Vivienne was at a loss for words for a moment. Ezra whispered softly, "Perhaps I really want to hear the sound of the bell when the wind blows, to see if it can truly make one feel less lonely."

With that, he took the lead and walked into the store, and Vivienne quickly followed.

The shop owner obviously knew Ezra, and upon seeing him, he enthusiastically approached and started chatting. After learning that Ezra wanted to customize a bell, he didn't even bother to look at Vivienne's design and said, "Just tell me what you want, and I'll make it for you."

"Thanks, I'll treat you another day," Ezra Donovan said.

"It's rare to see you going through all this trouble for such a small matter. Could it be that you're interested in her?" the shop owner joked, saying it right in front of Vivienne.

Vivienne felt embarrassed, but Ezra's next words made her even more uncomfortable. "Yes, I am quite interested in her. In fact, I've been interested in her for the past three years," he said.

    "Oh, by the way, why did you make sure the suspect wasn't mentally ill?" Vivienne suddenly thought of this."Because I want him to spend his whole life in prison." Only a lifetime in prison would be a lenient punishment for him, but for her... Asher looked at the person in his arms intently. Since she didn't want him to kill, he would resolve this matter in a way she could accept.Scarlett arrived at the tea shop. This place used to be her part-time job during college and where she first met Ezra. In her desperate and miserable state, he appeared before her like a knight. He made her feel both inferior and irresistibly attracted to him.At that time, all he saw in his eyes was Vivienne. Even if she disregarded shame and morality, confessed to him, and even tried to seduce him, he still politely rejected her advances.He seemed gentle but kept people at a distance. Over the years, no matter how resentful Scarlett felt, she had to admit that three years ago, when Vivienne and Ezra were

    As the police and the prosecutor's office were preparing to prosecute the man with a gun, Vivienne was required to testify in court. To avoid worrying her mother, Vivienne wanted to handle the matter as discreetly as possible.On the day of the trial, there were no news media present at all. In the courtroom, the suspect continued to shout that he wouldn't let Vivienne go, while Asher, except when she was testifying, never let go of her hand.When the trial concluded, as the suspect passed by the two of them, he suddenly turned to Asher and said, "Do you think you'll be happy with this woman? You won't. Women like her will eventually leave you! Hahaha... she will leave you sooner or later, and then you'll just be a pitiful abandoned fool!"Vivienne sensed that after the man said those words, Asher's grip on her hand tightened. She looked up at him, and his pitch-black eyes were fixed on her intently.The man laughed loudly as he was being escorted away, his piercing laughter echoing t

    Asher hesitated for a moment before his finger landed on a set of wedding photos. In the picture, the model was wearing a cute wedding dress, while the man was dressed in a white suit. The background was set in a classroom filled with various toys.It was a set of wedding photos with a playful and childlike style. Vivienne was somewhat surprised that Asher chose this one. "Why did you choose this?" she curiously asked."Because I want to play with Vivi," he replied.She was taken aback. She had heard him say this countless times before. When they were children, he would always hold onto her skirt and repeat this phrase tirelessly."Okay, let's play together," Vivienne smiled and said, then she asked the staff, "Can we take the photos today?""Of course, it's possible.""Then let's go with this set," Vivienne pointed to the set that Asher had chosen.It wasn't until she made the payment that Vivienne suddenly realized something.

    "Where do you find such luck?" Julian exaggeratedly wailed and then said, "If I had a boyfriend who loved me as deeply as Asher, I would definitely marry him immediately.""Really?" Vivienne asked."Of course it's true. Do you think it's easy to find a boyfriend like Asher?" Julian said.Vivienne admitted that it was indeed not easy to find someone in the vast sea of people who loved her deeply and whom she also loved.Julian handed a four-leaf clover to Vivienne. "This is a four-leaf clover, they say it brings good luck. I'm giving it to you!""Really? Thank you!" Vivienne said.Suddenly, Julian remembered something and said, "By the way, the acquisition of Four Seas Corporation failed, do you know about it?""Yes, I know." The news reported yesterday that GK Corporation was acquired by the Montgo Group, which means that Montgo Group won in the competition.In the morning, there were also many colleagues in Vivienne's company discussing this matter, and many people were worried, afra

    Scarlett knew that Marcie Jones looked down on her. Compared to the prestigious Marcie Jones, Scarlett's humble background could only be described as impoverished. Even though she was a popular actress now, she was still considered a lowly person in Marcie Jones's eyes, not worthy of marrying Ezra.But now, Marcie Jones had taken the initiative to meet her, which surprised Scarlett."I heard that you have a good relationship with the CEO of Montgo Corporation," Marcie Jones said as her opening remark.Scarlett was taken aback and quickly explained, "Actually, Mr. Montgo and I don't have much of a relationship. Many of the reports in the media are baseless rumors created by journalists to attract attention."Unexpectedly, Marcie Jones smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's not a bad thing to have a good relationship with Asher Montgo. As the mistress of the Donovan family, it's necessary to make more friends in the business world to become a supportive wife to her husband.""The mistress

    The silver-gray Maybach came to a stop in front of an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of the city, and Asher stepped out of the car. The surroundings were extremely dark, with streetlights visible only from a distance. The warehouse, immense in size, was surrounded by overgrown weeds, appearing silent and eerie in the darkness.Stepping on the gravel path, Asher seemed incredibly familiar with the terrain, taking each step as if he had known this place for a long time. He walked towards the entrance of the warehouse and pushed open the partially closed door, which emitted a heavy creaking sound.The empty warehouse was filled with dust and spiderwebs. The broken windows on the surrounding walls allowed the silver moonlight to seep in, casting a faint glow in the dimly lit space.Asher coldly stared at the person before him. "Why did you call me here? What do you want to say?"In the center of the warehouse stood Scarlett, her red lips curling up into a smile. She said, "Of course

