"But what they didn't know was that a second before boarding the plane, Nicholas' private jet had already arrived at London's airport; in the end, he couldn't resist coming here in person. However, their destinies were quite superficial, and they got lost in the airport.5-star hotel, presidential suite.Luna stood in front of Nicholas with her head down, a guilty look on her face, and reported to him about the situation in which she met Robert today."CEO, I've already hired some private detectives to investigate Clarice's whereabouts. I believe that, as long as she's still in London, we will soon know the truth.""Do you really think she's still in London?" Nicholas' face turned pale. He thought he would definitely be able to catch that damn woman this time, but he didn't expect her to escape so easily."What do you mean? Has she already left? But that's not right; I just saw Robert this morning. There's no reason for Clarice to leave London alone, and besides, she's not familiar wi
"I think you misunderstood; I don't lack money either. My family is also very wealthy." The girl ran her hand over the necklace and shook her head, and Agner, upon hearing this, shivered, as besides money, she didn't know what else could persuade her to save her. "However, your necklace is very beautiful. Alright, I reluctantly agree, but I have to tell my brother about this, and before I forget, my name is Mei!" said the girl, extending her hand."Mary, thank you." Mary shook her hand, and they finally established a friendship.After the two girls got to know each other, they started talking. Although Mary grew up in the United States, so her European accent wasn't very good, since she studied in Europe for a few years, her British English was fluent. As they chatted, time flew by, and not long after, someone brought breakfast for them, a plate of something that looked very unappetizing."Since when did two young ladies eat something like this?" Everyone expressed their disdain.Howe
Four years later...The city of Los Angeles was in a frenzy, neon lights illuminated everything, making the hearts of its residents beat faster. She felt her heart racing like never before, after so much time, she had to come back. After an unknown period of time, her body suddenly stopped, and she let out a long sigh; her teary eyes opened slowly, landing on the face of the man just ahead. However, she quickly passed by him, trying not to be noticed, which failed miserably as she accidentally bumped into him with her bag. Without time to apologize, she hurriedly continued on. The man bent down to pick up the bag, and without thinking, he opened it to find, aside from a pink gloss and a cellphone, only a delicate wallet remained. He knew the bag had been left behind, so he quickly opened the wallet. Inside were some bank cards and some money. On the other hand, there was an ID card in the middle of the wallet, and upon seeing the ID, he knew this woman wouldn't escape. At that moment,
"I came back early because I'm afraid my baby will miss mommy and won't be able to sleep at night without me." The woman smiled as she approached the bed, then picked up the boy from the bed and was about to kiss him."Mom, please! Didn't I tell you before that I don't want you to kiss me anymore! I'm dirty!""Oh, so that's how it is. Well, you should kiss mommy; mommy won't be idle just because you're dirty." Clarice tilted her head slightly upon hearing this and moved her face closer, asking in anticipation.Seeing this, the little boy could only symbolically kiss her on the cheek. After that, Clarice turned her face to the side and said, "Here, here..." The young boy was speechless. He kissed her on the other cheek again before pulling his head back.The boy couldn't stay calm anymore. He pushed her face away with a disdainful look and said seriously, "I told you to find a boyfriend or a husband or something, so why don't you go find him and kiss him? How am I going to date my girl
"This will take time. Did you try calling her before? If we can, maybe we can figure out where she is through some of her phone numbers." Luna thought about it and then carefully hinted."This could be considered a chance to earn merits." After Nicholas heard that, he casually opened a drawer to the left of the desk and took out a white phone that was lying silently. He tossed it in front of Luna and said."Yes, I understand. Please don't worry, CEO." Luna received the phone carefully and said with a face full of assurance."Also, don't damage this phone. Don't delete anything on it." Nicholas lowered his head to think for a moment before adding."Okay then, CEO, if there are no other requests, I'll leave first." Luna felt that the white phone in her hand had suddenly become much heavier, making her have no choice but to hold it carefully."Go." Nicholas waved his numb hand, and his expression seemed to have sunk into deep thoughts.Seven days later."All I have is hope!" If she faile
Three days later, Clarice left again. She was nervous, not just worried that Nicholas might find her, but also concerned that she would return empty-handed."Mom, are you traveling again?" Bryan asked, staring at Clarice with curiosity."Yes, baby. Mommy is searching for a medicine for you, and once I find it, this medicine will be able to cure your illness. So, stay here and obey the nurses and the doctor!" Clarice tenderly caressed Bryan's head."Don't worry, Mom. Besides, there's a new nurse at the hospital, and she's so pretty and not attached, so don't worry about me." As he spoke, his chubby little hands waved goodbye. "Go and come back soon, Mom. If you find a good man like me, bring him home early for me to take a look.""Ugh…" Clarice looked at her son, and the corners of her mouth twitched as she wondered, could this guy really be Nicholas or her son?After a few hours of flying, Clarice stayed at a five-star hotel in Los Angeles. She lay on the bed, contemplating how to fin
Villares Hotel was a five-star establishment and also boasted the most luxurious restaurant in the entire city. It was common knowledge that during the early stages of construction, they were prepared to declare themselves a six-star hotel, but for some unknown reason, they were ultimately assessed as a five-star property. Nevertheless, it remained the best hotel in the city, with no other six-star options. As a hotel magnate, L Empire had always eyed Villares Hotel covetously. Nicholas had considered buying the hotel, but later, L Empire adjusted its strategy and expanded its hotel market overseas. In recent years, they invested abroad and didn't turn their attention back to this city.Since Villares Hotel had no connection with L Empire, Clarice wasn't overly concerned when she came here. At least here, she didn't need to worry about anyone recognizing her.After Villares Hotel booked a room on the same floor as the presidential suite, she was escorted by a porter to the elevator an
"It seemed he wouldn't come today," she thought as she let out a long sigh and got up to leave the bed. However, just as she was about to leave, she suddenly heard the sound of a key card being swiped at the door. Startled by the noise, she immediately turned off the lights in the room that had just been turned on. When Nicholas reached the presidential suite, he saw that the hallway was empty. On the table, there was a bottle of old wine and two wine glasses. One of the glasses was clean and clear, as if someone had used it before. The door to the adjacent room was securely closed. The red wine had already been opened and was still awake. He picked up the wine glass and poured himself half a small cup to taste. As he arrived forty minutes later than expected, the red wine seemed to have awakened a bit too early. After taking a small sip, he placed the wine glass down with some regret. He had no intention of continuing to drink this wine that was no longer the best to taste.In the ro
