"You've got to be kidding me." Caraline rolled her eyes, got up from her seat, and walked out of the theater at a brisk pace."Do you have anything to do tonight?" asked Diego who was already beside Caraline, "I have a great place to go."Caraline let out a long breath, pausing to tuck her hair behind her ear. She had an appointment with Deric for a movie tonight, and she had been looking forward to it for a long time. "I... already have an agenda for tonight.""What... are you going to spend time with a guy?" Diego probed.Caraline continued walking until she was once again jostling with people in the shopping center. Her head was suddenly spinning at the sight of the crowd everywhere."Are you okay, Caraline?" asked Diego with a worried look."I didn't know you were such a chatty guy," Caraline replied."I wouldn't be if I didn't care." Diego laughed softly. "I'll take you to the hospital to get you checked out.""You're overreacting. I just have a headache from seeing too many peop

Although Caraline's face and words seemed harsh, in reality, the woman followed Deric's request to close her eyes. Although it was too soon, she was ready to receive a kiss from the man. Her heart was jumping up and down as her face heated up. Unconsciously, Caraline leaned forward slightly, bringing her lips forward a few inches. God, this is nerve-wracking, she thought.Deric smiled slightly, tucked Caraline's hair behind her ear, and blew lightly on her forehead for the next few seconds.Caraline, on the other hand, suddenly froze as soon as the gentle breeze touched her skin. A strong tremor instantly traveled through her body. Caraline was tense to death but desperately hoped that her wish would come true. She didn't mind that after Deric kissed her she would faint.Deric gently stroked Caraline's forehead. "This wound will soon disappear."Caraline was lulled by Deric's treatment. However, she felt that the man in front of her was not doing what she wanted. That's why Caraline d

Caraline could only stand on the veranda with her mouth agape. The dress she was wearing was left splashing in the rain. When her eyes momentarily closed, she took a few steps back. Even so, the shock still refused to leave.Caraline let out a long breath. Her gaze was fixed on the falling rain. Several lightning bolts could be seen, accompanied by the deafening sound of thunder."What the hell is going on!" said Caraline, her voice rising at the end of her sentence. She eyed her wet appearance in the front. How annoying. Why did the rain come at a time she had been waiting for so long?Caraline clucked in annoyance. Her jaw tightened as her hands clenched into tight fists. The image of her being with Deric was instantly shattered by the rain, even though she had been waiting for this night for several days. There was also no way she could brave the rain to get to the promised place.Caraline retreated again as the wind carried the raindrops deeper into the veranda. The flash of light

Caraline got out as soon as the wheelchair pulled up on the porch. Unexpectedly, Deric also took shelter on the porch. Occasionally the woman glanced at Deric, then observed her appearance which was wet in several parts. It was annoying, the rain had again thwarted her moment of togetherness with the man."This rain sucks," Caraline said as she glanced at Deric She threw her jacket at the man in an animated manner. "Especially when I'm stuck with a guy like you.""You know, rain is one of the signs that God loves us," Deric said without turning to Caraline. He opened his right hand to collect the rainwater. "With every drop, an angel is guarding it."Caraline rolled her eyes, shifting her body slightly to get closer to Deric. The air outside was getting colder at the moment, but she didn't want to enter the house just yet. Being alone with Deric at a time like this was a rare moment. Of course, she did not want to waste it. Being stuck for a few hours was something she could do."Rain

"I guess being honest doesn't always hurt," Deric said."What do you mean?" Caraline scrunched up her waist. Deric seemed to be insinuating."Forget it."Caraline clucked and started to open the door. She walked into the house first. Deric followed close behind."We can watch in this room." Caraline led Deric to the family room. There was a large TV and an array of movie-watching equipment. She rarely spent time here. She would go straight to her room when she came home. After all, what family would she bring to this place?"This is a nice place," Deric said as he surveyed the surroundings."I-I'll go change first." Caraline left the room, glancing at Deric to see if he had turned to her or not. She had to be disappointed as the man's attention was still on the viewing room.Caraline entered the room with an exasperated face. The woman sneered at Deric as she changed her clothes. Her body was wrapped in dark red sleeping pajamas. She deliberately wore clothes that were a bit revealing

Caraline held her breath for a moment, quickly closing her eyes because she didn't want to see the show on TV. It was annoying, why did her time with Deric have to be spent watching horror movies?"Oh my." Caraline hurriedly released her grip on Deric's waist, then scooted to the end of the chair. She was so scared and surprised that she accidentally hugged Deric. It was embarrassing, but she liked it."Why do we have to watch a shitty movie like this?" Caraline covered her face with a pillow. She peeked at the TV for a moment, then turned to Deric."Are you afraid of horror movies?" asked Deric without looking at the TV screen, "I can change it if you want."Caraline snorted in annoyance. Deric seemed to be insinuating. "I-I'm... not scared. It's just that I thought we could watch another movie."Deric turned his head with a chuckle. "You must be scared.""Stop it. You're making the atmosphere even creepier.""Let me guess, you must like comedy genre movies?" snapped Deric."Don't ta

To make her plan a success, the first thing Caraline did was move her bottles to the center of the table. After that, she pretended to drink her chocolate milk until it was the same as Deric's. The next step was to exchange the man's drink for hers. However, she had to put the bottles together first. That way, Deric wouldn't suspect that the drinks were switched.Caraline let out a long breath as her plan succeeded. A smile spread across her lips. In the dimly lit room, her face seemed to glow with happiness mixed with tension. "This way Deric and I will be kissing each other indirectly," she murmured."Did you enjoy the movie?" asked Deric as he turned his head."Of course," Caraline replied. She quickly grabbed a pillow, covering half of her face. However, when she looked at the screen, a scary-looking creature with blood flowing suddenly appeared. She was so frightened that she hugged Deric again.Caraline pretended to be closed during the hug. She deliberately hugged Deric quite s

