Chapter 3024

"Whatever it is, let's talk tomorrow. I'm really tired."

Right after she spoke, she headed upstairs.

Watching her silhouette, Larry felt upset.

Forget it, we'll talk about it some other time.

With that, he turned around and headed to the gym.

The next day, it was just as quiet.

Stretching herself, Joan opened her eyes gradually.She then massaged her temple to awaken herself further.

Where's Larry? Her right hand felt around the empty spot beside her.

Has he gone to work? She quickly checked her phone and saw that it was already eight.

After getting up, she washed up before leaving the house.

Recently, the weather had been great and was excellent for an outing.

Since Larry was busy with work every day, she decided to go out on her own to ease her mind.

"Ah!"

Facing the sea, she stretched out her arms to relax.

Little did she know that there was someone glaring at her nefariously from behind.

The man asked the woman beside him, "Is it her?"

'Yes, that's her. She's your target!" the woman affirmed while patting him on the shoulder.

Her eyes were filled with murderous intent.

Excellent!Joan, you have finally shown up! Abelyn looked at the man from afar with a smug expression.

"Hi, miss, are you alone?"

Suddenly, a handsome man approached Joan and greeted her.

"What do you want?"

Joan questioned.

Given that she was someone guarded, she naturally didn't want to interact with any strangers.

After all, she had been through so much that she couldn't help but be vigilant all the time.

"I'm all by myself too; the man replied as he looked out to the sea, hiding his insidious expression.

"Oh, there's something I need to attend to. I'm leaving first"

Just as she spoke, Joan turned to leave.

"Wait, can you chat with me for a while? My girlfriend had just died in a car accident" the man remarked softly, feigning sadness with his head lowered. When she heard his words, Joan couldn't help but sympathize. He must be feeling devastated now.

After scrutinizing the man's expressions, her gaze darkened.

There's no harm in chatting with him for a while.

Joan sat down by the beach while looking calmly out to the sea.

"If your girlfriend were still alive, she wouldn't want to see you this way" Joan commented with a dispassionate tone.

Turning to look at Joan, a smile broke out on his face.

Finally, she took the bait.

He felt rather relieved.

"We were together for five years and had planned to get married.

No one expected her to suddenly meet with a car accident; the man said as tears streamed down his cheeks.

Given how rare it is for a man to cry, he must have loved his girlfriend deeply.

Joan was heartbroken by his response.

"She was such a kind and innocent girl.

Why did God have to take her away? God isn't fair. She should have had a perfect life.

Unfortunately...

Given how emotional the man had become, Joan didn't know what to say to console him.

She empathized with him and understood his feelings.

However, she was oblivious to the fact that this was all just a charade.

Suddenly, the man, with a pitiful expression, hugged Joan and refused to let go.

"Hey! Let go! Hey!"

Joan struggled and screamed at the same time.

"Just let me hug you for a while, alright? You really look like her" the man uttered suddenly.

What?! look tike his girlfriend? Joan was stunned.

This can't be right as it's too much of a coincidence.Is this a trap? Joan looked upset as she increased her vigilance.
