《Twinkling Star》 Chapter 1 Handsome Man Got Into the Room Chapter 1 Handsome Man Got Into the Room ¡°Hmm -- it¡¯s hot...¡± Elizabeth Lawrence opened her eyes in a daze, stretched out her handzily, touched the switch beside the bed, and clicked it several times. But it was still dark inside. There was no electricity in the rented house, and the old wall-mounted air conditioner was ¡®on strike¡¯. The doors and windows were closed. LH City was like summer all the year, and it was hot and stuffy in February. Elizabeth felt that she was already drenched in sweat. Her wet skirt clung to her skin, making her feel ufortable. ¡°Shit! Why there is power failure at night in a hot weather?¡± Elizabethined while she got up from the bed. She couldn¡¯t stand the hot night, so she stumbled to the sliding ss door of the balcony, raised her hand and opened the curtain. The heavy curtains were pulled aside. As she pushed open the sliding ss door, a tall ck figure suddenly came into her view. What the hell?! Suddenly, Elizabeth was scared dumbfounded. There was a momentary pause in her thoughts, and the dark figure had covered her. The ck figure staggered in, with arge ck hand stretching out.Content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. Elizabeth could not make a sound for her mouth was covered by his hand. There was a strong smell of blood... The cold touch from this big hand made Elizabeth shiver. She held her breath and dared not act rashly. ¡°Go to the bed!¡± Deep and cold voice sounded in the ear of Elizabeth. Elizabeth¡¯s body shook uncontrobly. She forgot that she could move her legs out of fear. The figure seemed to be impatient. He raised his hands, picked up Elizabeth and threw her straight onto the bed. ¡°Ouch!¡± because it was a wooden bed, Elizabeth felt pain in back at the moment she fell on the bed. While Elizabeth was still struggling in pain, the dark figure was pulling off some equipment on his body. Then, a cold body pressed on Elizabeth¡¯s body. In the darkness, out of fear, Elizabeth pushed against the body with hands, resisting instinctively. It was only when her hands identally touched a muscr chest that she realized it was a man! Elizabeth was frightened and resisted with more force. But the man pressed nimbly against her struggling legs, and the tight muscles of his arms closed around her until she was suffocating. It came too suddenly. Elizabeth could not help but cry because of fear and helplessness, Elizabeth shed tears, feeling the man¡¯s big hand was as cold as a vampire from the dark night on her burning face. ¡°I...won¡¯t hurt you... as long as... you don¡¯t move, don¡¯t make a sound...¡± He seemed to be in pain, but he tried to speak slowly and to soothe her gently. Elizabeth was stunned and then stopped crying suddenly. A few figures outside ss sliding in the balcony door appeared the corner of her eye. They seemed to havee down hanging wirerope, with weapon like a sickle in hands. At this moment, Elizabeth was shocked to see that. She wished someone would tell her that it was actually shooting a movie! But obviously this was not a movie!! ¡°Ah!¡± Elizabeth cried out nervously to see the figures seem to have the intention toe in. The man on top of her, startled, ran his cold fingers through her hair, then pressed the back of her head, lowering his head and kissing her lips without warning. In a sh, Elizabeth was nk in mind. At that moment she could only fell a hint of coolness from his thin dry lips faintly tinged with the smell of blood. The breath of the man wrapped her, brewing ambiguous hormone gradually. She wore light lemon fragrance, which was sweet. For the man, it was a temptation he had never had before. She has a soft body and delicate lips. He could feel the warmth of her body... Every little bit of her made him entranced. She was delicious. Little by little, he was no longer satisfied with the kiss... He had never a second thought about a woman, but when he kissed this woman, he could not even control himself. The man lifted Elizabeth¡¯s head and stretched out his tongue to feel her lip lines. Then he sucked her tender lips heavily, crushed them again and again and pried open her teeth to enjoy the kiss that made him hard to extricate it. He realized that he was addicted to her kisses. Desire controlled his brain, and he couldn¡¯t extricate himself. The man¡¯s restless hand instinctively lifted the woman¡¯s skirt. ¡°Hmm --¡± Elizabeth widened her eyes and clenched her hands into fists. She beat him again and again on his back, but the more she struggled, the heavier he kissed her. It was her first time to be kissed so passionately by a strange man. Didn¡¯t he promise not to touch her? This man did not keep his words, which made Elizabeth became angry from embarrassment. She struggled from beginning to end. Every time she avoided, he kissed her again. Was he addictive to her? After a long while, his tight body rxed slowly. He let go of her sweet lips slowly. Elizabeth felt burning pain on her lips. Elizabeth felt ashamed at that moment and produced a kind of unprecedented loathing feeling to him. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I will be responsible for you!¡± The man spoke with the corner of his lips raised. Instead of continuing with his next move, he realized his loss ofposure and rolled down from Elizabeth. He sat up,boriously, and looked across the balcony. Should the people left?! The man breathed a faint sigh of relief. Chapter 2 She Felt Distressed for Him Chapter 2 She Felt Distressed for Him Elizabeth became angry from embarrassment, ¡°Bastard!" At the moment the man turned his head, the sound of p was sounded in the room loudly. Elizabeth raised her hand to p on the man''s face while she was scolding, but it made the man fainted on the bed. Er -- did she hit him too hard? All of a sudden, Elizabeth was aghast. When shepletely adapted to the dark environment, she saw the ck profile of the figure in the room gradually with a little light. Elizabeth took out the candle and lighter from the drawer of bedside desk. She lit the candle and stood it in the small white porcin te on the desk. It was quiet at night. After the dark clouds passed by the moon, the moonlight shone the room, sprinkling on the man''s body. He had a short broken hair, carved face, a high nose and thin dry lips with sharp edges. Further down, it was his sexy corbone and muscr chest... He looked mature. His hair was broken and untidy. His face was painted and his chin was covered with stubble. Although he was unkempt, he could hardly hide his handsome appearance. He was really handsome with mature sexy and masculine! Well? Why was it sticky? When she recovered from the appreciation of his body, Elizabeth felt that her hands were a little sticky. Subconsciously, she lowered her head and saw a roughly 10-centimeter bloody tear on the left side of the man''s eight-pack abs, with blood oozing out. There was lots of blood! Elizabeth hurriedly picked up the mobile phone from the bedside table and was ready to call the police, but she hesitated. In that case... Was he running away from his enemies?! If she gave him away, wouldn''t she put him in danger?! At the thought of this, Elizabeth took a sigh. But, he assaulted her, should she take him? Content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. If she did not take him, would he die? Elizabeth tangled for a while and decided to help him. From her small medicine cab, she took out cotton swabs, oil, gauze, disinfectant alcohol, surgical sutures, surgical needles and scissors. Elizabeth then went to wash her hands with hand sanitizer and then applied alcohol to them. After all the disinfection preparations werepleted, she began to sew up the man''s wounds. She had to stop the bleeding first. Luckily the cut in his abdomen was not deep enough to pierce his internal organs. The man seemed to sleep soundly. When she sewed his wounds, he was silent. After the wound had been stitched up, she gave him an astringent and an anti-inmmatory. While Elizabeth was dressing his wound, her forehead was covered with sweat. She only hoped that when he awoke, there would be no sequ. After all, in the past, she had only stitched up animals that had had c-sections. Elizabeth knew this because her grandmother was a barefoot doctor in the vige. She not only treated people and delivered babies, but also animals. She was raised by her grandmother since childhood and became her assistant. Therefore, she was familiar with how to deal with some trauma. Before high school, Elizabeth grew up in the countryside and was taken back to the town by her parents after her grandmother died. Elizabeth dealt with the wound on the man''s abdomen carefully, and then took the gauze to gently bandage him. He must have lost so much blood that he fainted. If he stayed in aa for too long, she would send him to the hospital. Just as she cut the gauze from his wound, he opened his eyes slowly. Thank God, the guy finally woke up! Just as Elizabeth was breathing a sigh of relief, it happened that the light from the phone, which had been put aside, pierced his ck eyes. The cold in his eyes made her shudder. He sat up suddenly, mped Elizabeth¡¯s delicate and thin neck tightly, and said in cold and alert voice, ¡°Huh, do you want to kill me?" Suddenly, scissors slipped from Elizabeth¡¯s hand, and her body was stiff. The sweat from her forehead dripped on the man''s wrists and she held her breath. Elizabeth was afraid that the man failed to control his strength and pinched her neck to break! ¡°You¡­ No, you are hurt! I''m trying to save you!" Elizabeth frowned and gripped his cold wrist tightly with both hands. She did not expect that he was so strong after all the blood he had shed! As he adjusted to the dim light, he began to look at the girl who had put him on his guard with his cold eyes. He couldn''t see the girl clearly. But remembering the lingering kiss with her and his physical reaction to her, he slowly let go of her. "Give me the phone!" said the man coldly. This man changed his face fast! Elizabeth picked up the phone from the bed and handed it to him. After snatching the phone from her hand, the man quickly dialed a number, pressed the phone to his ear and said, "Karl, it''s me!" "What''s your room number?" The man said with cold tone and looked at Elizabeth. Elizabeth answered, ¡°1808!" The man then told Karl her room number. He said few words before he hung up the phone, and then threw the phone back to her. Elizabeth caught the phone and left the room after making sure he would not hurt her. She went to the kitchen, took a bowl of soup from the refrigerator, and heated it on the gas stove. Then she poured the soup into the bowl, took a spoon into the bowl, picked it up and returned to the room. A faint smell of meat came from the kitchen, the man sitting on the bed could not help but swallow saliva. Elizabeth handed the bowl to the man, ¡°Drink it, it can enrich your blood." The man took the bowl and drank a mouthful of it without using the spoon. He was hungry. As he had expected, the soup and the meat in it were delicious. This woman was a good cook! "What soup is this?" The man asked coldly as he ate freely. Elizabeth replied lightly, ¡°Pig liver soup with red jujube and mer, which was for nourishing blood. It is suitable for you." Pig liver! The man''s face changed a little and he asked stiffly, "Is this something you did especially for me?" Chapter 3 Not the Same Kind of People Chapter 3 Not the Same Kind of People ¡°No! I overcooked it for dinner and left it at the bottom. Don''t worry, the soup is clean and I haven''t touched it!¡± Elizabeth murmured. She had just left her period, and the reason she cooked this dinner was to replenish her own blood. She did not expect that a man would have it! Elizabeth took out a mat and spread it on the ground beside the bed. Then she said lightly, ¡°You were injured, sleep on the bed!¡± ¡°Hum! What do you want from me?¡± After he finished the soup, the man put down the bowl and asked coldly. He knew all kinds of women, who were pure, sweet, sexy, mature, whatever. But often they approached him because of his background and wanted to get something out of him. Therefore, although he knew many women, he did not touch any of them. He knew how to keep him clean. But tonight, he did not know why he had failed to control himself and had an impulse towards this woman. Hearing this man speaking to her with cold tone, Elizabeth squinted her eyes and said angrily, ¡°Sir, is there a problem with your brain since you lost too much blood? You climbed to my room, kissed me and fainted on my bed. If it were not you injured, I will not let you stay and take care of you. You are injured badly and were hunted. I will be thankful if you don¡¯t bring trouble to me.¡± She was always kind and would take care of any dog or cat that got hurt. The man was stunned. He had lived for twenty-four years, and it was the first time he had heard such words from a woman. Elizabeth did not look at the man any more. She put away the phone and lied down on the mat. She did not care if he slept or not, she was tired and wanted to have a sleep. Besides, the wound in the man''s abdomen had just been sewn on, so he should not have the intention to hurt her. Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org. ¡°That was your first kiss?¡± asked the man. Elizabeth soon fell asleep, but answered sleepily, ¡°Hmm...¡± Yeah! It was her first kiss... She wanted to leave it to his boyfriend Conor Wood, but was taken away by this man. Elizabeth felt asleep with regret. The man smiled and appreciated the woman with her straightforward personality. He said, ¡°Coincidentally, that was also my first kiss.