"Jimmy, you..." Zena took a deep breath, "I went to your house indeed, but I didn't say anything harsh to Elizabeth. I went to your house at that time because one of my father's friends brought specialty to us, and I sent it to you specially. I..." As she spoke, her eyes were filled with tears and she looked a little aggrieved, "I really didn't say anything to her. I don't know why Elizabeth told you that. I really... don't know what to say." What she had to do was to deny it. According to James's attitude, he not only did not break up with Elizabeth but also made up with her. For her, this was indeed a piece of bad news. But the only thing she could do was to try not to alienate him and then find a chance in the future. James sneered, "Zena, you have to admit what you've done. Since my wife said so, it means that you really did that and said those words." Zena's heart sank when she heard him calling her by the name. But it was not time to care about how h
Zena wiped the tears on her face and continued, "Jimmy, I didn't do anything wrong. At least I think so. Everyone is selfish, isn't it? Maybe I made a wrong choice to leave you in the past, but I want to go back to you. You used to love me so much, didn't you? Why can't you give me a chance now?" "Xavier has a grudge against you, and I had been pursued by you for so long, so he treats me with neither cold nor warm attitude. The most important reason is..." Zena sneered, "He... can't give me the life I want because of what happened that year, and he doesn't treat me well either. In the final analysis, it's all your fault. I've become like this because of you! Now, I want to be with you, but you don't want me anymore. I'm truly... pitiful." James swallowed a few times, and he suddenly became a bit irritated. What happened that year... He was really helpless and didn't know what to say. He thought that Xavier had overcome himself... Looking at James's e
"Xavier!" As soon as Xavier opened the car door, he heard Elizabeth's voice. He turned around and smiled her way, "Elizabeth? So you're here today!" Elizabeth gave an awkward smile, "Yeah, I was upstairs just now, so I didn't know that you're here." "It's not a big deal." Elizabeth took two more steps forward. After hesitating for a moment, she asked, "Well... are you really not going to get married to Zena?" Although she had heard from Zena that they had broken up, she still wanted to ask Xavier. "Did you hear that?" Xavier smiled, then nodded, "Yeah, we won't get married." "Why? It's not because you can't give her the life she wants, right?" After all, Xavier was a popular painter and could earn a lot of money. Moreover, he had so many shares of Lu Enterprises. It was definitely not because of some financial issue. "That's the real reason." Elizabeth was shocked by his answer, "Did... she... see you help me in the hospital? So, yo
Elizabeth was stunned for a moment, "What? No, I didn't mean that. I mean that you've been busy for a whole day, so you need... Forget it. You can do whatever you want." James nodded with a smile, "Alright." Elizabeth wanted to break away from his hand, but she suddenly stopped, "By the way, Xavier came here today. Do you know that?" James looked down, "Yeah, I know. Mom told me." Recalling what Xavier had said, Elizabeth felt regret about him, "Is there... something wrong with Xavier's... Well, can't he be cured?" James' eyes widened, "You've... knew it?" Elizabeth nodded, "He didn't say it clearly, but I think... I can understand what he meant. Otherwise, why did he say that he couldn't give Zena the life she wanted?" For a moment James didn't say anything, and then his lips parted, "He... Uh, did Xavier say anything else?" Elizabeth was confused by his words, "Why do you suddenly become nervous?" James coughed lightly, "No, I'm n
"Huh?" Elizabeth was a little stunned and looked at James with her eyes full of puzzlement. James blinked his eyes, "Just give me your hand." After that, he raised his chin at her left hand, "Left hand." Elizabeth looked at him suspiciously, and then slowly reached out her left hand to him, "What do you want to do?" James did not answer. He gently grabbed her hand and reached out to his trouser pocket with the other hand. Two seconds later, he took out a small, glittering, and pink object from his pocket and looked at Elizabeth with a tender smile. Elizabeth immediately widened her eyes. She almost couldn't believe what she had seen. The ring... was the thing which was very important to her and she wanted to go back to get secretly. Why was it in James's hand? Moreover, she thought that he would never want it again. "You..." She opened her mouth, but did not know what to say. James said with a smile, "Yeah, the important thing you mention
The early autumn night was a bit cold. However, in a room in Lu Mansion, the atmosphere was hot and sticky. After arguing and misunderstanding each other for a few days, Elizabeth and James, these two lovers on bed, almost wanted to reach the depth of each other's souls. James's actions were a little crude, as if he wanted to make up for the fact that he didn't have sex with her for a few days. He used all his strength and changed the postures constantly. Elizabeth only felt that she couldn't bear it, but all she could do was to accept all the enthusiasm that he had given her... Not knowing how much time had passed, Elizabeth felt so exhausted that she was about to sleep. It was not until then that James finally finished. James was not in a hurry to take a bath. Instead, he embraced Elizabeth under the quilt and asked, "Sweetheart, how do you feel?" His voice was still a little hoarse, and his breathing was not very steady. Elizabeth was so tir
Josephine was wearing a pair of super big sunglasses. She leaned against a tree with a lady's cigarette in her hand and looked straight ahead. That place... She sighed and felt extremely helpless and painful in heart. She inquired many times and finally knew this place. She knew that James was looking for her and she couldn't come out rashly, but... she couldn't control herself. So, she came here. After smoking a cigarette, she threw the cigarette butt on the ground casually and then walked toward the somewhat shabby little house. ...... "Why are you here?" Theodore stood under the tree in the yard and looked at Josephine blandly. There was no joy on his face, and he looked a little impatient. "I'm here to see you." Josephine took off her sunglasses and smiled gently, "I had been inquiring for a long time before I knew that you guys are living here... Is what auntie said true? The injuries on your face are really caused by James?" As soon
After walking for a long time, Josephine seemed to have lost all her strength. Only she herself knew how heartbroken she was. In the future, she knew she had to wander from place to place with another man. As long as she thought she could no longer be with Theodore, and she couldn't even see him again, she felt a stab of pain in heart. Why did she always live a hard life? Suddenly, someone pulled her arm heavily, and she almost fell down. "Ah!" She screamed, but she could not help but be happy in heart. Was it Theodore? "Theo..." She turned around quickly in surprise, but her face changed as she bit back the words she would like to have said when she saw the man. It was not him. "What?" Robert said fiercely, "Theodore?" Josephine shook her head subconsciously, "No." "No?" Robert snorted, "Do you think I don't know about your past?" Josephine bit her lip tightly and suddenly felt a little scared in heart. Although s
