  The sound of keys turning came from outside the door. Gloria quickly packed everything up, wiped his tears, and turned to walk out of the bedroom.

  Patrick walked to the bar counter with a shopping bag in his hands. "The beef is so good today. I picked some and brought you breakfast. Gloria, go wash up and sit down to eat."

  As he spoke, he placed the bag next to the sink, which was filled with many kinds of food. Patrick rolled up his sleeves in front of the sink and started to wash the vegetables.

  Gloria's hands were hanging by her side, behind her back. She clenched her fists so hard that the nails sank deep into her tender palms.

  She raised her head only to see that outside the balcony, the windows had already been equipped with bars, enveloping the large room.

  There was wind blowing, but she felt suffocating.

  Gloria did as she was told silently. He asked her to go wash up and then have breakfast.

  She went to wash up and then sat

      Patrick paused. The next second, he reached out to cover her eyes and then kissed the back of his hand over them. "You mean a lot to me," he said silently.  "Gloria, don't think about running away again. For the rest of your life, you're bound to be with me. You can't get away without my permission."  He had already lost his mind.  He felt bad for her, yet such a feeling was surpassed by his longing to keep her with him.  After everything was over, she said, "I hate you."  He closed his eyes. When he opened them, he suppressed the pain in them and said, pretending that he didn't care, "Whatever."  He thought, 'You can hate me. Even though you want to hate me, I'm the only one you are going to hate.  I don't care about anything else, as long as I'm the only one in your world. You may choose to love me or hate me as you want.'  It was just that the moment she said she hated him, he felt his heartache killing him.  The day of Harr

      In the ward, Patrick took a chair and sat down. Opposite him was Harry.  "She lied to me and came to donate her bone marrow to you."  Patrick said, breaking the silence.  Harry turned pale and gradually despaired. He said, "I'll go find her! I won't force her to donate her bone marrow!" He stood up and was about to leave.  "Gloria was injecting G-CSF. I took her home."  Harry calmed down after hearing that.  "The donor?" Harry was puzzled.  "Your brother."  Harry did not know what to say for a moment.  "Your brother's match result was a fake. I've known this for a long time. But Gloria doesn't care about it, so I do nothing."  Harry wanted to say something. He found that Patrick was so indifferent. Patrick knew the truth, yet he chose to stand aside and watch the farce.  "You know Gloria went to the bone marrow bank. Ever since she found out about your condition, she's been asking around to find a suitable donor. I

      Smoke came out from the gap in the door.  Instantly, Hank's expression changed. He shook off Mandy, who was pulling him, took out his key, and opened the door. "Luna Gloria! What is going on?"  Before he finished speaking, he choked on the thick smoke and coughed violently.  Mandy rushed in. "Gloria, don't scare me! Don't tell me that you want to kill yourself!"  Unfortunately, the smoke was too thick, and the flames were everywhere.  Hank immediately called the police and tried to rush in.  A figure passed him quickly and rushed in.  In the blink of an eye, the figure had already rushed into the thick smoke.  "Alpha Patrick! You can't go inside!  "It's too dangerous!"  Hank shouted, but Patrick turned a deaf ear. He looked around the room through the smoke, but Gloria was nowhere to be seen.  He immediately rushed to the bedroom door, but the door could not be opened.  "Gloria! Open the door! Gloria! Open the

      Half a month had passed. Patrick didn't appear in front of her again. Occasionally, Hank would come back to take a change of clothes and then leave in a hurry.  Apart from being confused, the guards in the pack became increasingly serious.  Gloria didn't know what had happened.  One day, the dark iron gate of Alpha's villa opened again. She saw the familiar Bentley driving in from the second floor from a distance.  She looked at the car and fell into a daze.  Finally, he came back.  She retracted her gaze and did not know how to face him.  Just as she was lost in thought, Kevin went to her door and invited her to meet Alpha respectfully.  She wanted to ask if she could refuse.  However, Kevin turned around and left directly.  It was no use delaying. She still went downstairs.  Gloria gave a self-mockery chuckle. However, her smile faded quickly. As she got thinner, her face seemed to be sunken.  She noticed a

      "Don't move. I just want to look at you," Patrick whispered. Gloria only felt that it was strange. When did he learn to be gentle?  When she raised her eyes to look at him, she was seized by his eyes. His eyes were like black holes as if swallowing her up. Intense affection seemed to be about to burst out of his eyes in a second.  She had never experienced this before.  She had never seen Patrick like this before.  Before she ran out of patience, he released her.  He took a step back, took out a piece of paper from his pocket, and handed it to her. "Don't you want to leave? I'll let you go."  She took the paper and found it was a divorce agreement.  As her gaze slid down, Patrick had already signed his name.  For a moment, she became even more confused.  He had done everything he could to force her to be with him, but now he had taken out the divorce agreement.  She didn't understand.  Gloria looked at Patrick, her