¡± But she did not hear him, for she was already asleep. He admired her cooking. He did not like to eat pig liver, but he had had the Pig liver soup with red jujube and mer¡±! ¡°You saved me, I took away your first kiss and touched you, how about I marry you?¡± The man asked. But he could only hear Elizabeth¡¯s breath of sleeping. The man smiled after he realized that she had fallen asleep. She didn''t seem to take him seriously! He had had a deja vu for this woman from the moment he kissed her. It was subtle, but it felt like it was meant to be. Elizabeth woke up in the early morning in the second day. There was still no electricity at home. After waking up, Elizabeth found herself lying on the bed, rather than the mat beside the bed. The thoughts in her mind came to a halt. She sat up suddenly, remembering things happenedst night. There was a mat on the floor beside the bed, an empty bowl on the bedside table, and no one else in the room. Was she sleepwalkingst night? Just when Elizabeth thought she experienced a nightmarest night, she inadvertently looked down and found the bloodstained marks in her nightgown. She was shocked. Last night was not a dream! The man... Elizabeth got down from the bed quickly, opened the door and looked around. At the same time, she breathed a sigh of relief, considering that the man had been picked up by hispanionst night. But it was good! Now she was just an ordinary junior college student, studying in the freshman year. In this big city, Elizabeth had to earn money to support herself and pay for her boyfriend¡¯s tuition for graduate school. The life of Elizabeth was stressed already, so she was not affordable to take care of one more person. Andst night, it was like a dream. Although she lost the first kiss, she saved a person''s life for doing something good for her grandmother. Elizabeth relieved with a smile, and left the things happened behind. She took off her blood-stained nightgown and went into the bathroom, intending to take a bath. The electricity was off all night and she smelled of sweat. Standing in front of the bath mirror, Elizabeth was startled by a jade pendant hanging around her neck. On the jade pendant was a word ¡°Marsh¡± winding by a dragon. Did the man leave it to herst night? But why did he leave a jade pendant for her? This jade pendant looked precious! She did not know about that man and he was hunted. So his identity must not be simple! Was it someone from the underworld? Or in politics? Or...Anyway, no matter what the man''s status was, she didn''t want to get involved in his troubles! Elizabeth made up her mind, took off the jade pendant from her neck and threw it in the washstand. ¡°A new day is a new beginning. Elizabeth, go fight!¡± After taking a bath and changing clothes, Elizabeth stood in front of the fitting mirror to cheer herself up. When she was ready to go out, the door of the other room opened. Snow Sue, a friend who shared a t with her, walked out from her bedroom disheveled and slippered, yawning. Elizabeth greeted her with a smile, ¡°Good morning, Snow!¡± ¡°Good morning, Elizabeth, why do you go to work so early?¡± Snow stretchedzily, looking at Elizabeth with her sleepy eyes. Snow was from the same city of Elizabeth. They were university ssmates and roommates. She was Elizabeth¡¯s bestie. And now they were hired by same decorationpany as interns, so they became colleagues. But the personalities of them werepletely different. Snow waszy but worshiped money. She changed boyfriends faster than changing clothes. And she especially liked the rich handsome men. Chapter 4 Be A Rich Lady Chapter 4 Be A Rich Lady While Elizabeth was diligent and indifferent to fame and fortune. Elizabeth had a boyfriend, who was her high school ssmate. They had a rtionship since they graduated from high school. The two were admitted to different universities due to differences in scores. Fortunately they were in the same city and could get together every weekend. Elizabeth studied in junior college, so she had more spare time than Conor who studied in undergraduate university, so, Elizabeth was in work-study program since she was a freshman to shoulder the cost of living of herself and Conor. Conor said that because of his excellent performance in school, the head teacher applied to the school for him to take the postgraduate entrance exam in advance. Elizabeth asked for leave from the school to work. In addition to her own living expenses, she gave all the rest money to Conor. Elizabeth and Conor had been in a rtionship for almost year, which was tonic love. In the past one year, they only held hands and hugged. Although Snow did not know much about Conor, she did not think they were good to be together. Conor and Elizabeth were from vige. A man needed his girlfriend to pay for his tuition would not have a prosperous future. Now there was a pile of client lists waiting for Elizabeth to do. Elizabeth smiled bitterly, ¡°I had a client''s design drawing needs to be ready today, so I have to catch up with time!¡± ¡°Watch your way and be safe! Oh, I ran out of my cleanser. Can I borrow yours?¡± Snow asked. Snow picked up a cup and walked to the water dispenser. If she was diligent like Elizabeth, she would be ¡°tired to death¡±! In fact, to a certain extent, Snow despised a girl from the countryside, like Elizabeth. Although they had the same hometown, Snow lived in the town with her parents. She grew up in the town, while Elizabeth was rustic, with no family background. Regardless of dress, or behavior, as well as the scope of social circles, Snow was like a city girl. Although Elizabeth was pretty, she paid no attention to dress and live a regr life. And she wanted to earn more money by working hard. She wished! Although Snow was Elizabeth¡¯s bestie, she did not understand Elizabeth and did not want to understand her. She did not feel she was in the same world with Elizabeth. Content is property ? N?velDrama.Org. She would marry a rich man in the future. So, she wore heavy makeup, dressed herself up, and made eyes at rich men. While Elizabeth was in. She only knew hard work every day and did not dress herself up, so no rich man would pay attention to her! Only Conor with the same family background would notice her. Elizabeth did not know about Snow¡¯s mind, but she knew herself well. She was down to earth and did things that she should do. Gold would always shine! Snow did not ask whether there was anything unusual happened at homest night, so she must have a sound sleep. It was good that Snow did not know what had happened in her roomst night, so as not to get into any unnecessary trouble. Elizabeth smiled with relief and pulled open the door after putting on her shoes. ¡°You can get it by yourself on the washstand in my bathroom. I am leaving!¡± ¡°Well, bye!¡± Snow waved to Elizabeth. After drinking water, she put down the cup and then entered Elizabeth¡¯s room. She went straight into the bathroom. When she took cleanser from the washstand, she noticed something green. Snow fixed her eyes on it and found it was a jade pendant. She picked it up out of curiosity. The Jade pendant was crystal clear with green lines in it. It was absolutely true! ¡°When did Elizabeth get such a valuable treasure?¡± Snow soliloquized in surprise. Her family was selling high imitation goods, so she had a certain degree of identification for jade jewelry. She must ask Elizabeth how she got it when she arrived in thepany. Then Snow could not help but put the jade pendant on her neck, stood in front of the bathroom mirror and appreciated it. Just then, the doorbell rang. Snow walked out of Elizabeth¡¯s room to open the door. She said, ¡°Elizabeth must have forgotten her key to the office.¡± Snow opened the door and saw two men dressed in ck suit and tie were looking at her seriously. ¡°Who are you looking for?¡± Snow smiled and became alert, blinking her eyes. A man looked up and down on Snow. When he see the ancestral jade pendant of Marsh Family on her neck, he quickly bowed his head and said respectful, ¡°Mistress, nice to meet you!¡± ¡°Mistress?!¡± Snow startled, looking at the man in puzzle, ¡°What Mistress?¡± The man exined with a smile, ¡°You are wearing the ancestral jade pendant Young Master left to you!¡± Ancestral jade pendant! Snow looked down at the jade pendant subconsciously, feeling surprised, but she realized a serious thing. The other side seemed to have a strong background, but this jade pendant was Elizabeth¡¯s... What should she do? Should she tell them the jade pendant was not hers? After thinking for a while, Snow decided to explore the other side, ¡°I don''t understand what you are saying.¡± ¡°Mistress, we are from Lengs Group, and I am the butler of Young Master from Marsh Family. You can call me Lau. Young Master sent me here.¡± The man exined to Snow patiently. Young Master asked him to pick up the woman who had save Young Master. ¡°Lengs Group?!¡± Snow was shocked but pleased, ¡°Is that Lengs Group had business in amusement, business and politics, with profit running the first in sessive ten years of the country?!¡± Chapter 5 Unfriended Chapter 5 Unfriended ¡°Yes, Mistress.¡± Butler Lau nodded with a smile. Lengs Group was well-known both at home and abroad, and almost everyone knew it. Exclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org. Snow asked in please and surprise, ¡°And Young Master is?¡± ¡°Young Master is the heir of Lengs Group! Because his identity was special, I cannot tell you his name for the time being. After you two get married, Young Master will tell you everything about him, and you will have unlimited wealth and honor in the future.¡± Butler Lau replied with a smile. Snow was excited to hear that she would have unlimited wealth and honor. What an enticing offer! She had a dreamst night that she married a rich man. And in the next day, her dream came true! ¡°Will I never have to share a house like this? And I don''t have to take metros? And I don¡¯t have to listen to the boss?¡± Snow asked several questions excitedly. Snow was greedy andpletely forgot the owner of this jade pendant was Elizabeth. Snow even thought that this jade pendant was hers! Looking at Snow¡¯s excited expression, Butler Lau nodded with a smile. ¡°Good! Take me away at once! I want to be a rich Lady!¡± Snow did not expect her happiness would When Snow immersed in joy, Elizabeth was working seriously sitting in front of theputer. For Elizabeth, turning from internship into a full-time job was to have a stable job after she formally graduated, so as not to lose her job as soon as she graduated. Two women''s fate roulettes were into different tracks from now on. Snow got on the luxury cars worth millions for the first time excitedly, with infinite expectations. What kind of man would Young Master be? Snow was nervous and excited, feeling helpless sitting behind the driver''s seat. ¡°Mistress, please fill out this form.¡± Butler Lau took out pen and paper from his briefcase and handed them to Snow. Snow took the pen and paper, smiling shyly, ¡°Why should I fill this?¡± What was to be filled in on the form seemed simple, but it looked like a census. Name, date of birth, upation, home address, family members and their background should all be filled in in great detail. ¡°To give gift to your parents.¡± Butler Lau said with a smile. Hearing that, Snow could not help but feel flustered. She asked tentatively, ¡°Well... does Young Master know my name? And why does he want to marry me suddenly?¡± ¡°Well...¡± Butler Lau did not know how to answer. Early in the morning, suddenly gave him a call and asked him to pick up a woman with the ancestral jade pendant of the Marsh Family in the apartment no. 1808, and said this woman would be his wife. As for the rest, Young Master said nothing. In fact, Butler Lau knew what to do even if Young Master did not exin. Since she was to be Young Master¡¯s wife, he would do based on marriage process. Or why should Young Master needed a butler? Butler Lau could only think of this. ¡°How did you know Young Master?¡± after a pause, Butler Lau asked curiously. Young Master had never been in love and had never touched a woman, but now he suddenly said that he was going to get married. Could he, as a butler, not be curious? Snow was at a loss after hearing that question, but soon she had a brainwave and said perfunctorily, ¡°It is¡­ a secret!¡± After that, Snow was thinking what was going on between Elizabeth and Young Master? If Young Master knew Elizabeth, why did the butler pick up the wrong person? Perhaps, the key was this jade pendant! Snow raised his hands, held up the jade pendant and took a look at it. From its exquisite workmanship, she knew that this jade pendant was an antique! Butler Lau saw Snow looking at the jade pendant, he said, ¡°This jade pendant is a hundred years heirloom in Marsh Family, please keep it well! When you and Young Master have a son and he bes an adult, you can give the jade pendant to him!¡± ¡°What if I don''t have a son?¡± Snow frowned in displeasure. By listening to Butler Lau''s words, she knew it was not a good family. Butler Lau smiled, ¡°If Young Master loves you enough, even if it is a daughter, she can this jade pendant!