Had Theo not been lazy and let them go on inspection first, his best friends wouldn't have died. If it weren't for him, maybe things would've turned out differently.This thought had haunted Theo for nearly six years, torturing him endlessly. He didn't want to be driven mad by it, so he shifted that pain onto someone else.Out of selfishness, he wanted Gregory to share in his suffering, as he couldn't take it anymore.He knew full well that what he was doing was wrong, but he still did it anyway.But Gregory kept softening toward Anathea, caught in a conflict. Theo couldn't understand it at all.He didn't get why Gregory would go soft on her.To Theo, Anathea was just a fragile, clingy woman. She was delicate but useless. Besides her pretty face, she had nothing to make Gregory fall for her.It wasn't until that time, when Anathea had drunk two glasses of wine with scorpions without hesitation to protect her colleague, that he was stunned by her courage.He saw a different side

Adam nodded slightly, and Anathea helped him into the car.It wasn't until she was seated beside him and left the prison behind that the tight knot in Anathea's heart finally began to loosen.She'd really done it—she'd truly gotten her father out of that dark, hopeless place that had held him captive for nearly six years.However, for some reason, she didn't feel all that happy inside."Nat, what's wrong? Is something bothering you?" Adam asked with concern.Anathea snapped out of her thoughts and shook her head. "No."Adam looked at the faint crease in her brow. He knew her well enough. But if she didn't want to talk about it, he wouldn't press her. Instead, he changed the subject. "How's Mom? Is she doing any better?""Yes, she's completely recovered. She misses you a lot." Anathea's furrowed brow finally relaxed a little."I miss her too." At the mention of Fiona, a smile lit up Adam's face. "It's been so many years. I wonder how she's doing now.""She's just as beautiful a

"If I lose you, I would go even more insane," Gregory said, giving a small smile.Anathea's heart jolted when she heard him say, "Anathea, I think I'm insanely in love with you."Her tears fell heavily. "You're not just insane but a liar too."She buried her face in his chest, soaking a large patch of his shirt with her tears. But Gregory felt nothing but overwhelming contentment.He might be a lunatic, but he truly wasn't a liar.Back in the private chapel, the moment he'd learned that Anathea was in danger, he hadn't even felt the pain from the injuries on his back. There had only been one thought in his mind—to find her.Thank God he'd made it in time.Thank God his Anathea was unharmed.Thank God he'd finally gotten to say the words that had been buried in his heart for so long.Thank God… for everything.Sirens wailed in the distance—police, ambulances, and firetrucks. Anathea could barely hear them now. Her consciousness was slipping; she'd used the last scraps of her

"What are you doing, Adrian?" Louie asked, annoyed."One of the other lawyers in the car got a few scrapes. Go take a look at her." Adrian made up an excuse.Louie pressed his lips together. "Lawyer? Don't you know I hate lawyers the most?"Adrian chuckled. "You're still holding a grudge just because a lawyer dumped you? You're being ridiculously petty.""It's none of your business!" Louie snapped."Just go check on her. It's not going to kill you. What, do you think that lawyer might be your ex or something?" Adrian dragged Louie along, believing there was no such coincidence in the world.But the moment he opened the guest room door and saw Giselle sitting on the hospital bed reading through legal documents, Louie froze in place, his expression turning grim.Giselle looked up at the sound, and their eyes met. Her brows furrowed as well.For a moment, the room was filled with strange, heavy silence.Adrian saw the looks on both their faces, and a flash of realization crossed

Gone was the sarcastic attitude Louie had around Anathea."You guys have been broken up for so long, and you still can't let it go?" Adrian couldn't help but try to comfort him."I told you—it's not that I can't let it go! I just… hate her to death!" Louie cried even harder."Shut up." Gregory couldn't take it anymore and warned coldly, "If you keep wailing, I'll have you personally escort that lawyer out."Louie immediately went silent, but since he'd just been crying, he was sniffling and hiccuping. It didn't match his image at all.Adrian pressed his lips together to hold back a laugh."By the way, she was asleep for the past two days. Check her over and see how her condition is," Gregory instructed, his tone carrying a hint of concern.Anathea had fainted that day and slept for two whole days—deeply too, which was completely unlike her. He was worried something might be wrong with her body.Finally managing to calm down, Louie wiped his nose with a tissue and looked at Greg
