Lilith Douglas raised her gaze, paused for a moment, and then nodded. "Alright, I don't see anyone as a good person right now.""Life is like that; everyone gets cheated or tricked sometimes. It's normal to encounter some setbacks. You can't be paranoid about it."Lilith Douglas smiled bitterly. "I really am scared. I guess I'm just too kind for my own intelligence.""Don't blame yourself. Who could have thought she would do something like this? And before, the girl seemed quite innocent. Maybe she was triggered by something."But even if she was triggered, she shouldn't have deceived Lilith Douglas."Okay, let's not think about it anymore. Don't drink any more. I need to go to the Yan family, and I'll pass by Shen Du. I'll drop you off at your husband's place and check on him."Lilith Douglas shook her head. "No, I'm in no mood for that.""Let him give you some advice, talk about life, and you won't feel so down." Xu Nining checked the time. "It's just the right time.""I don'

Entering the lounge, Lilith Douglas was sitting on the bay window, hugging Leo Orlando's pillow, gazing at the night view outside. From here, one could overlook the entire Hua City, its grandeur and magnificence fully in sight."The view here is really beautiful," Lilith Douglas marveled."This building, being one of the tallest in Hua City, offers a unique view, especially at night; the night scenery is fantastic," he replied, taking off his shoes and joining her on the bay window, pulling her into his arms.Leaning against Leo Orlando, she felt so warm."Husband, I was actually a bit upset today," she murmured.He kissed her cheek, "Why are you upset?""I found out that Chen Guo lied to me."Lilith Douglas recounted everything she had discovered to Leo Orlando, word for word. During her recounting, she sighed several times, clearly showing her disappointment with Chen Guo."People always have their own choices. Sincerity doesn't always get sincerity in return; there's no need

"You don't have to feel guilty; I only wish the best for you," Xu Zhiyuan said, believing in his words. "When I get back home, I will start working at my father's company and learn the ropes of business. My dad has also promised me that he won't use my marriage as a bargaining chip anymore. It's a relief, really.""Congratulations," Fu Huaisen was genuinely happy for him."In truth, I'm not a good person. I ruined Chen Guo's life, and I deserve to be punished. I don't know what I can do next to make up for my sins. If it's possible..."Xu Zhiyuan wanted to ask for Fu Huaisen's help, "...if it's possible, could you try talking to Chen Guo for me?"On this point, Fu Huaisen felt helpless. "Actually, my Qianqian was also deceived by Chen Guo, pretty badly. I guess they won't be seeing each other much in the future. We'll see how things go.""So, she even deceived Lilith Douglas," Xu Zhiyuan sighed.Therefore...Chen Guo's downfall was a step she had planned herself.Her situation

The two strolled for a while, and Lilith Douglas suddenly remembered something. "Oh, right, I just got to the studio today when my brother called me.""Ji Yu?"Lilith Douglas nodded. "Yeah, he's been abroad for a long time. He said he's coming back in the next couple of days.""Did he ask you to pick him up?""I guess so, he told me his flight details.""He didn't say it directly?" Fu Huaisen asked."Do we need to be that explicit?" Lilith Douglas shrugged.Fu Huaisen didn't know much about Ji Yu, nor did he intend to. When Ji Yu had tried to harm Lilith Douglas years ago, Fu Huaisen had nearly beaten him to death. He had made it clear that Ji Yu should stay out of Lilith Douglas's life. But, he hadn't managed to keep that promise. Perhaps, due to the lack of family, Lilith Douglas couldn't completely cut ties with Ji Yu, especially given the relationship between Jin Zhe and Ji Yu, which made it hard for them to avoid each other. He had thought Ji Yu would stay away after being

Leo Orlando's words resonated deeply with Lilith Douglas, "Yes, it's because they didn't love each other enough. My brother was just too insecure, and this insecurity only grew as he tried to improve himself, which is why they ultimately broke up."In the end, it all came down to a lack of resilience.No matter what, it would have been impossible for him to match the Jin family in status. He might as well have been more confident and solidified their love. Perhaps then, he and Jin Zizi wouldn't have missed out on so many years together."A man should focus on making money, building his career, and when it comes to love, he should go all in. What good is being insecure? It's just a waste."Lilith Douglas clicked her tongue, "Why do you call him a waste?""What else would you call it?" Leo Orlando analyzed from a man's perspective, "If a man easily gives up on a relationship, it only means he didn't love her enough. There's no other reason.""But he did love Zizi," Lilith Douglas h