      Outside a VIP ward in the hospital, an unexpected figure appeared.  "Let him in." In the ward, Patrick nodded.  The door opened, and Ellison walked in.  "You're really well-informed," Patrick said coldly, his lips pale.  "I have my sources. No matter how well you hide it, you can't guarantee that your subordinates won't give themselves away," Ellison said calmly.  Patrick smiled, "You don't have to be in such a hurry even though you covet the Hammond Group. After I die, it will be all yours."  "Come on." Ellison sat down on a chair. "If you die, all your assets will be given to her."  Although he didn't say who she was, Patrick, who was lying on the bed, had a glint in his eyes. "You know me well."  "No." Ellison waved his index finger. "It just so happened that I saw a lawyer walk out of the hospital. That lawyer was hired by you personally to serve you and the Hammond Group."  "Did you find me just like that?" Patrick asked.

      "Look, you're hesitating." Christine was like an invader. She pursued further and didn't let Gloria go. "I just asked you if you still loved him, but you hesitated. Do you really know yourself?  "Gloria, in my opinion, you are running away from him. Three years ago, you tried everything you could to escape. Now, you have made no progress at all. You are still escaping. Will you really be at peace at Waikiki Beach? I will be blunt. If you can only remain calm on Waikiki Beach, it means that you have never been calm."  Gloria trembled, and her face paled. "Stop it! Enough!"  Christine's words echoed in her mind. She wanted to press the pause button but there was simply none.  "Gloria, Waikiki Beach is not a pure land. The peace you think is just your escape," Christine said seriously.  Christine should not have said this, but she saw some things that the people in the police station did not see.  She saw Gloria's hesitation.  During the thre

      Gloria picked up the apple from the stable and quietly peeled it. Not long after, the peeled apple was handed to Patrick.  The apple emitted a fragrance. Patrick didn't believe what was happening. He didn't dare to take the apple.  He didn't know if the apple would disappear the moment he took it.  "When will the operation be carried out?" Gloria went straight to the point. She held the peeled apple in her hand.  Patrick immediately became alert. He was a little nervous. "Who told you?"  "Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?" She asked again, ignoring his nagging.  "The day after tomorrow." He stared at Gloria. In fact, she was more stubborn than him. If she didn't get an answer, she wouldn't give up.  Gloria nodded and stuffed Patrick. "Are you not eating it? I peeled it for you."  Patrick felt warm in his heart. He had never shown his weaknesses, but now felt tears well up in his eyes. One could even see that his eyes turned red. He

    "So you did plan this with him!" Cline's cold, emotionless voice came from above Luana's head, making her pause for a moment."I didn't.""Then how did he know you were here?""I'm not sure, maybe it's because..." Her explanation was cut short by Cline's cold interruption."Stop making excuses. Getting your bag back wasn't just to contact him, was it?"Seeing Cline's stubborn and indifferent expression, Luana fell silent.He had already made up his mind that she had contacted Calvert to pick her up. No amount of explanation would convince him; it was futile."He comes to pick you up as soon as you're recovering. If that's not premeditated, then what is it?" Cline's distrust and relentless questioning left Luana feeling exhausted.She took a deep breath and replied indifferently, "Yes, I did arrange with him. The day I could walk again, I asked him to come and get me."Hearing her admission, Cline's lips curled into a col

    "Remember to use the scar-removing medicine," Eva said. With her delicate and elegant appearance, she was the epitome of beauty—her face couldn't afford to be marred by scars.Eva nodded in agreement and left with her medical bag.As the dean of a private hospital, her schedule was usually quite busy.Had it not been for Cline, it would have been nearly impossible to get an appointment with her.Thinking of Cline, Luana felt a lump in her chest.She couldn't understand his intentions. He was about to get married to his fiancée, yet he kept her locked up at home.Did he want Runa and yet couldn't bear to let go of her?If that was the case, Cline was being incredibly greedy.Luana glanced at the floor-to-ceiling windows. At some point, the sky had darkened and a heavy downpour had begun.The weather matched her mood perfectly, prompting a deep sigh from her.As she sat on the bed, hugging her legs and

