Lynette felt relieved. At 4:12 pm, she was putting on her makeup! There were many eyewitnesses!"Who moved the camera?" Lucas asked."We'll have to investigate further. We'll ask around to see if anybody saw anyone moving the camera. We'll also reach out to those near the lounge to see if they noticed anything. Unfortunately, this might take some time," the police officer said, then moved onto the topic of Jonas Zeller.According to Jonas' statement, he went to see Lynette on the day of the incident, and Lynette told him to wait in the lounge.About 10 minutes later, Jonas started experiencing discomfort, and after that, he couldn't remember anything else.The hospital's examination showed that Jonas was indeed drugged with an aphrodisiac. Unfortunately, the drug could easily be found online, making it difficult to trace the source.The police said they would keep investigating, but with the clues they had now, it may be hard to get a result that quickly.Lynette was immensely r
"Almost missed the bus," a soft voice said behind Serenity.She turned around and was taken aback to find Lucas standing behind her. "Why did you board the bus?" she asked."I still wanted to take you home. Since you declined my offer to give you a ride, I decided to keep you company on the bus instead," he explained.Serenity never expected that Lucas would take the bus with her.The driver said, "Please buy a ticket."Lucas rummaged around in his pockets and found a hundred-dollar bill. It was the only "loose change" he had."Wait!" Serenity quickly stopped Lucas from putting the note into the ticket machine. "You're gonna buy a ticket with a hundred-dollar bill?"Lucas shrugged, "It's all I have."Serenity pursed her lips, then said, "Never mind, I'll pay for you. Put your money away." She swiped her monthly pass one more time, then walked to the middle section of the bus.It wasn't rush hour, but although the bus wasn't packed, all the seats were taken.Serenity found a g
He must follow his heart!Serenity did not know what to say. They both fell into a tense silence.At that moment, a passenger got up from her seat to get off the bus, leaving the seat next to Serenity empty."Aren't you gonna sit down? Or do you prefer to stand with me?" Lucas asked.Serenity pursed her lips and sat down. At least, if she's sitting down and he's standing up, there would be more distance between them, and the atmosphere wouldn't be so awkward.Oh, how wrong she was.Lucas came closer and held onto the handle on her seat, one hand on each side of her. He was tall, so he had to bend down slightly, making it seem like he had completely enclosed her in his arms.Serenity blushed and looked down, trying to ignore Lucas.However, they were still ten stops away from her apartment, so the ride could take more than 40 minutes.Therefore, Serenity closed her eyes and feigned sleep.Lucas peered at the woman in the chair. He observed her black hair, her willow eyebrows,
"Are you awake?" She heard Lucas ask.Serenity looked up and blushed a little. She responded vaguely before quickly exiting the bus.Lucas followed her off the bus.Along the way back to her apartment, no matter how slow or fast she walked, Lucas would keep pace with her and stay next to her."Okay, I'll head back now," he said when they arrived, obviously having no intention of going in. Before leaving, he remembered something, so he turned around and said, "By the way, even if the police can't find anything, I'll keep investigating. I don't care who the culprit actually wanted to harm, I'll find them and make sure they pay for their crime."Serenity asked Lucas, "You believe what Lynette said? That she was the intended victim and I got dragged into it by accident?" Lucas replied, "No, I'm not taking her word for it. I'll find out what really happened." Serenity then asked, "If you discover that Lynette really is the culprit, will you turn her over to the police and let the l
Lucas bought this condo for her.Before this, she thought Lucas was treating her very well. He would buy her whatever she wanted.However, after seeing how he treated Serenity, she finally realized that, when a man genuinely cared about a woman, he would do more than just shower her with material possessions. He would show her a tenderness that he would not show anyone else.Lucas obviously cared about Serenity!How could Serenity take Lucas away from her?!Lynette didn't know why Serenity chose to remain silent after regaining her memory, but since that was Serenity's decision, she shouldn't get so intimate with Lucas! She shouldn't let Lucas fall in love with her!The elevator stopped on Lynette's floor. She unlocked the door and walked in. Before she could close the door, a person rushed into her house.The person then slammed the door shut.Lynette was about to scream, but the person's words quickly silenced her."You don't remember me anymore, Ms. Blossom? I moved the sur
Lynette's eyes lit up. "You have a plan?""If I didn't, I wouldn't be here. You want to be Mrs. Gomez, don't you? Unfortunately, the woman Lucas Gomez loves is Serenity, so you have no chance," Aria said.Lynette was no fool. She immediately asked, "What's in it for you?""Money. I just want money. Besides, I have a grudge to settle with Serenity," answered Aria. If not for Serenity, she and her parents would not be in their current predicament.Her parents had to find work in another city, while she stayed in Solaria doing odd jobs. She couldn't even get a job as a janitor; she was only a temporary stand-in for people on sick leaves.But as luck would have it, she ran into Lynette and was "hired" by her.Lynette frowned. She had just been blackmailed by Jonas Zeller, and now Aria Lewis wanted to blackmail her too?"Don't tell me you're not even willing to make a little sacrifice to gain the final victory?" Aria questioned with a smirk. "I'll help you get rid of Serenity, then I
Serenity noticed her coworkers whispering and giving her odd looks when she arrived at the office the next morning.But whenever she looked in their direction, they would stop talking.Serenity's eyes narrowed. Did something happen? Was it something involving her?When Serenity went to the pantry, a chatty coworker approached her and said, "Congratulations, Serenity! Looks like difficult times are behind you. Don't forget us when you get rich!"Serenity asked, "What are you congratulating me for?"Her coworker gave her a knowing look and said, "C'mon, stop pretending like you don't know. It's all over the internet! Everyone's jealous of you! But there are lots of women interested in the Crown Prince, so you need to be wary," warned Serenity's coworker.Serenity had no idea what she was talking about. All she knew was that it had something to do with Lucas.However, before Serenity could inquire further, her coworker already left the pantry.All over the internet? Serenity was a
Since that was the case, it's better to strike back hard and make them afraid!Liliana's face turned pale. Serenity continued, "Like you said, I managed to land Lucas Gomez. Even if I can't become Lucas' wife, I can still ask him to deal with you."Liliana gnashed her teeth, unable to retort. If Serenity asked Lucas Gomez to deal with her, he would certainly do it.With the way Lucas Gomez was treating Serenity, she probably wouldn't even need to ask. She just had to let Lucas Gomez listen to the recording and he would act of his own accord.The thought made Liliana tremble. She had already hit rock bottom. If Lucas Gomez decided to mess with her, she would probably have to leave Solaria.Serenity didn't bother with Liliana anymore. Carrying the brewed coffee, she walked out of the pantry and went back to her desk.A message from Lisa popped up on her WhatsApp. "Are you really dating Lucas Gomez?"Serenity replied with "? ? ?".Lucas Gomez again? Why did it seem like everyone w
