Coco quickly stopped him. “Stop drinking! You've already had enough liquor today."Lucas stared at the woman before him blankly before realizing that it was Coco.“Coco...” he called out and smiled bitterly. “That’s great...”Coco wondered what he was talking about. "I didn't think I'd still see you after getting drunk. Does that mean if I drink a little more, you'll tell me that you’ll get back together with me?" Lucas smiled.Upon hearing that, Coco could tell that he was completely drunk. Lucas would never say such things if he was sober. A proud man like him would never utter such words."Lucas, you shouldn’t say anything like that to me even if you're drunk. I might misunderstand that you have feelings for me," Coco murmured.She knew not to take the words of a drunk person seriously because it would hurt more in the future."I do like you..." Lucas looked at Coco in a daze. "Coco, I finally allowed myself to fall for you, but why do you want to break up with me now? Do you love

The short distance from the living room to the bedroom left Coco breathless. She barely managed to help Lucas to the bed. She hesitated to leave when she looked at him fully dressed up in a suit. In the end, she decided to remove only his outer jacket, leaving his shirt and pants untouched.Little did she know that Lucas wasn’t asleep yet.Coco bent down and started to unbutton his jacket. As she moved to the last button, Lucas opened his eyes and grabbed her hand. “Ouch!” Coco exclaimed in surprise as his grip was so strong that it hurt her. “Did I hurt you?” He murmured and loosened his grip. Then, he kissed the back of her hand softly.“Coco, don’t leave me, okay?” His raspy voice broke the silence.In that instant, Coco felt a burst of emotions in her heart.She never wanted to leave Lucas. She was just avoiding becoming someone he would eventually despise.“Lucas, you know what? I really regret meeting you,” Coco whispered and gently caressed his face. “If it had been me who ha

Coco had failed to resist Lucas in the end. As she looked into the mirror, she questioned herself as to why she hadn’t resisted until the very end. Lucas was so drunk that she could have escaped if she really wanted to. Why did she ultimately choose to give herself to him? Maybe she wanted to indulge in his love just this once. Lucas probably wouldn’t remember any of this, but Coco was sober, and she remembered every detail clearly.“Coco, why are you spacing out?” Minnie came to visit Coco the following morning. She often spent time with Coco after the previous Comic Con incident.“Nothing.” Coco snapped back to reality and quickly shook her head. She had been thinking about last night the whole time.“By the way, all those things about you... uhh, everything that happened at Comic Con, has been taken down from the internet. You can barely find any related content online now. Do you think this was Lucas’s doing?” Minnie speculated, knowing there were only a few people in Solaria c

"May I help you?" the pharmacist asked politely.Coco hesitated for a moment before saying, "I need a morning-after pill." The pharmacist glanced at Coco a few times, and she led Coco to the relevant shelf and handed her the medication."It’s effective within 72 hours," the pharmacist kindly reminded her. "But this is only for emergencies. Don’t take it too often. It might harm you, and you’re going to have difficulty conceiving in the future.""Thank you," Coco said while noticing a trace of sympathy in the pharmacist's eyes.Coco paid for it and went back to her apartment. Coco wanted a clean break with Lucas, so she didn’t want to get pregnant although the chances of conceiving from a single encounter were slim.Even though she had once longed to bear a child with Lucas, having a child now would be selfish. The child wouldn’t have a complete family, and Lucas would feel burdened by it. If he were to meet someone who could pull him out of his emotional muck, an extra child would on

When Lucas woke up in the morning, he didn’t remember what happened last night after he was drunk, but the messy bed indicated that something had indeed occurred. Later, he learned from Caleb that Coco had been at his place last night.Lucas came to meet Coco to confirm what happened last night, but he was certain after seeing the pill. They had slept together last night. However, he wasn’t upset and regretful at all. In fact, he felt a little happy. “Coco, do you know what kind of expression you have right now?” Lucas said. “You’re really bad at lying.”Coco was stunned. “Alright, I think we need to have a serious talk,” Lucas said.“There’s nothing to talk about between us. I said everything I needed to at the hospital,” Coco said and stepped back to put some distance between them.However, Lucas quickly wrapped his arms around her waist, preventing her from moving away.“Don’t you think we should talk about what happened last night? Coco, no one in this world can take advantage

She was confused by Lucas’s words, but she knew what he meant soon.She looked at him in disbelief when two female bodyguards appeared in front of her.“You’re going to imprison me now?!”“You’re staying here for the time being. They will watch over you, so don’t think about escaping or taking any medication secretly. If you’re not pregnant after a month, I’ll naturally let you go. But if you are pregnant—” Lucas paused and looked at her solemnly. “You’re keeping the baby!”Coco was flabbergasted. She knew that he wasn’t joking. “We’ve already broken up! Why should I even keep the baby?” “Because you still love me!” Lucas said.Coco lowered her eyes in disappointment and shouted, “Lucas, you *sshole!It was the first time that she had cursed at him. She never spoke harshly to him even when he hurt her before they broke up, but she was furious this time. Lucas ordered the female bodyguards, “Keep watch over her. You’ll get it from me if anything happens to her.”The two bodyguards q

However, Minnie didn’t press further since Coco didn’t want to talk about it.“Alright, take care,” Minnie said.“Sure,” Coco replied.After that, she called her assistants and informed them about work-related matters. Once she finished the calls, Coco told the bodyguards, “I have some work materials at my home and the studio. I need to go get them.”They exchanged a glance and said, “Ms. Souza, you can make a list of the things you need, and we’ll get them for you.”Coco was at a loss for words. -Lucas went to Caleb's place.Caleb raised an eyebrow when he saw him, “Why are you here all of a sudden? Are you asking me to call Coco again to set up a meeting?”Lucas replied irritably, “She’s at my villa.”Caleb was stunned. “What are you doing here, then?”Lucas wasn’t sure about that either. “She might be pregnant,” he said.“Pregnant?!” Caleb was flabbergasted. Then, he shot Lucas a meaningful look. “Did you guys... when you were drunk? Since she’s at your villa, does that mean she

Back then, he had hoped that Coco would help him move on from Serenity. However, she was gone before she could do that. Coco was asleep when Lucas got back to the villa. He quietly signaled for the bodyguards to leave the room. He moved to the bedside and observed Coco’s sleeping face. Her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, almost as if she were having a bad dream.Lucas leaned down and gently brushed his hand over her brows. He wanted to protect her and keep her happy. Little did he know, he desired to see her smile every day. He felt heartbroken for her the more he learned about her past. He wanted to keep her safe so that no one could hurt her anymore, but she was suffering now because of him. Suddenly, Coco’s eyelashes fluttered, and she opened her eyes. She was startled when their eyes met. “Lucas?” Lucas calmly straightened up when he heard her. "Sorry to wake you up. You’ll be staying in this room for now. You can use anything in the villa. Tell the bodyguards if you need

“……” 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
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 3369
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
