John didn't expect that she would mention this matter on her own. He fell in love with her first and said that he wanted to get engaged to her, but she proposed to get married first. Was it even? However, he wasn't a strait-laced person. Besides, wasn't it a good thing that his beloved girl couldn't wait to marry him? If they got married, he could see her as soon as he got home from work, and she would accompany him for meals. If he worked at home, she would stay with him. When he woke up in the morning, he would see her sleeping face at once and say good morning to her. At night, they could sleep together. What a wonderful thing! They got married in early August. The wedding was very grand, and there were many guests. Almost everyone who had something to do with the Lu family and the Song family attended their wedding, and some even came from afar. The three floors in the most luxurious hotel in A City was filled to capacity. John would always
Time went by so quickly. In the blink of an eye, John was already sixty years old. He didn't like complicated things and didn't like to celebrate his birthday. However, Lydia insisted on holding a birthday party for him. Considering that he liked quiet atmosphere, Lydia didn't celebrate his birthday in style. She only invited some close friends. Benjamin and Isaac naturally went there. Arvis was already five years old. He was much more lively than a few years ago, but he was not particularly noisy. Adele was pregnant again. The child was less than five months old, but Isaac was very nervous and followed her everywhere. He was so careful that James and Benjamin couldn't stand him anymore. That day, James teased him, "Say, Isaac, why are you so cautious? Adele is not a porcelain doll. If you want to please her, you don't have to be so affected." Isaac handed a piece of apple to Adele. After she finished eating, he replied, "I love my wife.
I love you, like a tsunami rolling, like the wind rolling in the sand. I love you so much that I'm almost out of my mind. If you had known how much I love you, I would have saved all my love and devotion over the years and waited wholeheartedly, just for you to come by! —James Lu On the 27th floor of the Grand Dynasty Hotel. With a room card in one hand, Elizabeth Liang tried to walk straight with the support of the wall. Then she staggered out of the elevator. Her fair-skinned face was blushing from alcohol, yet it only makes her look innocent and lovely. "This one?" Elizabeth finally walked to the room door. Looking at the gilded numbers on it, for a moment she couldn't be sure. Big sis said the room number was 2703. Or was it 2708? 2703? Then is it 8 or 3 on the door? Elizabeth had drunk too much, and her head hurt. Her clear eyes were also a little blurred. She tilted her head and looked at it for a while but failed to distinguish the
The night wind blew the white curtains gently, bringing in the cool breeze. In the darkroom, the floor was littered with clothes. Elizabeth Liang felt awful and dizzy, and she could feel him kissing her the whole time. When she couldn't take anymore, he finally fell asleep, with her in his arms. … When Elizabeth woke up, she was snuggling against the man's chest with her head resting on his powerful arm. She could feel that neither of them were wearing anything. Her heart jumped and she tried to recall in a panic what had happened last night. Turns out, what happened last night was all real, it wasn't a dream, she had really become Theodore Chao's and spent the night with him. Realizing this, Elizabeth frowned. Although Theodore had mentioned that he wanted to be with her, he had never asked again after she righteously declared she has to wait until the wedding night. But last night, he... She passed out last night from exhaustion w
In the bathroom, Elizabeth Liang looked at herself in the mirror. She almost couldn't recognize herself. Her neck and body were covered in the aftermath of lovemaking, these bruises and marks were proof of how crazy last night was. If they were from Theodore Chao, it would've been fine. They were going to get married sooner or later. But, this was all from a strange man she had never even met before! Elizabeth thought of Theodore, and she couldn't hold in her sad and regretful tears anymore. Sure, there are many unmarried couples who live together in today's world, but she just couldn't accept that she gave her the first time so carelessly to a stranger. How was she supposed to face Theodore? She must ask the man outside why he is in her room! ****** When Elizabeth walked out of the bathroom, she saw that the man had already put on his clothes. He was sitting on the single-person sofa in the room dressed in a classy black handmade a
The cheque drifted around in torn pieces, whirling gracefully in the air and falling to the ground. James Lu looked at the woman's stubborn face and suppressed his displeasure. "I only meant well." Elizabeth Liang sneered and said, "I know you meant well, but it means differently to me. It was my mistake to enter your room and be dragged onto the bed by you. It's all my fault. So, keep your money, I don't want it." She turned around to leave. She really didn't want to stay here anymore. Everything here was telling her about the absurd mistake she had made last night. "Wait!" Seeing her turn around, James said lightly, "I said I meant well." He didn't even know why he was still explaining, "If you won't accept my money, please let me send you home." Elizabeth raised the corner of her lips. "No, thank you." She wishes she would never see him again! He looked all over her and sneered. "Are you sure you want to go out like this?" Hearing this, she
"We're here." They arrived at an old villa district with nice greenery. "Thank you." Elizabeth Liang came to herself, then opened the door and went out before he could say anything. James Lu looked at Elizabeth's dejected figure from behind. He frowned, then lit a cigarette, and started the car. Elizabeth entered the living room, and to her surprise her paternal uncle August Liang and aunt Charlotte Dong were both present, sitting on the sofa in the living room and looking at something. Aunt Charlotte seemed particularly excited, overjoyed at something in her hand. She wanted to go upstairs without being noticed, but her cousin Josephine Liang came down the stairs after only two steps. "Elizabeth, where were you?" She asked in a displeased tone. Elizabeth stopped and frowned. Where was she? Didn't her cousin know? Sure, Elizabeth entered the wrong room, but it was Josephine who deliberately gave her the wrong room card! Could it be... tha
"Because you're a drag." Theodore Chao looked at her, expressionless. "Ha..." Elizabeth Liang couldn't help but laugh softly. He had been engaged to her since she was a child. Through all these years, no one was as gentle and caring to her as he was. She really thought that he was the one. He told her a month ago that he needed to go abroad for official business. She sent him off at the airport, and he told her to wait for him to come back... Wait for him, so he could be with her cousin, and tell her that she's a drag? A drag? "Just because I didn't sleep with you?" Drowned in sadness, she stared into his eyes, hoping to find a trace of dishonesty. But there was none. "Elizabeth, we've known each other for so long. Leave before things get ugly." Elizabeth felt like she had just heard a joke. "You want me to leave this place? This is Liang estate! It's mine! My parents left it to me!" "Yours?" Like a smug villain, Charlotte Don
