Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 11
Is this woman deliberately trying to provoke everyone? Is Luke Huxley blind? How could he blindly protect someone like Dexie? Dexie wasn't interested in guessing what the Dominos thought. Although she couldn't understand why Luke Huxley confronted her, it would be a waste if she didn't use him, as he was an effective asset. After that exchange, Dexie stood up from the couch and said, “I’m hungry. "Mary, serve dinner." It was as if she were the head of the house, and everyone had to behave according to her rules. Rodel was climbing the walls, but there was nothing he could do about it. It was not only because Luke Huxley protected Dexie but also because she possesses 40% of the Hansley Corporation. If Rodel wanted full control of the Hansley Corporation, he had to take over Dexie's actions. Until then, he couldn't afford to impose his relationship on her. So, he took a deep breath and said, "Let's eat." The Dominos thought the whole thing was over. But when they were about to e

Dexie smiled sarcastically, "It seems like your appetite has grown after living with my family for so many years. Do you really think you're the heir to the family?" Roxane was so agitated by Dexie's insult that she almost lost her mind. Releasing her pent-up anger, Roxane blurted out, "I am the heir to the Domino family." Silence filled the room immediately after Roxane's outburst. As they turned to Dexie, guilt and panic instantly replaced their previously dark faces. Dexie raised her eyebrows, put on a playful smile, and then looked at Roxane. "What? Did you just say?" Dexie asked, her eyes flickering with amusement. Roxane's mind was hazy with anger. As she calmed down, her heart raced uncontrollably when she encountered Dexie's mocking look. She refused to meet Dexie's eyes, lowering her gaze. Before Roxane could respond, Dexie looked from her to Rodel and laughed. "If I'm not mistaken, did she say that she is the heir to the Domino family?" "No, no, that's not what Roxa

Even though he was the corporation's head, he was still a member of the Hansley Corporation, not the Domino Corporation.He was merely an employee of the Hansley family.The sarcastic smile on Dexie's face reminded Rodel that she was a member of the Hansley family, and a hint of murderous intent appeared in his eyes.Dexie's presence reminded him of the shame of depending on her husband, and it was as if his history of relying on a woman could only disappear if she were gone.All the members of the Domino family crowded into Roxane's room.There were only two or three maids who stayed to serve Dexie.However, the maids had disapproving looks in their eyes.Mrs. Dawson was too ruthless and vicious.Even though Ms. Domino was not her biological sister, they had lived together as sisters for more than a decade. Mrs. Domino was seriously ill. How could Mrs. Dawson be so cruel to herself? Now that Ms. Domino is in critical condition, no one knows if she will survive. How could Mrs. Dawson h

She paused for a moment, then laughed lightly before continuing contemptuously, "Mr. Dawson, what are you trying to achieve here?"As she spoke, she felt the grip around her waist tighten, likely due to Luke Huxley's embarrassment at her words. However, Dexie remained unfazed. Her smile widened as she remarked, "The way you're behaving right now is quite... unpleasant!" Her words carried a weight that seemed to crush him. He was reluctant to acknowledge her words as they struck a chord with the unresolved issues in his heart. A few days earlier, she had signed the papers as he had requested, while he had been unwilling to do the same. The question lingered in Luke Huxley's mind why he had hesitated. When his grandfather had pressured him to marry Dexie for her family's inheritance, he had harbored deep resentment towards her. He failed to see that she was merely a pawn in the Hansley family's scheme to manipulate him through his grandfather's threats. Luke Huxley was prepared to rel

The one who tried to fight for a position with him was his uncle—not his bastard son, but his illegitimate son, his grandfather. How could an illegitimate son take something that belonged to him?In the end, Luke Huxley married Dexie as his grandfather wished.To Luke Huxley, it didn't matter who she married, as long as he appeased his grandfather.He had gotten what he wanted from the family last year. As for Dexie, he continued to ignore her.Now that her grandfather had passed away, he finally filed the divorce agreement, which she had been planning since she got married.However, he didn't expect Dexie to stop messing with him and agree to a divorce so decisively.What was even more unexpected was that his heart was a mess when she signed the papers.Dexie noticed that she kept a straight face and said nothing. While he was lost in thought about her, she quickly withdrew from his arms.She straightened her slightly wrinkled shirt and calmed down. I hope you can sign those papers as

Marilyn repeatedly advised Dexie to divorce Luke Huxley, whom she considered a failure and a bastard. Just mention of his name made her mutter expletives. Dexie took the vodka from Marilyn with a slight smile and brought it to her lips, causing her to cough from the burning sensation. She felt sick and nauseous, with a strange feeling in her throat, fearing she might vomit. "Dexie, how can you drink such strong vodka in one go?" Marilyn asked, concerned as Dexie's cheeks turned bright red. Marilyn rushed to pat her on the back. "How do you feel? Are you okay?" After recovering from the shock, Dexie reassured Marilyn, "It's okay. I was just thirsty and drank too fast." She looked away, hiding the pain in her eyes, then poured herself a glass of vodka before slowly responding to Marilyn's question. "Honestly, I realized a long time ago that he doesn't love me. He hates me. It's fair..." Dexie paused, with a self-deprecating expression, and added, "I'm not ready to give up, you know.

