Isaac was found at nine o'clock that night. He was seriously injured because his head bumped into a reef and he had been soaked in water for a long time. Elizabeth went to the hospital with James. Isaac's head was wrapped in thick gauze and he was having an intravenous drip, but he was in a coma. "The doctor said that it is unknown when he can wake up. Maybe... he will be in a coma forever." Benjamin stood by the bed, looked at Isaac whose face was as pale as a piece of white paper, and clenched his hands into fists. Elizabeth felt sombre when she heard that. She looked at the thing in her hand, walked forward, and gently put it in Isaac's hand. That was the small bear-shaped drum she had picked up on the cliff in the afternoon. Thinking of the scene beside the cliff in the afternoon and looking at Isaac whose lips were pale, she only hoped that he could wake up earlier. It was not until later that she finally understood why Isaac said that he wanted to sm
Elizabeth sat on the swing in the garden and looked straight at the flowers and plants in front of her, but she was not in the mood to trim them. Ten days had passed, but Adele hadn't been found. The time of the search was limited. After the police left, James and Benjamin didn't give up. Benjamin asked his bodyguards to look for Adele for another week. They not only searched the small place where she jumped down, but also searched for hundreds of kilometers around, but they still couldn't find her. Finally, although they were unwilling, they had to give up. It had been so long since Adele jumped off the cliff and they had searched for a long distance. Even if they didn't want to give up, they had no other choices. These days, James told Elizabeth something about Adele and Isaac, and Elizabeth felt so sympathetic towards Adele. It turned out that Adele was the child of the nanny in Isaac's family. Her mother worked as a nanny in the Bais, and her father wa
As soon as his weak voice sounded, Elizabeth could no longer control herself. She covered her mouth tightly and cried silently. James took a deep breath and reached out to grab the other hand of Elizabeth tightly. His strength was so great, but his hand was trembling slightly. It seemed that he wanted to comfort her, but also want to seek solace from her. "Isaac..." Benjamin said with a smile, "We have found her, but she choked a lot of water and hasn't woken up yet, so she didn't come to see you." They had discussed to say to Isaac like this before they went upstairs. Isaac had just woken up and couldn't be stimulated. Even though he had to know the truth sooner or later, it was the right time at this moment. "Oh? Really?" Isaac nodded calmly when he heard Benjamin's words. But then he said lightly with a smile, "Don't lie to me. I learned the truth just now... She... can't be found. She'll never come back again..." He had been in a coma, but he also seem
After returning from the hospital, Elizabeth took a bath and lay on the bed. She couldn't fall asleep because there was something on her mind. James patted her on the back, "Go to sleep." "Mm." Elizabeth replied. Her eyes were closed, but Isaac's determined face flashed through her mind. She sighed and simply sat up, "James." "Yeah." "Doctor Bai..." She pursed her lips, "What did he mean by saying that?" James smiled weakly but said nothing. He was also in a heavy mood. He still remembered how shocked he was when he heard Isaac's words. He wanted to say something, but Benjamin pulled him and shook his head at him. He had been friends with Isaac for so many years. They could share everything except for wives. Isaac was so young, but he had made up his mind to die. As his good friend, James didn't want him to be so depressed. However, he understood him so well. Isaac had lost all his hopes. Perhaps his thought might be a little selfish, bec
"Mom, you're here?" Elizabeth was reading in the room. Jane told her that her mother-in-law was here, so she came down. Lydia looked at her and said with a smile, "Elizabeth, come here!" When Elizabeth approached, Lydia handed her a bag and said, "Look, I bought a dress for you. This is the latest style for autumn. Try it on and see if it's suitable for you." She heard about Adele's death a few days ago and also went to South Lake. She came here because she wanted to see Elizabeth, and James had called her to ask her to accompany and persuade Elizabeth. "Thank you, mom." Elizabeth took it, but she didn't try it on. She just sat next to Lydia with the dress in her hand. Looking at Elizabeth who was in a low spirit, Lydia thought for a moment and said, "Elizabeth, I know that you are sad in your heart. In fact, we are the same. Your father and I watched Adele and Isaac grow up together. Adele's body couldn't even be found... Alas!" She sighed, and her expres
