"If not, what else could it be? Did you think I was planning to call off the wedding?" Coco joked.However, after she said that, Lucas's expression changed. He asked with a slight tremble in his voice, "You... you wouldn't, would you?"Coco was completely taken aback by his reaction to her joke. How insecure must this man feel? Feeling guilty, she quickly reassured him, "Of course not, Lucas. I won't call off the wedding. I’m going to be Mrs. Gomez no matter what!” He finally breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "Yes, you're going to be Mrs. Gomez."Minnie, standing nearby, shivered exaggeratedly. "Could you two at least pity us single folks when you're being all lovey-dovey, Mr. and Mrs. Gomez?"Coco blushed at her friend's words. "Minnie!""Didn't you just say you're going to be Mrs. Gomez? Since I'll have to call you that eventually, I might as well start now," Minnie teased with a laugh.Lucas stopped their banter. "Alright, dinner is ready. Let’s eat first.""Great!" M

There was still a slight difference in her walking compared to a completely normal person. Anyone who looked closely could notice it.Coco felt many curious, surprised, and even mocking glances thrown at her. She instinctively wanted to back out, but she knew she had to face it. If she couldn't handle it now, how could she stay by Lucas's side in the long years to come? There would only be more challenges in the future.People came up to greet Lucas, and when they looked at Coco, Lucas introduced her as his fiancée. When he said the word ‘fiancée’, not only was the person surprised, but even Coco was taken aback. She had thought he would introduce her as his girlfriend. "Well, I hope to attend your wedding soon," the person said after a moment of surprise."Sure," Lucas replied.Soon, the word spread around the venue that the woman beside Lucas was his fiancée.The news wasn't entirely surprising. Over the past year, there had been rumors about Lucas’s missing girlfriend, an

Since Christine was just an outsider and a stranger, Coco had no intention of explaining anything to her."I don't see why I need to explain anything to you," she said coldly."You must be feeling guilty. If there's nothing to hide, why won’t you share it with us?""Exactly!"The two companions sneered at Coco.Christine added, "You know, it's not just us who are curious. When Mr. Gomez introduces you to the media, many people will be curious about you. Even though Mr. Gomez isn't in the entertainment industry, the news media and the public pay a lot of attention to him. Since you're his fiancée, clearing up the details of your disappearance early on would prevent unnecessary rumors and attacks.""There's no need for you to worry about that, Ms. Spears." Coco, tired of their harassment, turned to leave and find Lucas.Just as she was about to walk away, one of Christine's companions deliberately stuck out her foot, tripping Coco.Thud!Coco crashed to the ground.The woman sm

"Lucas!" she exclaimed with concern, but her worry was not for herself – it was for him. "I'll be done in a moment. It won't take long!" he assured her, then walked towards Christine and her friends.The trio were happy to see Lucas approach them. "What's your name?" Lucas asked Christine with a cold expression.Christine was both scared and excited. She was scared of the look in Lucas' eyes, but she was excited because she saw this as an opportunity to get closer to Lucas. Now that he had asked for her name, she could extend the conversation!"My name is Christine Spears. My father is Mark Spears, the CEO of the Spears Group. I've always admired you, Mr. Gomez. You're the reason I got into the entertainment business," she explained."The Spears Family?" Lucas muttered under his breath, then swiftly raised his hand and slapped Christine without hesitation. The slap was so strong that it made her lose her balance. Blood trickled from the corner of her mouth.Fortunately, th

She chuckled, realizing he had been overthinking even more than she had. "Okay, got it. I promise I won't go back on my word about marrying you, and I won't give up on you either!" she declared. "Ever!"He was taken aback. The nervousness in his eyes turned to shock, then softened into a gentle warmth. "Ever? Do you really mean it?""Why not?" She met his gaze. "Lucas, do you know how much I like you, how much I love you? You're afraid, but I'm anxious too. In the past, I was worried that you wouldn’t like me. After that, I feared that the woman you loved the most was still Serenity. Now, I’m worried that we’ll argue a lot in the future, I’m worried that reality might wear down your love for me, I’m worried that I can't get used to your world..."She murmured, "Lucas, I'm afraid too. But I still want to be with you. I want to fight for our future together. So while you ask me to not give up on you, I hope you won’t give up on me either. No matter what happens, please don’t give up
