Lucas felt like he was being abandoned by the entire world.

Chelsey didn't want the house, his money, or him.

The woman who promised she would be there by his side for the rest of his life still gave up on him in the end.

Lucas' hands pressed on Chelsey's back, as if he was trying to meld her into his body so that she truly wouldn't leave.

Chelsey was being hugged so tightly she nearly couldn't breathe. She pushed at Lucas' chest with all her might. "Let me go. Let me … go … "

But Lucas only tightened his embrace. In the end, Chelsey couldn't hold back anymore and slapped him in the face.

Only then did Lucas come back to his senses.

"I'm so sorry!" He quickly let go of Chelsey and took a step back. His gaze was emotional.

Chelsey's eyes were filled with sheer hatred, the kind that came with the urge to kill.

Lucas' lips pulled tight for a moment as he explained, "Thank you for the birthday presents. I just saw them. I like them a lot."

"No need to thank me. I'm just glad you

    "Who is it?" Lucas rose from the bed, a hint of anger in his voice."It's me. Hurry up. We have to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau." Chelsey's voice rang out through the door."Got it." Lucas rubbed his eyes and got out of bed.He was shocked when he saw the tacky patch on the bed.Did he … Goodness!Lucas ran into the washroom to take a shower, feeling embarrassed.He deliberately put on the watch and tie Chelsey had gifted him before going downstairs. The watch was from Patek Philippe, worth over two million. The tie, on the other hand, was a customized Hermès piece worth hundreds of thousands.Lucas didn't understand why Chelsey would gift him a watch and a tie back when he was still blind. He had no use for them at all.Chelsey's heart pounded when she saw Lucas walking out of the elevator dressed smartly, looking quite handsome.Being an ex-military man, Lucas had an especially erect stature. He looked just as good as any model on the runway.Chelsey had already prepare

    Lucas chuckled as he read the sticky note.Chelsey wanted nothing, yet she gifted him a watch worth two million dollars and a tie worth thousands of dollars. She took care of Lucas for three whole years without a single complaint. Meanwhile, he called her a mere caregiver and insulted her by saying that she only married him for money. Lucas felt like the biggest idiot in the world.He must've deeply hurt Chelsey to have made her end things so abruptly. She didn't even want to take anything that was related to him.Lucas sat on the sofa for some time before putting the divorce papers and documents into the safe. He went to the hospital to spend time with his mother, heart feeling empty.Josie still had no clue Lucas and Chelsey had divorced. She hurriedly asked Lucas, "Where's Chels? Why isn't she with you today?""She's busy, so she won't be able to make it." Lucas put up a relaxed act in front of his mother and teased, "Which one of us is your actual child, Mom? Why do I feel

    Lucas didn't have much of an appetite when he was eating lunch.His assistant, Mark Gringo, was looking at his phone beside him. All of a sudden, Mark blurted out, "Who is Mrs. Yates having a barbecue with?"Lucas turned to him questioningly. He then extended a hand, saying, "Give me the phone."Mark handed his phone over obediently.Sure enough, Lucas saw a video clip of Chelsey having a barbecue. Though she didn't reveal her face, it was her voice that spoke in the video, saying, "It's barbecue time!"The table of food looked very appetizing.Mark managed to become friends with Chelsey on social media where Lucas failed.Still not giving up, Lucas glanced at his social media. Chelsey still hadn't accepted his friend request.Lucas asked Mark, "Is this your work profile or personal profile?""Work profile," Mark responded lightly.Lucas returned the phone to him and instructed, "Send me Mrs. Yates' posts to me from now on.""Yes, sir." Mark nodded.After a pause, Mark said

    Lucas' words didn't make Chelsey feel happy. In contrast, she found them ironic.She wasn't able to win Lucas' heart even though she put in three years of her time. What was the point of all this now that they had divorced?Chelsey didn't treat this as Lucas realizing he'd missed out on something good. Rather, she thought he was doing this because he was used to being taken care of by her. He had become reliant on her without any romantic feelings.With a sneer, Chelsey said, "No need. As long as I'm still sane, I'll always choose to be with a man who dotes on me like a princess, not someone who only treats me as some caretaker."Lucas was speechless. Though he had apologized to Chelsey, it was clear his words had wounded her deeply. They were like knives; it hurt regardless of whether the knives remained in or were pulled out of her heart.Chelsey ignored Lucas and continued walking out of the hospital. Timothy was waiting for her right by the road.Timothy was refined and elega

