"Oh, so that's what you wanted to ask," Lucas finally knew.

Coco nodded, and she quickly added, "But... it's alright if you don't want to talk about it. It's not really important..."

She lowered her head, hoping to hide her flushed face.

"You changed out of the gown yourself," Lucas replied.

"I did?" Coco's head snapped up, disbelief evident in her eyes.

"Yes, you changed yourself, but... I helped too," he explained. "After I carried you home last night, you woke up and complained about how uncomfortable the gown was. You desperately wanted to take it off. The gown had a zipper at the back, and you could only pull it down halfway. You made me help you unzip it."

"And then...?" she nervously prompted.

"And then?" Lucas' lips curved into a smile, unbeknownst to himself. Last night, when she removed the gown, he turned around so that he wouldn't see her undress.

But when she struggled with the zipper, she nuzzled up against him, tugged at his waist, and pleaded, "Unzip it for me

    This was the first time he had been kissed while blindfolded. He couldn't see, yet his other senses were heightened. He could sense her breath, her warmth, and even the softness of her voice very vividly.He was immersed in the moment. After she ended the kiss, she gently removed his tie and delicately rubbed his eyes."Lucas, your eyes are so, so beautiful! The first time I saw your eyes on that rainy day, I was already strongly attracted to them," she confessed."Attracted?" he asked softly."Yes, attracted. I felt like you were about to shed tears, and I... I don't want to see tears fall from your beautiful eyes. Eyes this beautiful... should not have tears in them," she said while kissing his eyes.A shiver ran through his body. Not long ago, this woman had declared that she would never behave intimately with him until he fell in love with her. Yet, now that she's drunk, she's behaving intimately without any restraint.And he, instead of rejecting it, found himself eagerl

    "Do I look like someone who would take back the things he's given out?" Lucas asked."Well... okay then, thanks for the gifts," Coco expressed her gratitude. "By the way, there's a Comic Con next week. The magazine company is organizing a small autograph session for me there. Are you free to come look around after the autograph session?""A Comic Con?" he asked."Yup. The exhibition hall is open until 10 PM. We're free to walk around the place before then. Of course, if you're busy, I can walk around on my own after the autograph session," she said.She often attended Comic Cons alone. If Minnie had free time, she would ask Minnie to go with her. But this time... she really wanted to go with him. She wanted him to learn a bit about her interests, and if he could also find enjoyment in them too, that would be even better."Alright. Let me know the time and place," Lucas answered.Coco's face brightened with a radiant smile upon hearing his response.Her smile stunned him slightly

    If Lucas were to fall in love with anyone, it should be her! She bore the closest resemblance to Serenity!The next day, Snow visited Coco at the studio. "Do you have a moment, Miss Souza? I would like to discuss something with you," Snow said."Do I... know you?" Coco regarded the woman suspiciously. At first glance, she resembled Serenity, but upon closer inspection, the differences became apparent.Serenity was currently pregnant and staying at home, while the woman had a slim figure and a flat stomach."I'm Snow Norris, Lucas' secretary while he was abroad. I have some information about Lucas that I’m sure you'd be interested in. Don't you want to know?" Snow said.Coco frowned. The fact that the woman referred to Lucas by his first name suggested a close relationship. A pang of jealousy surged within her."No, I don't. If there's anything I want to know about Lucas, I'll ask him myself. I don't need to find out through someone else," Coco replied. "Miss Norris, if you have n

    "You seem to be feeling really smug about the fact that you look like Serenity," Coco retorted. "It's not uncommon for two people to look alike, but you're going to the extent of imitating Serenity’s hairstyle and the way she dresses. You're trying to impersonate her and become her substitute! Do you really think Lucas would fall in love with a substitute?""So what if I'm a substitute? I love Lucas, and I don't mind being a substitute for him!" Snow said."I would never want to be a substitute. Even if I temporarily gain the affection of the person I love by being a substitute, it's nothing to be happy about. I'm simply taking advantage of someone's vulnerability! When the real person appears, I’ll become utterly insignificant," Coco said ruthlessly.Snow's expression turned unpleasant. She tried to embarrass Coco, but she was the one being humiliated instead."What do you know? Lucas loves Serenity so much that he would never fall in love with anyone else! When he was abroad, he

    Snow gritted her teeth in hatred. She could have persuaded Lucas without Coco's intervention."It's none of your business, Ms. Souza. It's my freedom to like Lucas," Snow hissed."You're free to like someone like him, but trying to destroy another couple's relationship is not right. It's simply immoral!" Coco said harshly."Ms. Norris, if you came to steal my boyfriend today, you're not welcome here. Please leave!"Snow's face contorted in anger, and she could barely choke out a response through her shock."Didn't you hear her?" Lucas turned around and narrowed his gaze at Snow. "You shouldn't be here. Also, I've already told you. It's impossible for us, and it never will be! If you want to leave your work abroad, you may submit your resignation. We don't hire useless people!" Snow pursed her lips tight. She could tell that Lucas was extremely angry. "I-I'll leave now. Don't be mad at me, Lucas. I know I was wrong. I'm sorry for making Ms. Souza feel uncomfortable." Then, Snow

    There was a short pause, then Lucas continued, "Well, Snow resembles Serenity very much. That's indeed why I saved Snow abroad. I didn't want her to fall deeper into the pit, so I provided her a job."Coco did not expect Lucas to tell her so much. Lucas had never liked to explain himself, but he was giving her an explanation.Coco seemed confused, so Lucas quickly clarified, "I'm saying this because I don't want you to get the wrong idea.""Oh." Coco nodded. "But she seems to know a lot about you," she said, a hint of jealousy in her tone."What about you? What do you want to know about me? I'll tell you everything you want to know." Lucas stroked her hair in encouragement."I want to know about you and Serenity. Will you tell me that too?" Coco blurted out, then she froze as she realized what she had said.Lucas' dark eyes fixed on hers, and they seemed to burn with emotions she could not understand. Coco swallowed hard. She could have just said that it was a joke, and busines

    A flicker of something flashed in Lucas' eyes."Yeah. I missed my chance with Serenity, but at least I'm here with you," he whispered. Maybe he was at God's mercy, so he had met her that fateful day."I don't know how long it'll take me to fall in love with you, Coco," Lucas admitted frankly. "But… If you're willing to stay by my side all the time, I want to marry you." Coco was struck dumb by Lucas' melodious voice."Get married?! You want to marry me?""Yes. As long as you're willing, I want you to be my wife."Lucas hoped Coco would not despise him for his inability to love her. If she could accept him as who he was, he would give her everything in his power!-Was that a proposal? That thought had been bothering her, even after Lucas left the studio. Was this a compensation for her? Because he did not have the confidence to fall in love with her? But why would anyone use marriage as compensation? Coco kept thinking about this until she became confused.Fortunately, he

    Uncle Dave remained nice to her, but Aunt Clementine's repeated demands eventually strained their relationship. Their relationship soon turned sour, and she no longer spoke her mind to Uncle Dave.Aunt Clementine and Harold had always been the ones who demanded money from her. Why did Uncle Dave call her suddenly? Maybe she would find out soon!Coco felt a pang of pain in her heart, especially as she thought of her happy times with Uncle Dave as a child. How wonderful it would be if everything was the same as it used to be!Later at night, Coco came to visit Uncle Dave at home. Uncle Dave and his family were waiting for her arrival. Coco entered the living room and found her parents' black-and-white photos neatly displayed on the table. The incense and candles around her parents' portraits made it seem like an offering to her late parents."What's going on..." Coco looked around in confusion. What were they up to? This was not a special day nor her parents' death anniversary. D

    “……” 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!

    "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
