Out of Ashes Into His Heart novel Chapter 61

Three years ago, at the school gate, I saw an old lady lying on the side of the road, and no one around her was stepping forward to help. Some people were even filming, accusing her of fraud.

I couldn't stand it, so I called an ambulance and went with her to the hospital, making sure she was okay before I left.

I would have almost forgotten this little incident if Tom hadn't mentioned it today.

"Do you remember now?" He smiled.

I nodded, suddenly realizing, "So, you helped me because of that..."

He gave me a knowing look and said faintly, "I suppose so..."

Now that I had the full explanation, the unease in my heart finally settled.

Before long, the car stopped in front of the company building.

I quickly thanked him and got out of the car.

Just as I was about to close the door, Tom leaned against the steering wheel, his slightly open collar giving him an even more carefree, wild air. "Grace, see you tonight."

His words were quite ambiguous, but given that we now lived across from each other, we would indeed see each other daily.

I froze for a moment, then nodded quickly. "Drive safely."

He lazily waved his hand as the window rolled up, and the car sped away.

"Grace?"

Just then, I heard someone call my name from behind. Turning around, I saw Joseph standing nearby with a slight frown.

I remembered the opera tickets he gave me yesterday and quickly took them out of my bag. "Joseph, here are the tickets you gave me..."

He pursed his lips. "Was that person your boyfriend?"

I was taken aback and quickly shook my head. "No, he's my senior from university."

He seemed to relax and then smiled, asking, "So, do you have a boyfriend?"
