Seeing that Bruno was still sitting on the sofa, Lizzie bypassed him and walked to the other side. She picked up her backpack and put the textbooks that were placed aside into it. Without saying a word, she walked out of the apartment.Bruno heard the sound of the apartment door opening and closing, and he unexpectedly felt a sense of inexplicable loss in his heart.Lizzie walked on the road, not flagging down a car. She walked along the roadside, tilting her head slightly, squinting her eyes at the dazzling sunlight. The weather today was beautiful, the sunlight was gorgeous, as if it was smiling. Could she smile like that too? Such a radiant and enchanting smile.But she couldn't smile at all. Even if she raised the corners of her mouth, it would only be filled with bitterness and heartache.Honk honk, a horn sounded, bringing her back to reality. She turned her head towards the source of the sound.Bruno was driving a silver Ferrari convertible and parked by the side of the road.L

Lizzie let out a deep sigh as she settled into the passenger seat. The car began to move slowly forward, the mellow music filling part of the void inside it, preventing the atmosphere from becoming suffocating.Lizzie turned her gaze towards the window. She thought she could avoid him for a day, even if it was just one day, she would be willing. However, she had not lasted even half a day before she found herself trapped with him in the small space of the car. The morning's events still haunted her like a nightmare, impossible to erase.The man next to her was like a devil, entangling her tightly in his grasp with his sharp gaze and strong hands. Bruno glanced sideways at Lizzie whose thoughts had drifted far away, then back at the red light ahead. He stepped on the brake sharply.The sudden braking threw Lizzie forward, almost hitting the windshield. This abrupt jolt brought her wandering thoughts back to reality. She turned to look at Bruno, who was also looking at her. His gaze puz

Adeline stood on the rooftop, the cold wind messing up her charming curls and already chaotic thoughts.Why did everything turn out to be this way? Had she given so much only to end up empty-handed?Bruno's recent behavior had unsettled her. His concern for Lizzie was far beyond her expectations.Could it be that Lizzie had started occupying Bruno's heart? Adeline couldn't bring herself to believe it."What are you doing all alone here?" Bruno emerged from the rooftop door, finding Adeline at the edge, lost in thought.Adeline heard him but didn't turn around."Angry, huh?" Bruno came to her side, wrapping his arm around her waist."Do I have the right to be angry?" Adeline leaned into him, speaking lightly.He turned her around to face him, touching her red, swollen face. "Does it hurt?"Pulling his hand away, Adeline said, "That's not important. What's important is your heart. Is it only filled with me?""Of course. Why would you ask that?" Bruno looked at her reddened face."Bruno,

Upon seeing Lizzie's silence, Bruno stands up, "Alright, clean up here. It's late, get some sleep earlier." With that, he leaves the dining room.Lizzie gazes at the empty bowl on the table, her heart filled with confusion that she can't understand. However, she doesn't want to think about it because she can't figure it out. She quickly cleans up.When she returns to the bedroom, she is surprised to see Bruno half-lying on the bed, holding a magazine. Lizzie's steps halt at once."Aren't you sleepy yet?" Bruno drops the magazine and raises a brow at Lizzie's hesitant steps, a hint of displeasure in his heart.Lizzie takes a seat on the sofa, "I'm not sleepy yet, you go to sleep first." She picks up a book casually.But within five minutes, her eyelids start to droop, and she stubbornly remains seated on the sofa.Bruno, seeing her pretending to be strong, gets out of bed and picks her up around her waist."Yo..." Lizzie starts to speak, but her body is already heavily thrown onto the

Lizzie, clinging to the table, attempted to stand, "I... I need to go to the restroom." Barely gaining her feet, she stumbled backward. Bruno, with his quick reflexes, supported her waist to prevent her from falling. "Slow down," Bruno murmured, his arm encircling her waist, guiding her back to her seat. Just moments ago, when Lizzie staggered, Jacob instinctively wanted to assist her, but Ruoya detained him, "Jacob." Bruno looked at Lizzie, his large hand tightly gripping hers, "Lizzie." He poured her a glass of water, offering it to her. After a sip, Lizzie gained some clarity, shaking her head, "I'm... I'm fine." "You're anything but," Bruno replied, noting her increasingly flushed face and unsteady stance. He turned to Jacob and Ruoya, apologizing, "I'm sorry. Lizzie's had too much to drink. I need to take her home. I hope we didn't ruin your evening." Ruoya chuckled, shaking her head, "No problem, brother-in-law. You should take her home if she's drunk. Lizzie was never
