Cosset You Forever novel Chapter 37

"I will come back to you next month for I am busy this month." Instead, he waited for three months.

"Harry, I am just meeting with a director. I will be fine." She turned a deaf ear to his persuasion. Consequently, she was drugged by the director. Even though the Mo family had swayed the final verdict and sentenced the director to death, what had happened would never be changed.

"Harry, this award ceremony means a lot to me. I must be present!" However, she left for a long time, during which time she was even caught on camera hugging with other male celebrities.

...

These were all because of her so-called dream. Well, her dream had come true. She had become an international super star. But wasn't she even busier than before?

Feeling agitated, Harry opened a bottle of liquor and drank slowly.

Lola finally decided to find Harry, as it was better to talk with him face to face.

But when she opened the door of the study, she was greeted by pungent smells of liquor and cigarette. All the windows in the room were closed and the light was dusky.

The smoke-filled room made Lola lightly cough several times. Harry was still seated on the sofa, drinking white liquor.

"Harry, what are you doing?" Lola had never seen Harry so down with grief.

He cast a cold glance at her with his bloodshot eyes, which made Lola feel somewhat hurt.

"Stop drinking. Go take a shower!" She grabbed the bottle from his hand and placed it on the desk. Then she tried to take the cigarette in his mouth, but he managed to shun away with a sudden turn of his head.

Lola was choked to tears when he blew a smoke ring onto her face.

"Harry, what are you doing. Cough..." Harry stubbed out the cigarette and leaned on the sofa with his eyes closed.

Lola did not know what to do, but to urge him, "Shower!" She pulled him with great efforts, but to no avail. Instead, by only a gentle pull, Harry drew her into his arms.

"Harry..."

"Hush... Don't say anything. Stay in my arms for a while." Hearing that, Lola did not move any more. Harry hugged the woman in his arms closely, smelling her unique aroma and telling himself that this woman, unlike that woman, would always be here for him, and that Lola belonged to him.

He must have had his share of heartbreaking stories. Even though he remained silent, his sadness was not lost on her. Was it because of that woman?...

Sitting on Harry's legs, Lola put her hands around his neck tenderly. They both needed a hug and a shoulder to rest on. Somewhere along the way, she had gradually stopped putting him off, and had instead become more and more dependent on him. Perhaps, she had never resisted, but had only become more and more dependent on him.

Lola filled the bathtub with water. After a bath, Harry hugged her on the bed. That night, he was very gentle, leaving her with an impression that she was not the one Harry had in mind when he was sleeping with her...

The next day, Harry resumed his usual cold look, as if what happened that night was only illusion. However, Lola had woken up to the fact that she was not the only woman in Harry's heart...

She still went to the SL company as Harry had suggested. Joey gave her several choices of different positions, and she finally chose to apply for the Facial Mask Research and Development Department to be an assistant formulator.

She dithered over her choice as it was made purely out of interest. But it didn't matter what position she chose, for it would only be a stepping stone for her.

After she had had her revenge and found her father, she must join an entertainment company, or her efforts paid all these years would be in vain.

The formulator she worked with was an experienced woman called Heidi An, who was in her forties. As a veteran, Heidi had no other defects, except being a bit arrogant.

On the first day of work, after learning the ropes about the Research and Development Department, Lola spent the rest of the day in data checking and printing.
