Helen also saw Emily.She didn't want Jake and Emily to meet.Helen reached out and hooked her arm around Jake's, whispering, "Jake, can we go to a different restaurant?"Jake seemed to not hear her, his gaze fixed intently on Emily.Perhaps because Jake's gaze was too intense, Emily, who had been focusing on her meal, instinctively looked up toward the restaurant entrance.When she saw Jake and Helen, she couldn't help but furrow her brows.Emily muttered softly, ‘What are the odds of running into them while having a meal? Maybe I should check my horoscope before going out today.’The young agent, who hadn't heard clearly, asked curiously, "Miss Sanders, what did you say?"Emily gave a slightly awkward smile. "I was just talking to myself."It seemed like Jake had deliberately chosen to sit across from them with Helen.So throughout the meal, Emily couldn't help but notice the two of them feeding each other.Emily sighed.She didn't expect Jake to be so serious this time.

Hearing Emily's distant tone, Jake became enraged.He sneered. "What? Your boyfriend can't even afford a car and is giving you a lift on a small electric scooter?"Emily didn't expect Jake to be so childish. She snapped back, "It's none of your business."Jake didn't care. "Since we've known each other, my girlfriend said she wants me to give you a lift."The real estate agent, sensing the tension between the three, didn't want to get involved in the game of the rich. He quickly distanced himself."Miss Sanders, we can look at the other house another day, or I can arrange for a female colleague from the company to take you."Emily smiled politely. "Sorry, I've taken up a lot of your time today."When Jake heard this, he realized he had misunderstood, and his expression softened. He voluntarily moved the car out of the way.The agent seized the opportunity and quickly left on his scooter.Emily didn't want to bother with Jake. She turned and walked in the opposite direction.N

Emily didn't say anything.Liam, who was driving, turned his head to look at Emily and grinned. "Emily, where are you headed?"Emily thought for a moment and replied, "Summit Road."Liam seemed surprised. "That place is quite far. Why are you headed there?"Emily didn't mind and answered truthfully, "My father is in a sanatorium over there. I want to visit him."Since her unpleasant argument with her mother last time, she hadn't had the chance to visit her father at the sanatorium. Now that she was out, she decided to take the opportunity to visit him.Liam was a bit taken aback. "Could it be the the Summit Sanatorium?"Emily nodded gently and gave a quiet reply.Liam casually remarked, "That sanatorium isn't very good. How could your family put your dad there?"Emily lowered her eyes and didn't respond. Luke, who was sitting beside her, stared at her for a few seconds before frowning and saying, "Just drive the car. Stop talking so much."As soon as he finished speaking, a r

Liam was completely stunned after hearing the loud bang.He asked cautiously, "I say, bro, what's with the attitude?"Luke said coldly, "You drive the car back yourself."Liam was rendered speechless.He had never realized that Luke was so petty before. He was always throwing tantrums for no reason.Liam laughed awkwardly. "Luke, don't be mad, okay? This is your car."Luke didn't bother responding. He waved his hand at Liam and turned to head toward the sanatorium.After Emily got out of the car, she pulled out a map to search for the exact location of the sanatorium.As she walked, she suddenly felt someone was staring at her from behind.This area was in a more remote part of the city, surrounded by old residential houses.Emily instinctively quickened her pace.But she could clearly feel that the person behind her was also speeding up.She stopped and turned around.The man who had been in the car was now standing by the side of the road, pretending to look at his phone

When Emily came out of the sanatorium, it was already completely dark, and it had started snowing lightly at some point.She had rushed out earlier today, dressed rather thinly, and her slender figure looked especially desolate and fragile in the cold.She felt groggy and looked ill.She had thought that her mother would, out of respect for their more than 20 years of marriage, at least take good care of her father, even if she couldn't afford good medical care.But what was the result? When she arrived, her father was the only one lying alone in the shabby hospital bed, and the room was filled with a foul, rotten smell.Fuming, she found the person in charge and learned that her mother didn't want to spend a penny.If she was going to be heartless, at least she should stop making excuses about not having money.The things she had bought for her son last time were enough to cover her father's medical fees for a whole year.Emily let out a heavy sigh and checked the time on her

Luke glanced down at the 20-dollar bill in the girl's hand but did not take it.Emily immediately became a little angry. "Luke, what exactly do you want?""My place is in the same direction as your school. We can share a taxi to save some money," replied Luke.Emily looked at him, clearly not believing him. "Really?"Luke gave a helpless smile. "Emily, do I have no credibility with you right now?"They reached the main road and finally hailed a taxi.On the way, Emily kept her head down, playing with her phone, ignoring the man sitting beside her."Don't play with your phone in the car. You'll get travel sick," Luke suddenly said.Emily glanced at him. "I don't get travel sick.""I do."Emily was too lazy to argue further and turned off her phone, gently leaning her head against the car window, closing her eyes.Luke quietly gazed at her, his eyes openly filled with satisfaction.Perhaps because she had been caught in the snow earlier, Emily's hair was still slightly damp,

