When Wyatt ran off, no one thought much of it. Bonnie and Maggie apologized to Lana and asked for her understanding.Lana wasn't someone who liked to trouble others, especially given her personality. Therefore, she only said that they should reprimand Wyatt more in the future, and then she let them go. Wyatt had caused such a mess that Bonnie felt embarrassed to stay there any longer. She left with Maggie in a hurry, as if they were running away. Nadia knew that she wouldn't be able to convince them to stay any longer, so she let them leave.The house had finally quieted down. Lana and Nadia looked at each other silently. Although they had only been apart for a few days, it felt as if the distance between them had grown even greater.Lana, who was terrified of this feeling, suddenly got up and ran to Nadia, hugging her tightly."Nadia, I miss you so much!"Nadia was a little bemused by Lana's sudden display of affection.She gently stroked Lana's head and said, "What are you
While Lana was anxious over Nadia's situation, Howard and Emilia were in the midst of trying on wedding dresses. Emilia was a well-known socialite in Dawsbury, so her upcoming wedding was naturally the talk of the town.Howard, who had suddenly become the future son-in-law of the Watson family, was naturally also held in high regard.Today, the two of them came to the Dawsbury branch of an internationally renowned bridal boutique. The chief designer had been waiting for Emilia's arrival since early morning. "Ms. Watson, as soon as our company received the news of your upcoming wedding, our chief designer worked overnight to design ten exclusive ceremonial wedding dresses for you. "Additionally, we have also designed ten reception dresses for the reception dinner. Our chief designer and models will now present these 20 outfits to you."As soon as the store manager finished speaking, the 20 models, all of whom were about the same height and build as Emilia, walked into the VIP l
Even if he had to face Liam's wrath, Howard had to admit that he was still in love with Nadia.Moreover, he was head over heels for her—Nadia had completely captivated him.Every time midnight rolled around, Howard would pick up his phone and look through the photos to reminisce about the joyful moments he had with Nadia. The unrestrained smiles on both their faces in the photos were proof of their love. Even the love in Nadia's gaze couldn't be denied.Howard was aware that Nadia liked him. However, he couldn't reciprocate her feelings back then."You're finally admitting it!"Emilia wasn't surprised by this expected response.Although they weren't truly in love, Emilia was still uncomfortable knowing he still had feelings for another woman. After all, Howard was about to become her husband.Howard said indifferently, "So what?"Emilia crossed her arms and said with a smirk, "Since that's the case, why aren't you with Nadia?"In response, Howard said coldly, "Weren't you th
However, when Howard was about to say something, he felt that all this was just him being suspicious of Emilia. He didn't have any substantial evidence, and even if he wanted to tell Lana, he didn't know where to start. "I'm sorry, I am probably being too paranoid."Howard apologized to Lana, "Sorry for bothering you. I'll hang up now."Howard abruptly ended the call. Lana didn't even have the time to tell him about what had happened to Nadia recently. She was so angry, she threw her phone to the side."Is Howard sick in the head?"This guy was simply unbelievable. He had been stringing Nadia along for who knows how long. And now that he was about to get married to Emilia, he still wanted to harass Nadia. What a disgusting man!Lana blamed Howard's strange behavior on his history of bad behavior—it was quite reasonable to assume so. Even if he had done something more outrageous, Lana wouldn't be surprised.However, Howard wasn't as heartless as Lana had imagined. After he dro
"You're going back to your hometown tomorrow?"Lana's voice even rose in surprise as she didn't expect this day to come so soon.It had only been a day since Nadia told her that she would be returning to her hometown with Bonnie to pay respects at her father's grave. Suddenly, she's telling her that she's leaving tomorrow? "What about Wyatt?"The journey ahead was extremely dangerous, and all of the danger came from Wyatt."Of course, he's coming along," Nadia said as she packed her luggage. "She continued, "I heard that the village doesn't have a direct road that connects to the surrounding areas. Once we get there, we'll need him to carry all of our belongings!"Lana's heart sank upon hearing this. "Is the place really that remote?""Yeah!"Nadia sighed wistfully, "That's why they haven't gone back for so many years. This time, they finally had the courage to go back because they finally found me."Lana felt a pounding headache as she listened.In such a remote place, if
"Damn, I never noticed how far out of the way our house is!" Wyatt said, looking quite annoyed. He pulled a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and started smoking.After another three hours, the mountain road became increasingly narrow. In some places, it looked as if there was no paved road at all. It was dark outside now, and there were no streetlights in the mountains. The driver was almost driving in the dark. After driving for less than 20 minutes, the driver suddenly stopped the minivan. He turned on the hazard lights and looked toward Bonnie. They exchanged a few words with his strong accent.Shortly after, the driver unfastened his seatbelt and got out of the minivan. He found a spot on the side of the road and relieved himself.Nadia had never seen such a scene before. She quickly lowered her head in embarrassment. "We'll have to spend the night in the minivan. It's too late, and the driver doesn't dare to keep going. Driving while tired is quite dangerous."Given the
Nadia had long been on guard against him, so how could she let him have his way?Nadia deftly evaded Wyatt's advances, wrapped her windbreaker tightly around her, and turned to leave the house.It was still broad daylight, Wyatt couldn't possibly do anything to her, right?However, Nadia had overestimated Wyatt's moral compass. She had escaped to the outside of the house, but she still couldn't escape Wyatt's harassment.And this time, Wyatt was openly and brazenly coming on to her.With no one in sight, Wyatt suddenly embraced Nadia from behind and said, "Hey, Nadia, we've been separated for so many years. Now that you're finally back, why not have a chat with your good ol' brother?"Nadia was terrified by his lewd behavior and kept shouting, "Let go of me! Are you out of your mind? I'm your sister!"Wyatt audaciously responded, "It's because you're my sister that I want to take good care of you.Wyatt embraced Nadia from behind, making it hard for her to fight back. It also a
When Nadia didn't reply to her messages, Lana felt increasingly uneasy. She immediately ran to the Garrison Group to find Liam.It was Lana's first time stepping into the Garrison Group, and Hector happened to be there too. He was as excited as a child as he enthusiastically took Lana on a tour.As Lana looked around the Garrison Group, which was several times larger than the Kane Group, she couldn't help but commend Hector for his years of efforts.Hector was beaming with pride as he asked, "Lana, aren't you impressed by this? Are you interested? Why don't I hand over this company to you?"Lana thought he was joking, so she went along with Hector's words. "Sure, as long as you want to.""Really?" Hector couldn’t believe Lana had actually agreed. He immediately pulled out his phone. "I'll have my lawyer come over right away. I need to change my will."Lana immediately stopped Hector. "Hold on! You're actually being serious?"Hector was momentarily taken aback and retorted, "Do
