Lucas' heart sank at the sound of that voice.

Micah, Jace, and Lucas quickly stood in a defensive position with their backs against each other's.

In the blink of an eye, countless heavily armed men rushed forth to surround the three of them. The only noise in the uncannily silent building was the sound of heavy breathing.

A masked man appeared amidst the crowd.

Smiling gleefully, he said, "Thunder, today will be the day you meet your demise. What do you think of this grave? I picked this place specially for you. Are you happy with it?"

Instead of panicking, Lucas remained calm and said, "I knew it. You didn't die. How can I accept this when you've dug your own grave?"

"Stubborn, huh?" Draco spat.

"Men, finish him off! Let us avenge our fallen brothers!"

Under Draco's command, his henchmen aimed their weapons at Lucas, Micah, and Jace, then started firing.

The trio dodged the attacks as they fired back at Draco's henchmen. They wore night vision goggles, which helped the

    "Where is Lucas?" Chelsey asked, her anxiety seeping through her voice. She didn't care if she woke Mark up from his slumber. Mark scratched his head, puzzled. "Mr. Yates should be at home. I was on leave since yesterday." "Mark, I need you to do something for me," Chelsey told him. "Go to Lucas' house. Give me a call when you see him there. Please, go and find him. Now."Chelsey wasn't sure if it was because she kept thinking about Lucas during the day that brought about her dream of him that night.The dream seemed so real that it made her panic. She'd never had this kind of feeling before. "Okay, I'll head over to his place right away," Mark immediately agreed to her request. "I'll call you when I arrive." "Thank you so much!""No problem! Talk to you later." "Bye!" Chelsey couldn't sleep even after hanging up. She knew Mark wouldn't call her back anytime soon, yet she couldn't bring herself to put down her phone. She walked to the window and noticed that it

    Chelsey and Fred took the earliest flight to Jenton City. Before they departed, she remembered to call Mark to check if he'd managed to find Lucas' location. However, Mark was unsuccessful.An image of someone abruptly appeared in Chelsey's mind.She thought of Micah.She quickly called Jason to send her Micah's number. When she called him, his phone was also turned off. She was certain it wasn't a coincidence that Lucas' and Micah's phones were turned off. Moreover, Micah wouldn't turn off his phone for no reason due to his job. Before Chelsey turned off her phone, she texted Mark again. "Find out where Micah is. He should be with Lucas in the same location."Mark replied, "Got it." After turning off her phone, Chelsey furrowed her brows and sank into her thoughts as she sat in her first-class seat. "Don't worry, Chels." Fred tried to reassure her. "Lucas is a lucky fellow. Nothing would happen to him."Chelsey forced a bitter smile. "Thanks, Uncle Fred." F

    An hour later, Lucas was pushed out of the operating theater. The surgery lasted for seven hours. Lucas lay on the bed in a ward with tubes inserted into both his mouth and nose. Chelsey's heart broke for him. "Lucas, open your eyes and look at me, will you?" she sobbed. "Wake up. Get well soon… Get up and look at me." She gripped his hand tightly as she called out his name repeatedly. Everything else was insignificant in the face of death. She couldn't bother with anything else as long as Lucas was healthy and alive. She didn't mind if he lost a limb, his vision, or his mind now. She was willing to assume the role of a caretaker to attend to him, even if it meant for the rest of her life.Chelsey kept watch by the bed. Her eyes were trained on Lucas the entire time. In addition to the wound on his chest, many other physical injuries were also visible to Chelsey. His body was almost entirely covered with bandages. She took out a Q-tip, immersed its tip in water, and

