Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 153: A Powerful Slap
Luke noticed the change in Number One’s expression and was puzzled. With a slight frown on his face, he asked, “What do you mean?”“Boss, if Miss Hansley were to give Little Master his medication, everything would probably be fine, right?” Number One voiced his thoughts.Luke changed the subject,“How is the investigation of last night’s events going?”“It was the person from the old residence who drugged you,” Number One replied, skirting the crucial question.“What about that woman last night? Have you found out anything about her?” Luke asked coldly.That girl was certainly bold to break into his room.“We can’t find out anything. Boss, please give us some time. It was really an accident. We don’t have many leads or clues,” Number One responded.Last night, nothing seemed out of the ordinary in the mansion. The only strange occurrence was an unexpected resignation from one bodyguard.He had already sent men to look for him, but the bodyguard seemed to have disappeared without a tra
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 154: Once You Leave, Don't Come Back
“I’m not coming back," Dexie stated firmly.She did not know what Paloma was trying to achieve with her sudden plea. Her expression darkened as she immediately rejected her sister’s request.“Dexie, Mom and Dad miss you a lot. I know you blame me for everything. Come back home. If you return, I will leave. Mom and Dad really miss you,” Paloma’s tone was filled with desperation, a stark contrast to her previous arrogance.Dexie frowned at Paloma’s sudden change in demeanor. “What act are you putting on right now? I don’t have time to deal with you. Please, leave.”The steak she had just prepared was getting cold, and Dexie had no intention of engaging with Paloma.“Once you leave, don’t come back. Paloma, Mom and Dad trust you, but I know what kind of person you really are. In the future, I will not hesitate to confront you every time you come. I won’t be polite.”Paloma was secretly pleased that Dexie had reacted exactly as she had expected. She didn’t need to mock her sister further;
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 155
Once Paloma left, Dexie let out a sigh of relief. She composed herself, but when he turned around, Luke had already walked straight into her apartment. He looked at her shoe rack and noticed that it was filled with women's shoes."Does that mean a man doesn't stay here?"A corner of his lips slid into an inexplicable smile, though that smile disappeared almost instantly. Then, nonchalantly, he picked up a pair of women's slippers with one hand and put them on. Just as Dexie turned around, she witnessed this amusing scene."Um, Mr. Huxley, why are you here?" Dexie quickly closed the door and followed him.He made himself at home and led the boy straight to the living room. Then, he casually sat on her sofa. She was truly speechless. He possessed a tall stature and an air of nobility. When he sat in her small and compact living room, it made the space seem extremely cramped. It was a complete mismatch.He ignored Dexie and looked around. Since Little Master had already woken up, he plac

Mr. and Mrs. Hansley exchanged glances, disappointment clear on Lily's face. "Elaine, you don't have to cover for her. Our poor daughter, your face is so swollen!" A fleeting smile crossed Paloma's face as she tried to comfort her parents. Eventually, Lily decided. "We can't let this happen. I will visit her personally tomorrow.""Mother, let dad go instead. If she does it to you too, how can we let that happen?" Paloma carefully chose her words, considering her current relationship with Dexie and her temperament. She knew her visit would only exacerbate the situation."Yes, I will go," Dario quickly intervened. He gazed at Paloma with affection and said, "My daughter, you have suffered."Paloma nodded, tears streaming down her face. "Mom, dad. I will go wash my face now. I'm fine. You should sleep early tonight."After a moment of contemplation, Paloma decided not to mention Luke's visit to her parents. She feared they would favor Dexie more if they knew.As soon as Lily turned arou

