Lisa took her phone and went to the corridor outside the office to talk. "Mom, I'll find a date on my own. Don't worry about it and don't keep looking for a blind date for me. How many has it been?""You know how many! It's been years. You're not 28 anymore. You're 33 this year. It won't be long before your fertility will decline so much that you can't find someone to date!" Mrs. Quest said bitterly.The light in Lisa's eyes dimmed. She knew her mother's worries and anxiety. Mrs. Quest was worried she would grow old alone with no one to take care of her. If she waited too long, she would miss a woman's peak reproductive years and end up childless. Lisa did not mind growing old alone. It was no big deal at all. Besides, she could live a good life all by herself. Although she would eventually get old, she could retire in a nursing home.Lisa did not want her parents to worry more than they already had, so she gave in. "Okay, okay. I get it. Give me his contact. I'll contact him and

Lisa slowly came to her senses and quickly understood Louie's real intention. Louie was just trying to gain some satisfaction by poking fun at her.When Lisa and Terry were dating, Louie kept making sarcastic comments about her. Lisa knew Louie was talking behind her back, saying Terry would dump her sooner or later. When she returned to the office after her recovery, Louie had gloated over the fact that she had broken up with Terry and that Terry had dumped her. She had even made snide remarks about her. "See, I knew it. A guy like Terry can't be serious about you."'Can't be serious?' Lisa did not think so. Anyway, at least… When they were dating, she could tell that Terry really loved her. Unfortunately, she did not have the background to give him what he wanted.'It's such a pity that Lisa and Terry broke up. Otherwise, Lisa would be the wife of the White Maple Group CEO right now," Louie said with impish glee. She could not miss any chance to gloat over Lisa's misery. Lisa lo

Lisa closed the webpage and sent a text to the man she was supposed to go on a blind date with that evening. Right now, she should be focusing all her attention on the blind date and not anything else! Perhaps she might one day meet someone on a blind date whom she truly liked who also liked her too.As dusk fell, Lisa went to the square in the city center at the agreed time where she met her blind date for the evening–Gale Porter. He was said to be a department head of a large company, and as soon as Lisa caught sight of him, she could not help but gasp silently. It seemed that the man her mother had set her up on a date with this time was slightly… out of her league.Gale was wearing leather shoes, a smart suit, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He seemed elegant and gentlemanly, not to mention quite attractive as well. According to her mother, he was supposed to be two years older than her, so he should be 35 years old, and yet, he looked like he was not a day older than 30."

"I guess I should say that I've never met a woman to whom I've fallen in love with."Fall in love… Indeed, such an experience was something that you might encounter but never seek! Lisa had a profound understanding of this fact through her own experience because for someone like her who loved chasing her favorite idols and all kinds of handsome celebrities, there had only been one man in her life whom she had truly fallen in love with–Terry White.No one else had ever made her heart race the way Terry did."You're right," said Lisa, "you don't just fall in love with anyone you meet. Especially not when you've fallen in love once. It's really hard to fall in love again after that."Gale seemed slightly taken aback."So, you've fallen in love before?" he asked."Yeah," she replied honestly. "I did once."Although the man was supposed to be her blind date, the more she chatted with him, the more she felt like he was a good friend of hers."Is that so?" Gale's interest was piqued.

"Okay," replied Lisa.As she stood on the roadside waiting for Gale to go get his car, the night's cold breeze blew past her, making her feel a little uncomfortable. She then ran to a garbage can nearby and threw up into it, emptying a significant portion of her stomach's content.After vomiting for a while, she drowsily groped her hand around inside her bag to find some tissue, but she could not find any even after searching for a long while.Just then, a hand reached out toward her, offering her a handkerchief.With eyes hazy from drunkenness, she said, "Oh… thanks."Without giving it much thought, she then took the handkerchief and wiped her mouth with it. Only then did she realize that it was a cloth handkerchief, not a tissue."Um… I think I'd better wash it before I give it back to you…"As she spoke, she turned around, thinking that the man who had just given her the handkerchief was Gale, but it was only then that she realized she was wrong! She found herself just inch

Just then, Gale's car arrived, and he was startled when he saw Lisa standing next to Terry. Although Terry was not a celebrity, Gale's company just happened to be working with the White Maple Group, and as a department head, Gale had naturally seen a picture of Terry White. At the same moment, Lisa caught sight of Gale, so she waved her hand at Terry and said, "Okay… So… I'm getting into the car now… Hiccup! Goodbye…"As she spoke, she opened the door to the passenger seat of Gale's car and was just about to get inside, but before she could step in, Terry suddenly grabbed her arm and pulled her away from the car before yelling at Gale, "You can go now! I'll take her home today!"He did not wait for Gale's reply before dragging Lisa toward another car which was parked nearby."Terry White!" Lisa shouted. "Let… Let go of me!"What Lisa had just shouted confirmed Gale's suspicion that the man he had just seen really was Terry White! But what was the CEO of White Maple Group doing

