“It will be, for now. But maybe after many years, I’ll fall in love with someone else. This is impossible to say and Hudson you’ll also fall in love with someone else too. Let’s head inside and see Christ.”
“Okay.” Hudson nodded and walked into the room.
At the courtyard, Philip sighed and realized that he had lived a long life, yet not as thoroughly as Esther had. Embracing her into his arms, heartbroken, “Esther, I really don’t know what to say!”
“Then don’t say anything. You don’t need to say anything because I know it all in my heart. I love you, Philip! Thank God for allowing me to meet with you again.” Esther also hugged him back, “I believe that mom and dad will also forgive Christ. They owe him just like how I and Elijah owe Hudson. Who do we owe finally? We just owe our own love in the past.”
“He will come back.” Philip finally couldn’t resist telling Esther, but he only said this one sentence.
“I know. I know that he will come back.” Esther looked at the distant sky, closed her eyes, and buried her grief in the bottom of her heart. She wanted to wait for him with a smile and with every day filled with happiness.
Four years later.
At an open clearing halfway up the mountainside of J River in G City.
The warm spring sun shines on a flat spot halfway up the mountain. A young and stunningly beautiful woman was pushing a wheelchair, on which sat a man about sixty years old, tall, with a fairly handsome face. Only that his face was pale, and his eyes are full of vicissitudes, looking at the scenery so calmly.
The man closed his eyes, leisurely enjoying the unique warmth of spring.
“We’re finally back, master!” The woman was Esther.
“Yes, we’re back!” The man in the wheelchair spoke with a smile, “You didn’t wait in vain, Esther. Elijah has come back!”
Esther was silent after hearing the word “Elijah”.
Four years ago, Esther returned to Switzerland to accompany her master. Although her master spent only one to two months in Switzerland every year, Esther still felt very happy. In that four years’ time, she finished her Art and Design degree at the University of Bern.
A month ago, Esther saw that Elijah had returned to G City from the newspaper.
She watched the financial news on TV, and Elijah was still as silent and reticent as ever. Every time she watched the news, what she could see were his handsome side face, his slightly furrowed sword-like brows, and his cold eyes. He was much more mature than he was four years ago.
It was said that Elijah returned to Perry Group and was still the president.
It was said that he lost his memory in that four years and couldn’t find his way home.
It was said that he had now regained his memory and returned after everyone thought that he was dead for years.
