably, | didn't think too
far ahead. Anyway, I've saved smoney and | can support the baby myself."
Justin was just about to speak.
Joyce interrupted, "You don't have to persuade me. | want to be free for now and live the life | want to live."
"Hmm." He knew her character and didn't force her.
"But don't refuse my help, in your tof need. You took care offor two years, a favor | still have to return." He emphasized
seriously.
"Okay. | will." Joyce smiled soothingly.
Now, she felt that she has been able to get along with Justin as happily as when she first met him.

Now Justin was finally back on his feet and becmature and stable.
"Justin, you've changed." She raised her eyes, and the glow of her eyes was mesmerizing.
Raising her wrist to check her watch, she let out a low scream, "| forgot the time. | should go now. I'll treat you to the next meal."
With that, she stood up, lifted her carry-on bag and left her seat.
"Take it easy, slow down. It's right across the street, be careful." Justin cared for her with amusement.
Joyce stepped out of the Thai restaurant and onto the tree-lined path.
Coldly, a person suddenly appeared in front of her, blocking her way.
She looked up and it was actually ...
Christian!
Really, it's been a long time.
