Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 174
A member of the Blake family informed Oswin’s parents that Dexie was legally adopted and that her biological status didn’t matter. According to the law, she can inherit the family since she was raised there. With the sudden increase in her shares, she now has a significant advantage over me in case of a dispute. She has the backing of the Huxley family, further increasing her chances.“Mom, what should I do?” Paloma cried, wiping her tears and watching Lily’s reaction.Lily’s expression darkened immediately. She turned to Paloma and asked in a haughty tone, “How did the Blake family handle this situation?” Only their family of four was aware of these details.“I’m not sure how they found out. This is all I know,” Paloma replied sadly.“Mother, I hesitated to tell you because I knew it would upset you. But this has implications for the future of the Hansley family.”“Did Dexie disclose this information to them?” Lily inquired with a furrowed brow, concluding some thought.Paloma’s exp

After leaving the bathroom, she chose a black slip from the wardrobe. Then, she picked an ordinary-looking white padded coat to cover herself and paired it with a pair of black boots. She didn't wear any accessories. Her makeup was done simply. She had brought no belongings. However, she still needed to change her outfit. She avoided choosing items that looked expensive.She applied a thin layer of makeup before saying goodbye, grabbing a gray bag. As she walked out of the living room, she saw a dark silhouette standing under the pavilion in the courtyard. In response to the echo of her footsteps, the dark silhouette turned to look in her direction.She had just come out of a bright room and couldn't see the other party clearly. She could only vaguely make out a tall silhouette. She didn't know why, but their shadow exuded a dominant and oppressive aura. It felt very familiar and made her feel like prey being hunted. Her heart beat involuntarily."Are you planning to run away?" The da

After entering Black Bar, Paloma invited Dexie, who had been waiting for her at the entrance.Luke remained seated inside the sports car. He furrowed his brow and seemed a little annoyed.“Hey, Luke, why are you here?” shouted the calm and pleasant voice of a man.Before Luke could roll up the car windows, the owner of the voice approached and blocked them. He smiled and said, “It’s really you. What a rare sight. Why don’t you come in and sit down?”The owner of the voice was Luke’s good friend, Jasper Davies. He had a handsome face that women loved. He was also the sole owner of Black Bar.“Back off.” Luke pushed him without reservation. He prepared to close the windows.“You drove all the way here. Don’t be in such a hurry to leave.” Jasper smiled shamelessly. As he smiled, his dimples appeared. He really looked more handsome than most girls.He raised his eyebrows as he looked inside and said, “The girl who just entered isn’t bad, huh? Is she your woman?”Luke remained silent.“Dam

“Oh? How are you going to make things difficult for me?” Dexie mocked.“You’re just a kid born into a poor family. Do you think it’s that difficult for us? Damn, I can’t believe you dared to act so shamelessly, even though you came alone. Polly, hit her back,” declared Maggie Thompson. She pushed Polly forward. Among the few, Polly was considered the kindest of all.“Come and try me,” Dexie said coldly. Those rich and delicate girls were no match for her at all.The boys sitting behind the group of girls watched as they argued. Instead of telling them to stop, they even started whistling jokingly to cheer them on.Dexie looked at them coldly. She noticed that among that group of men, the delicate-looking boy sitting in the corner had remained silent the whole time.She had an air of indifference towards him. He didn’t seem different from the surrounding people. However... his clothes were the most worn out. His eyes were fixed on Dexie attentively, though he occasionally glanced at Po
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 178
The girls exchanged glances in response to Paloma’s words. They realized it was indeed a bad idea to make a scene there. Paloma was going to marry Oswin Blake. In the future, they could have many opportunities to win his favor. That’s why they left things as they were and sat on the sofas.Paloma’s call had just ended. "Hello, Oswin, where are you now?” she asked.The person on the other end of the call didn’t seem to be used to her enthusiasm. He seemed unsure of how to respond. After another two seconds, a soft voice finally answered, though it sounded hesitant.“It’s still early. I just left home,” he replied.To get to the Blake residence, he would have to cross a river in the city center. They were at opposite ends of the city, and it would take him over an hour to reach her.Paloma had intentionally delayed her arrival to trick Dexie into coming earlier. That way, she could implement her plan.“Oh, we’re already here, Dexie has also come to congratulate us. Hurry!” Once Paloma h

That day, Paloma seemed very excited. She sat next to Dexie with a smile. Her face was glowing as she poured herself a glass of wine. Then, she poured another cup for Dexie and raised the glass.“Dexie, let’s leave all the bad things that have happened in the past behind, okay? After all, we are still sisters. Once I return to the Hansley family and start working, we can work together to help father overcome these difficulties.”As Paloma said this, everyone turned to look at them. Dexie was curious to see what she had up her sleeve.Dexie did not take the glass Paloma had passed to her, nor did she give a response. She simply gazed at her.After Dexie stared at her so intensely, Paloma’s smile seemed to stiffen for a fraction of a second. She appeared quite uncomfortable.What was wrong with Dexie Hansley? In the past, hadn’t she easily listened to every word of Paloma? Since the incident that night, it seemed like she had become more difficult to control.“The Hansley family is faci

When he imagined her smiling at Oswin, that fickle man, he instantly became irritated. No way. Tonight, he had to punish her when they returned! It was a rather strange experience. Although he clearly couldn’t get close to other women, this girl was an exception. This was especially true after he discovered her identity. He wanted to get close to her, and there were even moments when he felt like kissing her. He did not know what kind of curse he was under. Danny’s psychiatrist once said that Luke had a mild allergy to a different sex. He couldn’t get close to women. He laughed and wondered how such a strange illness could exist. However, Dexie seemed to be an exception! Luke’s expression had undergone such a drastic change. When Jasper and his friends saw this, they felt their hearts tremble in fear. No one dared to provoke him. After being friends with him for so long, everyone could tell that he was currently in a bad mood. In the other private room, Dexie was very surprised
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 181
Paloma's voice seemed to convey a strange sense of satisfaction. When Dexie heard it, she had a feeling that something was wrong. However, she couldn't pinpoint exactly what it was.She lifted the cup indifferently and clinked glasses with Paloma. When the other people in the room saw how cooperative Dexie was, they smiled disdainfully. They seemed to mock her cowardice.Dexie seemed to bring the wineglass to her lips. Even Paloma was watching with great anticipation. However, as the glass touched her lips, Dexie paused. Paloma frowned. She chuckled coldly and asked Dexie, "What's wrong? Are you worried that there's something wrong with this wine?"As she said this, she took the wineglass in her hand and took a sip right in front of Dexie. She chuckled and said, "See? There's nothing wrong with this glass of wine!"Dexie finally relaxed. Paloma's actions were quite peculiar. She had no choice but to be on guard.Dexie regained the glass and spoke to Paloma coldly. "I don't care what ga
