    Chapter 377


    Suddenly, a pair of beautiful lips with no lipstick applied shed through his mind. Those rosy pink lips


    had a natural appearance, and he felt it was the most suitable color.


    “Wipe it off,” said Lucas.


    “Huh?” His words were so sudden that Aria failed to react in time.


    “I said, wipe off your lipstick ”


    Aria was left dumbfounded. They were on the way to the banquet. She had deliberately dressed up


    today because of the event.


    If she removed her lipstick, her makeup would be ruined. Not only would she not stand out from the


    rest, but she was afraid that others might startughing at her.


    “Now? But we’re almost there.”


    “Now,” interrupted Lucas impatiently.


    Aria noticed the displeasure in his gaze, but she didn’t want to risk angering him. She bit her lip as she


    pulled out a napkin. which she used to wipe off her lipstick.


    Lucas then pulled out a silver bracelet from his pocket. He nced down at it with unprecedentedly


    gentle eyes while stroking it with his fingertips, as if it were his lover.


    At the very least, he had never looked at Aria in such a way before. As she wiped off her lipstick, Aria


    nced at him through her makeup mirror and noticed his gaze. She couldn’t help but feel a sense of


    envy.


    Only now did she understand what the bracelet represented. She recognized that it was the same


    bracelet found on the little girl in Lucas‘ painting

    Did that bracelet really belong to a little girl? There were rumors in the showbiz industry that Lucas had


    been looking for someone for years. It was said that whoever tracked down that person would stand to


    receive rewards that wouldst more than a lifetime.


    She initially thought it was just a rumor. After all, she knew just how many baseless theories were


    floating around the showbiz industry.


    However, it seems that they weren’t lying about this.


    Lucas must be searching for that girl in his painting! Although Aria had never asked him about it, she


    had seen that painting with her own eyes. After all, she had snuck into his studio on her own ord


    Something told her this was the truth: Lucas was searching for that little girl. More than that, she had a


    feeling that Serenity might actually turn out to be the little girl. Both she and the girl in the painting


    shared striking simrities, especially when Serenity was still a young girl. What’s more, in a picture


    taken many years ago, Serenity wore a simr–looking floral skirt as the girl in the painting.


    Could this all really be just a coincidence?


    If Serenity


    away!?


    was I


    really the person Lucas was looking for, then…. didn’t that mean everything she had right now would


    be taken


    If that was the case, Aria could not ept this. She had to stop Lucas from developing such suspicion


    at all costs!


    When Jackson arrived home, he was informed by a servant that Serenity had also returned. However,


    her room was pitch ck when he went to her room.
