When Levian was a child, his biggest wish was to have a little sister.Unfortunately for him, he was the youngest among the Carter brothers.Melody’s birth years later fulfilled his dream of being an older brother. Levian doted on this little sister with all his heart. If racing came first, Melody would come second. Caring for Melody became a responsibility, a habit, and a subconscious act that he would do spontaneously.Levian narrowed his eyes, and pretended to threaten Melody. "Be a good girl, or I’ll take all your dolls away!"Melody laughed after hearing that.She had long passed the age of playing with dolls. She knew that Levian felt sorry for her, and was simply trying to cheer her up.She was touched, and pretended to be frightened. "No, Lev! Please don’t take them away!"Levian folded his arms. "Bad girls must be punished. If Vincent and Andrew found out what happened to you, they’d burn Bayridge into ashes. They assigned me a mission. You’ll put me in danger if—"Lev
From the other end of the phone came the steady tone of what seemed to be a middle-aged woman. "Don't worry. I have everything under control!"Benjamin grinned when he heard that. "I knew I could count on you, little sister. Did you see how arrogant that little bitch was? She was lucky enough to escape last time, but not this time!”Belinda also shouted, "That’s right! We can't let her boss us around anymore. Is she dead?""At such speed, even if she didn’t die, she’d be a paraplegic," Samantha Nolan snorted. "I hired a professional to tamper the car when she wasn't paying attention. The mountain road is rugged and difficult to navigate. Not to mention, it’s raining. No one can help her. “I was also told that she was driving so fast, she didn’t even turn at the corner and the car crashed. She’s probably dead by now!”When Benjamin heard that, he fantasized collecting Melody's corpse, and was overjoyed.Belinda was just as excited.Benjamin looked at his wife. "Hmph! Looks like
Yeah?!Frederick stroked his chest, trying to calm his shock. He thought his life was about to reach an end! His heart was still pounding hard, beating at the rate of at least 120.They had just passed by a gap in the cliff with a damaged fence. The car couldn’t slow down, and rushed straight towards the cliff after making a sharp turn.The brakes failed, but miraculously, Melody managed to make the car turn away from the edge of the cliff. The impact was too much, and it hit the mountain next to them.At the moment of the collision, Frederick almost blacked out. He was sure he was about to see the deceased John Nolan!In the next second, the dust in the sky dispersed. Murmuring "Hallelujah", Frederick opened his eyes, expecting to see heaven. However, what he imagined didn’t come to be. He was still alive!Melody had successfully turned the tide. With Levian’s assistance, the car didn’t collide into anything. The billowing dust made it seem like a terrible accident. In actual fa
Levian didn’t notice the subtle change in Melody's expression.He wanted to say something, but a sudden phone call interrupted him. "Hello? Okay, just wait there. I'll be there in a minute."Levian hung up the phone, and picked up Melody's bag. "Mel, let's go home. They’re here to pick us up."—The heavy wooden door of the Nolan Manor was slowly pushed open, and the first person to cross the threshold was a graceful figure.Simon greeted Melody respectfully. "Welcome home, Miss."Melody nodded in response. "Simon." Following Melody was a tall and handsome young man. His eyebrows were thin and sharp, and he exuded the aura of a romantic gentleman. Simon was stunned for a moment. Upon taking a closer look, he was overcome with joy. "Mr. Levian? Are you Mr. Levian?"Levian often stayed in the Nolan Manor when he was a child. The servants recognized him immediately, as did Simon. Levian lost contact with Simon after moving abroad three years ago, so Simon was so excited to se
Melody studied the man with a calm gaze, unruffled.Levian clapped, chuckling. Melody was trained in combat, and had mastered all the techniques taught to her. It was a shame she had to use them on this filthy ruffian. What a waste! He should get her a new pair of shoes. They had been dirtied by that ruffian, after all. That man's face was twisted in pain. When he saw Melody's expression, he shook violently.He quickly realized that Melody wasn’t joking around. Immediately, his courage vanished. He no longer dared to flirt with her, and hastily begged for mercy. "Please, please forgive me! Don’t break my leg! Please!"Melody regarded him with a frosty gaze. Instead of moving her feet, she stepped harder. "Tell me, did Benjamin Nolan send you?"The man shook his head repeatedly. "No… No one!"Levian doubted it. He grabbed the man by the collar, and delivered a swift punch. "Tell us the truth!" he barked.The man was speechless. More and more bruises marred his face, and h
The pain of being suffocated by the thick smoke during the explosion, and the people's mournful cries for help, remained vivid in Melody’s mind.Remembering them, her hatred surged. The emotion was so potent, it almost drove her crazy.Despite that, Melody didn’t lose her mind. Although Benjamin was guilty, Walter was still suspicious of wandering around her.Levian thought the same. "Enough about Benjamin. What about you? What did you do?!""Nothing!" Walter wiped his face, and sighed. "Benjamin knew I’m good with cars, so he approached me. I was in urgent need of money, but even so, I couldn’t harm my cousin. I refused his offer. I came to see if he found someone else. I wanted to help, but I couldn’t let Benjamin know. I followed you just in case you need me, and here I am."He sounded sincere, and tears were streaming down his face. He seemed to be innocent. Levian and Melody listened, but neither showed any emotions.Walter started to approach Melody, and tried to play the
