Chapter 217 Lionel, Where Are You?
Last Updated:
2024-12-07 16:46:27The moment Lionel heard Chloe crying, his mind went blank as if a bomb had gone off in his head.
What happened to her? Her sobs were trembling, filled with despair!
Frozen for barely a second, Lionel shot up from the conference table. In a blur of motion, he vanished, leaving only a shadow behind.
The attendees were stunned. Barton, quickly regaining his composure, declared the meeting adjourned and bolted after Lionel like an arrow.
In the narrow hallway of the old rental building, Chloe, though panicked, knew one thing—Cynthia needed immediate medical attention.
"Somebody! Help!" she called out twice, her voice trembling with desperation. But she knew the truth: in this dilapidated neighborhood, especially during working hours, no one would come.
No, she couldn't wait any longer.
Clenching her teeth, Chloe crouched in front of Cynthia and hoisted her onto her back with great effort.
"Cynthia, wake up!" she yelled, her v

A group of people hurriedly wheeled Chloe into the examination room, with Lionel staying by her side the entire time.The examination was completed quickly, and both the doctor and nurses breathed a sigh of relief."Your wife isn't injured; she was just badly frightened," the doctor informed Lionel."That's good!" Lionel finally felt the weight in his heart lift.A faint smile of self-mockery crept onto his face. Moments ago, his usual composure, self-control, sharp thinking, and even his cold demeanor—all of it—had crumbled in her presence.He removed Chloe's blood-stained jacket and draped his own suit jacket over her shoulders."I... I want to see Cynthia," Chloe whispered hesitantly, her long eyelashes trembling with unease.Lionel nodded gently.Earlier, despite her fear and panic, Chloe had summoned all her strength to carry Cynthia downstairs.Now, her legs felt weak, and she could barely walk without

Outside the room, Chloe stood, tears streaming down her face.She wept for Cynthia's pain and felt deeply moved that at least Cynthia still had a mother who cared for her.Lionel, standing beside her, gazed into the hospital room with an inscrutable expression. His eyes were dark and distant, impossible to read. Was he touched by the scene, or lost in some other thought?Chloe bit her lip, her trembling hands gripping the doorknob. She pushed the door open and walked into the room.Cynthia's mother looked up at the soft sound of the door opening.Seeing Chloe and Lionel enter, she quickly wiped her tears, adjusted Cynthia's blanket, and stood up hastily."I'm so sorry…" Chloe said, her tears falling once more. "This is all my fault. I didn't take good care of Cynthia…"If Cynthia hadn't been her best friend, if they hadn't been inseparable during university, perhaps Cynthia wouldn't have fallen in love with Eamonn or bee

As Chloe walked, her mind replayed the scene of Cynthia's mother holding her close, stirring a mix of emotions within her.Unlike Cynthia, Chloe had little to say to her own mother. Their exchanges were brief and perfunctory, and she dared not hope for any maternal warmth.Immersed in music, Chloe found her frustrations melting away. Music, she realized, was her true calling. It was only when her fingers danced across the piano keys that she felt truly alive.Around noon, a fiery red sports car pulled up in front of the Arts Center, its sleek design immediately drawing the attention of passersby.The car door opened, revealing a pair of red high heels that matched the vehicle's color. A woman stepped out, her face partially hidden by purple sunglasses.She wore a royal blue, limited-edition cheongsam paired with a short jacket, tailored to perfection, accentuating her elegant figure. The cheongsam sparkled with jeweled floral patterns along the nec

Furrowing her brow, Chloe walked back to the classroom.Her fingers danced across the piano keys, Madge's words echoing in her mind.She really doesn't understand!Back home, Lionel hadn't returned yet. Holding a cup of water, Chloe stood by the bedroom window, gazing out at the fragrant garden, lost in thought.At some point, Lionel silently appeared behind her and wrapped his arms around her from behind. Feeling the warmth of his strong body against her back, Chloe's lashes fluttered, and she instinctively grabbed his large hand, holding it tightly.Lionel closed his eyes, inhaling deeply the scent emanating from Chloe's body, lost in its allure.She smelled sweeter than the flowers in the garden.Resting his chin on the top of her head, Lionel gently played with Chloe's delicate fingers, and for a moment, everything was silent.He lifted her chin, lowered his head, and without hesitation, captured her red lips in a deep kiss

"You!" Earl slammed his cup onto the coffee table. To think that Lionel would speak to him like this, all for a woman!Lionel casually curled the corner of his lips, unfazed by his grandfather's rage. He continued coldly, "Let me make myself clear today. If anyone dares to stir up trouble again, don't blame me for turning my back on them!"Jacob, who had been silent up to now, glanced at his son with disdain, letting out a cold laugh. "Turning your back on someone? You've always had no regard for anyone!"Lionel's appearance was a clear reflection of his father.The two of them shared the same deep features. Jacob, in his fifties, though older, still had striking features — a sharp brow and a well-defined nose that gave him a distinguished look. In his younger days, he was considered quite a catch. Even now, despite his age, his status still made him the object of many women's affection.Lionel's lips pressed into a tight line, and his handso

