"Miss Lizzie?" The maid emerged from the dining room only to find Lizzie lost in thought in the living room.Snapping back to reality, Lizzie asked, "Ooh, what's the matter?""Miss, the master and the madam are waiting for you in the dining room!" The maid noticed her barefoot on the chilly floor and in haste, fetched a pair of slippers for her. "Here, Miss."Lizzie put on the slippers, "Thank you, maid."As soon as she entered the dining room, all eyes were on her. Yufenly scolded, "Why are you standing there like a fool? Come sit! Making all of us wait for you- you have the audacity!" Lizzie’s nonchalant attitude annoyed her. She hated her pretense of misery, manipulating others for sympathy."Yes, sister, why do you look so lost? Aren't you happy to dine at home?" Ruoya said with a cheerful tone, masking her resentment, "You’re rarely home. It’s nice to liven things up when you do come, isn't it?"Lizzie forced a smile, "Why wouldn't I be?" She took her seat next to Bruno."Well th

Bruno spoke, his slender fingers tracing her icy, fair cheek. “Is Jacob really that important?” He asked.Lizzie shook her head, “Whatever happened between us is already in the past, why are you relentlessly targeting him?” “Is it really in the past?” Bruno asked coldly. “You two were so affectionate in the garden. You look so pitiful. I'm sure he's worried about you.”He stroked her face, “He probably wishes he could hold you in his arms, love you tenderly. Is that what you want too?” “I’ve never thought about it like that.” Lizzie shook her head, “You are just being unfair. What crime are you trying to pin on me? Or do you want me to leave the Kolo family?” Bruno’s warm breath caressed her exposed fair skin, the slight warmth mingling with the cold wind, causing her to shiver involuntarily.“Lizzie, all I want is you!” Bruno suddenly lifted her up and marched into the bedroom, tossing her onto the single bed covered with pink sheets.Lizzie reached out to stop him, “Please, stop

Yufenly saw Ruoya sighing heavily and reached out to pat her hand. "Ruoya, trust me. Have you forgotten how I helped you and Jacob leave the country a year ago, keeping it a secret from Lizzie? A year ago it was possible, and today, a year later, Lizzie is married. She's less likely than ever to be with Jacob."Maybe it was true! Lizzie could never be with Jacob again, never ever. Ruoya whispered to herself, in her heart. In this life, she only wanted Jacob, and she would have him.Inside the black Cayenne, Lizzie sat, pulling down the suit jacket draped over her body. She placed it on her lap, her eyes focused on the outside world. The streets were empty, with few pedestrians and even fewer cars. As her thoughts drifted away, a melodious tune brought her back to attention.Lizzie turned to look at Bruno, who was still driving attentively. She moved her mouth but didn't speak, unsure of what to say.Upon arriving at the villa, the silence between the two remained unbroken. Bruno exite

Yelun lifted his gaze to meet Flora’s. Even though her opposition wasn’t strong, he knew that she didn’t have a fondness for Lizzie. It was clear to him as he hadn’t listened to Flora and let Bruno marry her niece. Instead, Bruno chose Lizzie. This was a knot in Flora’s heart."Lizzie, go ahead!" Yelun said in front of Lizzie, not giving any other remarks to Flora.Lizzie went upstairs to grab her bag, and the steward drove her out. By the time Lizzie arrived at her destination, Louise was already waiting there."Steward, thank you for the ride." Lizzie thanked him before getting out of the car."Lizzie, you finally made it, I thought your mother-in-law wouldn't let you out!" Louise was worried she would be stood up.Lizzie laughed softly, "Yeah, I almost couldn't make it.""You always consider them too much. Actually, you have some free time on the weekends to go out. You don't always have to accompany them. This isn't like being married. You’re more like an old maid, spending every

"Is that so?" Louise tilted her head in disbelief, "Could the salary of the CEO's assistant at Leng Corporation really be that high? Affording such expenditures? That must be the corporation many students wish to work for after graduation." Her knowledge was based on occasional overhearings from the restaurant near the academy, where she witnessed the eager faces of her peers from the business school."Hannah, aren't you overthinking this?" Lizzie wasn't bothered by these thoughts since they didn't concern her."I'm not overthinking. You know it's not uncommon for companies to have their unwritten rules," said Louise with a serious tone. Lizzie didn't ponder about it much; she just wanted to prevent Louise from overthinking, lest she kept asking questions.Seeing Lizzie's indifference, Louise assumed she was overthinking. They left the shopping mall, settling in a cozy cafe, with two cups of cappuccinos before them. The fusion of Italian intense coffee and frothy milk was bittersweet,
