Judy previously blurted out a lie about having a fiancé, which ironically led to her promotion. Worried about being exposed and possibly fired by Lewis, she continued to fabricate stories.However, after speaking, the atmosphere in the car seemed to grow colder, and Lewis's expression changed. Had she said something wrong? Concerned about the company's preference against newly hired employees getting married or having children, Judy quickly added, “President, don't worry, I have no plans to marry before I'm thirty. I want to focus on my career first, working hard under your guidance to grow and strengthen Caler Group.”At her words about making the company stronger, Lewis's lips twitched slightly, and he glanced at her, “So, Caler Group isn’t strong enough now?”Judy nervously laughed, “President, Caler Group is already a top-tier conglomerate. With you at the helm, the company’s future is boundless.”Internally, Judy was frustrated by Lewis's sarcastic tone. Seeing her flattering dem
Judy was really honest, she didn't lie about what she had just said. She had in fact slept with Lewis last time. Lewis had never thought that his little secretary would be so bold, she really dared to say anything. He suddenly wanted to see what Judy would be like when she was drunk. "Drink." Lewis placed the wine in front of her, "If anything happens, I will take responsibility." Judy: "..." Could he not be so bold? Lewis, you are a man with a girlfriend, if anything happened due to drinking, she would not be able to take responsibility. Judy was about to refuse, but one look from Lewis made her immediately put on a smile: "Thank you for the wine." One had to bow their head under the eaves. She relied on her boss for her salary, so whether it was drinking wine or even urine... no, she could not drink urine, better stick to wine. Judy took it with both hands, her insincere appearance making Lewis feel irritated. He greatly desired to
Judy's heart tightened, and she asked cautiously, "What... did I say?"After waking up, Judy didn't put on her glasses, and her disheveled hair added a touch of wild beauty. Her delicate features, porcelain skin, and bright eyes were highlighted by the morning sunlight streaming through the window, creating an ethereal glow around her.It was then that Lewis realized, the Judy before him was a stark contrast to her ordinarily unremarkable appearance.Her skin was very fair, with a rosy tint beneath its whiteness, and her loose pink pajamas made her cheeks look even more like blooming peach blossoms.Could it be that his secretary was actually a beauty?"President?"Noticing Lewis staring at her, an uneasy Judy called out to him.Lewis, returning to his senses and realizing his lapse, quickly composed himself and said with a cool demeanor, "Just teasing, you don't need to wear your glasses anymore. And that fringe of yours, there's no need to keep it either; it's quite outmoded. You lo
On the way back to the company, Judy tried to minimize her presence and sat at the very back of the car.After all, she had had too much to drink and was experiencing some memory loss; Lewis decided not to interrogate her about it, and she played along as if she was unaware.Upon arrival at the company, Lewis went directly to the CEO's office to receive an important report from Leo, while Judy took the opportunity to slip back to the secretarial department."Judy, did you get a new haircut?" Linda was surprised, "You look really good like this, your face shape isn't suited for bangs, so without them, you look very attractive.""Thank you," Judy replied, a bit embarrassed.Since Lewis hadn't assigned her any tasks today and she hadn't been called to the CEO's office, Judy took it for granted to work in the secretarial department.On a typical day without specific tasks, Judy wouldn't have to go to the CEO's office, as Leo was Lewis's right-hand man.Today was August 20th, and Judy pers
Three of them gathered for a meal at their old spot, "Delightful Bites."Judy loves the spaghetti here.John arrived first, still the same private room.When Judy arrived, she headed straight for the private room and relaxed once inside: "I can finally have a good meal today. You have no idea, since I became a regular employee, this is the first day I’ve been able to get off an early shift."John said with a smile: "Then, have a good meal today, which department are you working in now? Is the workload heavy, can you cope?""The Secretarial Department." Judy replied: "It’s not too busy as long as I don't have to entertain superiors with social outings. Has Susan mentioned when she will arrive?""She should be here soon." John thoughtfully poured Judy some tea and asked, "What’s going on with you two? You had me make all the calls, didn't you talk to her yourself, did you have a falling out?""Not really." Judy propped her chin with her hand and said, "Ever since Susan got a boyfriend,
Susan nervously inspected her bag. Such limited-edition designer bag could lose much of their value with just a slight imperfection.Unfamiliar with the proper care and maintenance of luxury handbags, Susan attempted to clean it with a tissue, only making it dirtier."You owe me a new bag," Susan, on the verge of madness, relentlessly berated the waiter. "You've dirtied my bag, a gift from my boyfriend, worth 80,000 dollars! An LV brand, see?"Susan kept stressing the price of the bag.In view of her attitude, the waiter shot back, "I don't recognize any LV. Who would bring such an expensive bag to eat here? It's obvious your bag is a fake. Are you trying to swindle me? Was your boyfriend blind to fancy someone like you, with your looks and still climbing the social ladder?"Those words hit Susan where it hurt the most."Who says it's fake? It's real," Susan argued fiercely, clinging to the waiter. "You will pay for my bag. Call your manager over here!"Judy hastily interjected, "Susa
