Calista didn't think such a casual question would provoke him."No."After Charlotte was sent out, it was Lucian's turn. The results would take roughly two hours. So, Calista went out to meet Selena.She had learned about the incident from the news and called Calista to ask for the address. Then, she hurried over."Why did he jump into a lake?"She held Calista's hand and watched Lucian lying motionless on a bed in the emergency room."Have the test results come out? Is there anything wrong with him?" she asked worriedly."We're still waiting on the reports. It'll just be a little while longer. There shouldn't be anything majorly wrong. Please sit down. There's nothing to worry about."Selena blamed herself."It's all my fault. How could I have said that? He heard me say you were going to jump into the lake and went searching for you without even putting his shoes on."The bed-bound Lucian frowned."Mom …""You don't want me to talk about what you just did?"If he weren't

Everything had happened in a blink of an eye. Calista didn't know what to think. All she saw was Hector not dodging the blow.There were quite a few onlookers but no one dared to approach because of the knife the man had in hand.Calista grabbed a stick from a booth next to them and rushed at the assailants. She relentlessly struck them over their heads.Hector kicked the last one to the ground and held Calista in his arms. He took the stick out of her hands to prevent her from accidentally harming an innocent."Enough. You scared them away."The group of men was quickly taken into custody by the police on patrol. Calista stared at Hector's ripped shirt. He was dressed in black but she could still make out the blood stains in the light."We're going to the hospital."It seemed she had recently been down on her luck. She was constantly in and out of the hospital."It's just a tiny scratch. I'll be fine by tomorrow."Hector had kept enough distance. He wasn't going to let some p

Lily was eager in her movements. Their lips were just about to touch when Lucian stopped her.She didn't press on. Her pride would not allow her to continue to cling to him so shamelessly now that he had rejected her advances.The courage brought about by the alcohol only lasted for a moment. The haze in her eyes faded away as she regained clarity. She smiled deprecatingly and watched Lucian who was inches away from her face."I won't ever allow you to be with her."He pushed her off and left to the kitchen to fetch her a cold bottle of water. He tossed it to her. She shivered from the cold and instinctively tossed it away."Awake yet?"She said nothing in response."Go to sleep."…Calista had planned to sleep in on New Year's Day. But a call from Macy early that morning had woken her up."Can I help you, Macy?"Macy sounded frazzled."Madam Selena collapsed, Ma'am. Do you remember where you put away her medicine?Selena's medical reports stated that she had a heart condi

Lily's heart skipped a beat. The internet was abuzz with discussions about her and Lucian being in a relationship. With the spotlight now on them, her status in the entertainment industry would surely rise.Lucian, however, wanted to clarify the misunderstanding.This was no longer a personal attempt at breaking a rumored couple apart. He was directly contradicting what was put out there.Anyone would be able to tell the overwhelming blessings were the work of hired internet trolls."Nobody takes these rumors seriously, Lucian. The hype will die down on its own in a few days. If you issue a statement now, it'll only draw more attention to it."Before he could hang up, the manager of the PR department heard Lily speak. Lucian was now divorced.Even if he and Lily were caught together in photos, it wouldn't significantly affect the company's stock price. They had a choice of simply waiting it out. Lucian paid her no heed."Find out which media outlet was responsible for reporting

Lucian put his phone away and refused to spare Calista another glance. He simply turned and got back into the car.She lagged slightly behind when the man impatiently said, "What? Do I need to open the door for you?"Despite his harsh tone, there wasn't much anger to be heard. It sounded more like he was venting his frustrations after having been wronged.Calista violently smacked her forehead with a resounding crack. Her skin immediately reddened from the impact. It was clear how harshly she had hit herself from the sound alone.Sure enough, the weather had been so cold that it froze her perceptiveness. Why else would she think that Lucian would feel wronged? She would sooner believe that spirits walked the earth.She opened the car door and got in. She couldn't help but rub her sore neck when her gaze landed on the console between the driver and passenger seats.Had she gotten into such an uncomfortable position on her own? Lucian noticed her gaze."If I had known you'd be thi
