Chapter: Chapter 7Adam turned his head and furrowed his brow. He wondered why Rose wanted to talk to him.To others, Rose was just affectionately holding Adam's hand. Some of them knew about their relationship. So, they immediately dismissed the idea that something was wrong between them.Adam took Rose to a private room there. Some of Rose's friends just watched and didn't say anything.“What's wrong, Rose?” Adam let go of Rose's hand. His voice sounded quite cold for a fiancé. “What do you want to talk about?”Rose's usually friendly face suddenly became expressionless. Instead of answering, she asked, “I heard you're looking for that fat woman? Is your relationship that serious, not just a bet?”Adam narrowed his eyes. “Don't make assumptions, Rose. Did you hit your head or something that made you think too far?”“Think too far?” Rose folded her arms across her chest.“Now explain to me why you're looking for her all over town? Do you think I'm just a game?” Rose clicked her tongue.Adam was silent.

Chapter: Chapter 6"Welcome, MissNora. Would you like to go home right away or stop somewhere?" asked Charles,who immediately became Nora's driver. Charles opened the trunk and put Nora's suitcase inside.Nora sat in the passenger seatand looked around. Compared to her hometown, this city was much warmer. No wonder the season was not an obstacle to farming here.“For now, I’llstay in this city first, Uncle Charles. I’m waiting for a package from my friend.After that, I’ll go back to the plantation,” said Nora. The package Nora was waiting for was her diploma, which Tamara would send.Charles nodded.“No problem, Miss. Besides, the distance between the provincial capital and our plantation isn’t that far. It’s only about an eight-hour drive.Not far at all.”Nora’s eyes twitchedat that. ‘An eight-hour drive isn’t far?’Charles took Nora toa restaurant for lunch, then to a luxurious apartment in the city.He carried Nora’s suitcase and belongings into the apartment and immediately placed them in the maste

Chapter: Chapter 5“Where else could this bitch be?” Adam tried again, and the result was the same—only the operator answered.He tried another call, which connected after two rings.“Hello, Boss…” said the voice on the other end.“Go to Nora’s flat and hold that woman. I’ll be there soon!” Without waiting for a response from the other party, Adam hung up the phone."Nora... so you've started threatening me?" Adam's eyes flashed as if Nora were standing right in front of him.Adam immediately returned to the garage and drove his car. Earlier, he had told his men to go to Nora's rented room. Halfway there, at a red light, Adam's mobile phone rang. "Hello, how is it? Have you found the woman?" Adam asked, getting straight to the point after seeing the caller's identity.There was a sound of someone swallowing saliva on the other end of the line. Adam suddenly had a bad feeling."Sorry, boss. The rented house is empty. There's no one there!" replied Adam's subordinate."What?! Adam gripped the steering wh

Chapter: Chapter 4Nora turned her head. Her heart was pounding. There was a glimmer of hope that the person calling her name was Adam, though she quickly dismissed the thought. At least someone still cared about her. She wondered, 'Is there anyone else besides Tamara who knows I'm gone?'. When she turned around, she saw a man her age running towards her. The man waved his hand. Nora furrowed her brow, trying to recall a memory of her and this man interacting. However, the more she tried to remember, the more she forgot. "If I can't remember, I'll just ask him later." Just as Nora was about to respond, the handsome man immediately hugged a little girl standing not far from Nora. "Nora... why didn't you wait for me? I thought you were waiting for me in front of the toilet, but you've already walked this far." The handsome man immediately stroked the little girl's head gently. "Sorry, Uncle!" she said with a small smile. "Next time, don't do that again, Nora! It's dangerous if someone has bad in

Chapter: Chapter 3Inside the restaurant, Adam and Max sat apart from their other friends. Meanwhile, Rose Fisher was surrounded by Sabrina and Claire—both trying to get closer to the rising star. Some of Adam's classmates tried to take photos with her and upload them to their social media accounts. This would surely make their followers jealous. "Are you two officially engaged?" Max asked Adam, who was watching Rose taking photos with his classmates. Adam just smiled. He took a sip of his wine and replied, "I have no choice but to be engaged to her. It's a condition before I go abroad." Max was shocked. "Wait a minute!" Max stared at Adam more intently, his brow furrowed. Another question escaped his lips. "You... You're going abroad?" Adam nodded. "That's right, I'm going to continue my studies there. One of the conditions is that I must be engaged to Rose Fisher first." “Then what about that woman? For some reason, I feel like you have special feelings for her!” Max looked towards the door

Chapter: Chapter 2Nora finally returned to the cramped room she rented on the outskirts of town. The room contained only a study table, a wardrobe, a small kitchen, a refrigerator and a bathroom. Although cramped, she had been living in that room for the past three years. Now, she had finished her final exams and was just waiting for the results before continuing on to university. However, the foetus in her womb was really confusing her. What should she do now. After returning from the restaurant earlier, Nora could only lock herself in her room. Her tears flowed again. She didn't know if she was really sad or if it was because of her unstable hormones in the early stages of pregnancy. Soon after, she fell asleep with swollen, wet eyes. The days passed by. Nora had tried to contact Adam several times, but all her attempts were blocked. This made Nora really frustrated. "Should I abort this pregnancy as Adam requested?" Nora touched her bulging stomach. However, for some reason, she felt reluctant
