Soon enough, the petals on the bed were mashed.

The night went on deeper and deeper. The blessings that showed up on the big screen in the distance were replaced in five hours and twenty-one minutes.

And it was said that it took thousands or tens of thousands of dollars to rent that big screen just for a seconds' time. It would have cost a fortune to rent it for that long, for five hours and twenty-one minutes. Oh My God... Lola was so happy.

In the WeChat group of SL, all of her colleagues were so excited. Lola! They guessed that Miss Newman must be challenged by another suitor.

Their goddess was so praised and loved that she got many gifts and love confessions on her birthday! But these gifts and confessions all cost a lot, and it didn't took long for people to start to suspect that her suitors included Thomas and Harry.

From that moment on, Lola had become a living legend of the SL Group.

The following day, Harry carried Lola into the car and sent her to the company's underground parking lot. Lola spoke the same words as she always did, "I'll go up first, wait here for a second."

However, after Lola dragged her jelly legs back to the office, Harry was still sitting and smoking in the car.

Then he started his car and drove back to Crescent Spring.

Lola hosted the morning conference of the day absent-mindedly. The empty seat next to her made her feel that something bad might have happened.

Did he arrive? Why wasn't he there?

Back at her office, Lola checked her e-mail and suddenly collapsed.

Although she had well prepared for this news, her heart still sank heavy to the bottom of the sea floor. She couldn't help crying when she read that the company officially nominated her today as the acting CEO of the company.

Her official nomination meant that he would leave.

And last night was actually their final night. She heard him whisper in her ears: "Lola, forget me!"

She tightly held in her right hand the watch sent by him and remembered his love from last night. How could she ever forget him! His every movement attracted her in a fatalistic way.

Were they done because of Yolanda?

And in that moment, she wished that Yolanda would disappear from the world!


...

As he heard the crying in the office, Joey paused.

His boss would board on a plane to leave tomorrow morning, so he was now handing over the work.

He came to tell Lola of his boss's flight. Hearing her sob like that he bet that a proud woman like Lola was certainly not reluctant to be seen weak by others. He decided not to disturb her.

Joey sighed, put his hand down, which was just about to knock on the door, and left.

When Joey told Harry about this event in his study at Crescent Spring, Harry was standing by the window, admiring the dark night sky, and smoking a cigarette.

He frowned and his face was filled with a rare, distressed expression of his.

The only woman he felt sorry for in his whole life was her.

And every time he hugged her to sleep, Lola always gently stuck in his arms.

She wasn't as stubborn, arrogant and bad-tempered as she seemed to be... She turned out to be soft and gentle.

And he certainly knew for sure that she wouldn't dare behave like that in front of someone she did not love.

All in all, at the end of the day, he broke her heart.

But in comparison with Yolanda, he loved Lola much more.

He loved her so much that he could easily get excited just at the mere sight of her.

However, he had to give up on her, the only one he truly loved.

Then he remembered Nicole, the cute little girl.

Uncle won't be able to play with you anymore in the future.

It was midnight.

Jordan called Lola again and again but her phone was power off. He got worried with a grim sense of foreboding.

Although he was hesitant for a moment, in the end he called Harry.

"Jordan." Harry spoke with a hoarse voice, and seemed to be tired and sad, too.

"Is Lola with you?" He hoped that they were together. Then he could be relieved.

He replied instantly: "No, I'm working from home."

Jordan hung up on him and became more and more nervous.

Lola wouldn't leave home without leaving a word. Even if it were that she wouldn't be coming back, she would've definitely informed her family beforehand of her leave.

Jordan then called Joseph, who seemed to be in a pub, again. He struggled in asking him if Lola had got in touch with him, but Joseph said no.

Lola, who had never been late for work, didn't show up the following day either.

That was when everyone realized that Lola had disappeared...

Harry and Joey packed their things and were about to leave for the airport to fly to Uthana.

In the VIP waiting room at the airport.
