Quintin stared at her facial expression, which changed constantly, but he didn't say anything due to the crowd around them.After leaving the cinema, Quintin finally took her hand and said, "The car is over here."Josephine glanced at him absentmindedly and pursed her lips without saying a word. And
"What are you saying?" Lewis suddenly spoke, interrupting Sierra's incessant chattering. Sierra was taken aback. She stared blankly at Lewis' expressionless face, and her fantasies came to an abrupt halt."Well, since you're divorced now, don't you plan to marry me?""Who told you I got divorced?" L
"Did you kill all the animals I raised?"Damian's reply was devoid of any warmth and was cold as ice. "They were merely livestock. Are you going to sever ties with your own father just because of a few animals?"Quintin clenched his fists tightly, his chest heaving rapidly.Seeing him in this state,
Pausing in his steps, Damian looked back at Quintin.A few seconds later, he replied firmly, "It's a pity that you're my son in this lifetime. You don't have a choice." After saying that, he and his men left in the cars parked outside.Quintin kept his head down. He stared at the ground and remaine
Her fingers touched Quintin's trembling back, feeling him holding back his pain and the utter helplessness he felt. She could tell that he was very despondent at the moment."He's my father. Why would he treat me like this?"Josephine couldn't find the right words to console him, so she could only p
Quintin quickly turned his head and hastily wiped his tears away using his sleeve. He sniffled and forced a smile while saying, "Thank you, though. But this catastrophe happened because of me, so I won't make excuses or shirk responsibility. It may be my father who did it, but it's all on me. After
Very quickly, he returned to the car and handed her the food. "You probably didn't have dinner last night. You're running late now, so at least have this to eat. We're almost reaching your company."Josephine lowered her head and looked at the breakfast in her hand. Quintin had bought her a cup of m
Josephine was stunned. She turned around and looked over instinctively. Sure enough, Lewis was here. He wore a suit as usual, walking toward her with a coat in his hand.Conrad felt relieved seeing him as if he saw a way out. He said, "Sir, Ma-Miss Vance wants to quit her job."Lewis halted in his t
"Daddy …" Serena murmured the two syllables. Then, she beamed brilliantly and repeated the word with more conviction. "Daddy!""Dada!" Elliot called out, too.Lewis smiled and reached out to pet Serena's head. "That's my little girl. Are you upset that I haven't come home all this time?"Serena shoo
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Lewis asked.Josephine snapped out of her daze and shook her head. "I didn't think—""Didn't think what? Your parents are my parents. It's only fair that I give a proper gesture to my parents. What's so shocking about that?"Josephine had never heard him say su
"Well, we should visit your parents first—show them their grandkids. Plus, I don't think we need to return to Elysium anymore. We'll bring Serena over once we settle down. Let's stay here for a while," Lewis answered.Josephine nodded. She agreed that it was unnecessary to go back there since the co
Seth shot the former the side eye like he was looking at an idiot.Daxtor felt offended at once. His face darkened to his usual sternness. "Why? Are you unwilling to accept your actual identity?"Seth replied, "I hear the Leigh family is in trouble. I don't want to join a sinking ship.""About that.
Daxtor stopped reminiscing and cut to the chase. "Your mother was my first love. I'm probably hers, too."The two had dated when they were in school. They had deep feelings for each other, but their social statuses were too different. Daxtor had tried retaliating against his family and convincing h
Seth came in secret. Some things were easier to do here than in their home country. Still, doing so came with some risks. He said, "You two can forget about having a peaceful life if I hadn't come here. How do you plan to repay me, Lewis?"Lewis responded, "You can go home. We don't need you here."
Lewis fell silent. "Not so soon."Josephine didn't understand. "Do you have any matters left to resolve? Or ..."Or did he want to stay here? It seemed like they didn't have a place to return to.They didn't have a house in Hardington. Apart from the villa in Styx Mansion, nothing else belonged to t
The sudden blast created a disturbance, making the image tremble as static sounds disrupted the audio.The next moment, the signal was interrupted, and the TV screen went black.Although the screen had turned dark, Josephine had keenly noticed that something had exploded in the court.Blood scattere
Josephine didn't have much to do these days. Lewis was rarely home. Alone, she felt bored. Avery didn't want to visit her either.Avery wasn't on good terms with Lewis. So she tried to avoid running into him.Josephine didn't know what Lewis was up to. Avery seemed to have no acquaintances here but