    Chelsey was about to say something, but Lucas yelled at her. "I told you to get out! Don't you understand?" he roared. "Or should I call the guards to force you out of here?" Tears pricked Chelsey's eyes as they threatened to fall. "Okay…" she said. "I'll leave." She told herself that everything was fine. Lucas was alive, after all. It didn't matter if he forgot all about her. She'd make him remember.Chelsey and Fred then left the ward together. Micah, still panicking, stayed in the ward and tried to help Chelsey by saying, "Luke, she's the woman you love the most. You put your life on the line for her. How could you forget her just like this?" Lucas swallowed. He spoke too loudly just now, and his chest badly hurt.He said hoarsely, "Go and check if she's left." "Huh? Okay," said Micah, walking over to the door. Peeking out, he couldn't see Chelsey anymore, so he returned to report to Lucas. "She's gone," he said, visibly upset. "That's good." Lucas sigh

    Chelsey shot Fred a dazzling smile. Now that she'd think it through, she felt her entire being relax. Sensing that her smile was genuine, Fred heaved a sigh of relief. "It's good that you aren't upset," he said. "Let's find ourselves a hotel to spend the night. We'll visit him again a bit later." "Okay."There was a five-star hotel nearby. They checked in at the front desk. They each had a suite to themselves. Since they rushed over, they didn't manage to bring anything with them. So, Chelsey wore the same clothes she wore yesterday after showering. When she lay on the bed, she realized that she was famished. She hadn't eaten much since yesterday, so her stomach was empty. She ordered takeout, and as she waited for her food to arrive, she texted Mark. "How's Lucas today?"Mark replied soon enough. "He's fine. Don't worry." "Please tell me right away if anything happens." "Okay, Ms. Jenson."After gobbling up her food, Chelsey took a nap. It was afternoon when

    Chelsey couldn't stop her tears from flowing when she saw the wounds all over Lucas' body. With her head lowered, she helped him clean the wounds and change the blood-stained gauze.Lucas closed his eyes and pretended not to know it was her by his side. He feared he would lose it if he continued looking at her. Micah sat beside Lucas on the bed, scrolling on his phone. Suddenly, he said, "Luke, why don't you just tell Chelsey the truth? She wouldn't be mad at you if she knew that you had your reasons for pretending to become an amnesiac."If it weren't for the bandages all over his body, Lucas would've shot up from bed and stuffed Micah's mouth with whatever he could get his hands on. He thought Micah was a useless brat for being unable to keep his mouth shut. Lucas instinctively turned to look at Chelsey. Her eyes were wide as she stared right into his. Lucas' heart skipped a beat. He wanted to look away before she noticed him staring, but it was too late. The two of t

    Chelsey had earned a certificate of professionalism in attending to other people, after all. Lucas was so parched that he drank half the water bottle in one go. After getting some water, his throat felt much better, but his bladder started feeling the effects. Chelsey had to empty the urine drainage bag for him. Lucas was reluctant to let her do it, so he said, "I'll have the care worker do this. You don't have to do any of these anymore." "It's fine. I've gotten used to this." Chelsey's expression remained the same. She didn't feel awkward about having to change the urine bag. Lucas stared at her with a stern expression. "Chels, you're my wife. You're not a nanny. I've never thought of you as a nanny." Chelsey shot him a soft smile. She understood him. "I'd be willing to accept it even if I were to become your nanny. I want to look after you, Lucas."She continued, "I might sound outrageous, but I want to protect you too. I don't want to see you get hurt anymore…"

    Goosebumps formed all over Chelsey's body. She admired Lucas even more now. Timothy continued telling her about Draco. "Lucas once destroyed Quantum Corp's lair and killed all of Draco's friends and family, but Draco faked his death. So now, he's returned to avenge his brethren."He concluded, "This time, though, we're still unsure if the one who died is the real Draco or a mere substitute.""Thank you, Tim. I understand it all now," said Chelsey, fear seeping through her voice. She wasn't initially afraid of listening to his descriptions of Draco, Lucas' enemy. However, terror rose in her heart, and her legs turned to jelly after Timothy was done speaking. Timothy helped her to the couch, and they sat. "Listen to me, Chels. You have to stay away from Lucas to keep you and your baby safe," he warned. "Do you know what happened to the last person who offended Draco?" "No," Chelsey muttered as she pictured an execution in her mind. "That person merely killed one of Drac