After going out of the restaurant far away, Evelyn was still in high spirits and felt herself particularly awesome because of what she said just now. Humph! She would rather not get married for the rest of her life than marry such a man. Her mother must be crazy. How could she introduce all kinds of men to her? She wouldn't listen to her this time! Just when she was feeling complacent, her phone rang again. When she saw that it was a phone call from her mother, she was no longer smug and immediately became frightened. Her hands trembled and she did not dare answer the phone, so she hung up directly. But the phone rang again after a few seconds. After hanging it up a few times, Evelyn was about to cry. Finally, she was worried that her mother would be sent to the hospital because of anger again, so she had to pluck up courage to answer the phone. "Hello?" She said in a trembling and nervous voice. "Evelyn!" Her mother roared, which startled her,
"What?" After listening to Elizabeth's words, Evelyn sighed with emotion, "My god! How can there be such a hateful scum in this world? No wonder..." No wonder James asked her to accompany Elizabeth. But since she had promised James, she bit back the words she would like to have said. Yesterday, when she came out of Lu Enterprises, she called Elizabeth. She thought that it was getting late, so she just chatted with her on the phone for a while and asked her to go out the next day. Elizabeth was in a bad mood indeed. After Evelyn knew what had happened, although she didn't know those people, she was in disbelief. "No wonder what?" "Oh, nothing." Evelyn shook her head and said, "Why didn't I hear any news about this? It shouldn't be." Elizabeth sighed, "The Bais must have blocked the passage of information. After all, this is a disgraceful thing." "That's true." Evelyn nodded. Then she looked at Elizabeth, who looked unhappy, and asked, "So, are you in
Elizabeth and Evelyn took a taxi to the art exhibition. Standing outside the gate, Elizabeth looked at the person and name on the post and was a little stunned, "This is really Sebastian's art exhibition?" Although her major was design, she always paid attention to painting. Sebastian was a painter who suddenly became famous a few years ago, and he was known as the most talented and promising abstract painting master. There were layers of meaning in his paintings, but the tickets were hard to get. When he held painting exhibitions before, someone even said, "Can you crazy people buy the tickets slowly? I don't even know what the ticket looks like!" Evelyn nodded, "Of course!" "It's difficult to get the tickets to his exhibition." As Elizabeth said this, she looked at Evelyn and said, "How did you..." Evelyn raised her head proudly, "I have a wide range of contacts in this city. Isn't it easy for me to ask my acquaintance to get two tickets for us?" Althoug
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.
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
"Happy birthday to you!" She sang the birthday song softly. Her voice was dulcet and soft, and it was very pleasant to the ear. The candlelight on the cake flickered as she moved, and the fruit on the cake gleamed in the candlelight. As Lydia approached John step by step, he felt that he was going crazy. She preferred to wear dresses, but all her dresses were lovely. Sometimes, she wore like a read lady. But at this time... She wore a long black lace dress that only reached her bottom. It was so flimsy that he could see her underwear... Her bra and pants were red and sexy, which only covered the most important parts of her body... At this time, John was obsessed with her, and he was hot all over. He felt that all the blood in his body was boiling, and his head seemed to be a little dizzy. "John..." Lydia came to him and looked at him shyly. "Today is your birthday." He looked at her bright and affectionate eyes and couldn't help but
John's birthday was coming soon, and Lydia was very distressed, because she hadn't decided what to buy for him. It was in the dark ages of computing. There was a computer in her house, but the network was not very developed. Therefore, she only asked a few close friends about it. They told her that she could buy him tie, cuffs, and clothes, but she denied these ideas at once. John was born in a rich family. After he grew up, he became a very excellent businessman. He had received many expensive birthday gifts, let alone something like a tie. As his fiancee, she couldn't be perfunctory, could she? So, she went to the mall, but she didn't see anything she liked. It seemed that giving him a special and novel birthday gift was not easy. She didn't know how to make handwork or paint. She had learnt piano when she was young, but she gave up later. After thinking about it for a while, she suddenly felt that she was so stupid. Except for the fact that she co
