Semua Bab My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict!: Bab 3171 - Bab 3180

"Do you really believe me?" Lucas looked at Coco intently.She raised an eyebrow slightly. "What do I need to do to prove that I genuinely believe you?"“Love me a little more each day, love me until you can't leave me and want to be with me all the time."Lucas kissed Coco passionately once he finished saying that. Coco melted in his arms. "Alright. I'll love you a little more every day," she promised. ‘Until death do us part,’ she said in her heart. -Coco gradually resumed work. She had thought that her studio would have been cleared out after being missing for a year, but to her surprise, Lucas had bought the entire floor and kept her studio just as it was. He even had someone clean it regularly. When Coco arrived at the studio, everything was exactly as she had left it, without a speck of dust. It was as if she had never been gone.Coco smiled at Lucas’s effort. He had done so much for her, yet he never mentioned it, always letting her discover these things on her

"If you truly love someone, you wouldn't bear to see them get hurt. You would feel their pain too,” Coco continued as Lucas’s face flashed through her mind. “If you really loved me, you had plenty of time to search for me after we graduated, but you didn’t.""I... I was—""See? You don’t really love me. You might have had some feelings for me, but it wasn't love. And as for me, I only had a crush on you. It wasn't love either. So, there was never anything to begin with between us, and there were no ‘ifs’ between us."Loke was in a daze as Coco continued, "Even if you hadn’t used me back then, we would have ended up as strangers. That’s all between us."A glimpse of sadness flashed across his eyes as he wondered if what Coco had said was true.Coco’s words were hurtful. All these years, he'd been thinking about her, but now, she was telling him that what he had felt wasn't even love."Then... does he love you?" Loke murmured. Both of them knew who he was referring to."Lucas love

"L-Lucas..." Coco gasped. "Stop… If someone comes in, they might... they might see..."Coco’s voice seemed to bring Lucas back to reality. He suddenly stopped and held her close while burying his face in the crook of her neck. "Sorry..." he murmured.He had almost lost control because of his jealousy toward Loke. Even though he knew Coco loved him now, Loke's appearance and Coco's admitting crushing on him back then stirred up a storm of jealousy within him."What are you apologizing for?" Coco was puzzled.Lucas said nothing and continued to hold her tightly. She didn't struggle and let him hold her.After a while, Lucas whispered, "Do you still have any feelings for…" The rest of his words caught in his throat. He was afraid of her answer. What would he do if she said yes? How would this jealousy manifest, then?Sensing his tension, Coco hugged him back and said, "No. I don’t feel anything for Loke anymore. In fact, my crush on him back then was nothing. Now that I think ab

Leia hugged Coco and gently patted her back. "Alright, don't cry, my child. I’m right here.""Yeah. From now on, you'll live in Solaria, and I'll take good care of you. If you want to go back and visit the village, I'll go with you," Coco said."Sure." Leia smiled. Years of hard work had left Leia, now in her sixties, with white hair, making her look much older than she actually was.Lucas drove Leia to Coco’s apartment.On the way, Leia marveled at the bustling sights of Solaria, feeling a mix of awe and apprehension. Having spent her entire life in the village, she wondered if she could adapt to living in the city.When they arrived at the apartment, Leia's eyes widened. "Am I… going to stay here?""Leia, you can stay here, or you can stay with me at Lucas's villa. Lucas said you can choose whichever place you're more comfortable with," Coco said."There's... a villa too?" Leia stammered in surprise."Yeah.”Lucas then addressed Leia, "Since you’re Coco's godmother, you're

"Lucas is nice. He's responsible and caring. I'm glad that you've found someone who treats you well," Leia said."Yes, he's very nice to me. Leia, you can rest assured that Lucas will always treat me well," Coco replied, confident that everything they'd been through had shown her Lucas's true heart.For the next few days, Coco spent most of her time with Leia, taking her for a comprehensive check-up at a large hospital, shopping, getting familiar with the neighborhood, and even visiting Lucas's villa. The villa left Leia in awe, but she declined the offer to stay there, feeling more comfortable in Coco's smaller apartment.As Leia put it, the villa was too big, and the numerous servants made her feel awkward. She would be worried about making mistakes or being laughed at. Even getting to the kitchen required climbing stairs, which was inconvenient for her.Coco stopped suggesting Leia move to the villa and instead tried to spend more time with her at the apartment. This arrangement