John drove the car, worried about Susan's change in behavior, Judy and John decided to follow and check on her. They had just left the restaurant and paid the bill when Judy saw Susan getting into a luxury car. It was the chauffeur from Royal Estate, now exclusively assigned to pick up and drop off Susan."Hurry, Judy," John called as he drove up.Judy opened the car door and got in: "Follow that black Mercedes ahead."John pressed the accelerator and quickly followed: "That Mercedes is worth over half a million dollars. Susan really found a rich boyfriend. But why is she hiding him from us? Is she afraid we'll see him? Afraid we'll ask to borrow money?"People who strike it rich often distance themselves from family and friends, fearing they'll be asked for loans."Who knows what she's thinking," muttered Judy. "Stay on it and don't lose them. Once we see this mysterious boyfriend, we'll know what's going on."John followed Susan's car as they gradually left the city center and drove
John didn't get a chance to finish his thoughts as Judy greeted him and told him to head home early before getting in the car with her driver, Xiao Zhang. The drive up to the mountains took only about ten minutes....After arriving back at the house full of rage and venting her anger on the servants, Susan learned that Lewis had returned. She quickly changed into a sleepwear that was both sexy and innocent looking and sprayed on perfume. Knowing that Lewis had gone to his study, Susan deliberately washed some fruit and brought it to the study."Lewis," Susan entered with a flushed face and a gentle voice, "I washed some fruit for you. Have some, don't work too hard.""Just put it there," Lewis said without lifting his gaze from the document in his hands and not glancing at Susan.Feeling awkward, Susan stood still. Leo took the fruit from her hands, "Miss, the President is busy with work, why don't you go back to your room and rest?"Susan, glowing with the intent of her sexy attire,
Serina subconsciously glanced at Lewis, who was standing in front of Judy's tombstone. Could it be for him?During these days, Lewis had been very quiet, and his daily routine was to perform the funeral rites for Judy and accompany her on her final journey.He no longer shed tears, but he also had no smile, as if he were just an empty shell.People lined up to offer flowers in their hands, stood in silence in front of Judy's grave for a few seconds, and then walked away, one after another. The funeral lasted until 10 o'clock in the morning.Lewis unexpectedly spoke, addressing his grandmother, "Grandma, let everyone go back. I'll stay here a little longer to keep Judy company."He hadn't spoken for a long time, and when Lewis finally did, his voice was extremely hoarse, and it had changed a bit.The grandmother's eyes were moist, and she nodded in agreement, asking Antonio to see the relatives and friends off.People gradually left, and in the end, only a few people, including Serena,
The helicopter arrived in Birmingham and landed in the backyard of Lewis's villa, where Lewis disembarked carrying the urn."Judy, we're home," he whispered softly, his tone gentle.The others also got off the helicopter, and Antonio, who had already received the news, had prepared a memorial hall at home.After a year, Judy finally returned, but in such a manner.Antonio was waiting at home, and it was only when he saw Lewis holding the urn and getting off the helicopter that he truly believed Judy had passed away, and what Isabella had said on the phone was true.Soon after,The news of Judy's death spread, shocking everyone. How could someone who was fine before suddenly pass away?In the eyes of outsiders, Judy was a person who had survived a shipwreck.Steven also received the news and quickly went to Lewis's house.A memorial hall was set up, with a coffin placed in the hall, and Judy's urn was placed inside the coffin.Lewis invited high monks to perform a funeral service for J
As Hannah said, even if it was a heart-wrenching pain, Lewis would still want to listen. He wanted to know what Judy experienced before her death.Hannah continued, "Judy was afraid of dying because she couldn't bear to leave you and Angel, but we did our best, and the doctors were helpless. She didn't want to die in the hospital; it seemed she was very averse to hospitals. After the doctor said there was no hope, she asked us to take her away, so I took her home, and she passed away in the attic room...""At that time, I promised her to fulfill her last wishes. She couldn't let go of you and Angel, so I went to your side, impersonated Judy, and took care of you and Angel in her place. But I couldn't do it, and in the end, I chose to make you dislike me, to give up on the marriage voluntarily."Hannah paused for a moment and gave a bitter smile, "Judy died when you loved her the most. You will never be able to let go of her for the rest of your life. Judy thought that if you didn't lo
