All Chapters of Live Flesh: Chapter 181 - Chapter 190

Juliet Wagner hung up the phone, and Jessie Watt also woke up, asking if she had been talking to Morgan Byron. Juliet Wagner confirmed it was him."Did Morgan Byron say anything?""He told me to go back.""Are you kidding? He just says to go back and you'll go back?""I didn't say I would go back, but Jessie, he will find us soon.""If he finds us, so be it. We've already hidden here. What more does he want? It's not like you were sold to him," Jessie Watt said indignantly.Juliet Wagner felt the same way. Yes, she wasn't sold to him, but Morgan Byron would definitely come looking for her. After all these years of being together, she knew him in some ways.Even if Morgan Byron came to take her back, if she didn't want to go, he couldn't force her, right?She wasn't afraid of a man being a jerk; what scared her was his unexplained persistence and deep feelings.Juliet Wagner and Jessie Watt started preparing to renovate the old house as planned. The environment was quite nice,

Juliet Wagner thought that Morgan Byron would say something more to her.Perhaps he would tell her to obediently go back with him. But soon, Juliet Wagner heard the even breathing of Morgan Byron. It seemed as if he had fallen asleep again. The use of the word "seemed" indicated that she was not entirely sure, but later, Morgan Byron did not speak. Juliet Wagner, confined in his arms, listened to the sound of his heartbeat with her face pressed against his chest. In such an environment, it would be strange if she didn't fall asleep. Perhaps because she was tired from the day, she slept deeply, and she didn't even know when Morgan Byron left.The next morning, she only woke up when Jessie Watt knocked on the door. She opened the door with a mess of hair, and Jessie Watt glanced into the room behind her."He left in the middle of the night," Juliet Wagner said.Jessie Watt's mouth gaped open, her expression one of disbelief. "Morgan Byron is the craziest man I've ever seen. What do

The rain had been pouring all night, only easing up by the next morning. The entire small county town was paralyzed by the downpour, but nowadays, with fewer and fewer permanent residents—most of the young people having left to work in cities—the remaining elderly, weak, and women stayed indoors.Juliet Wagner leaned against the windowsill, looking out at the flooded streets.Jessie Watt remarked, "While big cities may be noisy, small towns like this one have their own inconveniences."Juliet Wagner seemed somewhat distracted, and Jessie Watt could tell what she was thinking."If you really care about him, why don't you go to the hospital and see him? It would save you from being so preoccupied here.""It's just a cut on his foot from broken glass; it's not serious.""If that's the case, why are you so unsettled? You didn't sleep well last night, did you?""Regardless, he got hurt because of me.""See, you've fallen for it. He's making you feel guilty so you'll go back to him."

Juliet Wagner stopped struggling.Struggling pointlessly only drained her own energy.She quietly curled up in Morgan Byron's arms.It seemed as though she was moved by his words from earlier.Indeed, his logic was sound and reasonable.A man who would travel ten hours each day just to catch a glimpse of her—wasn't that love?But Morgan Byron's love was filled with too many secrets and hidden truths.However, Juliet Wagner had no right to complain or resist.Even now, she couldn't quite figure out her feelings for Morgan Byron.If she said she didn't care at all, even she wouldn't believe it.But if it were love, perhaps it hadn't reached that level yet.She fell silent, lying in Morgan Byron's arms, her face pressed against his chest, listening to the sound of his heartbeat.That night, Morgan Byron did not leave in the middle of the night. Later, Juliet Wagner fell asleep and slept through until the next morning. When she woke up, he was still beside her.She thought car

Morgan Byron was elusive, appearing unexpectedly when Juliet Wagner least anticipated it. He always kept people guessing. Perhaps this unpredictability was part of Morgan Byron's amusement; he enjoyed seeing the look of confusion on Juliet Wagner's face. However, Morgan Byron's embrace was still very warm.In the early autumn, the nights had already turned cool, especially in the countryside where there was no shelter from the wind. She snuggled in Morgan Byron's warm arms, watching the vibrant fireworks bloom in the sky. A vague sense of happiness began to rise within her chest. She knew she shouldn't feel this way, but it arose naturally and unbidden. She realized that she hadn't thought about Eden for a long time, while Morgan Byron appeared in her mind every day. His method of making his presence known was truly ingenious.Jessie Watt only noticed Morgan Byron's arrival later, her face showing clear displeasure. "Mr. Byron, where did you pop up from? You really have a way of know
