บททั้งหมดของ Mr. President's Lost Wife: บทที่ 161 - บทที่ 170

Laughter echoed again. "We are realistic people, Kid. We don't like to assume. Where is your father anyway? Could he get here in an instant? I believe he can't." "Besides," the other continued, "what could he do? He's alone, while we're two. He won't win. So, just give up. That's the best way for you." Realizing that the two men were slowly approaching, Alice swallowed hard. Her eyes glanced around, hoping for other visitors. Unfortunately, no one was passing by. Sniffing Alice's thicker fear, the two men smiled slyly. They could not wait to catch her. However, just as they were about to act, a laser beam hit the eyes of one of the men. Spontaneously, he blocked it with his hand. “What is that?” He squinted at the light. Seeing his friend's response, the other man stared in the same direction. "What is it?" "I don't know. It was like there was a laser shooting into my eyes." "Laser?" He squinted. Unexpectedly, the

"Alice," Edmund moved closer to his wife. He stopped at a distance that felt right—neither too close, nor too far to convey a whisper. "Can we talk now?" Alice took a deep breath. Her head nodded faintly. "Yes." "How are you? That guy didn't hurt you, right?" Alice glanced thinly. She didn't expect that Edmund could still make small talk. "Fine. They didn't touch me. Sky protected me well." Edmund nodded. A faint sigh escaped his mouth. "Thank God. Then, how do you feel? Any better?" Alice froze. Her heart was turbulent, awakening feelings that she didn't understand. "You still mad at me?" Edmund asked carefully. Alice shook her head slightly. "I don't know. I also don't understand what I'm feeling right now. But I don't think it's anger." "Are you disappointed?" Alice closed her eyes for a moment. In the darkness and silence, she tried to find the answer. "I

Alice shook her head. "No, I'm not sad. I'm just relieved because Sky has been excited again. Her face looked so dim when we just got here. For the first time, I saw she wasn't excited about going on an adventure. She missed you too much." Smiling wryly, Edmund stroked Alice's back. "But now, she's cheerful again. You don't need to worry." Alice glanced at Edmund lovingly. "Yes, because of that, I am very grateful to have you. Sorry we disturbed your work. Scott must have panicked because you followed us here." All of a sudden, Edmund's expression stiffened. After a few blinks, he muttered, "I don't have a job anymore, Alice. How could you bother my work?" Alice's head spontaneously pushed back. "What do you mean?" Edmund took a deep breath. "I resign." "Are you serious? Why? The company is your dream, Ed." Edmund shook his head lightly. "I used to think so. But apparently, I was wrong. Living happil

The woman wearing a butterfly pin nodded. With sparkling eyes, she showed off Sky's photo on her phone. Sky was standing with her arms outstretched. A large waterfall looked so beautiful behind her. "Look at this. Isn't she adorable?" The others nodded in agreement. "Yes, she looks very happy. She must feel free there. Oh, I thought she was going to hug me." "But I think her pose in the photo I received is the cutest." All gazes immediately shifted to the woman in the white blazer. "What photo did you get?" She took out her phone proudly. "Look at how cute her expression is here! If I had been there, I would have pinched her cheeks." The other two women scrambled to check. When they saw Sky standing in the middle of the bridge surrounded by treetops, their laughter spread to the air. "Oh, why does she open her eyes and mouth that big?" "And why does she look like s

For a long time, Lucas bent down and hugged his wife's grave. He wanted to give all his attention and affection to her. Unfortunately, no matter how many sweet words he said, no matter how sincere the apology he offered, he realized. His wife would never answer. He could only cry and lament his fate until he fell asleep, hoping that Rachel would come in his dream. When Lucas woke up, nothing had changed. Rachel was still gone and he had to let her go. The only thing he could think of to survive was to return to the forest house—the place he had once promised as home to his beloved wife. *** All the way home, Lucas felt empty. Moreover, Canis was not beside him on the plane. His mind was easily carried away by feelings that he should have reconciled with long ago. "Is it appropriate for me to continue living after what I've done?" "Is there any reason for me to rise again?" "What is the meaning of life to m
