A Love as Deep as the Sea(8)

Joaquin (Extra)1It was a sunny day in April when I first met Yulissa.The location of our first encounter was an intersection near my office.An old lady lay on the road, and it caused a massive traffic jam. Even though there were many onlookers, no one offered to help.I said to Adam, "Go down and take a look. If she did indeed have a fall, we should send her to the hospital.""But Mr. Salvatore... what if she's trying to extort money?" Adam replied."There are surveillance cameras. Why should we be afraid?" My voice deepened. Firstly, I didn't want to waste my time around here. Secondly, I thought of my grandmother, who'd passed away from failing to get immediate medical attention after a fall.A human's life was at stake now. We couldn't just focus on the minuscule possibility of being extorted.Just then, a young woman walked over before Adam could alight from the car. Holding her phone, she started recording a video as she helped the elderly woman to the side of the roa

A Love as Deep as the Sea(9)

Joaquin (Extra)5Whenever we were out socializing with our clients, out of my own selfish motives, I tried not to let Yulissa take a single sip of alcohol.I would rather drink more on my own than let her have alcohol. But she always liked to drink on my behalf.According to her, it was part of her duty as my secretary.To prevent her from drinking, I had to make an excuse that I had severe astigmatism and couldn't drive at night. By telling her that I needed her to send me home, she would be forced to abstain from alcohol.That went on until I drank so much once that I was hospitalized for stomach bleeding. The doctor banned me from drinking, so I had to stop for some time.During the fourth year of her employment in my company, she got drunk for the first time at one of the social events I brought her to.The client we met with that day was difficult to deal with. We drank a mixture of red, imported, and white wine to please him. So, it did not take long for her to become in

Second Chance at Happiness(1)

Author: Qi Yue Li 1"Since nobody will die from this, why don't you try it out?"As soon as the speaker finished speaking, the sound of someone falling into the water could be heard, and the crowd on the shore abruptly made a commotion.I felt as though I was suddenly sucked into an abyss that was completely dark that left me with nowhere to flee.I was incredibly dizzy, and my head hurt terribly. When I opened my eyes, all I saw was a patch of white. It eliminated the resonating noise in my head.Looking around, I noticed that I was inside a ward. There was a handsome and rakish man sitting beside the bed, eating an apple with one hand and toying with his mobile phone in the other.Looking at the man who gave the impression of a rich playboy, I thought hard and couldn't recall ever meeting such a person in my 24 years of living, so I spoke up with some difficulty."You..."As soon as I spoke, the man who was playing with his phone shivered with fear. I was also startled

3Zachary was the first one to react. He impatiently removed his hand from the same garment I was holding and said, "I thought you would lay low for a few days after falling into the water. Are you so eager to go out that you're here now?"Judging from Zachary's impatient expression, I could tell that he must have thought that I was stalking them.Dude, didn't you have eyes to see with?The driver behind me was carrying a dozen of bags. It was obvious that I was here first.I didn't have any favorable feelings toward the "murderer" who killed the original Liliana Hill.Not even when he possessed the distinctive facial features, thin lips, and dark eyes that a male lead ought to have...Thinking of those depictions, I suddenly wanted to laugh for no reason. I didn't understand why I wanted to laugh, but I already laughed out loud.Zachary frowned even more as he watched me laugh heartlessly."Liliana Hill, what are you laughing at?"I couldn't even laugh?Was every CEO such a

5As soon as the class was over, a group of girls gathered around Julian, trying to show that they were curious and eager to learn, but even the blind could see that they had other intentions.Therefore, I gave up on approaching Julian with the excuse of my studies.Looking at me beating my chest while looking in the direction of Julian's departure, Jasmine couldn't help but say, "Lili, what are you planning to do?"I cupped my cheeks with both hands and said, "Jas, I suddenly noticed that the more I looked at Professor Smith, the more I liked him."Jasmine couldn't help trembling and brushed off the goosebumps on her arm. "Lili, have you gone crazy again? Are you really out of your mind, as Beggar (Howard) claimed? Besides, when did you start liking nerds like Julian Smith?""People always come to their senses after suffering a blow and realize that they have fallen in love with the wrong person."I pretended to be profound.Jasmine replied disdainfully, "Stop joking. You've t

