Chapter 4
The next morning, after seven years, I sat in Lance’s car again.
There was only one Rolls–Royce in the country. Anyone who saw it in Stamburg would give way.
Therefore, within half an hour, we arrived at the banquet hall..
about Lance’s love for her.
When we entered the banquet hall, Sandra enthusiastically took hold of
d my arm and excitedly shared with me al
“Zoe, Lance may seem distant to strangers, but he is very romantic.
“He would prepare surprises for me in various ways, take me to make wishes, and even buy sanitary pads for me.
“I’m lucky to be able to marry him, but sometimes I feel like he is hiding something in his heart.
“Zoe, does he really like me?”
I stared at my former good friend and remembered the words she said to me seven years ago, “Zoe, Lance doesn’t like you. You should let go of him. You’re causing him trouble by acting this way.
“It the fact that you like Lance spreads out, it will be bad for your reputation.”
At that time, I thought she was doing it for my good.
I didn’t realize it until I saw their official engagement announcement.
She probably had feelings for Lance for a long time.
I intended to question her betrayal just now.
But now, I didn’t want to ask anything.
Because it was not important anymore.
“Lance has never been so concerned about anyone before,” I said, pulling out a smile.
“You low that he had never been in a relationship before and had spent seven years in a temple. You are his first love.”
There was a hint of surprise in Sandra’s eyes, but it quickly returned to normal. She shyly said, “With you vouching for him, I can rest assured and marry
him.”
At this moment, Lance walked over and his hand naturally landed on Sandra’s waist. His tone was gentle, “What are you talking about? Why are you smiling so happily?”
Sandra leaned against his chest and smiled, “We were talking about our wedding
“By the way, Zoe, what I want the most today is your blessing Can you bless me and Lance?”
She handed me a glass of red wine as she spolo
I reached out and took it, then raised it towards them, saying, “I wish you a happy marriage and a great life.”
After saying that, I drank it all in one gulp.
Just as the wine entered the throat, a sudden intense pain came over.
I felt as if my organs were burning
I quickly spit
Then I redid that I
I couldn’t eat the food and drink of this world anymore.
“Zoe, what do you mean? Are you insincerely wishing us well?
Lance coldly reprimanded me, making me break out in a cold sweat, and my face turned even paler. “I wasn’t…”
“Since so, then bless us one more time,”
His words were like arrows piercing through my heart. The pain made me numb.
I took a deep breath and poured myself another glass of wine.

Enduring the intense burning pain, I drank it all in one gulp
The burning sensation spread from my throat to my stomach.
I couldn’t tell if my stomach hurt more or my heart hurt more.
It was okay.
The clear pain could make me let him go.
I was in so much pain that I could only bend over to alleviate it.
Just at this moment, Lance’s assistant rushed over with an anxious look on his face. He held a phone in his hand and said, “Mr. Austin, it’s a call from the Border Defense Bureau.”
I suddenly sat up,
Lance reached out and took the phone.
I held my breath, wondering if the news of my death reached Lance so quickly,
