Sharon did not expect Sasha to be so compromising. She suddenly felt sad for her."You don't have to do this for Mom and Dad's sake." Sharon spoke loudly so that everyone could hear though she was addressing Sasha. "These things are not worth your future happiness. So, if you want to cancel the wedding, we will support you."Lucas turned pale at once, and he looked at Sasha, at a complete loss of what to do. He pulled back the foot he put out in preparation to walk over to her and waited nervously for her "verdict."However, before Sasha could speak, Lana hugged Lucas from behind. Her arms were surprisingly strong despite being very thin. They were wrapped around Lucas' waist so tightly that it hurt."Don't marry her, Lucas! You love me, and you know it!" Lana wailed, looking out from behind Lucas' head to glare at Sasha fiercely."Lucas loves me, not you! He will never marry you! Forget it!"Sasha did not even look at Lana, though. She treated Lana as if she did not exist."Luc
Sasha's calmness fell apart when she saw the knife. She knew that if she did nothing, Lana would really stab Lucas due to how unstable she was right now.Seeing the internal struggle Sasha was going through, Sharon grabbed her hand before she could respond."Sasha, don't." Sharon shook her head minutely. Even her normally confident expression had a trace of fear in it.Sasha really did love Lucas. She loved him so much that she would definitely die for him. But she did not want to die here, nor did she want to die by the knife of that crazy woman. She looked at Lucas, who was also looking at her.His eyes held terrible grief as well as deep love.Sasha's heart trembled sharply, and fear gripped her tightly."Sasha." Lucas was smiling, his voice was amazingly steady. "No matter what anyone says, I only need you to believe that I really do love you.""Luc …" Sasha was about to speak when she saw his face darken. He reached back to grip Lana's wrist.Startled, Lana's hand pushed f
Sasha did not know when she started crying. Her face was now covered in tears."Lucas …" She opened her mouth, but no sound came out.Lucas' face gradually lost color, and his strength weakened with the loss of blood."Sasha." His voice was really soft, showcasing just how weak he was right now.Sasha's blank eyes turned to look at him."Thank goodness." Lucas smiled a genuine smile at her. "Thank goodness it wasn't you."Thank goodness she was not the one who got stabbed by the knife.Thank goodness she was not the one who got infected.Thank goodness she would not be the one who would die."Lucas Hermes, you're a complete idiot!" Sasha burst into tears, unable to control her emotions any longer.Sharon rushed over to hug her, her cold gaze having a little bit of sympathy and gratitude in them when she looked at Lucas.The sounds of hurried footsteps suddenly sounded in the spacious parking lot.A team of heavily armed police streamed in from all corners of the lot, surrou
Lana and Lucas' story was not considered a secret in the wealthy social circles of Bartham. When Walter and Martha tried to get Sasha to break up with Lucas, they went as far as to give her the most complete version of the story.Sasha knew every stupid thing that Lucas had done for Lana. She even secretly got jealous because of it. She never told Lucas about all these things. It was to the point that Lucas still thought that Sasha was unaware of his previous relationship. Because of that, when he heard what she said to Lana, he could not care about the wound on the back of his waist as he tried to push himself up from the floor."Sasha …"The policemen quickly stopped him. "Don't move! Your wound will be torn open again!"Hearing the commotion, Sasha turned around to shout at him coldly, "If you don't want to die, you better fucking lie down, Lucas! If you move again, I will kill you myself!" She did not give him any respect at all."... Oh." Lucas chickened out at once, hunching
"Move!" After the ambulance left, the police marched Lana into the police car that had just got there too.The parking lot became quiet once more.Sharon, who was alone, took a deep breath and said out loud, "You can come out now. The show's already over."Dylan and Kevan, who were hiding behind a big car, were shocked. They looked at each other before coming right out."Did you two plan this?" Sharon tried her best to ask calmly even though she was feeling all kinds of negative emotions in her heart.Kevan said nothing.Although Dylan had not participated in anything, he remained silent, too, for he did not want to betray his friend. He did not dare to look into Sharon's eyes as he was afraid that she might get a hint from his face.However, the way he looked down with his eyes drifting here and there was just proof of his guilt to Sharon.Her heart sank gradually as her voice trembled. "You really hate me that much?"Her sudden question confused Dylan. "What?" He frowned bec
Although Dylan said he was going to leave, he did not leave at once.It was not because of Kevan's persuasion but rather because Dylan had some tact himself. He had to stand together with Sharon at this time—even if he was only acting.The ballroom upstairs was not in chaos like they thought it was. The guests remained in their seats, and the waiters were bringing the dishes over in an orderly way. There was just a hint of discomfort on everyone's faces.Dylan and Kevan walked through the large ballroom to return to their seats.Xander and Cecilia's seats were already empty, and Martha's seat was also empty too. They had gone to accompany Lucas to the hospital. He did not know how Sharon informed everyone of what happened, but as the guests did not leave, he presumed that she did not tell the whole truth.He did not know if she had told Walter about the divorce issue. He guessed that she did not because she had more tact than him, and she knew to look at the big picture more than
As Dylan listened, some irritation appeared on his face."Me and Sharon …"He had just started speaking when Kevan interrupted him. "Let's have a drink too."Dylan glared at him with dissatisfaction.Kevan glared at him as a warning not to speak without thinking. After they had finished drinking, Kevan deliberately asked, "Are you drunk? Do you want to go to the lounge next door to rest for a bit?"Kevan's words successfully got everyone to stare at Dylan's face. They watched him with concern. Louis spoke again. "Sharon, Dylan does look strangely flushed. Maybe you can tell your dad to have Dylan sent back home to rest first?"Dylan frowned at once, and he refused. "No need. I'm not drunk."However, everyone else had a different idea than him.Walter heard everything that was said, and when he saw that Dylan refused to accept, he personally came over to placate him. "There's nothing else left to do here. You and Sharon can go first." Then, he instructed Sharon. "I'll have someo
"Huh?" Kevan rarely apologized, so Sharon thought that she had misheard. But Kevan repeated himself once more. "I'm sorry.""For what?" Sharon was more curious and confused than demanding to know answers."Today's incidents have nothing to do with Dylan," Kevan said, "I was the one who caused them." He never liked explaining himself to others, but he also did not want his best friend to take the blame for him.Sharon blinked. She could not understand. "Why?" He had no reason to ruin the wedding. He was not familiar with the newlywed couple, and he had no problems with either the Hermes family nor the Davis family. No matter how she looked at it, he seemed to be taking the blame for Dylan."I wanted Lana to suffer more." A sinister look flashed across Kevan's eyes at the mention of Lana.After Lana crashed her car into Larissa to hurt her, she became a wanted fugitive after vanishing before the start of her trial. Sharon knew a little about Kevan and Larissa's relationship. So, i
