Chapter 214 Unexpected Gain
Melinda didn’t plan to stay in Navelie for too long. She just wanted to revisit the paths she had walked with Stanley
and the scenery they had seen together.
Those would be the most beautiful memories of her lifetime.
She kept asking herself over and over again, what feelings could come out of a brief encounter? Would she be able
to let go after some time? But every time she thought about the possibility of never seeing him again, she felt so
sad and remained silent, unwilling to speak.
After dinner, she put on her headphones and walked away, playing Savannah Zephyr’s song ‘Elowen’ on repeat.
The singer’s voice was clear, giving her a moment of tranquility in her heart.
She took the elevator alone to the observation deck they had gone to together. Most of the people were
enthusiastic couples, walking hand in hand, becoming a beautiful sight themselves.
She walked around along the railing while other tourists enjoyed the beauty of the city. Only Melinda looked up at

The night sky was magnificent, filled with countless stars and sparkling starlight. The wind was a bit chilly.
I wonder how Stanley is doing… Are the nights in Riverdale as beautiful as this? Is he taking my departure well? Is
he feeling as sad and regretful as I am? Maybe he also feels as helpless as I do. He values family so much; he must
care a lot about Jennifer’s feelings too.
Little would Melinda know that the man in question was also admiring the same starry sky. However, he was at an
altitude of thirty thousand feet, seeing the twinkling stars, and he missed her even more.
As Melinda descended from the observation deck, she walked alone on the bustling streets, facing the evening
breeze and listening to music like a wandering soul.
Thinking back to that night when they walked side by side, a hint of bitterness spread in her heart.
Is he taking his stomach medicine on time? Does he try to eat something every day? Is he busy with work! Does he
still stay up late? Is he spending time with Samuel and Pamela? Has he tried looking for me?
As Melinda continued walking, certain emotions began to stack in her heart, and she longed to control

Inadvertently, she looked up and saw the photo studio where they had developed their pictures together.
It looked unique under the warm yellow light, exuding a sense of nostalgia.
The curved entrance had some damage, with flickering lights hanging from it, emanating a beauty in its
imperfection. The outer wall also displayed some old photographs.
Melinda stopped and hesitated for a few seconds before eventually stepping inside to take a look. After all, there
were also traces of him.
The owner, a middle-aged woman in her forties with typical blue eyes and blonde hair, was a little overweight but
very sweet. “Oh! It’s you!” She immediately recognized Melinda, excitedly saying, “Weren’t you here a few days
ago to develop photos? With Mr. Fox? You are his wife!”
Melinda’s pace faltered, looking at her with disbelief in her eyes.
Although the woman spoke in Brundelian, Melinda understood what was said.
Immediately after, the owner took out an album and handed it to her. “Look! You two endorsed Miss Alice’s debut

photo together?”
Melinda took the album and opened it. On the fresh green lawn, in front of the beautiful castle, he kneeled on one

Melinda closed the album and smiled, coming back to her senses. “He’s busy with work.”
“Well, that’s understandable. He’s the CEO of a big company, after all. I wish you both eternal happiness!”
“Thank you, and thank you for the album. Melinda smiled as she put the album in her bag and exited the photo
studio.