She had initially declared that she would never return to the Hansley family. However, Paloma's visit had convinced her that giving up on the Hansley family so easily was not an option.Despite her parents having favorites, they had raised her for many years and treated her well. She was determined not to let Paloma disrupt the Hansley family as she pleased."Do you agree with this, Mr. Huxley?" she inquired instead of directly answering his question."It's a deal," Luke nodded.This girl had a kind heart and was not willing to abandon the Hansley family easily."I have another request," Dexie stated.Luke furrowed his brow and slowly raised his head. "Madam, you shouldn't ask for more when you've already been given enough.""I don't want anyone to know that I'm taking care of Little Shrimp. Also... I need the help of my friend; her name is Jessebelle Claire. She was the one who applied for the job, and I was just helping her buy time. I don't need you to pay her salary; I'll just giv
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 158
"Luke Huxley!"Dexie shouted his name in anger but in a low voice.Luke smiled. He stopped teasing her and turned around before entering Little Shrimp's room.In the room, Luke dealt with some work-related matters on his phone. When he came out of the room much later, Dexie had already fallen asleep on the couch. She hugged her blanket in her arms, her sleeping posture far from ideal. There were still tears in the corners of her eyes.Wait!Her current position... Her shoulder was exposed and if he lifted her pajamas a bit, he could check the scar on her back.He decided and approached cautiously. He reached out a hand and tried to move her clothes aside. However, she immediately turned around and landed on his hand.Luke had failed. He straightened his body and frowned.Dexie seemed quite restless as she slept. A few minutes later, she tossed again. This time, even more of her shoulder was exposed.This was an excellent opportunity.He reached out his hand. He just needed to pull a l
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 159
A few nights ago, the woman he had been with had an extremely slim waist. At that time, he wasn't fully conscious, and his actions were probably a bit rough...As a man, he instantly knew how her bruises appeared.Luke's face darkened. Who had hurt her? Did she have a boyfriend?At that moment, Dexie lowered her head, only to see him casually admiring her figure. He didn't seem to have any intention of backing off. Her face flushed as she exclaimed angrily, "Hey, don't look!"She quickly jumped up and pulled down her clothes to cover her waist. Then, she covered herself with a wool coat, one she had just taken off the balcony. Finally, she grumbled and went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.As Luke watched her silhouette walk away, he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.Damn, who was she?He couldn't keep dwelling on these thoughts as they were unsettling him. He took out his phone and immediately texted Gavin to investigate people close to Dexie, as well as her recent where
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 160
When Luke said this, Dexie sighed helplessly and replied, "This won't work. Little shrimp, let me feed you. Please eat a little more food. Okay?"Little Master shook her head. Dexie acted like a pitiful kitten and said, "I'm very sad. I woke up early to make breakfast, all for Little Shrimp. But you've eaten very little. Look, my hands are so rough and wrinkled. How pitiful..."Little Master seemed to have fallen into the trap. She looked up and glanced at Dexie anxiously. Then, she nodded.Dexie was very pleased. She quickly took the bowl and spoon. "Let me feed you," she said. She set aside her own utensils and fed Little Master, spoon by spoon.Miraculously, Little Master parted her lips and swallowed every bite. She didn't reject it or vomit it.Even Luke was a little envious of this little one. However, he was very curious. Why didn't she vomit or lose her appetite for the food Dexie prepared?I would reevaluate the situation at noon. After finishing the porridge, Little Master e

Gavin replied, “Yes.”He felt a little confused. Outside of family gatherings, the most frequent visitors to the Huxley family were the company executives. Luke never needed to give specific instructions. However, today he gave specific instructions. Who was the guest?However, Gavin only thought about it to himself and didn’t dare say it out loud.Dexie looked at Luke with a smile on her face and said, “Can we go downstairs for breakfast now?”Luke looked at her with a bitter expression on his face as he said, “I’m in a hurry to go to the office.”“Aren’t you going to eat?” Dexie froze for a moment and inquired.Luke nodded and said, “I still have something to do in the office.”“But... I got up really early and was busy all morning,” Dexie said, raising her head in a somewhat aggrieved manner and giving Luke a pitying look. Are you truly planning to skip breakfast?Luke stopped and said, “You and Danny should eat.”When she saw him like that, Dexie knew what was on his mind. She sai
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 322
When Dexie woke up, her body ached. A nurse removed the needle from her hand and, when she opened her eyes, she asked in surprise, “Miss Hansley, are you awake?” Dexie wanted to move but had no strength left.Even after struggling for a while, she still couldn’t get up. The nurse hurriedly said, “Don’t move; I’ll get you some water and help you up.”She used cotton swabs and tape to press the needle tube she had just removed from Dexie’s hand. Dexie was leaning on soft pillows when she turned to pour water and asked, “Miss Hansley, are you hungry?”Dexie was still a bit dazed, and instead of responding to the nurse’s words, she asked, “What happened to me?” The nurse said, “You had a very high fever. Thankfully, early detection prevented disastrous consequences.”It turned out she had a fever. The day before, she went out to look for Danny and came back drenched. She felt uncomfortable and had no strength left before going to bed at night, but she didn’t expect it to be so serious. Su
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 321
Perhaps it was the serious and sincere expression in his eyes that caused Danny to look at Dexie with a hint of doubt.Dexie let out a sigh of relief, then told Danny to lie down and said, “Sleep for a while. You need more rest to get better.”Danny nodded, but he was still a little worried, so he looked at Dexie.Dexie got up, covered him with the blanket, then leaned forward and planted a kiss on Danny’s forehead. With a smile, she said, “Go to sleep. Mommy will come back to my room once you’re asleep.”Danny nodded, then closed his eyes and fell asleep.After closing his eyes for a moment, as if he were still worried, he opened his eyes and looked at Dexie again.He felt relieved to see Dexie still looking at him with a smile.Dexie smiled and said, “Go to sleep.”Danny nodded. Dexie stroked the bed covers over him while humming a lullaby. Danny was exhausted, so he soon fell asleep.After Danny fell asleep, Dexie let out a sigh of relief and stood up.After experiencing intense an

