“Gilmore, how did you do that?” Elaine managed to ask after a long silence.
But she only received a mysterious smile and one word, “Secret”
He added, “Now Tobias won’t be able to find you. We can watch the meteor shower here where no one will disturb us again
She glanced around the empty rooftops, only to see several lights shining. They would be perfectly safe here, indeed. All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Tobias would never have imagined that she would be on the rooftop in a million years.
For her, it was also a massive surprise.
Thinking she could finally be safe from Tobias, Elaine breathed a sigh of relief.
They found a clean place on the rooftop and sat down.
“I helped you dodge a bullet today, but Tobias will disturb you again when you go back to university.” Gilmore said with at worried look as he stared at Elaine.
Elaine replied, “I’ll take a train back to my hometown tomorrow morning to visit my father. I’ve asked for 15 days off to go home and take proper care of him. During this period, Tobias won’t even remember what happened tonight, and even if he does, I dare him to hurt me blatantly on campus.”
Il drive you to the train station tomorrow. Call me if he ever dares to mess with you again,” Gilmore promised.
Elaine looked back at him and nodded slightly. She was a little touched.
She had never imagined that such a nice man like Gilmore would show up to help her out when she had her back against the wall.
He saved her from a desperate situation like a true hero.
Every girl once or twice dreamed of meeting her hero who could make her heart beat like crazy.
All her life, Elaine had thought that such heroes could only exist in fiction.
But now, she believed it because a true hero was sitting right next to her at the moment.
“Um… when we were in that room, didn’t you say something about us having a date? Do you still mean it?” she whispered with her head down
Gilmore stared at her, who didn’t dare to lift her head, and only came back to his senses after a while.
He wondered, “I saved her and then lent her 200,000 dollars to save her father. So she has fallen in love with me?
“But honestly, I didn’t expect to get anything in return.
“Moreover, I’ve had Lilian, Claire, Helene, and Christine who has not technically become my girlfriend yet
I have four girlfriends already.
“Including Elaine, I will have five of them in total.”
Gilmore felt he needed to think it over.
“Elaine, to

be honest, I’m not a monogamous man, but quite the opposite, a ladies‘ man. If I become your boyfriend, I’m I’ll break your heart,” Gilmore decided to tell her the truth.
Before he got attached to her, Gilmore hesitated to confuse and disappoint such a pure and beautiful girl.
Elaine was stunned when she heard the answer.
She disappointedly replied, “I know I’m not good enough for you, so you chose to describe yourself as such a terrible man. I… I’m not forcing you or anything. Why are you lying like that?”
After that, she rose to her feet and prepared to leave.
Gilmore was dumbfounded.
He didn’t expect his words could be misinterpreted like this.
He was screaming inside, Jesus! Hand to God, everything I said is true. I have four girlfriends already. How can that not make me a playboy?”
He didn’t want to harm this innocent young girl.
But he never expected she would not believe what he said.
Seeing Elaine covering her face in her hands and running away, he worried she would do something stupid. So he got up quickly and ran after her.
He grabbed her slender arm and asked, “Elaine, where are you going?”

“Let go of me and leave me alone. I’ll pay back your money, although it’ll take some time.” Elaine looked away stubbornly and said.
Gilmore turned to face her and grabbed her arms with both hands, realizing she covered her face with her right hand, and/ tears stained her eyes.
It was the first time Elaine had expressed her feelings for a guy.
But pathetically, she was turned down.
It was such a heavy blow to her.
Her fragile heart was instantly broken.
She had to run away in a hurry to hide her sadness from Gilmore
She did not expect Gilmore to follow her and see her crying. She, so embarrassed, wished she could dig a hole and bury
herself!
Gilmore was shocked and murmured, “Are you crying?”
She turned her face away while sobbing, “I’m not crying. The wind blew dust into my eyes.”
He did not expect to hear such a dramatic excuse at such a moment.
However, her tears were indeed unexpected.
“It seems she has fallen in love with me,” he thought.
Π
As a grown–up man, he saw a beautiful woman standing before him with teary eyes. It would be a lie to say he was unmoved.
He replied, “Fine! If you think that a playboy like me, who falls in love with quite a few girls, is a good man and boyfriend material, I can tell you that I’m more than happy to be your boyfriend.”
He thought. “It’s true I have four girlfriends, but a man could never refuse a pure campus belle like Elaine, right?”
Hearing his words, Elaine finally turned around to look at him.
Her teary eyes were filled with disbelief.
She thought, “Does it mean that Gilmore agreed to be my boyfriend?”
“Gilmore, will you be my boyfriend?” Elaine asked with dreamy eyes.
She imagined, “Could this man, a hero who came to my rescue, really be my boyfriend?”
Gilmore stroked her long, soft hair and said, “I’ve told you, as long as you don’t mind my being a playboy, I’m happy to go out with a beautiful girl like you.”
She didn’t believe him, so she said with happiness written all over her face, “I know you’ll be a good boyfriend.”
Suddenly, she approached and hugged Gilmore.
Her tiny, blushed face was tightly resting against his chest.
“From now on, this hero will be my boyfriend,” she said to herself.
Gilmore never expected Elaine to throw herself into his arms abruptly.
He could only sigh, “If I had known that such innocent beauty would ever fall in love with me, I wouldn’t have saved her and given her the money.”
However, he would never refuse to help such a beautiful girl.
“Life is hard!” he signed silently.
Right at this moment, the sky suddenly became bright.
A meteor shower dashed through the sky.
Shooting stars flew by one after another, illuminating the sky as well as Gilmore and Elaine who held each other tightly on the building top.
She lifted her head in Gilmore’s embrace, her beautiful eyes sparkling as she watched the shooting stars flying across the sky.
Overwhelmed by the beauty, she said, “It’s so marvelous.”
However, nobody knew whether she was referring to the meteor shower or her new relationship.
No matter what life could bring, she would never forget this night, Gilmore, and the marvelous meteor shower.

Just as this romance blossomed on the rooftop and the new couple admired the meteor shower, the door of Room No. 8, 50th Floor was opened by a hotel staff member with a room card.
The group stormed into the room, but surprisingly nobody was there.
Tobias ordered his men to search every inch of the room, but they found nobody there.
They noticed the open windows and looked outside. Once again, they found there was no place to hide.
No one could jump from the 50th floor to the ground, except for Spiderman,
Tobias was confused, thinking, “Clearly, Elaine has entered this room, but where is she? How could she disappear?”
