Lola curled up at the back seat for half an hour before she went back to the driver's seat. As soon as
she got comfortable in the seat, she drove away quickly.
She felt all kinds of pain everywhere on her body. That monster was so cruel!
She was so much in pain...
She finally arrived home and bumped into Lillian who was walking downstairs to fetch some water.
Lillian curiously looked at Lola. She saw that her face was pale and sorrowful.
"What's the matter, sister? What happened?" She put down her glass and embraced Lola.
Lola waved her hand immediately and reassured her, "I'm okay. I will go the upstairs. I'm just kind of
tired." She felt that her ears was swollen because of his bite. She didn't want it to be noticed by
anyone.
So she tried her best to hide it and then went upstairs.
Looking at her back, Lillian felt that Lola was acting very strange. She asked, "Sister, did your leg ache
again? You shouldn't exert too much weight on it." She called out to Lola, who was already in the
middle of the stairs.
Lola was moved by her concern. She turned her head and replied, "I'm okay. I just went to see Nicole...
I was probably a little excited and emotional." Lillian understood why she was like this when she heard
about Nicole.
She just nodded and answered, "Then have a good rest." The poor mother and daughter... they missed
each other so much but could not see each other. She has pestered Harry about this matter. She
suddenly felt so guilty.
Watching Lola disappear into the hall, Lillian decided in her mind that she would always take care of
her in the future.
But Lola was sleepless and restless that night. She was troubled and anxious as to whether she could
see Nicole tomorrow or not. If she went to see Nicole, she would be caught up again with Harry.
Which she didn't want. She was growing tired of that man... She really didn't want this. She thought that
Harry has gone too far this time.
A few years ago, the lack of faith and trust between them led to the divorce. Then she left.
Four years later after the divorce, it was still because of his lack of trust that led to her ruined wedding
day.
Right there and then, she decided not to go to see Nicole, because she can't see Harry anymore.
But Nicole needed to see her real mother too. How can she get rid of Harry?
On the early morning the next day, Lola went to the hospital first to get some medicine. Then, she went
to her coffee shop.
The store has already started decorating the interior. She has hired a professional designer to create
the blueprint for the refined decoration.
Nicole called her again that day. But she made an excuse that she could not make it to see her. It really
broke her heart that her voice trembled a bit.
Nicole seemed very angry and disappointed. She immediately hung up the phone after hearing it.
Lola sat there looking at her cellphone, thinking deeply.
Was she too selfish? In order to avoid seeing Harry, she gave up the chance of seeing her daughter.
A month went by in mere sadness.
The store has finished the decoration process, and Lola named it LN.
The meaning was very clear: Lola and Nicole. Her daughter would always be her inspiration in running
the business.
The weather was very fine on the opening day. She simply put several flower baskets at the door and
declared it open.
She hired several young girls and boys as crew. They were all very nice and hardworking. She felt so
satisfied.
Joshua heard about the news that Lola has opened her own coffee shop. He took his wife to the store
and advertised it in the company.
But only a few people came. Because everyone has heard the news about the scandal that Lola killed
the mother of her fiance, most people hesitated to support Lola.
They all tried to avoid being connected with her. But Lola didn't mind at all. She has foreseen this
already.
In the SL Group, C Country
Harry sat in the chair with cigarette in his hand while he listened to Joey's update. "Lola opened a
coffee store in A Country. Her store seemed to be gathering popularity... Joey wiped the sweat on his
forehead.
He wondered why these two loving people would end up like this. They were just about to get married
some time ago.
Harry kept silent after hearing the news. He lit another cigarette and ordered, "Open a new coffee store
just opposite hers with lower price and better decorations."
...
Joey looked at his boss, feeling puzzled. Was he going to corner Lola to defeat?
"Didn't you hear what I said? I'm serious about this." He was becoming a little furious. He coldly looked
at Joey who was still in a daze.
Joey nodded, and obediently went out of the office without saying anything more. Harry has his bad
temper again just like he was after Lola left D City.
But this time, he became even more irritable and unreasonable.
To open another coffee store just in across Lola's coffee store? Rich and rash! What a man!
In the LN Coffee Shop
Lola sat quietly on a couch in the corner of the store. She held the computer in her arms, looked at the
park behind the store and thought about the sales of the store yesterday.
Many guests who came into this store would see a beautiful woman sitting on the cacolet at the corner
of the store.
They noticed that Lola would just normally sit there for hours in silence, only occasionally drinking a
cup of coffee or milk tea.
They later knew that the woman was the boss of the store.
One day, Lola went to the store as usual. She noticed that the place across her store was under
construction.
But she didn't pay any attention to it and just went inside her shop.
The employees at the store were busy doing the cleaning. Seeing that Lola has come, the cashier told
her, "Miss Li, someone is waiting for you over there."
Lola looked at the place where the cashier pointed at. In the seat by the window, there was a man
smiling at her.
Although the face was half covered by the sunglasses he was wearing, she recognized him on just first
sight.
Lola went over and sat in his opposite seat and asked, "When did you come back?"
Her lips colored with lip gloss were slightly pursed. It was shining brightly under the sunshine.
A month ago, she called him once to tell him her plans and ideas.
She didn't want to go anywhere. She decided to open a coffee store in A Country and led a peaceful
life here.
Thomas Herren smiled, "I arrived yesterday. I went to the old house first." Then he sipped the coffee
and made a compliment, "This freshly brewed coffee is really good!"
She laughed softly. "When do you plan to leave? How about having lunch together?"
"It's my pleasure. I will leave now. Do you want to take a walk with me?" It was a rare opportunity for
Thomas Herren to have time to relax and he didn't want to pass the chance by.
They walked out the coffee shop together and they went inside Herren's car.
Just across the store, a foreman was taking photos of the half finished facade room from different
angles. He would send them to the boss later.
He captured a picture of a woman getting on the car of a man by chance. He thought of deleting it later.
Then he took several more photos of the renovating store, and totally forgot about deleting the
unrelated picture.
He directly sent the pictures to Joey, who simply glanced over the first few pictures and then sent them
to Harry.
Harry examined the pictures closely from the beginning to the end. When it came to the last picture, his
hands immediately froze.
The picture captured the majestic early spring, and a charming woman in pink coat and white trousers
was going inside the a man's Benz.
Beside the Benz stood Thomas Herren in a casual suit. The sunglasses failed to cover his gentle and
sweet gaze at the woman.
He tightened his grip on the mouse of the computer, feeling so unhappy.
Lola wanted to be with Thomas Herren?
She was dreaming!
Had she truly loved him when they were together before?
If she really loved him, why was she so ignorant of him?
At the Cinema
Lola looked at the cinema front, then stared at the man beside her.
Thomas Herren nodded in approval and said, "Wait for me here. I'm going to buy the tickets."
Then he walked to the ticket counter.
Looking at his back, Lola lowered her head and thought about something. She was really caught in a
dilemma. She didn't know what to feel anymore.