    Sandra flashed a satisfied smile as she wrapped her arms around Micah's neck and kissed him. "Please be gentle. I'm afraid it'll hurt… Mmm…"An hour later, Sandra lay limp in Micah's arms. Both of them were drenched in sweat.Although the car was not spacious, it did not affect Micah's performance. Sandra was very satisfied with him. He turned to look at the sleepy Sandra and gently asked, "Does it still hurt?""Yeah…"Sandra did not expect it to hurt so much to the point she'd cried in pain.Now, she was exhausted. She did not even have the strength to keep her eyes open.Micah reached out to gently wipe away Sandra's tears. "Are you satisfied?""Yeah," Sandra replied as she embraced him tightly. At that moment, all she wanted to do was sleep. Sandra then fell asleep. She had no idea how she returned to the hotel.When she woke up, it was already morning.Micah was lying beside her, and neither of them was wearing anything. Her eyes lit up at the sight of his hand

    Micah's judgment may be somewhat clouded, but he was still aware that he and Sandra were in the car.It was their first time doing the deed. Wasn't it too intense for it to happen in the car?"Let's head back to the hotel. The car is too small," Micah said as he grabbed Sandra's hand, his voice hoarse but sexy. Sandra looked at him seductively. "Are you sure you can hold on until we return to the hotel? I can't stand it anymore. I want it now…"She stuck out her pink tongue and licked her lips as she spoke. Every move of hers was charming.Micah was both amused and helpless at the sight of Sandra's eagerness. He had never met such an unrestrained woman like her. She was indeed a lethal poison. Micah's throat felt like it was on fire. He swallowed hard and replied, "It's our first time. Let's not be hasty. We can enjoy it better in the hotel room."Sandra was not the only inexperienced one. It was also Micah's first time. He felt that doing it in the car lacked a sense

    Sandra's suggestive tone caused Micah's heart to flutter, and indescribable images appeared in his mind again. His lips trembled as he nervously asked, "W-What do you want to do?""What do you think I want to do?" Sandra winked at him and then licked her lips. Everything was implied but left unsaid, understood without being spoken.Micah felt both excited and awkward. He cleared his throat before replying, "It's too fast.""We'll get there eventually. So, why not do it sooner? We can enjoy it in advance," Sandra said seriously.Once again, her logic left Micah at a loss for words.He took a deep breath to remain rational. Micah refused to let his instincts take the reins once more. "We've just started dating, and there's no guarantee we'll continue to do so. I don't want to hurt you if we don't work out."But Sandra did not seem to care. "Why is your thinking still so conservative in this day and age? I'm not concerned about it, so why should you?"She merely wanted hi

    Sandra did not answer Xenia's question. Instead, she replied, "The crawfish here tastes good. It's big and fresh."But Xenia showed no interest in the crawfish. She was captivated by Micah, her eyes lingering on him."Sandra, is he your boyfriend or bodyguard?"Sandra shot Xenia an annoyed glance and answered, "He's my boyfriend. What's it to you?""Nothing much. Your boyfriend suddenly rushed onto the stage and disrupted the filming. Mr. Dodd was pissed. Tell your boyfriend he shouldn't do that again. Even if he wants to become famous, that's not the way."Xenia's words were somewhat sarcastic, leaving Sandra feeling uncomfortable.The latter retorted, "My boyfriend doesn't want to become famous. He rushed onto the stage because he saw I was feeling unwell. "If it weren't for him, I'd have died by now. And if someone dies, the filming can't continue, anyway."Sandra did not know hypothermia could be so severe. She thought she could have toughed it out.Fortunately, Micah h

