Chapter 158

作者: Summer Knowles
Lost in his impulse, forgetting about his mother and Charlotte, he rushed upstairs and pounded on the door.

Sarah was removing her makeup, still in her evening dress, when she heard the knocking.

Who could it be this late? Zachary? But he'd just left.

Looking through the peephole, she was shocked to see James.

Sarah immediately locked the deadbolt, ignoring him, but the knocking grew louder. She yanked open the door. "James, are you crazy? What are you doing here in the middle of the night?"

"Why did Zachary drive you home? What's going on between you two? Do you like him?" James was almost manic.

Sarah replied coldly, "How is that any of your business? We're divorced!"

"Answer me! Do you like him?" James stepped closer, menacing.

"James, get out of my house! My life is none of your concern."

But James continued, "Why did he publicly admit to liking you at the gala? I didn't give you all that money so you could go after Zachary! It wasn't meant to be your stepping stone!"

    The woman clenched her fists in fury. “Whether he likes me or not has nothing to do with you!”“Then whether I talk to him or not has nothing to do with you either,” Mia replied, her voice calm but cold.“You—!”“What, you what?” Mia narrowed her eyes. Seeing how flustered the woman was made her all the more amused. “Lucas even gave me a piggyback ride. He took me out to eat. Helped me win prizes from a claw machine. What’s he ever done for you?”Jealousy flared in the woman’s eyes, but she still held on to her purpose. “Are you serious? You’re not making this up?”“Of course I’m serious. We even delivered gifts to the kids at the orphanage. You wouldn’t know what that feels like. So how about you just leave?” Mia’s voice turned sharp. She hated people who acted like the world owed them something.The woman’s face twisted with rage. She turned and stormed off without another word.Just as she walked away, Lucas came down from set. The woman brushed past him, shooting him a glare

    Even though Zachary knew what Mia was planning this afternoon, he still felt uneasy when he saw her get into Lucas’s car.During the investigation, there had been no information about Lucas’s background—which was exactly what bothered him most.Someone with no known identity somehow becoming an A-list actor? There was no way he had made it in the entertainment industry without serious backing.About half an hour later, Mia finally returned home. The first thing she did was rush in and announce excitedly, “Zachary! I’ve decided—I’m going into showbiz!”Zachary frowned slightly. “Where did that come from all of a sudden? Did Lucas put that idea in your head? Mia, the entertainment industry isn’t as easy as it looks. People have to work dozens, even hundreds of times harder than average to succeed—especially someone like you, without formal training or professional skills.”He never sugarcoated things, but he didn’t want to crush her enthusiasm either. “How about this. You can visi

    “Sasa, just listen to Zachary for the next few days, okay? Let him drive you to and from work,” Melvin said firmly.Seeing how tense both of them looked, Sarah couldn’t help but feel something must have happened.“What’s going on?” she asked.Noticing her growing frustration, Zachary finally spoke.“We’ve been pressuring Vivian too hard lately. I think she’s about to snap. And if that happens, no one knows what she’s capable of.”“So what? That gives you two the right to make decisions for me without even asking how I feel?” She turned to Zachary. “And you. After everything that’s happened, you still don’t trust me.”Melvin’s expression turned serious.“Sasa, we do trust you. But we can’t afford to take any risks. Not even the slightest chance of losing you.”Losing you... That’s the one possibility none of us could bear.Sarah looked at her cousin. “So you feel the same way?”“There are things you don’t know yet,” Melvin said gently. “It’s complicated. But because of those t

    The children shook their heads.“Mia,” one of them said, "the power went out while the kitchen auntie was cooking, so the food wasn’t finished."A little girl finally gathered her courage and stood up."But I think the spinach porridge still tastes good. Miss Mia, you should try it too."She held out her bowl, then quickly lowered her head, a little embarrassed, as if she wanted to pull her hand back.Mia took the bowl with a smile and sipped it.“Mmm, it’s actually really good. But I already ate before I came. If I hadn’t, I probably would’ve finished your spinach porridge and left you hungry.”The little girl beamed, and the other children around her broke into smiles too.From the side, Lucas swallowed hard. The spinach porridge looked thin and watery, probably nothing more than broth and greens. And it had already been touched.He’d assumed Mia would just pretend to drink it.But she didn’t.Then Mia pulled over the big bag of dolls.“Look what I brought! I went to the

    “Oh, right! With this storm, the orphanage is probably out of power again. Their building isn’t in great shape, and whenever it rains like this, the electricity goes out. This is the perfect time to bring the kids the stuffed animals—they won’t feel so scared if they have something to hug.”Lucas glanced over at her, a bit surprised. “I figured your brother would’ve already helped fix the place up.”“He will,” Mia said seriously. “But I should tell you, he set up a foundation a while ago to help renovate orphanages. They’re working through a list. The one we’re visiting today? It’s not exactly a top priority. It’s too remote, and way underfunded.”Lucas nodded. “Then let’s get going.”They loaded the car, completely filling the backseat with plush toys.With the rain tapping gently against the windows, Mia queued up some soft music and hummed along as they drove.“Lucas the Movie Star,” she said playfully, “got any juicy gossip for me? I’m bored out of my mind. The latest scandal

    Mia wasn’t ready to give up. She tried two more times, but still came up empty.Without a word, Lucas grabbed three coins from her basket and popped them into the same claw machine.The machine whirred to life. Same motion, same timing, gentle tap—hooked it clean.Mia blinked in surprise at how effortlessly he did it. But the moment she saw the plushie she wanted rising in the claw, she lit up.“You got it! You actually got it!” she clapped excitedly.Lucas shot her a smug look. Mia immediately shoved the basket full of tokens into his hands and pointed at another plushie. “That one next!”Coins in. Adjust the claw. Drop.“You got it again! You got it again!” she squealed, practically jumping up and down.Before long, they’d cleaned out nearly every claw machine in the arcade, and they still had plenty of tokens left.Mia even asked an employee for a burlap sack and cheerfully stuffed it full of every plush toy Lucas had won. “This is the best day ever!”She skipped ahead, hu
