"Alright, Luna, I don't have time to blabber on with you."I need to get changed now. After all, now that I am Jim's future fiancée, I need to look my best for every occasion."At the mention of this, Charlotte suddenly recalled something and snickered, "By the way, Luna, do you still think my face has something to do with the drug you stole for me?"Let me tell you this: that's not the case at all."After six years, even your face that Malcolm ruined could be restored through plastic surgery, so why would my face remain in its ugly, burned state?"I had faked my burns to trick you into taking pity on me, and never had I ever thought an idiot like you'd fall for it—"Before she could finish her sentence, Luna furrowed her brows and hung up the phone.A triumphant smile spread across Charlotte's face when she heard the dial tone.After putting down the phone, she turned and went into the walk-in closet.Sitting in the gigantic closet, Charlotte placed her hands behind her head

Jim furrowed his brows when he heard this familiar voice. "Are you Bonnie?""I am, and you are…"Before she could finish her sentence, Bonnie lowered her voice and asked, "Are you Jim?""Yes, it's me." Jim lowered his head to glance at the time.It was 8 a.m.According to what he knew of Christopher, he was a night owl and would not be awake yet at this hour.However, at a time like this, Bonnie had answered his phone, which meant that…they had spent the night together.As soon as he thought of this, Jim's breath caught in his throat.A split second later, he changed his mind.Since Bonnie was Christopher's girlfriend, it would not be strange for them to spend the night together."What are you doing, calling Christopher so early in the morning?" Bonnie frowned when she noticed that Jim did not say anything else, and she turned to glance at Christopher, who was still sleeping on the couch. "Christopher isn't awake yet, so I'll ask him to call you back as soon as he wakes up."

Bonnie clutched her abdomen and whimpered as tears streamed down her face, "It hurts. It hurts so much."At this point, she could not even tell if the pain was of a physical origin or was it emotional.Maybe it was both.Christopher was shocked to see Bonnie like this.Without even having the time to think, he quickly helped Bonnie back into the room and sat her down on the sofa. Then, he began inspecting her wound.Just as he had guessed, the wound was already infected.Even though he had tried to clean it the night before, it was still too late.Christopher exhaled and grabbed Bonnie's hand. "I'm calling a cab right now. You have to go to a hospital immediately."Even though he was capable of helping Bonnie clean and heal her wounds at home…Luna was right; he should not have used Bonnie's physical pain to his advantage to teach her a lesson.As soon as he thought of this, he took the phone from Bonnie, and as soon as he held it in his hands, he suddenly realized that she h

The entire car fell silent for about two seconds.A split second later, Bonnie let out a somewhat awkward laugh as she stared out the window. "Don't joke around."How could she date another man just to get back at her boyfriend?She was not someone who could not survive without a man.As the CEO of Craig Group and the sole heiress to the Craig family fortune, why would she resort to such means to get revenge on Jim?Even though this was what her true thoughts were, Bonnie still curled her lips into a polite smile and said, "Christopher, I don't like you that way, so I don't think it's fair to start dating you just to get back at Jim for abandoning me."Christopher narrowed his eyes and replied in a low voice, "What if I'm willing to let you do that?"He grabbed Bonnie's arm and added, "Bonnie, I'm willing to put up an act with you."Maybe, just maybe, things would turn out just the way he wanted.Christopher had grabbed Bonnie's arm too tightly, and she immediately turned arou

Charlotte narrowed her eyes and quickly grabbed Jim's hand. "Don't you agree, Jim?"Jim finally snapped out of his daze and shifted his gaze away from Bonnie and Christopher. "I'm happy that Christopher finally met someone he likes, but I don't think…this woman is right for him."He and Christopher had grown up together.When he first met Number-9 at the orphanage, Christopher was immersed in his research of alternative medicine.After he had grown up and brought Number-9 home from the orphanage, Christopher was still immersed in his research of alternative medicine.Six years ago, when Charlotte was tricked by Heather and was forced to leave Merchant City, Christopher was still engrossed in his research.All of a sudden, the young Christopher, who had been absorbed in his love for medicine for all these years, had finally fallen in love with a woman.Jim should have been happy for him.However, his first impression of Bonnie was their encounter a day before, when she had trick

"Charlotte."Jim could tell that Charlotte was behaving a little strangely. He furrowed his brows and lifted her chin, forcing her to meet his gaze. "Don't you like Harvey?"There was a hint of questioning in his gaze, accompanied by hostility and coldness.His gaze was so sharp that it felt like it would penetrate all her thoughts and reach her deepest desires.She was a little terrified of this and did not dare to meet his eyes. Instead, she turned her head away and said, "I never said I don't like him."She sniffed and continued, "I'm just scared he won't like me…"After all, I had left Merchant City not long after he was born, and now that he's already six, I'm worried he won't accept me…"With that, she wiped her tears away and added, "I'm sure that he won't like me, and I…""Of course he will." A hint of pain shot through Jim's heart as he watched Charlotte cry. He pulled her into his arms and said in a low, melodic voice, "Don't worry about all this; leave it to me."As