¡± In other words, the owner of the pendant was the future heir of the Lengs Group. Butler Lau did not tell Snow about it, but he knew the wealth would make her satisfied. ¡°Mistress, fill out the form first, so I can arrange the wedding!'''' continued Butler Lau. Snow came to her senses and smiled awkwardly, but she was excited, so she picked up a pen to fill in the form. From now on, it was time to turn over the book of her life! She wrote down her name - Snow Sue. When she was born, it was snowing, so she got the name In an SUV disguised as broken car in an abandoned unfinished building, the man with painted face received a message from Butler Lau could not help but raise his mouth slightly looking at his mobile phone. ¡°Jasper,ter we are going to fight with ¡®Eagle¡¯, why are you smiling looking at the mobile phone?¡± Paul Han whose face was painted with ck charcoal sitting beside him looked at Jasper Marsh with a rare smile and could not help asking jokingly. Jasper always had a cold face, now he was smiling?! Paul was like encountering a rare thing. Jasper instantly stopped smiling and kept silent. He quicklypiled a short message, but Paul did not know who he sent to. ¡°Jasper, you were uncovered and hunted by ¡®Eagle¡¯. And you unexpectedly escaped from death after jumping from a high building. Did a beauty save you?¡± Paul felt the gun in his hand and said with a smile. Chapter 6 The Indifferent Home Chapter 6 The Indifferent Home This matter was about whether they could be alive, but Paul still had the mood to tease him. Jasper finished sending the text message, turned off his phone and put it away. His stern ck eyes nced at Paul, and asked, "I was rescued by my wife. Do you have an opinion?" "You have a wife? When? What happened? Why didn''t I know?" Paul looked at Jasper in disbelief. Jasper smiled faintly, "Last night..." A kiss! He met a woman who knew how to cook and knew medical skills. She saved his life without asking for anything in return. She was so pure and so kind! In the decorationpany, Elizabeth Lawrence worked in the office. Suddenly, she sneezed inexplicably. At this time, their team leader, Ray Butler, suddenly ran over and leaned on the ss of Elizabeth''s office and asked, "Elizabeth, why didn''t Snowe to work today?" "Did Snow note to work?" Elizabeth looked up from behind theputer in astonishment. She had been busy with the work she had at hand, so she hadn''t noticed that Snow didn¡¯te to work today. "Yeah! She hasn''te yet! You two live together, don¡¯t you? Didn''t youe to work together?" Ray asked again. Elizabeth subconsciously looked at Snow''s desk in front. She really didn''t see Snow. Ray pointed to the clock on the wall andined dissatisfiedly, "She is your roommate and your best friend, please call her! There is a lot of work for her. That''s it!" "Okay! I''ll call her!" Elizabeth smiled helplessly, and then took out her mobile phone to call Snow. She made several calls in a row, but Snow didn''t answer it. At this moment, she realized that she had an unread text message from an unfamiliar number. ¡°Snow, wait for me at home.¡± --158xxxxxxx1. After reading this short message, Elizabeth replied in shock. ¡°Who are you?¡± --139xxxxxxx9. After a long time, there was no reply from the other party. Elizabeth couldn''t help but wonder who sent her this text message and why called her "Snow". Could it be that the other party sent wrong message? In Elizabeth''s view, these questions weren¡¯t important than her work. Soon she didn¡¯t pay attention to it. The most important thing for her right now was to finish the design drawings. When it was about to get off work in the afternoon, Elizabeth received a reply from the stranger. Jasper also turned on his mobile phone after finishing the work, only then did he see the message from "Snow". Originally, his tense mood because of dealing with the gangster suddenly became particrly good with the arrival of this text message. Jasper replied without thinking. ¡°Your fianc¨¦.¡± --158xxxxxxx1. Fianc¨¦? Seeing the text message from the other party, Elizabeth was dumbfounded. Snow had a fianc¨¦! Why didn''t she know? Could it be that Snow¡¯s fianc¨¦ was from Snow''s hometown? So Elizabeth kindly replied. ¡°Hello, you sent the wrong text message. I am not Snow. I am Snow''s best friend. Snow''s mobile phone number is 139xxxxxxxx8, which is different from thest digit of my mobile phone number.¡± - -139xxxxxxx9. Because she and Snow applied for the phone campus cards together at the school, so their mobile phone numbers were consecutive numbers, only thest digit was different. Snow''s mobile phone number ended in "8". Her mobile phone number ended in "9". After receiving the text message from Elizabeth, Jasper was startled, and then subconsciously went to check the content of the text message sent to him by his assistant, Karl, this morning. It was "139xxxxxxx9". Last night, he used the girl''s cell phone to call Karl. Karl''s phone had the caller ID. Could it be that Karl had entered the wrong phone number? At this time, "139xxxxxxx9" sent another message. ¡°If you can contact Snow. Please bring me a message to Snow and ask her to call me back. I am worried about her. She doesn¡¯t answer my phone for no reason and doesn¡¯t note to work.¡± - -139xxxxxxx9. ¡°She was picked up by someone I sent.¡± --158xxxxxxx1. After Jasper read the text message sent by Elizabeth, he immediately replied. Butler Lau said that he had picked up Snow and ced her in YISAN Vi in the eastern outskirts of LH City. Snow¡¯s friend was worry about her. Did it indirectly prove that Snow''s interpersonal rtionship was good? Jasper held the phone and smiled. Before Elizabeth read the message, Snow finally called her back. "Snow, why didn''t youe to work today? Are you ufortable?" Elizabeth pressed the answer button and asked worriedly. Snow faintly replied, "I''m fine. Just help me resign! I don''t want to work there anymore!" "Snow, has something happened?" Elizabeth couldn''t help but to be worried after she heard Snow''s cold tone. Snow still replied coldly, "I''m fine! I''ve gone home! By the way, don¡¯t contact me anymore! Don''t mention me to others, let alone saying you know me! In short, Elizabeth, I¡¯ll break up with you.¡± "Break up? Wait, Snow, what''s the matter with you?" Elizabeth was shocked. She didn''t know what N?velDrama.Org (C) content. happened between her and Snow that could make Snow want to break up with her. "Beep¡­" Snow didn''t answer Elizabeth''s questions anymore, but hung up the phone directly. Holding the phone, Elizabeth looked at the "call is over" on the screen, feeling confused. What was wrong with Snow? At this time, the team leader, Ray, ran over again and asked, "Elizabeth, will Snowe to work tomorrow?" "I think she probably won''te to work anymore." Elizabeth shrugged slightly. Then Ray turned angrily and left. Elizabeth clicked on the text message and read it. ¡°She was picked up by someone I sent.¡± --158xxxxxxx1. It seemed that Snow had really gone home! Did she go to get married secretly? She even had a fianc¨¦! Elizabeth thought it was ridiculous. Did her best friend break up with her for "marriage"? She always felt weird! After a busy day, Elizabeth returned to her rental house from getting off work. The door of Snow''s room was open and everything in it was still there, but Elizabeth didn¡¯t see Snow. "Snow? Snow?" Elizabeth yelled a few times. Seeing no one responded, she took out her cell phone to call Snow again. The phone rang for a long time before Snow answered it. "Snow, where have you been all day?" Elizabeth still asked very worriedly. After a busy day of work, she forgot about the breakup things this morning. Snow replied impatiently, "Didn''t I make it clear to you this morning? What are you still calling me?" Chapter 7 Sudden Kiss Chapter 7 Sudden Kiss "Snow, what''s the matter with you?" Elizabeth was suddenly confused. Snow suddenly coldly snorted, "I¡¯m fine. In short, don''t call me again. Don''t even mention that you know me!" "Did something happen to you? Tell me, I''ll try to help you!" Elizabeth asked worriedly. Snow suddenly became impatient, "I''m fine! Besides, I won''t go back to the rental house anymore. I won''t go to work at that shitpany. That¡¯s it. Don''t call me again. You¡¯re annoying!" "Beep¡­" After being inexplicably yelled by Snow, Elizabeth suddenly remembered the content of the text messages. Elizabeth patted her forehead impatiently. She was really too busy with her work. So she didn''t remember what happened this morning. She actually called Snow again and got a cold shoulder from Snow. But listening to Snow''s arrogant tone, it seemed that she really broke up with her. Elizabeth smiled bitterly. Even if they were good friends, sooner orter they would go away for various reasons. Therefore, Elizabeth didn''t care about these things anymore. It seemed that Snow would note back, so she had to find a roommate to share the room with herself. Elizabeth stretched, and then went back to her bedroom to take the clothes. She was about to take a shower in the bathroom. She picked up the washbasin. identally, she saw the blood-stained nightdress that she took off in the morning in the bucket, which could not be cleaned in time. Suddenly she remembered the man fromst night. She didn''t know if the injury on his abdomen was better now, wishing that his wound not be inmed! Thinking of this, Elizabeth shook her head. Why did she think of that man for no reason? She picked up the washing powder and poured it into the bucket. But she didn¡¯t pay attention the jade pendant that the man left for herst night but she threw on the wash table this morning had disappeared. Snow arrived at the YISAN Vi of Marsh Family. Seeing the golden medals for merits hanging on the walls of the YISAN Vi hall, she could immediately guess what the other hidden identity of Young Master was. "Young Master is a soldier?" Snow couldn''t help but looked at the Butler Lau worriedly. Butler Lau smiled. He nodded but then shook his head. Young Master was not only a major general of special forces but also an anti-narcotics policeman. He felt that it was an honor to be a butler for Young Master. Looking at Butler Lau, Snow frowned. If the man she was going to marry was a soldier, would it mean that she couldn¡¯t see him most of the time? Soldiers were either in the army or fighting with the ouws all year round. They were in danger. No matter how rich he was, Snow felt not happy. If she had known this, she would not pretend to be Elizabeth! Snow regretted a bit. Her eyes turned into dim. Butler Lau could see through Snow''s thoughts at a nce, so he added, "Don''t worry. Young Master will retire this year, enter the business world, and take over Lengs Group!" "Really?" Snow''s eyes suddenly lit up. Butler Lau smiled and nodded slightly, but he wondered why did Young Master fall in love with such a "realistic" woman. "Mistress, do you really want to marry Young Master? If you regret now, you still have time." Butler Lau reminded with a smile. Snow replied firmly, "He¡¯s the only one I want to marry in my life!" "Okay! Since Mistress has made up your mind to marry Young Master, Young Master also said if you have any requirements, just tell me. I will try my best to do it for you." Butler Lau then said respectfully. His words made Snow happy. "Really? He can give me what I want?" Snow blinked her eyes and asked eagerly. N?velDrama.Org (C) content. Butler Lau replied very seriously, "Yes!" "Then... If I want the stars in the sky? Can he pick one off for me?" Snow asked jokingly. Butler Liu replied firmly, "Of course!" "I''m kidding!" Snowughed happily. After a pause, Snow raised her eyebrows and said to Butler Lau seriously, "Actually, I want to buy a decorationpany. Can you do it for me?" Butler Lau nodded, "Yes, Mistress!" After receiving a positive answer from Butler Lau, Snow raised her eyebrows slightly. A smug smirk was on her face. "Mistress, you can ask me to buy anything you like!" Butler Lau continued. Young Master had already given orders to him that he must let the future Mistress live well at home. "Hahaha¡­ Hahaha¡­" Snow was overjoyed after listening to Butler Lau''s words. This was exactly the luxurious life she wanted! But all this should belong to Elizabeth. This will always be a thorn in Snow''s heart. At dinner, in YISAN Vi, Snow was sitting at the exquisite long table and holding silver chopsticks in her hand. Her eyes were particrly bright. Seeing the delicious food on the table in front of her, she swallowed. She didn''t know which dish to start with. In the rental house, Elizabeth only made one simple dish. Sitting at the table in the kitchen, she was holding a bowl of rice and eating slowly. When renting with Snow before, Snow never ate at home. Because Snow nevercked men to invite her to meals. Elizabeth never asked Snow about her private life. Snow also respected her and wouldn¡¯t take the man back to this rental house for the night. However, in life, it was Elizabeth who took care of Snow more. Whenever Snow got sick and had a fever, or had menstrual cramps during her period, even in the middle of the night, Elizabeth went to the drugstore to buy medicine for her and took good care of her. Snow never felt grateful for Elizabeth¡¯s goodness. She thought that Elizabeth came from the remote rural areas. In the first-tier of cities, Elizabeth could be apanied by her, Snow. That was Elizabeth¡¯s blessing. Therefore, Elizabeth should take care of her. The most terrifying thing about people was that they didn¡¯t know appreciate those who were kind to them. Elizabeth had never seen clearly what kind of person the best friend who apanied her every day was. She thought that Snow smiled at her every day, which represented that their friendship was good. But she didn¡¯t know behind Snow¡¯s smile, it was vicious. Snow hid