Coco's expression changed. The people there were mostly those who had bullied and humiliated her back then. They were close to Layla.These people were a nightmare for Coco. She turned pale and trembled slightly at the sight of them. Minnie, who was holding Coco's arm, noticed her mood change. She stepped forward and shielded Coco. "We’re not here for the reunion. Stop imagining things.""Yeah, yeah, Coco is a cartoonist now and her work is being adapted into a TV series. Coco will be famous if it becomes a hit! Of course, she won’t be bothered about a simple reunion,” a person said sarcastically."Oh, please. Has she forgotten about her shameless actions in university? Her past will be dug up for sure if she gets famous." Someone else sneered."Yeah, does she think that she’s somebody just because she drew a few comics and has a TV series adaptation? She was trash back then, and she's still trash now!" Another person mocked.Coco remained quiet and didn’t defend herself. It w

“Forget it. Coco is right, she didn’t hurt me. Let's leave it at that," Layla said while pretending to be upset. "Layla, how can we let her off like that!""Yeah, we can't let her off so easily!""She'll become even more arrogant if we leave her alone!"Coco was amused as a group of people began speaking up for Layla. However, someone forcefully tried to make her kneel suddenly. They were pressing her shoulders down forcefully.Coco struggled to push the person away, but there were too many of them. She was forced to kneel before Layla.Minnie was furious. "What are you guys doing?! Who gave you the right to do that?""Coco deserves it. Do you want to join her?" Suddenly, Minnie saw a waiter passing by and quickly shouted, "Go to the room next door and find someone! These people are trying to harm me and my friend!"The waiter hesitated and was about to speak up, but someone interrupted him. "We're just fooling around. Our old classmate here can't take a joke!" "My a

Layla thought that Minnie was lying because she was desperate to save Coco. There was no way that someone like Lucas would be interested in such a boring woman.Meanwhile, Coco was struggling desperately as she was being forced to drink the wine. However, it only made things worse. The wine that was spilled from her mouth soiled her clothes, making her look utterly miserable."Stop it! Stop it!" Minnie cried. Tears were streaming down her face. "Somebody, please help! Save Coco! Lucas! Please come and save Coco!"The people mocked her cries. Just as Minnie was about to lose hope, the laughter died down, replaced by the sound of punching and groans.Minnie looked up to see Lucas kicking away the person who had forced Coco to drink like a superhero.He knocked the people who were pinning Coco down to the ground swiftly.Minnie was overjoyed while the others were completely stunned.Coco was on the floor choking from the wine. Her throat was burning, and she felt dizzy. She

Just then, someone finally came back to their senses and shouted at Lucas, "Who do you think you are to talk like that?! Do you think that you’re really Lucas, the prince of the entertainment industry? Hahaha!"Lucas coldly glanced at the person. "I am indeed Lucas. What’s so funny about it?"The icy stare and indifferent tone caused the person to feel uneasy. He couldn’t believe that the person standing in front of him was Lucas. Just then, a timid voice was heard, "He... he really does look like Lucas. I've seen photos of Lucas online before, and they look similar."A dreadful silence filled the air. Layla looked at the handsome man protecting Coco. She could tell at a glance that his clothes were extremely expensive, and he had a powerful demeanor.She wondered if what Minnie said was true. She couldn’t believe that a woman that she used to look down upon had managed to snag a man like Lucas in Solaria.Just then, Lucas called someone and instructed them, “Send a few me

"Why should I forgive you?" Lucas asked nonchalantly."Huh?" Karleigh was stunned."I'm not one to forgive easily. There are very few people in this world who can get away after offending me." He then gave a brief order to his men, "Take her away."His men pulled Karleigh aside, and Lucas left with Coco in his arms, leaving everyone else looking at each other in shock.Karleigh kept pleading, "Mr. Gomez, wait! Please forgive me! I was wrong! I apologize to Coco and you. Please don’t go yet, Mr. Gomez…” Lucas didn’t stop in his tracks no matter how much Karleigh begged.Seeing Karleigh's desperate state made those who had ridiculed and bullied Coco tremble in fear. They were scared that they would end up that way."Minnie, is Coco really dating Lucas?" Someone finally asked Minnie.Minnie snickered. "I told you so, but you guys didn't believe me! Anyone who wants to harm Coco should think twice. Lucas will avenge Coco for all the grievances she suffered back then till now. Watc

“How could you let her drink so much? Why didn’t you stop her?” The doctor scolded Lucas. “It’s dangerous to drink so much. She could be gone in minutes if her airway was blocked by vomit.” The doctor continued to reprimand Lucas while examining Coco. Lucas listened like an obedient student as his eyes filled with concern for Coco. "How is she? Is she okay?""She should be fine for now. How much exactly did she drink?" The doctor asked.Lucas wasn’t sure how much Coco had drunk. When he finally got there, the people in the room were forcing her to chug down the whole bottle of wine.The doctor sighed. "Well, just in case, I’ll draw some blood to check her blood alcohol content.""Okay," Lucas agreed.As the doctor prepared the paperwork for the test, Coco suddenly opened her eyes and fixed her gaze on Lucas.Lucas was surprised to see Coco awake. “Are you feeling okay?" he asked.Coco responded with a silly grin. Although her eyes were on him, Lucas could see that she wa

The nurse skillfully tied a tourniquet and tapped Coco's arm to locate a vein."Hold her still. Don't let her move when I draw her blood," the nurse instructed."Got it," Lucas responded. He let Coco rest her upper body against his chest while he held her shoulder with one hand and her arm with the other.As the needle pierced her skin, Coco instinctively tried to pull her arm away, but Lucas held her firmly."It hurts..." she complained pitifully."It'll be over soon. Just bear with it," he said patiently. He couldn't recall ever being so patient with any other woman except Serenity.Once finished, Lucas held Coco and waited for the results, which would take about 15 minutes.After ensuring the bleeding had stopped, he got up and disposed of the cotton ball in a nearby trash can.When he returned to her side, Coco was staring at him intently.“The nurse has drawn my blood…” She was still tipsy."Yes," Lucas replied. "It’s finished.""Can I kiss you now?" Coco asked while

Their teeth collided with each other, but Lucas was focused on the softness of her lips instead of the pain. Coco’s kiss sparked a strange feeling in him.Lucas had never liked being intimate with the women he dated. Despite having dated many women, he never allowed anyone to kiss him. However, he wasn’t repulsed by Coco’s kiss at all.He didn't know how long the kiss lasted, but she pulled away eventually and rested her head on his shoulder. Coco fell asleep soon.Lucas looked at Coco helplessly, wondering how much she would remember when she woke up.After receiving the test results and confirming that she was fine, Lucas carried Coco back to the car."Take us back to my villa," Lucas instructed the driver.Throughout the ride, Lucas couldn't help but space out as he looked at Coco. He kept wondering if he would come to love her. He wasn’t sure if he could ever love anyone again. If he did, he hoped that the woman would be Coco.-Coco felt like she had a long and swe

“……” 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
