6"Oh, Eleanor. Is this one of your many lovers? He even came all the way here to find you!" Jenna's contemptuous voice broke the silence.I wanted to say, "I'm the one who can't accept this, okay? I'm going to go crazy! How am I going to explain it to her?"Jenna glanced at the time again and said casually, "Well, it's still early. Go on and take him inside. I won't bother you anymore."After that, Jenna shook her head and walked away, sighing.Since things had come to that, I could only lead the handsome youth into my home....When I returned after pouring a glass of water, I realized he was no longer on the couch in a blink of an eye."Huh?"After scanning my surroundings, I found that he had suddenly gone beside the fish tank. His palm was pressed against the fish tank's glass, and his gaze followed the fish's movements.He looked pure and innocent, like a child who knew nothing about this world.I muttered silently, "Damn it! Does he not know that his look makes it eas
12The box was filled with nothing but shiny gold and pearls.With just one glance, one could tell it was worth hundreds of thousands of dollars....After sending the Shrimp Man and Crab Man away, I locked the jewelry pieces in the safety deposit box while humming a song.After that, I went downstairs to look for the handsome youth happily.The youth had finished his meal, leaving a portion for me. He was currently washing the dishes.I jumped up to the kitchen island beside him and sat down. As I swung my legs, satisfaction grew in my heart.After all, nobody would not like a handsome, young, and irresistible male servant like him."Are you really a dragon?" I asked curiously. As he did not answer, I continued asking, "What kind of dragon are you? Are you the kind of dragon in Europe with long wings that can spit fire? Or a dragon from Eastern myths?"The handsome youth lowered his eyes as he concentrated on washing the dishes. "A white dragon."My eyes lit up, and I immed
19I was someone who would lose my thinking ability when I panicked.I did not know why I was so anxious either.I was not afraid that he would actually return to the Dragon Palace. I was worried that he had been abducted into someone's home.Like a lost cat or dog, he would be confined and prohibited from going out.If he encountered a bad person, they might even do something vicious to him. I trembled when I thought about it.After Jenna came to look for me, she accompanied me to the property office to check the surveillance footage.The surveillance footage showed that after White Dragon sat at my door for a while, the neighbor's door behind him opened.My neighbor stood at the door and said something to him. Then, he picked up his things and went to my neighbor's house.As that place was the surveillance camera's blind spot, I could not see my neighbor's face clearly. Besides, despite having lived there for quite a long time, I had never met my neighbor. Thus, I did not ev
26After starting dating Draco, I always had a few questions.I wondered how he fell in love with me.Also, I couldn't understand how he managed to find me.Thus, I also asked him that.At that time, he looked away and said that my bathtub was the link between the Dragon Palace and the upper world. As soon as he came out, he found that he was in my bathtub.After hearing that, I felt quite unhappy.After all, if he had come out of someone else's bathtub, would it mean that he would be together with someone else?Besides, I did not own the house. I was just temporarily living there.The real owner of the house was someone else.It was unsure if the house owner knew about the magical function of his bathtub.In the evening, Draco was cooking while I was eating pistachios and watching TV, bored.The doorbell suddenly rang, so I went and opened the door. As soon as I opened it, a large handful of bright red roses stumbled into my view.When I raised my head in a daze, I made e
33Three years later, everyone in the community was curious about my identity when I moved in as a single mother.There were often elderly women who took the opportunity to chat with me to inquire about my age, my career, and my child's father.After knowing that I was about to turn 30 years old in 2 years, they would have incredulous expressions on their faces, thinking I was spouting nonsense.The rumor they spread behind my back was that I must have been a minor when I was pregnant. That was why now that my child was three years old, I looked like I was in my early twenties.Plus, I must have met the wrong person at a young age, causing me to cut ties with my family. I didn't get to marry my child's father either, so none of the elderly women saw any relatives or friends visiting me despite the fact I had moved there for such a long time.At that, I always laughed and did not bother to explain.In the morning, I sent my child to school. At the kindergarten gate, I squatted do
Author: Wan He Chui Yan "I don't want to be like a brother to you anymore."When Lucas Xanthos said these words, he was very serious. He even knelt on one knee. Everything was idyllic and all that I had imagined before.However, because of him, I became a plaything for his brother, Leonardo Xanthos.1I was an orphan. I became Lucas' childhood friend when I was young. Eventually, I was adopted by the Xanthos family.I never thought of becoming a social climber, but I did not expect Lucas to propose to me early.After the engagement party, news reports about it were all over the place. The continuous envious looks of others made me feel that I was happy, and yet, it was slightly surreal.It was just that happiness came and went quickly.When I woke up, I slept in Leonardo's bed.The door of the hotel was opened wide, and reporters took countless photos. It was as if they were going to push me into a deep abyss. Meanwhile, at that time, Lucas was standing at the doorway,
9"Maddie."Lucas looked at me in astonishment. He probably did not expect me to call his name like this. He said in a deep voice, "Come home with me."Leonardo paused for a second and glanced at me.I felt shivers running down my spine. Subconsciously, I lowered my gaze and gripped my fingers tightly. I could not help but have tears brimming in my eyes. I had to bite my lip hard.From the first day I was locked in here, I knew that nothing good would come from making Leonardo angry."Leonardo! You're imprisoning her illegally!" As Lucas struggled, he panted and roared, "Do you want to go to jail?"Leonardo ignored Lucas. The former merely stared at me and carefully hissed, "Tell him. Who sent you here?"Tears fell from my eyes. I only felt that I was about to nearly wring off my fingers, but I had to answer, "Mrs. Xanthos."It was Linda who sent me here.It was as if Linda was presenting me as a gift. After sending me to Leonardo, she left without a word. I became an abandon
19Half a month later, perhaps the news about me and Leonardo was slowly fading away. Thus, Leonardo actually took me out."Leo."Leonardo turned the steering wheel, glanced at me from the side, and said casually, "You don't have to be nervous. After all, you're not worth much even if I were to sell you."I was at a loss for words.It was better for me to keep silent. As long as he did not sell me like how Linda did, everything was fine to me.Speaking of which, I even felt lucky to stay at Leonardo's side. At the very least, I could go to Acocester University. It was a dream that many people had.20I had imagined Leonardo would take me to a reception or a party. However, I did not expect him to take me to a stationery store.After we arrived, he merely said, "I'm giving you half an hour to buy all the stationery you need for four years."I was at a loss as I looked at him. When I met his dark eyes, I hurriedly took a basket and started to choose.Everything I bought was ei