her vicious nature in the deepest of her heart. After dinner, Elizabeth cleaned up the kitchen, and then went out with her handbag. Chapter 8 Becoming Her Path Chapter 8 Bing Her Path There was no time to go to the supermarket during the day. The refrigerator at home was empty. Elizabeth nned to buy some fresh fruits from the nearby fruit supermarket to fill the refrigerator. Now, Snow, her best friend, was not by her side. She would go in and out of this rental house by herself every day in the future. Although Elizabeth felt a little lonely, she could still make her life morefortable. In the fruit supermarket, Elizabeth picked up some dragon fruits, bananas and apples, and then took them to the front desk to weigh and pay. Just when she took out her purse and was about to make payment, a big slender hand already held a hundred-dor bill and handed it to the cashier. "Here¡¯s your change. Fifty yuan. Thanks foring." The female cashier said with a smile, and handed the remaining money to the person who paid the bill. Elizabeth looked up at the owner of the hand. "Lady, your boyfriend is so great!" The female cashier looked at Elizabeth with a smile, and then looked at the man next to Elizabeth. She praised the man in surprise. This man was really handsome! He had a handsome face which was like a superstar. His face was impable. The man wore military uniforms and military boots, with wide shoulders, narrow waist and slender legs. His height was much higher than Elizabeth. "You..." "Come with me!" Before Elizabeth finished speaking, the man stretched out his hand. His big hand grabbed Elizabeth''s small hand and took her out of the fruit supermarket. "Who are you? Let go of me!" Elizabeth held a bag of fruit in one hand, and tried to get rid of the man''s hand with the other hand. But being dragged forward by the man, she was unable to stop. He just didn¡¯t see her one day, but he missed her very much. Elizabeth couldn''t understand the man''s feelings. She even had someints. Was this man crazy? She didn''t even know him! The man stopped and turned around. Elizabeth bumped into his arms. As soon as she looked up, he lowered his head and kissed her. The man opened her teeth aggressively and kissed her forcefully. His heart was beating fiercely and his breathing was rapid. But Elizabeth''s mind was nk. This taste was familiar... N?velDrama.Org (C) content. It was like the man fromst night... The man hugged her tightly. He exhausted his own temperature, breath, and passion to kiss her. Elizabeth tried her best to punch the man with her hands, trying to push away the rude man in front of her. "Ouch¡­" The man suddenly let go of her, and covered his abdomen in pain. Elizabeth was taken aback. Suddenly, she realized that he was the man who got injured and crawled into her housest night! "You..." Elizabeth was at a loss. She wanted to scold the man''s rude behaviors, but seeing that his face was pale in pain, she felt a little guilty. So she had to say, "Hey, forget it! Sorry! I didn¡¯t mean it! Let me check the wound on your abdomen..." Why did he kiss her suddenly? Elizabeth was very annoyed at first, but she thought that she identally hurt the wound on his abdomen. She wanted to get angry but finally she endured it. Forget it! "I''m fine, but I don''t have much time to stay. I originally nned to go back to YISAN Vi to see you, but the butler said that you are not at home. I went to the hospital to change my medicine just now but I didn''t expect to meet you here. So there must be a destined fate between us. Baby, you have to wait for me. After I finish the task, I can be with you every day." Jasper raised his hand to rub Elizabeth''s head and said affectionately. What should he do? He seemed to have really fallen in love with the woman who saved him. Love at first sight. Jasper never thought that he would fall into the trap of this love and be unable to extricate himself. Obviously, he and she had only known each other for only twenty-four hours, but it seemed as if they had known each other for a long time. Perhaps, deep in his heart, he had a familiar feeling for her. Because of such a feeling, he had been waiting for her to appear. Elizabeth only stared at Jasper in amazement. She waspletely unable to understand what the man was talking about. "Baby, I have to go. Good night, ask the driver to take you home early. Don''t worry me." Jasper leaned over and gently kissed Elizabeth''s eyebrows. Elizabeth looked nk. Just when she wanted to ask the man what he meant, the man turned around agilely, jumped over the flowerbed on the roadside, and then jumped into a car which just stopped by the roadside. Someone inside opened the door of the back seat of the military green off-road vehicle. With a sound of "Bang", the military green off-road vehicle drove away as soon as the door was closed. He was in a hurry. He didn¡¯t give her any time to question him at all. Elizabeth raised her hand to pat her forehead. It hurt. So what happened just now was not a dream. But what was going on with this man? He kissed her forcibly, and said some inexplicable things to her. Since he was safe, don''te back to look for her again! She just looked at the military green off-road vehicle. It had a white license te, which meant it was a military vehicle. Was he a soldier? Elizabeth only guessed wildly, but did not take the man''s affairs seriously. Perhaps, he was just grateful to her for saving him, and had no vicious towards her. After Jasper returned to the car, he rubbed his lips with his fingers, as if he was thinking about something endlessly. Hisrade-in-arms, Paul, patted his shoulder, pursed his lips, and asked jokingly, "Jasper, I saw everything in the car just now! How about that girl¡¯s lips? Isn''t it sweet?" Suddenly, Jasper''s face was tense. His sharp ck eyes red at Paul. Paul couldn''t help butughing. He raised his hand to make ¡°zip it¡± gesture on his mouth, indicating that he would shut up. Before long, Jasper sent a message to Butler Lau in YISAN Vi, asking if Snow had gone home. Butler Lau quickly replied a text message to tell him that Snow had arrived home safely and bought a lot of expensive limited-edition clothes. ¡°Well. As long as she liked it.¡± After Jasper finished typing this sentence and sent it to Butler Lau, he turned off the phone. Since Elizabeth worked, she thought it was already a sad thing that her best friend broke up with her. Unexpectedly, the second thing that saddened her woulde one week after Snow left. Elizabeth originally thought she could spend the internship period arranged by thepany safely. Chapter 9 She Already Has a Boyfriend Chapter 9 She Already Has a Boyfriend She thought she could be a full-time employee of thepany after she graduated from college. But she did not expect that she would be fired by thepany''s new female boss. Moreover, she was "fired" inexplicably! As the saying goes, ¡°New brooms sweep cleaner.¡± The new female boss who had never showed up seen issued a notice, "Fire all interns in thepany!" Elizabeth felt that she was really wronged! She packed her things. When she left thepany, the team leader, Ray, kindly came over tofort her. "Elizabeth, I heard that the name of the new female boss of ourpany is Snow! Do you think our female boss is your best friend?" Before leaving, Ray whispered to her. Elizabeth was startled and then she smiled indifferently, "It has nothing to do with me." "Take care of yourself! Don''t be discouraged!" Ray grinned, holding his fist and making a gesture ¡°cheer up¡± for Elizabeth. Elizabeth nodded and smiled slightly. This moment was the most embarrassed time for her. She finally found a paid internship job, but she didn''t expect it to end so soon. Elizabeth looked back at the decorationpany. Suddenly, she felt a bit sad. This was where she officially entered the society and struggled for the first time in her life. Regardless of his injuries, Jasper who camped in the deep forest was still dealing with the enemy. ¡°Mistress only likes all high-end things, such as high-end cosmetics, jewelry, designer clothes, designer sachets, designer high heels!¡± --Butler Lau. After Jasper read the message sent by Butler Lau, he couldn''t help but sneered. After through that night, Jasper thought that Snow would be different from those material girls. But she was nothing different from those girls! Hey, forget it! After all, this was the woman he picked himself. He was willing to fall in love with her. Who could he me? After he retired, he would be responsible for making money to support the family, and Snow would be responsible for being beautiful. "Jasper, what method will Eagle choose to smuggle next?" The question of Paul made Jaspere to his senses. Jasper put his phone away. He pointed a river on the map, and decisively said, "Eagle will definitely choose this river for water transportation! However, he will also choose this road as a cover." His judgment was never wrong. His only mistake was in the judgment for a woman! Jasper was thinking about after the end of this mission, he would go back to buy a special gift for Snow. So he asked Butler Lau about Snow''s preferences. Since Snow liked those luxury goods, Jasper felt that he could give Snow a credit card that couldn''t be spent up. The fact was indeed the case. When Butler Lau received Jasper''s instructions, he applied a credit card for Snow and handed it to Snow. When Snow took the credit card, she was overjoyed and screamed with excitement. Content ? N?velDrama.Org. She even hugged Butler Lau with great joy. She wasn¡¯t like an elegant youngdy at all. Butler Lau, who was embarrassed by Snow, couldn''t help but sneered. Somehow, he disgusted Snow. This kind of material girl didn''t deserve Young Master at all! Because of having the money, Snow quickly became popr in the celebrity circle of LH City. Besides, she also made some friends with wealthydies and aristocrats. With the huge connections, Snow spent money like water. Everything she wanted to do was very smooth. However, Snow tried every means to get rid of Elizabeth! Yeah! She couldn''t let Elizabeth stay in LH City! Because Elizabeth was her stumbling block. She had to crush this stumbling block and make it be a smooth path under her feet. Snow''s eyes showed fierce look. She showed a wicked smile. It was not very easy to live in LH City. Especially for a student like Elizabeth who only had a college diploma, finding a job was more difficult for her. There was only one thing Elizabeth couldn''t figure out. Why did the interviewers of thepanies she applied for recently turned her away after learning her name without even reading her resume? She felt as if she had been banned by someone. Elizabeth felt that she was a bit whimsical. She was not a big star, and she did not offend anyone, so how could she be banned? By the street shop window, Elizabeth looked at her shadow in the ss. Suddenly, she felt embarrassed. Like her, was there anyone in this world who wanted to wander out in a big city, but was tortured by the cruel reality? In the next few days, Elizabeth was refused everywhere. Not only could she not find a job, but when she returned to the rental house, even thendlord increased the rent. Since thest time she was fired from thepany, she had been looking for a job. Besides, there was not much money left in her bank card, so she had no extra money to pay the rent. In desperation, Elizabeth decided to stop renting the house. She decided to find a house near the university of his boyfriend, Conor Wood, and then continued to look for work. LH City had a city center as well as counties. Elizabeth¡¯s boyfriend¡¯s university was in the county. She took a bus from the city center to the county where her boyfriend lived. She had to transfer three times. It took two and a half hours to get there. When Elizabeth got off the bus with her suitcase and stood at the gate of LH University, it was already dark. The boys'' dormitory closed at ten o''clock. Elizabeth didn''t call Conor in advance, but directly got there. She knew where Conor''s dormitory was. In the past, every weekend, she woulde to help her boyfriend do theundry when she had time, so that the female supervisor of the dorm here knew her. Conor''s other three roommates also knew Elizabeth. They were very friendly to Elizabeth, treating her as a younger sister. When Elizabeth was standing at the door of Conor¡¯s room with dragging the suitcase, the three boys in the dormitory saw Elizabeth and immediately stopped ying games. They all came over to wee her. They helped her carry the suitcase, gave her a stool and poured water for her. In fact, every time she came, she not only helped Conor wash the clothes, but also washed the clothes of his three roommates at the request of Conor. She also cleaned up their room. At this moment, Stephen Baker, who had crew-cut hair and slightly dark skin, walked over to help Elizabeth lift the suitcase. Chapter 10 Promise Him Not to Cry Chapter 10 Promise Him Not to Cry Stephen greeted her very graciously, "Elizabeth, today is not the weekend! Why did youe here today? With such arge suitcase!" Bob Fong moved the stool and asked Elizabeth to sit down and rest. Wearing ck-rimmed sses, gentle Joseph Butler poured Elizabeth a ss of boiled water, "Elizabeth, drink some water." "Thank you!" Elizabeth took the water with a smile and sat down. She looked around, "Where is Conor?" When she mentioned Conor, the three exchanged their eyes. After a pause, Stephen grinned and said, "He has gone to study!" "Yes, yes!" Bob fumbled. Joseph frowned and said nothing. Elizabeth felt that the