  After driving for a while, Ellison stopped at a remote store.

  "Look around. If you can't pick up a favorite cup here, we will go to another store." Then Gloria sat down on a recliner.

  Ellison pretended to focus on picking up a cup, but he was glancing at Gloria from the corner of his eye.

  "Anything you like?" Gloria noticed that Ellison was looking at her.

  "Yes," Ellison pointed and said, "I want this set."

  After stepping out of the store, Ellison found that the red marks on the back of his hand had disappeared. He rubbed that part hard with his back facing Gloria. He looked at the bruise and felt much more satisfied.

  Gloria led the way in front. She asked, "What kind of lounge chair do you want?"

  "I think yours is good." Ellison stared at her and smiled.

  Gloria nodded. "Alright, I'll take you to that store. Things there are a little expensive, but the quality is good."

  "Okay." Ellison agreed.

  They didn't spend

      In the dead of night, Gloria went to the most remote house of the B&B. The look on her face was cold, yet the sadness in her eyes was more than obvious.  "I'm here to see you," she said in a hoarse voice, yet there was no one else in the house except her.  The room was dark, but she knew it so well that she walked forward untroubled.  She fumbled on the table, lit a candle she found, and it illuminated the picture on the table.  It was a portrait of a girl. She looked at it and said, "Mica, I miss you very much."  Mica was smiling brightly in the portrait. Gloria did not have Mica's picture. She asked a wandering artist who traveled to Waikiki Beach to draw Mica's picture based on her memory.  Gloria clenched her fists tightly, feeling bad.  "Mica, if you still don't show up in my dreams, I'll forget your face soon." Gloria didn't want to say that she was lonely, but it was the truth.  She missed Mica, but Mica didn't appear in h

      Gloria walked forward as fast as she could. She could not move quickly due to her legs, yet right now, she reached the stage within just a few seconds.   Gloria squeezed through the crowd, though she wasn't strong to begin with. She pushed her way to the front of the stage and said, "Ellison! Get down!"   Ellison's gaze fell on her face. He looked at her and pulled off his belt in a fit of pique.   He smiled at her, as if he was saying to her, "Are you going to drive me away? You say it's best for me. What do you know about what I want?"   "Ellison! I don't want to bet anymore!" she shouted at the stage in a hoarse voice, sounding like a duck.   "It's too late." Ellison's lips moved. He had made up his mind. Instead of leaving, he wanted to win the bet. He wanted Gloria!   Memories surged in Gloria's mind. In her eyes, Ellison right now was just like her in the past!   But Ellison didn't deserve it!   She walked to the center of the stage, b

      In the coffee shop, Brad was staring at the door.   "Alpha Patrick, over here," Brad said as he stood up.   "Where is the photo?" Patrick asked immediately.   Brad immediately took out his phone and said, "Alpha Patrick, take a look."   Patrick couldn't wait as he took over the phone quickly. Then, his body stiffened. He didn't dare look at the photo.   Patrick tightened his grip on Brad's phone. He had searched for so many years, went to various places, and traveled thousands of miles, but now he was suddenly afraid.   He looked down at the photo on the screen. At first glance, he knew it was her.   "Where is she?" Patrick asked urgently.   Brad betrayed Tammy.   Patrick sent the photo in Brad's phone to his mailbox.   Before Brad could say anything, Patrick left like a gust of wind.   Patrick drove while contacting Stewart through mind link.   "Do you know Tammy?" Patrick asked anxiously.   "Why are you looking for

      The next afternoon, Gloria received a text message. Her friend told her that many strangers were looking for her.  Gloria panicked and said to herself, "Calm down. Take it easy. Patrick won't be able to find her."  Gloria immediately called her friends in Hawaii and asked them not to reveal her whereabouts.  Ellison was still living here, and Gloria could not drive him away.  "Aren't you going to ask who I am?" On a sunny afternoon, Ellison stopped Gloria in the corner, who had been hiding from him. He said with certainty, "You are avoiding me."  Gloria raised her head and said, "I'm not hiding from you. I'm doing this for your own good."  "Actually, you're doing this for your own good. You're afraid of being in debt of love, and you don't want to owe anyone. Am I right?" Ellison said angrily.  "Is there anything wrong with that?" Gloria glanced at Ellison indifferently. "Is it good for you if I lie to you?"  "I actually hope you can

      Ellison stood on the stairs. He saw Patrick and ran downstairs hurriedly to stop Patrick. However, when he saw Gloria's reaction, he could not take a step.  Gloria came back to life because of Patrick.  "What else do you want to throw at me? I'll get it for you," Patrick said.  Ellison picked up the broom and said, "No need to bother you, Patrick. I happen to be free, and I'll help her."  Hank wanted to stop Ellison, but Danny stopped him.  Hearing Ellison's voice, Patrick looked over and narrowed his eyes. "Ellison."  "Patrick, what are you trying to do?" Ellison stopped in front of Gloria. He handed the broom in front of her and said, "Madam, here you go."  Gloria stared at the broom and asked in confusion, "A broom?"  For a moment, she didn't get it.  She looked at Ellison in confusion.  The corners of Ellison's lips curled into a faint smile. "Madam, drive him out with it."  Gloria had a moment of enlightenment.