With the permission of Lydia's parents, John travel with her abroad for a few days. After coming back, he hired someone to teach her at home. Lydia had a feeling of freshness at the beginning. After all, she used to attend classes at school. At this time, she could learn knowledge at home. Moreover, the teachers were very careful and very patient. However, the next day, she was not willing to study like this, so she went to find John. "Why?" John was puzzled, "Is it because they can't teach their lessons well enough? If that's the case, I'll change new teachers for you tomorrow." "No!" She kept waving her hand, "They are very good teachers and they're patient, but..." She looked at him cautiously and thought twice before speaking, "They are just too patient, and they take good care of me as if I'm a child. I feel... a little stressful." John was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled, "Is this the reason?" "Yeah." Lydia nodded, "But I am not a chil
Lydia really didn't go to school anymore. Although all the misunderstandings had been clarified, she didn't want to go to school again. On the second day after she went through formalities, Nina came to her and asked for her forgiveness. At that time, John was there, but later he found an excuse and went out. Lydia looked at Nina who had suddenly become much more haggard and sighed in heart. Why did Nina have to provoke her back then? "I'm sorry." Nina said softly. "Oh." Hearing this, Nina immediately got unhappy and glared at her with hatred, "Lydia, are you very smug now?" She was apologizing to Lydia, but Lydia actually replied to her so indifferently. Lydia shrugged her shoulders, "Do you think I'm smug now?" "I'm apologizing to you!" "I heard it. Didn't I answer you as well?" "You..." Nina sneered, "Is that your answer?" "What do you expect?" Lydia was puzzled, "How do you want me to answer you? Should I thank you w
Nina's voice came from the stereo around the playground. She had said a lot. There were so many people on the sports ground, but none of them spoke. They were all shocked and stunned. "As for what I said to Lydia, it was my prank. Actually, Lydia's fiance has nothing to do with me. I... just envied her for having such an excellent fiance and I was jealous. Therefore, I did that to her that day..." After she said this, the crowd, which had been quiet, suddenly burst into an uproar. "Oh my god! How could it be?" "I heard that she was very excited that day. She cried, knelt in front of Lydia and begged her. But she said it was a prank?" "She couldn't do that even if she wanted to prank on Lydia, could she? That is Lydia's fiance." "I don't think it's a prank. I was in the dormitory at that time and I saw it with my own eyes. Nina looked really sad. In my opinion, Lydia must have put pressure on Nina, so Nina has to do this." "Lydia's family
As soon as Lydia entered the school, she walked with her head down, because she was afraid of meeting acquaintances. Besides, with John holding her hand, she did not have to worry that she would fall down. After what had happened yesterday, she... had become quite well-known in school. "Lydia, look up." His voice was very soft, but she was somewhat pressurized. She gave him a resentful look, "Do you even want to force me to raise my head?" He chuckled, "Didn't you listen to my words carefully just now?" "Yeah." Lydia snorted, "But I came in here, didn't I?" She said, "You said those words indeed, and I think it makes sense, but... John, it's hard for me to do it, okay? I know I'm not wrong, but I'm very worried. You are not me, so you won't understand my mood." John sighed lightly and didn't know what to say at the moment. Although he didn't talk much in ordinary times, he did things in a decisive manner. Perhaps, he really had no way to
"John, you're here?" Nina ran into the house with great joy. Just now, she went out, but when she knew that he had come here, she rushed back, for fear that she would miss him. Fortunately, he had not left yet. Looking at John who was sitting in the living room, she was very happy, and her heart jumped very fast. John was very excellent, and she was infatuated with him. Although she had done such a thing, she didn't regret it at all. As long as she could be with him, she couldn't care about so much. That day... why on earth did he come here? Was it because Lydia couldn't stand it anymore and broke up with him? Had he found out how good she was? John raised his head and took a look at her. His eyes were very bland. When she was about to walk over, John stood up. He arranged his suit and said to her father, "I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer as I said. I hope to hear it tomorrow." Her father's face darkened, but he didn't dare to lose