As soon as the car reached the entrance to Lisa's apartment complex, she lowered her head and unbuckled her seatbelt before thanking Terry in a soft voice, and just as she was about to step out of the car, she heard Terry's voice from behind her asking–"Are you going to date that guy?"Lisa froze for a good while before she regained her senses again, then realized that Terry probably meant Gale Porter when he said "that guy"."He's really not bad at all," she said. "He's financially stable, and we got along pretty well. Besides, he's also quite attractive, so if he does end up liking me, I don't see why I shouldn't date him.""Is that all you think about before deciding to date him?" he asked, glaring at her. "Does that mean that you like him?""Why not?" she asked, slightly bemused by his reaction. "He's pretty much a dream guy for so many women!""Lisa!" he cried, his voice suddenly raised. There was a hint of anger in his voice, which only puzzled her. Why would he be angry a

Hearing this, Lisa sighed and said, "You could tell just from my voice? I thought I hid it really well!""At the very least, I could tell that you had something on your mind," said Serenity. Because in the past couple of days, Lisa had been acting a little too… cheerful… on the phone and during video calls. And Serenity knew that sometimes, the happier Lisa seemed, the more troubled her mind was."What's wrong?" Serenity asked with concern. "Did something happen?"Lisa had no intention to conceal the truth from her friend, so she bluntly replied, "I met Terry again.""Did you go find him?" asked Serenity, taken aback. She knew, of course, that Terry White had been in Solaria these past two days."No," Lisa replied. "He just suddenly turned up. I'm not sure if it was a coincidence or not, so now my feelings are in a mess.""Then did you…""Don't worry," Lisa assured Serenity. "I know that there's no way Terry and I will ever get back together again, so I won't let myself be stu

“……” Morgan suddenly found himself unable to retort. She... wasn't wrong. “But when you play house, you can pretend to be parents with one person today and another person tomorrow. Real marriage is different; you can’t choose someone else.”Renee widened her eyes, listening intently.“The only person you can choose is me. Do you understand, Renee?” he continued.She nodded vigorously. “I understand!”“Do you really?” Morgan asked, a little skeptical. He was already fifteen, so he could grasp the concept of marriage, but she was only eight. Could she truly comprehend it?“So, in the future, I can only marry Morgan and be your bride, right? I can't be someone else's bride, right?” she asked. “I don’t want to marry other boys anyway. I like you the most, Morgan. Of course I’ll only be your bride!” she happily declared, her worries fading away.So she could be Morgan's bride when she grew up! That's great!After finishing another piece of snack, Renee thought of something. She put o

Despite her unease, she couldn’t resist when she saw the sweet desserts. She indulged herself.However, as she ate, her eyes remained fixed on Morgan, clearly still waiting for him to clarify Lucy’s claims.“You want to know if you’re a child bride, right?” Morgan began.Renee nodded.“Do you know what a child bride is?” he asked.She blinked. She had a vague idea, but not enough for her to articulate it.“To put it simply, a child bride is a girl raised by a boy's family. The girl will marry the boy when she comes of age. In the old days, some families were too poor to raise their daughters, so they would sell their daughters to become child brides for richer families,” Morgan explained.Renee blinked. “But my parents aren’t poor, and I'm raised by them, not by other people. That means I’m not a child bride, right?”“Correct, you are not,” Morgan affirmed.She breathed a sigh of relief, and a bright smile spread across her face. “I knew it! My parents would never sell me! The

"Morgan!" Renee turned to Morgan, unease etched on her face."The Moon family, eh? I'll remember this," Morgan replied calmly, then lowered his head to meet Renee's anxious and confused face. "Let's go, Renee. I’ll tell you what you want to know later."He led her away holding her hand.Benson looked worried. "Miss Lucy, how could you say that?""It's the truth!" Lucy shook off her fear and spoke defiantly. "Daddy and Mommy said she’s a child bride. A child bride is a girl sold by her own parents!""But the White family is not like that. Those things only happened to daughters of poor families in the old days," Benson explained. "You really shouldn’t have said that, Miss Lucy. You shouldn’t do that again.""Why do I have to listen to you?" Lucy retorted, displeased.Benson was too ashamed to tell Lucy in front of others that the Moon family simply couldn’t afford to offend Morgan. Dealing with the White family was already a headache, and Morgan's background was even more formi