      Ellison suddenly stood up and pushed Patrick hard. He said, "Let her go. You are so selfish! Didn't you hear her? Gloria has no intention of going with you!"  Patrick was caught off guard. He had been as fierce as a wolf just now, yet he fell to the ground unexpectedly. Everyone was shocked.  Stewart's face darkened. He rushed forward and helped Patrick up from the ground. He shouted anxiously, "Patrick, are you alright?"  Stewart felt his hands wet. He reached out his hand that held the back of Patrick's head, only to find that it was covered in blood. He was stunned. "What is this?"  Ellison noticed that something was wrong and was about to walk over. Hank ran ahead of him and shouted, "Alpha Patrick?"  Gloria's eyes widened in shock and refused to believe that Patrick had fainted. She said in a trance, "Alpha Patrick, stop pretending. Did you fall just because of a push? Stop kidding me."  Stewart turned to look at her in disbelief. "Patrick

      In the car that headed for the hospital, Patrick woke up.  "You scared me to death. You finally woke up." Stewart was relieved.  Patrick touched the gauze wrapped around his head. He became sober and asked in a hoarse voice, "He hurt me?"  Although it was a question, Patrick raised it with a certain tone.  "You remember it? It seems that you are not seriously injured. No wonder Gloria thought you were pretending to pass out," Stewart ridiculed.  Patrick was depressed. He took a few deep breaths before saying, "Don't blame her."  Stewart couldn't take it anymore. He complained, "You must be sick! You were injured, and she just looked at you indifferently, but you still asked me not to blame her?"  "I'm not sick. I'm soberer than ever. I tortured her with all kinds of methods. It's normal that she doesn't believe me now," Patrick said bitterly. "This may be the punishment from the Moon Goddess."  Stewart was disappointed by Patrick's s

      Patrick returned to the Black Thorn Pack at night. His eyes were bloodshot, and his clothes were stained with early morning dew.  In Alpha's villa, he found Alex who was playing chess.  "Why did you do that?" Patrick's expression was calm. He looked at Alex indifferently.  Ellison had been fighting with Patrick in Waikiki Beach a few days ago. But now, he was playing chess with Alex leisurely.  "Since you want to give up everything for the sake of Gloria, do I still need to leave the Hammond Group to you? You are not my only grandson," Alex answered Patrick while focusing on the chessboard.  Patrick was not angry. He seemed to be measuring Alex's words.  "Up to you." After a moment, Patrick said nonchalantly, "I'll wait and see if you are capable enough to take away the Hammond Group and the Black Thorn Pack from me."  He had worked day and night all these years to avoid the loneliness in his heart. He focused on expanding the territory bu

"Don't worry, she's in my hospital and I'll keep an eye on her. You should prepare some clothes for her to change into. She'll probably need to be hospitalized for a while."Eva's calm voice gave Clarissa some strength.She steadied herself, thanked Eva, and hung up the phone. Then she stumbled into Luana's bedroom.She quickly packed a few pieces of clothing, grabbed some toiletries, and hurriedly drove to the hospital.Eva was in the middle of giving Luana a detailed examination when she saw Clariss

    Clarissa, Clarissa…Luana heard Clarissa's crying voice in a daze. The sound tugged at her heart, making it impossible for her to keep going.She stood in the mist, slowly turning her head, just in time to see Clarissa running toward her."Luana, don't leave. Come back. I still have so much to tell you…"Luana opened her mouth to respond to Clarissa, but no sound came out.Then, fresh oxygen flowed in, easing her suffocated heart.Gradually, the mist dissipated and Clarissa vanished. Luana fell into a deep coma."Dr. Woodward, her heart has started beating again!""Hurry, keep her on oxygen!"Eva saw the flickering data on the ECG monitor and felt her legs go weak.This was the first time she had been so anxious about a patient, fearing that she might die.Her hands were still trembling, too weak to even lift."Dr. Roffe , how's the situation with the back of her head?"Dr. Roffe

    Cline stared coldly at Sidney, his face full of dissatisfaction."Cline, you used to... protect Valda like this too," Sidney said, eyeing him suspiciously up and down.In this world, the only person who could make him lose control of his emotions was Valda.Back then, he had stood up for Valda just like this, even going to any lengths to defend her!Sidney's words hit a sore spot for Cline, making his expression even darker and more irritable."What do you want to get out of this?""I want her dead! Either that, or sell her to a club and make her life a living hell! Otherwise, I'll tell Auntie that you have a special relationship with her!"Upon hearing this, Cline slightly tilted his head and reluctantly slapped Luana.The moment the slap landed, Luana, who was unprepared, lost her balance and fell straight backward—This time, she wasn't so lucky. There was a nail where she fell, which pierced right into the back