Luck was on Caraline's side as Deric was back in his original position. She could get back into the action. Caraline couldn't afford to be so reckless that she lost focus. When she was about to hug the man, she had to make sure that Deric was in position.Caraline couldn't help but watch the movie again. Even though she had reached half of the story, she didn't understand the story at all. She was only focused on finding a moment to hug Deric, and that was even more difficult after what happened earlier. Time crawled quickly. The movie was boring. Eventually, Caraline began to feel sleepy. She yawned a few times, leaning her back against the back of the chair. Her eyes felt heavy until she finally fell asleep.Caraline's face landed on Deric's shoulder. Her arms reflexively embraced the man's body. The corners of her lips lifted perfectly. It felt so good that words could not describe it. This was the first time she had ever done something like this with a man.Caraline woke up a few

Jeremy, Jonathan, and James looked tense as they followed a bodyguard to the edge of the park. The crashing of the waves was a musical accompaniment to their racing hearts. The three men suddenly fell silent when they saw Deric with his back to them near the fence. Shortly afterward, the bodyguard chose to excuse himself. For a few seconds, there was only silence between the four men. Jeremy, Jonathan, and James exchanged glances with each other, confused as to what action they should take at this point. Should they say goodbye? Deric slowly turned around, smiling to greet his three half-brothers. He walked over, but Jeremy, Jonathan, and James did not move from their places or even turn their heads towards him. "I've been waiting for your arrival," Deric said. Jeremy, Jonathan, and James had not paid any attention to Deric's words. Their faces had not completely lifted either. "Didn't you miss me a lot, James?" asked Deric, "you even called me and sent me messages almost every da

All eyes were on Deric who had just recognized himself as the presiden of the number one company in the country. The atmosphere of the event was instantly silent, as were the people watching the news on television channels and the internet. Shortly afterward, the adoring admiration was met with thunderous applause."Oh my," said Helen, "isn't that Mr. Deric? How could this be possible? He can walk on both feet and right now he's in front of us."Helen turned to Caraline who was looking down with a smile on her face. When she realized something, Helen quickly controlled herself. She knew the reason behind Caraline's change over the past two weeks."Miss Caraline," Helen called with a bright smile.

A week passed after Caraline met with Deric on the rooftop of the building. However, her happy smile never faded. Helen, Stevan, and the rest of the maids and guards couldn't understand her attitude.

Many famous officials and businessmen attended the event, including Henry Hulbert.Caraline couldn't sit still while watching Henry Hulbert perform on stage. Her eyes were often drawn to the surroundings. There was a good chance that Deric was also at this event, she thought.Caraline hadn't received any messages from Deric all week. She also deliberately did not contact him. If longing had been excruciating in the past, this longing had only intensified the love."Do you need something?" asked Helen, who was sitting next to Caraline's chair."Nothing." Caraline shook her head, turni

Caraline and Deric looked at each other for some time, lost in their feelings. The lights around the rooftop seemed to change color as time passed."I'm just afraid that you'll lose consciousness like last time," Deric said suddenly."What do you mean?" asked Caraline with flushed cheeks."You know, you suddenly passed out when we were about to do... 'it' in your room." Deric laughed, gently stroking Caraline's hair."Passed out?" Caraline raised one eyebrow. "Didn't we ever do that?""Not at all," Deric said, "you seemed to be so nervous that you passed out, especially since you didn't stop smiling during your sleep."Caraline suddenly turned her back on Deric, closing her eyes with a very red face. She was embarrassed when she heard that. So, all this time she had only dreamed about doing 'that' with Deric. "Don't talk to me anymore. I hate you.""I know if your heart says otherwise." Deric stood beside Caraline."No, I'm serious." Caraline turned her gaze to the other side. "You ar

Caraline's whole body shook even more when she saw Deric standing in front of her. She dropped her cell phone because she couldn't contain her shock. For a few moments, she could only hold her breath with an unblinking gaze.Caraline felt shocked on top of the shock. She had wanted Deric to walk again, but when she saw it firsthand, Caraline was left stunned and unable to do anything. Her lips half opened, but quickly closed again.Didn't Deric look perfect with his current appearance?Caraline pinched her left arm hard. She felt a great pain there. It signaled that she was in the real world. However, Caraline still felt lost in dreamland. Deric, who she thought was a man who had lost his dreams, was the mysterious figure that people wanted to know about. Deric was none other than the richest man in the country.Doesn't Deric look perfect in his current position?Caraline looked back as her feet hit the rooftop barrier. She was at the edge of the room and there was no turning back. Fo

"Deric."Caraline could only remain silent with wide-rounded eyes for some time. Her mouth was half open with a look of disbelief. All the images of her time with Deric instantly faded away, making her body almost collapse on the floor. Tears were rolling down her cheeks relentlessly.Caraline knew that she missed Deric more than anything. However, when he was in front of her right now, she could only stand still without being able to get closer or even hug him tightly.Time seemed to stop for Caraline. All the scenery around her suddenly turned black and white, except for Deric alone. At the same time, the world became eerily silent.Could this all be a delusion?Could it be that he was in a dream?Could it be that God had answered all her prayers and hopes?Caraline still couldn't quite believe what was happening.
