After a considerable amount of time passed since the incident, Lucas and I finally had contact again.He said he wanted to have a chat with me.At that time, I was walking through the airport lobby with Billy.I asked him, "What do you want to talk about? Is it about the divorce?"Billy looked up at me.I reached out and patted his head.Lucas breathed in silence, and the bustling sounds of the airport passed through the phone."Where are you right now?"I hung up the phone with a cold face.The plane was about to take off, and there were more important things at hand.Soon it would be Arthur's memorial day, and I had never taken Billy to see his biological father.A message popped up on the screen.I glanced at it and turned off my phone.

Lucas arrived on the plane right behind me.At this moment, he stood not far away, furrowing his brow.I turned around and saw him immediately.There was a hostility in his eyes, and he gritted his teeth as he spoke, "So, Billy is Arthur's son?"I stood my ground, not saying a word.Lucas sneered coldly. "No wonder, no wonder I don't remember anything from that night. Turns out, nothing actually happened!"As expected of Director White. You kept it a secret from me all these years, only for me to unknowingly raise someone else's child."He walked slowly, but his steps were long.I pulled Billy behind me, and when I raised my eyelids again, he was already standing in front of me.Lucas grabbed the hand that was holding mine firmly and said softly, "Unfortunately, Billy only recognizes me as his father."My forearm hurt, and I struggled for a moment, but he held on even tighter."After all these years of keeping it a secret, why did you suddenly tell Billy? Is it because I'm no longer of

That day, it wasn't just little Billy who was taken; Wendy's young niece was with him.They were cornered dangerously on the rooftop by a group of people.Those individuals threatened Lucas, demanding their hard-earned money."Our kids need an education, and our family depends on this place!"We can't even afford the rent; we're about to be evicted by the landlord!"You, on the other hand, are still playing at the amusement park, even booking down the entire area! Why can't you give us the money?"We just want to survive!"The cries of the two children echoed one after another.Lucas remained composed, saying, "I've already sent someone to raise the money. Please, calm down, and be careful not to harm the children."There were quite a few people on the rooftop, all trying to mediate.Lucas furrowed his brow and called me."Rachel."Hearing the cries on the other end of the phone, my heart felt like it was about to leap out.That feeling was no different from when I heard about Arthur's

For the safety of Billy, I sent him abroad.Mr. Jones stood beside me, watching as Billy boarded the plane with me.After a while, he said, "Director White, the person responsible for the accident from years ago was released from prison three months ago, and we've tracked down his current residence."Mr. Jones paused. "It's in an upscale residential area, and the house is registered under his name."The person sentenced to five years for the accident now owned a house as soon as he got out.I couldn't believe I just discovered such a major loophole.I think, before Lucas had an affair, I might have genuinely developed feelings.After all, it was a whole five years.Whether it was real or fake.He did play the role of a husband and a father quite well.That's why I forgot that I once had a crush on someone when I was young, a crush that lasted for many years.But then he died.And it seemed I had forgotten about him too.How could I be trapped in the past like this?After all, those ali

Lucas came to see me later than I had expected.But it made sense; all his attention was on Wendy these days, spending time with that aunt-niece duo just as he used to do with me and Billy.To outsiders, they all appeared to be a loving family of three.This time, he probably came home because he had mistakenly entered the wrong door while drunk.I sat on the bed, silently gazing at the unexpected visitor not far away.Lucas leaned against the door frame, his dark eyes turning towards me.I switched on the light.His facial features, strikingly similar to Arthur's, became bright and distinct under the bright lamp, instantly pulling my thoughts back to the past.Long-forgotten scenes flashed through my mind.Starting with a complex and uncertain entanglement, progressing to a passionate romance, followed by a proposal, and ultimately experiencing the separation brought about by life and death.Those memories were more vivid than ever before."It's that look again!"Lucas' voice brought
