Semua Bab You're Gonna Miss Me When I'm Gone: Bab 601 - Bab 610

Lucian studied the ring on Calista's finger and couldn't help but smile."You're right."However, while they were hugging, panic and confusion filled his gaze. Thankfully, she failed to catch it. Something welled up from the depths of his heart, leaving behind burning hollows as it passed through him. It hurt and caused him discomfort. He was afraid that he'd forget her.Calista couldn't see Lucian's face, nor could she guess how he was feeling. She only felt his grip around her waist tighten to the point where she thought he wanted to forcefully stuff himself into her.He probably realized that he had exerted too much force and was causing her pain. So, he quickly let go.Although it happened for only a brief moment, Calista couldn't ignore the uneasiness that his unusual behavior brought her. She frowned and carefully studied Lucian's face."Are you not hiding anything from me?"Part of him instinctively wanted to turn away as she scrutinized him. But, she cupped his face to

Timothy was silent. He had overheard their conversation despite being busy with other matters. When the flames of conflict reached him, he was a little confused, but not so much that he was left bewildered.His eyes flicked upward to meet Lucian's gaze. "Are you sure?" he mused.Was Lucian certain that he wanted to humiliate himself? Timothy was being subtle. Save for Cade, no one else caught onto the nuance behind his words.Cade could pick up on it because Cameron had tormented him. After all, no one had it worse than him. Before entering the bedroom, he had to gauge his wife's mood to decide whether to step in with the left or the right foot first. Going about it wrong meant he'd end up sleeping in the study.With the pressure he had to endure, even a pig would develop some resilience. Besides, he had probably figured out why Calista was ignoring Lucian.Lucian had never been the confident one in their relationship. So, he instinctively hesitated but ultimately said yes. Ti

Calista was not expecting to spot Lucian in the crowd the moment she looked up. He was supposed to be back in Capeton. Today wasn't a holiday. So, there weren't many people milling about in the museum. Lucian's features stood out among the distinctly foreign faces of local Lusposians. His tall stature and handsome face attracted the attention of many girls who were going up to speak to him. However, all of it became background noise to Calista.Lucian's appearance here was completely out of her expectation. He looked at Calista who was still dumbfounded and approached her with long strides. The reserved man who had been poised instantly resembled a pitiful pup who had been abandoned and had traveled thousands of miles to reach its owner.What came out of his mouth right off the bat was an accusation."You refused to answer both my calls and texts."Calista had a sneaking suspicion that he would've rested his head against her shoulder if they weren't out in public.She had be

Calista didn't do too well in the cold. That's why she barely ventured out in winter. She preferred to drive when traveling domestically. It was rare for her to be out in the elements braving the cold.Lucian pulled her into his arms and guided her into the passenger seat."Get in."The car was still running and seemed warm. Calista wanted to ignore it all and jump out of the car without a second thought. But, her rationality was still intact despite the chill."My colleagues are still here."They weren't back in Capeton where they could go their separate ways after work.They were all residing in the same hotel and were going to have dinner together. It wouldn't be a good look for her to leave them stranded unless she decided to quit her job at the museum."There was a car accident back there. The roads had already been cleared when I arrived. Your ride should be here soon."Just as he finished speaking, a sedan pulled up before them. The driver rolled down the window and spok

Calista was puzzled at first. She had been in a somewhat drowsy state. But now, she was wide awake after Lucian had schemed to sweep her into his groove. It was now settling in like a smack to the face.But, Lucian had indeed got her right where he wanted her. She had been too tired to move from the start. Now, she was lying in a soft bed enveloped by warmth while enjoying his massage. It gave her even less motivation to move. Her wavering willpower had all but fallen apart.When Lucian noticed that there was a sign of compromise, he continued to compel her in low whispers."There's a clothing store downstairs. You'll still have to go downstairs even if you want to go back to the hotel. We can go take a look. We'll decide what to do next if you don't find anything suitable."Calista was silent. If she spent the night here, she would have to be up an hour early the next morning to head back to the hotel to meet with her colleagues.She had the option of waking up early or staying
