In her sketch, Lucas saw how much Coco loved him. The way she drew him, the way his eyes were full of love. So, this was what he looked like in her eyes. She seemed to realize how deeply he was in love with her.Lucas would keep every picture she drew of him. He carefully took the sketch off the easel and stored it safely. As long as she wanted, he would model for her til their hair turned grey.Her drawings of his would be the proof of their lifelong love!-Coco and Lucas spent their New Year's Eve together. Coco invited Leia to the villa, and Lucas' parents came too. They spent the night together, partying and celebrating.During dinner, Jared and Carmen lifted their glasses in the air in a toast, thanking Leia for all she had done. Jared and Carmen had always treated Leia with respect. Leia had saved Coco's life, indirectly saving their son and the Gomez family.Many outsiders said Leia was unworthy of the Gomez family, especially since she was uneducated and came from the vi

"I'll come with you," Lucas agreed readily, and the couple returned to their room.When they got back to the room, Lucas spoke again. "Okay. Let's talk."Coco suddenly wrapped her arms around Lucas' waist, burying her face in his arms."What's wrong?" Her strange behavior made him a little nervous."I felt an urge to cry while watching the TV show," Coco whimpered. She did not want her in-laws and Leia to see her crying, so she had made an excuse to go upstairs instead of worrying them. Lucas cupped her face in his hands although startled by her tears. "Thinking about your parents?""Yeah, but not just that," Coco sniffed."When I was a kid, my parents used to watch the TV with me on New Year's Eve. Later, when I stayed with my uncle's family, I had to grab a small stool and sit far away to watch the TV with them. Their TV was in the master bedroom, so all of them would sit on the bed and watch it except for me.""I wasn't happy. When I became independent, I moved out and live

Carmen guessed she was right. "Well, I'm warning you not to do it again. If anything happens, I'm going to kick your ass."Lucas helplessly nodded as he listened to his mother's lecture. When he came back to the room, Coco looked at him curiously. "What did Mom ask you?""She told me to hold back," Lucas grumbled, leaving Coco puzzled."Because we spent half an hour in the room earlier, Mom thought my desire got the better of me, and I made you stay with me," Lucas explained.Coco finally understood what it was all about, her face turning bright red."Did you explain to Mom? About what happened?" she asked quickly."How would I have explained? That you wanted to cry?" Lucas mused, making Coco feel embarrassed. Telling Carmen the truth would only make things complicated."Whatever they think," Lucas shrugged, not caring about what others think"But… Will Mom think… I'm risking my health just for momentary pleasure?" Coco stammered while worried about leaving a bad impression o

"If not four, I want at least two kids," Coco swooned, imagining two toddlers surrounding her, calling her ‘Mommy’."You have to keep trying after this one, then," Serenity teased."By the way, did something happen to Jackie?" Coco asked, noticing that Jacqueline was acting really strange. Jacqueline was the most outgoing among the kids, constantly chattering. Her usual smile was gone, and she was exceptionally silent, merely interacting with her youngest sister and watching cartoons on the TV."She's had some problems with her friend. She's been sulking for some time," Serenity sighed."Is she mad at her friend? But she's not the kind who holds grudges. Did they get into a fight?" Coco wondered, thinking about how serious a conflict between children could be. "It's a little different this time. Adults are involved too," Serenity lowered her voice, telling Coco about Morris and his family.Coco listened, bewildered at the story. Humans would always be greedy, especially when l

"Is that so?" Jackson said with a playful smile. "I’d like to see how you handle it if Coco gives birth to a girl this time.""In any case, if it's a daughter, I'll protect her well, making sure she never faces any hardship. For her future boyfriend, I'll make sure he never dares to betray her," Lucas replied."And if it's a son?" Jackson asked."If it's a son, he'll need to be toughened up. I won’t spoil him too much," Lucas said.It was clear that he had double standards for his children."What if your son resembles Coco? Would you still not spoil him?" Jackson asked with a teasing smile.Lucas was at a loss for words. If his son looked like Coco... Well, he might need to reconsider his stance.-Morris absentmindedly watched his parents frantically pack their belongings, stuffing everything they could into suitcases."Daddy, Mommy, are we leaving?" he asked in a small voice.Everyone was happily celebrating the New Year, but a new wave of debt collectors kept showing up

Marissa resented the Valor family deeply. If they had been willing to help pay off her debts from the beginning and hadn't distanced themselves from her family, she wouldn't have been forced to borrow from loan sharks."I'll beg Jacqueline for help! She... she’ll help me!" Morris said urgently."The Valor family has clearly cut ties with us. Stop dreaming!" Marissa shouted. "Now, everyone knows the Valor family has kicked us to the curb. I told you to please Jacqueline, but what happened? You didn’t do enough to please her, and she’s upset with us because she overheard a few things!"Marissa had always blamed everyone else but never considered her own mistakes.Morris lowered his head, clutching the hem of his shirt tightly. That day, he had wanted to stop Jacqueline when she left heartbroken, but in the end, he was too scared to do so.It had been so many days, and Jacqueline still hadn’t visited him. Although his piano teacher told him he could continue his piano lessons, it wou

At this point, Marissa and Fernando could no longer sit still. They were beginning to realize what was happening. Marissa even tried to jump out of the car, but the car was locked."Stop the car! Stop the car right now!" Marissa and Fernando shouted.The driver finally responded, leisurely saying, "It’s only right to pay back what you owe. Running away like this isn't playing by the rules."Marissa and Fernando panicked since they fully understood the situation.Morris was horrified as he clutched the wooden toy house in his arms.The car came to a stop in a dark alley, and the driver turned to them. "Alright, get out."The three of them trembled as they got out of the car, only to be confronted by a group of thugs. Morris could only watch as his parents groveled before them, hoping for a chance to be spared. However, the men remained cold and indifferent.The leader of the group spoke coldly, "The only thing I care about is whether you can pay back the money. I'll let you go

Just then, Morris noticed the children's watch on his wrist. It was a gift from Frederick, worth forty thousand. Marissa had mentioned that the watch was waterproof and could even withstand atmospheric pressure.Then, he pressed a button on the watch which had a built-in phone feature with Jacqueline's number stored in it. He thought that maybe she could save his family if he asked her for help. He was hopeful that his parents were only injured and could still be saved. Marissa had said that the Valor family was the most powerful family in Solaria, and there was nothing they couldn’t do.So, Morris dialed Jacqueline's number. However, his eyes were gradually filled with despair when no one answered on the other end. When the boat docked and the people on board were waiting for the police to take Morris to the police station, he unexpectedly bolted off the boat. The dock was in a busy part of the city center, and as soon as he ran into the crowd, he disappeared.At this moment,
