Chapter 1061

Laura exhaled deeply and responded, "I don't care what happens to Simon anymore. Whether his life gets better or worse, it's none of my concern. The only thing that matters right now is that the lawyer I found can get my dad out as soon as possible.""I was actually going to suggest you try the lawyer I found," Jennifer said with a touch of regret. "But since you've already hired someone, I'll let it go."By the way, he has a son around our age. He visits my patient at the hospital a lot, and I hear he's single. His dad even asked me if I knew any single colleagues, hoping I could set him up with someone."The food on Laura's fork slipped off and landed on her plate. "You don't mean you're trying to set me up with him, do you?" she asked, her tone tinged with resignation."I was thinking about it. You have no idea. He's really handsome and tall. On top of that, he's a university professor. I think he's a great catch. You should at least consider it. We can't let good things pass

With that, Jennifer followed Laura upstairs to her apartment.They navigated the chaotic streets, climbed the crowded stairs, and squeezed through a narrow hallway before finally reaching Laura's tiny apartment.However, the noise from outside felt a million miles away once they stepped inside.Laura had managed to make the small space feel warm and cozy. Moreover, it was immaculately clean. Still, the cramped apartment made Jennifer feel a pang of sympathy for her.Laura poured Jennifer a cup of warm milk, urging her to drink and warm up. With red-rimmed eyes, Jennifer asked, "How much do you need for the lawyer? Laurie, be honest with me. Are you struggling financially right now?"Laura pursed her lips, then replied, "The lawyer's fees are high, but I've almost managed to scrape enough together.""Stop lying to me," Jennifer said, guilt creeping into her voice. "I know I've been neglecting you and not caring for you like I should have. That's why you've had to go through al

With a grin, Britney winked at Laura. "But I love seeing you and Mr. Moore together. Every time I see you two, it feels like I'm watching a romance drama!"Laura was somewhat speechless upon hearing that. A romance drama? To her, her relationship with Simon was more like something out of a tragic TV show. In an instant, her colleagues started urging her to call Simon. Yet, Laura simply replied with a smile, "He has a business dinner to attend tonight. Besides, this is just a department get-together. If he were here, it'd be hard for us to really enjoy ourselves, right?"And just like that, she managed to sidestep the awkward moment.Laura silently noted that she had to find time to set the record straight with her colleagues. She needed to make it clear that her relationship with Simon was over. Otherwise, they'd continue seeing them as a couple.…Later that evening, Laura and her colleagues headed to a nearby seafood buffet after work. But with such a large group and it bein

Laura masked her discomfort and calmly said, "I've already broken up with him."In an instant, the table fell into an uneasy silence. It was so quiet that even the sound of breathing seemed magnified. Her colleagues shifted awkwardly in their seats. A few even shot Britney pointed looks, silently blaming her for saying too much."Laurie, don't worry about it. You wouldn't have been happy with a man like that anyway," someone reassured her.Another voice chimed in, "Exactly. Men like Mr. Moore live in a completely different world. You deserve someone who puts you first."One by one, they tried to comfort her. However, their words only deepened Laura's shame.If they ever found out Hailey was Simon's real girlfriend—and Laura was just the other woman—what would they think of her then? "Alright, I get it," she responded with a strained smile. "Let's eat. I'm starving!"Her tone made it clear that she didn't want to dwell on the topic any longer. Laura then turned her attention t

Hailey hurried after Simon. He was as cold as ever, but at least he'd agreed to have dinner with her.That was progress. She was certain it wouldn't take long before she could win him over completely. At that thought, Hailey's spirits lifted. "Simon, there's a park nearby. Shall we take a stroll?" she suggested. "Look, there are so many couples out tonight.""I'm tired from work. Let me take you home. It's getting late," Simon replied indifferently.At those words, disappointment flickered across Hailey's face.And sure enough, Simon drove her straight to the entrance of her residential area. "Simon, won't you come in for a bit?" she asked softly, her voice almost pleading. "You could have some coffee and take a break."Besides, one of my housekeepers is amazing at massages—it's perfect for relieving tension. Didn't you say you were tired? I'll ask him to give you a massage."Yet, Simon found her chatter insufferably annoying. With a frown, he responded, "No, it's late. I don

