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;

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

"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

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

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

His mood went from bad to worse. It darkened in the blink of an eye.Dexie thought that the heating in the house was not working properly. She sneezed twice before looking at Luke. However, he didn’t look at her. Instead, he finished his breakfast with a grim face.Dexie was perplexed. Was he angry? How unsettling.After eating half a bowl of oatmeal, Little Master couldn’t bear the rest anymore.Dexie frowned when she noticed how sharp his chin was. She said, “Little Shrimp, I worked hard to make it. Are you just going to eat that?”Little Master pouted. He looked at Dexie with a complicated expression as he shook his head sadly.“This is good enough. I’ve never eaten food made by a stranger before...” Luke interrupted from the side.If you added it all up, Little Master probably ate more food during breakfast and dinner last night than in the previous two weeks. Usually, he relied on other forms of nutrition to survive.“Really? What about his mother?” Dexie couldn’t help but ask.L
