Her head throbbed as if it were about to explode! Looking at the unfamiliar surroundings, she remembered that Lucas had imprisoned her. She reached out to knock on the door, but her hand fell halfway up, and she started coughing violently.Struggling to get up, she leaned against the door. After a moment, she found her phone and dialed Lucas' number. She couldn't stay trapped here. She hadn't done anything wrong."Beep... beep... beep..." The busy signal sounded three times before the call was disconnected. Aveline tried again, but Lucas kept hanging up until he eventually turned off his phone.Aveline coughed a few more times, feeling utterly miserable. Just then, there was a knock on the door, and Bonnie's voice called out, "Ma'am, lunch is ready. I'm bringing it in."Without waiting for a response, Bonnie opened the door. "Ah!" Aveline yelped in pain as the door suddenly opened, crushing her fingers that were still resting on the floor. The unexpected impact sent a jolt of ago

Amber turned pale at the sight and gasped, “Bonnie, I told you something was wrong with Ma’am. She seems to have fainted. What should we do? Will Mr. Tudor blame us?”Bonnie was also worried, her palms sweating. She swallowed and said, “No, it won't be our fault. She refused to admit she was sick and wouldn't admit her mistake. Mr. Tudor will only blame her for not taking care of herself!”Amber remained anxious. “But I’m scared…”Bonnie looked at her and said firmly, “Just do as I say, and we’ll be fine!”Amber shrank back, her timid nature succumbing to Bonnie's stern words, and she nodded. “Alright, I understand.”…At the hospital, the doctor examined Aveline and started an IV. Her fever had already exceeded 104 degrees Fahrenheit; if they had arrived any later, it might have been too late to save her!Lucas sat in a chair, coldly watching the unconscious Aveline, his heart a mix of irritation and suffocating emotions. If she felt so terrible, why didn’t she say anything?Time pas

Aveline blinked weakly and decided to ask for clarification, her tone becoming more even. “Lucas, you say I schemed against you. What exactly did I do to make you think that?”“You still have the nerve to ask?” Lucas’ expression darkened further at her question.Aveline said, “I did nothing wrong, and yet you’re inexplicably accusing me. I need to understand why.”Pausing, she added, “Don’t beat around the bush. If you have something to say, say it clearly.”Lucas was so infuriated he laughed. She had the audacity to lecture him?His eyes were cold as he stared at her. “Wasn’t it you who sent Sophia to my room last night? Aveline, I checked the surveillance. You met with Sophia in the garden, and then she showed up in my room. Don’t tell me that was just a coincidence.”Aveline finally understood. So that was it. She had no idea why Sophia went to see Lucas, but Sophia must have said something to make Lucas misunderstand and think she sent her over.That woman just didn't get it. T

She felt disgusted!Lucas' face darkened. "We didn’t do anything!"Aveline's breath caught in her throat.Lucas looked away, his throat dry. "Nothing happened between us. I was just angry that you let another woman get into my bed. I had to teach you a lesson."Aveline gazed at his chiseled profile, a sense of absurdity washing over her. Of all people, she thought bitterly, she was the one who had suffered the most injustice.As she thought about it, tears started falling. She bit her lip, trying to hold back, but she couldn’t and ended up crying openly.Lucas felt his heart clench with a sour, painful sensation. He immediately stepped forward. "Aveline...""Get out!" Aveline looked at him with tear-filled eyes, her voice hoarse.Lucas tensed, the realization of his mistake settling heavily upon him. The truth had come to light, exposing his grave misunderstanding. He now saw clearly how unjustly he had treated her. Her anger and frustration, he realized, were entirely warranted.He

Lucas ate quickly, finishing the remaining food and tossing the container into the trash. Aveline, feeling very weak, soon fell asleep again. As the light in the room dimmed, Lucas sat on the sofa, his eyes intently fixed on her. He had grown accustomed to having her by his side; how could he let her go easily? She wanted him to divorce her?She'd have to wait for another lifetime!...The next day.When Aveline woke up, she felt much better. Desmond brought her breakfast, and after she finished eating, she said, "Lucas, you can't imprison me anymore.""Okay," Lucas responded flatly.Aveline sighed in relief and got out of bed. "I’m fine now. I want to be discharged."She needed to see Russell! She still remembered how badly Russell had been beaten, and she felt incredibly guilty.Lucas frowned and replied, "Your condition is for the doctor to assess."Aveline couldn’t leave until the doctor examined her and confirmed she was well enough to be discharged.After putting on her shoes

Aveline said, "Russ, it's just some snacks. They might help when you don't have much of an appetite."These things didn't cost her much money.Russell gave a helpless smile. With his face now bruised, his handsome yet mischievous features looked quite pitiful.Aveline sat by the bed and asked, "Are your injuries serious?"Russell coughed and replied, "It's nothing major, just a few broken bones."Aveline's breath caught, feeling even more guilty. "I'm sorry...""Come on, anyone who saw you fainting on the street would have helped. I did it willingly, so don't feel bad. If you really feel uncomfortable about it, why not cook for me while I'm in the hospital? How about that?"He smiled at her, his tone light and his eyes forgiving.Aveline nodded. "No problem, I'll make sure to feed you well!"Russell's lips twitched.Aveline realized her words were off and rubbed her nose, saying, "I'll make nourishing meals to help your bones heal quickly.""Alright."Russell agreed.Looking at her pal