    The man had a face with sharp angles, like it was chiseled out of stone, and eyes that were impossible to read.He wore a black suit that accentuated his lean and upright figure, exuding an aura as dazzling as the stars yet tinged with melancholy.After steadying Runa, he didn't immediately remove his hand from her waist. Instead, he looked down at Luana coldly."You dare to lay a hand on my fiancée? Who the fuck are you?"Luana's heart, which had been racing and nearly suffocating with tension, suddenly chilled at the man's indifferent voice.Drenched, with a swollen cheek and disheveled hair, she felt more humiliated by his words than by her appearance.She hugged her shivering arms, lowered her head, and stared lifelessly at her toes, awaiting judgment from these powerful, condescending people."Cline, what are you doing here?"Runa asked, surprised yet more shocked that Cline hadn't let go of her.Cline was always so busy handling affairs—why would he show up at a mall, and in the

    The entrance of the mall was crowded with people coming and going.If someone took a photo or a video, it might harm Luana's reputation.Although the Moriarty family had enough PR skills to deal with the public opinion, it was better not to cause trouble.Thinking of this, Sidney immediately withdrew her hand and gave a signal to the bodyguards behind her.The bodyguards quickly took out a handkerchief, covered Luana's mouth with it, and dragged her towards the restroom.Luana was almost thrown into the toilet stall by the bodyguards. They didn't give her a chance to escape and pinned her down tightly.Sidney and Runa walked in gracefully in high heels.They looked down at Luana as if they were symbols of power."Sidney, is she the one who disrespected you at the hospital?" Runa asked."Yes, she dared to mock me and even threatened to call the police on me. How dare she!" Sidney replied.Runa also glared at Luana fiercely."Luana, I didn't expect you to be so foolish. Do you want to d

    When she saw Gath come out with an angry look on his face, completely different from the cheerful appearance she had seen before, it seemed as if there was a deep-seated hatred between them.Luana did not ask about their relationship, pretending to know nothing, and took out the swelling-reducing medicine to give it to Eva."Eva, apply this. You're so beautiful. You don't want to be scared, do you?" Seeing the injury on Eva's face, Luana felt guilty, as if she were the reason Eva got hit."Thank you," Eva accepted the swelling-reducing patch and applied it to her face, then looked at Luana, who was pretending nothing had happened."You know Gath, don't you?" Eva thought that since Luana and Calvert seemed to have a good relationship, and Gath was Calvert's friend, Luana must know him.Luana nodded but did not ask any more questions.Eva, however, did not mind and openly said, "He's like my brother, but without blood ties. However... the grudges between us run deep."As for how deep th

    After getting some anti-inflammatory and pain-relief medicine from the nurse, Luana returned.She pushed open the door to the dean's office just in time to see Gath pinning Eva against the wall. Luana froze for a moment before quickly backing out and closing the door behind her.She sat down on a chair outside, propping her chin on her hand, her mind racing but unable to make sense of the tangled relationships between them.Inside the dean's office, Eva had regained her composure the moment she saw Luana. She forcefully pushed Gath away."Stay away from me..."Gath, pushed back, straightened his disheveled clothes but kept his eyes fixed on Eva."Does it hurt?" he asked, touching the swollen cheek where she had been slapped, though his eyes held a mocking smile."I thought you'd be quite capable after leaving the Tittlington family, but it turns out you've just latched onto Cline. Though the price seems a bit too high."Eva was

    When Luana heard Sidney's words, she felt insulted, while Eva was filled with fear.Eva quickly stepped forward, blocking Luana and apologizing on her behalf, "Miss Preston, this patient didn't know who you were, which is why she spoke to you like that. I'm really sorry. Please, just let her go."Eva's submissive pleading made Luana feel even more guilty, and she started to say, "Eva..."She wanted to tell her not to lower herself for her sake, but Eva interrupted her, "Miss, you're just here to see me for treatment. We're not close. If you say anything else that upsets Miss Preston, I won't treat you anymore!"Eva was trying to distance herself from Luana, seemingly to protect her.Luana understood her intentions and kept quiet.Although she thought the woman in front of her was too arrogant, Eva seemed terrified of her. To avoid causing more trouble for Eva, Luana gritted her teeth and endured it.Seeing this, Sidney's lips curled i

    Luana nodded in agreement. "The key issue still lies with his family."This realization struck Clarissa, who hurriedly said, "I'll go to his hometown and ask some neighbors. That should clear things up."Luana quickly grabbed her hand, warning, "Don't go alone. It's too dangerous."Who knew what the situation was like in Albert's hometown? If Clarissa went alone and got into trouble, what would happen?Luana tried to calm her down, saying, "Don't worry. I think Angela can't keep her cool for long. When we find a chance when Albert isn't around, you just provoke her a bit. She might just lay all her cards on the table."Clarissa thought about it and found it made sense.In the ward just now, Angela had almost lost her temper several times. If it weren't for Albert holding her back, she might have already jumped up and confronted Clarissa.It would be safer to approach Angela when Albert wasn't around than to go to his hometown alone.