Most of the servants had served the Nolan family for years.Aside from them, Simon had selected a particular group of servants who were agile and quick-witted. They dragged Walter out of the manor before he could do anything else.Despite that, Melody still didn’t look good. She looked at the wrinkled tablecloths, the sofa, the upturned carpets, and the tiles Walter had stepped on.Melody was a bit of a germaphobe. Home was her most private place, her sanctuary. Only relatives and her guests could touch her things.To say Walter was deplorable was underestimating it. Melody wanted nothing more than to throw away everything contaminated by him!Levian could see through her thoughts. Seeing her frown, he rubbed her eyebrows gently and comforted her. “If it makes you uncomfortable, I’ll take care of the mess for you.” Having said that, he called his assistant with instructions to replace the items."Get me something from Graci. A brand new set of living room furniture, and a white
The maid glanced at Luke and wanted to turn away, but then her eyes fell on Christopher.What a handsome man!In his gray plaid suede suit and black tie, Christopher looked impeccably elegant and noble. The maid had been working at Nolan Manor for a while and had met her share of people, but it was the first time seeing such a stunning man.Her eyes were glued on Christopher.The maid grew excited. She didn’t bother paying attention to Luke, and instead made a beeline straight for Christopher."Hello, sir! Do you need any help?"Christopher looked at her coldly. "I’m here to see Miss Nolan. Where is she?"Christopher replied vaguely, not telling the maid the purpose of his visit.The maid thought Christopher was a wealthy businessman come to discuss company matters. Either way, she had quite the imagination on her. He was ridiculously good-looking, with pronounced brows and deep eyes. The more she looked at him, the more amazed she was. "I’m sorry, sir. Miss Nolan is a little
Luna nodded solemnly.Levian smiled, and rubbed her head. "Thanks for considering. I appreciate it."He took out his phone, and typed something.Luna watched curiously, and leaned forward to take a look. She was stunned when she saw that he had posted their photo on Facebook.She said quickly, "Delete it before they see it!"She regretted telling him that.Levian put the phone back into his pocket, and hugged her. "Everything's going to be fine. Don't worry."Luna understood his intentions, and said nothing."I promised you I'll never let you down. That's not the reason for you to be my secret lover. I don't have to please my fans. I'm rich. I'm a professional racer, not a gigolo."Levian words sounded so sincere, Luna was touched. She raised her head to look at him, stood on tiptoes, and kissed his lips.Levian was stunned. He narrowed his eyes slightly, and smiled. "You amaze me, Luna.""Huh?" Luna looked at him confusedly."You’re brave enough to kiss me now."She blush
The sales assistant grabbed the old lady’s hand, and demanded, "You must pay for this dress!"Levian grabbed the sales assistant's wrist, and threw her to the side. The sales assistant staggered a few steps away due to the force."That’s not how you should talk to an elder."Luna stood before the old lady, and looked at the sales assistant coldly.The commotion attracted the crowd. The sales assistant looked panicky."It’s none of your business!" the sales assistant yelled, staring angrily at Luna and Levian.Luna blocked the old lady from the sales assistant's sight.The sales assistant observed them, and said sarcastically, "Tourists, huh? Mind your own business."Levian stared coldly at her. The sales assistant was frightened by Levian’s gaze."It seems your parents didn't teach you good manners. I don't mind teaching you today," he said coldly.The sales assistant shuddered. She had seen all kinds of people in the store, and could feel the pressuring aura of Levian.Her
Luna and Levian saw him, and smiled.After noticing their gaze, McCain's expression returned to normal. He walked toward them casually."Luna, did you sleep well last night?" he asked with a gentle smile.Luna was disgusted by his smile, and responded coldly, "Yeah."Levian grinned playfully, and said, "How about you? You looked tired."McCain’s smile froze. He looked a little panicky, and made an excuse to leave. "It's almost time. Let's find our seats."He left quickly afterward.Luna stared at him coldly. McCain looked weird to her."Why are you staring at him? Charmed?" Levian asked. He seemed jealous.Luna looked at Levian, and smiled, "Yeah, by you."Levian’s smile widened.McCain left the building and called Matt, but Matt didn’t answer. He gripped the phone, tightly and cursed under his breath.-A spotlight shone on a man, who walked to the stage under applause.Luna also clapped."That’s Gerald Bell, the president of Bell Group, the leading Group in Franconia,"