Seeing the clear hostility in Rina’s eyes, Aveline quickly said, “Don’t misunderstand, I’m married.”Hearing this, Rina immediately relaxed and asked, “Oh, you’re married? Then why are you here? Aren’t you afraid your husband will misunderstand?”Aveline was speechless.What kind of strange logic was that?Rina continued, “You should leave. I can take care of him.”Her attitude softened a bit, but she still didn’t like Aveline being there.“Rina!” Russell frowned. Rina was being incredibly rude.Rina shot him a hurt look before turning away to sulk.Aveline smiled faintly and said, “Russ, I’ll head out now. Take care and rest well.”Russell replied, “Let me have my driver take you.”“No need. I’m going to the market first,” Aveline said with a smile.Hearing this, Russell smiled. “Alright, be careful on your way.”“Will do.”As Aveline left the room, Rina immediately turned back to Russell. “Russ, who exactly is she? Why does she come here if she’s married?”Russell’s expression turned

Aveline bought chicken, corn, and some other vegetables, and then started preparing nourishing meal as soon as she got back. Sitting on the sofa, she took out her phone and messaged Selena.Aveline texted, "I sold my house, so I’m temporarily staying at your place."Selena replied, "No problem, you can stay there as long as you need!"Aveline asked, "When are you coming back?"Selena responded, "It might be a while. The scenery here in Stonefall City is pretty nice. I’ll bring you a gift when I return."Aveline texted back, "Alright, I’ll wait for you."...Just as she exited the chat with Selena, Lucas called. She answered with a cold tone, "Hello?"Lucas asked, "When are you coming back?"Aveline replied, "Back where?"Lucas said, "The Bluewater Bay Villa. I’ve been staying here."Aveline retorted, "What does that have to do with me?"Lucas fell silent.His breathing grew heavier, and even through the phone, she could sense his shifting emotions."Aveline, we’re still married.""Ha!

Jolie was completely baffled, a string of question marks running through her mind. But when the girl suddenly dropped to her knees, it genuinely startled her.She quickly reached out to help her up. "Get up first. We can talk properly."Before Jolie could react, the girl grabbed her hand and slapped herself hard across the face with it.Smack!The crisp sound echoed in the quiet hallway, leaving Jolie frozen in shock."Why did you hit me?" The girl, who had just been crying like an innocent damsel in distress, now clutched her face and loudly accused her. "Ian and I are the real couple! You’re the one coming between us. How could you hit me?"Jolie blinked, completely dumbfounded, as the girl’s voice rang out.A few passersby paused, glancing over to witness the commotion.Meanwhile, Ian, who had been waiting and wondering why his girlfriend hadn’t returned, came looking for her. The scene he walked into—his girlfriend on the ground, crying and accusing Jolie—made him stride forward,

The person in the hallway glanced at her briefly but quickly looked away, as though she were a stranger. Jolie’s hand, lifted halfway to wave, stalled in mid-air.What... was that? Gavin noticed her reaction and asked in a low voice, "What’s wrong?" "Nothing," Jolie replied, shaking her head and brushing it off. The man outside was Ian. Pretending not to know her was probably his way of avoiding unnecessary trouble—after all, they had already "broken up." The door to their private room shut completely, and Gavin hadn’t seen Ian or his group. He turned back to her and asked, "Do you come here often?" "Yeah," Jolie nodded. "I come here a lot with friends." So, this was one of her favorite hidden gems. The fact that she was willing to share it with him felt significant somehow. Gavin caught himself lingering on that thought and was momentarily taken aback by his own reaction. He kept his expression neutral, not letting on what had crossed his mind. The food arrived qui

The reason it wasn’t the same was simple—her plan would fall apart if she got caught.Of course, that wasn’t something she could admit.Jolie simply said, "I just don’t want any unnecessary complications. Since you’ve already arranged the flight, let’s just leave directly."Gavin’s dark eyes fixed on her for a moment, but he didn’t press the issue.It was clear she didn’t want to talk about it any further, so he let it drop.When the elevator doors opened, the two of them walked out together. A car was already waiting at the entrance. Gavin, ever the gentleman, opened the door for her.The car pulled away from Cooper Enterprises, and Gavin asked, "What do you want to eat?"Jolie, busy typing on her phone, replied, "I know a good restaurant."It was a cozy place she loved, one she often visited with her friends."Alright," Gavin replied, pulling out his phone to respond to some emails. With his work condensed into such a tight schedule, he seized every spare moment to handle it.Jolie p

