Lorena POVThis breakfast doesn't make me feel satisfied no matter how I think about it. Seth's attitude clearly shows that he doesn't want me to interact with him and his family. Could he be afraid that my interaction with them will affect his family's social status? After the meal, I went back upstairs and couldn't help but call Shana."Shana, are you free today?""I'm free, I don't have classes today. What's up? Why are you calling all of a sudden?""I'm feeling annoyed. If you're free, let's go out for a meal. It's been a long time since I last saw you."There was a few seconds of silence on the other end, then Shana spoke up: "Alright, I'll greet Ronald and come pick you up."I find Shana's obedient manner quite interesting and couldn't help but tease her, "I didn't expect Ronald to be quite capable. He actually managed to make you completely devoted to him.""What nonsense are you talking about? If you keep talking nonsense, you can walk from Rodriguez's suburban villa to the ci
Seth POVI had an empty seat next to me, and Shawn walked over and was about to sit down when Wesley pushed him, saying, "Sit over here with me."Shawn seemed to be momentarily stunned, and it wasn't until Wesley said, "Lorena, why don't you sit next to Seth?" that he reacted."No need," Lorena glanced at me and shook her head, "I won't disturb him and Miss Barlow."With that sentence, everyone in the room turned to look at me. It was obvious that Lorena's words were directed at me, which made me quite angry. "Lorena, what are you implying?"Nola and I were sitting peacefully, minding our own business, and Lorena suddenly said something like that, clearly with ulterior motives.Lorena put on an innocent look, "No, really, I just think you two are a good match. I don't want to intrude.""You're being sarcastic, aren't you?" I raised my chin slightly, my tone icy."Wrongfully accused," Lorena raised her hand, "I swear to God, I'm speaking from the heart. We have no emotional foundation,
Lorena POVI sat in the passenger seat of the Mercedes, absentmindedly gripping the seat belt strap. I watched as Shana stood outside the car and exchanged a few words with Erik, their expressions filled with subtle emotions. After bidding farewell, Shana returned to the car."What's wrong?" I casually asked, thinking that since they were now a family, there shouldn't be any major issues."It's nothing. I've met him a few times before, we just had a casual chat," Shana replied as she started the car and looked at the road, preparing to drive away. "But what about you? What happened during the meal today?""What do you mean?" I asked."Are you asking me? Did something happen between you and Seth? Both of you seemed distracted, and there was this tense atmosphere in the air.""Really? I don't think I said anything, and besides, it's good that he's getting back together with his ex, isn't it?" I said, looking out the window, feeling a mix of emotions."I understand that the dynamics of a
Seth POVAs I looked at the girl in front of me, she stared straight at me with a gaze filled with determination and frustration. There was a hint of blood at the corner of her mouth, and I realized that I had gone too far in my anger, and it was too late to take it back now.She took a deep breath and quickly calmed her emotions, then looked at me seriously and said, "Seth Rodriguez, I didn't do anything to hurt Luna. You can choose not to believe me, but I hope you have evidence of me actually doing such things before accusing me."I was speechless for a moment, and could only watch her leave decisively. Ruby seemed to be persistent, saying, "We will eventually catch her and bring her to justice." I looked deeply at Ruby, feeling somewhat surprised by her harshness.For the rest of the night, I stayed at the hospital until the next morning when my mother slowly woke up."Mom, are you hungry? Do you want something to eat?" Ruby happened to arrive at the hospital and helped her up att
Lorena POV"Seth, if you have something to discuss with me, just come to me. Don't involve my family," My voice is so hoarse that it didn't sounded like mine,but I didn't want to step back.Seth paused for a second, he stared at me, "I didn't intend to involve you all. My mom woke up this morning and told us that we wrongly accused you of what happened last night.""Thank you for your kindness, but I cannot and will not accept it." I heard Seth say that he brought something to my house, but politely refused, "Please don't disturb my family anymore. I don't want to come back to your house. Let's maintain our current level of contact. If you ever want to reject me, just contact me.""Lorena, what are you saying? I have already apologized," Seth's tone was low and helpless, "Or tell me what you want me to do. Just say it, and I'll do as you say.""No need, your family has their own affairs to take care of, I don't need you to do anything for me. Besides, I did make a mistake in this matt
Lorena POVI rushed into the hotel and quickly found an elevator. After pressing the 50th floor, it only took a few minutes to arrive.As soon as I stepped out, I was amazed by the magnificent decoration in the corridor. It felt like a private club, as luxurious as a palace, with the grand doors wide open. Inside, everything was exquisite and luxurious, as if hosting a party. The people attending the party were all young, dressed in either luxurious designer dresses frequently seen in magazines or personalized ones.When I walked in, no one even noticed me. Everyone was gathered around the central bar, seemingly excited and shouting "Take it down, take it down."Feeling uneasy, I squeezed my way through and tiptoed to take a look. And then I froze.Jill was surrounded in the center, looking disheveled and red-faced, holding a small cup. There were men pushing her from the side, causing her to stumble and almost lose her balance."Drink it, drink it quickly, or bark like a dog if you d
Seth POVI was sitting in a private room at the bar, feeling down, on the sofa. I had a cigarette between my slender fingertips and my long legs crossed together, giving off an air of elegance and nobility.The waitress who was pouring drinks couldn't help but glance at me several times, her cheeks blushing shyly."Don't look, my brother is taken," Shawn joked, "but you can consider me, although I'm not as handsome as him, but I am rich.""And stupid," Wesley added."Get lost," Shawn cursed."Oh, you dare to curse at me," Wesley threatened, grabbing Shawn's collar."I was just kidding," Shawn quickly surrendered.The waitress looked at us, and I ignored the two fools fighting next to me, smiling at her and nodding to indicate that she could leave. She then smiled and moved to the side."So noisy," I impatiently glared at the two brothers.Erik laughed and said, "Seth, that little girl moved out. You should be happy, since you don't like her anyway."I furrowed my brows.Yes, I should
Seth POVAfter a forty-minute drive, we arrived at the hotel. As soon as we got out of the car, I noticed another familiar vehicle parked nearby. Shawn hurriedly got out of the car and walked towards me."Let's go," I said, taking a step forward. Shawn quickly followed.Just as the two of us stepped out of the elevator, we were greeted by a chaotic scene. A group of young men and women formed a circle in the lobby, with Lorena at the center.As Shawn and I entered, a woman with cream all over her hair and face limped towards Shawn."Shawn, you have to avenge me," she cried.Shawn was taken aback. "Are you Wilona?"Wilona hysterically sobbed, "I was attacked. That woman used a cake to smash my face. My face and leg are injured. You must avenge me. I want to make her suffer, be exiled, and become a rogue.""Alright, I will definitely avenge you," Shawn said, feeling heartbroken seeing his sister in such a state. "Who attacked my sister?""It was her," Wilona angrily pointed at a girl st
