Semua Bab Love's Masquerade: Bab 231 - Bab 240

In a dimly lit bar where sentimental music played, Lucy looked gloomy.Faye lightly clicked her glass with Lucy's and said, "You'll naturally start talking after a few drinks."Lucy studied the composed expression on Faye's face and downed the contents of her glass in one go before leaning on Faye's shoulder."Faye, how do you manage to remain calm and composed all the time?" Lucy appeared lost and sounded confused. "I've tried, but with so much happening at once, I can't seem to calm down. I don't even know how to face reality."Faye gazed at the sparkling lights with a smile. "Perhaps it's because I've experienced many unexpected situations that things just don't affect me the same way anymore."She then threw her arm over Lucy's shoulder. "It's not that I'm calm. It's just that I've become numb."Lucy bit her lip and looked at Faye's face with teary eyes. She wiped away her tears and asked, "What have you been through overseas?"Faye pursed her lips and pinched Lucy's cheek

At first, Lucy was worried that Frank might send someone after her and Faye. But as they continued to stay in the bar, nothing happened. She eventually forgot about Frank and continued drinking with Faye. However, she slowly began to cave under Faye's sharp gaze and bit her lip. After a moment of hesitation, she eventually told Faye about what happened the previous night."I really don't know what happened. I just remember that I drank a lot when I got back, and then I lost consciousness. "In the middle of the night, I vaguely remember feeling hot and uncomfortable. Then I was in pain, I tossed and turned … When I woke up, I saw a man in bed with me."Lucy covered her face and sounded distraught. "Faye, what's wrong with us? You just had something like this happen with Cedric before, and now it's my turn. "I-I really don't know what to do now! I even wish I could die ..."The problem was that the man involved was not just an ordinary person. It was Lincoln. Lucy had no ide

After Faye and Lucy left, Lincoln stayed back. He turned and glared coldly at Nick, who lay on the ground with fresh wounds added to his existing injuries, his body beaten and battered.Seeing Nick struggling to get up, Lincoln's expression darkened. He crouched down, grabbed Nick's collar, and delivered two punches that knocked out two of Nick's teeth.Nick widened his eyes as he glared at Lincoln angrily. "Lincoln Cole, how dare you hit me? If Light Moon Designs wants to thrive in Jeorgia, it will still need my father's support in the future! You—"Before Nick could finish his sentence, Lincoln slapped him across the face."The punches just now were on behalf of Ms. Fischer. Who are you to try and sleep with her? Take a good look at yourself. "This slap is for Lucy. Remember this, Nick. Lucy is mine. If you ever dare to harm her again, you'll regret it."Nick had blood all over his mouth. His face was swollen, and his nostrils flared as he shouted, "Lincoln Cole! Do you real

Sensing Faye's irritability, Cedric furrowed his brows. He decided not to touch her and instead propped his head up to look down at her with concern. Faye was sleeping on her side, with her long hair covering part of her face. However, Cedric could still see the flush on her cheeks."Is the air conditioning in the room too high?" Cedric wondered. As far as he remembered, the temperature was usually set this way, and Faye had never complained."Was the water too hot when she showered, or is she hot because of all the drinks she had just now?" he thought. "Be a good girl, turn around, and let me take a look," Cedric said patiently, despite feeling hurt by Faye's rejection earlier. He was genuinely concerned about her.Faye shook her head impatiently. "It's nothing. I just had a bit too much to drink. I'll be fine after a good night's sleep."However, even as she said this, Faye felt disoriented and uncomfortably warm. She couldn't tell if it was because of the alcohol or Nick

Flora finished packing, changed out of her hospital gown, and was now dressed in an elegant emerald green dress, exuding grace and elegance.She glanced at the Shaw family and said, "Is it really him who wants money to start another business, or is it you who wants more money for your luxurious lifestyle?"She smiled coldly and continued, "Has Clark been spending too much time at the casino these days? Did he lose everything? If he has money to gamble, why can't he invest in his brother's business? Isn't that the new limited edition LV handbag you are carrying, Mandy? If I remember correctly, it has been on the market for less than a month, and it costs no less than a thousand, right?""And Mrs. Brown, your gold bracelet looks brand new. Did you buy it recently?" Flora's expression darkened with a sneer. "If Clint is really in such desperate need of money, just selling some of your luxury items could gather tens of thousands, if not millions, for him. Besides, when I was still a m
