Semua Bab You Wed Your Past; I Wed My Future: Bab 521 - Bab 530

Pierce was acting the same way he did before, as if the unhappiness over the last two days had never even occurred.Aleysha was still a little dazed. Smiling, Pierce gently patted her on the back. "Why are you still standing there? Are you not hungry?"She snapped out of her reverie. As she looked at the smiling face in front of her, her heart slowly relaxed. It was still the same Pierce who loved her and doted on her."I…" She grabbed the front of his shirt. He immediately held her hand and comforted her, "It's alright. It's all in the past. From now on, we'll be fine."Aleysha finally let out a sigh of relief. She lifted her face and smiled. "I'll go wash up first. Wait for me.""Okay."She went into the lounge attached to Pierce's office, which had an ensuite bathroom. As she stood at the sink washing her face, she couldn't help but think about the look on his face just now and the words he had said.What did he mean by that?But she decided to stop dwelling on it. No matt

"Oh, alright. Actually, I played chess with my dad after dinner and ended up losing track of time," Stephanie explained.In reality, Owen didn't want to play chess, but she'd insisted on playing a round with him.She rubbed her head affectionately against Adrian's chest. "I know I promised I'd be back before 10:00 pm, but this was just an unexpected situation. So, can you forgive me just this once?"Although she was the one who had lost track of time while playing chess, she called it an "unexpected situation".Nevertheless, after seeing the way she was acting, Adrian couldn't bring himself to say anything harsh to her. He hadn't really been mad anyway. Besides, it'd be very thoughtless and immature of him to get angry that she was playing chess with his future father-in-law.But just as he was about to speak, Stephanie kissed him again and murmured even more sweet nothings to placate him. That didn't feel bad at all.Adrian had intended to drag it out a little longer, but he had

When Stephanie looked up, she saw the scratches littered all over Adrian's back. They were all her handiwork. Scenes from last night flashed through her mind, and she suddenly felt a flush of heat. She quickly looked away, too embarrassed to stare at him any longer.Once Adrian had dressed, she lifted her gaze again and opened her arms, pouting coquettishly. "Hold me."Adrian scooped her into his arms and listened as she whined about how much he'd exhausted her these past couple of nights.While listening, he also sent a message, instructing Greta to inform the kitchen staff to prepare dinner."Hey! Did you hear what I said?" Stephanie looked up at him. "Tonight, you're not allowed to… not even once. I need a proper night's rest. I have to go to the office tomorrow."Adrian kissed her and replied breezily, "Alright."He'd agreed to it far too easily, which made her suspicious. After all, she knew better than anyone how easy it was for him to give in to his desires, now that he fi

"Wow! I wanna go!" Stephanie exclaimed."Go where?" Adrian asked."Check this out." Stephanie handed him her phone.Adrian looked at the screen and saw a post recommending a bar, with the location being right here in Jetterpolis."I've got a bar recommendation for everyone! I'm not famous or anything, just a regular customer, but I really love this place. It's called Reverie. The atmosphere is great, the music is nice, and the owner is beautiful! Hahaha. But I don't want to take photos of her without her permission, so I'll just show you the bar itself. Most importantly, the cocktails and mocktails the owner makes are to die for!"The post included pictures of the bar's interior and the drinks.Lifting his eyes off the screen, Adrian saw Stephanie staring at him with sparkling eyes. "It looks good to me. Why don't we head over there later?""Sure." Adrian agreed to it right away. "But you can't have any alcohol.""Don't worry. I know that. I'll just have a mocktail." Stephanie

Aleysha's attitude was so strange that the waiter shot Enola an awkward look. "Boss…"Enola remained completely unruffled. She simply gave a faint smile and expertly mixed a drink before placing it in front of Aleysha.Aleysha stared at her coldly. So this was the owner of the bar. She was such a pretty young woman.At first, she hadn't been sure whether someone in this bar had said something to Pierce. But the moment she walked in and saw the young, beautiful woman behind the bar, she felt a sense of danger.That explained why Pierce had frequented the bar several times.Could it be because of her?Aleysha didn't doubt Pierce's feelings for her, but even the strongest love couldn't necessarily withstand the temptation from a beautiful seductress.And after leaving this bar that night, Pierce had gone straight to her place to break up with her. Could the bar owner have had something to do with it?The more Aleysha thought about it, the angrier she became.She picked up the dri
