Love's New Bloom

Chapter 199

One week later, Erin finally uploaded her comic to the Internet. This was her first time using the Internet ever since she came to the Garden

of Eden.

Previously, she’d consistently rejected the idea of engaging with the online world. Now, as she started to get back online, she had to get used to seeing various photos of beautiful women all over the Internet. Every time she saw those photos, she couldn’t help but be reminded of her own disfigured face..

The sight of those beautiful faces assaulted her already wounded heart relentlessly, but she had to learn to face it calmly. She had to keep adjusting her emotions so that she would be able to remain composed when she came across such photos again..

Everything tended to be difficult in the beginning. Erin kept taking difficult first steps, overcoming obstacles and conquering them time and time again. This made Erin feel more and more like a warrior. She was being brave for herself and the people who loved her!

Very soon, her comic was successfully published. Her art style was cute yet cool at the same time, and the panels were supplemented

with simple dialogues and narration. Roman and Paulo were both depicted as characters in the comic, and while some parts of the story

were altered, all their names were replaced with cute pseudonyms. After all, she didn’t want Chandler to stumble upon her comic one day All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

and figure out it was her work.

Erin chose the name “AsaelMama” as her comic artist name. Using “Asa” explicitly was too risky, so she made some changes to it.

Ten minutes later, after taking a look at some other artists‘ comics, Erin was ready to call it a day on the Internet. But then she thought of her Twitter account. It had been a while since she last checked it, and she suddenly felt curious whether there was anything going on there.

Of course, she didn’t dare to use her own Twitter username for fear of Chandler discovering her.

Currently, she was still undergoing treatment and couldn’t bear the pressure of having Chandler around her. Erin was very afraid of

spiraling into the endless hurt he tended to cause her.

While Chandler never gave up on searching for her, the fact remained that she was now disfigured beyond belief. The person she feared facing the most was Chandler in this whole wide world. Therefore, she registered a new account using her email and searched for her

previous Twitter account name.

When she found her old account, she was astonished to see that she now had over ten million followers. She opened it and realized that

over seventy percent of the content was about praying for her safe return. They hoped she was still alive somewhere in this world.

Due to the release of the movie “Fox,” the news of her disappearance was extensively covered by the media, and everything about her kidnapping was made known to the public. Chandler didn’t deliberately suppress her disappearance at that time and even urged the

public to search for her!

If it weren’t for Paulo’s strict warning to the staff in the Garden of Eden that nobody should leak information about Erin, her whereabouts

would have been exposed long ago.

From doctors, and nurses, to security guards and mercenaries. Everyone in the Garden of Eden was bound by a legal contract. Exposing a patient’s privacy would violate the contract terms, which would then lead to an exorbitant amount of compensation that was more than enough to frighten anyone into complying with Paulo’s policies.

No one was foolish enough to go against money.

Erin roughly skimmed through the most liked comments and couldn’t hold back her tears after reading about twenty of them. She didn’t expect that the majority of the comments on Twitter that used to be negative had completely turned around.

One comment even received 660,000 likes! It read. “Honestly, among all the actresses in the movie ‘Fox,‘ I only noticed the demon hunter. Like my comment if you agree!”

The most liked comment said, “Erin! No matter where you are, we believe you’re still alive! Your fans are waiting for you!”

Erin was deeply moved. These strangers she’d never met came to know her through the character she portrayed. Although they only left her a few simple words on Twitter, Erin felt as though she was enveloped in a sea of kindness. The kindness these strangers showed her gradually converged into a powerful source of strength in Erin’s heart.

She silently replied to them inwardly. “Thank you! Please wait for my return!”

A long period of time passed with every agonizing treatment Erin went through. Since the day she was kidnapped and went missing, a full seven years had flown by.

In these seven years, a lot had happened.

Caleb got married to Alan’s sister, and they had a daughter who was now three years old. The whole family immigrated to Crendale.

Matthew returned to Coandria three years ago. He completely disbanded his rock band and no longer pursued music. He took over Warren’s Star Media Group. Warren, his elder brother, had unfortunately become paralyzed and had his legs amputated in a car accident

three years ago.

Sean retired from the military and transitioned into an action movie director. His company. Truffleberry Media, had grown even more prosperous and influential than before. He had become a renowned figure in the entertainment industry, and every major production wanted to collaborate with him.

lan and Yvette’s marriage was on the brink of collapse. Ever since their son died at the age of two, lan and Yvette had tried to file for divorce several times, but it never went through. They continued to love and torment each other.

lan’s software company had established a branch in Siphern Valley. In these seven years, he used all of Yvette’s inheritance as collateral to obtain loans from banks and successfully expanded his business. Now, he had become a billionaire surrounded by beautiful women all

year long, and his private life became even more messy than before.

As for Yvette, she entered the film and television industry as an actress because she was Erin’s twin sister. Back then, the movie “Fox” sold for 2.8 billion, and the role of the demon hunter portrayed by

Erin received unanimous praise. Erin even won the Best Supporting Actress award for her acting. Due to her absence, Yvette accepted the trophy on her behalf.

Once Yvette appeared in the public eye, many talent agencies and investors approached her while Erin’s popularity was soaring high. They made sincere offers for Yvette to take part in films and take up various advertisements. Of course, Yvette happily accepted this good fortune that fell into her lap without her having to put in any effort at all. She had no reason to refuse, as only a fool would say no to money.

As Yvette’s fame grew, lan enjoyed an even more audacious lifestyle outside the home. Yvette gradually became indifferent to it. Simple family life became too dull for either of them. The reason why they still didn’t get divorced wasn’t merely because they still had feelings for each other, but also mainly due to their intertwined interests.

After staying in the Garden of Eden for ten months, Roman recovered from his burns ahead of time. His speedy recovery was credited to his good physical condition and consistent commitment to exercise. Furthermore, Paulo later developed a new type of ointment to treat burns. It became a popular item in private hospitals worldwide due to its remarkable efficacy despite its exorbitant price.

Erin persuaded Roman to return to the country after his recovery. She only allowed him to visit her once a month after that. Erin told him that if he continued to neglect his own acting career for her, she would feel even more indebted to him. She believed that a talented actor like him should not waste his outstanding talent and should continue to produce more good movies and shows for audiences to enjoy.

She also assured Roman that she would work harder to write outstanding scripts and that the promise she made to cast him as the male lead would not change. Thus, Roman returned to where he had been before and resumed his acting career. Silently, he waited for Erin’s eventual return.