    "Only a day apart, and you're already missing each other so much. It seems your old flame has been rekindled?"Faced with his sarcastic remark, Luana didn't bother to explain. She simply lowered her long eyelashes, hiding the discomfort in her eyes.Seeing her silence, Cline's face turned even colder. His grip on her chin tightened uncontrollably."Didn't you say you didn't love him anymore? Why are you rekindling your old relationship?"Luana endured the pain in her chin and forced a smile at Cline."If I can be your lover for years without loving you, why can't I rekindle my relationship with him?"It wasn't clear whether it was the first part of her sentence that choked Cline or the latter that left him speechless, but it made him so angry that he couldn't find words.Luana glanced up at him and saw his usually frosty, charming eyes gradually turn bloodshot. Her heart jolted, but she quickly suppressed the involuntary feelings that

    Calvert seemed to have lost the strength to speak, only managing a faint nod.Clarissa knew his stubborn nature from childhood. Trying to persuade him to leave would be futile. So she steeled herself and told him the truth."Every time Luana is taken away by Cline, she won't be back in less than two or three days. You can't just keep squatting here, can you?"Judging by his reaction, it seemed he already knew who Luana had sold herself to back then.Since that was the case, there was no harm in telling him the truth. He wouldn't stand a chance against that man anyway.Clarissa's words hit Calvert like a sledgehammer, delivering a fatal blow."Every time?" he asked incredulously, his bloodshot eyes slowly turning towards Clarissa. "For these five years... she's been with Cline?""Mm-hmm," Clarissa replied indifferently. That single word, however, almost caused Calvert to collapse.He had thought she had only sold herself once, b

    Hearing this, Luana felt even more guilty. "Clarissa, he got hurt trying to save me. Could you tell him to go back to the hospital first? I'll come to see him in a few days."Clarissa latched onto the key phrase. "Save you? What's going on?"Luana briefly explained the incident with Travis's private revenge.Upon learning the truth, Clarissa shouted that she wanted to teach Travis a lesson.However, upon hearing that Cline had already dealt with Travis, she immediately fell silent."So... you're with Cline now?"Luana could only nod in affirmation, not daring to hide anything from Clarissa.Clarissa sighed deeply and muttered, "What a complicated relationship," before hanging up the phone.She put her phone in her pocket and, carrying a large pot of corn chowder, walked towards the entrance of the small apartment.She had been excited to bring the soup to Luana to help her regain her strength, but as soon as she stepped

    After Eva left, Cline glanced towards the guest bedroom and noticed the door was ajar. His expression darkened immediately.He unconsciously quickened his pace and entered the room, only to see Luana adjusting the IV drip.Her small, palm-sized face showed no significant emotional fluctuation. She remained as gentle and well-behaved as before.She even smiled at him when he entered, which dispelled his doubts.The volume of his conversation with Eva hadn't been loud enough for her to overhear.Cline subconsciously let out a breath of relief and sat down beside her bed, asking, "Feeling better?"Luana nodded and replied, "A bit better."Then, they fell into silence. The atmosphere was somewhat awkward.Seeing that Cline had no intention of leaving, Luana couldn't help but speak up, "Mr. Moriarty, could you help me find my bag?"Her bag had been left in the banquet hall at the Beverly Hills Hotel. Her phone and other belon

    Cline finally put down the vegetable salad and picked up a napkin to wipe the corners of her mouth.In the five years she had been with him, he had never taken care of her like this. Luana was utterly shocked.She stared blankly at the man in front of her with her clear, innocent eyes, feeling as if all of this was surreal.Cline, however, didn't seem to find anything amiss. He calmly wiped her mouth with the napkin.After cleaning her up, he took out his phone and called Eva. He asked Eva to bring medical equipment to the villa.Hearing this, Luana quickly snapped out of her daze and said, "I'll be fine with just some rest. There's no need to trouble Dr. Eva."Cline glanced at her coldly, his tone domineering and brooking no refusal. "Whether it's troublesome or not, I'm the one who decides."Luana had no choice but to keep quiet and let him arrange everything...When Eva pushed a cart full of instruments into the room, Cline

    Cline coldly interrupted him, "No meeting."Russell immediately seemed a bit embarrassed. "Mr. Moriarty, he is, after all, the CEO of Coburn Group. Right now, people from Coburn Group are constantly asking me for him. I can't keep him locked up forever..."Russell's meaning was clear—he could withstand the pressure for a while, but not for long.Cline's face darkened as he thought for a few seconds, and finally relented, "Let him go."He then hung up the phone directly and looked at Luana, who was examining him.In fact, Luana had already guessed who he was talking about and didn't ask.As long as he was willing to release Calvert, she could thank him later once she had recovered a bit.Cline stared at the IV drip for a while until the liquid in the bottle was completely gone, then he helped her remove the needle.Luana glanced at the three bottles of medicine still on the side. Logically, they should be administered one
