A Force Love Contract With GANG LEADER

One year later.

In the morning, Kate was busy making breakfast in the kitchen.

Outside the window, her daughter was shouting excitedly. In the spacious backyard, Tristan was training Cathy baseball. The little girl inherited her father’s sports gene and loved all kinds of sports. She was brave and tough like a boy.

Tristan’s health was good now. He read books, helped Kate with the housework, and went to see ball games or play balls on the weekend with friends he made lately. He bought a farm nearby not long ago and joked that he would like to be a farmer. They raised a lot of small animals on the farm, and it became the favorite place of their daughter Cathy. The farm was a holiday resort for the whole family.

The happiness of life greatly exceeded Kate’s expectation, though sometimes, she had a little regret.

Kate opened the cupboard and took out a small candy box. Opened the lid, there was a pine cone inside. She took it to her nose and smelled it. She could smell the scent of the pine trees in her hometown. Last night, she saw Max’s Facebook. There were photos of Daisy’s wedding. Among them, there was a family photo…

The door was opened, and the laughter of the father and daughter was heard. Kate put the pine cone back to the box and put the box back to the cupboard.

After a while, Tristan went to the kitchen. He had just washed his face, and his hair was wet. His eyes sparkled with light. He walked closer to kiss her and then started to pour milk into their cups.

Kate’s heart turned peaceful.

She was not a greedy person. Living under his relaxed and peaceful eyes, it was enough for her.

She stared at his back and called his name, and then said, “There are good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?”

He turned back with a cup in his hand, “Good one first.”

Kate looked at his eyes and said, “We got Michael.”

Tristan’s hand that was pouring the milk stopped, and a drop spilled. After he got confirmation from her eyes, he walked over to her and held her shoulders. He seemed to say something but his throat was blocked. His hands-on shoulder increased the force.

Kate didn’t say anything but smiled at him quietly.

After a while, Tristan said, “I know what the bad news is.”

On the same day, far in the States.

It was time for a new semester in college.

In a suburban village of LA, a mother and a son were gloomy. A month ago, the boy got admitted to the best college in CA, but he didn’t have enough money for the tuition. Yesterday was the deadline for enrolling.

As he was sitting on the porch mobily, his phone rang. It was from the school, and they asked him why he didn’t show up. And he was told the tuition had been paid.

He exchanged a look with his mother, who just walked out when someone opened the door of the fence and walked in. The boy rushed to him with excitement, “Uncle Jimmy! It is you who paid the tuition for me, right?”

Jimmy was startled. He took out a bank card from his pocket and said, “I just came back home from a business trip. I come to give you this.”

The boy has a moment of trance, and Jimmy was also in a daze.

“Whatever it is, you go to college first.”

After Jimmy left them, he pondered about it as he was driving. After a while, he pulled over and made a call. “Auntie, how are you? Is everything okay with all your families?”

The person replied to him that it was okay. And there was a weird thing. Her son bought a house on the mortgage after getting married. They had made the deposit. And yesterday, when he wanted to make the first payment, he was told the total amount of the house had been paid. The son thought it was his mother who wanted to give him a surprise.

The mother said, “How can I pay so much money? I was going to ask you. Did you pay for it?”

The place the car stopped was a quiet place. Jimmy leaned on the door and rubbed his sore neck, and looked up at the sky. The sky was giddily blue with bright white clouds. The colors were pure and crystal without any dark shade. He could only think of a person.

She must be doing well since she could spare her mind to do these things.

And for further details, he didn’t want to guess. All he could give her were his best wishes!Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Author’s Note:

It was a great journey to share with you the beautiful love story between Tristan and Kate. We witnessed their pain, agony, and several tragedies that mold this couple into a better individual.

Life is always unpredictable, and every wrongdoing has corresponding accountability. Often, harsh circumstances push one individual to make a drastic move even though the result will cause his/her demise.

For Tristan, his heart filled with revenge has become his strength to push his limit until he reaches his desire for fame, money, and recognition; however, everything changed when LOVE came along the way and tested his cold-heart.

I hope the story of Tristan and Kate will once again give us another great lesson. Though this novel has ended, another short story will be posted immediately. I hope you still continue supporting it and would still walkthrough with the new characters on Volume four.

Lots of Love,