three of them seemed to be hiding something from her, so she took out her mobile phone from her handbag. Just when she was about to call Conor, Joseph suddenly came over and took her mobile phone away. "There is no need to make the phone call. I¡¯m going to take you to look for Conor directly!" Suddenly, Joseph said coldly. Stephen and Bob immediately winked at Joseph and signaled him not to do that. Joseph nced at Stephen and Bob, and then hepletely ignored their reminders. He returned the phone to Elizabeth, and said, "Elizabeth,e with me!" After he finished speaking, he walked out of the room door alone. Elizabeth quickly said goodbye to Stephen and Bob, letting them take care of her suitcase. After she picked up her handbag, she immediately followed Joseph. Stephen and Bob were left looking at each other. Elizabeth followed Joseph''s pace. Seeing Joseph had something in his mind, she could not help pursing her lips, and asked concernedly, "Joseph, what''s the matter with you?" "After meeting Conor, promise me not to cry." Joseph said deeply as he was walking forward. In fact, this was the matter of Conor and Elizabeth. Why should he intervene? But... Joseph frowned when he thought of this. Elizabeth thought something bad happened to Conor. She asked anxiously with her hoarse voice, "Is there something wrong with Conor? Is he fine?" "He is fine. Besides, he is living well." Joseph answered coldly. On the way, no matter what Elizabeth asked, Joseph always used "After you arrive, you will know" to answer Elizabeth. Elizabeth had to shut up wittily. The two went to the back door of the school. Outside the back door was a spacious road. On the opposite side of the road were five or six-story residential buildings and a snack street. Joseph led Elizabeth into an alley, and then there was a stainless steel fence door less than ten meters away after they turned into a corner. Those who go in and out here were all paired young men and women. Elizabeth understood something vaguely, but still couldn''t believe the thought in her heart. Joseph opened the stainless steel fence door and walked in. Elizabeth lowered her head slightly, and then followed in silently. They went up to the third floor and stopped in front of a dark green security door. Joseph took out a key from his trouser pocket, opened the door, and walked in alone. After Elizabeth followed in, she realized that the house had four bedrooms with a living room, balcony, dining room and kitchen. It was three times the size of the small rental house she and Snow rented together. Joseph went straight to the door on the far left and knocked gently. Conor''s voice came from inside, "Who is it?" "It''s me!" Joseph answered. Conor asked again, "Didn''t you say to go back to the dormitory tonight? Why are you back again?" "Come out. I have something to tell you." Joseph continued. "Then wait a moment. I''lle out after I put on my clothes." Conor also responded. Immediately afterwards, a woman''s voice came from inside, "Joseph. Damn it. Why does hee back right now?" "Honey, don''t worry. After I ask him what the matter is, I¡¯lle back and continue with you.¡± Conor coaxed softly. The sounding from inside the room was not loud. Although it was not enough to hear what the persons inside was saying, it could tell besides Conor, there was a woman inside. Elizabeth just stood beside Joseph, so she heard clearly. Apart from Conor, there was a woman in the room. It was not time to go to bed now. Why did Conor have to get dressed before he coulde out? Elizabeth wanted to cry. Tears welled up into her eyes. When Conor opened the door and saw Elizabeth standing beside Joseph, he was shocked instantly. "Conor, what¡¯s wrong?" The woman''s voice sounded again. In the next second, the owner of the voice appeared in front of Elizabeth. The long hair draped over her shoulders. She had fair skin, red lips and white teeth. There was light makeup on her face. She wore Conor''s white shirt, showing two long and white legs. "Oh, Joseph. You nerd. You finally got a girlfriend!" After the woman looked at Elizabeth, she sneered slightly. Joseph squinted Rachel disapprovingly. When he was about to say something to Conor, Conor took a step ahead and interrupted what Joseph wanted to say. "She is my cousin! From the country!" Conor said with a smile. At this moment, Elizabeth''s heart was so painful that even tears could not flow out. Only her lips were trembling slightly. "Yes, your cousin came to look for you suddenly. So, I brought her here!" Joseph said coldly.Content ? N?velDrama.Org. Conor leaned slightly and said softly to his girlfriend, Rachel, next to him, "Rachel, I will take my cousin to have dinner first. After she settles down, I wille back to apany you. She came by the long- distance bus here. She must have not eaten dinner yet. " ¡°Well, alright, I don''t want to go out. I won''t apany your cousin!" Rachel said coquettishly. After a pause, she looked at Elizabeth and smiled slightly, "Little cousin, this is the first time we meet. Hello! I am your cousin''s girlfriend, Rachel." "You...how long have you been together...?" Elizabeth''s voice was choked. Rachel smiled shyly, and then intimately took Conor''s arms and replied, "It''s almost a year! Conor, right?" "Alright. I''ll take my cousin to have dinner." Conor quickly changed the topic. Rachel nodded slightly and let go of Conor''s hand. Conor came out of the room and closed the door. His face suddenly changed. He red at Joseph angrily. Elizabeth didn''t say anything anymore, but turned around to leave. She even ran away. Conor hurriedly chased after her. Chapter 11 If I Marry You Chapter 11 If I Marry You The two were quarreling in the corridor. Afraid of affecting his image, Conor held Elizabeth¡¯s hand and pulled her quickly downstairs to a street with few people. There was only onemp in the street. Under the dim light, pedestrians¡¯ face could not been seen clearly. Elizabeth shook off Conor''s hand and stood by the wall without saying a word. Conor put his hands in his trouser pockets, lowered his head, and sighed deeply, ¡°Actually...I''ve always thought of you as my sister.¡± ¡°You didn¡¯t say it before, and you now you said you take me as your sister?¡± Elizabeth asked hoarsely. Conor frowned and answered impatiently, ¡°Elizabeth, don''t speak so badly! We were high school ssmates and came from the countryside. However, I am an undergraduate with promising future, while you are just a junior college student, and you can only find a job with low ie in the future. You gave me money for the past one year, because you wanted to invest in me so that I can marry you and take you to live in this big city when I am sessful!¡± ¡°Is that the way you think of me?¡± Elizabeth looked at Conor in disbelief. Conor lift his eyes to look at Elizabeth and said, ¡°You are such a girl.¡± ¡°In that case, I want you to give me back all the money I have given you this year! Give it back to me with interest!¡± Elizabeth stretched out her hand and said angrily. Conor nced at Elizabeth, pressed his lips, and slightly turned sideways, ¡°See! I am right, you are that kind of girl! Forget it, you are a girl from the countryside! You have no ambition but only money. I cannot help with that.¡± ¡°You...¡± Elizabeth raised her hand pointing at Conor''s nose angrily, but she said nothing. Conor took out a wallet from his trouser pocket, took out all the money in it, and stuffed it into Elizabeth¡¯s hand pointing at his nose. ¡°Elizabeth, you are not good enough for me. Your identity, your education, your family are all not worthy of me. Besides, if I marry you, I not only need to support you, but also your stingy mom, handicapped dad, and even your worthless brother. In this way, I will be very tired in the future. Take this money as mypensation for you. When I graduate and get a good job, I''ll pay you back with interest.¡± Conor sighed, shaking his head. Elizabeth threw the money at Conor¡¯s face directly. Conor was stunned, looking at Elizabeth. He was not angry because Elizabeth insulted him, but squatted down to pick up the money. Elizabeth watched in amazement as Conor put the money he had picked up back into his wallet. Conor spoke impatiently, ¡°It is you don¡¯t want the money. well, I was wrong first, and you should be angry.¡± ¡°Conor, we have been ssmates in high school for three years and in a rtionship for a year. I didn''t expect you are dating two girls!¡± Elizabeth said with a crying voice. She was in the work-study program and took care of him in every weekend, but he had another girlfriend and lived with her! Conor nced at Elizabeth and was silent for a moment. He didn''t know what to say, so he turned and walked away silently. He did not want to tangle with this woman. Since she had known about the fact, they would have nothing to do with each other. In fact, Elizabeth was more beautiful than Rachel, but Rachel had a rich family. Rachel was from LH City and had several houses in this city. Her parents knew someone with strong background. If, he married Rachel, he would not be struggle for life. If, he married Elizabeth, he would have to work hard all his life! Therefore, Conor chose Rachel rather than Elizabeth. Elizabeth watched Conor going away and shed tears until he disappeared in the darkness. She could not cry out at the most painful moment, but she finally cried out after the pain. Obviously, love was beautiful, but he destroyed it. Conor loved Elizabeth before, but that kind of love was defeated by reality. He couldn¡¯t run a marathon of tonic love with her, so in order to make himself better, he must abandon her. Elizabeth went to Conor''s bedroom and took back her suitcase. Stephen and Bob, Conor''s roommates worried about Elizabeth, but after seeing the smile on her face, theyforted her and sent her to the long distance bus station with Joseph. Before leaving, Joseph said in a deep voice, ¡°Don''t me me, Elizabeth. You''re a good girl, and I don''t want you to be kept in the dark. You will meet a man who loves you and treats you well in the future.¡± ¡°Yes! Conor is a baster! Don''t be too sad!¡± Stephen chimed in. Bob alsoforted, ¡°Conor is a baster, but we are not! There are still good men in this world. Don''t give up on love, Elizabeth!¡± ¡°Well, thank you.¡± Elizabeth smiled with relief. These three boys were righteous to her! ¡°It seems that no one help us wash clothes in the future!¡± Stephen said. N?velDrama.Org (C) content. Bob immediately patted Stephen on the top of his head, ¡°You bastard, wash by yourself?¡± Elizabeth couldn''t helpughing. ¡°The bus is about to start. Elizabeth, get in! Be safe.¡± Said Joseph. Elizabeth nodded, waved and said goodbye to the three, then turned on the bus and set foot on the way home. As the bus moved, it drove out of the station. With one hand around Joseph''s shoulder and the other over Bob''s shoulder, Bob walked side by side with them. ¡°Joseph, do you like Elizabeth?¡± Bob asked while walking. Stephen patted Joseph''s chest and said, ¡°Sure he is. You must suffer from the secret love for her for the past one year since you knew her!¡± Chapter 12 Can鈥檛 be Compared Chapter 12 Can¡¯t be Compared ¡°You are overthinking, I just can¡¯t stand Conor.¡± Joseph replied dryly. Bob and Stephen smiled at each other. They just keep it tacit. Home should be the warmest ce. But Elizabeth had a cold home. Seeing Elizabethe back from LH City dragging suitcase, Maisie, her mother did not show concern about her, but said cynically, ¡°Why do you work in a big city with low academic qualification? You are overestimating yourself!¡± ¡°Mom, I have not graduated so it is not easy to find a job without graduation certificate!¡± Elizabeth countered. Maisie was still contemptuous, ¡°Drop out of your school. Anyway, it is a waste of money. What can you do even if you get the diploma? You just have a degree in junior college school, nopany in a big city wants you.¡± Maisie¡¯s words like a sword stabbed in the heart of Elizabeth. She did not want to talk with Maisie anymore and went upstairs carrying the suitcase. She wasn¡¯t supposed toe back! ¡°You¡¯re not half as good as Winnie! And don¡¯t wish me and your dad to pay for your second year of college!¡± Maisie shouted at the top of her voice. Winnie was Elizabeth¡¯s cousin and a daughter from a rich family. Maisie liked her so much that Elizabeth had a kind of illusion that Winnie Rees was born by her mother and she was adopted. Elizabeth mmed the door, with tears falling down her face. She was not in the mood to have dinner. She heard that Maisie saying to her father Martin outside the door, ¡°Elizabeth is useless! Winnie studies in foreign first-ss undergraduate university and won the first-ss schrship every semester! Elizabeth is not a match to her!¡± ¡°Elizabeth gets the first schrship every semester too! Honey, don¡¯t say that, Winnie is Elizabeth¡¯s cousin, and your sister has married into a rich family, so we cannotpare between them.¡± Elizabeth¡¯s was impatient. Maisie said, ¡°Why not? Elizabeth¡¯s schrship of the ordinary school was not the same with that of Winnie. They were both born in the same room on the same day, but how could they be so different?¡± But the difference was normal, anyway Elizabeth was not... ¡°Honey, actually Elizabeth is not...¡± Martin interrupted the thoughts of Maisie. Maisie was sensitive, wondering if her husband had known about the things of Elizabeth. Martin changed the subject and sighed bitterly, ¡°It is not that Elizabeth did badly in the college entrance examination, but that in order to take care of me and raise my medical expenses, she spent her study time in taking care of me in the hospital and taking part-time jobs to earn money. That was why she failed in the exam!