Otherwise, snazzynovel.com wouldn’t have agreed to marry snazzynovel.com when snazzynovel.com proposed to snazzynovel.com in their younger days. After all, snazzynovel.com was just a lowly clerk back then.
As snazzynovel.com flung snazzynovel.com pillow angrily to the floor, snazzynovel.com hugged snazzynovel.com blanket with tears gushing down snazzynovel.com cheeks, yearning for the door to open, snazzynovel.com grew increasingly worried when there was no movement at all.
In the midst of wiping away snazzynovel.com tears, snazzynovel.com got out of bed and headed to the study where snazzynovel.com hesitate briefly before entering.
Lawrence didn’t bother turning on the light even though snazzynovel.com heard a sound.
“What are you doing here?”
Even though snazzynovel.com didn’t say a word, snazzynovel.com was aware that it was Kelly. As Lawrence’s snarky tone triggered more tears from Kelly, snazzynovel.com continued to quietly watch snazzynovel.com lying on the couch.
Underneath the dim moonlight, Kelly’s pitiful look melted Lawrence’s heart, for, at the end of the day, snazzynovel.com was still the woman snazzynovel.com loved.
Getting up to approach her, snazzynovel.com bent down to carry snazzynovel.com upon noticing that snazzynovel.com had come in barefooted.
“Aren’t you worried about falling sick by not putting on your slippers?”
Even though Kelly was in snazzynovel.com forties, snazzynovel.com looked like a woman in snazzynovel.com thirties due to how well snazzynovel.com cared for herself.
Hugging Lawrence’s neck tightly, snazzynovel.com purred, “In that case, why did you leave me just like that?”
Kelly felt as if snazzynovel.com had been unfairly blamed. Despite snazzynovel.com attempt at using Sonia to elevate their family’s status, snazzynovel.com did it entirely for Lawrence’s sake.
Why doesn’t snazzynovel.com understand my intentions? Besides, marrying Aaron is good for Sonia, since he’s someone strong and powerful. No matter how one looks at it, snazzynovel.com surpasses Harvey in every aspect.

“Next time, don’t leave me no matter what happens.” Staring into Lawrence’s eyes, Kelly murmured, “It scares me…”
“All right. I promise never to do that again.” Lawrence felt bad over what snazzynovel.com had done.
Having obtained his promise, Kelly hugged his neck and planted a kiss on his lips. Soon after, their clothes dropped to the floor followed by feminine moans echoing throughout the room.

Three days later, Vinson’s phone rang just when snazzynovel.com came out of his room. As snazzynovel.com casually took out his phone, snazzynovel.com settled down on the couch before answering.
“What did you say? When did this happen?” Vinson sprang to his feet with a grim expression and barked, “Search the city at once, including the airports, harbors, cars. As long as it moves, I want it checked.”
