Semua Bab My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict!: Bab 2921 - Bab 2930

Listening to the bang of the door closing, Coco knew Lucas had left. She collapsed onto the bed, sobbing uncontrollably. Why did it have to be like this? Even though she had broken up with Lucas, why did it still hurt so much? The pain was so intense that even breathing felt excruciating.In the car, Lucas looked at the photos in his hand with Coco’s words echoing in his mind. ‘It isn’t what it looks like. He wasn't hugging or kissing me. The angle of the photo created this illusion.’Yes, the photo was taken from a certain angle. As the prince of the entertainment industry with his family rooted in the film business, he should have thought of this possibility immediately! Yet, he hadn't considered it at all. These few photos had made him lose his mind. If he had remained calm, he would have realized the misunderstandings caused by the angle of the camera. Lucas ruffled his hair in frustration. What was happening to him? He wasn’t his usual self. He neither wanted to love Coco nor

Coco called Minnie immediately, but her phone was turned off. Her heart sank as she wondered if Minnie’s phone was dead or if something had happened to her. She had a sense of foreboding. Coco got up and started searching the bar. However, the place was so noisy and crowded with lights constantly shifting from bright to dim that she could hardly see anything.Soon, she finally found the bar manager. "My friend is missing. Can you make an announcement to help me find her?" Coco asked urgently.The manager responded as if he’d heard a great joke. "Miss, your friend is an adult, right? She might have already left. You want us to make an announcement to find her? Do you think this is a mall?""But my friend's phone was suddenly turned off, and she’s nowhere to be found. If she really needed to leave, she would’ve waited a bit or left a note," Coco insisted."Maybe she stood you up on purpose," the manager suggested, looking at Coco with a hint of sympathy."No, my friend wouldn't do that

After a while, Coco returned to the table, but Minnie was nowhere to be seen. "That woman took Minnie!" Coco exclaimed. The surveillance footage outside the bar showed the woman leading Minnie into a car parked outside, which then drove away. The footage had clearly captured the car's license plate number. Lucas immediately called the city's traffic bureau and requested for surveillance to track the car. Coco waited anxiously. "Don't worry," Lucas reassured her softly. "But that woman purposely drugged Minnie. It was obvious that she had ill intentions. Where could she be taking Minnie? Could it be a kidnapping?" Coco's mind raced with all sorts of possibilities. "If it really is a kidnapping for ransom, I can pay the ransom no matter the amount. Coco, I will definitely help Minnie," Lucas said. Coco looked at him while biting her lip. “Thank you, Lucas.” She had rejected him so harshly and was worried he might refuse to help her when she called. Yet, he had shown up without h

A bodyguard shouted, “Mr. Gomez!”Coco noticed that Lucas and his men had already subdued the man wearing only a towel. The man was still struggling on the ground.“Coco, are you okay? Are you hurt?” Lucas asked, standing up and frowning slightly.“I’m fine, but where’s Minnie?” Minnie was lying unconscious on the bed. Thankfully, Minnie’s clothes were still intact. The man hadn’t had the chance to do anything to her.“Minnie, wake up! Wake up!” Coco shouted. Minnie remained unresponsive and muttered incoherently even though Coco was shaking her violently.“We should take her to the hospital for a check-up. We don’t know what was put in her drink,” Lucas suggested.Coco nodded in agreement.Two of Lucas’s men came over. One helped Minnie up while the other spoke to Lucas, “Mr. Gomez, you were stabbed by a knife. You have to be treated at the hospital before you lose too much blood...”“What? You’re injured?!” Coco exclaimed in shock.It was only then that she noticed how pale Lucas ha

After the bodyguards left, Lucas and Coco were left alone. Coco, who was still blushing, mustered up her courage and said, “Um... if you need to use the bathroom, I-I can help with my eyes closed...”Lucas couldn’t help but laugh, but it triggered his wound, causing him to wince.“What’s wrong? Are you in pain?” Coco asked in concern.“I’m fine,” Lucas replied. “I can ask my bodyguards to help me to the bathroom. You just need to help with simple things like getting me a glass of water since I can’t move around easily.”Coco sighed in relief. As long as it wasn’t helping him in the bathroom, she could manage everything else.“You must have been really scared today,” Lucas said.“A little,” Coco murmured. Minnie’s disappearance and Lucas getting stabbed had caused her to experience a rollercoaster of emotions today.“Thank you for protecting me. I don’t know how I can ever repay you…”If it was others, she could offer money or gifts, but with Lucas, she didn’t know what she could do t
