A Dance that Brings Dreams to Life

I had to admit, his acting skills were so good.

And I was such a fool.

I took the water, pretended to take the medicine and fell asleep.

I heard Gerard turn around and go into the study after confirming that I was asleep.

I could go into his study whenever I wanted, but I usually did not go in.

But now I heard the sounds of other mechanisms after he entered the study.

Just like the voice in my dream.

I felt a chill in my heart, realizing that it was not the voice in my dreams.

Every time I took the medicine Gerard handed me, I would fall into a deep sleep.

It was not until he left home that I got up and went into his study.

My eyes were fixed on every corner and furniture there.

Then, I froze as soon as I took my portrait away from the wall and found the mechanism behind.

He actually had an underground secret room.

Inside, there were Sarah's portraits, various reports, awards and wedding dresses and jewelry.

He even cut out Orlando from the wedding photo and put himself and Sarah together in the frame.

There was also a diary.

His love for Sarah was clearly remembered above.

It turned out that he was Sarah's childhood sweetheart.

But in the end, childhood sweetheart could not compare to husband. In order to marry Orlando, Sarah chose to trap me in a car accident.

Orlando cared most about his reputation. For the sake of a man's reputation, he would not change the wedding date for me.

Meanwhile, in order to fulfill Sarah's happiness, Gerard chose to silently protect her.

Every year on Valentine's Day, he gave her valuable gifts.

On her birthday, he even gave her bags, jewelry and villas.

Even on the day she won the dance competition, he gave her an island.

On the contrary, I received the same style of necklace every year.

He explained that it was because when we first met, I was wearing that necklace which attracted him.

I did not flip through the page any further.

How he treated the woman he loved and the woman he did not love was clearly different. But, I had been moved for the hypocrisy and imprisoned in the marriage for the past three years.

Back then, Orlando also chose Sarah and abandoned me.

I did not object to the two of them being crazy about her, but why did they want to step on me?

I opened my mobile phone and found the name that made me tremble.

I typed and sent a message. [Matthew, I regret it. Can you still pick me up and leave now?]

My mentor, Matthew Lynch, quickly replied to the message. [Of course, Nichole, I have always raised you as my daughter. You are so talented. I have always felt sorry for you.]

Just as I lowered my head to reply to the message, he came back.

Seeing me looking at my mobile phone, he frowned.

"Nichole, what are you doing? Are you watching the dance competition again?"

I lifted my head, stared closely at him and spoke slowly, "Gerard, I heard that there are experts abroad who can cure my foot injury and I still want to continue standing on stage."

Gerard hugged my arm and felt a moment of stiffness.

"Nichole, I've asked the experts about your foot injury, no one can cure it. You shouldn't think that foreign experts are good, in fact, they're all lies.”

I concealed the loss and hatred in my heart and lowered my head slightly.

"Gerard, it has been three years. Are you going to let me leave the stage completely and make way for Sarah?"

[Guys, happy Valentine's Day.]

As soon as I saw the bracelet in front of me, my heart slowly sank.

It was just a gift for the necklace. It was the genuine one for Sarah.

Gerard did not try to understand my thoughts any more. He said excitedly, "Nichole, I'll take you to a private dance party!"
