Chapter 13
Three years after learning of Jane’s death, he still couldn’t move on. Slowly, Leroy began to cope with the pain by indulging himself.
That day, Zachary’s friends invited him to go to the club to have some fun, and he agreed without hesitation. It was well known that Leroy, even though he was decadent, never touched a woman’s body. But he enjoyed playing with their emotions the most. A few playboys in the circle made a bet, and the loser had to chase the first woman who walked in through the
door.
Everyone thought that the princess was not a rich young lady from a club. Who knew, the girl who walked in wearing a delivery uniform, drenched in rain, with clear eyes, holding a plastic bag, asked, “Excuse me, Mr. Lewis’s delivery!”
Leroy squinted and looked at Zachary. This was the top floor of the club, only VIP guests could swipe their elevator card to enter. How did she get up here? Was it deliberately arranged to please them, these scions, like some kind of Cinderella?
The manager hurried over to apologize, the elevator malfunctioned, unexpectedly causing Jolie to climb up to the VIP top floor.
“That’s 88 floors, and she actually walked up the stairs just to deliver a takeout? Oh my god! Zachary exclaimed, unable to help but look at the girl who was completely drenched.”
“VIP floor? Is this the 88th floor? Jolie suddenly looked at the takeout in her hand, only to realize that she had misread the floor number and accidentally ended up on the VIP floor.”

Jolie was suddenly overwhelmed with shame.
“Sorry, sorry, I went the wrong way. She smiled apologetically and backed out, leaving a trail of water stains.”

Several dandified scions expressed their dissatisfaction, but Leroy stood up and laid the playing cards in his hand on the table, “I lost this round, and she was the first one to enter.”
Everyone thought Leroy was joking. No one expected that he would actually pursue Jolie, and with such seriousness.
Who knew, Jolie didn’t take Leroy seriously at all. She returned all the luxury brands he gave her one by one. The Michelin–level cake he made himself, she distributed to the children working at the amusement park.
The more it was like this, the more Leroy got excited.
Many women wanted to climb onto his bed, but Jolie avoided him. He found it very interesting, but at the same time, he still thought that this was Jolie’s special way of attaching herself to a wealthy family. He wanted to play with this scheming woman and then ruthlessly abandon her.
So in order to pursue Jolie, Leroy went all out and caused a stir in the city. He put aside his pride and went to Jolie’s rented house to mooch off her, not hesitating to praise the soup she made as especially delicious. Used to eating delicacies, he sometimes even felt that a bowl of lotus root and pork rib soup was filled with the taste of home.
I thought this was enough, and when the time was right, Jolie would definitely climb up. I didn’t expect that, in order to reject him, she actually jumped into the sea and committed suicide.
Leroy suddenly realized that Jolie was different from any other woman

who had tried to attach herself to him. The moment he realized he was about to lose Jolie, his heart raced uncontrollably. It was then that he realized he had developed feelings for her.

His thoughts scattered, Leroy was brought back to reality by a cough in
the room, and he raised his hand to knock on the door.
Suddenly, the door of the cabin creaked open.
Their eyes met.
