Chapter 454

Joyce returned to Eden Apartment in a daze.

When she got out of the cab, she saw Justin waiting for her downstairs.

He was wearing light gray casual clothes and white sneakers today,

and he looked youthful and refreshing today. She froze, in a trance, as

if she had traveled back to the day when she just met him.

When he saw her coming, his handsome face showed a shiny smile

and he hurriedly walked towards her.

It was just getting dark, and her arrival was like the brightest light in his

eyes, shooting straight into his heart.

"Joyce, you're finally willing to see me." Justin stepped forward and

gently held her shoulders with both hands. When he saw that she did

not avoid his hands, only then did he dare to hold her arms, afraid that

she would just disappear.

Joyce nodded, "Sorry, I was busy with work the other day and really

didn't have time."

In fact, Justin was obviously much more of a gentleman than Luther,

and would always ask her for her opinion before doing anything, and if

she didn’t nod, he would never force it. He was unlike the overbearing

Luther, who entered her house without her permission and violated her

wantonly. More importantly, he took it even for granted!

She shook her head. Damn it, why did she think of Luther again and

compare the two of them.

"You haven't eaten yet? I'll take you to dinner nearby. I know a

restaurant that has a very special dish in a quiet, refreshing and tasteful

setting.” Justin wrapped his arms around Joyce and carefully pulled her

close to him.

"No need to go to that trouble, let's just go to the congee store across

the street, I don't have much of an appetite.” Joyce returned

indifferently.

"Good." Justin answered instantly.

The two of them went to a congee store opposite Eden Apartment.

Although the store was small, the décor looked elegant and the store

looked clean. They then asked for a seat and both sat down.

Joyce ordered a beef congee for herself and a fish and chip congee for

Justin.

"Joyce, you still remember what I like to eat.” Justin was slightly

excited, his eyes overflowing with soft light, his face swept with infinite

warmth. When he broke his both legs, she took good care of him, she

knew all his preferences.

Thinking about it, he couldn't help but blame himself.

He blamed himself for not holding on to her at that time, giving up on

himself, wallowing in the pain of becoming an invalid, and bringing her

into the abyss with him. It was clear that she had already treated him

with such care, what else did he want?

Now, he was satisfied to have a chance to just see her.

“Yeah, you like fish, of course I remember that.” Joyce put down the

menu, closed it up and put it aside. She answered him graciously,

"After all, we lived together for over two years, how could I forget your

preferences.”

"Joyce..." Justin's thin lips twitched slightly, wanting to speak.

Joyce interrupted, "Justin, you don't have to take it to heart. I won't

forget how good you were to me once. I took care of you until you

healed, when you broke your legs because of me more than two years

ago. And it was just what I should do. I am glad to see that you have

recovered. Otherwise, I would always feel regrets."

Justin was at a loss for words, should he tell her now the truth about

how he had broken both of his legs two years ago? In fact, it was not

directly related to her. For a long time, they both misunderstood, and he

used this incident to tether her for two whole years, who could do

nothing but to take care of him. Although, he also only recently learned

about the truth. But his heart was still full of guilt.

He hesitated for a moment and said, "Joyce, the two years when I

broke my leg, I know I have done many things wrong and made you

sad. Please listen to my explanation, actually ..."
