Chapter 75
“Alita, if you snap my hand and I be disabled, you have to take responsibility for me for a
lifetime. I’ll cling to you and never let go. Samuel didn’t release his hand. Instead, he smiled softly.
Alita didn’t return the smile, her face bing even colder. “Why are you following me? I have no
connection with the Lewis family anymore, and the same goes for you. From now on we are
strangers. Take your 20% of the shares and be a good superior. Don’t bother me again, okay?”
“No.” Facing her indifference, he shook his head gently, his sinile bing even warmer,
“Then, what do you want?” Alita was truly afraid of him.
“Let mee in and have a seat.” Samuel took advantage of Alita’s momentary rxation to push
the door open a bit more and squeeze himself inside.
Seeing hime in. Alita panicked and pushed him back. “You can’te in. Get out, get out!”
Dealing with such a dangerous character in the middle of the night was putting herself in danger.
Samuel held both of her hands, lifted her horizontally, and carried her into the room, cing her on
the bed.
“What are you doing? Samuel, you can’t do this. Go away!” Alita struggled, quickly jumping off the
bed and retreating to the bedside. She tensed up, staying vignt, and pointed the TV remote at him
as a weapon to keep him at a distance.
“I never said I wanted to do anything inappropriate. I just wanted to sit with you. Alita, it seems that
you’re the one with impure thoughts, Samuel teased her. Seeing she was so wary of him, he felt
bitterness in his heart.
Alita remained cautious as Samuel was too cuining. He appeared calm now but might act recklessly
in the next moment. “How long do you n to stay here? I want to sleep Ahta stepped back further,
putting down the remote control, but her fingers were still tightly clenched.
Samuel casually propped his hands on the bed, asking nonchntly, “Any ns for the future?”
“I haven’t thought about it. Alita replied stiffly, thinking that even if she had made up her mind, she
wouldn’t tell him.
“Is there any ce you’d like to go? Samuel believed that she genuinely hadn’t decided yet, or she
wouldn’t have chose stay in such a small hotel.
Alita said impatiently, “No!”
“How about…” Samuel looked at her with a smile. “Come with me to Ocraolia? It’s a romantic city.
We can buy a piece of 1. in the south, build a house, nt flowers and trees around it, and enjoy
the free air and endless leisure time. What do you think? It sounds great, doesn’t it?”
His
s eyes were filled with anticipation for her response.
Alita looked at him and smiled coldly. “Not interested. Since I’ve left the Lewis family and severed
ties with them, I won’t have any dealings with anyone from the Lewis family. How could I start
something with you right after ending my rtionslup with Jaydon?”
“Are you afraid of being known? Don’t worry, no one will find out.” He assured.
“Even if no one would know, I won’t be with you because you and even more terrifying than Jaydon.
Most importantly, I don’t have those feelings for you. So, Samuel, leave, My life is mine to control,
and I don’t want any interference. I would find it very repulsive,” Alita said, denying him any hope or
fantasy.
She had gone through a lot to break free from the Lewis family and would never entangle herself
with them again.
Samuel sighed softly. “Is this how you feel about me? Alita, I like you, do you know that?” He
believed that she was well aware of his feelings.
Alita didn’t evade the topic. “I know, and I appreciate your liking
“Then, do you think a man would easily let go of the woman he likes? Even if you don’t go to
Ocraolia with me, I will continue to follow you until you stay in my arms. Samuel confessed his
feelings for her because now she was single, and he felt entitled to pursue her.
“That day will nevere. In the future, I might get married and have children again, but the man
won’t be you. Let me put it this way. I want to find a man who doesn’t know about my past He
doesn’t have to be handsome or wealthy, but he must radiate warmth from within to gently
apany me through the years, Alita said with a smile, expressing her aspirations,
Samuel’s gaze deepened, and he leaned in closer. “Why can’t that man be me? Am I not warm
enough?”
Alita’s smile didn’t fade, but it turned into a mocking one. “I dont know, but under the sunshine, the
soul should be transparent, and you, there’s just too much darkness,”
cept me. Can’t you?” He leaned in even closer, his
“Alita, I do have sunshine, but I only let it shine for you. Please try to ept voice lower, as if about
to kiss her.
“No, you can’t” Alita pushed him away. “I have no interest in discussing rtionships right now.”
The wounds she received from Jaydon were not easy to heal, and love was something she dared
not touch again.
“It’s okay. I can wait. After all, I’ve waited for many years. If you ever want to love again, choose me.
Because only I will sincerely treat you well” Samuel’s eyes were filled with intense emotions, the
love he had kept suppressed for her all these years.
Alita was intimidated by his intensity, so she jumped off the bed and opened the door. “Please
leave, I need to sleep.”
