Henry's knuckles whitened as he gripped the divorce certificate tightly.

There was a wild moment when he felt the urge to rip it up into pieces without a second thought.

The staff member held the marriage certificates which had already been stamped as invalid.

He asked, "Do you still want these? If not, we'll just destroy them."

"We want them!"

Henry took them and stuffed one into Gabriella's hand.

Gabriella was surprised but didn't say anything. She put it into her bag along with the divorce certificate.

"Let's go."

"Alright."

On the way back, Gabriella wound down the car window. The wind that blew against her face was icy and chilled her to the bone.

In the right rearview mirror, she spotted her own expressionless face.

She didn't feel as relaxed as she had thought she would. Rather, she felt a heaviness in her.

That sense of bitterness slowly filled her heart.

Gabriella opened her eyes wide so t

    "Don't overthink it. After all, you were injured so severely because you were trying to save me. I feel guilty about that," Gabriella said as she lowered her eyes.She was being sneaky. She had said that she was uneasy instead of admitting that she felt sorry for him.She would be grateful and worried even if a mere stranger got hurt from trying to save her.But feeling sorry for someone was different. People said that once you start feeling sorry for a man, it means that you'll fall for him.The light in Henry's eyes dimmed. "Aren't you going to ask me why I saved you?"In that situation, he hadn't even had time to think. He hadn't considered his own safety and had just instinctively turned the steering wheel because he didn't want her to be harmed."No matter the reason, I should still thank you. Thank you, Henry." Gabriella looked sincerely at him. Henry was willing to sacrifice his life to save her. She could repay him with her own life.If Henry was in danger one da

"Take it back. If you don't want it, then I'll find an agency to help sell it off."When she signed the divorce agreement, she had wanted the villa.The villa was full of traces of the life they had lived together over the last three years. She had wanted to stay and reminisce slowly. She also didn't want Hannah to take possession of the villa in the future.Now, she no longer wanted the villa. The memories of the past were only full of pain and regrets for her.As she had chosen to let go, she would throw everything away.When Henry heard her, he felt as though a bucket of cold water had been poured over him. He felt chilled to the bone. It felt as though there was a huge rock on his chest. He began breathing shallowly, unable to catch his breath.He tried to process the fact that sh

    After leaving the old Toussaint residence, Gabriella went over to Colene's house with her luggage. Colene didn't live at home. She stayed alone in a single-storey house that was spacious and well-lit. It was very relaxing there. Gabriella decided that when she returned from her trip, she would also buy a single-storey house and live by herself. But that would be in the future. Colene had already planned the route for their trip. A few days ago when she met Gabriella, she had taken Gabriella's passport to help her complete her visa application. She had also prepared the tickets. Gabriella packed for her trip in Colene's single-storey house. That night, Colene, Gabriella and Quinn headed for the airport to begin their journey to their first stop, Lelaug.Lelaug meant the road to the north. It was one of the five countries of the north. A winter trip in Lelaug usually focused on skiing and watching the Northern Lights. According to Colene's plan, they were going to chase

    When he placed the tracker on her, Gabriella had been distracted and assumed that she was the one who had bumped into him. She didn't suspect a thing.Darkness flashed across Henry's eyes and he immediately hung up. He held his breath as he opened an app on his phone. As expected, a small blue dot appeared on the map. It was at Florin City's International Airport.Henry's lips curled into a smile and he closed his eyes.He took a deep breath.He instructed Jacob, who was beside him on the sofa, "Go and help me sort out the discharge procedure."Jacob was shocked. "Mr. Toussaint, your injury hasn't fully healed.""It's fine."Noticing that Jacob hadn't moved, Henry looked up. "Why aren't you gone yet?"Jacob hesitated. "Mr. Toussaint, there's something I'm not sure you're aware of. I don't know if I should tell you.""What is it?""It's about Mrs. Toussaint."He knew that Henry was in a rush to get out of hospital because he wanted to see Gabriella.Although Gabriell

    The building was in the classic Colt style, with high spires and clean-cut lines. It was sleek and majestic, and the pillars were slender. There were two statues flanking it.Quinn took her shopping bags and pointed at Gabriella. She said, "Let Gabby take it for you!"Quinn was a professional photographer, but she noticed that Gabriella wasn't in an energetic mood. She wanted her to join in more so that she could become livelier."Gabby, take it for me!" Colene stuffed her phone into Gabriella's hand before she could refuse.Gabriella was resigned and found an angle to take several photos for Colene.Colene looked at her phone and said in surprise, "Wow! It's great Gabby, you made me look so good!"Quinn glanced at it. Smiling, she said, "Gabby's got technique! How about you be our photographer from now on?""Huh?"