"Now that Jim has lost all his memories of his past, every day feels like torture to him, so I decided to bring him here for a checkup to see if anything can be done to retrieve his memories."With that, she reached out and snaked her arm around Jim's taut waist as she added, "Not only that, but there are plenty of deceitful women out there who, knowing that Jim has lost his memories, try to trick him into thinking he had been disloyal and promiscuous over the last six years."These women are certainly quite a pain in the ass," she said, glancing at Bonnie. "Don't you agree, Ms. Craig?"Bonnie stared at Jim's arm, which was draped around Charlotte's shoulder, for a while before finally turning her head away to gaze at the changing numbers above the elevator doors. "You're right. These women who try to steal other people's boyfriends when they are in their most vulnerable states are certainly quite infuriating."Her tone was as icy as the expression on her face. "Because of this, th

Roanne could not help the bitter smile on her face when she heard Charlotte scolding her over the phone. "Charlotte, are you sure you want to talk so loudly to me?"With that, she lifted her head to glance at the butler. "Can you excuse us?"The butler paused for a moment, then got up and left the room.After hearing his footsteps disappear, Roanne finally curled her body into a more comfortable position and said in a low voice, "You still haven't managed to bribe the Landry family butler yet, so how can you talk so loudly to me, knowing you dialed his number to get to me? Do you want him to find out about what we did to Jim?"Charlotte furrowed her brows slightly upon hearing this, and most of her anger dissipated.She was so impatient to know the truth that she let all her rage loose as soon as she heard Roanne's voice. She even forgot that the butler had probably been there when Roanne picked up the phone.However, even after knowing it was her fault, she still tried to put al

At that, he looked at Gwen. "Actually…"Steven found himself unable to finish his sentence. After a long while, he shook his head and smiled. "Forget about it.""Steven…" Gwen looked at him, and her tears fell.Her heart was not made of stone. How could she not know Steven's feelings toward her?She was silent for a long while. In the end, she stood up and slowly walked over to Steven with arms opened wide. "Give me a hug."Steven hesitated for a while, but he still stood up.They hugged."Gwen." Steven hugged her thin figure. "I have to meet you earlier in the next life so I can compete fairly with my brother."Gwen nodded with tears streaming down her face. "Okay."They thus hugged once more. Minutes later…"He's gone," said Stefan.Tears kept falling.They hugged for a while longer before pulling apart. Gwen looked at Stefan with her tear-stricken face.

The next day, Rachel flew from Merchant City to Sharnwick City to diagnose Anne's condition. Theo tagged along as well because he had another identity, Rachel's boyfriend."According to the report, Anne's condition is slowly recuperating." Rachel was relieved after assessing the report. "Although she is very weak, she is going to get better with lots of rest."There is nothing wrong with her vocal cords too. It could be a psychological thing that makes her lose her voice. A knot in her heart that causes it." She looked at Luna, then at John. "Considering all factors, I think that knot is Luna."Rachel continued, "John, I know Luna is the root cause of all these bad things. Being away from Luna, Joshua, and other people is going to guarantee a safer life for you and your family. But have you thought about it from Anne's point of view? Other than you and Sammie, she has her own life and her circle of friends. Never has she blamed Luna for what happened, yet you forced her to leave Lun

It was almost a miracle for Anne to willingly leave the house just to visit him!Robyn, meanwhile, sobbed at the sight.The nurse who accompanied Anne to the ward was puzzled. What was going on with these people?She snuck her phone out of her pocket and took a photo of this surreptitiously. Then, she sent it into the nurse's group chat with the caption, [What a strange family I met today.]The nurses in the group chat began gossiping about this. One of them tagged a fellow nurse named Daisy and said, [Hey, isn't this the guy who saved the old man you're looking after? What a hero!]Daisy was, at this moment, walking into Andy's room to help him change his wound dressing. She saw the message but was not able to type on her keyboard to respond, so she recorded a voice message instead. "Yes, that's the man. What's wrong with his family? What are you guys talking about?"As soon as she finished her sentence, she lifted her head and finally realized that Andy was not there.Instead,