The tall figure lay back on the bed as Lionel pulled out his phone and searched for Chloe's location. Seeing the blinking red dot indicating she was in his villa, all the lingering worries faded in an instant, and a smile unconsciously curled on his lips.His thumb slid across the screen, dialing a video call.When the call connected, Chloe had just come out of the bathroom. Seeing the word "Husband" flashing on the screen, she revealed a bright, white smile. She gently swiped the screen, and Lionel's handsome face appeared."Lion..." she finally whispered his nickname. When they were face-to-face, it always felt difficult to say, but after only a few hours apart, she already missed him. The affectionate nickname slipped out of her control.On Lionel's screen, Chloe's face glowed with a fresh, flushed look. Her long hair still wet, hanging loosely over her shoulders, making her look even more refreshing and charming.Her eyes were bright and full o

Before Lionel ended the call, Chloe had clearly heard a woman's voice. However, Lionel told her it was nothing.Was he really trying to lie to her so blatantly?Furrowing her brow, Chloe didn't even bother to dry her hair as she lay back on the bed, holding the phone to her ear. Her thoughts ran uncontrollably, replaying the woman's voice she had heard during the call.Is it really a habit for men to lie so casually?One moment, he could speak to her with such tenderness, showering her with sweet words as if she were the only one he cared about. And in the next, he could lie to her without even blinking.Hah!How had she forgotten that a man's sweet talk was often the most unreliable? She had been hurt by it before, and yet here she was, once again swept away by his smooth words.Chloe, when will you ever learn?All you need to do is stay by his side. You know by now that his position isn't ordinary, and that there might be oth

After running out of Lionel's room in tears, Madge shoved the tray of food into the hands of a passing servant and hurried back to her own quarters, covering her mouth to stifle her sobs.In the darkness of her room, she didn't bother to turn on the light, wiping her tears over and over.In the end, Lionel despised her. Not just despised—he regarded her as worse than garbage.Yes, she was Jacob's woman, but who in this household truly acknowledged her status? Jacob himself only showed her fleeting affection when he needed her; the moment she was of no use, he treated her with the same disdain as Lionel.She realized she held even less sway than Jacob's mistresses outside of this house, unable to win favor or affection from the men here.Once, she had chosen to follow Jacob, drawn by his status, wealth, and charm. Ten years ago, Jacob had indeed been handsome, domineering, and captivating—a man like Lionel today.Now, Jacob was ag

For the sake of her child, she didn't want to leave. But… she couldn't let her child be born a bastard, facing the criticism and judgment that came with such a status. She wouldn't let her child live with such a shameful identity. She had to take her child and leave his life behind.Lionel felt a sharp pain in his chest. This time, he had really hurt her."No! I won't agree to this!" He growled fiercely, his cold lips trembling slightly."Heh…" Chloe let out a bitter laugh. "Lionel, even now, you still say no? What right do you have to say that? Will your future wife allow my existence? Even if she does, I won't shamelessly cling to you here. I won't share a man with another woman. Let's part on good terms. You marry Joanna, and I'll find a man who wants only me and get married. Let's wish each other well!"On the surface, her smile was small, but inside, her heart felt like it had been pierced open, bleeding profusely.At this point, Lionel still wanted to command her so arrogantly?

The gaze of both men turned sharply toward Chloe, but they could only see the cold, distant silhouette of her back.Hearing Chloe's hoarse voice, both men seemed frozen, as if struck by lightning. They were momentarily immobilized, like they had been enchanted. By the time they snapped out of it, Chloe had already walked several meters away."Chloe…" Geoffrey quickly turned and chased after her.Lionel's face darkened, his long legs making it easy to overtake Geoffrey, whose injured leg slowed him down. In just a couple of steps, Lionel was already right behind Chloe.Without a word, Lionel reached out and pulled Chloe into his arms."Let go! Lionel, I've become a joke. Are you trying to make it impossible for me to live here anymore?" Chloe said coldly, her eyes never meeting Lionel's. She suppressed the pain in her heart and spoke with an icy detachment."Chloe, please don't be angry. It will hurt you. I can't bear to see you suffer like this. I want to live with you, I want to be w

Chloe instinctively pulled her hand away and reached out to Geoffrey. "Geoffrey, I want to marry you. Will you marry me?""Ah?" Geoffrey was taken aback, but as soon as he caught the murderous look in Lionel's eyes, he smirked. "I've been waiting for this." He grabbed Chloe's hand, pulling her close to him."Chloe..." Lionel's hand reached out to grab air, his heart aching with a sharp pain. "Come home with me. I'll explain everything."Chloe acted as if nothing was wrong, forcing a faint smile. "No need. There's nothing for you to explain. A woman like me doesn't deserve your respect."Turning her head, she looked away. Though her heart ached painfully, her blood rushed, and she longed to throw herself into his arms, to tell him everything—her fears, her sadness, and that they were having a child. But she couldn't. He was already engaged to another woman.Even though she was of low status, she would never share a man with another woman!She clenched her fist, forcing back the bittern

