Chapter 1131

Laura had already been frustrated by Miguel's change of heart regarding her father's case. Now, hearing him repeatedly praise Jonah made it seem like she was unworthy of him.This left Laura uncomfortable, and her words carried a sharp edge as she replied. She stared at Miguel fixedly. "Mr. Gosling, I think you've misunderstood. I'm neither stringing your son along nor clinging to him. I've made it clear to him that we're not a good match, and I have no intention of continuing anything with him."Miguel frowned. "But he's refusing to answer our calls or come home because of you. If that's the case, why don't you call him and repeat what you told me? Or better yet, meet with him and settle this in person. Laura, I will not take your father's case even if you involve Jonah."Laura's frustration boiled over. So, he thought she agreed to date Jonah to manipulate him into taking her father's case.Miguel pushed again. "Please consider how we as parents feel. Call Jonah or arrange a meet

Miguel was shocked when he learned that Laura and Simon knew each other.If Simon had contacted him, Miguel wouldn't have had that surprised expression.Laura glanced at Simon. "So, it wasn't you who told Miguel to refuse my dad's case?"Simon shrugged. "Does it matter?""Of course, it matters!" Laura felt a twinge of guilt when she realized she had misunderstood him, but she still asked dejectedly, "Then why didn't you explain yesterday?"Simon chuckled helplessly. "Would you have believed me?"Laura turned her back to him. "You have connections everywhere. It wouldn't be hard for you to get in my way. And you let me fall into Lionel's trap before. Who knows what you're planning this time?"Simon was both amused and exasperated. He turned her to face him. "Then why don't you behave yourself in the future? Why would I get in your way if you weren't always trying to run away from me?"It was such an unreasonable statement, but it sounded intimate coming from him.Laura quickly

Britney chuckled and even gave Simon a thumbs-up. "Good luck, Mr. Moore!"Simon didn't understand kids these days. Why were they always so cheerful?Still, it wasn't bad that Laura had such a loyal companion.He nodded. "I'll leave Laura in your care."With that, he quickly strode out to catch up with Laura.The blush on Laura's face had yet to fade as she hit him in frustration. "This is all your fault! Thank goodness it was Britney who saw us. If it were someone else, who knows what kind of gossip would be spreading by Monday."Simon took her hand and led her into the car. "Are you that worried about people knowing about us? Is being with me that much of a burden?"Laura glanced at him. "How would you feel if rumors about you being with a woman for the money spread?"All she wanted was for Simon to put himself in her shoes for once and avoid making things awkward in front of her colleagues and friends.To her surprise, Simon burst out laughing. "Then you'd better hurry and b

Laura felt she had returned to a much earlier time. Perhaps… during her first crush. She was so flustered yet filled with anticipation.Laura took a deep breath. "Mr. Moore, do you know what day tomorrow is?"A smile tugged at Simon's lips. "What day is it? Isn't it just the weekend?"Laura's heart sank. So, he didn't know it was Valentine's Day! She thought he...As her mind raced, Simon remarked, "I've never celebrated Valentine's Day before. You can plan it if you've got the experience."Laura felt like a young girl experiencing her first love. Her heart pounded, and she felt like butterflies in her stomach.She blushed, her eyes twinkling. "So… You've never dated anyone before? You've never had a love life even… even with your status?"Simon glanced at her. "I have standards."Laura couldn't help but laugh. "So, you never had a woman before me? Wow, you used to be so innocent!"Simon's lips twitched. He felt like Laura was mocking him!He grinned. "No matter how innocent

"The Ferris wheel?" Simon sighed. "Aren't you a bit too old for something this boring? Wouldn't a roller coaster be more exciting?" Laura rolled her eyes at him. "What do you know?" She remembered reading in a book once that when a Ferris wheel reaches its highest point, couples who make a vow together would have their wish come true. Although... She and Simon could hardly be called a couple, and she knew that whatever wish she made wouldn't come true.But still, people could dream, right? Even if... it was just to fool herself. Just then, Simon's phone rang. Laura noticed it was a call from Hailey, and her eyes dimmed. Simon initially didn't want to answer. But Hailey was persistent, calling again and again. Finally, he picked up the phone. Hailey's panicked voice came through. "Simon, something's wrong! You need to come to the hospital right away! Your mom suddenly fainted. She's at the hospital and needs emergency surgery. You have to sign the consent forms!