    Scarlett collapsed to the ground, feeling a wave of pain in her jaw and cheeks as Asher released his grip. His fingerprints were imprinted on her cheeks, and her jaw felt numb, as if it had dislocated. If she hadn't been able to move it a few times, she would have thought it was indeed dislocated.Asher looked down at the woman gasping for breath from his superior position. "You should be grateful that you didn't say those words to me a few days ago." Otherwise, he might have lost control tonight and really taken her life.However, he had promised Vivi that he would try to control his emotions and not easily take someone's life.Scarlett didn't understand what Asher meant, but she didn't have the mind to think about it at the moment. Her mind was solely focused on what she would say to Marcie Jones if Asher didn't agree. If this continued, she would have no chance to turn the situation around. She would truly drift further and further away from Ezra. If one day Ezra really wanted to b

    In the middle of the night, Vivienne felt something wrapped around her wrist. She blinked sleepily and saw Asher with something on her hand."What is this?" She reached to turn on the bedside lamp.He held her hand and stopped her, saying, "Vivi, now I have you wrapped around my finger. So, you won't be able to leave me. You will love only me for the rest of your life."He murmured, his warm breath brushing against her cheek. She suddenly felt the hand he held becoming unbearably warm.The next morning, Vivienne finally saw clearly what Asher had wrapped around her hand in the middle of the night—a completed bracelet. She had seen him only halfway through it yesterday, so how... Vivienne stared at the bracelet in a daze. The only explanation was that Asher had continued weaving it after she fell asleep until the bracelet was completed.Her fingers gently traced the bracelet, feeling a mixture of emotions—touched, moved, and most of all, sweet. Looking at the bruise under Asher's eye,

    The day before Viola's due date, she was admitted to the hospital and underwent various routine checks. On the following day, Viola remained calm and even flipped through magazines before entering the operating room.In contrast, Nelson was visibly more anxious and approached the doctors several times, asking about various possible emergency situations during childbirth, even though they had already explained them to him many times.When Viola was wheeled into the operating room, Nelson's whole body tensed up. He stood outside the room, staring at the closed door as if he were a statue.Anyone could see how nervous he was, and as time passed, Nelson's complexion grew paler.Viola was considered an older mother, and despite the best doctors that the Montgo family had arranged and even with a caesarean section, there were still risks.Sebastian noticed Nelson's anxious state and gently patted his shoulder.

    "I..." Viola hadn't finished her sentence when Nelson's lips pressed against hers, stopping the words that were about to come out. His tongue swiftly entered her mouth, stirring her saliva, and he took her tongue into his mouth, biting it as if venting all his frustrations.Though her tongue wasn't bleeding, it hurt terribly, and her lips also throbbed with pain from the pressure of his lips. She tried to push him away, but his hands easily restrained her wrists."Mmm... Hmm..." Viola initially struggled, but she didn't dare to move too much, afraid of hurting the child in her belly. Giving up on resisting, she allowed Nelson to kiss her.He kissed her with his eyes closed, his long, thick eyelashes casting a heavy shadow on his eyelids. Meanwhile, she kept her eyes open, staring at his face that was now closer than ever before.He deepened the kiss, seeming to release pent-up emotions, indulging and losing himself in the sensation.When he finally ended the kiss, Viola knew she must

    When Viola returned to the Montgo mansion, Sebastian looked at her with a look of disbelief as she stood there with a big belly. Before leaving, Viola had told her family that she was sent to work in another city by the hospital, and her family didn't suspect anything. They just advised her to take care of herself while outside."How many months pregnant are you?" Sebastian's voice sounded."Almost 8 months," Viola replied honestly."How is your health? You're a doctor yourself, so you should know the risks of having a child at this age," Sebastian worriedly asked. After the shock, his main concern now was his sister's well-being."I know, but there shouldn't be any major problems if it's a cesarean section," Viola said. For women like her who have never given birth before, a cesarean section would be more suitable than a natural birth."Why didn't you stay at home?" Sebastian asked."Because I wanted to clear my mind and quietly find a place to give birth," without getting entangled

    Since the day they parted at the hospital, Nelson withdrew the surveillance around her, and he didn't want to know anything about her.

It turned out that Viola had gone to a remote village the next day and had been living there for several months.The car sped along the road. Viola, Viola! Nelson kept repeating her name in his heart.

    Nelson suddenly laughed, his laughter was cold, each laugh feeling like a chilling cold wind blowing across his cheeks.After a moment, his laughter ceased, and he stared straight at her, his voice icy to the extreme, "No regrets! I, Nelson, believe that I can do anything for you, but there's one thing I can't do. Viola, it's not up to you to decide when it's over! It may be over for you, but for me, it's not over yet!""What do you want to do?" His gaze and tone made her feel uneasy."Viola, unless you die, I'll follow you to the end, no matter what!" He said each word deliberately, like a bolt of thunder striking her mind, shaking her heart.She was stunned, and her heart pounded wildly. Did she make a mistake? Did she make a mistake? "To the end"... he actually said such words. Perhaps she had pushed him to the brink for him to say such ruthless words.
