121: Is Her Humiliation Not Enough Yet?

"Uh... No!" A sense of unease spread all over her body, Lizzie struggled with all her strength. However, no matter how much she resisted, Bruno didn't loosen his grip one bit. Instead, a button of her nightgown fell off during the struggle, and Lizzie, who had not had time to change her underwear, felt a cold breeze on her chest, turning her face pale.Bruno's gaze became hotter than ever when he saw the soft roundness of her chest. His hand slid into her nightdress, gently caressing her smooth back."Don't touch me!" Lizzie whispered, gasping for air, almost suffocated by his kiss."It's you who seduced me." Bruno flung his hand, and all the plates on the table fell to the floor, shattering into pieces."I didn't." Lizzie turned her head away, her back pressed against the table, her nightgown already tugged down by him."My word is law." Bruno's hand ruthlessly covered her chest. "You're not wearing underwear. Isn't that seduction? Huh?"Lizzie bit her lip tightly, refusing to make a

122: She Desperately Wants to Distance Herself from Him

Seeing that Bruno was still sitting on the sofa, Lizzie bypassed him and walked to the other side. She picked up her backpack and put the textbooks that were placed aside into it. Without saying a word, she walked out of the apartment.Bruno heard the sound of the apartment door opening and closing, and he unexpectedly felt a sense of inexplicable loss in his heart.Lizzie walked on the road, not flagging down a car. She walked along the roadside, tilting her head slightly, squinting her eyes at the dazzling sunlight. The weather today was beautiful, the sunlight was gorgeous, as if it was smiling. Could she smile like that too? Such a radiant and enchanting smile.But she couldn't smile at all. Even if she raised the corners of her mouth, it would only be filled with bitterness and heartache.Honk honk, a horn sounded, bringing her back to reality. She turned her head towards the source of the sound.Bruno was driving a silver Ferrari convertible and parked by the side of the road.L

123: Getting Deeper into The Act

"Bruno, no matter what, I don't want you to hurt Lizzie," Yelun told him, "Call Lizzie, let's have lunch together at noon.""But, I have plans for the noon," Bruno was surprised by Yelun's proposal of a lunch, he would have never guessed Yelun would consider dining together.He thought, given Lizzie's cold attitude toward him this morning, she probably wouldn't want to have lunch with him again."Regardless of your plans, cancel them. Call Lizzie now," Yelun commanded in a dominant tone.Bruno nodded, "Alright, but I don't know if Lizzie would be willing to come, she seems quite busy recently." He dialed the number as he spoke.Lizzie was sitting with Louise in the classroom, "Lizzie, are you alright? Are you feeling unwell? Why do you look so pale?" Louise asked with concern.She had missed the first two classes in the morning and Louise was about to call her if she didn’t show up."I'm fine, maybe I didn't sleep well last night," Lizzie managed a weak smile.Louise assumed that was

124: Fear of Falling for a Masquerade

Lizzie let out a deep sigh as she settled into the passenger seat. The car began to move slowly forward, the mellow music filling part of the void inside it, preventing the atmosphere from becoming suffocating.Lizzie turned her gaze towards the window. She thought she could avoid him for a day, even if it was just one day, she would be willing. However, she had not lasted even half a day before she found herself trapped with him in the small space of the car. The morning's events still haunted her like a nightmare, impossible to erase.The man next to her was like a devil, entangling her tightly in his grasp with his sharp gaze and strong hands. Bruno glanced sideways at Lizzie whose thoughts had drifted far away, then back at the red light ahead. He stepped on the brake sharply.The sudden braking threw Lizzie forward, almost hitting the windshield. This abrupt jolt brought her wandering thoughts back to reality. She turned to look at Bruno, who was also looking at her. His gaze puz

125: Stirring the Soft Spot Deep within the Heart

Because of Yelun's presence, Lizzie couldn't resist her feelings, even if she was unwilling to do so."I'm going ahead, Bruno, you'll drive Lizzie back to school later," Yelun said as he got into the car, addressing Bruno and Lizzie.Bruno nodded, "Alright, I'll take Lizzie back," He said, glancing at Lizzie in his arms, her face reddened, trying to push away his strong hand wrapped around her waist.Only after Yelun's car was out of sight, Lizzie looked up at Bruno, "You can let me go now, right?" The play was over, it was time for them to disperse, wasn't it?"No," Bruno's hand around her waist didn't loosen at all."You..." Lizzie glared at him, "Let me go, I need to get back."Bruno, with Lizzie in his arms, walked towards the nearby Ferrari, "I'll drive you back.""You really don't need to, it's not far, I can go by myself." Lizzie wondered if he was still acting. With Yelun gone, there was no need for him to be so intimate with her."I said I'll take you back, so I'll take you b

126: The Heart is What Matters

Adeline stood on the rooftop, the cold wind messing up her charming curls and already chaotic thoughts.Why did everything turn out to be this way? Had she given so much only to end up empty-handed?Bruno's recent behavior had unsettled her. His concern for Lizzie was far beyond her expectations.Could it be that Lizzie had started occupying Bruno's heart? Adeline couldn't bring herself to believe it."What are you doing all alone here?" Bruno emerged from the rooftop door, finding Adeline at the edge, lost in thought.Adeline heard him but didn't turn around."Angry, huh?" Bruno came to her side, wrapping his arm around her waist."Do I have the right to be angry?" Adeline leaned into him, speaking lightly.He turned her around to face him, touching her red, swollen face. "Does it hurt?"Pulling his hand away, Adeline said, "That's not important. What's important is your heart. Is it only filled with me?""Of course. Why would you ask that?" Bruno looked at her reddened face."Bruno,

127 Chapter 127: Is It Genuine?

Adeline peered at her with an inquisitive gaze, "You really don't have?" Perhaps Jacob still held a place in her heart."A battered heart, how could it easily be stirred again?" Lizzie disregarded the faint twinge in her chest, yes, she once loved someone deeply, but now, could she cast aside past wounds and feel moved by another man?Impossible. Even if it were possible, Bruno would definitely not be that man."So, you mean there's another man in your heart?" Adeline might believe, if Lizzie could forget Jacob, if she no longer loved Jacob, then she wouldn't have to beg Bruno to drop the multi-billion project of Lin's family and let Jacob take over.Lizzie averted her gaze, looking at the passersby on the street, "I don't think I need to tell you."Adeline took Lizzie's evasion to mean she still loved Jacob, and so, she rejoiced secretly."You like him, don't you?" Lizzie asked flatly, as though asking casually. However, why did it hurt her so much? She was afraid to see Adeline's ex

128 He Seems Like a Different Person

Upon seeing Lizzie's silence, Bruno stands up, "Alright, clean up here. It's late, get some sleep earlier." With that, he leaves the dining room.Lizzie gazes at the empty bowl on the table, her heart filled with confusion that she can't understand. However, she doesn't want to think about it because she can't figure it out. She quickly cleans up.When she returns to the bedroom, she is surprised to see Bruno half-lying on the bed, holding a magazine. Lizzie's steps halt at once."Aren't you sleepy yet?" Bruno drops the magazine and raises a brow at Lizzie's hesitant steps, a hint of displeasure in his heart.Lizzie takes a seat on the sofa, "I'm not sleepy yet, you go to sleep first." She picks up a book casually.But within five minutes, her eyelids start to droop, and she stubbornly remains seated on the sofa.Bruno, seeing her pretending to be strong, gets out of bed and picks her up around her waist."Yo..." Lizzie starts to speak, but her body is already heavily thrown onto the

129: Seaside Dining with Four

A reluctant smile crossed Jacob's lips, "Oh, really? How did you find out?""I heard it from my dad. Jacob, you seem unhappy," Ruoya noticed the forced smile on Jacob's face."No, why would I be unhappy?" Jacob looked at Ruoya. She was so excited to share the good news; he wouldn't want to spoil that for her.Ruoya nodded, "That's good, Jacob. Let's go celebrate today then."She knew he was busy preparing for a collaboration and didn't want to disturb him. The moment she heard that Jacob had successfully signed the collaboration, she couldn't wait to find him."Sure," Jacob nodded."Jacob, I know of a new seaside restaurant. Let's go try it out, shall we?" Ruoya just wanted an evening for the two of them."Whatever makes you happy." Jacob had no objections and put on his suit jacket. The two left the company together.Bruno drove Lizzie to the Yue Lan Seaside Restaurant. Parking the car in an empty spot, they observed the large square with several music fountains, dazzling with colour

130: Drunk and Forgetful

Lizzie, clinging to the table, attempted to stand, "I... I need to go to the restroom." Barely gaining her feet, she stumbled backward. Bruno, with his quick reflexes, supported her waist to prevent her from falling. "Slow down," Bruno murmured, his arm encircling her waist, guiding her back to her seat. Just moments ago, when Lizzie staggered, Jacob instinctively wanted to assist her, but Ruoya detained him, "Jacob." Bruno looked at Lizzie, his large hand tightly gripping hers, "Lizzie." He poured her a glass of water, offering it to her. After a sip, Lizzie gained some clarity, shaking her head, "I'm... I'm fine." "You're anything but," Bruno replied, noting her increasingly flushed face and unsteady stance. He turned to Jacob and Ruoya, apologizing, "I'm sorry. Lizzie's had too much to drink. I need to take her home. I hope we didn't ruin your evening." Ruoya chuckled, shaking her head, "No problem, brother-in-law. You should take her home if she's drunk. Lizzie was never
