Sotiria shook her head profusely. “I’m good! You guys can go yourself.”“Well, since you don’t want to go, I won’t force you, then. Let’s go, Zach,” Lorraine said as she tugged at Zachary’s hand. However, just when they took one step forward, she suddenly turned around and smiled mysteriously at Sotiria. “Tiria, are you not going to congratulate me?” Sotiria pulled the corner of her lips up with difficulty and said, “Happy marriage…”The smile on Lorraine’s broadened. “Thank you!”Ever since Lorraine had learned that Sotiria was Charlotte, her eyes would be filled with a strange light, but Sotiria had never noticed it before because her attention was always on Zachary. However, from the moment Zachary came up to her with Lorraine until he walked away, he had not said a single word to her, nor had he looked at her. Besides, she also felt that Zachary was giving off a different vibe. He was no longer the indifferent, noble, and domineering king he used to be. He seemed more li
Garrison hastily let go of Sotiria’s hand, and his gaze turned cold as he turned to look at Jordan.“Come in.”“Okay.” Jordan stroked her black-rimmed glasses as she walked into the ward and said, “I came right away after your call. I’ve finished the discharge formalities, and the doctor said you can go home now.”Garrison nodded indifferently.Jordan came up to Sotiria and studied her tear-stained face meticulously. “Tiria, I’ve heard about the marriage between Mr. Connor and Lorraine. If you feel like crying, then cry it out. Keeping everything inside will affect your mental health.”Sotiria lifted her brows and acted as if she did not care about it.“What are you talking about, Jordan? What does it have to do with me if they are getting married? Why do I have to cry?”“Tiria…” Jordan patted Sotiria’s shoulder comfortingly. “Alright, then! Their marriage is none of our business. We don’t care about them, and we definitely won’t cry for them!”The three of them then left the h
“Garrison? Can’t you see that my followers are taking pictures of me? Where are you taking me to?“Garrison, let go of me!“Garrison…”Lorraine struggled with all her might, yet she could not break herself free from Garrison’s grip. Garrison grabbed her wrist tightly, pulling her into the city hall.Lorraine’s followers all dared not to stop Garrison when they saw the grim expression on his face.Zachary looked indifferently as Garrison and Lorraine walked further and further away, as if this scene had nothing to do with him.Thump!Garrison kicked open the door of the city hall, startling the group of staff who were talking and drinking coffee inside. One of them even dropped his glass on the floor, releasing a loud “clink” into the air as it smashed into two pieces.After roughly two seconds, a male staff member stood up discontentedly and snarled, “Hey! What the hell is wrong with you? Here is our working space! Who gave you the permission to barge in like this? Get the hell
“Gary, I may hate Charlotte, but she doesn’t even know who she is right now. What’s the point in antagonizing her with this? I don’t know how those people found out about my marriage registration with Zach. They came on their own, you’ve completely misunderstood me.”Just then, Garrison gradually calmed down. Upon careful consideration, marrying Zachary was Lorraine’s long-time dream. Her marriage registration to Zachary was enough to send her into cloud nine. Under these circumstances, she would not deliberately create problems to make Zachary unhappy…However, when he saw Sotiria sobbing in the car, he was immediately placed into a stupor and felt a great urge to make Lorraine pay.He lowered his gaze and looked at Lorraine’s hand. His voice turned gentle. “I overreacted and used a lot of force. Does it hurt?”“Hey! I’m on cloud nine, brother. I feel as if I’m the luckiest girl on earth. I wouldn’t feel any pain if I had to take another knife for Zachary, let alone you grabbi
“Gary!”A million thoughts ran through Lorraine’s head as she gently tugged Garrison’s hand from behind him.“We’ve already come so far, and we can’t turn back now. You need to be more optimistic. You need to think that maybe once Carlie regains her memories, she would have grown to love you after being with you for so long and would have completely forgotten about Zach.”‘Sigh!’Garrison took a deep breath.‘How I wish it would turn out that way! However, I am keenly self-aware. Over the past four years, I would spend time with her whenever I had free time. Even though her heart was drawing closer and closer to me, her feelings for me resembled the love between siblings. I can never seem to sense any romantic feelings from her at all… If God really felt sorry for me and made Carlie let go of Zachary and make her develop passionate romantic feelings for me, I’d do everything in the name of God to repay Him for this blessing!’Clack!Garrison opened the door to leave.Lorraine,
At this time, Lorraine had already gotten into the car with Zachary and drove off. Now that their favorite celebrity had left, the fans immediately dispersed, leaving a few internet celebrities at the venue, taking videos and live streaming.…Lorraine returned to the hospital.When one was depressed, days would pass like years. However, when one was overjoyed, time passed quickly and fleetingly. The day turned into night in the blink of an eye.Zachary, Ivan, and Jebediah had all gone home, leaving Lorraine all alone, standing in front of the window. She held her marriage certificate with Zachary in her hand. Every time she saw her picture with Zachary, she couldn’t help beaming.“I knew you’d be too happy to fall asleep tonight. I was right. It’s almost 1:30 a.m. now, and you’re still drowning in happiness, unable to get over it.”Lorraine only realized that someone had entered her ward when she heard that voice. She didn’t turn around. Instead, she steadily replied, “I thought
Jebediah was overjoyed. “Okay.”He released Lorraine as soon as he said this.Lorraine picked up her marriage certificate first and carefully placed it next to her pillow. Then, she lay on the bed with a slight bend in her delicate and slim legs. “Come on then. However, my stomach area is injured so I can’t take your weight. You need to be careful, so don’t press yourself on me.”Jebediah nodded in surprise.The luxurious special ward bed began to shake.Jebediah placed his strong arms by the sides of the pillow and suspended himself above Lorraine. At first, he didn’t notice anything different. However, he slowly realized that Lorraine wasn’t just smiling up at him, but her eyes were exceptionally gentle…He longed for Lorraine, but Zachary was the only one for Lorraine.Even though he had committed a lot of sins for Lorraines, even though Lorraine had always returned his favor with physical intimacy, every time she “repaid” him, she would show no signs of emotions, as if she
Jebediah couldn’t take it anymore. He suddenly got up and rolled off the bed, then smashed his strong fist against the window.Crash!The strong, metal-like tempered glass shattered, turning into countless pieces of glass, and poured onto the ground like a waterfall.Jebediah couldn’t be bothered with the pain in his hand. He turned around and strode towards the door.The smile in Lorraine’s eyes gradually turned cold as she stared at him, walking further and further away.As soon as Jebediah had left, a nurse who had heard the noise rushed into the ward in panic.“Miss Larson, I heard a loud noise. Did… Ah! The window broke. What happened?”Lorraine shook her head smoothly.“I was fast asleep. I woke up from that loud noise too. When I woke up, I saw that the window was broken. I’d like to know what happened myself.”…“Zachary… Don’t come any closer! Zachary!”Sotiria was startled away from a nightmare. She was dreaming of Zachary again.She wiped away the cold sweat on h