¡± Maisie felt relieved and answered disapprovingly, ¡°She is your daughter and she should take care of you! Otherwise, I have kept her for eighteen years in vain!¡± How indifferent her mother was to her. Elizabeth suffered from her mother¡¯s sarcastic remarks during these days she stayed at home. No matter how diligent she was at home, washing clothes, cooking, helping to take care of the family pharmacy, her mother always had endless dissatisfaction andints with her. When having dinner on one day, Maisie suddenly mentioned Snow Sue. ¡°Elizabeth! Snow and you are college ssmates! I heard that Snow has a rich boyfriend in LH City. Her boyfriend gives her pocket money like hundreds of thousands of yuan a month! Now, Snow not only bought her grandparents a three-story house in our town, but also built a four-story vi in our vige. It is said that there is a garden in front, and vegetable garden with a pond behind!¡± Maisie said while she was eating. Maisie said with envy. Elizabeth froze for a moment. Suddenly she remembered something, and soon she pretended nothing had happened and went on eating. She knew Snow suddenly had a fiance and was get married, but she did not expect Snow¡¯s fiance was so rich that he gave Snow hundreds of thousands of pocket money every month. Snow had always been a spendthrift, so she could spend out that money in a month. ¡°Elizabeth, you are beautiful than Snow, but you are bad at choosing a man. What is good about Conor? He is just the only one undergraduate student in LH City University from our vige! His family is poor and his tuition was collected from the vigers. He is far worse than Snow¡¯s boyfriend. I don¡¯t know why you like him. And you still want to marry him after graduation, and help him take care of his Content ? N?velDrama.Org. father and mother at home, and his old and sick grandparents!¡± Maisie rambled on. When mentioning of Conor, Elizabeth put the bowl and chopsticks heavily on the table, which gave her parents a fright. ¡°He and I have broken up, now you are satisfied!¡± Elizabeth roared with tears in eyes. Maisie was angry immediately, and then scolded angrily, ¡°How dare you roar? Do you show some respect? What does it matter to me if you break up? What right do you have to yell at me?¡± ¡°Honey, don¡¯t say that!¡± Martin said with a sigh. In fact,pared to Conor¡¯s family, Elizabeth¡¯s family was not good either. Her mother ran a small Pharmacy with a dozen square meters on the first floor of the family in this small town. Her father had bad legs, so he could only sit in front of the revenue desk to collect money. Moreover, because of her father¡¯s leg illness, the family owed some debts to rtives and friends. As for her brother... Although he had a job, he needed to take money from the family every month. Maisie breathed a sigh of relief and rxed her tone lightly. After ncing at Elizabeth, she said, ¡°Aren¡¯t you and Snow are best friend? You go and talk to her and ask her to help you out and give you some money so you can finish college.¡± ¡°Mom, what are you talking about?¡± Elizabeth became angry immediately. Chapter 13 You Did It Again Chapter 13 You Did It Again She did not know why Snow broke up with her before, now, she finally understood. Everyone in this vige knew what kind of person her mother was. ¡°Don¡¯t you understand what I¡¯m talking about? Simple! I will not support you to the junior college. If you want to finish college, you can earn your tuition and living expenses. I know you worked while you were in school. Where is the money you earn through your work-study program? Where is it?¡± Maisie asked angrily. Elizabeth was silent. Maisie gushed again, ¡°You probably gave the money to that poor boy Conor! Learn from Snow, have a rich boyfriend! Since you have low degree in school and do not have ability to make big money, you should know someone rich! What¡¯s the use of your beauty? You don¡¯t even take advantage of it!¡± Elizabeth was speechless. She didn¡¯t agree with her mother, so she said nothing. Martin sat aside and could not get a word in edgewise. Elizabeth was silent for a moment. Although her eyes were full of sadness, anger and hatred, she said with ambition, ¡°I will not learn from Snow to pick on rich men. I won¡¯t learn Conor who dislikes the poor but loves the rich. So what with my junior college degree? I am not capable now, it does not mean that I will be incapable forever. I will earn money by myself, at least I fell at ease to spend them!¡± ¡°Elizabeth, I support you! You will have a promising future!¡± Martin thumbed up immediately to Elizabeth. Her father was the only one understood her in the family. Maisie no longer argued with Elizabeth. Anyway, what was the point of just bickering? When Maisie had finished her meal, she put the chopsticks on the table and stood up, giving an impatient order, ¡°Wash the bowls as soon as possible, and then go to the mountains to pick up some herbs.¡± ¡°Fine!¡± Elizabeth responded lightly. Maisie was not satisfied again and began to chatter, ¡°You did not go home every time you have a holiday. Now that you¡¯re home, go to work! Score, washed and air-dry the herbs after you.collect them. I wanted you to learn some medicine from your grandmother, hoping that you would be a doctor in the future. However, you failed to go to a medical university, but study in an architecture school to learn interior design. I wonder what¡¯s going on in your head!¡± Maisie¡¯s words had always been unpleasant to hear. Although Elizabeth had been ustomed to it, asionally she talked back. Martin was always a good man beside him, trying to ease the anger of the mother and daughter. Maisie went to the pharmacy downstairs. After Martin finished eating, Elizabeth got up to clear the table. Seeing she was unhappy at home, Martin said to her, ¡°Elizabeth! Why don¡¯t you go to work in your brother¡¯s city this summer vacation? With your brother to be with you, at least I feel relieved!¡± ¡°Dad, am I really as bad as Mama says?¡± Elizabeth asked with a dejected heart, ¡°Why does mom always have so much dissatisfaction with me?¡± In her senior year of high school, she neglected her studies in order to take care of her father, so that she failed to get into the medical university that Maisie hoped for. She fell in love after she graduated from high school, Maisie kept scolding her. Martin showed a smile, ¡°You are good girl. You are filial, clever, sensible, diligent and ambitious. Your mother just wants you to be better. After all, parents expect their children to be sessful.¡± ¡°Well, I see.¡± Elizabeth eased her mood and said with a smile, ¡°Thank you Dad.¡± She hoped that the reason her mother was strict to her was as her father said. Snow sent someone to carry out investigation on Elizabeth. Knowing that she was forced to find a job, broke up with her boyfriend and left LH City back to her hometown, Snow felt relieved. Next, Snow must think of a way to let the school leaders expel Elizabeth. Because, in this way, Elizabeth would never appear in LH City and Snow felt safe in the position as a richdy in Marsh Family. At the thought of this, Snow felt happy. It had been almost two months, and her vi in hometown should be finished soon! Snow asked Butler Lau to arrange for that she wanted to go home in style. It was a very busy day in the small town, not only because the sky was cloudless, but also because a million-dor cinnabar red BMW was driving slowly down the road. Everyone stood on the roadside, looking at this beautiful BMW, as if it was a treasure. Snow originally wanted to buy a red Lamborghini worth tens of millions, but Butler Lau refused, saying that Lamborghini was not suitable for bumpy road in the countryside. In desperation, Snow had to choose BMW which was ordinary to her. When Snow¡¯s BMW passed by the door of the pharmacy of Maisie, Maisie pulled Elizabeth mo together out of the shop, standing on the roadside to watch. It had been nearly two months that Elizabeth had not seen Snow. Snow sat in the back seat of the driver¡¯s seat, waving to the neighborhood. Wearing a dazzling diamond ring on her right hand and heavy make-up, Snow was dressed more fashionably than ever, and her skin was particrly fine with her bright red lips. At first, Elizabeth thought something had happened to her. Now it seemed that she really married a rich man, just as Maisie said. To be married to a rich man had been Snow¡¯s dream. Her dream hade true! Elizabeth smiled, nced at the envious Maisie, shook her head slightly, and turned back to the store. Content ? N?velDrama.Org. Martin sat in front of the revenue table to sort out the books. Seeing that Elizabethe in, he asked, ¡°Elizabeth, do you envy?¡± ¡°Yes, I do. I¡¯m not a saint. But I hope in the future, I can be an excellent interior designer, and then I can drive a car that I bought with my own money. That will be awesome!¡± Elizabeth, with a smile on her face, was full of hope for his future. As she spoke, she picked up the basket on the ground beside her and carried it behind her back. Chapter 14 Can鈥檛 Move and Be in Pain Chapter 14 Can¡¯t Move and Be in Pain Martin took out a small medicine box from under the cashier desk to Elizabeth and said to her, ¡°There are snakes in the mountain, be careful.¡± ¡°Well, I see. Then I¡¯ll go up to the mountain to get the medicine!¡± Elizabeth took the medicine box in her father¡¯s hand and put it in the bamboo basket behind her. Then she went to the back door, stepped on the field path and went to the opposite mountain. She helped her mother to go up to the mountain to collect herbs every day during this period she stayed at home. When one mountain was finished, she went to the next, and each mountain was deeper than thest. Maisie alwayspared her with Snow or Winnie. In a word, other people¡¯s daughter was the best, and Elizabeth was not as good as other people¡¯s daughter. Maisie wanted Anthony Lawrence her brother to learn medicine to her grandmother, but he was not interested in Traditional Chinese medicine and did not want to spend his whole life in this remote and poor vige. Elizabeth had been collecting herbs in the mountains with her grandmother since she was a child, and she was very interested in Traditional Chinese medicine. Unfortunately, she failed to get admitted to a medical university, and Maisie refused to pay for her to study again. Therefore, she had to make do with life in this way. The mountain was not bustling and noisy like a city, but it had the prosperity of nature. Elizabeth squatted under a tree, collecting herbs in the withered branches and green grass, while listening to the singing of insects and birds. Today she was lucky that she picked lucid ganoderma and ginseng. Unconsciously, she had entered the deep mountain with towering trees and streams. Although it was summer, it was warm as spring. When Elizabetht picked a pinellia grass, she lifted eyes inadvertently and found a few beautiful deep purple flowers in the bush. From a distance they looked like pretty corn poppy. It was natural for girls to love flowers. Since the flower was beautiful, she wanted to took it back and nt it. When Elizabeth went over to have a look at them, she shocked. This was not a corn poppy, but...poppy! Poppies were an alien species. They were naturally absent in the vige. Why, then, were there poppies in the mountains? Elizabeth thought for a while and pulled out the poppies, put them into the bamboo basket behind and covered them with other herbs. Following the shapeless winding mountain road, Elizabeth continued to walk until she reached the top of the mountain, where she stood on a big rock and looked into the distance. The clouds were around the mountains, and it is as beautiful as arcadia. Elizabeth looked down from the distance. At the foot of the mountain, surrounded by mountains, there was arge field of red, pink, orange, yellow and purple flowers. Obviously, that vast field of flowers did not grow naturally. Those flowers...were poppies?! Who on earth was hiding in these mountains and wild forests to grow poppies? Elizabeth suddenly understood, turned and ran. The speed went down from the mountain was faster. When she was halfway down the mountain, she heard a scream. It was a man¡¯s voice. Elizabeth, frowning, subconsciously hid in a pile of bushes. ¡°Crack -- crack -- crack --¡± ¡°Is the snake dead?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know! Get on my back and I¡¯ll carry you down to the doctor.¡± After hearing the voice of this person, Elizabeth suddenly felt familiar with it. ¡°No...I can¡¯t move. My feet are numb...And it hurts!¡± It was another man¡¯s voice. Darkened her eyes, Elizabeth tried to find where the two men¡¯s voice came. Under a tree not ten metres away, there were two men in their Hmong costumes. Seeing two blood holes in one of the men¡¯s ankles and a motionless ck and white snake lying near his feet, Elizabeth put down the bamboo basket on her back to check the man¡¯s wounds. ¡°Coral snakes don¡¯t usually attack people. You must have stepped on it by ident.