Meanwhile, Hailey stayed in the hospital room, refusing to leave no matter how hard Simon tried to send her away. She was determined to be the first person Fiona saw when she woke up. As long as she could keep Fiona on her side, Hailey believed Simon would have no choice but to marry her.…Meanwhile, Laura hadn't slept well that night. When morning arrived, Simon still hadn't come back. Her eyes drooped. What was she even expecting? Fiona was in an accident, yet she still hoped Simon would spend the holiday with her. No matter how much Laura tried to reason with herself, she couldn't help feeling upset and let down. The greater her expectations had been, the deeper her disappointment was.Laura decided to go to work to distract herself even though it was Sunday. The office was empty. Everyone else was likely out celebrating Valentine's Day. Laura signed and turned on her computer before working on a draft, hoping to keep herself from dwelling on things.But no ma

Laura playfully glared at Simon before she suddenly wrapped her arms around his neck. She kissed him. "Thank you, Simon. I... thought I wouldn't be able to celebrate Valentine's Day. I… envy those who can celebrate it." Simon's heart skipped a beat. Looking at her tear-brimmed eyes, she looked so innocent and endearing. He had the urge to take her right then and there. But the steak had to be eaten while hot, so he restrained himself. His voice was husky and low. "Go wash your hands and eat. Oh, do you like the flowers?" Laura's eyes sparkled and she nodded. "I love them." Then, she ran to the bathroom to wash her hands. Standing before the sink, she looked at her flushed cheeks and covered her warm face with her hands. She took a deep breath, but her heart was bubbling with happiness. Simon knocked on the bathroom door. "Come out quickly. It won't taste good if it gets cold." …In the cozy living room, Simon had set the table with steak and red wine. He even lit

Laura didn't want to get drunk. She wanted to experience this blissful and wonderful night sober. A sly glint appeared in her eyes as she walked over and sat on Simon's lap. With her arms around his neck, she gazed at him with her sparkling eyes. Laura said sincerely, "Simon, this is the happiest Valentine's Day I've ever had. I… feel so lucky. I… will remember this day forever."Her voice choked, and her thoughts drifted to the future. If she had to leave him one day, would she ever meet another man who could leave such a deep impression on her? Simon felt a fiery desire rising within him as he held Laura. His kiss landed on her forehead, then her nose, and slowly moved to her lips. When she didn't resist, he deepened the kiss. Soon, his lips brushed against her ears, and he whispered huskily, "Laura, I want you." Her face burned. In the next moment, he swept her up into his embrace. "Mr. Moore…" She looked at him, eyes wide and innocent as she called his name. Simo

Fiona felt that she was becoming reliant on Hailey. She smiled, "Hailey, I owe you this time. If it weren't for you visiting me when I fainted, I might not even be alive right now. I envy your parents. They're so fortunate to have such a wonderful daughter like you." Hailey shook her head. "Why not just take me as your goddaughter, Mrs. Moore?" Fiona shook her head. "Becoming my goddaughter would be unfair to you. A girl as outstanding as you should become part of the Moore family! Tell me, do you still have feelings for Simon?"Hailey blushed. "Even if I do, Simon's heart isn't with me." Fiona corrected her, "Silly child, are you saying Simon's heart is with that sly fox? That's impossible! Simon could never love her, let alone have any future with her!" Hailey asked curiously, "Why not?" Fiona hesitated. She wanted to tell Hailey the truth, but she was worried it might disrupt Simon's plans. Besides, this was their family secret and she couldn't reveal them to Hailey

Fiona said, "Look around! Where else could you find someone as outstanding and considerate as Hailey? Yet, you still don't cherish her! Simon, you must listen to me when it comes to marriage. If you don't, I'll stop taking my medication and refuse treatment. I'll die right in front of you!""Mom!" Simon interrupted her. "What are you talking about? What does this have to do with your treatment and medication?"Knowing her son's filial nature, Fiona became even more resolute. "Your marriage is the most important thing on my mind. I won't have peace until this is resolved."Simon fell silent for a moment before turning to Hailey. "Come with me. We need to talk." Hailey immediately stood up and followed him out of the hospital room. At the end of the hallway, Simon wore a disdainful expression. "What kind of game are you playing this time?" "Simon, how could you think of me like that?" Hailey feigned sadness. "Would I have saved your mother if I were a bad person? My feelings
