When the girls in the audience heard Lucas mention his "wife", they sighed in disappointment.“So, do you like comics?” the host asked.“I didn’t initially, but my wife loves it, so I gradually started to like it too,” Lucas replied.The girls in the audience immediately began to chatter again, wondering what Lucas's wife looked like. The contest consisted of two parts—a quiz and a game segment.The quiz segment involved answering various comic-related questions, some of which only seasoned comic fans could answer. Even Coco had to think hard about some of them, and there were a few she couldn’t answer at all.But to Coco’s surprise, Lucas managed to answer almost all the questions correctly. He was always the first to write down his answers, missing only two questions in total.The host, slightly skeptical, asked, “Did you really start liking comics because of your wife? How long have you been interested in it?”“Less than three years,” Lucas answered.“That's impressive,
"He was smiling so tenderly at her!” "But his wife looks pretty ordinary, and it seemed like she had a limp when she walked! Maybe she's some rich woman, and he's her pet," someone speculated maliciously.However, another voice quickly countered, "Wait! That guy looked like Lucas! His wife does have a bit of a limp! It must be him, especially since he said his last name is Gomez!""Lucas?""The prince of the entertainment industry!"Suddenly, people around them started realizing who he was. Some began searching online for pictures of Lucas to confirm if the man they had just seen was indeed him.Moments later, someone in the crowd murmured, "The way he treated his wife made me believe in true love again."After Coco received her prized limited-edition comics, they didn’t continue exploring the comic convention much further. They had already seen most of what they wanted to.“Did you purposely calculate the scores just now? Is that why you purposely missed the last few throws?”
Just then, a van suddenly pulled up and screeched to a halt in front of her. Two young men wearing masks and baseball caps dressed in black, rushed toward Coco, reaching out to grab her.Coco was too stunned to react. Before she could process what was happening, several other people emerged from the side, blocking the attackers.With a few moves, they had subdued the attackers. Seeing this, the driver of the van tried to flee the scene quickly.What happened next left Coco even more bewildered. Several cars surrounded the van, forcing it to crash into the divider.Coco’s eyes widened in shock as she recognized one of the people who had subdued the attackers. He was one of Lucas’s bodyguards."You...""Sorry for the fright, Mrs. Gomez," the bodyguard said respectfully.Coco was feeling bewildered rather than frightened.Lucas rushed over in an instant. “Coco, are you alright?” He asked anxiously. Coco shook her head absentmindedly, thinking he seemed more affected than she w
Coco’s eyes widened. "All the time? So, you had these people following us from the first day we were here?""Not only here. It's been the same in Solaria too," Lucas said. "Coco, I lost you once, and I won't let myself make the same mistake twice."He couldn't afford to lose Coco again.At first, Coco wasn't too fond of being followed everywhere, but after today's incident, she knew that it was crucial. Lucas’s status naturally aroused greed in many people. And once greed took over their rationality, people would take desperate risks.Coco suddenly thought of something. "Wait. Did your bodyguards see us when we were... kissing by the roadside when no one was around?" Lucas awkwardly mumbled, "Maybe."‘It’s a yes, then,” Coco thought to herself while blushing. Then, she began looking around."What are you looking for?" Lucas asked."Looking for your bodyguards. Where are they now?" she replied."If you can spot them, I might as well fire them immediately.”Coco was at a l
The person filmed the video from above, probably from a nearby residential building, so their faces weren't clearly visible due to the bird's-eye view.Despite this, the video attracted a large number of comments.To Coco's surprise, most of the comments were positive. People were saying how lucky she was, how romantic the situation was, and how Lucas protected her so well. They were envious of her. However, there were also a few negative comments mixed in between. "What are you looking at?" Lucas asked curiously."Someone filmed today's incident and posted it online," Coco said and showed Lucas the video.After watching it, he commented, "It's not bad.""If I had known we were being filmed, I would have dressed better.” Coco felt a little regretful. Since they were going to an anime convention, she had dressed casually and wasn't wearing any makeup."I’m head over heels for your looks. How much more attractive do you want to be?" Lucas’s eyes sparkled with a certain desire.C
Coco wanted to know everything. Upon hearing this, Minnie sighed and agreed, "Alright, I'll tell you everything I know."-Lucas was on the couch looking through some documents when Coco returned to the villa. Hearing her footsteps, he looked up at her affectionately."Hey.” Coco suddenly rushed into his arms. "Lucas, I love you so much.""I know. I love you too." Although he was a bit puzzled by her sudden affection, he was very happy."From now on, I'll stay by your side, and I won't mind you having more bodyguards around me. The number doesn’t matter!" she continued."What's wrong? Is it because of the kidnapping attempt? Are you scared?" Lucas asked in confusion."Yeah, I’m a little shocked by it. So, please don't let me face any danger in the future, okay?"“Of course, don’t worry about it.” Coco rested her head on his chest, listening to the sound of his heartbeat.She was more afraid of what Lucas would become if he lost her again instead of being kidnapped.Co
Serenity wondered if Caden’s attachment to Cynthia would eventually turn into love. And what about Cynthia’s feelings toward Caden? After catching up for a while, Lucas and Jackson went to the study to discuss some business matters while Coco and Serenity continued chatting away in the living room.At some point, the topic shifted to the attempted kidnapping. Serenity laughed and said, "You made headlines twice during your honeymoon, huh? I saw the videos that people posted. I can see that Lucas really cares about you.""Yeah. If he hadn't arranged for bodyguards in the shadows, I might have actually been kidnapped," Coco said. "Luckily, everything turned out fine!""Is the baby fine?" Jacqueline asked."Baby?" Serenity was surprised."Daddy and Mommy say that there will be a baby after you come back from your honeymoon,” Jacqueline said as her eyes fixed on Coco's belly.Coco blushed slightly. "Not so soon!"Jacqueline was a little disappointed. "I can't wait to see your ba
"Do you have a favorite celebrity or cartoon character?" Coco asked again."No.""Really? Not even one?""Why would I like them?"Coco was left speechless by Micah’s response.Then, they stared at each other quietly again. Coco could only marvel at how different the triplets' personalities were.Before long, Serenity and Jacqueline returned to the living room, accompanied by a little boy who was slightly shorter and slender compared to Jacqueline.He was dressed in a simple T-shirt and looked somewhat pale and thin, but his features were strikingly handsome. With proper care, he could grow into a very attractive young man."Aunt Coco, this is Morris!" Jacqueline introduced him, then turned to Morris and said, "This is Coco. She's a really amazing cartoonist! I have so many drawings from her. I'll show them to you later.""Hello, Aunt Coco," Morris said quietly, looking a bit nervous.Coco smiled at him."Hello, Morris. I'm sorry I didn't know you were coming today, so I di