It was only then that Laura recalled her neighbor's words from two days ago. Someone from building management had knocked on her door, but she wasn't home. "Alright, just a moment!" she answered. Then, Laura grabbed a jacket and hurriedly threw it over her pajamas before rushing to the door.The moment she opened it, a group of thugs barged in. Michel was the last to enter. He sauntered into the apartment with his hands in his pockets, a cocky grin playing on his lips.Laura froze in shock, and then demanded, "What are you doing here?""You don't remember?" Michel sneered. "I told you, Laura. One day, you'd be begging me on your knees."Without missing a beat, Laura spat, "Get out now! Otherwise, we'll see who ends up begging whom."Suddenly, Michel burst out laughing. He narrowed his eyes and replied, "You really think your martial arts skills are enough to take me down? These men I brought with me are professionals. If you want to put up a fight, go ahead. They'll enjoy it."

Everyone in the room turned toward the door, alarm etched on their faces.Standing there in a long black trench coat was Simon. Wearing a cold expression, he ordered, "Let her go and get the hell out of here!"Michel had harbored resentment against Simon for some time. He'd been just one step away from claiming Laura, but Simon had to show up and ruin everything!At that point, Michel had lost all sense of reason. He released Laura and stormed toward Simon."Well, well, if it isn't Mr. Moore himself!" he mocked. "So, this is where you come to have fun now, huh? Don't you know you're here in the red-light district? Women here sell themselves for cash! What's the matter, Mr. Moore? Is this your type now?"Michel's words had barely settled when a murderous glint flashed in Simon's eyes. Without warning, he grabbed Michel by the collar and yanked him forward.Two sharp slaps echoed through the room as Michel's head whipped from one side to the other."You! Simon Moore, how dare you

Only then did Laura snap back to reality. Without thinking, she nestled into Simon's warm embrace, and as she listened to the steady beat of his heart, a sense of calm began to wash over her.That was until she saw the blood still trickling from the wound on his arm. Laura's eyes widened in shock, and she pulled away from him instantly. "You're hurt!" she exclaimed, her voice thick with concern.Simon grabbed a couple of tissues and wiped away the blood before saying, "I just got nicked by their knife. It's nothing.""Let me take you to the hospital," Laura replied, her voice quivering with emotion. Tears welled up in her eyes as her worry was laid bare. He took her hand and calmly responded, "It's just a superficial wound. I'm fine. Do you have a first aid kit? Just wrap it up for me.""Are you sure? What if it's deeper than it looks? What if it gets infected?" Laura asked, her voice tinged with worry.Simon gave her a reassuring glance. "Trust me. It's nothing. Just get the

Noticing Simon's silence, Laura turned toward him with curiosity. As soon as she did, he reached out to cradle the back of her head. In the next instant, his tall frame leaned in. Each breath he took was heavy as he savored the softness of her lips. Laura's heart pounded violently in her chest. She tried to push him away, but his arm tightened around her waist. It was as if he wanted to meld their bodies together.Under Simon's dominance, Laura gradually gave up resisting. Memories of him arriving just in time to save her flashed through her mind. Suddenly, the void in her heart felt as though it had been filled, though she couldn't say with what.Yet, she didn't want to think about it—couldn't, even if she tried. His fervent kisses overwhelmed her, leaving her weak in his arms. Just as things were about to intensify, Laura abruptly stopped him.Simon paused, desire simmering in his dark eyes. He looked at her and asked, "What's the matter?"Her cheeks burned as she answere

Laura stood behind Simon, keeping her distance with careful politeness. The kiss from earlier seemed as if it had never happened. In the 20 minutes she spent in the shower, her mind had cleared. Now, she was completely clear-headed. "Mr. Moore, thank you for saving me today. But it's late, and you should head home to rest," she said cautiously. Simon turned to face her, his tone cold and firm. "Move into a new place. I don't feel comfortable with you staying here."His arrangements and concern sent a shiver through Laura, but she fought to hold it back. With her head down, she replied, "I understand. However, my lease isn't up yet. I'll get a better security door installed tomorrow.""Laura Scott!" Simon snapped. At that point, he had lost his patience. He added, "I'm not asking for your opinion. Tomorrow, I'll have Alex bring you the keys to a new place. He'll come over and help you move."Laura knew all too well what would happen if she accepted his arrangement. She'd be h