Benson and Lucy were also dumbfounded. Benson started getting anxious. He felt like things were starting to unfold in ways that he did not expect."Mr. Grimes, I..." Benson stepped forward, intending to speak to Mr. Grimes.However, Mr. Grimes moved past Benson without so much as a glance at him. He went up to Morgan and said, "Master Morgan, I apologize for the oversight!"Everyone was stunned to hear that, including the security guards who had been called over. They were secretly relieved they hadn't forcibly removed anyone yet. If they had offended someone Mr. Grimes was showing so much respect to, it would have been really bad for them!Morgan regarded Mr. Grimes with an unreadable expression. He calmly recounted the situation to Mr. Grimes.After hearing about what happened, Mr. Grimes responded, "This set of stamps was not pre-ordered. If you like it, please take it. Feel free to take anything else in the exhibition that catches your eye."This declaration shocked every

"Who are you?!" Benson exclaimed, astonished. The mysterious figure remained silent, simply looking at Morgan.Morgan calmly reiterated to Benson, "I said, wait for Mr. Grimes." He then pulled out his phone and dialed a number. "I'm Morgan Wood. Please have Mr. Grimes from Lazy Cat Culture come to the Sleepy Cat Exhibition in Solaria. He should be in the area, right?"After ending the call, the person on the other end stared at the phone in disbelief.The Sleepy Cat Exhibition? What's going on?Benson, Lucy, and the staff stared at Morgan in shock, but the look in their eyes quickly turned to ridicule."Ah, a young man's naive bravado – how impudent!" Benson scoffed."Sir, please don't cause trouble," the staff member warned. "Or I'll have to call security."Morgan simply lowered his head to say to Renee, "Looks like we'll be here for a while. If you're bored, I can ask someone to walk around with you."Renee shook her head. "Morgan, what if this stamp set has really been p

Benson's words were not only meant to exert pressure on the staff, but also to inform him that they were on the same side.As expected, when the staff heard what he said, there was an instant change in his expression. He turned to Morgan and Renee and said, "I'm sorry, but it turns out this stamp set has already been pre-ordered by this customer."Morgan saw through the so-called pre-order as nothing more than an act. "When I asked you to wrap it up earlier, I didn’t hear you mention it was pre-ordered.""We forgot to mention that. Our apologies," the staff replied.Lucy, wearing a smug expression, raised her chin at Renee, causing Renee to puff out her cheeks in frustration.Benson calmly observed Morgan and Renee. The White family's White Maple Group had numerous overlapping businesses with the Moon Group. They were often competing with each other. Originally, the White Maple Group’s business activities weren't concentrated in Solaria, so even though there was competition wi

But before Morgan had even finished speaking, a girl's voice piped up, "I want this stamp set!"He turned to the voice and, upon seeing who it was, narrowed his eyes slightly. It was Lucy Moon, the girl Renee mentioned earlier. At the sight of Lucy, Renee immediately reacted like an angry little kitten. "Lucy Moon, why do you always try to take my stuff away?""Your stuff? How is this your stuff? You haven't paid yet!" Lucy shot back, her eyes fixed on Morgan.Morgan was well-known in their class, admired by many girls who claimed he was even more handsome than movie stars. If only Lucy had a big brother like that! She would be the envy of all the girls in class... no, all the girls in school!Unfortunately, her own big brother was not as good-looking.Last time, Lucy had tried to give Renee Sleepy Cat toys, asking for Morgan's email address in return. However, Renee accepted gifts from everyone but her, which infuriated Lucy."But if you want, I can give this stamp set to Re

Unlike many wealthy kids, Renee was quite restrained with her spending. She had never spent recklessly and often saved leftover money. Of course, when she wanted something beyond her budget, she would act cute and ask her Daddy or Morgan to buy it for her.Lisa was the least susceptible to her charms, so Renee didn’t dare to bother her!When they arrived at the exhibition, Renee’s eyes sparkled with excitement. There were so many adorable Sleepy Cat merchandise! They're all so cute! She wanted a lot of them, but realizing her limited budget, she knew she needed a sponsor! The best one was right beside her: Morgan!"Morgan," she said, flashing him a super bright smile.Seeing her like this, Morgan immediately knew she wanted to ask him for something. "What is it? Do you want me to buy you Sleepy Cat merchandise?""You’re so smart, Morgan! No wonder so many girls in our class like you and asked me for your phone number!" Renee praised him.As soon as she mentioned it, Morgan'

"Okay," Renee replied obediently, snuggling up to Morgan and acting cute. "Take me to the exhibition, Morgan! I know you’re the best. You’ll definitely take me, right?"Morgan pursed his lips. At 15, he was no longer a little boy. Although Renee was only 8, she was his destined wife.He had been protecting her since the day she was born. At first, he thought that he would only marry her because according to the family prophecy, she was the one most suitable for him. Over the years, however, he realized that his feelings for her ran deeper than he had initially thought.He found himself wanting to help her fulfill her wishes, and would clean up the mess when she caused trouble. Things had become different from what he had expected, but he welcomed them. He felt grateful that she was the one who was destined for him!With her by his side for the rest of his life, he would never feel lonely."Will you get into fights again?" Morgan asked."No more fighting, I promise!" Renee quickly