Hannah was worried and wanted to find Lewis.She called the grandmother and only then learned that Lewis was hospitalized in the hospital next door.Taking advantage of the fact that neither Kim nor Guy were in the hospital, Hannah removed the IV needle from the back of her hand and was about to sneak out.However, just as she stepped out of the room, Kim returned from outside: "Sister, where are you going?""I..." Hannah stammered.Kim immediately guessed: "You want to find Lewis? I forbid you to go. You just had surgery. What are you going to do looking for Lewis? He already knows you're not Judy. If he gets angry and hurts you, what then?"Hannah said, "But I can't hide either. Lewis is ill, and everything is because of me. I should go. I owe it to Judy.""You don't owe anyone anything. Judy couldn't have been saved anyway. Even if you hadn't used Judy's heart, someone else would have," Kim said, "Anyway, I won't let you go.""Kim, why are you so heartless?" Hannah got angry, "Judy
Many children nowadays actually understand that the dead are buried beneath the graves.Angel opened her big eyes, which were clear and naive.Such a look, who wouldn't feel heartache upon seeing it?Lewis forced himself to sit up, leaning against the tombstone, his hand stroking it, not knowing how to explain to his daughter.Angel looked at Louis again, "Who is underneath this?"Louis really didn't know how to answer. He glanced at Lewis.Angel's gaze then shifted to Avery, wanting an answer from him.But no one had the heart to tell Angel such a cruel answer.Just when everyone found it hard to speak, Angel reached out her small hand to touch the tombstone and asked softly, "Is my mother buried here?"Angel's words shocked the three of them. How did Angel know?Could it be that there is truly a mother-daughter connection?Seeing that the adults were all silent, Angel suddenly burst into tears, "Mommy, it's mommy, I want my mommy."Angel cried her heart out, and Lewis held his daugh
When a person is at their most helpless and desperate, they hope for miracles, they wish for time to go back.The rain continued to fall, and the temperature at night was very low, so cold that it made people shiver.Lewis lay on the grave like a walking corpse, devoid of any vitality.Louis walked over with an umbrella and held it above his head: "Boss, don't do this. If Judy sees you like this from heaven, she will be upset."Lewis's eyes were open, but it was as if he couldn't see or hear anything. He didn't care about anything or listen to anyone. He just wanted to be closer to Judy by staying close to the grave.God couldn't hear his hysterical cries or see his heart-wrenching pain."Boss," Louis crouched down and persuaded him, "The rain is getting heavier, let's go back first."Lewis's eyes slightly shifted, finally finding a focal point: "Judy is afraid of the cold and the dark. I can't leave her alone here. I need to accompany her.""Boss, I know you're in a lot of pain, but
Isabella's face showed sadness, "Lewis definitely can't handle it. How can a person endure the loss of their loved one twice?"Isn't that like rubbing salt into a wound?"If he can get through this, then we won't have to worry in the future. But if he can't..." The grandmother didn't finish her sentence.Everyone knew the implications of what could happen....Cemetery.The dimly lit cemetery was quite eerie, and someone with a timid nature would probably be terrified to visit.The weather changed abruptly, and a light drizzle began to fall.Lewis, with Judy on his mind, stumbled towards Judy's tombstone after getting out of the car.There were only a few lamps in the cemetery, and one of them happened to be pointing in the direction of Judy's tombstone, making it easy for Lewis to find it at once."Judy, Judy!"Lewis was too eager and overwhelmed with grief. When he saw Judy's tombstone, the sorrow in his heart surged like a floodgate being opened, pouring out. He was walking too qui
The grandmother sighed, "Lewis found out about Judy's passing and couldn't bear the blow.""Lewis knows?" Serina was astonished, "And you all knew too?"Louis was surprised, "Serina, you knew about it early on?"Serina was among the first to know."Yes, Hannah told me before," Serina said, "I was worried that Lewis wouldn't be able to handle it, so I didn't dare to tell him. How did he find out?""Paper can't wrap up fire," Louis said, "Once Hannah fell and was hospitalized, it was impossible to keep it a secret.""Then when Lewis went out just now..." Serina immediately became worried, "What if something happens to him, or he gets the wrong idea?"Avery said, "He probably went to the cemetery to see Judy."The grandmother quickly said, "Louis, go to the cemetery right away and keep an eye on him. Don't let him do anything foolish.""Okay, grandma, don't worry, I'll go there now," Louis assured her.Louis and Avery went together.Serina took the grandmother back to the hotel first, wh
Lewis was emotionally out of control, looking at Hannah's face, he wished he could peel off her skin.That was the face of his wife.He wished he could dig out her heart, for it belonged to his wife.Hannah was unworthy, unworthy of possessing everything that belonged to Judy.If it weren't for this heart, how could he have been deceived and confused, mistaking Hannah for his wife? All the familiarity that Hannah gave him was because of this heart.Angel recognized Hannah as her mother, and that was also because of this heart.In Lewis's eyes, Hannah was the murderer, one of those responsible for Judy's death.Hannah did not defend herself; she knew that Lewis was in a state of rage and would not listen to anything.No one could accept such a thing.Lewis wanted to strangle Hannah, but looking at that face, he couldn't bring himself to do it; it was no different from killing Judy himself.The people outside the room couldn't see what was happening inside, but they could hear it.Reali
