Aveline glanced over at Selena and asked, “Did you stay up all night?”Selena looked like a ghost as she wandered down from the balcony, still in her pajamas, with dark circles under her eyes. “Yeah,” Selena muttered, her voice thick with exhaustion. “Couldn’t sleep.”Aveline set a plate of breakfast on the table and gestured for her to sit. “Come on, eat something. We can talk after.”Selena nodded and sat down, but her mind seemed elsewhere, her gaze unfocused as if she were still lost in her thoughts.Aveline sighed softly, knowing the weight of the decision that lay ahead for her friend. “Let’s figure this out after you’ve had something to eat and maybe some coffee.”Selena gave a weak smile. “Yeah, maybe coffee will help.”They both knew there were no easy answers, but for now, breakfast was as good a start as any.”You haven’t slept all night?” Aveline asked, surprised.Selena nodded and moved closer, wrapping her arms around Aveline.The chill from her skin seeped through, and her voice sounded muffled as she spoke. “I thought it over all night. I really do like Aaron, but it feels like his feelings for me are more about interest than love. Maybe one day, if he finds someone more interesting, he’ll just like her instead.”Aveline gently patted her head and asked, “So, what are you thinking?”Selena shook her head, her expression clouded with uncertainty. “I don’t know.”Aveline continued, “I’ll probably leave Cloudflare City for Larbor City in about three months. Do you want to come with me?”Selena looked puzzled. “What are you going to do in Larbor City?”Aveline replied, “I’m going to find my parents.”Selena immediately perked up. “Of Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ƒind ηøᴠel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.course, I’m coming!

But here’s the plan: come with me, and once we reach Larbor City, you’ll catch a flight from there to another country. This way, Aaron won’t be able to reach you, and you can avoid all the trouble you’re worried about.” Selena blinked. “So, your plan is for me to run away?”Aveline met her gaze. “What’s the alternative? Stay and face the constant hassle from the Fletcher family? Live in fear every day?””I don’t want that kind of life,” Selena immediately shook her head.”Exactly,” Aveline agreed. “So, you can choose to leave. You’ve got three months-maybe it’ll be enough to prove something, or at least help you let go.” Selena was quiet for a long moment before finally nodding. “Alright, I get it. I’m hungry.”Aveline offered, “I’m making pasta. Want some?””Yes, yes, yes!”Later that day, Aveline interviewed a few candidates who seemed promising. She noted them downand sent their details over to Maria, wanting to see what she thought.
