She Outshines Them All

She Outshines 397

Chapter 397

Linda drove her BMW and quietly arrived at Oxhorn Village in Raverot Town, taking in her surroundings with wide eyes.

‘Is this really the Oxhorn Village I once knew? Linda thought, feeling a surge of disbelief at the vibrant scene before her.

She noticed that every household had built new houses in unique styles. An open parking lot sat at the village entrance, and a clean, smooth paved road stretched to the far end of the village, with colorful flowers blooming along both sides.

“The village has completely transformed, Linda thought, still processing the sight. She saw farm stays and guesthouses everywhere, interspersed with neat vegetable gardens.

Tourists of all kinds strolled along the road, enjoyed food and drinks at the farm stays, or planted and picked vegetables in the gardens. The whole village was brimming with life and energy.

When Linda finally reached Donovan’s Farmland, she stopped in her tracks, completely stunned by the idyllic scene unfolding within the viewing fence.

‘Has Donovan’s Farmland really grown this large in just two years?‘ Linda thought, looking around in astonishment. She could not see the end of the property, which appeared to span hundreds of acres.

The mountains in the distance were equally lush and full of life, adding to the picturesque scene.

At that moment, alongside her shock, Linda felt a sense of pride well up within her. ‘This is Jaden’s work,* she thought with admiration.

From the moment she met Jaden, she knew he would make a name for himself and build something remarkable. But what he had achieved now was beyond her expectations.

Linda wanted to buy a ticket to tour the farmland, but the farm only allowed a maximum of five hundred visitors daily. The tickets were already sold out, and she could not get in.

With no other options, Linda had no choice b Farmland from there.

to drive to the neighboring village, planning to sneak into Donovan’s

When she arrived, however, she was shocked yet again.

“The neighboring village has completely transformed too, she thought, noticing that many of the fields and previously barren mountains had been incorporated into Donovan’s Farmland. Organic vegetables and fruits were now being cultivated, local chickens and ducks raised, and many of the villagers had found employment at the farm.

“This place is meticulously managed; sneaking in won’t be as easy as I’d thought,‘ Linda realized, assessing the level of care put into the farm’s operations.

Fortunately, the village environment and housing had improved significantly. With many new guesthouses and farm stays available, Linda saw that it was getting late and decided to check into a guesthouse.

Unable to sleep well, she found herself awake at dawn the next morning.

After a quick breakfast, Linda handed the Farmland for a look.

of the guesthouse some money and asked her to take her to Donovan’s

The owner accepted the money and immediately fetched a work pass, handing it to Linda. “My daughter–in–law works at Donovan’s Farmland planting flowers. Just put on this pass, pick up this load of flower seedlings, and head toward the area with the flowers. No one will question you.”

“And one more thing–if you’re going to do farm

work, you can’t dress so well. Wear this old set of clothes.”

Linda, accustomed to wearing designer clothes, felt it was practically torture to put on the old, worn clothes of a farm

woman.

However, for Jaden’s sake, she gritted her teeth, put on the old clothes, donned a straw hat and mask, and picked up the not- too–heavy load of flower seedlings. She entered Donovan’s Farmland from the neighboring village’s entrance and began walking toward the Donovan family’s old estate.

As she walked, Linda thought to herself, Jaden, I’m a beauty with a net worth of millions. I’m going through all this hardship for you. This is my sincerity.

This time, whether it takes a year, two years, three years, or even five years, I won’t give up until you accept me again. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

She walked for nearly an hour before finally arriving at a spot about 660 feet away from the Donovan family’s old house.

Covering that distance gave her a new perspective on Jaden’s accomplishments, the kind of status and identity Jaden would possess as the owner of such an enormous farm.

What kind of status and identity would Jaden Donovan, who owned such a huge farm, have?

She really could not let go of him.

Hiding behind a cluster of flowers, she pretended to be trimming the branches, but in reality, she pulled out a small pair of binoculars and began observing the family’s old house.

The old Donovan family house was also surrounded by a fence, with a sign at the entrance of the flower ramp reading “Private Residence, Visitors Keep Out.” There was also an electronic gate, making it impossible for her to enter.

However, she noticed that a small building had been constructed behind the old house, and many flowers had been planted around it. Her curiosity was piqued.

She quietly moved toward the rose bushes in front of her and got a clearer view of the place. She was so stunned by the sight that she couldn’t look away.

‘What a beautiful flower slope,‘ Linda thought to herself. ‘What a beautiful European–style building.

If the Donovan family’s old mansion and the flower ramp in front of it exuded a simple, ancient, and poetic charm that carried the sorrows and joys of time, this new flower slope and white building looked youthful, elegant, and exquisite, conveying the romance and gentleness of its inhabitants.

Linda wondered, ‘Did Jaden create this?‘

It had to be.

Only Jaden would have such taste, romance, and persistence.

And this new flower path and white building would be her and Jaden’s love nest.

With fantasy in her mind, she looked through the binoculars, slowly scanning the new flower path.

Sunflowers, tulips, daisies, dandelions, Baharia chrysanthemums, marigolds, little moon roses, etc. These were all low- growing, easy–to–maintain plants with plenty of beautiful succulents.

She could not help but love it just by looking at it.

Suddenly, an elegant and captivating figure appeared in her view.

Her heart skipped a beat, and she almost cried out.

Linda thought to herself, ‘Luna?‘

‘Why was Luna here? Linda thought.

Luna was wearing a flowing white dress, her long hair cascading down her back. Barefoot, she stepped lightly on the white marble slope, looking like a goddess from mythology who had just woken from a beautiful night. Wrapped in the gentle morning light, she strolled along the flower path, walking toward her lover.

At the end of the flower path stood a handsome and refined man.

Linda almost cried out.

Jaden?‘ she thought, stunned. ‘Why was Jaden here too?‘

He, too, was barefoot, dressed in a white leisure outfit with Chinese–style knots, his hands casually in his pockets, smiling at Luna. His hair blew gently in the morning breeze.

Jaden seemed to have said something. Luna smiled, her entire body glowing with charm as she ran toward him.

“What did he say to make Luna glow like that?‘ Linda thought curiously.

Linda, feeling frantic, stepped out of the rose bushes without thinking and hurried to stop Jaden from interacting with Luna.

“I told you I would plant a new flower ramp for you and build you a small building,” Jaden said. “Take a look. Do you like it?”

“I like it!” Luna said loudly, her arms wide open as she ran toward him. Her voice rang out so loudly it seemed as though she wanted the whole world to hear. “I like it very much!”

“I’ve never liked a road or a house so much in my

life!”

Luna looked at the sparkling Jaden, unable to control herself. Her voice was full of joy as she exclaimed, “Jaden, I’ve fallen in love with you!”

“Be my boyfriend!”

“Be Luna Carter’a only and eternal boyfriend!”

When Linda heard Luna’s confession, she felt a sudden chill, as though her entire body had frozen in that moment.

“No.” Jaden shook his head seriously as he watched Luna run towards him.

Luna’s smile froze, and she almost stopped breathing.

But soon, J
