Even soon, they wonât be in the same city anymore!
At that time, even if she hoped to bump into someone on the street one day, it would have been a luxury.
Suddenly, a hand grabbed her shoulder and pulled her into a warm embrace.
âIâm sorry, Veronica,â Grace said. This child had been protecting Mason since she met her at the age of 7, watching over her small frame.
However, now it is their own son who has caused the child so much sadness.
âWow!â Veronica suddenly burst into tears, as if she wanted to cry out all the pain that had been suppressed for days.
Grace held Veronica like this, apologizing repeatedly with a heart full of pity.
As the seasons changed, Mason went abroad to study after graduating from high school, while Veronica also got accepted into a university in another city.
She deliberately applied to a university in another city for the sake of getting away from all the hustle and bustle of Emerald City.
Maybe in an unfamiliar place, she can find some relaxation.
On the other hand, since Grace visited Veronica, her father and stepmother havenât been pressuring her to reconcile with Mason. Veronica doesnât know what the Reed family said, but itâs still a relief that theyâre not bothering her anymore.
As Veronica boarded the high-speed train departing from Emerald City, she turned her head to take one last look at the hurried crowd behind her.
Perhaps in the end, people will always pass by each other.
I donât know if she will see Mason again in the future. If she does, she hopes he will be happy.
And even if he forgets, the feelings they once shared will always be cherished in her heart, carefully preserved and never forgotten.
Mason⦠Goodbye!
Veronica silently said to herself that leaving Emerald City was also a way of saying goodbye to everything in the past.
However, even though Veronica left Emerald City, Grace and Jasper still keep in touch with her frequently through video calls and such. Especially Grace, who cares about Veronicaâs life outside of town, which makes Veronica feel very warm.
Jasper expressed some regret about Veronica going to study in another city. He whispered to William, âActually, there are many good schools in Emerald City too. Veronicaâs college entrance exam scores were good enough to choose a school here. Why does she have to go to another city?â
âPerhaps for her, a change of environment would be better,â said William.
âBecause of Masonâs situation? But Mason has already gone abroad,â said Jasper.
âBut Emerald City has many places that Mason has been to, and she sees them every day. Itâs bound to be a painful reminder,â said William.
Jasper was taken aback and then said, âIs it possible that Veronica doesnât plan to come back to Emerald City?â
âThatâs something for the future, who knows?â said William. âMaybe after graduating from college, sheâll come back again. Donât think too much about it.â
âOh,â muttered Jasper.
âThe college entrance exam is coming up soon, so you should focus more on your studies,â reminded William.
âBy the way, which university are you planning to apply to for the college entrance exam?â Jasper asked curiously.
âStanford University,â replied William.
Jasper was taken aback. âYouâre planning to attend university in Emerald City?â
Jasper paused, âAre you planning to attend college in Emerald City?â
âMhmm,â he said. After four years of college, he didnât plan on separating from her again.
âHow coincidental, I also plan to apply to Stanford University,â
said Jasper.
