Now she was like a young child, her mind forever frozen in time.
But even so, Lucas still didn’t feel satisfied.
He used other means to have Sophie’s parents sent to prison for commercial espionage.
Then, he embarked on a long journey to find his wife.

In a flash, half a year had passed.
Paris, France. I basked in the afternoon sunlight while my brother played quietly with his toys beside me.
Although after half a year of treatment, my brother had improved somewhat, to recover to a normal person, I’m afraid… it would take ten
years.
Maybe he never would–not in this lifetime. We could only hope for breakthroughs in modern medicine.
However, I was willing to wait, even if it took ten or twenty years, I was willing to wait.
What I never expected was that I would meet Lucas again after half a
year.
“Emma, I finally found you…”
Lucas looked very disheveled, unshaven, and his whole appearance

seemed lost and confused.
“You’ve got the wrong person.”
I looked at him coldly and turned to leave.
This man–I never wanted to see him again for the rest of my life.
“No, Emma, I know I was wrong.
“I already know everything. Sophie framed you!

“I’ve already punished Sophie. She can’t hurt you anymore, and I’ve kicked her out of my world.
“Let’s remarry, okay? Without you, I really… can’t live.”
Lucas, at this moment, seemed like a completely different person, without any of his previous arrogance and domineering attitude.
There was only a humility that made people feel somewhat uncomfortable.
“I told you, you’ve got the wrong person.
“Where are the security personnel?”
I raised my hand, and more than ten security personnel quickly came to my front, blocking Lucas.
“Who are you? Get out of my way!”
Lucas looked impatient and spoke rudely.
Just then, Mitchell Baxter slowly walked out, looked at Lucas, and said coldly, “I don’t care who you are, stay away from Professor Richardson!

“She is our country’s high–tech talent. If you threaten her, I have countless charges I can arrest you on!”
After I went abroad, Nina had given me a connection, and with some of my previous relationships, I successfully joined the National Institute for Research in Digital Science and Technology, becoming an honorary professor.
Later, I helped the Institute solve some difficult problems and became a full member of the academy.
Now I was essentially recuperating in France.
And Mitchell was specifically sent by the government to protect me. Those around him were all soldiers.
“No, this…”
Lucas thought that I wouldn’t be able to live without him.
But he never expected that after leaving him, I would do even better.
“Go back and continue your luxurious, carefree life.
“If you continue harassing, I don’t mind using force.”
Mitchell’s tone was filled with unquestionable authority.
I didn’t want to watch anymore and chose to leave directly.
“Emma, don’t leave me.
“I really know I was wrong. After all these years of our relationship, can you really let it go so easily?!”
Lucas looked at my retreating figure unwillingly and shouted hysterically.

I slowly turned around and looked at him coldly.
“Lucas, you and I are now like strangers.
“From now on, you can go find whatever mistresses you want.
“Even if your house is full of mistresses, even if you’re surrounded by dozens of them, it doesn’t matter.
“It has nothing to do with me.

“You continue being your rich boy, but don’t appear in front of me again.”
Having said this, I turned and left.
After this, whatever Lucas did had nothing to do with me anymore.
I heard that Lucas chose to become a priest only because he felt he was dirty and had wronged me, wanting to atone for his sins.
But no matter how much atonement he spoke of, how could it restore what was broken?
We went our separate ways.
More than ten years of relationship had come to this point–like strangers.
Everything was what he deserved.
