Lahat ng Kabanata ng Yearning for Her Return : Kabanata 731 - Kabanata 740

It was silent.The awkward atmosphere filled the air.David’s sharp interpretation of her thoughts had left Rebecca speechless.Any explanations were futile at this point.David didn't rush her for an explanation either.He was still smiling gently. His tall figure was planted in front of Rebecca. He looked at her without saying a word.After a while, Rebecca, who was sitting on the stool, couldn't bear the weight of his deathly gaze anymore and finally spoke. "I'm sorry."Apart from apologies, there was nothing else she could possibly say.She couldn't explain this feeling of annoyance, not even to herself.All she could be certain of was that this feeling of annoyance started to grow when she began to avoid David.It was as if the confession had wiped away the withered grass that covered the truth that was buried deep under.When there was nothing to hide under, the naked emotions were the only things left.There were no other reasons.All she could do was apologize.Th

David frowned.The car that had just started abruptly stopped in the middle of an empty road. A speeding car rushed past from behind. It probably did not expect another car to suddenly stop in front of it. The driver swerved and avoided an accident. As the car passed David, the driver rolled down the window and shouted a few expletives at David.However, David was completely unaware of this.The call remained connected, and aside from continuing to talk and asking more questions, David couldn’t think of any other thing to do. But there was no sound coming from the other end, only a cacophony of noise as if someone was stepping on the phone. The sound was anxiety-inducing.David had a grim expression on his face. He ended the call when the police officer tapped on his car window. He then dialed another number....Not long after Rebecca returned to the dining room, the meal was finished, and people started leaving.They had ordered quite a spread of dishes on the table, but t

Rebecca's gaze remained fixed on the lanterns. She was trying to memorize the scenery.Such scenery was something she had never seen before in other countries.Even during the New Year celebration, what she had seen in other countries was not as impressive as the sight in front of her now.As for Seardale, a chaotic and lawless city, it naturally didn't have culture like this.It didn't even have its own culture, let alone the culture of the country she was from.In the past, when she read about the concept of returning to one’s roots, she didn’t understand it. She believed that life was a journey and that it was the same everywhere. It was only after traveling thousands of miles that she realized the meaning of those words.She didn't want to go back to Seardale anymore."Shall we take a stroll around here for a while?" asked Caleb.He didn't rush to interrupt Rebecca's thoughts. He watched as her gaze slowly shifted away from the scenery in front of her before gently probing

Carissa didn't allow herself to get too comfortable with her drastically increased wealth. Instead, she quickly organized her life. Carissa quit her several part-time jobs, which usually helped sustain her living. She redirected most of her time to hosting live streams and stopped offering services to game with her fans. After all, many only paid to play with her for entertainment. Her skills and in-game awareness would only dwindle if she spent too long on such services.So, she packed her schedule with training sessions instead.After the qualifying matches, she usually had training game sessions with people on her friend list. She could also broadcast those gaming sessions as live streams, so her income increased by the day.Generating online traffic was easy for her. Whenever she hosted a live stream, one fan watching would eventually bring in more groups of people.Carissa stopped hosting live streams for a long time after her income stabilized. In her spare time, she would

Carissa continued planning for her life after having a big cry.Apart from her original practice schedule and finding a partner to train one-on-one, she added an hour of live streams to earn more money. A career in the gaming industry was indeed unstable. Carissa had also experienced days when no one would watch her live streams in the early days of doing it. The worst part was she had to pay for her electricity usage.No matter what, Carissa made it through to today. So, she seized the chance to earn as much money as possible. Otherwise, things would be less stable once she retired, and society would lose its buzz for her. Without earning enough money, she could only obey her parents' wish to marry someone and have children.That would be terrifying for her. Although Carissa wasn't against marrying, she still feared it because she wasn't prepared and hadn't met the right person.She could only earn as much money as possible while she was young. That way, she could give herse
