Terry arched his eyebrow slightly. "What? Do you think I'll be like Wilson? Are you afraid I'd rather believe in someone else's words than listen to you?""If you're really like this, I'll never forgive you. I'll forget you and find another man to love…" Lisa snapped back, but Terry did not let her finish speaking.Terry leaned over, grasping hold of her chin. He tilted her face and kissed her lips, quieting her in the fierce kiss. He kissed her deeply, possessively, and a little roughly.Lisa initially struggled with the kiss, but the sensations crashed over her, drowning her in the kiss. She soon wrapped her arms around his neck, kissing him back.When the kiss ended, her cheeks were crimson, her eyes moist and alluring. "You can't possibly forget me and fall in love with another man," Terry rasped, his tone firm. Terry wondered if Lisa knew how she could stir his feelings with this look of hers alone. She was so attractive with the way she looked at him, making him obsessed
Clara tore open the letter. As she read it, she felt a chill run through her body. Clara should have known. What she feared most was bound to come. There was no way to escape them."What is this?" Mrs. Wells asked. Even so, she already had a hunch about the letter.Clara flashed a bitter smile. "Wilson is going to fight me for custody of Yanny.""You have to talk to Serenity. Didn't she say she'd help you?" Mrs. Wells said hastily.Clara nodded, looking down at the letter in her hand. Serenity was willing to help with the case. Even so, Clara knew it would be very difficult for Serenity to win the case, considering her prison record and financial conditionsClara kept these things from Mrs. Wells, not wanting her elderly mother to worry even more, "Yeah, I'll talk to Serenity. Mom, you should go to bed early. Don't worry too much," Clara urged, pretending not to worry.Mrs. Wells seemed troubled. "If it doesn't work out, let's beg Wilson again. If he really wants a child, h
'Is Wilson investigating Clara?!' Sandra wondered. 'Why is Wilson investigating Clara even after so many years? He just found her. Does he still have lingering feelings for her?' Just as Sandra was making guesses, someone suddenly pushed the door open. Wilson walked in to find Sandra holding the file in her hand.Wilson's eyes darkened. "What are you doing here?" he questioned."I-I made some food and brought it to you," Sandra explained. She then asked hesitantly, "Wilson, why are you investigating Clara?"Wilson stepped forward and took the file from Sandra's hand. "We're going to fight for Yanny's custody in court. I'll have to look into what's been going on with her over the years to have a better chance at winning in court."'Is that really so?' Sandra thought, still feeling a little uneasy. "I'm afraid, Wilson. Do you still have feelings for Clara?""What are you talking about? I couldn't possibly have feelings for her," Wilson said coldly. As he turned to his desk, Sandra
Sandra had to find a way to fix her mistake. She later found an opportunity to meet Wilson and 'unintentionally' told him about the bone marrow transplant, which made Wilson mistake her as his savior. From then on, Wilson thought Sandra was the one who had saved his life.Meanwhile, Clara did not even know that the man she had saved was the man she had fallen in love with—the same man who had put her in prison. Sandra had to become Mrs. Birch, so this was a secret she would never let Wilson or Clara know! ***Serenity took the file from Mr. Graham and was a little startled when she realized she had to send it to the Gomez Group. "What's wrong?" Mr. Graham asked. "This is an urgent document. The courier won't make it in time. They need it urgently, which is why I asked you to make a trip.""No problem," Serenity said, knowing there was no way for her to completely avoid Lucas. Many law firms in Solaria would have some form of business relationship with the Gomez Group. It wou
Lucas' behavior had placed Serenity in the spotlight. Serenity felt troubled, but the problem was... She did not have a choice. In the Gomez Group, she had no control over where Lucas wanted to go.When Lucas brought Serenity to the legal department, the whole department was shocked by his presence. The head of the department, Mr. Gregory, respectfully welcomed them into the meeting room and carefully took the documents from Serenity's hand. Mr. Gregory said with an awkward smile, "Sorry for the trouble. Please call us next time. We'll send someone to pick it up." Lucas had personally accompanied Serenity to the legal department. Clearly, she was someone important to him. When Lucas had been interviewed the other day, he had mentioned that he had fallen in love with a woman. Even Mr. Gregory could not help but wonder if Serenity was the same woman Lucas had mentioned. Everyone in the office was shocked by the interview, and many were speculating about the woman Lucas loved. Pr
Lucas looked at her intently, almost like he could see so far into her mind that he knew her thoughts.Serenity's heart almost skipped a beat. Taking a deep breath, she called his name instead this time. "Yes, Lucas. I don't want you to fall in love with me. I just want a peaceful life now. I don't want to play any more love games.""I've never regarded my love for you as a game. I'm serious about it," Lucas said soberly. "Did you think I was just fooling around? Can you tell me what I should do to make you think otherwise?"Serenity chewed at her lip, trying to think. "I'm tired. I really don't have the energy to love anymore.""I'll love you and wait until you have the strength to do so again. Don't be so cold to me. Please stop pushing me away," Lucas pleaded.Serenity looked at him, puzzled. "Why me? I'm just a nobody. I've been in prison for three years." Serenity added, feeling a little guilty, "Besides, I'm not the one you're looking for." "Yeah, why does it have to be
"Well… Why don't I go to his office and wait for him?" Lynette asked."I don't think that's a good idea, Ms. Blossom. I think you should wait outside," Blake said.Lynette gritted her teeth and sat down on the couch outside. Although respectful, Blake's attitude toward her felt different from before. Blake poured her a cup of coffee when she sat down, just like he normally did, but he did not try to flatter her like before.'Is it because of what Lucas said in the interview?' Lynette thought about how Lucas had openly stated that he was not dating her in the interview and became angry again.Lynette's classmates at school and the snobs at work were mocking her with all kinds of accusations after what Lucas had said in the interview. Many people had been flattering her because of Lucas, but that seemed to have changed. She was back to her original form.While lost in her thoughts, Lynette saw a senior executive walking out of the elevator. The executive approached Blake, asking, "M
"Serenity," Lynette asked curiously, "Remember the other day at the police station? Lucas said he had fallen in love with you. What do you think of him?""Mr. Valor seems to care about you a lot. Did you and Mr. Valor really break up?" Lynette probed, but Serenity simply looked at her indifferently and did not answer.Lynette seemed worried. "Serenity, you should know. I'm not well educated, and I've been married once. Lucas is the only man I can rely on, and… After getting along with him these days, I really like him."Lynette continued with a shy smile, "You have Jackson, but I only have Lucas. You won't compete with me for Lucas, will you?" Serenity did not answer Lynette. Instead, she kept staring at her, making her feel weak."Serenity, why are you staring at me like that? I-I know I've upset you before, but I'm saying this to you with all my heart now.""So? What kind of answer do you want?" Serenity asked. "Will you feel better if I say that I don't love Lucas and don't h