After receiving Lionel's call, Grace deliberately walked over to Chloe's room and listened carefully. There was no sound coming from inside.Hmph, she's really able to sleep through everything!Grace curled her lips into a mocking smile, feeling quite pleased with herself.She went downstairs to direct the servants on their tasks.By the time daylight broke and breakfast was ready, Chloe still hadn't come downstairs. Grace found herself looking back at the stairs over and over, but there was still no sign of her.Eventually, feeling something was off, Grace walked to Chloe's door, knocked, and called out, "Madam, breakfast is ready. If you don't come out soon, it will get cold."Still, silence.She raised her voice and called again, "Madam, Master will be home soon."No response. Could something have happened?Thinking this, Grace lost her composure. She nervously twisted the door handle, opening the door and quickly stepping inside. But the room was empty.Her heart sank.Grace's fac

"Geoffrey, take me to my mom's." Chloe finally looked at Geoffrey for the first time.Since getting into Geoffrey's car, she had been lost in her thoughts, completely unaware of Geoffrey's gaze as he scrutinized her."Did you two argue?" Geoffrey's voice was low and hoarse, filled with a deep, painful concern as he looked at Chloe.Seeing the redness around her eyes made his heart ache, as if thousands of needles were running through his veins, causing him sharp, excruciating pain."No." Chloe took a deep breath and answered calmly."Don't lie to me. Chloe, you don't lie." Geoffrey grabbed Chloe's hand and said, "I've told you before, Lionel isn't the best choice for you. His background is too complicated, he's really not right for you. Chloe, come with me. I promise I'll marry you immediately, and you won't suffer one bit."A passionate man, a passionate gaze, and passionate words, but Chloe's heart remained unmoved.After her heart was broken by the past, giving it to Lionel had bec

AstralisThe Williams estate remained brightly lit through the night.As the last guests departed, the household staff moved efficiently, tidying up the courtyard and clearing away the remnants of the celebration.Earl, filled with joy and having indulged in a few too many drinks, had retired early for the evening.Only his immediate family remained in the grand hall—his sons, daughters, and grandchildren all gathered together."Lion, congratulations on rekindling things with Joanna," Lewis, Lionel's cousin, remarked with a grin.Lionel shot him a frosty glare. "Thank you," he replied curtly, rising from his seat. He turned to address the elders. "I'm feeling a bit tired. If you'll excuse me, I'll head to my room now.""Go get some rest. It's been a long day for you!"His aunt Hannah forced a smile and waved dismissively, hiding her envy behind a facade of politeness. Beneath her outward cheer, her heart burned with jealousy. Earl was clearly playing favorites again. Even though Joann

Just as she sat up in bed, she heard footsteps outside the door. Her heart leaped with excitement. She jumped out of bed, rushed to the door, and flung it open, calling out, "Lion—" But the person standing before her was Grace."Madam, it's me. The Master won't be coming home tonight." Grace stepped inside, carefully balancing a tray of food, a bright smile plastered on her face as if something delightful had happened. "Before he left, he made it clear that I must take good care of you. I wouldn't dare neglect his orders. I saw you were asleep during dinner and didn't want to disturb you, but I figured you'd be awake by now, so I brought your meal upstairs.""Thank you," Chloe murmured, disappointment flashing across her face as she followed Grace back inside.She sat down to eat, but every bite felt like a lump in her throat. The food refused to go down smoothly. She glanced at her flat belly, clenched her teeth, and forced herself to eat a bit more before giving up entirely.When Gr

Joanna's face flushed with a hint of redness. She glanced at Lionel, who was not far away, her eyes flashing with a mischievous, almost mocking glint. She said, "Lion has always been great, and... I'm willing to marry him!""Good! Good!" The guests erupted in applause and cheers.The atmosphere in the room reached its peak, with everyone smiling and congratulating Earl and Samuel.Earl and Samuel, unable to hide their joy, raised their glasses to toast to their friends and relatives, their eyes moist with emotion.Both families were prominent in the business world, and this union was a powerful alliance. Everyone could foresee that the future of the business world would belong to them.

"You, I...fine, it's my fault. I was wrong. Now that things have come to this point, we must take responsibility for what needs to be handled. An important guest is arriving today. Get yourselves ready and come out quickly. They might already be on their way."Knowing that if he softened his tone, the young man would only grow more defiant, Earl—proud as he had been all his life—was ultimately forced to bow his head before his grandson."Ha…" Lionel let out a cold laugh. "Responsibility? If anyone has to take responsibility, it's you. Every consequence of this mess stems from your decisions. What does any of it have to do with me?""You—you—what nonsense are you spouting?" Earl bristled, his anger making his mustache quiver. "Oh, I see. This must be because of that woman!