¡± Elizabeth took out the medicine cab from the bamboo basket and took out a small wooden box. There were several small brown pills in it. Without another word, she took one of the small pills, put it directly into the man¡¯s mouth, and told him to swallow it. Then, Elizabeth took out a syringe and snake venom serum to give the man a shot. The two men looked at each other, but they didn¡¯t fight back because they knew she was saving him. N?velDrama.Org (C) content. Then, Elizabeth took out the kettle from the bamboo basket and unscrewed the cap, and while she was washing the man¡¯s calf wound, she took out the tamping medicine bowl from the medicine box. Then she took the herbs from the basket and put them in the bowl, mashed them and put them on the man¡¯s calf wound, and took gauze to help him to fix it. ¡°After going down the mountain, see a doctor in town.¡± Elizabeth said and caught the eyes of another man when she raised her eyes. He had cold dark eyes and defined face. Though his dry lips and chin were covered with beard, his skin on his face showed that he was a young man in his twenties. They put on make-up to disguise who they really were. Although they were dressed in their own clothes, the ents with which she had just heard them were not at all like those of the people who lived there. ¡°Thank you for saving my friend.¡± The man thanked Elizabeth. Elizabeth was familiar with his voice. Suddenly, something came to her mind. She put her hand into the man¡¯s face and tore off the beard. ¡°It¡¯s you again!¡± Elizabeth clutched the fake beard in her hand and stared at Jasper Marsh. This man was really haunted! Jasper pressed his lips and showed a shy smile. ¡°Hi, Honey, we meet again!¡± ¡°Do you know each other?¡± Paul Han, bitten by a snake, looked at Elizabeth with a startled look. Jasper poked Paul on the shoulder with his elbow and said solemnly, ¡°She is Elizabeth, my girlfriend.¡± ¡°Thank you for saving my life, Elizabeth!¡± Paul nodded. Frowning, Elizabeth did not pay attention to the two men, but casually picked up a branch to stir that coral snake. ¡°Dead already?¡± Elizabeth soliloquized, wondering whether she should take the snake back to make Chinese medicine. But the snake suddenly moved again. Seeing the snake moved again, Paul was scared and shrunk in into the arm of Jasper, hanging his hands around Jasper¡¯s neck like a girl. He was terrified of it biting him again. Chapter 15 Take Care of It as Soon as Possible Chapter 15 Take Care of It as Soon as Possible After Elizabeth took a branch to push the snake away, she could not helpughing looking back to see Paul¡¯s funny appearance. Her smile was like a flower in full bloom with pure and sweet fragrance, which attracted Jasper. Seeing Jasper was stunned, Paul patted his chest and coughed, ¡°Well, Jasper, we have business to do!¡± At the mention of business, the warm handsome face of Jasper became very serious. ¡°What are you going to do?¡± Elizabeth asked curiously. Jasper and Paul looked at each other, exchanged eyes with unknown meaning. Elizabeth looked at them in amazement. Seeing them not speaking, she suddenly remembered she had seen this man get into an army vehicle, and now he was in this remote mountain forest. In view of this... Elizabeth suddenly thought of something, so she went to her bamboo basket, took out the purple poppies inside, and handed them to Jasper, ¡°Are you looking for this?¡± ¡°This......¡± Paul and Jasper looked at each other after seeing the poppy in Elizabeth¡¯s hand. Frowning, Jasper asked in cold voice, ¡°Where did you pick it?¡± ¡°The terrace beyond this mountain was full of these flowers. Are you two narcotics officers?¡± Elizabeth asked subconsciously. Things like this happened all the time in the border of the country. Jasper and Paul exchanged a look at each other, and remained silent. With a smile, she gave all the poppies to Jasper, ¡°Take them back! You don¡¯t have to climb to the top of the mountain to look. On the other side of the mountain, the mountains surround it, and the further you go, the harder it is to go up. In case you get trapped, I can¡¯t save you. So... You¡¯d better go back and try something else!¡± Jasper handed the flowers to Paul. ¡°We are just tourists,¡± Paul said, smiling at Elizabeth as he stuffed the poppy into the bag behind him. ¡°Let¡¯s go down together!¡± Elizabeth naturally did not believe his words, but she did not expose it. Jasper put Paul¡¯s arm around his shoulders, and then carried Paul on his back. Elizabeth gave a conscious nce at Jasper. The sun, shining through the thick leaves, tore the spots and sprinkled them on his body, as if ayer of gold had coated his handsome face. He was unkempt but good looking, Elizabeth had never seen one before. Jasper inadvertently turned his head and caught the eyes of Elizabeth. Elizabeth turned sharply round and averted her eyes, blushing, from Jasper. Jasper smiled when he found Elizabeth being coyly. After leading them down the mountain, Elizabeth learned that they had parked a local SUV at the foot of the mountain. She hade from mountain to mountain, not realizing that there was a battered local SUV at the foot of the mountain. After putting Paul into the car on the back seat, Jasper turned back to the front of Elizabeth. ¡°Go back after visiting your grandparents, ok?¡± Jasper looked at Elizabeth with spoiled eyes. Butler Lau said that Snow had bought a million-yuan BMW to visit her grandparents in her hometown. Snow¡¯s hometown was here, so he was not surprised to meet her here. Jasper felt that it was a destiny between Snow and him, so every time he encountered difficulties, she would appear in time to help him. And it made his heart get close to her gradually. Even Snow was unbearable as Butler Lau said, he would ept her. She was his beloved woman and she could spend his money. He was willing to give her money to spend, as long as she was happy. Elizabeth looked up the eyes of Jasper, without knowing why the man on earth to say these puzzling words to her. When she was about to ask him something, he suddenly seized her by the shoulders, came a step nearer, bent over her slightly, turned his head aside, and, unexpectedly, kissed her on the lips. Elizabeth suddenly felt a sense of coolness. The man¡¯s kiss, like a dragonfly on her lips for a few seconds, then left. ¡°You said you wanted the stars in the sky, and I ¡®picked¡¯ them for you and made them into a ne N?velDrama.Org (C) content. for you.¡± Jasper whispered softly in Elizabeth¡¯s ear, ¡°Honey, I will finish my work as soon as possible ande back to apany you. I may not be able to go home to see you now, but wait patiently for me.¡± The ¡°home¡± he said was the YISAN Vi he gave to ¡°Snow Sue¡±. He thought ¡°Elizabeth¡± was ¡°Snow¡± who had lived in YISAN Vi. He had not had time to see her in YISAN Vi, but he did not expect that he would meet her here. It was so nice that he could meet her before going back to YISAN Vi. After saying that, he kissed Elizabeth on her forehead. Elizabeth stood in still, stunned. The kiss, for Elizabeth, was like a fire, burning her ears until the man who had kissed her had turned back into the driver¡¯s seat, leaving his warm lips on her lips and forehead, affecting all her thoughts. The SUV was already moving and disappeared in the wind. Elizabeth had an unknown affection to this man. She did not blush before, but his kiss made her panic and at a loss. It was the second time she had seen him since that night. The first time, he suddenly forcibly kissed her and hurried away outside the fruit market. This time he hade and gone so suddenly. He always said strange things to her that keep her confused. Elizabeth found a delicate meteorite ne on her neck after she recovered to sense. The ne was tinum, and it had ck meteorite shaped like a heart, which was wrapped in a Seeing this meteorite ne, Elizabeth suddenly noticed that the jade pendant this man gave her seemed to have disappeared. As she packed up to move the house, she did not see the jade pendant. At this moment, she could not remember where she had put the jade pendant. Chapter 16 Compassion Chapter 16 Compassion Forget it, go home first! Elizabeth pressed her lips, took off the meteorite ne from her neck and carefully put it in her jacket pocket. Then she turned to walk on a field path. These days, Snow''s things made a big deal. After Snow left the town to go back to LH City, every person said to her grandparents that they had a filial granddaughter, who had a rich and handsome boyfriend, and they were about to get married. And they would go the wedding. In fact, from Snow back to the town until she left, they had never seen Snow''s boyfriend. Since Snow went back to her hometown to visit her elders, shouldn''t her boyfriende with her? Maisie said it at the dinner table. ¡°The man has no manners though he was rich. He is a good man!¡± Maisie was like sour grape. Elizabeth exined for Snow, ¡°Since he is rich, he must be busy making money! Besides, it''s not like the parents met. Mom, why nder a man behind his back?¡± ¡°Why do you stand for her?¡± said Maisie angrily. Elizabeth pressed her lips and replied, ¡°I don¡¯t. I just don''t think you should talk behind other people''s backs.¡± ¡°Well, I don''t want to argue with you. I don''t expect you to marry a rich man, anyway.¡± Maisie rolled her eyes at Elizabeth and continued to eat. Martin remained silent. After dinner, Elizabeth took out to call Anthony Lawrence, her brother. ¡°Brother, I am Elizabeth!¡± ¡°How did you change your phone number?¡± ¡°I was home. That mobile phone card is a campus card of LH City Architecture Institute. It is more expensive, so I changed a card.¡± ¡°You are home? Why did you suddenly go home? You still have a month to go to school!¡± ¡°Brother, can you lend me ten thousand yuan?¡± ¡°What do you want ten thousand yuan for?¡± ¡°For the tuition fee of my second year of school, as well as my living expenses!¡± ¡°Why don''t you ask mom and dad?¡± ¡°They won''t give...¡± ¡°But I don''t have so much money! You know, I spent out my money every month with zero deposit and I often asked money from Mom!¡± ¡°Well¡­ I''ll try other ways myself...¡± Elizabeth said in gloomy face. Anthony felt sorry for her and said, ¡°Why don''t you work in my city in thest month of your summer vacation? It is a seaside big city!¡± ¡°I can''t even get a job in LH City. It''s even harder to find a job in your city.¡± Elizabeth lost confidence in herself. Anthony said with a smile, ¡°What are you afraid of? Youe to my city tomorrow, and I will take care of you for a month! There will always be a job to pay for the tuition!¡± ¡°I''ll go now!¡± Elizabeth immediately was full of confidence. ¡°Now?¡± Anthony was astonished. N?velDrama.Org (C) content. Elizabeth said firmly, ¡°Yes! I''ll get the train ticket!¡± ¡°All right! Be careful on your way! Call me when you arrive!¡± ¡°Ok!¡± Elizabeth renerved after the call with her brother. Anyway, her family lived near the train station, so it was easy to buy a ticket. When she left home dragging the suitcase, her father with a walking stick came out of the house. At the year Elizabeth was in junior in high school, her father was a construction worker, and identally fell down from the third floor of the construction site. Although he survived, his leg was broken. Martin hobbled to the front of Elizabeth and put the crumpled two thousand yuan into the hands of Elizabeth. ¡°It''s my private money. Take it.¡± Martin showed a smile on his old face, ¡°Don''t let your mom know.¡± Elizabeth looking at the Martin, nose a sour, tearful hugged the body some of the Martin bent. ¡°Elizabeth! Take good care of yourself. It is important to be happy and optimistic! And there are too many bad men in the world, you must learn to protect yourself!¡± Martin always said that. Elizabeth nodded, wiped away tears and forced a smile. Dragging luggage, she turned out of the door. She dare not look back to see her farther, for fear that she could not help crying again. Elizabeth decided she would go home easily after this trip. Even when she was in the most distressed situation, this home was not her refuge after all. Well¡­ Where was her true refuge? The night gradually swallowed up her lonely back. Elizabeth felt that she had embarked on another endless road... Train station, ticket hall. ¡°Are there really no hard seats? What about the hard sleeper? Soft sleeper also works! As long as there is a ticket! I''ll take it!¡± Elizabeth said repeatedly. She did not expect that the ticket to BJ City was hard to buy. The conductor was impatient, ¡°There is none tonight! There are only for the day after tomorrow, how about buy one for the day after tomorrow?¡± ¡°Hello, I''d like a refund on this soft sleeper ticket to BJ City.¡± At this time, the side of the ticket change window suddenly sounded a maic male voice. Elizabeth had heard it was a ticket to BJ city. When he was about to refund the ticket, she rushed to him and seized his hand. ¡°Sir, can you give me this ticket?¡± Elizabeth begged. She only had the ticket to BJ City in her eyes. She took his hand, trembling. There were traces of crying on her face. The pitiful look made the man distressed. It seemed that this girl wanted to go to BJ City very much. The man showedpassion and said politely, ¡°Sure, but you''ll have to let go of my hand before I can give you the ticket.¡± Elizabeth realized at the time that she was grasping his hand. ¡°Yes, I''m sorry!¡± Subconsciously she let go of his hand and apologized awkwardly. The man''s voice, as usual, was soft and pleasant to hear, ¡°It doesn''t matter.¡± Hearing this pleasant voice, Elizabeth raised her head in amazement and looked at the man. He was dressed in a dark silver suit, elegant and refined, tall but not burly, at least 1.8 meters tall. And this man''s features, like God''s hand crafted works of art, were perfect. He was handsome! This was Elizabeth''s first impression of this man. It was first time in her life that she has been a nympho. Oh, no! It was her second time being a nymphomaniac! Chapter 17 Cried for That Man Chapter 17 Cried for That Man Because Elizabeth feel the man looked like that man broke into her house at that night. ¡°You...