Abigail Bernstein was a quiet and obedient girl who seldom say NO to her father’s decisions. Even when it’s about her marriage.
To save their family’s company out of bankruptcy, her father arranged her to marry Diarmuid Althoff, the grandson of a billionaire. But on their wedding day, the groom did not appear. Abigail was disappointed but could do nothing about it.
Alone and boring on wedding night, Abigail accepted to replace her colleague’s shift. At her workplace, the hospital, she saved a wounded man being hunted down by gangsters, and made out with this stranger to blow off steam.
The stranger, however, turned out to be her husband that did not show up at the altar.
Lulu bit her lip. “Stop it…” Before she could finish, Zachary’s lips were already on hers.He was holding her very tightly. Despite Lulu’s disgust, she could not refuse for appearance’s sake, so she pretended to be embarrassed. “Don’t…” Zachary brushed against her cheek. “We’re lovers.Kissing is fine.” Lulu said, “But I forgot about that.” “You’d…
“Good.” Ricky nodded. “It’s late.You should go!” Lulu told him then. Ricky refused. “I would like to stay with you a little longer…” “We have all the time we need eventually, but Zachary would get suspicious if he sees us together.That’s going to cause unnecessary trouble.” Ricky understood that the only thing he could do…
“Yeah?” He lifted her chin slightly and leaned in to kiss her.It was just a peck at first, and soon it escalated with passion. He came on so strong that she almost lost her balance, but he caught her slender, soft waist. It felt so delicate like a willow branch, as if he could snap…
“What was I like before?” he asked. Abigail simply pointed at the table instead of continuing the verbal spar. “Put it in.” She was about to leave after that when Diarmuid caught her. “Stay,” he said, and kept a hand around her as he started to open the safe. Abigail did not look at it…
Diarmuid took her hand and pulled her into his arms then. “I would have shown you so much earlier if I knew.” Abigail wrapped her arms around his neck, smiling, “It’s not too late. After all, they were still young, and had all the time they needed. Diarmuid smiled and gave her a peck on…
They were not professional crisis negotiators—they were not saving anyone even if they went up there. Moreover, with so many journalists waiting downstairs, they might get dragged into it. “Don’t you find it weird?” Abigail gave Ricky a look after they entered the elevator. “What’s weird?” Ricky did not get it—perhaps he was not as…
“Around the twentieth floor.I don’t dare to come out because of the journalists.” “Yeah, I know.I’m coming.” With that, he alighted. Since he had been in touch with Globe Tower’s staff constantly for his wedding, he easily entered the building through the backdoor, eluding the journalists as he went to Abigail upstairs. He found them…
James was left speechless-how could she be so difficult, even glaring at Diarmuid like that? Flashing an apologetic smile at Diarmuid, he quickly said, “She didn’t mean it. Maybe she’s just confused why the wedding was called off, so…” “That’s enough.” Diarmuid said, but he did not take offense-he naturally could see that Erin was…
Ricky remained where he was, but he taunted Zachary. “Lulu loved me even before she lost her memory. Even now, the feelings she has for me remain in her body, so you can’t stop us.” Zachary did not argue and headed straight for his car. Lulu followed him and studied him gingerly as she got…
On the other hand, Lulu only breathed again when Zachary left. She was convinced for a second there that Zachary would…She slowly closed her eyes, hiding her panic! Meanwhile, Abigail received a phone call in the morning. It was from Dennis Turner, director of Hotmesh, asking if she had made a decision since he would…
