81: All Because of Lizzie

The black BMW had already parked in the exclusive spot at the club. "Ruoya, what are you thinking about? You seem so lost." Jacob's large hand covered her small one, which was damp with cold sweat.Ruoya snapped back to reality, "Oh, it's nothing." She smiled at him."Today you're supposed to be here to relax with me, but you seem to have something on your mind." Jacob turned off the engine, "We're here. Let's get out of the car.""Okay." Ruoya nodded.The two of them walked side by side into the upscale leisure club. Ruoya took Jacob's arm, "Jacob, it's been a long time since I've played any sports. You'll need to go easy on me!""Every time we play, you're the one who wins," Jacob said, a charming smile spreading across his face, only to freeze when he spotted Bruno arm-in-arm with Adeline, emerging from the other side of the club, standing in front of the elevator.Jacob wondered why Bruno was here, intimately arm-in-arm with Adeline. Where was Lizzie?"What a coincidence!" Bruno s

82: How Could He Be So Indifferent Towards Her?

Throughout the series of matches, Bruno and Adeline always came out as winners, while Jacob and Ruoya remained at a disadvantage."Jacob, can't we stop playing?" Ruoya looked at him.But Jacob disagreed, and in the end, the doubles match turned into Jacob and Bruno against each other, with Jacob ending up losing once again.Bruno took the towel that Adeline handed him and wiped the sweat off his face. "My apologies, Director Lei."Jacob glanced at him indifferently. "CEO Leng, you're too polite.""No need to be so polite to me. You can't beat me, no matter what! Including Lizzie." Bruno approached him, whispering quietly, but it was already a declaration of the outcome."You..." Jacob could only watch as Bruno walked away, leaving him with his back view.Was he really that confident? On what basis? Jacob clenched his fists, tightly gripping the towel as if trying to tear a hole in it. He glared at their departing figures with anger and resentment.Ruoya walked over and stood by his si

83: Just a Stray Dog of Unknown Origin

Lizzie had walked a dozen meters to a trash bin to dispose of her garbage. She dusted off her clothes, but the smeared dirt on her outfit stubbornly clung onto it. As she strolled back towards her villa, she wiped the beads of sweat off her forehead. She heard a whimpering sound. This time, Lizzie followed the sound and spotted a grubby little white dog hiding in the nearby flowerbed. With a tender touch, she lifted the poor creature out, seeing it had a bleeding paw."Oh, how did you get injured?" Lizzie cradled the dirty dog in her arms without any signs of repulsion. She sat on the edge of the flowerbed, examining the wound on its paw. The little white dog obediently lay on her lap, wagging its tail.Lizzie held its paws, looking into its round, innocent, brown eyes, "How did you end up here? Where's your home?" Despite being fully aware that it wouldn't answer, she couldn't stop her questions.This was an upscale neighborhood, and the residents who owned dogs usually had pedigreed

84: He's Neither a Bad Guy nor a Good One

Bruno watched her back as she left, his thick eyebrows furrowed in thought. She was growing braver, even daring to speak to him the way she did. What annoyed him even more was that her attention was focused entirely on a stray dog. He couldn't stand her ignoring him. Maybe he should have killed that dog back then, just to see what she would do?Pulling up to his villa, he had barely gotten out of his car when he heard Flora's voice echoing through the spacious living room."Lizzie, what in the world are you doing? Where did you find such a filthy dog? Get rid of it at once!" Flora glared at Lizzie who was cradling a dirty stray in her arms."Mom, Bob will be clean after a bath. It'd be so cruel to discard him!" Lizzie protested, even as Bob wrestled his way out of her arms, leaving a trail of pawprints on the pristine floor.Flora gasped, "Look at this, look at this mess! The floor was just cleaned. It's filthy again!" She backed away, as if Bob was a monstrous creature. "Enough. Thro

85: What I Want is Your Willingness

Lizzie was struggling incessantly. "Let me go, I need to find Bob.""If you keep squirming around, you'll be exposing yourself," warned Bruno, in a leisurely manner. His gaze fell upon her, his deep-set eyes aflame with an intense heat."You..." Only then did Lizzie realize that her robe was loosening around her waist due to her struggles. It was on the brink of coming undone completely.Bruno's long arms pulled her back into his embrace, his face buried in her slightly damp hair. "You smell so good."Lizzie didn't dare struggle anymore, held captive in his tight embrace. "What...what are you planning?""What do you think?" Bruno asked, a smirk playing on his lips. His hand rested steadily on her waist, showing no sign of letting go."You can't touch me!" Lizzie protested, her face tilted up at him in defiance."Really?" Bruno’s eyes narrowed, a smirk on his face. "Do you think there's anything I want that I can't get?" His words implied that whatever he desired, he would inevitably o

