032.“You seem to be in a very good mood today, Lucas.” Alan took a seat on the chair facing Lucas’s desk as he studied his best friend’s expression. He hadn’t seen Lucas this happy ever since the divorce with Janette six years ago.He wondered what could have made him like this. Lucas swayed in his chair. “Alan, my buddy, you wouldn’t believe that I ran into Janette and Ethan at the amusement park yesterday,” he began and Alan’s ears perked up to hear more. “She actually wanted to run like she used to and be all cold and savage on him, but I developed the courage to speak to her and got her into making me spend time with Ethan,” he smiled, remembering how Janette had stared at him while he was running around with Ethan.She might think he didn’t see her, but he was watching her from the corner of his eyes. He could see how she spoke with Sophie with her eyes fixed on them, and even though he had no idea what she was talking to Sophie about—something he had planned to ask later—he di

034. Janette paced the living room as she waited for Liam to come pick them up. He'd already told them he was on his way, and she kept praying that he made it; that he wasn't just telling her lies. They were to go out for family dinner today, and this was the last chance she was giving him to prove himself. To prove that he really cared for their family. Soon, they heard the honk of a car. "Uncle Liam is here!" Ethan yelled as he rushed down the stairs. "Careful, Ethan!" Sophia rushed after him and was able to scoop him into her arms before he got to the end of the stairs. "Whoa, aren't you excited today." she chuckled, descending the stairs and setting him down. Ethan giggled, rushing into Janette's arms. "Oh my little ray of sunshine," she pecked his forehead. "You're a fine young man." Ethan smiled, wrapping his tiny arms around Janette. "You're beautiful, Mommy," he said, his smile so innocent that Janette couldn't resist kissing his cheeks. Janette turned to face Sophia. "

036.Aunt Maryanne was being attended to by Rosa when Janette rushed into the ward. She stopped in front of Aunt Maryanne’s bed, wondering if Aunt Maryanne would recognize her.Aunt Maryanne’s eyes widened on seeing Janette. Her eyes first darted to the name tag on Janette’s coat before returning to Janette’s face. “Jane,” she called, her voice barely above a whisper. It’s been years since she last saw her, and she couldn’t believe Janette was standing right in front of her, looking all stunning abs slightly different from years ago. “Is this really you?” she asked, stretching out her hands to Janette.A tear dropped from Janette’s eyes as she rushed to hold Aunt Maryanne’s hand and placed it on her cheek. She really wanted to hug her, but she couldn’t because the woman hadn’t fully recovered. “Aunt Maryanne,” Janette called, and they smiled at each other. “I missed you so much.”Aunt Maryanne rubbed Janette’s cheeks and smiled. “It’s nice to see you again after so many years. How hav

038.Lucas stared at Janette all through his gala, his mind filled with thoughts of what Aunt Maryanne had told him. Had she really changed that much that he didn’t know her anymore? He wouldn’t blame her, though. It was all his fault. He was the reason she’s changed and is now cold and indifferent towards him.Janette just wanted the gala to be over so she could leave. Sitting here with him was very uncomfortable for her. When it was time for auctions, she folded her arms without showing any interest in it.Meanwhile, Rosa and Alan faced each other, Rosa feeling like tearing him to shreds. “Well, my night just got bad. What the heck are you doing on the same table with me?” she asked.Alan chuckled while rubbing the back of his head nervously. “Can’t you see it? Destiny is bringing us together. I think we are meant to be.”Rosa snorted. “You really think so highly of yourself, don’t you? Do you think any woman would want to be with a bully like you?”“C’mon, Rosa, that was years ago.

040.LUCAS' MANSION "You did what?!" Alan couldn't believe what he just heard. "You cried and grabbed onto her legs?" he asked, laughing and walking around the room.Lucas swayed the wine glass in his hand, the contents of the wine swirling as he stared into space. "It's not funny, Alan." he sighed, lowering his head.Alan laughed again and clapped his hands. "It's funny as fuck, Lucas," he chuckled again. "Who would have thought that the feared and famous billionaire Lucas Harry would be so vulnerable to the extent of crying and clinging to his ex wife for dear life?"Lucas scoffed. "Laugh one more time and I'll cut your allowance. You know I can do that!" he threatened.Alan scoffed. "Oh please, that won't affect me. I could just leave your company and finally take over my father's company. I already have enough money to get by." Lucas rolled his eyes and sat down, his expression turning thoughtful. He had only done that at the spur of the moment. He used to be aloof and cold to o
