The twenty-minutes break was over, and they got on the bus. Without the noise from the child, Renee fell asleep very soon.When she woke up, they had already arrived in a small town.Renee asked around with a faded picture in her hand. The house in the picture was very unique, so it would be easy to identify.The house was located in a village near the town. There was no vehicle they could take, and it would take twenty minutes to go there on foot.She found an elder, who recognized the house in the picture and told her that the family used to live inside had moved away a long time ago, and the house was pulled down.There were only a few people left in the village.Renee was very disappointed upon hearing that."Where did the hostess of the house move to?""The hostess? She's dead. She was sick and died when she was young. She got sick not long after she was married into our village and needed a lot of money for treatment. Most of her savings were spent, and in the end, her husband t
“ I don't have anything to say to you. Even if I marry Luca in the future, I don't think we"ll have anything to talk about. You don't like me, and I hate you as well.""I want to leave. Can't you help me arrange it?"Giovanna was surprised upon hearing that. She couldn't believe those words actually came from Allegra.***********Giovanna drove to Allegra’s house as soon as possible. She clenched her fists involuntarily at the sight of that sofa.When Allegra came out from the shower, Giovanna said in a cold voice, "I"ll have some people to come over and change a new sofa for you tomorrow."Allegra trembled in her heart upon hearing that, glancing at the sofa instinctively.That night..."Get rid of it. Anyway, I don't want to stay in this house anymore. I have applied for a temporary absence from school for one year. You can arrange a place for me to go, and it'd be better if I won't be able to come back in a year.""Are you sure you want to do this? Or are you just fooling me around
She knew why Dante was doing this. He wanted to improve her social status to prevent her from being bullied by others in the future.But...Dante would not be there with her.If he wasn't around, she would feel insecure, and her heart would start to race before she could even walk out the door."Can I not go? Well, I feel very vigorous and energetic now. Didn't you just say that you weren't planning to give it to me?"Renee begged pathetically.She was afraid her legs would begin to shiver before she boarded the plane."Isabelle sent this invitation yesterday. This event is very influential, so it's difficult for a rookie like you to handle. But this is a good chance hard to get. As long as you're covered by social media when you attend the party with Isabelle, your status will become different immediately. I'm doing this for your own good. You have to go.""But...""Silly girl, I know it's hard to be at my side. I feel bad to see you being trapped in a dilemma. But I don't have any o
“Madam, this is the steak for you. Since no fire is allowed on the plane, the steak is taken to the plane after it has been cooked. It is preserved by advanced technology to make sure that it tastes as good as it's just cooked. This is arranged for you specially by Mr. Medina. Please enjoy it!""Um. It's always so troublesome every time."Isabelle said helplessly before she picked up the knife and the fork to eat the food elegantly.The flight attendant was about to leave but was stopped by Renee."What about me?""Your airline meal will be here very soon.""Airline meal? Don't I get the red wine and steak?""You’ll have the red wine. But the steak is prepared for Mrs. Medina by her husband. It's exclusive."“Well, has anyone reminded you to give me any extra service?"Renee said with expectation. Didn't Dante show any gesture?"Oh, right. Mr. Moretti has given me instruction. Sorry, I forgot, lady.""That's more like it. I knew he would do something for me!"Renee looked at Isabelle w
I don't care whether she is Dante's girlfriend or not. I just know that the Medinas are not allowed to be a joke in public. There is a cost for being my goddaughter.""I'm afraid that she'll wear out your temper.""I don't believe there is a student who I can't teach in this world!"Isabelle said determinedly.After hanging up the phone, she went to check on Renee.Isabelle had decided that she wouldn't be merciful if Renee dared to eat the food with her mouth wide open.Since she had set her foot into the upper-class society, she should have the basic manners a celebrity should have.Isabelle knew she needed to be tough on Renee, otherwise in the future, the latter wouldn't only embarrass the Moretti Family, but also embarrass the Medina family.She pushed the door open, only to see Renee was sitting upright and cutting the steak. She was trying hard to control her strength and make as small noise as possible.The recording pen beside was playing her instructions just now."The steak
As soon as he finished speaking, they landed on the cement floor steadily.They landed safely. It was merely a short flight from the thirty-eighth floor to the sixty-second floor.But she was rather content.Her rope was unfastened, and the helicopter flew away as well.Just then, there was colorful light blooming behind her.Fireworks!Renee was in shock at the scene when she turned around.The roof was filled with fireworks, which were set off at the same time.On the large LED screen in the distance, it was playing the image of fireworks as well, which made many people on the ground stop to watch."How beautiful it is!"Renee was extremely delighted. She didn't know she would have the chance to see this in her life.There had never been a person who would pay so much effort to entertain her with surprise.She couldn't help but burst into tears as she enjoyed the view.Dante wrapped her in his arms from behind gently, and said, "Why are you crying? Don't you like it?""Yes, I like i
She pushed Dante away and looked down, only to see a necklace on her neck, with a ring hanging on it.A ring?"Uh... ""Is this loving lunch delicious?""Why would you want to send me a ring all of a sudden?""It's the size of your ring finger. I've bought this a long time ago. Since you can't wear it at the moment, so I figure I should just hang it on your neck. The diamond is not very large, as I'm afraid that you might get robbed. When you turn twenty, I'll give you a larger one.""As large as a pigeon egg?""You know about pigeon egg?""Yes, I do. It always says on the TV dramas that eighteen karats are nothing, as only the pigeon egg is a real deal.""Fine. I'll give a pigeon-egg diamond.""Well, then you'll need to open a bank safe for me. I need to deposit it!"Renee said anxiously.She didn't know that despite its small size, the diamond hanged on her neck was a unique pink diamond, pure and premium. It was one of a kind in the world.There was only a bit in the mineral rock,
Renee disappeared behind the door of the hotel hastily. After all, she was just a little girl, and she felt shy.Dante fixed his gentle and warm gaze on her receding figure until she disappeared.He put his hand to feel the heart, which had not been racing so fast for many years. He was like a dying patient who had just regained the chance of surviving.Dante left with reluctance, while someone came out from the dark corner quietly.The shadow of the tall figure appeared to be long and lonely under the street light.A drop of blood fell on the white snow slowly and formed a pattern of a scarlet flower.The nail had embedded into the flesh, and it was so painful that he felt numb to it.How could this pain be compared with the pain in his heart?He saw their intimacy and heard the speech Renee just made. How much did he wish those words would be addressed to him?He came here with the intention of checking on her secretly, but he didn't expect that he would have to see this.Arturo’s h
