"Grandma, I don't want to live away from my daddy and mommy... I know that I won't get to see them again... What if I miss them?" her words were a bit incoherent as she forced back her sobs.

Seeing the little girl, he felt something tugged on his heart.

"Hazel," Neil spoke after a while. "If you don't want to live in the countryside with grandma, then would you like to live with me?"

A Lifetime With You

As Jamie was now working with MH Group, Neil had told Edith that she did not need to come over to the company to see him. He was worried that the two girls were going to run into each other and Jamie was going to take advantage of his girlfriend again.

Though Edith had mentioned that she was not going to let herself be seduced by Jamie, Neil was still uncomfortable to let them meet each other. In the end, Edith could only agree with his suggestion to coax him.

Moreover, Neil was going to be busy with Jamie's return to the company. Even if she came over to visit him, Edith thought that she will only distract Neil from doing his work.

However, just because Edith did not show up at the company, it does not mean that the two would not run into each other.

That day, Edith was planning to meet Aaron and had a meal with him. As Aaron was busy and stuck at the station, Edith took the chance to walk around the mall to look around.
