Chapter 1206
Kris didn’t believe it. Sure enough, Lola reached out her arms towards Kris after the former had finished drinking. She wanted to be held. How could Kris refuse when she was so sweet and delicate? Once Kris held Lola, she couldn’t put her down. She had to put several patches on herself to invigorate the blood and resolve bruises in the middle of the night.…The next day, Noah and Gwynn came to pick them up from the hospital. After Lorian completed the paperwork, he took Tegan and Lola back to the apartment.Lola had woken up early and was now sleeping soundly in Tegan’s arms. Lorian looked down at Lola, but his words were directed at Tegan. “I’ll be out for a bit and come back. Our private plane is taking off at 2:00 pm.”Tegan guessed he was going to see Leanna. She couldn’t help but call softly, “Lorian.”Lorian was holding the door handle when he turned and looked at her with a slight smile. “Don’t worry, I have it all under control.”The autumn sun was just right. Lorian

Sunlight seeped through the narrow iron window and cast mottled patterns on her, giving her a slight sense of warmth. However, this only highlighted Lorian’s indifference even more.Leanna knew in her heart that Lorian was willing to let her go because of Tegan. They were going back to Brookesville, and letting her go was just a small favor for him. Meanwhile, he and Tegan had a lifetime of happiness ahead.That was right. Happiness. They would be happy.Leanna looked up at Lorian, who remained very calm. His deep eyes gazed at her without a hint of emotion, as if she were merely a matter to be dealt with. That was the thing. Lorian had just said they were merely business deals.Leanna smiled gently. There was a sense of relief on her face. A man who didn’t love her wasn’t worth devoting her life to, let alone destroying her life. Thankfully, it was still not too late. Leanna might no longer be a lawyer, but the wealth and connections of the Hensley family were still there. She s

What more could Tegan say?Noah decided to ignore it and asked the servant to bring out four wine glasses. He poured half a glass for each to celebrate Lorian's discharge and toast the family's reunion.Noah felt a bit regretful that Lorian couldn’t drink more. Otherwise, they would have drank until they were drunk. He was so thrilled today. What could be more gratifying than seeing Lorian this happy and blessed?Lorian and Holly had both found their life partners, and Ocelotte was the only person left single. However, he probably wouldn't be an issue. The real headache was Gwen, who was far away overseas. No one informed her about Lorian’s severe injury.After a glass of red wine, Noah thought that Gwen should be back in a year.Lorian tilted his head back and finished the wine. His face flushed slightly. He knew Tegan was worried, so he gently whispered while holding her fingertips, “This little bit of wine won’t get the better of me.”When Lorian first took over the Sanders Gr

Tegan still hadn’t answered. Noah was outside, nagging at his son again, “Hurry up, Lorian. The private plane won’t wait for anyone!”With that shout, all the romantic atmosphere vanished.Originally, Lorian was just joking. Now, however, he let Tegan off. He held her close, before turning his handsome face toward her. He asked seriously, “Are we going home now?”Home, he said… What a beautiful word!Tegan wanted to say something, but she looked out at the blazing sun and suddenly felt that nothing else mattered. After all, they were going home.…Two hours later, they returned to the villa where they used to live. After a year, they came back here again. Tegan had a complex expression and a heart full of mixed feelings. Lorian looked at her and said softly, “If you don’t like it here, we can move to another place.”Tegan quickly responded, “That's not necessary. There’s nothing wrong with this place.”The servants in the villa were moving luggage, with Margaret lovingly holdin

Lorian had been in the meeting for three hours already. Another two hours seemed unbearable, especially since he was still recovering from an illness!Tegan thought for a moment. Then, she asked the servant to watch over Lola. She added a shawl to her outfit and took the medication and a glass of water for Lorian on a tray. Then, she personally went to the study to find him.In the study on the second floor, the room was filled with smoke from the old cigarette smokers. The smell was quite stifling.The senior executives of Sanders Group were in a heated debate. Lorian had remained neutral, mastering the art of leadership by letting them check and balance each other. He wouldn’t openly support any side, as that was not the mark of a good leader.Amid the intense discussion, there was a knock on the door. Lorian assumed it was a servant and felt a bit annoyed. He tilted his head, signaling Kris to answer the door. Kris understood and went to open it, only to find Tegan standing th

He expected Tegan to avoid his gaze, but she didn’t. Instead, she met his eyes and reached out to gently caress his handsome face. Her voice was soft and tender. “Isn’t it natural for me to care about you? Or do you not need my care?”“Why wouldn’t I need it?” Lorian's voice grew even more raspy. Without wasting any time, he gently pressed her head down and kissed Tegan tenderly. As they kissed, Lorian chatted with her about Lola and the dinner menu. In the end, his contented laughter filled the room. His smile was incredibly charming. It was a rare quality that Tegan could not resist. With Tegan in his embrace, Lorian didn’t rush into anything with her after their kiss. Instead, they rested their foreheads together and spoke intimately. Ultimately, he wanted to reconcile with Tegan.Tegan didn’t refuse outright. She trembled in his arms and murmured, “Aren’t we doing well like this?”“Where’s the good in it? This isn't enough! I feel it’s not enough, Tegan.”…When it came

Lorian's words were ambiguous, which made Tegan blush. He did it intentionally. He didn't press further when he saw her reaction.Lorian happily started the engine. He engaged in light and cheerful conversation with Tegan. He would mention things about work, like the new attractive female secretary in the office, even though he had no particular interest in such matters. Lorian simply wanted to make Tegan a little jealous. She had always indulged him. Recently, their time together was genuinely pleasant. It resembled the typical life of a couple but with an added layer of affection and sweetness.Lorian wasn’t one to vocalize his love, but he expressed his feelings through actions. His daily tenderness and passionate nights were such examples. He also gave gifts to Tegan regularly, which made her feel inexplicably moved. In return, Tegan gave Lorian small surprises, whether it was a shirt or tie she personally chose or something he liked for the night. In short, their relationshi

Lorian slowly walked forward. His gaze swept over Gael and Emilia. She was holding onto Gael's arm with a tearful look. If one didn’t know better, one would really think they were a loving couple.“Lorian.” Gael was a bit flustered. After all, Lorian was Yanni’s cousin. If the latter misunderstood and told Yanni, and Yanni ended up causing trouble for Emilia, he’d feel guilty.Emilia already had it tough, having to take care of Ansley!Gael hurriedly explained, "Emilia is my former college classmate."Lorian sneered, "Wasn’t she your old flame?" Lorian was so blunt that it made the couple uncomfortable, especially Emilia, whose face turned pale. Her lips moved for a long time but she couldn't explain a single word, which made Gael feel heartbroken. Gael directly said to Lorian, "That's in the past. Don’t go telling Yanni some nonsense."Ansley hugged Gael's leg. She looked very much like Emilia, and she was staring intently at Lorian with a hint of caution. Just looking at her
