Chapter 9

Originally, Eleanor planned to leave this world in three months. By then, Josef would only be able to get her ashes.

But now, he shortened the time to three days, which made it hard for her to bear.

Just when she wanted to say something, Josef suddenly loosened his grip.

Having a chance to catch her breath, Eleanor swallowed back what she wanted to say.

Anyway, it’s important to find a way to slip away tonight.

Josef bent down and kissed her cheek fiercely, “I’ll go back today and come back for you in three days.”

Eleanor covered her kissed cheek, feeling extremely nauseous.

But in front of Josef, she still held back and pretended to agree, nodding her head.

Seeing her being so obedient, Josef finally let her go and walked towards the door.

Just as he reached the door, he suddenly stopped.

“Oh, right.”

He turned around, casting Eleanor a meaningful glance. “Your close friend’s name is Hailey, isn’t it?”
