Chapter 19
Since meeting Andy early in the morning at school, Maddie has been feeling extremely dazed.
She was in a bad mood all day, breaking the pencil lead three times while drawing the design draft, resulting in crooked lines.
Even when boiling coffee at the coffee machine on campus, it was evident that the hand was scalded. Fortunately, Alexis discovered it in time and avoided injury.
“Maddie, where did we go for dinner later?”
Alexis was talking to her on the side, but Maddie just stared blankly without responding.
“Maddie?”
It wasn’t until Alexis reached out and shook her in front of her that she
suddenly woke up.
“Sorry, I just zoned out.”
Alexis felt uneasy seeing how obvious Maddie’s low spirits were.
“Maddie, let’s not go to class this afternoon, let’s go to the amusement park together.”
“Amusement park?”
Although Maddie didn’t understand why he did it, she still followed him to the amusement park far away from the city center.

The car parked steadily at the entrance of the amusement park, and those entering the gate were all accompanied by parents with young children, or student couples.
“Alexis, why did you bring me here?”
Seeing her confused expression, Alexis unbuckled the seatbelt and smiled as she ruffled her hair.
“I would be very worried if you continue to be so absent–minded.”
She looked into his eyes as if all the unhappiness with Andy had just been dispelled.
“Thank you…”
He took her on countless thrilling and exciting rides: pirate ships, spinning chairs, and bungee jumps.
They tried out all the thrilling rides at the amusement park, and the adrenaline rush helped Maddie forget her worries.
And when the roller coaster reached the highest point, Maddie gripped the handrail tightly and suddenly heard Alexis shouting beside her.
“Ah!!!!”
“Maddie!! Shout out all the unhappiness!! From now on, completely forget about the past unhappiness! Embrace the new life!!”
Looking at the man beside her, Maddie suddenly felt her eyes stinging and screamed involuntarily.
The howling wind rushed into her throat, and Maddie made up her mind to blow away all the clouds of doubt about Andy!

And at that moment, she finally burst into a hearty laugh.
The night grew darker gradually, and the two of them were both feeling a bit tired without realizing it.
After eating some food at the themed restaurant, they took a stroll to the base of the Ferris wheel.
“Maddie, we’ve been crazy all day, let’s finish it off with a bang.”
Alexis flashed a gentle smile and took Maddie’s hand.
The two of them sat on the Ferris wheel, enjoying a rare moment of peace and tranquility. The transparent glass cabin was slowly rising, with the lights of the entire Paris flowing beneath their feet.
Watching the moving scene outside the window, Alexis gazed at the beautiful profile of Maddie leaning against the window, and spoke softly.
“Are you feeling better now?”
Maddie came to her senses at the sound and smiled, nodding at him.
The two of them enjoyed the night view for a while, until the Ferris wheel was about to reach its highest point, Alexis suddenly spoke in a deep voice.
“Maddie, there’s actually something I’ve been keeping from you for many years.”
Maddie turned her head innocently, her eyes sparkling with twinkling
stars.
“What happened?”

The usually mature and steady Alexis suddenly became timid and nervous, his palms sweating with anxiety as he slowly began to speak.
“The day after you left, I was planning to confess my feelings to you. However, before I could tell you how I felt, you had already left without saying goodbye.”
“Later, I tried many methods to find you, but at that time I was too
young and too weak to do anything. I could only keep this love hidden in my heart.”
Seeing Maddie’s astonished look, he paused for a moment and then spoke again.
“But I never forgot you, until I met you again in Paris, I felt like it was a gift from God.”
“I know you just came out of a painful relationship, and you have always treated me like a brother. I have also thought about just being by your side to accompany you…”
“But now I am becoming more and more greedy, I am not satisfied with just being by your side.”
“Would you like to be with me?”
At this moment, the cabin of the Ferris wheel rose to the highest point, and the entire night view of Paris was right beside them.
After listening to these words, Maddie stood frozen in place, listening to him slowly recounting the buried emotions of many years, suddenly feeling her eyes moistening.
The next second, the sky suddenly burst into a grand fireworks display, as if it was specially designed as a magnificent backdrop for them.

“Maddie… where is your answer?”
Watching Alexis’s ears turn red, Maddie’s breath caught in her throat.
She imagined the day when she was forced to move, 15–year–old Alexis waited anxiously, trying every possible method to find her, but all in vain, feeling a sense of emptiness.
It seemed that Maddie was moved by the scene and couldn’t help but shed a tear.
“I was willing to…..”
Suddenly, Alexis’s eyes widened, and he excitedly trembled as he stepped forward and embraced Maddie.
And the fireworks bloomed behind them, like a witness to their
regained love.