Just at this moment, Simon's cell phone rang. He took it out and looked. Taking one look at Marilyn, he stood up, walked to a corner, and picked up the call. "Luke Huxley?" "Simon, where are you?" Luke Huxley's voice came from the other end of the phone. "I'm at the Woodlands Clubhouse with Marilyn," Simon replied. "I'm coming over. Have a drink with me," Luke Huxley said. Simon was speechless.He turned around and looked at Marilyn, thinking to himself, "Luke Huxley will suffer once more. Marilyn won't let him off the hook easily." However, he did not convey this to Luke Huxley. "Okay." After hanging up the phone, Simon returned to his seat and sat down. Marilyn looked at him questioningly. "Who was that?" Waving the mobile phone in her hands, Simon replied, "Luke Huxley." Marilyn frowned at the mention of Luke Huxley's name. "Why did he call you?" She narrowed her eyes at Simon, a hint of warning in her voice as she continued, "Don't get too close to him. I'll teach you a

After the doctor left, Luke Huxley was still sullen. Dexie, who was drunk, didn't utter a word. Leaning silently into Luke Huxley's arms, she moved her lips as if whispering something. Luke Huxley stood up from the couch with Dexie in his arms. "I'll take her back first," he said. Simon raised an eyebrow curiously, "Didn't you come here to drink with me?" His words made Simon pause. He held Dexie's hand a little tighter. "Maybe some other day," he said, pretending to leave. "Where are you taking Dexie?" Marilyn interjected, "You don't have a valid reason to do so. You're harassing her, don't you realize?" Luke Huxley was taken aback. He took a few deep breaths to compose himself. "Marilyn, Dexie Hansley is my wife," he stated firmly, feeling entitled to take Dexie home. If someone else had said that to him, he would have made them suffer. "Wow! Now you admit she is your wife, huh?" Marilyn rolled her eyes. "I heard from Dexie that she was divorcing you. She signed the papers."

This matter was troublesome.“Are they in the restaurant right now?” Dexie calmed down and asked.This batch of lunchboxes could not be returned. They would have to resolve it in some other way.“Yes, they are in the restaurant,” Eric quickly said, “If this matter is not resolved, I’m afraid of reporters will find out, and then it will be even worse for us.”“I know. Keep them occupied, and I’ll come soon.” Dexie had not yet thought of a solution. The only way to solve this was to buy them new ones. However, if the other party refused, she wouldn’t be able to do anything.When she thought about this, Dexie frowned and had a headache.What can be done about it?For now, they could only take it one step at a time and try to stall. After all, the boxes were in their hands, and it was impossible to return them. So, they would have to resolve it in another way. As for Dexie, she certainly was not willing to return them.Dexie told the driver to leave quickly. When she arrived at the resta

The burning red roses were arranged in the shape of a large heart that was beautiful beyond words. Dexie instantly understood why Luke had asked her to come. It turned out to be a surprise for her."Wow, what beautiful flowers. Dad, did you give them to Mom?" Danny's voice came from somewhere, so Dexie turned around and saw both Danny and Luke standing behind her, smiling at her.Dexie turned to look at Luke and laughed when she said, "How can you continue to act so frivolous when you are the president of the Huxley Group?"Although she said this, she felt extremely happy.Luke approached Dexie and couldn't help but grab her waist with a smile on his face. He said, "As long as this frivolous trick can make my wife happy, it's worth it."Dexie couldn't refute a single word he said, so she smiled and nodded as she said, "Okay, you're right."Only then did Luke smile and ask Dexie, "Do you like it?"Dexie nodded and said, "Yes, I like it."Which woman wouldn't like flowers? Which woman w

He threw the remote control he had in his hand at the television, which was hanging on the wall. It made a loud noise when he threw it, and the television wobbled a bit as if it were about to fall at any moment.On one hand, Weston's face was expressionless. He wore a mask, so he could have had an expression on his face, but it couldn't be seen.He walked towards the television and reached out to gently hold it before turning his head to look at Zoey and said in a deep voice, "What's your plan?""I underestimated this woman," Zoey breathed twice to calm herself down before saying, "I can't believe she came up with an idea so quickly, but why do those lunch boxes being sterilized look so familiar?"Weston's voice showed slight fluctuations as he said, "Those were the ones, Mrs. Jensen prepared to donate to the children at the orphanage last time. She bought more than necessary and intended to return them.""In that case, how did they end up in her hands?" Zoey's eyes were cold, and her

In this kind of situation, William’s Fast Food would make headlines regardless of the news, so it was a good deal for them, and they could also take advantage of this opportunity to promote the restaurant.A reporter pushed through to ask Dexie, “Miss Hansley, you’re not deliberately promoting things to get in the headlines, are you?”Upon hearing this, Dexie was not offended but simply smiled at the reporter in the crowd and chuckled as she said, “You probably haven’t worked in any other industry, let alone the food industry, have you? Everyone will make headlines, but no one will use this method to do so. Wouldn’t that be counterproductive? You’re joking, but that joke isn’t funny.”After Dexie said this, the reporters around looked at the reporter strangely, and the reporter also seemed to realize she was out of place and did not speak again.Seeing this, Dexie said, “Alright, everyone, please come in. If you want to take photos of something, do so, and if you have questions, ask.

