Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 205
She didn’t dare release the beans in front of Luke because she didn’t want him to have something against her. She was quite cunning.Dexie asked through clenched teeth, “What exactly do you want?”Paloma said, “I have a broken heart now, so I want to be happy.”Dexie asked patiently, “Then, how can you be happy?”“If my wedding with Oswin is not ruined, and if you will kneel in front of me and admit your mistake, if you ensure that the Huxley family never suffers because of me, maybe, I will be a little happier.”After Paloma finished speaking, she chuckled twice, as if she were extremely joyful.Her laughter made Dexie’s face fall instantly.She said coldly, “Paloma, what are you talking about? You’re delirious!”“Dexie, you asked me yourself, why are you saying I’m delirious now?” On the other end of the phone, Paloma chuckled and said, “If you don’t want to, it’s fine. Go find your poor parents on your own.”Dexie felt shocked and angry, and Eric’s expression was even more furious.

Dexie suppressed the anger and anxiety in her voice and asked Paloma as calmly as possible, "What do you want me to do?"Paloma said, "I know Lukey and Eric are there right now, so I won't tell you anything."Paloma's voice was no longer hysterical. She said, "Dexie, it wasn't me who took them, and you've already cornered the Hansley family," with a calm and indifferent air. No matter how you threaten me, it's useless. I'm just a pawn in someone else's plan, so you don't need to think about asking them for help. I know Mr. Huxley and Eric will allow you to try to find out their whereabouts and tell you not to act alone but to think for yourself. Even if you kill me now, it will be useless because you won't be able to find your parents anymore, so you know what to do."With that, Paloma hung up the phone.Dexie was stunned. She felt bewildered by how unconcerned Paloma was. Confused, she tried calling Paloma again, but Paloma's phone was turned off.Luke said, "Don't worry, my subordin

Dexie froze for a moment and looked at the text message, somewhat astonished. Despite her confusion, she immediately put on an indifferent expression, put away her phone, and accompanied Eric and his parents to the living room.Eric asked, “Mom, Dad, are you both okay? Who took you both?”Howard William said, “It was a young man. He said he was a friend of Dexie.”Howard seemed very honest. Probably because his family was poor, and he had been doing forced labor all year, he had many wrinkles on his face. He looked at Dexie and said cautiously, “Dexie, did you send someone to pick us up?”Dexie was frozen for a moment. She didn’t want to scare her parents, so she nodded and said, “Yes, but I will call ahead if I send someone to pick you up again in the future. Right now, Eric has also scolded me for my carelessness and negligence.”When the two elders heard this, they both looked at Eric, a little dissatisfied. Howard immediately said, “Eric, how can you sell your sister?”Tara Lauren

Thinking that Luke already had a fiancée, Dexie slept a restless night. This time, her parents were whisked away, and Dexie also received a threatening message. It was the work of Luke’s fiancée. Perhaps she wanted to intimidate her a little.Dexie didn’t know who she was, but she must be the heiress of a distinguished family.What about her?What happened between them that night was only because someone set a trap for Luke, and Eleanor set a trap for her.Dexie was distressed and couldn’t fall asleep, so she prepared breakfast. After breakfast, she would return to the residence. She would spend New Year’s with the two eldest members of the William and Eric families. That would be the right choice.She got up and washed, then went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. While cooking porridge, she heard a woman’s voice from the kitchen door. “Isn’t it, Miss Hansley? Why did you get up so early?”Dexie turned around and saw Ava, Luke’s stepmother. She was luxuriously dressed and seemed ou

Dexie furrowed her brow, and after seeing the brand, she was surprised.These were the top three lipstick-producing companies?She was even more surprised. She quickly scanned the contents and finally looked at the inscription. Then, with a shocked expression on her face, she asked, “You... acquired the lipstick divisions of these three companies?”“Yes,” Luke pretended to act distant and casual, but his eyes couldn’t help but look at Dexie to observe her expression.“You...” Dexie was astonished and didn’t even know how to respond.When Luke saw Dexie’s expression, he wondered, Maybe Anna’s method worked? However, she didn’t look happy.Luke feared she didn’t understand the situation, so he added, “Don’t women like lipstick? Then I’ll give them to you!”Dexie’s eyes landed on the name of the purchaser. It was his name, and the identification number was also his.“You...” Dexie seemed to be at a loss for words as she said, “Buy a lipstick company and give it to me?”“Don’t you like it

A black Maybach exited the villa’s driveway. Luke was cursing inwardly.It was freezing outside; the temperature was minus eight degrees, and the snowfall was getting heavier. No one was on the road.Luke was inexplicably a little nervous. Dexie was terrified of the cold, and her hands and feet were always cold when she was outside. Although it hadn’t been long since they met, Luke remembered that.What would happen if she stayed outside on such a snowy day?After twenty minutes, he drove towards the bustling city but still didn’t see Dexie.Paying attention to both sides of the road, he didn’t drive fast, but he didn’t encounter a single pedestrian.He felt that something was wrong. There was no way Dexie could have walked so fast. Did a passing car pick her up?Very few cars were in this area, so it was even more unlikely that a private vehicle would pick up a stranger during such heavy snowfall. Taxis were also unlikely to come here.He called Melvin and asked him to check. Gavin w

Luke was paralyzed for a moment. He was a little frustrated but also distressed. What’s wrong with her? Even in her semi-conscious state, she insisted she didn’t want to go back to the Huxley family. What’s going on? After her parents returned safe and sound last night, she changed. She became depressed, so what was happening?Luke was very puzzled but didn’t ask further. Since she didn’t want to go home, they went to a hotel. He made a call to Gavin, who hurriedly said, “The hotel in the center of The Huxley Group just prepared a room for Miss Hansley so you can bring Miss Hansley.”“I see. Call a doctor and wait at the hotel. She seems to suffer from hypotherdexia, so she might have a fever.”After hanging up the phone, Luke focused on driving and increased the car's speed. Finally, after a little over half an hour, they arrived at the hotel.Dexie was still dazed. Luke hugged her and found she was trembling. Her body was also surprisingly hot to the touch. Luke wondered what was ha

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
