Noah couldn’t believe his ears. “Real-really?” Actually, he did not harbor other intentions.

Now all she wanted was a quiet and peaceful life, no matter how poor and simple it was.She said gently, “I…Since I was a child, my parents didn’t want me. I always wanted a mother to love me, from now on I’ll acknowledge you as my godmother. When we’re back in the north, I’ll find a job, even dishwashing will do. I’ll take care of you.”“Oh, my dear girl…” The old lady was delighted. Life had been tough for her. Especially after she went to South City, she was forced to labor and even bottled up her anger.

He had nothing to say. At that moment, all he did was murmur to himself. “I’ve swept through the entire mountain, but she was nowhere to be found. She must have been lying when she said she was on the mountain!”Sabrina laughed coldly. “Jane will never lie. If she said she’s on the mountain, then she’s definitely on the mountain. It’s just that she decided to move away the moment she heard you say you wanted to find her.”Alex sighed. Subconsciously, he choked on a sob. He felt a sense of despair in his chest. He never expected he would feel this way. He always thought he had no feelings for Jane, what's more love. They were just co-workers who were very compatible with each other. Jane said it herself, the day his true girlfriend came back, she would disappear willingly. Now that his true girlfriend was back, and true to her word, she disappeared. But his entire life was a mess. He was going to go crazy.Right at that moment, someone called him. Alex thought it was news from the me

On the other end, Marcus sounded confused, “Who are you?”Lily answered, “I’m Old Master Shaw’s friend. How are the Old Master’s affairs going?”For the past few weeks, Lily was busy trying to reconcile with Alex. He even went to the top of the mountain to deal with Jane. So, even though she was in South City, she did not pay much attention to Old Master Shaw.Right until now, Lily still remembered what Emma told her when she asked her to come home. She said there was a foul-smelling force in South City that required the cooperation of both Old Master Shaw and herself to remove.Now she wondered how Old Master Shaw was doing? Emma did not even answer her calls. These people! They called her back but now all of them were retreating like cowards. Was it public information that she had been dumped by Alex? With Old Master Poole’s support and approval, Alex would have a hard time getting rid of her! On the other end, Marcus asked her impatiently, his tone exhibiting his annoyance, “W

She heard from Emma that she got to where she was by using her skills in bed. Emma’s first goal in calling her to return from abroad was because she wanted Lily to act as her ally, and get rid of Sabrina. Sabrina Scott! That damn woman! The first time she came to her home, without even bothering to first ask her about the situation, she immediately ordered her two little sidekicks and her little daughter to beat her up till her face was covered in bruises. That was the reason why Alex did not want her anymore because she looked ugly after the beating! Since she was now confident in her final win, she was determined to also get rid of all of Jane’s supporters! Lily was wildly ambitious, and she acted swiftly on her ambitions. After ending the call with Marcus, Lily visited a beauty parlor. Her investment in herself obviously paid off. After leaving the health club, her cheeks were as smooth as a baby’s bottom.

Lily, who was busy crying her eyes out, raised her head and saw Holden Payne. He was wearing a suit, looking cold and distant at her. He looked arrogant and rebellious. However, his tone was gentle. “Woman, you’re a piece of trash!” Lily frowned at him. “You…why are you here?”Holden said in disgust, “I wouldn’t come if I knew you were here! Because I never want to see such a disgusting woman like you! Let me tell you, you better not get pregnant! If you are, then abort it! If you dream of tying yourself to me and not abort the baby, be prepared to die with the baby!”“Who the hell do you think you are…” Lily spat.With a swift movement, he kicked her. Then, he turned and left. Lily wailed in pain. Wandering around the world for so many years, this was the first time she had met a man as arrogant and domineering as him!
