CH 90.

Andrianne didn't know what to do. She couldn't face Lucas after what she just saw and heard in his office. The thought of him having a baby with Emily made her sick to her stomach. She knew she had to get away from him and the mansion. She couldn't bear to be in the same room as him, let alone the same house.

Jackie could see the distress on her friend's face and knew something was wrong. She tried to get Andrianne to talk to her, but Andrianne remained silent. She just wanted to be left alone.

As the day went by, Andrianne started to feel a little better. Being away from the mansion and Lucas seemed to ease her pain a bit. Jackie tried to distract her by taking her shopping and to a spa. Andrianne appreciated the effort, but her mind was still consumed by thoughts of Lucas and Emily.

That night, as they were getting ready for bed, Jackie gently asked Andrianne if she wanted to talk about what was bothering her. Andrianne hesitated at first, but then broke down and told Jackie

    CH 91Lucas rubbed his eyes and squinted at the clock on his nightstand. It was just past 6 in the morning. He groaned as he rolled over, hoping to catch a few more minutes of rest before his busy day began. But his peace was short-lived as his butler, Johnson, knocked on his door and interrupted his sleep."Mr. Lucas, there's a lady here to see you," Johnson said as he poked his head into the room.Lucas groaned again, knowing exactly who the lady was. "Who is it?""Miss Emily, sir," Johnson said, his voice full of disapproval.Lucas sighed and rubbed his temples. "Tell her I'm not available right now. I have a busy day ahead.""I already did, sir," Johnson said, "but she insists on seeing you. She said she won't leave until she talks to you."Lucas cursed under his breath. He knew he had to deal with this now or it would only get worse. He got out of bed and slipped on a robe before following Johnson downstairs. When he reached the living room, he saw Emily sitting on the couch, sur

    CH 93.Andrianne sat across from Jackie in the living room, cradling the mug of coffee in her hands. "I've made up my mind, Jackie," she said firmly. "I'm going to divorce Lucas."Jackie looked at her in surprise. "Are you sure, Andrianne? Have you thought this through?"Andrianne nodded. "I have. I can't stay in that house with Emily there. I just can't.""I understand," Jackie said sympathetically. "But what about your feelings for Lucas? Do you still love him?"Andrianne sighed. "I don't know anymore, Jackie. I thought I did, but after everything that's happened, I just feel so lost and confused.""I get it," Jackie said, placing a comforting hand on Andrianne's shoulder. "And I'll support you no matter what you decide to do. But just make sure you're doing this for the right reasons, and not just because of Emily."Andrianne nodded. "I know. But even without Emily, there are just so many issues between us that I don't think we can overcome."Jackie listened patiently as Andrianne

    CH 95.Lucas felt like he had been punched in the stomach. Andrianne had come to the house and he hadn't even known. And to make matters worse, Emily was the reason why Andrianne had run out. He clenched his jaw, trying to suppress the anger that was bubbling up inside him."What do you mean she came to the house?" Lucas asked Johnson, his voice laced with annoyance."She came here yesterday morning, sir. I believe she spoke to Miss Emily and then ran out when she saw her," Johnson replied calmly, even though he could sense the tension in the air.Lucas slammed his hand on the table, causing the plates and utensils to rattle. "And you didn't think it was important enough to come and tell me right away?" he snapped at Johnson."I apologize, sir. I thought you were still sleeping," Johnson said, his voice remaining calm despite Lucas's outburst.Lucas took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down. He knew it wasn't Johnson's fault, but he needed someone to blame. Andrianne was the onl

    CH 108Andrianne was about to leave her father's study, feeling overwhelmed by emotions when something caught her attention. At the far end of the room, on top of a pile of books, was a piece of paper that seemed to have fallen off a desk. She walked towards it, her eyes fixated on the paper. As she got closer, she realized it was a note. Her heart skipped a beat, wondering what it could be. She picked up the note and looked at it closely, her hands trembling slightly. It was a handwritten note from her father.The note was written on a piece of plain white paper, in her father's elegant cursive handwriting. It was dated about two months ago, and it started with "My dear Andrianne". As she read on, Andrianne's eyes widened in shock and disbelief. Her father had written about how he regretted all the pain he had caused her over the years, and how he was sorry for forcing her into a marriage she didn't want. He wrote about how he was happy to see that Lucas had been able to make her hap

She needed to leave the mansion.As she was packing her bags, Lucas walked in, but he still couldn't recognize her. Andrianne tried her best to hide her disappointment, but it was hard.

"I just need some time for myself."Lucas looked at her, his eyes searching for something, but he couldn't find it. "Okay, I understand. Take care of yourself," he said with a smile.A

She knew that Lucas had lost his memory, but she didn't expect him to forget her completely."Come on, let's get you home," she said, trying to hide her disappoin

    CH 104Andrianne's heart was pounding as she walked towards the entrance of the hospital.

    CH 103.Emily walked into the hospital room, her eyes scanning the area until they landed on Lucas. He was sitting up in bed, staring into space, his expression blank. Emily felt a twinge of pity for him. He looked so lost, so vulnerable. But she quickly pushed those feelings aside. This was her chance to hatch her plan."Lucas," she said softly, approaching his bed.Lucas looked up at her, his eyes dull and lifeless. "Emily," he said, his voice barely above a whisper."How are you feeling?" she asked, pulling up a chair and sitting down beside him.Lucas shrugged. "I don't really know," he said, his eyes still fixed on some invisible point in the distance.Emily leaned in closer. "Do you remember what happened?" she asked, trying to sound concerned.Lucas shook his head slowly. "No," he said, his voice barely audible. "I don't remember anything."Emily's heart raced with excitement. This was it. This was her chance to start fresh with Lucas, without Andrianne in the picture. "That's