    Gabriella still felt that they were overthinking. "Didn't I tell you? He just wants to pay me for the dry cleaning."Colene raised her eyebrows and sent Robin a reply, "What do you want her Instagram for?"The screen showed that he was "typing" for a long time, and then Robin's message appeared. "I dirtied her clothes, so I should pay for her dry cleaning."Gabriella read it and spread her hands. "See, I told you—"Then, the phone chimed with another message from Robin, effectively cutting her off. "Plus, that lady is so pretty."Colene started laughing and teased, "Gabby, what else can you say?"Gabriella looked away and glanced in Robin and his friends' direction. She and Robin locked eyes.She immediately looked in the other direction, feeling extremely awkward.She had no intention of starting a new romance. Even if she did, she wouldn't choose someone younger than her.Perhaps she had always felt that she lacked love and wanted a mature man who could take care of her and

    Others who didn't understand the situation agreed, especially people who had tried their best to learn more about Henry and were grabbing the opportunity to get in his good books.Maverick thought Henry would lose his temper, but he stayed silent for a moment before suddenly asking, "Then who do you think is worthy of me?"The man hadn't expected Henry to respond to him and said happily, "Ms. Bennett, of course!"Henry didn't move a muscle as his gaze swept over the people around him. He asked in a low voice, "Do you all think so?"They exchanged glances and nodded.Henry sat in the shadows, his expression unreadable as he swirled the glass in his hand. He was silent for a long time. The man who had spoken still hadn't realized his blunder and said, "I'm sure we'll be hearing good news from Mr. Toussaint and Ms. Bennett soon, right?"Suddenly, Henry kicked the table in front of him over. With a huge crash, the alcohol on it shattered on the ground and splashed everywhere.His

    Shawn and Carmila's wedding was rescheduled once Henry had been safely released from the detention center.However, Carmila's pregnancy was already showing, so the wedding was kept simple.Firstly, everyone thought she would appear unsightly if she married while being visibly pregnant. The second reason was that they feared the complex wedding would exhaust her and the child in her womb.Carmila was displeased, but she had no say in the matter. Furthermore, insisting on a bigger ceremony would make it appear that she didn't care about the child.The wedding car left Florin around 5:00 am and picked her up at 8:00 am.Shawn was in a suit, and Carmila was in a wedding gown.

She recognized and mocked me! I was outraged and tried to scare them today. But they smashed my car, pinned me to the ground, and beat me!"Unexpectedly, Sam scowled.

He knew she had accompanied Gabriella to Moabia.She wouldn't let herself suffer, and she wouldn't mock others without reason.

    Then she turned slightly to see that Felise was still fast asleep. However, they were so close that they might wake her up.Gabriella didn't want Felise to catch them in the act.Henry didn't answer. He blew hot air onto Gabriella's neck, and goosebumps prickled her skin. He caught her earlobe and sucked it hard.A jolt of electricity seemed to shoot through her, and she shuddered. She curled her toes and shrank back.Suddenly, Gabriella became fully awake, and she tightened around Henry's hand. "What… what are you doing?"Henry's mouth was next to her ear, and his breath was hot on her earlobes. "I'm helping you relax.""No…""When you're relaxed, I'll sleep."Gabriella remained silent. Then, she bit her lip. "No, Henry… don't… uh, Lise is beside me… don't…"A light seemed to flash across her brain, and she stiffened suddenly, and her eyes went out of focus as she stared at the ceiling. Her breathing turned heavy.Henry kissed her cheek and got some wet towels to wipe her do

The man wore a black shirt with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows, revealing his lean forearms. He wore black pants and a leather belt, which showed off his long legs. He looked like a model.The woman wore a fitting white lace blouse, and there was a white-gold necklace around her creamy neck. Her arms were fair and slender, like snow, and she wore a short khaki-colored miniskirt. Her legs were slim and fair, and her skin was flawless. They were a very good-looking couple, and they attracted the attention of many of the parents. Even the children couldn't help looking over at

    It was already noon. Henry told the driver to make a detour to a restaurant. The waiter led them to a private room on the second floor and politely handed them a menu.Henry had come here a few times before. Perhaps it was because he didn't like lamb, but he only just noticed that there were several signature lamb dishes on the menu. Gabriella looked through the menu and ordered a few at random.Henry heard her orders and told the waiter, "Add a braised lamb and lamb rack.""You have great taste, sir. These are our signature dishes." The waiter smiled and noted it down."Will it be too much?""It's okay. We can bring it back if we can't finish it." Henry gave the menu to the waiter. "That's all."While they waited for the food to be served, the two of them chatted casually.Henry told her in detail about all the affiliated companies under Toussaint Holdings and the new products the studios were about to launch. He asked Gabriella which of these she was interested in. As lo

    Then Layla heard something that made her lose all hope."Layla, come to my office."She opened her mouth, then deflated and said, "Okay."The intern looked curiously at Shawn's retreating figure and said, "Why does Mr. Shawn want to see you?""I don't know. Whatever it is, I'll find out when I go. I'm leaving." Layla carried an expression of dignified resignation.She guessed that Shawn wanted to see her about the office romance issue. She wasn't dating Robin, but it was worse than dating. Shawn had just stepped into the office when Layla followed him in. Her head was lowered, and she looked uneasy. "Mr. Shawn, what do you want to see me about?" she asked, her voice hoarse. Shawn sat down behind the desk and arranged the documents on it. He asked casually, "Do you remember what I asked you during your interview?""Y-yes… you asked me what I think about office romances." Layla lowered her gaze and answered in a small voice.