On the other side, after getting off work, Jake started texting people to go to the bar.When Campbell arrived in the private room, he saw Jake pouring alcohol directly from the bottle into his mouth.Annoyed, Campbell walked over and grabbed the bottle out of Jake's hand. "What's this supposed to mean? You call your brothers over, and all we see is you drinking?"Jake had already drunk quite a bit and was somewhat drunk. He kicked the table in frustration. "Damn it, those men, one after another."Campbell sat lazily on the sofa next to him, his legs crossed over the coffee table, and casually asked, "What happened now?"Jake didn't answer but picked up the bottle and continued drinking.Seeing his state, Daniel, who had come in with Campbell, grew concerned. "Campbell, what's going on with Jake?"Campbell replied, nonchalantly "What else could it be? He's heartbroken."Daniel was a bit shocked. "He and Emily had a fight?"Clearly, Daniel didn't know what had happened between

Emily sighed. "I understand."Half an hour later, Emily appeared at the gate of Jake's villa.Daniel saw her and looked at her like a savior."Emily, you’re finally here."Emily glanced inside, "How is he?""He's lying on the sofa, saying he doesn't want to listen. Emily, sorry to trouble you tonight. I'll head back to school first."After saying that, without waiting for Emily to respond, he quickly slipped away.The next day.When Jake woke up, he found himself lying on the bed, still wearing the same clothes from yesterday.Emily was a neat freak. If she knew he was this messy, she would definitely despise him.Jake got up and went to take a shower.When he came out again, he felt much more awake.Last night, he had a dream. He dreamed that Emily had come back, cooked for him, and took care of him all night.He looked around, and everything seemed cold and quiet.It was indeed a dream.In reality, he thought Emily really had come back.Jake went to the living room wi

"So, Wendy, what brings you here? Could it be that you're here to get back together with me? I'm so sorry, but we've already broken up. By the way, you look really ugly right now." Gary's voice was filled with mockery and disdain.Wendy's body trembled with anger and her face was pale.She had never been so mad at a man in her life.She took a deep breath in an attempt to calm herself down, but her heart was still pounding quicker and quicker. It was as if her heart was going to explode.Wendy closed her eyes as she forced herself to remain calm.When she opened them again, her eyes looked completely calm."Yes, you're right. We've already broken up." Wendy's voice was cold and firm.She sounded like she didn't care.Gary was a little taken aback. He didn't expect Wendy to admit so easily that they had broken up.He thought Wendy would continue to make a fuss or beg him to get back together with her. After all, Wendy was the person who pursued him to begin with.However, only

Emily yelled, "Wendy, where are you going?"Wendy was hurriedly putting on her shoes. She gritted her teeth and replied, "Going to find that heartless scumbag and settle things."Emily, hearing this, quickly stretched out her arms to block her. "It's pitch dark outside, and you've just been discharged from the hospital. Your leg is still not fully healed—why are you going to find him?"Wendy paused as if suddenly realizing something. "You are right. My leg hasn't recovered yet."With that, her gaze intensified, falling on Emily."Emily, you should come with me! You'll beat him up for me when we get there."Emily looked at her helplessly, "Wendy, don't be so impulsive! We can talk this through calmly."Wendy widened her eyes in anger, grumbling, "No way! That guy is a jerk, I must go and settle the score with him!"Emily quickly tried to calm her down. "Alright, alright, let's just calm down first."Wendy was unamused. "Calm down my ass. That bastard has been using my money to

"Then why haven't you broken up yet?""I’m waiting for the right opportunity?"Emily paused. "Has the opportunity come now?"Wendy nodded. "It should be coming soon."Just as she finished speaking, Wendy's phone rang. She picked up the phone and saw a new message notification flashing on the screen.She gently tapped the screen, and a conversation window popped up showing a breakup message from Gary.Her brows slightly furrowed, but the corner of her mouth lifted into a barely noticeable smile as she said softly, "And here it is."Then, she handed the phone to Emily, who was sitting beside her, and smiled. "Take a look, he’s a true scumbag. Says he has no feelings anymore."Emily took the phone, glanced at the message, and a hint of disgust appeared on her face as she said, "I didn't have a good impression of him that day either."Wendy looked at Emily curiously and asked, "What happened?"Emily then told Wendy exactly what had happened that day.When Wendy heard it, she imm