7I chose a green off-shoulder dress, and my wavy hair was neatly tied behind my head, leaving only a few strands of curly hair on my forehead to soften the angles.Looking at myself after dressing up, I couldn't help but exclaim inwardly, "Liliana Hill certainly looks good. She becomes more attractive after applying makeup. She's still a beautiful woman, despite the fact that she doesn't appear to be as delicate and alluring as Natalie Hill. People can't help but glance at her because of her lively and vibrant face."I struggled to understand why she persisted in pestering Zachary.After dressing up, I went outside to look for Zachary. He was dressed in a well-tailored black suit and sat on the couch casually. He looked just like a male model. The author really gave him a good figure. All of the girls around him couldn't stop peeking at him.Zachary didn't say anything sarcastic when he saw me approaching."Let's go."Along the way, none of us said a word. Looking at the luxury

9Sigh!"This is your fifth sigh. What's going on?" Julian put away the book and asked, "Does learning Further Mathematics make you sad?""It's not because of Further Mathematics. I suddenly realized that humans are often powerless. Is it true that if the ending is predetermined, I won't be able to change it no matter how hard I try?"I responded sluggishly. The more time I spent in this world, the more I felt like that.For instance, I wanted to avoid Natalie, but a group of NPCs would appear and cause friction between us. I tried to avoid Zachary, but a series of events would happen to bring us together. My attitude seemed to have had no effect on the novel's plot in the end.Could it really not be changed?Thinking of my ending in the novel, I felt a chill run down my spine. Liliana miscarried, was cheated on by her husband, and still refused to learn her lesson after being tortured.The man in front of me had a similar fate. I felt a pang of sadness in my heart every time I

11I was finally relieved after a few uneventful days.I began to reflect on the situation as the female lead always did. What did this imply?I'd given him a kiss. How could Julian stay so calm?I almost thought what had happened before was an illusion.Thus, I went to find Julian for tutoring again. As always, he was kind and courteous. It appeared as though the previous events had only been a dream. I couldn't help but feel intense frustration.I was already quite obvious. Why didn't Julian say anything?Did this imply that he was subtly rejecting me?I began to have doubts about myself."Lili, what's the matter with you? Isn't Further Mathematics your favorite class?"The bell hadn't rung, so Julian hadn't arrived yet. The classroom was incredibly noisy. I rested my head and arms on the table listlessly and didn't want to answer Jasmine's question at all.Jasmine continued to speak despite the fact that I didn't respond. "Because of whom are you acting this way? I heard

13I used to hate the idea of public displays of affection. When it was finally my turn, it was a rude awakening.It turned out that when someone was in love, they wanted the world to know about it.Since both Julian and I were at the university, I tried to control myself. Otherwise, I would have loved to spend every day with him.I couldn't help but smile as I remembered Julian's confession that night.Jasmine, who was sitting next to me, appeared to be saying, "Here she goes again," with her expression.As expected, one should have been in a relationship when they were young. It was boring to just live the life of a wealthy family's daughter.Time flew by, and it was already winter vacation in the blink of an eye. However, I didn't want to have a holiday at all. (I wanted to say sorry to Fabian here. I had forgotten about my father when I had a boyfriend.)I had no choice but to. I could only talk to Julian through my phone because he had to return to Broburgh for the New Yea

15"I've been searching for you for a long time, Lili. Why didn't you pick up the phone?"After getting out of the taxi, I wandered around the campus aimlessly. I had no idea how long I had been walking. Suddenly, I saw Julian hurrying toward me, looking worried.I had read the novel and knew that Julian would get a bad ending after getting close to the female lead. Why did I still insist on doing what I wanted to do?Was I too selfish?It turned out that it was extremely easy to destroy a person's confidence."I can't seem to find you anywhere, and your friend, Jasmine Quinn, has no idea where you are. I'm really worried."Julian didn't even wait for me to say anything. He spoke as quickly as a machine gun.Seeing his sweaty forehead, I couldn't help but feel guiltier.What should I do if such a good person was ruined by my selfishness?"Lili, don't stress over the rumors online." Noticing that I remained silent, Julian slowed down and assured me, saying, "I'll take care of