Anne stared at John for a long time before forcibly smiling and told him in sign language, "Robyn didn't return after so long, so I got worried and came by to check on her.""Daddy, Aunt Robyn, are you two hugging?" Sammie asked, blinking innocently as she raised her head in curiosity.John and Robyn turned pale at this.It was understandable for such a young child like Sammie to misinterpret them as hugging, but what would Anne think of this?John leaped off the bed and staggered toward Anne. "Anne, it's just a misunderstanding…"However, he was still so weak that his legs could not hold up the full weight of his body at all, and he almost crumpled to the ground.Quick-witted Robyn managed to catch him before he could fall, but this gesture appeared once again rather intimate to both Anne and Sammie. Sammie furrowed her brow and asked rather indignantly, "Are you hugging again? Daddy, how can you hug Aunt Robyn like this when you've never even hugged Mommy and me like this befor

When the nurse pushed Anne to John's ward, she overheard John and Robyn fighting from the door. The fight was about how John was anxious to return home because he was worried about Anne and Sammie.However, as someone who used to work as a nurse, Robyn knew John should not leave the hospital after being shot by a gun. At least, he needed to stay in the hospital and be observed for 24 hours to make sure that he was fine before leaving the hospital. If an infection happened, John's body would crash easily and he would become weak just like Anne.In the ward, John frowned and talked with a serious tone, "I'm really fine. Get me my clothes so I can go upstairs to thank Miss Andie and go back home immediately. If Anne knows that I'm hurt, she is going to worry. She will easily be suspicious since you haven't gone back home for a long time. What if she worries about me and brings Sammie to the hospital to look for me? Can you bear yourself even just thinking about it? She's weak and Sammie

Sammie's soft and cute babyish voice melted Stefan's heart immediately. It had been quite some time since he actually put a smile on his face. "Hi, there. What's your name and how old are you?"Sammie tilted her head to look at Stefan's handsome face and smiled sweetly, "I'm Samantha but everyone calls me Sammie."Then she did not forget to introduce Anne to Stefan too. "This is my Mommy. Her name is Anne."At this point, Stefan had given all of his attention to Sammie and did not notice Sammie mentioned that her mother's name was Anne. He pinched Sammie's cheek and said, "Your Mommy is not feeling well. You have to be a good girl and take care of her, do you understand?"Sammie nodded seriously and said, "I will.""Alright, sir. I will bring them to where they want to go," the nurse saw Anne signing to her anxiously. She smiled and said, "Don't worry. I will take good care of them."The promise from the nurse gave an assurance to Stefan that they would be well taken off. He smil

This was the first time Anne brought Sammie out. Ever since she escaped from death, she became a different person—a recluse and was afraid of the sun. This situation became even worse after she became mute.The last time she left the house was two weeks ago when she had to go for surgery.However, she worried about John. In the morning, Robyn told her John was hurt and needed to stay in the hospital to rest. However, she had a hard time believing what Robyn said.After spending so many years together with John, Anne reckoned she was the one who knew John the most. If it was a minor injury, John would never want to stay in the hospital. He cared too much about her and Sammie, so he never dared to let her worry about him. Therefore, it just did not sound reasonable if John would stay in the hospital because of a small injury.Furthermore, Robyn had not returned home since the morning, which was nearly three hours since she left the house. After much consideration, she decided to call

Tara fell silent upon hearing this. She bit her lip nervously and shot Gwen a tentative glance. "I didn't mean to offend you, Gwen…" "I know." Gwen let out an exhale and interrupted Tara before she could finish, "I know you meant no harm, but I can't deny that this is something I'm still having trouble wrapping my head around. In the future, neither of you—even you, Luna—should bring this up again." Her love life was such a mess that not even she could unravel the ties, much less expect other people to understand. Tara pursed her lips and did not reply. Luna stared at Gwen in silence for a while before finally saying, "But you have to face this eventually, Gwennie. After all that you've been through with Luke, all of us hope for nothing but the best for the two of you. Even if you avoid it now, you'll have to face the truth eventually. Otherwise, are you planning on spending the rest of your life in this complicated relationship with Luke? Can you bear the thought of not being

Stefan was mildly amused by the look on her face. He extended his arms out in a gesture of defeat and said, "I never intended on ratting you out to Joshua. You three spoke about these secrets in my presence." With that, he shot Andy a rather helpless look. "Don't you agree, sir?" Andy was surprised to be called out all of a sudden. "Of course!" Although Gwen and Luke had been together for a long time, Luke had never much cared for maintaining good relations with his future father-in-law. He always thought his relationship with Gwen did not concern anyone else outside of the two of them. Combined with the fact that Andy had done some hurtful things to Gwen in the past, Luke grew even more disdainful of his future father-in-law. Because of this, he had never given Andy as much as a second glance throughout their relationship and rarely ever addressed him directly like this. The truth was, Stefan had already called out to Andy once before, during their rescue mission the day befor
