It was her first kiss, and his as well.

And that was how Adkins' first relationship ended. But he wasn't entirely sure how he felt about it. It wasn't hard to leave her.

Adkins’ future was so bright he had to wear shades. He wasn't just a rising star, he was a rocket. In less than five years, he'd gotten all his degrees and was now sitting pretty in his dream job.

By the time he was thirty-two, what Matthew said proved prophetic

Adkins was the youngest ruler of Deplua. What more could he dream of?

But Adkins wasn't the only one who had it all together. In the same month of the same year, Mollie stepped into her new job-a business lawyer. She was quite good at it, too. She had a silver tongue, and was more capable than many of her male colleagues. And she'd gotten engaged, too.

Adkins was still friends with her on WeChat, even after all this time.

So he saw when she posted a few photos of her and her fiance in her

WeChat Moments.

Her fiance was two years younger than her. According to her introduction in her WeChat Moments, they met each other litigating a lawsuit. After a few drinks and a few business dinners, they fell in love. Her fiance was also famous in Mipburg. She wanted to move for him, and get a job in the same city. That way she wouldn't have to miss him so much when he flew there.

Another month later, Mollie happened to catch a news report. She glued her eyes to the screen when she figured out who it was about. Adkins!

And he was set to marry a Lady from Deplua. The Lady was from a rich and powerful family, and she herself was rich, beautiful, gentle and kind.

A good man and a beautiful woman; a match made in heaven.

It was Late winter and he'd just finished up work around four in the morning. Driving home and ignoring the frost, he passed by the housing division where Mollie Lived.

Perhaps it was fate that Mollie was also burning the midnight oil. She was putting together a case against another company, and decided to give it up for the night. She found a nearby convenience store and grabbed a bucket of instant noodles. When she hit the gate to her subdivision, it was already half past four in the morning.

A very non-descript black car rolled up slowly to that same gate. She dragged her tired body out of the taxi. The Lawyer hardly spared the car a passing glance, intending to fall into a coma once she was safely inside her home. But then, she Looked again.

‘That's no ordinary car. It must cost millions, ' she thought to herself.

"So let me guess. It belongs to some CEO who thinks he's better than he actually is?'

She tidied up her long, messy hair and walked through the gate in her seven centimeter high heels

Then she heard the buzz of a car window being rolled down.

She had no intention of talking with the driver. She was too worn out.

She had seen a lot of luxury cars before. After all, there was no one else on the street at half past four in the morning. So when the car window suddenly rolled down, she couldn't help but cast a glance at the man sitting in the back seat.

And the sight that met her eyes made her forget herself for a moment, and the purse she was holding Landed smack on the pavement.

There was not only someone in the back seat, but that same guy was also the person engraved in her heart.

Their eyes met and she stopped in her tracks.