She was busy in the kitchen. After preparing the food, she went upstairs to see if the doctor had finished bandaging him. As soon as she exited the kitchen, she witnessed Gavin dismissing the doctor. Only a nurse remained at home. Tears welled up in Amelia’s eyes as she listened to the doctor’s instructions.Dexie hurried upstairs to see if Danny had woken up.This time, Victor was guarding Danny. He seemed to wait for Dexie. He looked at Dexie coldly and said in a frosty tone, “Miss Hansley, put the things at the door and let the servants in later to deliver them.”He addressed her as Miss Hansley in a polite and distant tone.Dexie had a terrible feeling in her heart and said, “Mr. Huxley, I know you must hate me now, but Danny has a special condition and cannot eat when someone else feeds him. It’s better to let me in. After he recovers, you can deal with me.”Her voice was very hoarse.As she descended the mountain today, she was shouting Danny’s name and crying uncontrollably. Th
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 319: Danny is Injured
Dexie clenched her teeth and gazed in her direction. At that moment, she couldn’t be overly aggressive. Everyone believed she was the one who made Danny flee and sustain injuries. They and Luke might not let her in if she was too confrontational now. She believed she couldn’t take any chances.Dexie took a deep breath and looked at Ava. After trying to calm down, she said to Ava, “Mrs. Huxley, we can discuss who would be responsible later. Luke won’t let me off easily, so don’t stand in my way. I want to go in and see how Danny is. Since there are so many people inside, I can’t do anything to help Danny. I just want to see him. Besides, you have no right to stop me.”Ava scoffed at Dexie and said, “I am Danny’s grandmother and a member of the Huxley family, so why don’t I stop you? You are not welcome here and cannot enter under any circumstances. Luke also told you to leave. Now that Danny has been found, why are you still here?”Dexie was about to speak when the room’s door opened.
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 318: Danny is Found
Dexie took a deep breath, climbed the stairs, and left her bag in the room. She put on a pair of sturdy, non-slip snow boots and a thick down jacket, then grabbed her thermos and headed out the back door where Danny had also left.The warm water was for Danny to drink. When they found him, he would probably want to drink water.Dexie took a flashlight just in case, then went out the door.She was very careful as she walked along the road. She scrutinized the ground for footprints and the branches on either side for any clues left by Danny.Even though she was anxious, she needed to calm down. Finding Danny was the most important thing.After walking for a few minutes, she saw two small paths in front of her. Suddenly she froze in place and hesitated.She wondered, Which path did he take?Although Danny had autism, he was smarter and more contemplative than normal children. Dexie felt she couldn’t try to understand based on common sense, but should think, if I were Danny... what would
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 317: In Search of Danny
As soon as Ava’s voice lowered, Dexie glanced at Gavin and asked, “How is the search going? Has Danny left this mountain?”Gavin looked at Luke and saw that he was still expressionless. He sighed and, without hiding it anymore, said, “We sent people to search and sent a drone, but... Danny is nowhere to be found. They have checked several checkpoints at the exit and consulted with the security guards. Danny never... Unless Danny escaped by climbing a wall at the foot of a mountain, he must still be on the mountain.”After Gavin’s statement, Dexie became even more concerned. She frowned and asked, “Are there no surveillance cameras? Look for surveillance footage and see what happened.”Gavin sighed and said, “except inside and outside the mansion, only a few mountain paths have cameras.” There aren’t many trails, and the nature of the mountain makes it impossible to install surveillance cameras everywhere.Dexie inquired once more, “What is the duration of his absence?”Gavin said, “It

After Dexie spoke with Jessebelle and Noah, it was almost three-thirty. Seeing the time, she said, “It’s time for me to go back.”Noah said, “Alright, be careful and understand that your own safety is the most important, no matter what happens.”Dexie nodded and said, “I know.”Dexie had only driven a few hundred meters after parting ways with the siblings.Gavin called. Dexie was in a positive mood, so she answered the phone and asked with a smile, “Gavin, since you’re calling me now, could it be that you found something in the investigation?”Dexie was in a positive mood, but Gavin said with a desperate voice, “Ma’am, please come back soon. Danny is missing.”“What?” Dexie’s tone changed, and her heart started beating wildly.“Danny ran away on his own. We’ve been searching for a long time, but we still haven’t found him. Even though it’s not snowing, the outside temperature is extremely low, and the road remains icy. There are mountain roads outside, so I’m afraid that Danny might

Danny’s expression was angry, and he frowned as he said, “Mom said she would be home before 3 o’clock. She broke her promise.”Ava sighed, with a look of distress on her face, and said, “Really? How could she break her promise? That’s unacceptable!”Danny seemed even more upset when he heard Ava’s words and said in a plaintive tone, “Mom promised me, so why hasn’t she come back? Did she fight with dad again?”Ava sighed and said, “She might not return, but she might have promised to be home before 3 o’clock just to console you.”I heard she promised you yesterday, but then she disappeared. She may have returned out of sympathy after seeing your tears. Danny, don’t feel too sad about it. Even if she’s not here, I can love you.”Danny shook his head with a look of grievance and said, “No, I want mom.”Ava repeated, “But... she’s not coming back, are you going to go out looking for her?”After hesitating for a while, Danny said calmly, “I... want to call mom.”Ava sighed and told Danny,
