Author: Royal Shrine
I wrapped my arms around his neck, took out my phone, and snapped a photo while planting a kiss on his cheek.

At the moment of the kiss, Raleigh's pupils slightly contracted.

"I have to post this on my social media, or else you might disappear on me."

Before Raleigh could react, I swiftly posted the picture and then casually opened the food container he brought.

A fragrant aroma filled the air as steam rose from the dishes.

I noticed they were all my favorite dishes from university - braised fish, meatballs, along with various meats and vegetables, all beautifully arranged.

I glanced at the other thermos and found it contained pumpkin soup.

As I looked at the dishes, I felt a brief surge of emotion, but it soon faded, and I regained my composure.

My mom looked at me happily enjoying the food, then at Raleigh with a grateful expression. "You're so thoughtful, Raleigh. We were just about to ask Stella what she would like to eat, and you brought the food for her."

"It's no trouble, Mrs.

  • I Became the Lover of My Ex-Boyfriend's Archenemy   Chapter 19

    As our lips met, Raleigh's pupils suddenly contracted. This was our first kiss. I had kissed him once before, but it was just on the cheek. He lifted my head with his hand, deepening the kiss. After a while, he rolled over, allowing me to lie on the bed, and fervently kissed my lips. It was intense, almost animalistic. The air grew hot and humid. "Raleigh, Raleigh," I struggled to catch my breath, my tongue tingling, and I placed my hand on his chest, blushing deeply. "Aren't we rushing things a bit?" Raleigh's eyes were deep, with a hint of tenderness. "Sorry, I might have drunk too much," he said, but he pressed his body against mine, wrapped his arms around my waist, and drifted off to sleep.I struggled a bit but found I couldn't move. I glanced at him and noticed he appeared relaxed as if he was truly asleep.Since I couldn't leave, I spent the night at Raleigh's place. Early the next morning, I rolled over and fell into a warm embrace. Opening my eyes, I saw Raleigh lyi

    I searched around and found Raleigh in the second-floor bedroom. He reeked of alcohol, slouched on the edge of the bed, holding a wine bottle in one hand and clutching a photo frame in the other. His shirt was half unbuttoned, exposing his fair and sturdy chest.When I reached for the wine bottle, he released his grip.However, the moment I took hold of the photo frame, he abruptly opened his eyes, his deep and intense gaze locking onto me, clouded with the effects of alcohol."Don't touch this," he said, his voice husky. His words piqued my curiosity, so I smiled and asked, "Can I see?" "No," he replied sharply.Seeing his stubbornness, I didn't insist. Instead, I helped him up, laid him on the bed, removed his shoes, and then went to fetch him a glass of water. While he drank, I took a peek at the photo frame. It was a picture of me kissing him.“What’s so precious about this?” I wondered."Raleigh, why did you drink so much? This isn't like you," I asked in a serious tone as I

    Justin teared up.He was truly homeless now.Without any friends and lovers.Justin suddenly remembered his university graduation, a time when he got into trouble, ended up in the hospital, and was eventually kicked out of home by his father. It was Stella who came to his rescue and helped him out of that situation.Before, Stella would readily come to his side with just one call or message."Stella..." Justin sat at my doorstep for a long time. When he saw me come out of the house, he quickly stood up and called out to me, his gaze fixed on me.I paused my steps, looking at the miserable Justin, and was stunned for a moment.Justin got beaten up, his face bruised, his eyes devoid of their usual sparkle, and his clothes stained with mud."Mr. Reed, do you need something?" I asked expressionlessly.Hearing the words "Mr. Reed," Justin's eyes welled up with tears as he looked at me.He knew there was no chance for him to get back with me."Stella, if only you hadn't lost your memory, we

    Justin was speechless."I wasn't sincere with Jasmine, but what about you and Raleigh? Who are you to accuse me? You slept with him too, didn't you?" He found an opening and interrogated me."Whether I did or didn't, what does it matter to you?" I retorted coldly."The old me died the moment you pushed me into the sea. Everything afterward has nothing to do with you," I said, my gaze darkening gradually.Justin felt a pang in his heart seeing my indifferent expression. He grabbed my hand, still trying to argue. "I won't break up with you. I can just dump Jasmine. I don't love her at all. It's you that I love."Having been together for three years, Justin was always convinced that my love for him would last forever.I tried to break free from his grip, but this time he held on tightly. My dad intervened, pulling me behind him and slapping Justin."You disgusting bastard! If you dare come near my daughter again, I'll break your legs!" my dad berated Justine angrily before dragging me aw

    Justin's eyes lit up."Stella, really? Do you remember me?" He rushed over, gripping my shoulders excitedly, his eyes red with emotion.On the other side, Raleigh, upon hearing this, lowered the tablet and stared at the photos of us, his gaze dimming.It was all just a dream.He would eventually wake up from it."Do you recall that I'm your boyfriend?" Justin noticed my silence and intensified the pressure of his hands on my shoulders, urgency creeping into his voice."I remember," I said with a cold laugh.Justin was so excited upon hearing this that he wanted to hug me, but I raised my hand and blocked him."I remember I only agreed to be your girlfriend after you pursued me for three years. I remember how emotional you were when I finally agreed, and I remember your promise of a lifetime together. All of that is still vivid in my memory," I said, tears welling up in my eyes."But do you remember any of these?" I asked Justin.Justin was at a loss for words."You mentioned buying me

    "Mr. Reed, looking at Miss Wright's condition, you might need to spend more time with her, and take her to places you've been before. It might help her remember you," the doctor said."You’re useless! And to think you call yourself the best neurologist in the country. If Stella can't remember me, you can forget about keeping your reputation!" Justin shoved the doctor aside, scolded him, and then left.However, before Justin could put his plan into action, his father found the villa where he and Jasmine were living.Justin was holding Jasmine, drowning his sorrows in alcohol. When he saw his father, he stood up in fright, trembling as he spoke, "Dad, how did you..."Slap—Austin Reed had slapped Justin so hard that it rendered Justin speechless."I was wondering why Stella resigned to go to the Landon Group. It turns out you are having an affair! You bastard! Are you trying to ruin me?! Do you have any idea how important Stella is to our company!" Austin seethed with rage, his whole bod