¡± Elizabeth hesitated and thought there was no a coincidence in the world. ¡°Give me your ID card.¡± The man said with a warm face like spring breeze. His sharp ck eyes were cold and deep, but they were gentle. And he had some resemnce to the man she had saved. Elizabeth held out her ID card to the man in a daze. The man took Elizabeth''s ID card and said to the clerk at the window, ¡°Hello, could you please refund this ticket for me and then use this ID card to buy this ticket again?¡± ¡°Yes, just a moment, please.¡± ¡°......¡± ¡°Keep your ticket and id card, please. Have a nice trip!¡± ¡°Here''s your ticket!¡± the man smiled, put the ticket and id card into Elizabeth''s hand and turned to leave gracefully. ¡°Wait...¡± I haven''t paid you yet... After Elizabeth recovered to her sense, the man disappeared in the bustling ticket hall. However, she managed to get a ticket to BJ City. Elizabeth took the ticket on the express train. In the conductor''s lead, Elizabeth realized that this ticket turned out to be ¡°senior soft sleeper¡±! The conductor pushed open the door and smiled at Elizabeth. Elizabeth walked into the luxurious carriage and found a man sat on the sofa talking on the phone with others. And this man... was who gave her this ticket! Elizabeth was in surprise. ¡°I''m already on the train. If the car can''t be fixed, send someone to tow it. Well, I''m in a webinar right now, and I''ll get back to the rest.¡± The man finally hung up the phone. Just as Elizabeth wanted to give him the ticket money, the man picked up the headset, put a silverptop on hisp, and spoke fluently in English. Elizabeth leaned over to take a look, only to find that the man was chatting with several foreigners in suits. Er...That was high end! Elizabeth had to sit back to the seat, looking around the carriage of this superior soft sleeper. Under the hanging twin beds were two sofas, with a shared coffee table with an internal mobile phone on it, a TV on the other side, and a private bathroom, with wireless Inte. The tone of the carriage was noble gold, which looked luxurious. The man seemed to want to talk for a long time, Elizabeth had to lie on the sofa and y on the cell phone. Later, she was hungry. Elizabeth remembered that she did not eat dinner. She had to catch the train, so she did not buy something to eat. After about an hour, the man finally took off his headset and closed hisptop. Elizabeth got up from the sofa and greeted with the man, ¡°Hello! Thank you for giving me the ticket. How much is it, please? I''ll give you the money.¡± The man looked at Elizabeth after hearing that. However, before the man spoke, Elizabeth¡¯s belly suddenly sounded because of hunger. Elizabeth was in embarrassment. The man smiled, picked up the mobile phone on the tea table, looked at Elizabeth and asked, ¡°Do you have any dishes that you don''t eat?¡± Elizabeth shook her head subconsciously. The man ordered food over the phone. ¡°I didn''t have dinner either. Let''s have dinner together.¡± The man hung up the phone and said with a smile. Elizabeth seemed to understand that the man did not want to take her ticket money, so she stopped asking. After the food was served, the man took out his own chopsticks. He identally saw the woman sitting opposite him looking at himself with embarrassment. Perhaps feeling he was special, the man put away his chopsticks, picked up the disposable chopsticks and ate with Elizabeth. Elizabeth said hurriedly, ¡°It doesn''t matter, you don''t have to care about me. You can do whatever you want.¡± She said with an embarrassing smile on her face. The man smiled and gracefully picked up the disposable tableware for dinner. Elizabeth secretly looked at the man while eating. His demeanour was aristocratic and he did not fit to the surroundings. It was a ¡°superior soft sleeper¡± carriage, but it still made him look condescending. The gap between people may be here. After eating, the steward took away the dinner box on the coffee table. Elizabeth and the man did not have much conversation. Elizabeth was bored and took out her phone to pay games.

Chapter 18 Love His Girlfriend Chapter 18 Love His Girlfriend The man lifted his eyes to see Elizabeth. He smiled, ¡°Sure if you sing well.¡± Elizabeth was embarrassed. Blushing, she picked up the phone and turned on the recorder. As she looked up at the man sitting opposite her, she remembered the man who had been hurt that night... Was it the same person or not? Elizabeth was not sure but she thought they looked like. If he was not, she felt difference between their personalities. Although she saw him twiceter, but the man kissed her forcibly every time he appeared. And this man in front of her was elegant! Seeing this handsome man, Elizabeth would be confused, so she simply closed her eyes and began to sing. After Elizabeth finished singing, she immediately sent a message to Ciara. She hoped that her singing would really bringfort to her friend. At this point, apuse was heard. Elizabeth looked to the sound and saw the man put down his hand, smiled and praised, ¡°You sing very well.¡± ¡°Thank you!¡± Elizabeth was d to hear that. The man then said, ¡°Can you sing another song?¡± ¡°Which song do you want to hear?¡± ¡°The one you are good at.¡± ¡°Ok!¡± Elizabeth smile, found out the lyrics on the phone, and sang a cheerful song. The man listened andy down on the sofa. With his hands crossed on the back of his head and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, he listened quietly with his eyes closed. Undeniably, the girl''s voice was really good, like a sweet but not greasy. After singing, Elizabeth found that the man had been lying on the sofa asleep. The air conditioning temperature in thepartment was low. Elizabeth took the thin quilt in the opposite bed and covered it gently for the man. The sleeping appearance of this man was good-looking. His face was bright and fair, his eyebrows were bushy, his nose was high, and his lips were beautiful, all of which showed nobility and grace. Looking at the man''s sleep, Elizabeth suddenly felt very familiar with it. As she thought about it for a moment, she realized that the man in front of her looked very much like the man who had crawled into her room wounded that night and whom she had kindly saved. But how could it be so coincidental? She had already left LH City. Looking at this elegant man, Elizabeth could not help but smile. In her most awkward time, it was good that she met a kind person...... The next morning, the train was about to arrive at BJ City. After Hugo Marsh woke up, he found himself covered with a thin quilt, subconsciously he looked to the opposite bed. The girly on her side, sleeping peacefully. This quilt on the body should be covered by this girlst night! Hugo smiled with certainty. At this moment, the steward knocked on the door of the carriage and gently reminded, ¡°Dear passengers, the train will arrive at BJ City in half an hour.¡± It seemed that she heard the knock on the door and warm reminder, the girl, frowning, was about to wake up. Hugo came to his sense, took out the toiletries from the suitcase, and went into the bathroom. Elizabeth sat up suddenly on the bed, hurriedly took out her phone and looked at the time. She breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that if she had overslept. She moved to the bed side in a daze, wanted to step the pedal to get down, but she identally fell down. ¡°Bang!¡± ¡°Ah -¡± Outside the door came a cry of pain. Hugo immediately put down his towel, opened the door and went out. The girl sat on the ground, scowling and rubbing the ankle of her right foot. ¡°What''s the matter with you?¡± Hugo quickly walked to the side of Elizabeth, squatted down and asked with concern. Elizabeth pressed her lips and did not want to tell him that she had fallen out of bed because she had missed her footing. Elizabeth was silent. Hugo could guess what happened, he could not helpughing. What a silly girl! ¡°What''s so funny...¡± Elizabeth was frowning and muttering, with someints in her voice. ¡°I''m sorry.¡± Hugo looked at Elizabeth and apologized politely. Then he reached out and grabbed her ankle. No sooner had he touched her than she cried ¡°Pain¡±. She was in sprain. ¡°I''ll help you up first!¡± Hugo grasped Elizabeth''s arm. When he pulled her up, he found that this girl was light In other words, this girl was thin and looked a little fragile. ¡°Thank you.¡± Elizabeth said politely and then sat down on the sofa. ¡°You''re wee.¡± Hugo smiled, and then turned to pack up his things. After the train arrived at the station, Elizabeth pulled the suitcase, while hopping forward with one foot. Hugo called the steward to help him to take the suitcase. He walked up to the Elizabeth and held her up. The sudden embrace made Elizabeth ttered, and the suitcase in hand was taken by the steward. The steward just saw them off the train and out of the security line. Hugo put her down, and then pointed to his suitcase and said, ¡°You can sit on my suitcase and I will push you.¡± ¡°Thank you. That¡¯s all right. I can go by myself.¡± Elizabeth declined with a smile. ¡°Are you sure you''re going to hop all the way?¡± asked Hugo, frowning at the exit which was far away. Elizabeth took a nce not at the exit, as well as this crowded crowd. ¡°I, I, sit on your suitcase!¡± Elizabeth smiled awkwardly. Hugo showed a smile and carried Elizabeth to the suitcase. His suitcase was big and sturdy. It was good for a person to sit on it, and Elizabeth was light. Hugo pushed his suitcase with one and pulled Elizabeth¡¯s suitcase with the other. He told Elizabeth, Content ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Sit firmly.¡± Chapter 19 She Save Him Chapter 19 She Save Him In the eyes of others, especially in the eyes of the women passing by, such a handsome boy really spoiled his girlfriend! Therefore, Elizabeth found that there are many young women cast envious eyes to her. However, to tell the truth, Elizabeth found that it was funny to be pushed sitting on the suitcase. Out of the station, a red Ferrari parked on the side of the road was particrly attractive. Hugo pushed Elizabeth toward the red Ferrari. At this point, a woman in a ck suit dress and high heels, fashionable and professional, got off the car. She had her hair cut short, with a mane of hair falling behind her right ear and a string of tinum tassel earrings hanging from her lobe. ¡°Hugo, I thought you couldn''t make it.¡± The woman came forward with a big smile, but her smile suddenly stopped when she saw a strange woman sitting on a suitcase of Hugo. ¡°Well.¡± Hugo echoed faintly to the sound. On his way back to BJ City, his car broke down for no reason and he almost had a car ident. He failed to book a ne ticket or a high-speed train ticket, but luckily there was a train station nearby. ¡°Where''s your assistant? Why isn''t he with you?¡± The woman asked, ignoring Elizabeth. ¡°He went awayst night because something happened at home,¡± answered Hugo in a few words. He did not intend to return his assistant''s train ticket, but feeling that someone else might need it, he kindly did so. As it turned out, someone really needed the train ticket. After a pause, Hugo continued, ¡°Take thisdy to the hospital first. She sprained her ankle.¡± ¡°And you?¡± The woman pursed her red lips involuntarily. ¡°I''ll take a taxi myself. I am going first.¡± Hugo seemed to be in a hurry. He picked up his briefcase and ran to the tform over there. Before she could thank Hugo, Elizabeth watched his back leaving. She turned around to look at the jealous woman in front of her and said with a smile, ¡°Actually... my foot is ok...¡± ¡°Since it is ok, why don¡¯t you get down from the suitcase?¡± snapped the woman. Elizabeth immediately jumped down from Hugo¡¯s suitcase,nding on one foot. When the woman saw that she was jumping on one foot and lifting up her right foot, not as if she were pretending to be ill, and because of Hugo, she asked, ¡°What is your rtionship with Hugo? ¡°What?¡± Elizabeth froze what was the rtionship? ¡°Well, you have abined ''urban and rural'' feeling, you sure have nothing to do with Hugo.¡± The woman said to herself. Elizabeth heard the irony in her remarks, but she knew that the woman was interested in that man, so she grinned. ¡°Do you know how I hurt my foot?¡± ¡°How?¡± The woman rolled her eyes. ¡°We did strenuous exercise on a narrow bed on the train. We immersed in it and identally fell off the bed together,¡± said Elizabeth. ¡°You...¡± Sure enough, the woman became anxious. The reason why the women were so credulous of Elizabeth''s words was simply because what Hugo did to Elizabeth had never been done to other women. Hugo never had an affair with any woman, let alone let a woman sitting on his suitcase, and he pushes it! What was more, he chose take a taxi in order for her to take this woman to the hospital. Did this woman know what Hugo was? Hannah Smith, staring at Elizabeth, gnashed her teeth out of anger. Elizabeth smirked with satisfaction. Hannah rolled eyes at Elizabeth, grabbed Hugo¡¯s suitcase, turned to her sports car, and drove the car away. After Hannah left, Elizabeth took out her mobile phone to call her brother. The phone rang for a long time, but Anthony did not answer it. Elizabeth he might be sleeping, so she put the suitcase t, sat in the suitcase, waiting for her brother to call back.
