Although the photo did not depict Narda and Luke Huxley in an intimate relationship, it did show that they knew each other well. Narda's deceptive, fake love story led everyone to assume that Luke Huxley was her boyfriend upon seeing the photo. Sherly also pondered this thought and eventually shared what she had witnessed.
"Actually, I saw your boyfriend holding Professor Hansley's hand and saying something," Sherly disclosed.He couldn't hear him because he was far away, but I think the relationship between them is not simple. The way she looked at Professor Hansley was full of affection.
Sherly tried to imply it subtly, but everyone realized what she was trying to convey. The group chat fell silent, creating an awkward atmosphere.Narda's smile froze on her face, and then her expression turned grim.Did Luke Huxley go to Johnston University to meet Dexie? Even Sherly, a stranger, could sense Luke Huxley's affection for Dexie. Did it meaLuke Huxley remained silent."Have you finished talking to her?""No, not yet."Beep! Beep! Beep!Luke Huxley abruptly ended the call with Sam.Every time Sam mentioned Dexie, Luke felt a pang of discomfort as he referred to her as his ex-wife. "That really struck a nerve. Aside from that, Sam even admitted that he had no right to compete."He couldn't shake the suspicion that his sister had sent Sam to taunt him.After hanging up, Luke felt a tightness in his chest, growing more uneasy.Luke thought of Roy, whom Sam had mentioned, and remembered the genuine smile on Dexie's face when she saw him earlier that day. It was a natural smile.Roy even stepped out of the car to help Dexie with her seatbelt. If only Luke could see inside the car, he might have guessed what was happening.Roy's gesture of assisting Dexie with her seatbelt seemed intimate enough to trigger Luke's jealousy. The jealousy and bitterness consumed him, making him
Luke Huxley was nowhere in sight as the city prepared to go to sleep. She waited and waited. When she grew tired of waiting, she would fall asleep. However, even after she woke up, he still hadn't come home. Day after day, she waited, but in the end, all she received was a divorce settlement from him. Even though all these events had passed, she could still vividly recall them whenever she found herself alone.The two people she trusted the most had ruthlessly betrayed her. One of them was her father. In her previous life, she had believed he would always support her unconditionally, but he wanted to harm her for having an illegitimate child.The other was the man she thought she could love for a lifetime, without any regrets. However, he despised her so much that he didn't even acknowledge her when she was on the brink of death. His last act of kindness was to pick up her lifeless body. A sudden chill ran down her spine as she curled up in a corner of the co
“Last night, I dreamt that you were in a car accident, and you left me... You left me forever."Even though it was just a dream, it had never felt so real to Luke Huxley before. It was as if the scene had unfolded before his eyes. When he thinks about it now, the stabbing pain in his heart still feels intense.His voice shook as he spoke. "I wanted to look for you, but I searched all night and couldn't find you."Thank God, thank God. It's just a dream."A hot tear rolled down the corner of his eye, and he hugged Dexie even tighter.Dexie's entire body tensed when she heard Luke Huxley say, "I dreamed you were in a car accident." Her mind flooded with memories of the moments before her death, causing her to freeze in place. She also forgot to separate herself from Luke Huxley.Dexie finally felt suffocated from not being able to breathe, but when she snapped back to reality, she saw that Luke Huxley wa
She didn't know why Luke Huxley had done that. Was it because of the dream he had?He said that he had dreamed that she had died in a car accident, so he ran to her at midnight to find her, without worrying about his own health. Dexie still didn't believe that Luke Huxley really had feelings for her at this point in her life, so her reactions were drastically different from her past life.Instead of not believing it, she didn't dare to believe it.How could someone who had fought in darkness dare to look at the light of hope?Dexie stood next to Luke Huxley's bed and stared into his face for a long time. She then raised her foot to leave, but the moment she turned around, a potent force grabbed her hand.“Don't go, honey. Please don't leave. We've been together for two years. Why are you really going to leave me, dear?" Dexie pleaded, looking at Luke Huxley's tightly gripped hand. She raised her head and met Luke Huxley's pa
Marilyn didn't mince her words. Initially, she refrained from taking Narda away because she had traveled a long way to visit Luke Huxley. However, now she was adamant about not leaving Narda to act insincerely in front of Luke Huxley.Narda's expression hardened at Marilyn's response. She then defended herself weakly, "Marilyn, that's not what I meant. I'm simply concerned about Luke Huxley."What if we don't hurry? Miss Hansley leaves, and something happens to Luke Huxley.""What could happen to him? Do you think the nurses here are neglecting their duties?" Marilyn scoffed, questioning Narda's motives. "I think you just want to stir up trouble," she added.Narda's eyes welled up at Marilyn's remarks. "Marilyn, have I ever offended you? Why do you have to think of me like that?" She then looked pleadingly at Luke Huxley, hoping he would come to her defense. However, he appeared lost in his own world, savoring the unappetizing toast as if it w
Narda's cousin, Jean Tisdon, lived closer, and Luke Huxley was her favorite brother, so naturally, he visited the Tisdon family often.At this time, their servants attended to Luke Huxley and Marilyn. Luke Huxley's mother was not in good health and was resting in another mansion, while his father was entirely focused on the company, rarely paying attention to the daily lives of his children.In contrast, old Mrs. Tisdon was very kind to him. Every time he visited the Tisdon family, old Mrs. Tisdon cooked his favorite food and took care of him as if he were her grandson.Narda, a year younger than him, often stayed next to old Mrs. Tisdon, and they naturally grew up together.Old Mrs. Tisdon would joke that she would get Narda married to him when they grew up.Luke Huxley cared little about relationships at the time; he just keptlistening, so he subconsciously thought he would marry Narda early on.
Roxane continued, "He was talking.""It's true that I was the one who recorded you in class. I wanted to send it to dad so he could see that you were teaching at Johnston University, but I didn't know it would end up causing so much trouble. Dexie, I'm so sorry. I really didn't want to hurt you on purpose. Please forgive me."Roxane's words made her seem very innocent, as if the whole incident had nothing to do with her. She shifted all the responsibility to Rodel.To protect herself and still appear fair, Roxane blamed her own father and made him look worse than he already did.Dexie looked into Roxane's slightly red eyes, laughed, and addressed Roxane in front of the entire class, "Would you sell out your own father just like that? Aren't you afraid that he would disown you if he knew the whole truth?"Dexie was hinting at a smile on her face, leaving everyone puzzled about her intentions. Her words made Roxane's heart skip a beat.Dexie's
Roxane pointed furiously at Dexie's calm, smiling face; her vision blurred as her body trembled as if she were about to fall.The next second, Roxane felt Dexie give her a tremendous tug, bringing Roxane right in front of her.Roxane watched Dexie lean close to her ear and speak with a voice that only the two of them could hear."Regardless of what you want from me, I will tell you three words. It will never happen."Dexie abandoned her nihilistic attitude immediately after speaking, leaving only a sense of coldness in her wake.Roxane had not spent a year at Johnston University cultivating her image as a weak and delicate girl at all. Despite facing a beating the day before, Roxane's current state would lead any guy to believe Dexie was being unduly harsh with her.As the saying goes, simping too hard simply won't do, as it will make you lose everything.However, before they lost everything, they would remain simple-minded.Ev
