Chapter 747
Garett’s finger paused on the page of his book. After a few seconds, he slowly swiveled his wheelchair
to face Hailey
Hailey, what brings you here”
1 came to see you”
She moved to sit across from him at his gesture
They sat in silence, their eyes revealing a longing for a long lost sibling They were both on the verge of
tears.
“Garett, how are things in B City?” Hailey was the first to break the silence, her voice full of concern
“Not bad,” Garrett responded. He closed his book and placed it on the table beside him. Then he
ordered some tea for Hailey

“Sure To Hailey what to drink was secondary Seeing her little brother was what really mattered
The conversation fell into silence again. All their previous talks revolved around Eleanor. Bringing her
up now would be inappropriate. Were the three of them destined to drift apart
forever?
“How are things with Cedric?‘ Garett asked
“We broke up” Hailey had a file bag in her purse, unsure of how to return the gift
What about you? Did you get engaged to Ms. Herman?”
At that moment, Yilia brought the freshly brewed tea Garett poured some for Hailey.
1 called off the engagement, Garett simply replied without further explanation. Hailey got his drift. Her
hand froze as she reached for the teacup.
“Garett, you didn’t lie to Eleanor just to spare her feelings, did you?*
Garett poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, and smiled at Hailey. Try the tea. Do you like it?”
He clearly didn’t want to talk about it anymore Wisely, Hailey didn’t press further. She took a sip of her
tea and shot him a wry smile
1 remember you used to love strong coffee when you were studying Why the switch to tea?”
“I used to drink coffee to stay awake, to make every second count. I would read as many books as I
could in the limited time, thinking it would make me richer. But what true wealth is, I’m still figuring it
out”
He leaned back in his wheelchair, holding his teacup, quietly looking at the tea.
Even someone as exceptional as him could get stuck because of emotional entanglement.
Hailey didn’t know how to respond. Her heart felt heavy and uncomfortable
Perhaps the most pitiful person in the world is Garett
The woman he had loved had left him. His once-healthy legs were now useless.

He was alone, sitting in a garden in B City, far away from everyone, possibly spending hundreds of
days and nights missing the woman in his heart.
But no one responded to him with the same enthusiasm as before, running towards him without
hesitation
Garett had once received Eleanor’s unconditional love And it was because he had experienced it, that
he found it so regrettable, so hard to let go
Hailey thought she would have a hard time accepting it too. But no one could truly understand Garett’s
feelings.
So she didn’t know what to say. She couldn’t comfort him, but she couldn’t not comfort him either. She
sat across from him, feeling helplessly lost.
“Hailey, did you come to return a gift?”
Garett seemed to sense her discomfort. He hid his emotions and put on a faint smile, looking at Hailey