“Dexie, what’s the point of ordering a cabinet disinfection machine now?”Eric was confused and said, “There are already several units in the store.”“That’s not enough. By the way, instruct the staff to go to the store and remove all the cabinets from the cabinet machine so they don’t take up space. The kitchen will continue to operate as usual today. There’s no need to be deliberate, but everyone should be careful not to make the slightest mistake. Later, there may be reporters coming in to take photos. No one has to do anything consciously, just follow the usual routine,” Dexie told Eric.“Dexie, what do you want to do?” Eric was confused. He had never experienced this kind of situation before, and it was such a big spectacle that he was now a little scared.Dexie’s voice sounded extraordinarily calm and serene as she said, “Eric, I have already thought of a solution, so don’t be anxious and do as I say. I will communicate with you later.”“Have you already figured out what to do?”

“Did you just find out?” Dexie asked with a gossipy expression.Luke nodded and said, “Yes, I just found out, so I’m telling you.”Dexie was very puzzled, and after thinking for a moment, she said, “With this evidence, Ava will be convicted in front of your father in the future and directly expelled from the Huxley family. Without her interference, your father would probably not have me a hard time so often in the future.”“Although my father doesn’t agree with this marriage, if she were an understanding person and advised my father, our relationship wouldn’t be so bad.” Luke’s tone of voice cooled.“So when are you going to tell your father?” Dexie asked.Luke sighed and told Dexie, “Not yet. Now is not the time. Regarding the previous maritime incident and someone who bought internal shares of the Huxley family, she and my uncle were the ones who conspired and joined forces to cooperate with the York family.”So that’s how it was.Dexie nodded and said to Luke, “What about... Quenti

As he spoke, he approached Dexie and once again tapped her cheek twice. The meaning couldn’t be more obvious.He had to kiss her. Dexie’s mouth pouted as she looked indignantly at Luke, then reluctantly moved and gave him a peck on the cheek while saying, “You can say it now, right?”Luke said with a serious face, “I feel like there wasn’t enough sincerity.” Luke seemed quite serious.Upon hearing this, Dexie snorted and said, “You’re playing with me.”Luke laughed and said, “Letting my wife kiss me is not a joke, right?”Dexie was defenseless and said, “So, what do you want?”Luke calmly said, “Just a kiss on the lips.”Upon hearing this, Dexie blushed as she said, “Luke, you, you... rascal...”However, Luke acted pitifully as he said, “God, to ask for a kiss from my wife, I even have to use this kind of trick. Don’t you think I’m pitiful?”When he said that, he looked at Dexie with a pitiful expression, and his eyes were filled with complaints, as if Dexie had done something unforgi

Dexie nodded as she looked at the distress and anguish in Sabrina’s eyes, and couldn’t help but force a smile when she said to Sabrina, “I never expected that one day, meeting my mother would also require cunning.”Sabrina smiled bitterly, her tone becoming helpless and sad as she told Dexie, “Dexie, hold on a little longer. Just... you can’t reveal this matter to anyone now, for your safety. Your restaurant also has good business, so I’m afraid it could cause trouble, so you must be more careful.”Dexie smiled and said, “There’s nothing to be aggrieved about when I can see mom. I’m thrilled, and I won’t tell anyone yet. Mom, be careful when you go back alone and don’t expose yourself.”After Dexie finished speaking, she wiped Sabrina’s tears and took out her makeup cushion, asking, “Do you mind if I use this to fix mom’s makeup?” Sabrina quickly took Dexie’s hand and said, “Silly girl, why would mom mind?”Dexie opened the cushion, dabbed away Sabrina’s tear marks, before smiling an

Sabrina's voice was sad and relieved, making Dexie also overwhelmed with emotion. She first stiffened for a moment, then hugged Sabrina tighter and whispered, "Mom, I also thought I would never find my biological mother again, but I never thought it would be you. Mom..."As if she had been waiting for a long time, as if she had been waiting for a century, Dexie couldn't help but scream repeatedly.Sabrina, who looked so much like her, was her mother...Sherry also wiped her tears aside and said, "Look at us, this is a joyful occasion, so why are we crying? It wouldn't be good for people to see us when we go out later! Miss Dexie and Mrs. Jensen are both kind-hearted people, so you two deserve to reunite. I finally achieved something this time."If it weren't for Sherry's words this time, no one would have remembered this matter. She didn't want to take credit for it, but she was trying to joke and lighten the mood so that mother and daughter wouldn't continue crying without thinking o