Gavin suddenly recalled Wilfried's words, "That girl doesn’t even like you."Lowering his gaze slightly, Gavin pushed the thought aside without explanation, his expression remaining cool and indifferent as he watched her. After Jolie finished looking through the photos, she turned to him and asked, "Why do you have pictures of all these women?" "My father brought them over," Gavin replied. "Oh." Jolie nodded knowingly and didn’t press further. It was easy enough to figure out—the Cooper family obviously wanted him to consider an arranged marriage, so they sent over these photos for him to choose from. She could understand that. In fact, she even helped him look through them, just in case one of these women turned out to be a good match for him. After all, their relationship wasn’t meant to last forever. When he grew tired of her and she had her fun, they’d part ways, and everything would return to normal. As she neatly organized the photos and placed them back on the ta

It was Jolie’s first time visiting Cooper Enterprises, and she couldn’t help but feel a sense of curiosity about the place.No, to be precise, it was her first time stepping into any corporate office. The Quin family also had company, but she had never visited, nor had Daisy or Terence ever asked her to.The private elevator for the CEO was stunningly opulent, its polished surface gleaming like a mirror, perfectly reflecting their images. Jolie’s heart began to race with an inexplicable excitement.The assistant glanced at her and said with a warm smile, "Miss Quin, there’s no need to be nervous. Mr. Cooper will definitely be delighted to see you."Jolie nodded and replied, "I’m not nervous."The elevator moved swiftly, and as they neared the executive office, Jolie adjusted her cap and mask, pulling them snugly to hide her face as much as possible.Meanwhile, near the adjacent employee elevator, Rosalie was holding a stack of files, ready to head downstairs.She froze the moment she s

"I’ll wait for you to come back," Jolie said softly before hanging up the call. The phone let out a soft beep, and the beautiful girl on the screen disappeared. Gavin frowned slightly, a hint of displeasure flickering across his face. She ended the call without letting him say anything. But as he replayed her soft words about waiting for him, the irritation quickly faded. When his assistant walked in, the first thing he noticed was Gavin staring at his phone, an unreadable smile tugging at the corner of his lips. The assistant froze, momentarily feeling as though he’d seen a ghost. Blinking hard, he looked again. Phew! It must have been his imagination. Gavin still wore his usual cold and impassive expression. "Mr. Cooper, these are the proposals submitted by the planning department," the assistant said as he placed the documents on Gavin’s desk. "Mm," Gavin acknowledged, immediately opening the files to review them. "Mr. Cooper, I’ve also finalized your schedule for

It sounded so much like Jolie! The thought stunned Rosalie. Jolie had a boyfriend, and she got sent abroad because of him. How could she possibly be in contact with Gavin, let alone on a video call with him? Still, an uneasy suspicion gnawed at Rosalie. If she could just take one glance at the woman in Gavin’s video call, she could put her mind at ease. Gathering her courage, Rosalie lifted her head and looked in Gavin’s direction, her gaze fixed on his phone. The next second, a figure stepped in front of her—Gavin’s assistant. With a cold stare, he blocked her view. Startled, Rosalie’s face turned pale. By now, Gavin had already entered his office. The assistant looked at Rosalie, his voice icy. “What are you trying to do?” “I-I…” Rosalie hadn’t expected to be caught so quickly. Her heart leapt into her throat as she scrambled for an excuse. “I just wanted to check if Mr. Cooper needed anything.” “That’s not your job,” the assistant replied firmly. “You may be the

Aveline held Joy in one arm and looked at Selena, asking, "What are you doing?" Selena replied, "Do you know what I just saw?" Aveline shook her head. "No idea." "Hickeys!" Selena pointed exaggeratedly to a spot on her neck, saying, "Right here. And I don’t think it’s just one spot. There’s probably a lot more below. Tsk tsk!" She clicked her tongue twice, shaking her head as she added, "Who would’ve thought Mr. Cooper could be so... ravenous." Aveline was amused and said, "Well, it makes sense. After all, he's already thirty, never had a girlfriend, and now that he finally does, of course, he’d go all out to spoil her." "Go all out to spoil her..." Selena drew out the words, mimicking her tone as she leaned in closer. "Ave, you’ve really been corrupted by Lucas, that scoundrel. You never used to talk like this." Aveline responded matter-of-factly, "I’m the mother of two now. What’s there to be embarrassed about?" "Tsk, tsk, tsk!" Selena made a playful, teasing expr

The corners of Gavin’s lips curved into a faint smile.The subordinate giving the report froze, his eyes widening in shock.What on earth?!Did he just witness that?Their notoriously serious and unsmiling boss—especially during work—had just smiled. In the middle of a meeting at his phone.Several others in the room noticed it too. Their gazes darted between each other in silent but frantic communication.What’s going on?Did Mr. Cooper just smile? At his phone? During a meeting?“Is he… dating someone?” everyone thought.“Ahem!”Gavin’s assistant cleared his throat, immediately breaking the silent chaos. First, it was a warning to the staff to rein in their imaginations, and second, it was a subtle reminder to Gavin, who was typing a reply.Even the assistant couldn’t help the slight twitch at the corner of his mouth.Who would have thought?The president of Cooper Enterprises, a man known for his iron will and unshakable focus, was texting his girlfriend during a meeting… and smilin
