She couldn't believe her eyes, beside her was a man, he was still fast asleep, his face was so perfect that it was captivating, his handsomeness impressed Ciara, his high nose and slightly wavy hair. The disturbance in sleep made her dumbfounded, moreover, he was completely naked on his body to reveal his toned abs and Ciara was naked, just like anyone else. Ciara realized that she had lost something last night and quickly snuck out of bed and ran away without leaving a trace. Today, she has a lecture in class, if she is late, she is afraid that the opportunity to get a scholarship for the next semester will not exist.

Right now, she couldn't cry anymore, her mind was completely blank. “Ciara, what have you done? Who is that man after all?” she asked herself. “Where did you go, why didn't I answer the phone when I called back? What's up?" - Emma saw Ciara's figure coming from the classroom and asked quickly. Ciara's mind was still reeling from last night's drunkenness, and in no mood to tell a story, she pushed Emma aside. "Hurry up to class, I have to prepare for the presentation, it won't be in time."

You will do well!” - Emma saw Ciara's stress and encouraged her.

You should remember that today's presentation will be the deciding factor for your score this semester. Try your best!" - After the lecturer finished speaking, he left the podium to make room for the students. After the groups finished their presentations fluently, Ciara regained her confidence and stepped onto the podium, their group being the last in the class. The group prepared this lesson for half a month and Ciara did not disappoint, she did a great job, she looked everyone in the eye and saw that they were listening to her, Ciara made them immerse in her art. and ancient architecture. Right! Ciara's major is architecture. But after finishing the lesson, the moment Ciara bowed to the lecturer and friends when she raised her head, a figure both familiar and strange passed through the classroom door right in front of her eyes for a few seconds and then disappeared, Ciara immediately recognize that handsome face, perhaps she will never forget the person who took her first night. Wasn't that the man who slept with her in the VIP room at the bar, why did he show up at her school?

"You're ready to go, get engaged to the lady of the Henry house." Dylan dejectedly sat down in a chair across from his grandfather. He is looking for a girl and has never wanted to get married, but his grandfather still urges him every day, and even promises to betrothed to the Henry family, which makes Dylan unsatisfied. “Eric! I don't want to get married yet, you know that." – Dylan is frank with his grandfather. "That you can't decide." – Eric is angry, he can't let Dylan like his father, marry a person who has no family and no airspace to go home. "Give me a year, until then I'll bring your granddaughter-in-law back to you." Dylan saw him angry and lowered his voice to negotiate. "The one I want is the lady of the Henry family, only she is worthy to be my granddaughter-in-law," Eric confirmed. "Then give me a year, a year from now I'll be engaged to her." – Dylan has no choice but to buy time. Grandpa was a little hesitant but finally agreed, he got up and went back to the break room leaving Dylan with complicated thoughts. "Have you heard from her yet?" Dylan leaned back in his chair, fingers rubbing his temples tiredly. “I tried to find her, heard that she is an orphan at the Semans orphanage but now children of her age have all left there and are looking for their own lives, I don't know her. Where did you go?" – the bodyguard bowed to Dylan. “Invest in that orphanage, take care of the children who are still there, and continue to find out more about that little girl. Maybe one day she will come back there.” Dylan is not surprised about not finding the girl who once saved him, he has been looking for her for 8 years, now with his grandfather's decision, he only has 1 year left to find her. By then she will be Eric's niece-in-law. “There is one more person I want you to find.” Dylan seemed to suddenly remember something.
