Chapter143
Rigoberto held Krista’s shoulders, pushing her to sit down on
the sofa, leaning in front of her, insisting on catching up with
her.
How did I talk nonsense? Don’t think that just because I haven’t
been in Rivermond recently, I don’t know what’s happening in
Rivermond. I actually saw it in the news. Terrence filmed
Burning Love and gave it to you.
“Stop it, you’re not allowed to say anything anymore,” Krista
picked up a glass of wine and handed it to Rigoberto, “shut your
mouth with this.”
Rigoberto talked a lot and, since he hadn’t seen Krista for a long
time, he managed to start a conversation with her.
Terrence took a puff of his cigarette. The hall was dim, with
colorful ambient lights flickering on and off, making him look
even more handsome and mysterious.
He picked up the wine glass, clinked it with Lucian’s, drank half
of it, and said lightly, “Do you need something from me?”
“Hmm.” Lucian held his glass and leaned back against the booth

seat, adopting a lazy posture, but his tone was somewhat
serious. “Kyson Duarte asked me to find someone.”
Terrence casually said, “Did you find your lost doll from
childhood?”
“You guessed it so quickly!”
“The Duarte family wanted to find someone, besides their lost
daughter, who else could they look for?” Terrence took a sip of
red wine from his crystal glass and said calmly, “They have been
searching for so many years and still haven’t found her. Hasn’t
the Duarte family given up?”
“Kyson said Mrs. Duarte was seriously ill and might not survive
for another six months. In her final moments, she wanted to
search again, hoping to find a glimmer of hope.”
“It’s been twenty years, where to find it?”
The Duarte family was not an ordinary family. They had spent
a lot of manpower and financial resources in the past, but still
couldn’t find it. It’s not so easy to find it now.
Lucian smiled and said, “So, I had to come to you for help!”
“I didn’t have such great powers and knowledge.”
Chapter1431
Lucian raised his glass and the two of them clinked glasses
again.
Lucian’s voice was gentle, “Alright, stop being so modest. Other
people may not know your abilities, but how could I not know?
With such a vast knowledge base, it must be easier for you to
find things than others. If you can find it, then find it. If you
can’t find it, there’s nothing we can do. But if you do manage to
find it, with my father’s and Mr. Duarte’s relationship, I have no
choice but to marry.”
Friends rarely get together, Terrence casually chatted, “You’re
overthinking it. Calculate the age, that little girl should be
twenty–six this year, a girl of this age, maybe she’s already
married.”
If I got married, it would be better, so that my dad wouldn’t
force me to marry.

The wine in Terrence’s cup was gone. He put down the
was about to pour more wine when he saw a familiar figure
walk in, accompanied by a man who nodded and bowed.
Terrence’s deep eyes suddenly darkened.
The position where they were sitting at this table had the best
visual effect in the hall.
Chapter143
Not only did Terrence see Bethany, but in the moment Krista
raised her gaze, she also saw Bethany.
Her gaze instantly shifted to Terrence.
Terrence stared at the door, his gaze fixed on Bethany.
“Terrence, Beth came to look for you, right? I called her earlier,
but she didn’t seem to see us.”
“Krista.”
Terrence withdrew his cold, deep gaze, with wisps of smoke
lingering at his fingertips. Under the intoxicating atmosphere,
his elegant posture appeared even more seductive and alluring.
“Don’t worry about her.”
Krista was astonished.
Rigoberto immediately looked at Krista and then looked at
Terrence.
As for Lucian, he was also looking at them.
Rigoberto couldn’t help it and asked with a smirk, “Who is Beth
that you guys are talking about? Where is she?”
Krista was even more stunned, “Rigoberto, you don’t know
Beth?”
Chapter 143
“I didn’t know, Lucian. Did you know?”
Rigoberto was truly cynical, but it was also evident that this
Beth had some connection with Terrence, yet he had never
heard of any woman named Beth around Terrence.
Lucian shrugged, he also didn’t know who Beth was.
Over the years, Terrence never let Bethany see anyone by his
side.
At first, Rigoberto and Lucian asked and were curious, wanting
to meet.
Terrence refused, as if that wife didn’t exist.
In their view, it was also because Terrence couldn’t marry
Krista that he got angry with his family, and then it just ended
there, with no interest in pursuing further. After all, Terrence
didn’t really care about that wife, so they just considered him
single.
