Chapter 204

Josh seemed to have expected Jane to send him a message

He had been waiting for a long time.

Jane replied. I like it. I like it so much. Oh, my god. Josh, you’re so amazing I knew it. I knew that I would love your gift. the most’]

Josh said. [You and Yale do have a special connection. I just replied to Yale’s message. I gave him the same Christmas gift I gave you, too]

Jane replied, [Teacher means the world to us. No one can replace him. Even though I could never see him again, after so many years, I still clearly remember his face. Seeing what Teacher looked like when he was young makes me feel like I’ve traveled through time and space. It feels so wonderful ]

Jane held the portrait in her arms.

A warm feeling surged in her heart.

Josh replied with a meme of two people comforting each other. He said, [I’m glad you like it, Jane.]

Jane replied, [I do! Josh, come and visit me tomorrow when you’re free. Let’s go skiing.]

Josh said, [Sure, sure. Of course. Both you and Yale are here. No matter how busy I am, I have to make time and accompany you both.]

After Jane finished putting away Yale’s and Josh’s gifts, she was about to shower and sleep.

She was looking forward to the morning. Tomorrow would be a beautiful day.

But at that moment, her phone vibrated.

Jane thought it might be a message from Yale or Josh.

She unlocked her phone and looked at the message, only to see that it was Hugh.

Hugh texted, [Janie, are you asleep?]

Jane said, [Not yet. I was just about to take a shower. By the way, Merry Christmas. I’ll give you your gift when I get back.]

Hugh replied, [Janie, go to the hotel’s back entrance. There’s a surprise waiting for you.]

Jane was slightly caught by surprise.

After that, she sent him another message.

Hugh did not reply.

In the past, Hugh would have replied to her instantly.

“What is Hugh up to? What is he planning to do?”

Jane glanced at the time.

It was already 11:45 p.m.

Christmas was almost over.

After thinking for a moment, Jane put on a thick down jacket.

She walked past the hotel corridor. It was filled with the spirit of Christmas and a sweet-smelling fragrance.

She arrived at the hotel’s back entrance.

It began to snow.

Snowflakes danced in the sky.

On the street, some couples shared a scarf and held onto each other tightly. Their expressions were full of happiness as they chatted and laughed.

Watching those couples from the hotel’s back entrance, Jane fell into a reverie.

It was so cold.

However, there was also a sense of peace.

Jane sighed.

Her breath condensed into a ***fog in the air.

Everything was covered by snow.

Jane wondered why Hugh had called her to the hotel’s back entrance.

Hugh was not the kind of person who would pull pranks.

Just as Jane was thinking about this, she heard something.

Tap, tap, tap.

She heard the sound of a horse carriage on the street.

Jane followed the sound and looked over

In the next second…

Jane could not believe her own eyes.

Because…

She saw a ***horse

It was pulling a pumpkin shaped carriage.

It was like a fairy tale. Jane remembered the magical carriage that the Fairy Godmother made for Cinderella.

She had changed into a ***evening gown and a pair of high heels.

It was just that Jane was dressed a little less charming than that.

Realizing this, her fairytale fantasy was utterly shattered

“Miss Jane Fowler, please get in the car.”

The coachman stepped off the ***-horse carriage respectfully. He opened the door for Jane.

Jane remembered that she had seen this man before. He must be Life. He was often at Hugh’s side and was a competent, top-notch assistant. He knew everything and could do anything perfectly.

Jane asked tentatively, “Since you’re here… Does that mean that Hugh is also here?”

Life lowered his head. “Miss Jane Fowler, his instruction was that if you’d like to know the answer, please get into the car.”

She chuckled.

Hugh was apparently in the mood to do something so mysterious.

Forget it, Jane thought. At least she knew why Hugh wanted her to go to the hotel’s back entrance.

Jane decided to entertain Hugh’s request and have fun with him.

She would treat it as the perfect end to the first-ever Christmas of her new life.

After Jane boarded the pumpkin carriage, Life tugged the ***horse and began to head toward a certain direction. Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

The pumpkin carriage was warm inside.

The interior was extremely comfortable.

It was completely isolated from the cold and snow outside.

Jane leaned against the headrest.

There was also hot tea, snacks, cake, and an assortment of ****on the small coffee table.

For some reason, Jane used her phone to record a ten-second video of everything.

She sent it to Hugh.

Jane wanted to know the answer to a question.

Jane asked, [Did you arrange for all these?]

Hugh replied, [Do you like it? I can sense that you’re the same as me. We prefer simple and colorful things. When I set it up, I chose to throw away the unnecessary decorations and left behind the things

you’re most likely to take a liking to.] This time, Hugh replied to her immediately.

Life must have told Hugh that Jane had boarded the pumpkin carriage.

She could not run away anymore.

Jane texted back, [Fortunately, it’s already so late, and it’s snowing. It’s cold, and there aren’t many people outside. Otherwise, if someone took a picture of this **Horse Pumpkin Carriage, it would be a trending post tomorrow.) Hugh said, [It’s such a beautiful night, and I want to spend it with my beloved princess. I won’t let others stand in my way.] Jane said, [I see… So you did come to Meridonia.]

Hugh replied, [Yes, I’m here. You had so much fun with your senior brothers today. If it’s alright with you… Would you spend the rest of your night with me?]

Everyone had always revered Hugh.

But from these words…

He sounded as if he was pleading.

If Hugh’s business partners who had competed with him saw that sentence…

They would be so shocked that their eyes would fall out.

People said that love had always been an inevitable curse.

Hugh’s ice-cold heart would also soften in front of his most beloved woman.

It did not matter that he was mighty and invincible.

He would kneel on one knee with flowers in his hand.

All for the sake of seeing her smile.

Jane texted, [You’d rather ask for my forgiveness than my permission. You even piqued my curiosity and made me get into the carriage, so I would come to you. Am I still allowed to say no?]

From this perspective, Hugh’s actions seemed more familiar to her.

He was bossy.

Hugh replied, [I don’t want to give you any room to refuse. I want to hear you say… that you want to come to me. Janie, I want this to work. I want us, until death do us part.]

Jane saw Hugh’s message and his love talk.

Her heart skipped a beat.

She felt her body heating up quickly.

It was probably because the carriage was too warm…

Cough, cough.

[Alright. I’ll fulfill your wish, then. I’m almost there. Wait for me…]

Jane had just sent the message.

But she suddenly felt that it was too direct.

Hurry, she told herself, delete it.

Hugh asked, [Janie, what did you send? It disappeared too quickly. I didn’t see it.]

Even though Hugh had kept staring at the phone screen, Jane’s speed was astonishing.

Hugh only saw the beginning of her message, which was [Alright. I’ll…]

He did not see anything after that.

Jane thought for a moment.

She sent him a picture.

That day, Jane and her senior brothers went to the amusement park.

She took a picture of the sky.

The sky was blue, and the ***were clear.

The sunlight pierced through the ***and shone warmly on the ground.

For Jane, this was the best Christmas ever.

The people who meant the most to her were by her side.

Even the sky looked so beautiful today.

And at that moment…

This picture of the sky had a deeper meaning to it.
