Chapter 59
The sea breeze was slightly chilly that night, and there was also rainfall at midnight.
Josie did not sleep through the night as she sat by the window, gazing at the falling osmanthus outside.
After putting or her coat. Josie stretched out her hand to catch the fallen leaves outside the window.
When Josie was a child, her father planted an osmanthus tree. Josie’s father mentioned how he wanted his precious daughter to smell the fragrance of the osmanthus when she woke up.
Josie smiled. It was as if these perfect moments happened only yesterday.
The next morning
It was clear that Samuel also could not sleep as he was already sweeping the leaves in the courtyard before the sun rose.
Since it rained during the night, the sunlight in the daytime was rather pleasant.
Josie’s eyes were a little swollen as she walked out of the door. “Good morning.”
“Good morning.” Samuel was still the same. It was as if he was not the guy who confessed his love the night before.
On the contrary, Josie did not feel embarrassed at all. She then went to see Cyrus with Samuel, and they left some gifts and money on their visit.
“If you want to come back next time, I’ll come with you.” Along the way, Samuel glanced at Josie.
In response, Josie nodded and said, “Thank you.”
Cyrus had given Josie and Samuel many local specialties, including dried fish that Cyrus dried himself, alongside radishes and vegetables Cyrus planted.
“You’re able to move in today?” Josie saw the things Samuel carried in his arms and wanted to chuckle.
Yep. Samuel replied without showing much emotion.
Josie suddenly felt like taking a picture of Samuel. That rustic-style woven bag paired with a handsome man who was six feet two inches had unexpectedly brought about a different vibe.
“Thank you, Samuel. I feel very happy,” Josie said.
After getting on the return bus, Josie looked out the window in silence. She initially thought she had lost the chance to come back to this place in her current lifetime.
Josie was constantly running away, but she finally mustered up the courage to face things head-on.
Memories were things that could bring about utter anguish but were also precious to someone.
It was because it was what one used to have that was why it was precious and beautiful
“Did you know? A shooting star is beautiful because it disappears quickly and leaves only a dazzling trail behind,” Josie whispered. It was as if Josie was asking Samuel and muttering to herself simultaneously.
Samuel felt so sorrowful that he did not say anything

Samuel hoped that Josie would be able to continue to live her life.
The three and a half hours long journey was a slightly bumpy ride.

Chapter 59
In the meantime, Josie leaned against the window and fell asleep, whereas Samuel carefully slid his hand under Josie’s head
Things were quiet on the long-distance bus ride, except for a few elderly folks who got off the bus along the journey. Soon, only Josie and Samuel were left.
Staring at an already adeep josie, Samuel’s gaze became more complicated.
What exactly
Samuel about to do to Josie?
“Jo everyone knew you’re Samuel’s girlfriend after the class reunion party. There were even p a p a r a z z i taking pictures of you guys. That’s just appalling. Madelyn quipped
Madelyn was at Josie’s rented apartment. She was dressed in pajamas and had applied a face mask,
Then, Josie came out of the bathroom and casually applied moisturizer on herself.
“That’s so unfair. I spent a huge sum on my face, but all you have to do was apply some moisturizer, Madelyn complained.
Josie looked at Madelyn, who had a mud-covered face, and wanted to laugh. “Are you not going to work?”
Tm off work today. Could you come with me?” Madelyn said as she pulled Josie’s hand.
I can’t. I need to go for an interview,” Josie packed up her things and hurriedly prepared to leave.
Tm also taking you to the interview. My acquaintance from Clusia Media Group’s HR Department said the company is short on an agent. You’ve got no issues with professionalism and capability, and you’ll get a generous salary package too.”
Madelyn blinked at Josie.
I can’t. I’ve never ventured into that industry before.” Josie packed her things and ran out as she needed to wait for the bus.
Madelyn replied. “You’ve studied management. Why do you think you’re not capable? Jo, don’t make your life difficult for the sake of money. The annual salary goes up to hundreds of thousands!”
Josie ran toward the door and stopped. She then looked back at Madelyn with an intense gaze. “Speak properly.”
“I wasn’t kidding. Of course, there might be a few newcomers in the beginning. You should know that A-list actress, Hazel, is retiring from the film industry. Think about it. If you brought in another A-list actress or actor, it’s going to be more than just having a hundreds-of-thousands-of-dollar annual salary.”
Josie narrowed her eyes and looked at Madelyn with disdain. “Eat well, and less daydreaming. Clusia Media Group would never want me anyways. Ill be leaving now!”
Josie hurriedly ran down the stairs to catch the bus.
In order to smoothly find employment, Josie submitted her resume for a job far from the center of Hofcaster.
The journey took more than two hours to transit from the bus to the subway alone. So, Josie had to get up at five o’clock in the morning to prepare and head out soon after.
If Josie could not catch the bus, she might not even have the time to eat breakfast.
Josie hurriedly boarded the bus in a panic. Her heartbeat and breathing had become increasingly rapid. As Josie stared at her newly-bought bread in her hand, she had no appetite whatsoever.
“Ah!” Josie cried out. At that time of the day, the bus was full of elderly folks. Josie was squeezed into the corner and bumped her head on the glass window. In turn, this made her vision darken.
After that long ordeal, Josie’s eyes were sore to the point where tears had come out.
Being squeezed in on the entire journey, she did not have time to eat anything.

Chapter 59
The bread Josie bought had already gone cold. She looked at it and sighed exasperatedly.
Soon after, Josie put the bread into her bag and walked into the company premises.
Hello, my name is Josie Yates, Tim here to apply for a job.”
The girl at the reception then smiled at Josie. “This way, please.”
Josie nerausly followed behind the girl and walked into the HR Department office..
“Ms. Yates, was it? We could agree on offering you a position. However, we’re currently not understaffed for the post you’ve applied for. Unless you’re willing to work your way up from the bottom…”
Josie became stunned momentarily. She clenched her fingers and asked, “What do people at the bottom do?”