Samuel stood up and walked to the door. “Darling, I’m staying next door. Don’t think about sneaking
out in the middle of the night. I have magic. No matter where you escape to, I’ll find you.”
“I don’t need to escape. You have the right to like me, and I have the right not to like you. Get out.”
Alita pushed him out with frustration and forcefully closed the door.
Samuel leaned against the closed door, lifted his head slightly, and smiled with a touch of
loneliness. She closed the door to her heart, rejecting him outside..
Alita also leaned against the door and exhaled deeply, feeling relieved. What a close call!
After lying down, she found it more difficult to fall asleep. The thought of Samuel entangling her in
this way made her feel terrified. She didn’t want to live a life with one less Jaydon but an added
Samuel. She quickly packed her luggage, thinking she had to try to escape, whether sessful or
not.
Opening the door, she tiptoed outside, carefully observing her surroundings as she headed toward
the stairs.
When Alita reached the ground floor, the receptionist looked half-asleep, and the electric fan
continued to rotate. The electronic clock on the wall ticked away. Alita quietly passed by the front
desk, pushed open the door, and stepped outside,
She walked a considerable distance before feeling safe enough to fully rx her body. Sweat
covered her forehead and body.
Wiping it off casuaily, Alita looked back at the distant hotel with a smug smile. She thought, ‘Samuel,
you’re not as formidable as I thought. You scared me, making me believe you had deployed heavy
forces outside!
Inside the hotel, Samuely on the bed. He smiled as he thought Silly girl, did you think I wouldn’t
know you escaped? No Hatter how vast the world is, it’s all within the palm of my hand.
One week had passed. Every night, Jaydon struggled to fall asleep, and the nights seemed
endless, as if the day would nevere. He missed Alita intensely. Her cold voice, fierce demeanor
when they argued, everything about her, both the good and the bad. He was going crazy with the
longing.
In the middle of the night, Jaydon jumped out of bed and began searching his room, hoping to find
something important she might have left behind. He wanted an excuse to bring her back.
The entire bedroom was turned upside down, and her wardrobe was emptied. At the bottom of the
wardrobe, he discovered a hidden photograph Excitement flooded him as he picked it up, realizing it
was a picture of them together. However, it had been torn in the middle and then carefully patched
When was this photo taken? Why couldn’t he remember? Alita looked so radiant in the picture,
smiling brightly, while he appeared emotionless. His hand gently touched her smiling face. When did
she have such a radiant smile? Why hadn’t he noticed it before?
Sitting on the ground, Jaydon stared at her smile and felt a dull pain in his chest.
He was truly on the verge of losing his sanity. Alita, you heartless girl
At three in the morning, Jaydon couldn’t take it anymore. He called Alita, but after a few rings, she
hung up. Reluctantly, he called again, but her phone was switched off.
Like a fool, he repeated the process several times before reluctantly putting down his phone.
“What a heartless woman. I just wanted to call her to pick up her clothes. If she doesn’t want to, so
be it,” Jaydon muttered to himself in the empty room. His green eyes were filled with sadness, but
he still tried to justify himself.
In the early morning. Annabel sobbed as she entered Jaydon’s room. Then, she was met with a
scene of chaos, as if a thief had ransacked the ce.
She asked, “Jaydon, are you there?”
Jaydon emerged from the dressing room, still inst night’s sleepwear, looking disheveled. Seeing
his sister’s swollen eyes from crying, he asked in confusion, “What’s wrong with you?”
Annabel’s nose tingled, and she threw herself into her brother’s arms. Jaydon, Kim wants to annul
our engagement. He… he said he doesn’t love me anymore. She sobbed and continued, “Jaydon, I
don’t want to annul the engagement. I like him. Can you help me keep him? He’s packing his bags
right now. He’s leaving
“Stop crying” Jaydonforted his sister by patting her head. He thought, ‘Fool, that guy never
loved you. He was just using you to get close to Alita. Alita, are you nning to live a happy life with
your lover now?”
Jaydon clenched his fists and stormed toward Annabel’s room.
Kim, already finished packing, was prepared to leave. When he saw Jaydon, he smirked slightly.
“Mr. Lewis, thanks for the hospitality during these days at the Lewis family”
Annabel rushed sato the room: grabbing Kim’s hand Darling, don’t leave. I’ll change whatever is
wrong with me. Please don’t go
“Although I appreciate your kindness, I can’t continue deceiving myself. You’ll find someone better
than me in the future.” Kim gently pulled his hand away from her. Leaving a weekter han nned
was already his greatest kindness. There was nothing left for him to stay for. He needed to find the
girl in his heart and start anew with her.
Jaydon charged forward, grabbing Kim by the cor. “Do you know where she is?”
