Sometimes, Caleb and his group of friends would make bets on whether Lucas‘ newest girlfriend would
be the one to end his bachelor’s life, but they always lost the bets.
On the surface, Lucas was a man who appeared courteous, but in reality, he was so cold that he might
as well be a corpse.
“Yes, I know. I can’t touch that bracelet.”
Caleb wasn’t surprised at all. Anyone who spent a long enough time with Lucas knew that the man
cherished the silver bracelet and wouldn’t allow anyone else to touch it,
Just then, a figure approached them, and Caleb looked up to see that it was Lucas‘ newest girlfriend,
Lyra. She was a rising star in the entertainment industry who had recently gained a lot of popularity.
Of course, her recent success was all thanks to Lucas.
As a bigshot in the entertainment industry, Lucas held the largest entertainment and film company in

Lucas always doted on his girlfriends, but when he was no longer interested in them, he would
resolutely leave them without looking back
“Sorry I’m late, Lucas,” Lyra said softly.
When she caught sight of the bracelet in Lucas” hand, a complicated look flashed across her face.
It was undeniable that Lucas treated her well at this moment. Even if she asked for millions worth of
jewelry, he would reply without blinking, “If you like it, go ahead and buy it.”
But this silver bracelet was off–limits, a taboo.
Even she wasn’t allowed to touch it.
Once, she had pretended that she had touched it, and he had shot her a cold look and said, “Do you
believe me if I said those fingers of yours will no longer he attached to your body if you dare touch that
bracelet with them?”
Lucas‘ eyes had been filled with viciousness when he had said those words.
Lyra had been terrified, and she hadn’t dared to breathe, much less move.
Although he had carried on pampering her after that incident, Lyra was well–aware that she would
never compare to that silver bracelet in his hands.
Just what in the world did that silver bracelet represent? It looked small and like it could barely fit the
size of a child’s wrist.
“It’s fine,” Lucas replied casually as he kept the bracelet away.
After Lyra took a seat, her gaze fell on Jackson, who was seated not too far away. When she
recognized his features, she was startled and asked, “Is that Mr. Jackson Valor?”
She had only seen him from a distance once, so she wasn’t entirely confident.
Especially in this moment when he seemed so intimate with another woman.
Weren’t there rumors about how the was indifferent to women?
“Yes, that’s Jackson,” Caleb said with a smile, then turned to Lucas. “How about a bet? Let’s see if
Jackson leaves with that Wodnan later.”

“Why not?”
Lucas said nothing, but he kept his paze fixed in Jackson’s direction.

Caleb turned around again and noticed that Jackson had already distanced himself from the woman,
who seemed to be trying to get closer to the man again. However, Jackson seemed to say something,
and the woman dared not approach him again.
Then, Caleb watched as Jackson left alone.
Outside the clubhouse, Connor watched as Jackson exited the building and greeted him respectfully,
“Mr. Valor.”
“Let’s go, Jackson said in response as he climbed into the car.
Had he come here today to deliberately prove something? But in the end, the only thing he had proven
was that he couldn’t accept just any random woman approaching him.
When he embraced the woman who had approached him just now and smelled her perfume, he
couldn’t help but miss the faint soap fragrance of another woman.
