Chapter 315


    The next day, I continued my search for the ring with a sense of feeling that I would find it very soon.


    Unfortunately, I found nothing.


    I was very upset and didn’t want to do anything else for the day. Lucas visited me with some chicken


    soup, but it didn’t help me cheer up. Apparently, his servant made extras so he decided to share it with


    me as it was good for health. Subsequently, he began to cough as soon as he finished his sentence.


    I rested my chin on my hand and leaned against the wheelchair. “Why are you always sick? We met at


    the hospital thest time and now you’re here, recuperating.” I asked in concern.


    “Yeah, I’ve been sick since young and spend most of my time in a hospital. My dad had done a lot to


    keep me alive and well. Hence, I’m able to walk freely now. I wasn’t able to do so a few years back. I


    would be locked up in the house if he found out that I was out.” Lucas coughed as he tried to finish his


    words.


    I wondered why there would be tons of scandal about him if he spent most of his time in the hospital.


    He was someone who couldn’t leave the house with such a health condition. Therefore, the scandals


    didn’t add up. It’d only make sense if he was bullied by others judging from his health condition.


    “I guess you must have pissed off someone in the media industry.” I firmly believed that there must be


    a mastermind behind all this. For example, there were rumors about me when I was a kid. I was


    described as a vicious and ruthless woman who bullied my sister.


    Nheless, I had Yvette and a cousin sister who stayed in my house. Lucas was an only child. So


    how did end up in such a mess?

    “I guess so. Iughed the entire day when I heard the news that I was dating a female celebrity and


    even got her killed. I was down with a high fever and was on drips. I was so weak that I couldn’t even


    move a finger. Thus, how could I mess with a celebrity at that time? Yet, I was grateful to have a


    healthy body.”


    Lucas fed me a spoonful of chicken soup. But, I was too embarrassed to be fed by a man. So, I turned


    my head away and said softly, “Why don’t you ce the soup on the table? I’ll have the soup once


    Jenny returns.”


    “Come on, what’s wrong with me helping you out as a big brother. Besides, I don’t meet someone I


    know in a foreign town like this.” he insisted.


    I had to drink the soup in the end as I failed to persuade him to do as I say. The soup tasted very weird


    and I didn’t enjoy it. ording to Lucas, there were a bunch of medicinal herbs added to the mixture. I


    wondered if he did this on purpose to get back at me for dumping him.


    “So, tell me, what does the Goldstein family residence look like? Is it simr to the Lane family? The


    Lane family residence was like a European-style castle. It’s breathtaking, they even have a little cruise


    situated by theke. Although it was a man-madeke, they bought a cruise ship to enjoy the scenery


    by theke. Therefore, I’m very curious about what the Goldstein family residence looks like?”


    I remembered my dad told me that my mom left us for the eldest son of the Goldstein family.


    “Why’d you ask?” Lucas was surprised.


    I took a few mouthfuls of the soup andughed. “Oh, I’m just curious.”


    He is about the same age as me, so he probably wouldn’t know much. Yet, the eldest son of the


    Goldstein family was his uncle. Perhaps he’d know something I don’t?


    “Nah, it’s not as amazing as you’d think. Our house is an ancient artifact that was coated with the smell


    of rot. I hated staying in that house. Maybe it’s because I was trapped there most of my childhood. To


    add on, my dad would return home exhausted and would often throw tantrums…” Lucas paused.


    “You probably don’t know this but that cruise ship was bought during Christopher’s twenty-eighth


    birthday. Everyone was envious of his lifestyle and how he could live life as he pleased.


    I was surprised when he shifted the topic to Christopher and was not sure of what to say. Simrly, my


    mind drifted to the first time when I met him. He leaned against a couchzily with two beautiful women


    by his side. He twirled his wine ss and smiled at me wantonly.