Luna opened the door, and saw Levian leaning against the door frame with a helpless expression."What's wrong?"Levian shrugged. "The door lock of the smaller bedroom is broken. I can't get in."Luna glanced at the smaller bedroom, then looked at Levian suspiciously. "You didn't break it, right?"Levian immediately retorted, "Of course not!"Luna stared at him doubtfully.Levian touched his nose, and said in disappointment, "I'll take the sofa, then."Luna pondered, and whispered, "The master bedroom is enough for both of us."She couldn’t bear to let Levian sleep on the sofa in the living room. Besides, she trusted him.Levian smiled, lowered his head, and kissed her forehead. "Thanks, Luna."Luna blushed, and her heartbeat accelerated. She was curious, how did Levian know that?Levian put his arm on Luna's shoulders, and entered the master bedroom."You go take a shower first," he offered."Okay."Luna walked to the bathroom with her clothes. Not long after, the sound o
Benito looked at Juan, and winked at his subordinates. His subordinates walked toward the Hellers."I want to know who sent them," Benito commanded in a deep voice.The Hellers were terrified, and spilled everything.One of Benito's subordinates walked to Benito. He nodded politely to Levian, and reported in a low voice, "A man named McCain sent them."Levian's expression changed.He knew it!"What should we do with them?" Benito's subordinate asked.Benito looked at Levian, and asked, "Levian, what do you say? I can keep McCain under custody.""Teach them a lesson, and make them cooperate," Levian said with a dangerous grin. "As for McCain, I have a plan for him."He looked at Luna in the car. McCain would never take the risk if he actually had feelings for Luna and cared for her. He wondered if he was McCain's target, or if this had something to do with the business summit."Okay," Benito said. He turned around and commanded his subordinates, "Take care of them and make the
The cemetery was ahead."Levy, they slowed down," Luna said. She frowned, confused.Levian quickly turned the steering wheel, and made an emergency 180-degree turn.Luna quickly grabbed her seat belt and closed her eyes after seeing the bright lights from the car tailing them. She then looked at Levian in confusion, wondering what he was up to.She was terrified when she saw Levian drive toward that car. They were going to collide! Suddenly, she heard a sharp friction sound, and both cars passed by each other.Levian turned the steering wheel again and circled around that car.He smiled and assured Luna, "Don't be afraid, Luna. Everything will be fine. Trust me."Immediately, Luna was calm.The driver of the car tailing them seemed irritated by Levian's provocation; he sped up, and tried to slam into their car.Levian grinned; he sped up as well, and drove away from that car.The driver seemed to realize something; he quickly slowed down, and turned around to drive out of the
Luna carefully poked Levian's arm.He grabbed her hand, and quickly pulled her toward him, "I'm your boyfriend."He gritted his teeth. No one knew how much he wanted to punch McCain when he saw that slimeball approaching Luna.Luna grinned, amused. "He's just a friend. You're my sweetheart."Levian was the best! No one deserved her attention except him.Hearing that, Levian was pleased and smiled. He put his hand against Luna's palm, their fingers intertwined.The driver suddenly braked when passing through an alley, and their bodies leaned forward."What happened?" Luna asked. She looked anxiously at Matt, the local driver she and Levian hired."Something ran through just now," Matt explained while unbuckling his seat belt. "I wonder what that was."He left the car and walked around.Luna heard a meowing, and saw a black cat pass by. She pointed in the direction, and asked, "Was it that cat?"Matt looked in the direction of her finger. "I don't see any cat. Probably a stray
Levian looked handsome and gentle under the spotlight. He took the microphone, and said slowly, "It's my honor to deliver my speech today. This summit brings together business talents from all over the world..."Levian kept his eyes on Luna as he spoke, and she concentrated on his speech.They noticed each other's gaze, and smiled.McCain tried to chat with Luna but noticed her gaze. He bit his lip, jealous. He quickly took his phone, and showed it to Luna, "Hey, Luna, I found the emails."Luna was too focused on Levian's speech, so McCain’s interruption annoyed her. She grabbed it, and read the emails. While Luna was reading the email, McCain looked at Levian and smirked. Levian's expression changed, and he spoke faster.Luna briefly read two emails. They were McCain's remarks about music, and how much he missed her. She breathed a sigh of relief when she didn’t find any confession.Still, she was a bit moved by the memories. She returned the phone to McCain, and said, "Than
Levian and Luna turned around, and saw a tall man with blond hair and blue eyes."You look so beautiful today! It took me a while to recognize you."He observed Luna as he spoke.Luna frowned, uncomfortable with his gaze, and asked politely, "Do you know me?"That man was a stranger to her."Oh, don't you remember me?" The man clutched his chest as if he was hurt, and sighed. "I'm McCain. We were in the same music camp for three months, when you were seventeen."Luna thought for a while, and finally remembered him. She nodded, and smiled politely. "Oh, yes. It’s nice to meet you again.""I'm so glad I come. It's good to see you again." McCain smiled happily.Levian stared at McCain with a frightening expression that hinted at anger.Music camp, huh?He could sense McCain's intention.Luna noticed Levian's expression, and said to McCain politely, "The party is about to start. Let's take our seats."She wanted to leave, but McCain blocked her way. "I missed you so much. I l
