That instant of agony felt as if it tore through her numb nerves!
(This part has been redacted------------------------------------------)
Without hesitation, she struggled to her feet, even if it meant furrowing her brow in pain—it was a price she was willing to pay!
Panicked, she escaped from the room, not returning to the rooftop ballroom but instead drove through the streets of Las Vegas. She sped out of the city, racing along the silent road, finally stopping at Death Valley.
In the early morning, as the first ray of sunlight slowly rose in the distance over Death Valley, she felt as though everything about her was reborn.
The shallow and pathetic person she once was, the one who had been utterly dejected over a man, seemed to fade away with the night.
Upon returning to Toronto, she was no longer impulsive; she had become a completely different person. She studied hard and, after graduation, diligently worked at her company.
Lu Jiayuan could no longer affect her emotions.
