Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

Chapter 838



Feeling an unprecedented frustration, Lauren failed to notice it was mixed with the admiration of being conquered. She was upset because she was being conquered, and she knew that her skills were no match for him. Still, she only retorted verbally and did not force herself to go all out on him.

In prison, the two of them had exchanged fists a few times before. Naturally, she had suffered quite a bit.

Deeply pleased by her, Willy suddenly discovered that deep down, she was just like an innocent little girl. She was simple-minded. Not only did she not speak much, but she was also obviously not good with words. She would always scold and curse using the same few words.

"Sweetheart, do you know any other words?"

Seeing that he was making fun of her, Lauren was even more furious. "B*stard! Hooligan! Pervert! Lecher! Disgusting..."

What else was there?

Lauren paused and tilted her head, thinking hard. Willy laughed and said, "Alright, enough of that. It's better to fill that little brain of yours with formulas.

Don't let those unrefined words occupy any more headspace."

By listening to how she communicated, he knew that she had not argued with anyone before. Otherwise, why would her vocabulary only be limited to those few words?

Willy didn't want to sully her innocent mind. He lifted his hand and caressed her fluffy hair, "Leave some shrewishness for the wedding. I certainly have no objection! Give me a smile!"

Only then did Lauren think of something. Immediately, she became expressionless. "I'm not a dog!"

When she looked at him again, the corners of her lips curled into a small smile.

That was right! She was going to the wedding to face that jerk of a person. No matter what the truth was, she was already pitiful enough. She couldn't embarrass herself any further!

She wanted an explanation! She wanted justice! She wanted to see with her own eyes if she had really been blind in the past!

When such thought came to her mind, Lauren actually already had a very certain answer. She had an inkling that this might be true when he hadn't come to see her for a long time. Also, while she was signing the bail documents, she saw a copy of guarantor details. There was one digit in the phone number left by Zedd that had been changed from six to eight. She didn't know if it was a mistake or something, but it had left a mark on her heart.

"It's about time. Let's go!"

He picked up the handbag beside them and handed it to her. Then, he bent down to help her put her shoes on. Once they were ready, they walked out of the door.

In the Hyatt International Hotel, a grand engagement banquet was going on in full swing. The big venue was filled with colored lights, twinkling like stars. There were bouquets of rose lilies placed in front of the elevator from the banquet hall. The entire corridor seemed to be flooded in a joyous atmosphere.

As soon as she stepped out of the elevator, Lauren looked at the scene before her eyes, and her grip on her handbag tightened. Lights were flashing and songs were playing; what a joyful scene!

It was such a grand engagement banquet. Was it really his? It was only an engagement banquet, yet they had reserved the whole floor, with flowers and decorations everywhere. Would they really reserve a whole building for their wedding?

Didn't his father only own two fast food restaurants and his mother just a small- time employee? How could he hold a banquet in a five-star hotel like this?

Had there been a mistake? Or perhaps, a misunderstanding? Was another person called Zedd?

Lauren walked like a robot. Along the way, thousands of questions flashed through her mind. When they just reached the door, a male voice sounded. "Mr. Bowles?"

In an instant, Lauren came back to her senses. She looked up and saw a tall and outstanding figure standing in the middle of the corridor. He was even waving at Willy.

"Holger?"

He did not expect that he would see him here. Willy stopped and turned to Lauren, "Wait here!"

"Was Trevor here as well?" He thought.

Willy walked over to Holger and dragged him to the corner because he was afraid that there were people who wanted to cause them trouble. Seeing that the two of them knew each other well, and seemed to be talking about something,

Lauren did not think much and turned around. Her eyes followed the directions on the presentation and fell on the door of the banquet hall.

Was that...

A photo of Zedd and Kylie? Although it was not a wedding photo, it was definitely a couple photo! The intimate kiss between them was like a knife, stabbing her right into the heart.

Alas, it was true!

Even though she had been mentally prepared, seeing it with her own eyes still made her feel like her world was spinning. Subconsciously, she took two steps forward. Then, she followed the sign and reached a lively cocktail party.

The climax was approaching. On the stage, a middle-aged man was talking. From the looks of it, he should be Edwin. He was wearing a suit, talking seriously and cautiously.

Thank you all for coming. Today

is a big day for our family; it's a good day to celebrate! Our family is blessed with such amazing in-laws, and such a beautiful and capable daughter-in-law! Today, apart from their engagement, we have other good news to announce! My son, Zedd, has not only made a

breakthrough in academic studiet

but also been sent overseas for further studies. He is the youngest and most promising chemical expert in Casterwich City. I would also like to announce that Michaels Group's biological research company has officially been handed over to my son, Zedd. He will be in charge of the development of the new product! For the time being, I will manage the company on behalf of him, but he will be taking over after three years! At the same time, my

With a round of applause, the two people on stage also raised their glasses. They toasted before walking to the three-layered cake.

Looking at the scene on the stage,

tears welled up in Lauren's eyes. She

clenched her fists so tightly that they creaked a little. She couldn't believe that while she was being bullied getting eye-rolled at, and gnawing on steamed buns and dried vegetables, he was living a carefree and high-spirited life, with an Aphrodite in his arms.

If Willy hadn't found her, she would still be in prison for him, waiting to live happily with him! How stupid of her to have believed in his bullsh*t!

"Who cares about spoiled princesses like her? She's incapable of doing anything. I could never be like her!" "I hate this kind of heavy makeup the most. It looks so unnatural! I can't stand it!"

" How cheap are you to hook up with every man you see?"

"She's useless! Not only does she look fake, but she's also ugly. She can't even wear her clothes properly, and is always seducing all sorts of men. I have the least respect for people like her!"

"Your legs are as thick as a pig's leg. Aren't you ashamed to show them?"

Her mind was full of Kylie's sarcastic remarks from the past. However, on

a

the stage, she was talking and laughing as she cut the cake. She was being all sweet, which was stark contrast of her sarcastic self in the past! Had he also been doing the same thing behind her back? Had he also devalued and degraded her?

Lauren smiled bitterly and slowly walked over.

"Zedd."

The last illusion she held was completely destroyed. Lauren didn't know why she made a sound, but as she did, the corners of her mouth turned up.