    Sandra could break up with Micah next month if everything went smoothly.She playfully winked at him and said, "It's your turn to feed me."Micah choked on his saliva upon hearing that.They were in public, so he dared not do it at all. However, Sandra had already opened her mouth."Hurry up and feed me."Left with no choice, Micah peeled a crawfish and fed her.After eating that, Sandra smiled and demanded, "I want you to feed me with your mouth.""Don't push your luck."At that point, Micah's face had turned red as a tomato.Despite being an upright person, Sandra had led him astray. His mind was now filled with unwholesome thoughts."I will push my luck," replied Sandra. She then pouted coquettishly. "Quick! Feed me!"She had thoroughly gotten the better of him.Micah became a man without principles, only capable of spoiling his girlfriend. He could not bring himself to refuse her demands.With a crawfish in his mouth, he turned to feed it to Sandra.She aggressi

    Sandra did not want to order takeout at the hotel.So, she searched online for a highly-rated restaurant and asked Micah to drive there.Sandra had chosen an eatery that specialized in crawfish. Upon their arrival, she boldly ordered 22 pounds of crawfish, some side dishes, and beer. The crawfish soon arrived, and the plate was almost as big as the table. Sandra rolled up her sleeves and immediately dug in. She also poured beer for herself and Micah."I need to drive, so I can't drink," said Micah."Don't worry. We can just call for a driver. Let's drink together. It's no fun drinking alone."After saying that, Sandra picked up her glass and took a big gulp.She even put her feet up on the chair while eating, displaying her carefree demeanor.It was Micah's first time seeing a female celebrity who was unconcerned about her image. He suddenly found Sandra's bold and candid character rather adorable.As Sandra savored the crawfish, she paired each mouthful with sips of be

    Trevor was even more handsome up close.He was a gentleman, smiling as he asked, "Can you stand steady?""I should be able to," answered Sandra.Initially, she was standing just fine, but then Trevor helped her. Sandra suddenly felt her legs go weak. Perhaps she could not stand steady now.Trevor helped her to the side and said, "You should sit here for a while. Continue filming when you feel better.""Alright."At that moment, Sandra hated herself for not bringing paper and a pen with her. Otherwise, she would have gotten Trevor to sign an autograph."He's so good-looking!" Sandra exclaimed inwardly.After that, Trevor returned to the stage. Owen dared not make a sound and only glared at Sandra, who innocently pursed her lips.How could Owen blame her? Trevor was the one who wanted to help her, after all. Suddenly, Sandra sensed an unfriendly gaze and instinctively turned to look. She immediately caught sight of Micah's darkened expression, his eyes gleaming with a hi

    Sandra was not embarrassed by Micah's stare. Instead, she flirtatiously blinked at him and asked, "Do you want to join me for a shower?"Startled, Micah averted his gaze and quickly turned away. "Why didn't you close the door when you shower?"Sandra confidently replied, "Why should I close the door? You're not a stranger. Besides, you've seen every part of my body multiple times."Micah could not help but wonder if she was truly a woman. Why wasn't she shy or reserved? Sandra was bolder than any man. Micah gulped nervously before saying, "That's one way to put it. But don't you feel like you're at a disadvantage by letting me see your body?""If you think I'm at a disadvantage, why don't you show me yours? That way, we'll be even." Sandra then beckoned with her finger. "Come here. Let's shower together."At that moment, Micah felt that Sandra was up to no good, like a witch from a fairy tale.After hanging the shirt she requested on the wall, he turned to leave the b

    Sandra burst out laughing after hearing that. She was surprised that Micah had a sense of humor and could crack jokes.Their relationship took another step forward without them realizing it.If it had not been for the filming in the afternoon, Sandra would have wanted to make love with Micah immediately. She wanted to get it done as soon as possible because she had been waiting for this day for too long. After giving birth, she could focus on her career without needing to worry about all these matters anymore.Sandra had made a deal with her parents. They would take care of her child, and she did not need to be involved. The child would grow up and inherit the family business, while she could do whatever she liked and live a carefree life.In actuality, Sandra had no desire to date or marry. She just wanted to be alone.She could find several men to accompany her if she ever felt lonely.Meanwhile, Micah was completely unaware of Sandra's plans. He was even planning to in
