Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

There was a customized black bulletproof Maybach with a golden dragon clearly inscribed on it. There were bodyguards stationed in front of and behind the car. Judging from the situation, it seemed that there was some important family event going on that day. Lauren glanced over and stopped in her tracks at the same time. She turned around and took a deep breath. Suddenly, she heard a voice from behind when she was about to find a spot to hide before she could leave. "Laurie..."

Lauren paused. She closed her eyes and bit her lower lip. She heard the voice again which got closer when she was about to walk away.

"What's wrong? It's only been a few days since we last met. Have you forgotten about me?"

Lauren remained silent. The person tapped on Lauren's head with a finger and continued, "Is it embarrassing to be around me? You tend to avoid me whenever there's someone else around! Should I bring you to an eye specialist?" Elijah could tell that Lauren was pretending not to see him again!

Judging by Lauren's timid personality, she would keep on hiding if Elijah didn't stop her.

Lauren blinked her eyes and turned around slowly. She was then staring at a well-poised, suited man before her.

"Elijah, I..."

After greeting Elijah, Lauren inadvertently took a glance at the entrance of East Bannpool.

Following Lauren's gaze, Elijah could guess what Lauren was thinking. He said, "You don't have to keep searching for it. Uncle and Mom aren't here! I'm here on business!"

Did that mean that he went through all these troubles to put on a show just to prove that he was powerful?

As soon as he finished speaking, Lauren changed her attitude completely. She grabbed Elijah's arm and said with a smile,

"I'm not worried about this! Elijah, what a coincidence. How is everyone at home? I miss you and Aunt so much!"

"Well, if you truly miss me, why were you trying to hide from me?"

Elijah raised his hand and flicked Lauren's forehead playfully. He frowned in disgust when she saw Lauren dressed in simple attire.

"Why haven't I seen you giving a lecture recently? Is there a new research topic? My mother just mentioned to me two days ago that she hasn't seen you for a long time! You're such a beautiful girl, but you just like to dress like a boy. Don't you know how to do yourself up properly?"

Lauren lowered her head in response to Elijah's reproach. She was used to it, but she couldn't help sticking out her tongue as she thought, "Elijah is so long-winded, every single time!"

Lauren felt touched at that moment. There were too many things that happened lately, and she felt overwhelmed with sadness and grievances. However, she did not say anything.

She deliberately made a phone call to her family members to inform them that she was safe when the explosion happened. She was out of prison then, and she was hesitant to tell them more about her situation at that time.

In fact, Lauren was deep down a stubborn woman. Subconsciously, she did not want her family to see her while she was in a mess.

Therefore, she just smiled and didn't mention anything else.

"The next time I see you, I'll definitely dress properly to avoid embarrassing you. All right, Mr. Luther? Otherwise, you'll always look at me in disdain! Elijah, fortunately, I'm not your girlfriend!"

Otherwise, it would be such torture for Lauren to be lectured by Elijah everyday.

Elijah rolled his eyes at Lauren. Seeing her slender figure, Elijah felt heartbroken. He said, "Were you so occupied in your research that you didn't eat and sleep well? Why are you becoming thinner? Laurie, you're the eldest daughter of the Luther family..." Lauren was not short of money. Why didn't she take care of herself more?

Lauren's facial expression changed drastically when Elijah mentioned the Luther family, and she looked more gloomed then. Elijah knew that he was approaching sensitive territory, so he said with a sigh,

"Forget it! You're so stubborn!" She wouldn't listen!

Elijah took out his wallet and gave Lauren some cash. He said, "I don't have time to buy things for you. Go and get something you like!"

Elijah would take some time and

would insist to buy some things for Lauren whenever he met her in the past, as he knew that Lauren was a stubborn person. She was used to being independent since young Hence, she didn't like to take people's money, especially from her family. Therefore, Elijah would buy some gifts and got it ready for Lauren instead each time, and she would then have no choice but to

accept the gifts.

That was the way they usually got along with each other. Therefore, Elijah felt that he had to give Lauren something whenever they met each other. Lauren would never accept a bank card from him. As for cash, Elijah did not dare to give her much. "Just see it as me treating you to a good meal!"

After handing the money to Lauren forcefully, Elijah pinched her soft cheeks out of habit. He said, "Don't treat yourself too badly. Do remember to give me a call whenever you encounter any problems. Do you understand?" Lauren was his family. However, for some reason, Lauren was very against to have anything to do with the Luther family.

Lauren, who was short of money, did not hesitate at that moment. She grabbed the money and said, "I got it. Elijah, you are still the one who loves me the most! I'm so happy to get some money from you! Hehe..." Seeing that something was happening at the entrance, Lauren then said, "Elijah, it seems that they can't wait any longer. Get on with your work! I am fine!"

Elijah turned around and took a glance as something flashed through his mind. Then, he

nodded his head and said, "Okay..."

After turning around, he came back again and asked, "By the way, Laurie, what are you doing here on your own in the middle of the night?"

It was a place where Lauren shouldn't be at. Although Lauren was good at fighting, she would still be considered inexperienced when it came to dealing with the kind of people that could be found there. Lauren raised her hand and waved the manila folder in her hand.

"Don't worry, I'm not here to have fun! I was in the area, so I'm just helping a friend get some documents on my way! Do you think I'll act out with you around?"

"Well, I'll ask the driver to send you home!"

There was no room for discussion. Therefore, Lauren could only sigh faintly. She kept a distance from Elijah and walked over to the car.

At that moment, Willy got out of the car on the other side of the entrance. He was stunned when he witnessed what was taking place. Lexx was also so shocked that his eyes were wide open. What was going on?

"Who is he?" Willy asked. He couldn't believe what he just saw, and his expression was sour and intimidating.

"It seems that the car belongs to the Dragons Gang. Judging from the situation, it seems like that's Elijah's car. He is the head of the Dragons Gang!"

Both of them looked at each other. They were quite puzzled, and Willy was extremely angry. Why did Lauren keep messing around with the influential people? Did she have a death wish?

Still thinking of the man putting his hands on Lauren's face just then, Willy's mood became gloomed instantly.

He couldn't help feeling the urge to rush over. However, Lexx reminded him as he was about to rush over, "Willy, President Lynch is still waiting for us..."

Meanwhile, Lauren had already gotten into a taxi while Willy was still hesitating. However, a black car was escorting the taxi following behind it.

That day, as Lauren managed to

make some money and even ran into her cousin, everything seemed to be going well and she was in a good mood. She decided to have supper with Sharon as she got home. They chatted for a white and then went into their rooms happily. Lauren slept soundly that night once she got into bed, and she even had a good dream. It was a great night, and she slept with a smile.

However, what Lauren didn't know was that on the other side, someone was having the exact opposite

mood. Willy was drinking a lot because he ran into her thrice in night. He could not sleep at all. Memories of what happened at the entrance of East Bannpool flashed across his mind. The intimate chattering and laughter, all the scenes and images were like thorns

stabbing into his heart, and breaking

Willy's heart...
