Chapter 125


    The next morning. Lucian woke up with headache. He sat up, pressing his hand against his stomach.


    The pain eased a bit, but some difort lingered


    He looked around recognizing his home in Magnolia Gandens.


    He remembered getting sloshedst night, but beyond that, everything was a blur


    Just then, his skan Mmute bounded over, barking twice.


    “Who brought me homest night? Lucian asked


    Lucky, being the good boy he was, sat by the bed, chewing his tail.


    “Have you seen thai person before?” Lucian got up, checking out his clothes. He was still in his white


    shirt and ck suit pants fromst night, which were now wrinkled.


    Lucky barked once, looking up at him.


    Lucian chuckled, getting up to head to the bathroom. After a shower, he wrapped himself in a towel, his


    hair still dripping wet.


    He popped a couple of stomach pills, and dialed Shawn on his phone, asking “Did you bring me home


    last night?”


    The answer from the other end was a no.


    A puzzled look crossed Lucian’s face.


    Lucky was usually a temperamental and big dog, paying no mind to anyone but a few familiar faces. If


    any strangers showed up at Magnolia Gardens, Lucky would chase

    them off in a heartbeat


    Suddenly, Lucian noticed Lucky chewing on something.


    “What are you eating” Lucian walked over to ask.


    He pulled an earring out of Lucky’s mouth.


    It was a hexagram earring


    Under the sunlight, the earring sparkled


    Lucian remembered getting hammered at the Red Jack Clubst night and then drawing a nk.


    Whose earring was this?


    A delicate and beautiful face shed across Lucian’s mind.


    Allison had lost an earring that Dr. Dn gave her and had been out of sorts all morning


    If the earring really fell at Magnolia Gardens, how was she supposed to find it?


    As she pondered, Ashley, noticing her distracted state, asked, “What’s up? You’ve been zoned out all


    morning”


    “I lost an earring”


    “Then just buy a new pair”


    Allison’s eyes lit up. She could just buy a new pair.


    She quickly searched for the brand of the earring. Although it wasn’t a high–end brand, there was a


    counter at Ster Emporium.


    She rushed to the Ster Emporium.


    “Hi, do you still have this earring in stock?”


    “The hexagram earrings are sold out.”


    “Are you going to restock them?”


    “Probably not. We’re about to introduce new models. You might want to check out other styles in the


    store, there’s a discount today if you buy two.”


    Allison nced at the time; it was around one in the afternoon.


    She hesitated, but eventually decided to head to Magnolia Gardens


    She was going to find Lucian and get her earring back.


    Magnolia Gardens was one of the top ten luxury vis in Northfield, boasting the best design and


    location.


    Allison thought she would be stopped by the security, but they let her in, saying, “You’re here to see Mr.


    Lindbergh, right?”


    Last night, Allison had driven Locian’s car back, and both security guards had seen her.


    Allison nodded


    With no further questions, they let her in.


    As Allison approached the vi, Lucky spotted her from behind the ck wrought iron gate and


    immediately wagged his fluffy tail in her direction.