The day Wendy was discharged from the hospital, it was Emily who went to the hospital to help her with the discharge paperwork.As for her little boyfriend, Wendy said they had fought again and he had started playing hide-and-seek.Emily was a little speechless but didn't say anything.After leaving the hospital, Wendy suggested going shopping to help her buy some daily necessities.The two of them went directly to the supermarket. After buying what they needed, they took a taxi to Emily's small apartment.Wendy sat in the living room, surveying the room's environment. Looking at Emily who was washing vegetables in the kitchen, she said, "Emily, your place is too cramped. There’s no space to move around if there are two nore people in here."Emily responded while washing the vegetables, "I think it's quite nice. Besides, it's close to several companies I applied to.""You've started looking for a job?"Emily nodded. "Yes, but I haven't found one yet."As soon as she finished s

Emily found herself both amused and helpless. Half-joking, she said, "I guess I'll have to keep my distance from you from now on.""You don't need to.""I'm afraid you'll get triggered and punch me."Luke immediately became displeased. "Emily, are you asking for trouble?"Emily chuckled. "You see..."Luke remained silent for several seconds before saying, "Don't worry. I won't punch you."Emily paused but didn't respond.Luke continued, "Now that you know all my embarrassing stories, shouldn't you tell me some of yours in return?"Emily was slightly stunned. "Me?"Luke responded, waiting for Emily to continue.Emily opened her mouth, "I don't have anything to say.""I've shared my story with you. Are you not going to share? Isn't that a little inappropriate?"Emily was a little speechless. "You're the one who wanted to tell the story, not me..."Before she could finish, Luke interrupted, "Who said I wanted to listen? I'm just curious."Emily muttered under her breath, "Wh

Emily lowered her eyes, fell silent for a moment, then quickly denied, "No, it's just that I misunderstood."There was a slight pause on the other end, and his tone became heavier. "Then which of my actions made you come to that misunderstanding?"Emily felt a wave of embarrassment, staying silent for a while, then explained in a soft voice, "The last time at Jake's house, I overheard what Liam said, that's why I misunderstood.""Is there another reason?""Also, when you helped me put on the band-aid at your grandmother's house."As she spoke, Emily's voice grew softer, almost like the hum of a mosquito.Luke suddenly chuckled.Emily felt both embarrassed and angry, clutching the phone tightly, secretly annoyed in her heart.She didn't need to think to know that the man on the other end was probably mocking her stupidity and childishness."Well, Emily, you really are..."Before Luke could finish his sentence, Emily impatiently interrupted/ "Okay, no need to say more, I unders

Emily carefully looked at the address on the package, it was indeed hers, and the name was also hers.She gently opened the bag, and the aroma of beef and tomatoes filled her nose.Suddenly, her phone on the table vibrated. Feeling a little suspicious, Emily walked over and picked it up.It was a call from Luke.She froze for a moment before pressing the answer button. "Hello?"As soon as she spoke, a deep, magnetic voice from the other end of the line came through. "Did you get it?"Emily, still in a daze, replied in confusion, "What?""I knew you'd get so caught up in things that you'd forget to eat, so I ordered takeaway for you."Only then did Emily realize what Luke was talking about. "So it was you who ordered it?""Yeah, surprised?""How did you know the address?""I helped you move, of course I knew."Emily hadn't expected that he had specifically asked for her full address. She tightened her grip on the phone, her heart suddenly racing uncontrollably.She tried to

Emily was a little surprised, as if she had heard something unbelievable. "Are you guys going to help me move my luggage to my house?""What else?"Emily awkwardly smiled and quickly led them towards the elevator.She rented a place on the 19th floor. Although the environment downstairs was a bit shabby, the apartment inside was filled with a warm atmosphere. The simple one-bedroom apartment felt like a cozy little nest, just the right size to contain her dreams and hopes.However, for the two men who were both over 5.9 feet in height, the space in here was a bit small. Just by standing in the living room, even Emily felt a little crowded, as if the room was struggling to breathe."Emily, your place is too small,""I live alone, it's not small.""Well, it'll be inconvenient for me to visit in the future."Emily's lips twitched.She thought to herself, ‘I don’t think I’ve ever invited you.’With that, she turned to look at Luke.Since entering, Luke had said nothing, wanderin

Helen choked on her words, her voice intermittent. "I... I don't want money."Liam spoke without mercy. "You don't want money? Do you want to get beaten again? Be smart. Take the money and go to a hospital."After that, he left one of his business cards and sternly warned her. "If you don't have enough money, contact me. And by the way, I'll remind you, my friend's temper is like a ticking time bomb, ready to explode. Don't mess with him."Upon hearing this, Helen nervously raised her eyes to look at Luke.When their eyes met and she saw the cold, murderous look in his gaze, she recoiled, like a frightened rabbit, and began to sob softly.Liam shook his head helplessly and walked in front of Luke, trying to persuade him earnestly. "Luke, why are you so impulsive?"Luke's face remained as dark as ever. He said nothing, took off his expensive jacket, and threw it into the nearby bin as if it were garbage. He then strode toward the car park.Liam glanced at the discarded jacket wit
