Chapter 280: Emptiness

"Hey there!"

Jeremy turned in surprise when he heard the family voice behind him. "You came!" He said with a smile. He was too happy today that he didn't think before hugging her, startling the woman. 

When she was over the shock, she chuckled and patted his back with one hand. "Of course I had to. It's your graduation after all." Mrs Wesley said with a smile, before they broke the hug. She handed him the flowers she was holding. 

"Come on, I'm a man." He whined. "Men do not need flowers." 

"Then I will take it." Ellie who had been standing idly beside Mrs Wesley accepted it happily and sniffed it. 

"You look very handsome." The woman noted. 

His hair was in a tight ponytail, he wore a blue shirt tucked in a black trousers with a really nice pair of shoes to go with his dressing.

He blushed. "You also look very beautiful Maria." He smiled.
