Chapter 809

Ellen moved in with Brian instead in the hopes of making up for all the years they've gone without seeing much of each other.

It was also a lot more convenient if she stayed with him as he lived alone and didn't have a girlfriend.

Worried that Ellen might feel bored, Brian arranged a job for her. Thus, whenever she had some time to spare, she would do an impromptu inspection of the hotel. All in all, life was pretty fulfilling for her.

Jewel had glued herself to Alex's side even more after he got injured because of her. Their relationship had become a lot more intimate; they were way more than friends now, though not quite lovers yet.

Even though it still took quite some effort for her to talk, she was doing a lot better than before. She could even say simple sentences in one go now.

By now, Jewel was making a full recovery too, so she spent the whole day with Alex. While she couldn't help with much, she could still do simple tasks such as handing him documents, pouring his coffee, and ordering lunch for him.

She ended up being busier than he was as she took on the roles of a secretary, an assistant, and a bodyguard all in one.
