Eva Nightingale felt somewhat disappointed; who knew she would receive a call from Jasmine Green at that moment.

"Miss, the Crown Prince has returned to the villa."

"Alright, I got it!" Hanging up the phone, Eva in the car turned the car around and drove back to the villa in the wealthy district.

She drove a flashy red sports car, all because today she was in a hurry to find him, so she randomly picked a sports car from the garage, speeding all the way like she was flying a plane.

Later, she drove to meet Liam Coldwell, arranging an evening dinner date. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Actually, she was quite skilled at driving, maybe not on par with the world’s No.1 racer, but not far off either.

Initially, she enjoyed racing around in her flashy sports car, but after a while got bored and hadn’t touched any of the cars in the garage in a long time.

Many were bought by Eliana Beckett, and Sebastian Yansford; regardless of whether she liked them or not, every year Sebastian would gift her a limited edition custom sports car, each unique.

As soon as she arrived and parked, Lucas Knight gently pulled back the vintage curtains on the second floor, gazing deeply outside.

He happened to catch her getting out of the car.

He had a cigarette between his fingers. Today, he had visited Harry North, as well as the subordinates at the Presidential Mansion of the Sovereign Empire; the Minister of Affairs was all present, making a big fuss to ask him to return.

Lucas Knight simply arranged the matters and declined, with no intention of returning just yet.

In over three years, his position had already been stabilized.

In those three years, he had encompassed Emperor Grand Group, expanding its industries to unimaginable heights.

Before meeting Eva Nightingale, he was such a proud, noble, and abstinent man; but after meeting her, every bit of his image had completely collapsed.

With only half a cigarette left, Eva had already come upstairs, charging straight at him: "Lucas Knight, where have you been?!"

"You made me search for so long, you know?"

He had snake venom in his body; although it wasn’t an issue now, the venom had long entered his bloodstream, making his life a living hell. Not to exaggerate, but there were very few in this world who could cure that poison. She didn’t really want his life, she just wanted him to be scared and stay away.

But who knew he would actually come looking for her!

"Hmm?"

Hearing her anxious words, Lucas Knight furrowed his brows. Was she really concerned about him? Yeah, right. If she truly cared, she wouldn’t have been so heavy-handed, directly injecting him with venom. He felt like dying every day and night with the burning, bone-piercing pain.

"Lucas... Emperor Lucas... where did you go?" She suddenly hugged him, her voice soft, "I’ve been looking for you for so long, you know?"

"..." He didn’t explain, nor did he intend to, appearing much colder than usual, exuding an aura of complete abstinence.

"Oh, by the way, I have a dinner to attend tonight."

Lucas Knight paused for a moment and agreed, "Come back early." Clearly, he intended to punish her by pretending to lose his memory as a way of making her feel the pain she inflicted on him. But who knew, had he ever hurt her? Every time he could, he wanted to cradle her close to his heart.

His heart was uncontrollable, unable to get angry with her at all.

"Hmm..."

"Emperor Lucas..."

She clung to his waist affectionately, taking advantage of his distraction to slip her fair hand under his shirt.