    Chelsey thought of saying some things herself, seeing how enthusiastic Sandra was. She caressed her stomach and said, "You must be devoted to your relationships in the future, baby. Don't be an ass like Lucas, fooling around when he was already in a marriage.""Has Lucas contacted you recently?" Sandra asked."No."Chelsey hadn't been to the hospital either, given she was busy with her designs. Josie did call her a couple of times, but Chelsey only told her she had a job now and didn't have spare time to visit.Josie didn't comment much and just told Chelsey to take care of her health and not overwork herself. She didn't mention Lucas.Sandra grumbled, "Maybe Lucas is getting it on with that lover of his. He doesn't have much to worry about now that he's divorced. They're definitely coupling together now every single day.""Yeah." Chelsey's heart felt desolate and empty.She could face Lucas and Shannon's relationship head-on now. Shannon could return to Lucas' side whenever she

    Chelsey felt irritated at the sight of Shannon, especially with the latter appearing to have the game in her pocket.Shannon looked proud and triumphant."I'm here. What do you want to say? Spit it." Chelsey didn't have the patience to dine with Shannon. The mere presence of Shannon made her lose her appetite.Smiling faintly, Shannon gracefully poured tea from the teapot."I suppose you're thirsty. Have some tea first."Chelsey took a seat across from Shannon. Seeing that Shannon's hand had already recovered, she couldn't resist giving a sarcastic remark. "Your hand healed quite quickly. If it had taken longer, Lucas might have broken my hand."Shannon looked up, her eyes sparkling as she gazed at Chelsey. "You really don't know.""Know what?" Chelsey frowned. She hated being kept in suspense.She preferred people to say everything at once rather than drag things out.Shannon smiled. "Let's talk over our meal."As she said that, she picked up a fork.Chelsey had no interest

    In a daze, Shannon sat back in her chair.She muttered to herself, "Divorced? He actually got divorced ... Then why does he still—"Why did he still want to break up with her?After a momentary daze, Shannon was suddenly filled with hope.Smiling, she stood up and swayed her slender figure."Chelsey, thank you for telling me such an important thing. This meal is on me. Enjoy your meal. I'll take my leave now, bye."Shannon patted Chelsey on the shoulder and left the scene.Chelsey had no intention of eating the food Shannon had ordered. She went to the adjacent room to dine with Sandra.After listening to Chelsey's narrative, Sandra, with a mouthful of grilled lamb chop, widened her eyes. She mumbled unclearly, "Are you saying Timothy sent someone to injure Shannon's hand?""Yeah, that's what Shannon said. But I don't think Tim is that kind of person."In Chelsey's eyes, Timothy was an upright and kind-hearted person who wouldn't resort to such actions.Sandra swallowed the

    Chelsey shook her head. "Forget it. Tim deserves someone better."Even without being pregnant with Lucas' child, she wouldn't be suitable for Timothy.Sandra knew what Chelsey was thinking and tried to advise her. "Times have changed. Remarrying with a child isn't a big deal. Timothy seems like a great guy. He'll treat your child as his own.""My goodness, even lamb chop can't shut your mouth. Eat up. You talk too much." Chelsey fed Sandra a big piece of broccoli to silence her.She wondered what benefits Timothy had given Sandra to have the latter persuade her all the time.After finishing their meal, Sandra drove Chelsey home.In the lobby, they saw a few professional cleaners coming out of the elevator. Sandra casually asked, "Are you going to clean the 45th floor?""Yes, how did you know?" the cleaner asked in surprise."I guessed." Sandra then lowered her voice and said to Chelsey, "Your neighbor is quite quick. They're cleaning the place right after moving the furniture.

    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
