And when she knew her husband and Lola once worked in the same company, she regretted about not being able to meet Joshua earlier in her life.

She really liked Lola, even if she knew that Lola had long been out of the entertainment circle.

"Excuse me, Mr. Herren, Miss Li and Mrs. Li. We will be proposing a toast to the next table. Please forgive us for being a bad host, and enjoy your meal!" After saying those beautiful words with a proud and triumphant look, Mr. Han proceeded to take his daughter and son-in-law to another table.

Lola wanted to go to the bathroom so she gently whispered to Thomas, "Excuse me, I'd like to go out for a while."

Thomas wasn't keen of letting her go. He was kind of afraid that she might go to Harry. "Where are you going? I will take you there."

Lola blushed, and answered, "No, thank you. Lillian will be there for me. I'll be right back."

Looking at her blushing face, Thomas seemed to understand her point. "Well, take care. I'll stay here." He said to her tenderly.

Lillian helped Lola towards the bathroom in the corner of the hall, and tried not to attract attention from the people. Yet, there were still quite a few who whispered to one another behind their back when they passed by.

In the bathroom

Lola painfully moved herself from the wheelchair to the stool. Then, Lillian pushed the wheelchair outside and closed the door.

Lillian waited for her outside. A few minutes later, Lola called to her and she came in.

With Lillian's help, Lola managed to sit back in the wheelchair.

Her left leg was much better now, but she still couldn't make walk without a crutch or a wheelchair.

Outside the bathroom, Lola accidentally saw the back garden of the hotel.

"Lillian, I'd like to stay in the garden for a while. Will that be okay?"

"Sure, Lola. Take your time." Then, Lillian slowly wheeled her up to the garden.

As two women passed by and saw Lola, they pointed at her and said something.

"What a vicious woman she is to kill her fiance's mother! How dare she have the guts to even come here?"

"Undoubtedly, she must have no sense of shame! She should be embarrassed of herself!"

At the corner of the corridor, a man was smoking a cigarette in secret. He was indifferently listening to all these.

He guessed that Lola must be near.

"What bullshit are you talking about? Fuck off!!" Lola was not the one who got angry though. Lillian lost her temper first and fiercely stared at the two women.

Tugging at Lillian's clothes, Lola shook her head and said, "Let's go to the garden. Don't mind them."

She didn't give a damn to whatever she will hear. She was used to it already.

Sometimes, Lola really felt she was disillusioned in this world. She even thought of becoming a nun.

When they approached the gate of the back garden, Lola caught a glimpse of a familiar figure from the corner of her eye.

A man in black woolen overcoat was lazily leaning against the wall. He was indifferently smoking a cigarette.

Lola withdrew her sight, suddenly becoming conscious of what she saw, and left.

She chose a place where wintersweet flowers were in blossom nearby an artificial lake. She asked Lillian to go back first, and sat there alone.

Thomas noticed that only Lillian came back, so he asked, "Where is she?"

"My sister would like to be alone in the garden. She will just call me later." Lola had made it a habit to sit for a long time while doing nothing. In fact, she became comfortable with it.

She might actually get ill if she continued living like this.

"I'm going to check her out." Then Thomas stood up, and walked towards the back garden in search for Lola.

Although it was already in the middle of the winter, there was still no snow. Yet. people were still shivering from the cold weather. However, Lola couldn't feel any coldness at all. She had become numb from all these.

She was watching the winterflower petals, one by one softly falling then floating on the water.

All she could think of was her daughter, Nicole. How on earth could she get her again?

Living life for two months like a walking dead, she was almost on the brink of numbness. Without Harry... And without Nicole, her life was dark and her future was lost.

Thomas saw the lonely woman from a distance, then marched off towards her.

"Aren't you feeling cold?" A gentle voice of a man came from above her. This pulled Lola back into reality.

She shook her head slightly. What was coldness? What was pain? She didn't feel a thing anymore. Her emotions had failed her.

Thomas held her slim hands and found out, not surprisingly, that they were bitterly cold.

With both of her hands wrapped in his warm palms, Lola felt a warm current run through her body. She raised her head and looked at Thomas. Bathed in the majestic winter sunshine, he seemed to be more brilliant and charming.

She tried to free her hands, but Thomas didn't let her go.

Kneeling close to her, his eyes were parallel with hers.

Thomas watched her beautiful eyes, and said, "Lola, follow me. I will take you away from here." He would take her by his side, and protect her from any harm. He would do that from now on.

Lola blankly watched his affectionate eyes, and said blankly, "I killed a person. How could you want to be with me?" Actually, only she knew whether she killed Rose or not.

Thomas smiled, making her feel quite comfortable. "Whatever it is, I will fix it for you. You don't need to worry about it." He just wanted to hold her in his arms, take care of her and make her happy.

As the cold winds blew, Lola became teary-eyed.

They gazed at each other, as if there was no one else in the world.

"Mommy." All of a sudden, a sweet little voice echoed from behind her.

Lola turned back surprisingly. Sure enough! It was Nicole standing from a distance and looking at her.

At that very moment, tears streamed down her cheeks like raindrops. Lola was trembling and her voice was shaking, "Nicole..." Her voice was a little bit hoarse.

Nicole ran towards Lola quickly. She could not hold it much longer.

Yet, without noticing a rock under her feet, she fell down to the ground.

As Lola saw her daughter about to trip on a rock, she hurriedly stood up from the wheelchair and made her first step.

Yet on her second step, she fell down to the ground as well.

As there was grass at this side, she didn't feel much pain.

However, Nicole fell on the gravel road. This made Lola feel extremely bad.

So she couldn't wait for Thomas to lift her up. She pushed him to Nicole's way. "Go check Nicole!" For heaven's sake! Nicole must be all right! She hoped she didn't injure her legs...

Nevertheless, Thomas still lifted her into her wheelchair first, then picked the little girl up. Nicole was already on the ground.

Nicole was actually suffering from great pain, yet she managed to hold back her tears.

Seeing mommy looking at her, she knew that she was already heartbroken. If mommy saw her crying, it would break mommy's heart even more.

Thomas carried Nicole in front of Lola and then sweetly put her into Lola's arms.

As if carrying a treasure, Lola held her daughter proudly in her arms, whom she had been longing for dozens of days and nights.

"Mommy, don't cry! Please!" Nicole sweetly wiped Lola's tears away, and then put her arms around her mom's neck tightly.

Thomas could tell that Lola probably hadn't seen her daughter for quite a long time. He immediately felt really sad.

That guy was indeed heartless. Though he knew that this woman and her daughter would miss each other deeply, he still stopped them from seeing each other. Did he really love her? Otherwise, how could he be so hard on her?

Standing behind Lola, Thomas patted her on the shoulder and comforted her gently. "Don't cry. Isn't it a happy thing to see your daughter?"
