And after that, she would look for an excuse to destroy the drawing. That way, Coco's actions today would become a joke!Aubrey wore a confident smile while she envisioned her plan. However, her confidence shattered when someone suddenly shouted, "$15 million!"Startled, Aubrey turned her head to look at Lucas in disbelief. He had actually...bid $15 million!Coco couldn't believe her ears. $15 million?! Did she mishear, or did he make a mistake?!The auctioneer on stage was clearly taken aback by the $15 million bid as well. It took him a moment to say, "Mr. Gomez has bid $15 million. Is there a higher bid?"Silence blanketed the venue. $15 million for a piece of artwork by an unknown comic artist? The guests may be rich, but they're not stupid!"Are you...are you crazy?" Coco grabbed Lucas' arm and asked in a whisper."It's a portrait of me that you drew. I think that price is reasonable," Lucas replied."But...""The Gomez family intended to donate the money to charity anywa

Coco was relieved to hear that. "Okay, I'll do it," she said."You need to make some preparations for the Comic Con. You have to come up with some promotional phrases," Minnie began discussing the Comic Con details with Coco.While that was happening, Caleb arrived at Lucas’ office."I can't believe you actually spent $15 million to purchase your girlfriend's drawing. Looks like you're more serious about this than I thought," Caleb remarked.Lucas gave his friend a casual glance. "Did you come here just to say that?""I came to warn you about Aubrey. You should keep an eye on her. I'm worried she might do something reckless," Caleb expressed his concern."Shouldn't you try to talk her out of it instead of telling me about it? If I find out that she did something bad, do you think I'll forgive her?" Lucas responded coldly.Caleb chuckled dryly. "I’m warning you about it because, with your abilities, you can definitely minimize the damage if she does try something. If I didn't war

"Oh, so that's what you wanted to ask," Lucas finally knew.Coco nodded, and she quickly added, "But... it's alright if you don't want to talk about it. It's not really important..." She lowered her head, hoping to hide her flushed face. "You changed out of the gown yourself," Lucas replied."I did?" Coco's head snapped up, disbelief evident in her eyes."Yes, you changed yourself, but... I helped too," he explained. "After I carried you home last night, you woke up and complained about how uncomfortable the gown was. You desperately wanted to take it off. The gown had a zipper at the back, and you could only pull it down halfway. You made me help you unzip it.""And then...?" she nervously prompted."And then?" Lucas' lips curved into a smile, unbeknownst to himself. Last night, when she removed the gown, he turned around so that he wouldn't see her undress.But when she struggled with the zipper, she nuzzled up against him, tugged at his waist, and pleaded, "Unzip it for me

"Do I look like someone who would take back the things he's given out?" Lucas asked."Well... okay then, thanks for the gifts," Coco expressed her gratitude. "By the way, there's a Comic Con next week. The magazine company is organizing a small autograph session for me there. Are you free to come look around after the autograph session?""A Comic Con?" he asked."Yup. The exhibition hall is open until 10 PM. We're free to walk around the place before then. Of course, if you're busy, I can walk around on my own after the autograph session," she said.She often attended Comic Cons alone. If Minnie had free time, she would ask Minnie to go with her. But this time... she really wanted to go with him. She wanted him to learn a bit about her interests, and if he could also find enjoyment in them too, that would be even better."Alright. Let me know the time and place," Lucas answered.Coco's face brightened with a radiant smile upon hearing his response.Her smile stunned him slightly

"You seem to be feeling really smug about the fact that you look like Serenity," Coco retorted. "It's not uncommon for two people to look alike, but you're going to the extent of imitating Serenity’s hairstyle and the way she dresses. You're trying to impersonate her and become her substitute! Do you really think Lucas would fall in love with a substitute?""So what if I'm a substitute? I love Lucas, and I don't mind being a substitute for him!" Snow said."I would never want to be a substitute. Even if I temporarily gain the affection of the person I love by being a substitute, it's nothing to be happy about. I'm simply taking advantage of someone's vulnerability! When the real person appears, I’ll become utterly insignificant," Coco said ruthlessly.Snow's expression turned unpleasant. She tried to embarrass Coco, but she was the one being humiliated instead."What do you know? Lucas loves Serenity so much that he would never fall in love with anyone else! When he was abroad, he