86: Stepping on Dog Poop

Lizzie remained silent, avoiding his deep and fiery gaze by keeping her eyes lowered, her soft white hand gently stroking Bob, the little white dog in her arms. Bruno extended his hand, squeezing her chin between his three fingers, forcing her to look into his eyes. "Why so silent?" he asked."And how will it matter if I talk or not? Or if I refuse? Will you let me be then?" A charming curve appeared on Lizzie’s lips as she blinked, her long curled eyelashes flashing enticingly.Bruno was taken aback for a brief moment, before quickly reverting back to his usual cold demeanor. "Very well, good that you understand," he said. "Shall we leave now?"His icy gaze raked over her, taking in her green chiffon dress, before releasing her chin. Lizzie bent down, gently placing the little dog on the fluffy carpet. "Be a good boy, Bob. Stay put until I come back."Bob wagged his tail and whimpered softly. Lizzie petted his head before picking up her bag from the nearby couch. Bruno waited in the

87: Plunged into the Abyss

A sleek black Cayenne pulled up in front of a lavish villa in the prestigious Ming Xiu residential area. This time, before Lizzie could exit the vehicle and ring the doorbell, the villa's grand entrance slowly swung open.Bruno drove the vehicle into the villa's garage. No sooner had they stepped out of the car, a servant approached them, "Miss, and Master, you've arrived. The master is waiting for you in the living room."Lizzie glanced at Bruno, standing stoically beside her, barely discernible nod confirmed his acknowledgment. They proceeded into the living room, trailing one after the other. Seeing Bruno, Jianmin Jiang shot up from his seat, "Bruno, you're here. Please, take a seat."Lizzie followed suit, "Dad.""Hmm," Jianmin Jiang replied, not even bothering to meet her gaze.Bruno observed everything silently, choosing to seat his robust frame on a single-seater couch.Jianmin Jiang settled onto a different couch, summoning a maid, "Please bring us some high-quality tea."Soon

88: Can't You Stop Forcing Me?

Bruno's long arm wrapped around her waist, "Lizzie, didn't you just say you wanted to go upstairs? I'll accompany you. Dad, I'm going to accompany Lizzie upstairs, you don't mind, right?""Oh, okay, go ahead." Jianmin Jiang's heart was already filled with joy, things were settled, and his anxious heart had also been put at ease.Lizzie instantly stood up from his lap, carrying her bag towards the second floor.Bruno stood up, striding to catch up, watching her hurry to escape from him, the smile on his lips grew stronger.As soon as Lizzie entered the room, she wanted to close the bedroom door, but it was held back by a strong arm. Looking up, she saw Bruno's handsome face with a smile."What, you want to shut me out?" Bruno chuckled.Lizzie's hand remained on the doorknob, "Mr. Cold, how dare I? With one word from you, you can dictate the lives of others, can't you?"Bruno's hand covered hers, "Are you scared?""I..." Lizzie tried to withdraw her hand from his, but to no avail, "Of c

89: He Couldn't Give Her the Security She Craved

With a lift of her gaze, Lizzie met the eyes of the man standing before her. "Does it matter if I'm mad?" she spoke with a detached tone. Having no concern about her feelings, why should he bother to ask? Just like her, he ignored his own unwillingness and drowned her with his power and dominance."I want to know," Bruno walked to the bedside, turned on the table lamp, and leaned down to ask.Lizzie slightly leaned back, wanting to put a distance between them. "Do you want me to be angry at you?""What do you think?" Bruno's hand tightened on her thin shoulder, his handsome face emotionless."If you want me to be mad, I should be mad. Everything about me is under your control now, isn't it? One move, one glance from you, and I'd be shattered into pieces, beyond hope," Lizzie winced as she felt pain in her shoulder from his grip.Bruno didn't intend to let go. Lizzie bit her lip, bearing the pain, unwilling to ask for his mercy.Why should she endure the pain? If she was just trying t

90: You owe me, you can never repay

At this moment, Jianmin Jiang spoke with a smile, "Bruno, Lizzie, seeing you two so happy truly puts my mind at ease. I was worried because this is not like the old times where marriages were arranged. You two are a couple arranged by me and President Leng. Seeing you loving each other so much, I am relieved."Bruno's arms encircled Lizzie's waist, an expression of joy on his face, "Dad, Lizzie is so beautiful and understanding. How could I not cherish and love her? If she were married to someone else, wouldn't that be my regret? Lizzie, isn't that right?"Lizzie had been distracted, and Bruno's words abruptly pulled her thoughts back, "Oh." She hadn't really heard what Bruno had said, and could only nod slightly."Your beloved is right in front of you. What else are you thinking?" Bruno whispered into Lizzie's ear, a voice audible only to the two of them.Lizzie turned her head slightly, her lips brushing against his. An electric shock seemed to pass between them.Lizzie quickly retr
