Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 254: Dexie's Suspicions
On the first day of the New Year, that woman sent Dexie so many text messages that if Dexie didn’t send one back, it would seem too rude.After putting a handful of freshly peeled pine nuts on the plate in front of Danny, Dexie picked up her phone and quickly typed a text message.Danny asked incoherently while eating pine nuts, “Mom, are you texting someone?”Dexie nodded and said, “Yes, just some New Year greetings.”“Oh.” Danny nodded in understanding and asked no more questions.After writing the text message, Dexie checked it again before sending it.The content of the message was: I still don’t know who you are. Is your identity too mysterious, or does Luke care little about your existence?Dexie didn’t know the woman at all; she only briefly met her last time, so she knew nothing about her.However, after many text exchanges, Dexie believed that this woman must possess a very proud personality, regardless of how much she enjoyedLuke’s ego must be deeply wounded as Dexie took o
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 255: Dexie's Search for the Key
Click.The sound of a metal collision brought Dexie back to reality in an instant.Why did she overlook the locked box?All the other boxes were unlocked, but only this box was locked.Dexie furrowed her brow. For a while, she didn’t even know what to do.Dexie wondered, Where was the key?She left the box, looked around, and searched the boxes beside her, but found nothing.She even opened drawers and various cabinet doors, but found no key.None of the other places were locked, and even some important documents from Luke’s company were unlocked. Luke simply placed them on the desk or in the cabinet.She picked up the small brass lock and looked at it again, but still found nothing.There was no key.Dexie wondered what she should do.She found the box but couldn’t locate the key. Dexie pondered, Should she take the box and leave?No, she had already aroused Luke’s suspicions the night before, and this box was special because it was the only locked one. Luke, being a shrewd individua
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 256: Luke's Kindness and Consideration
Ava gave a slight snort of anger before exclaiming, “How else could it be?” I thought it would be a good time, since that poor girl had taken that boy to lunch and the servants had been dismissed. In the study room. On New Year’s, she said she wanted to read. She must be plotting something.“Don’t worry about other people’s affairs and think of a way to get those files quickly.” The voice on the other end of the phone turned colder, and when speaking to Ava, the tone was vulgar.Ava was surprised for a moment, and a flash of hatred shone in her eyes.Since she married Victor, no one has dared to speak to her like that, except Victor and Luke.However, she did not display any signs of disgust on her face. She took a deep breath and tried to keep smiling while talking to the person on the other end of the phone. “Don’t worry, this matter pertains to my own interests, and Luke’s position is detrimental to my interests, so I know what to do.”The voice of the person on the other end of th
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 257: Paloma's Manipulation
Dexie froze for a moment, then looked at Luke with some surprise and said, “What you mean is that people there will speak ill of me?”Luke said, “With me there, no one will give you a hard time, but in case it happens, you don’t need to be polite.”Luke took Dexie’s hand with a serious expression and said, “Don’t worry, from now on, you are a member of the Huxley family, so no one will dare to give you a hard time.”Dexie took a deep breath, nodded, and said, “I see.”Danny squeezed in between them. Holding Dexie’s hand with one hand, he said seriously, “I can protect you, mommy.”The expression in his eyes was very serious and firm as he nodded.Luke glared at him and said, “Rascal, are you now competing for her affection?”Dexie rubbed Danny’s head, which felt soft. She couldn’t help but laugh and say, “I’m glad Danny behaves so well.”After receiving Dexie’s compliment, Danny had a smile on his face. He turned his head and looked at Luke with a rather smug expression, as if to expr
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 258: Hidden Agendas
Dexie’s face fell instantly. Looking at Paloma, she said in an indifferent voice:“Paloma, what mischief are you up to now? Did you forget the lesson from before?”Dexie had already taught her a lesson after the previous incident, but Paloma still had no intention of repenting at all. Dexie didn’t know why Paloma suddenly became so bold, and it was truly puzzling.“Dexie, I don’t want to harm you. I just really wanted to see you today, so please don’t reject me.” Paloma smiled and looked at Dexie with feigned sincerity, then said with a serious expression on her face: “Now you are Luke’s wife, so having a good relationship with you will benefit me. My dear sister, how could I bother you?”Paloma’s words caught Dexie a bit off guard. After a moment of silence, she looked at Paloma and said, “How did you get in?”She didn’t believe what Paloma had said. How could she make a special trip if she wasn’t trying to cause trouble? She must have an agenda.“I only knew that this was the Huxley
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 259: The Stakes Rise
As she entered the room, Paloma murmured, “Dexie, I’m just going to look at your room.”“Why are you so stingy?”The room was luxuriously decorated and fully equipped with the best facilities. Next to the bathroom and bedroom, there was a vast wardrobe filled with the most fashionable clothes, shoes, and bags, as well as limited edition luxury bags and jewelry. Her wardrobe alone was bigger than Paloma’s entire room combined. With so many limited edition luxury items, the clothes and jewelry inside were comparable to those in a luxury store. The store casually displayed rare limited edition products, rarely seen even in fashion magazines, one by one.Paloma once again felt overwhelmed by envy and resentment.When she first arrived at the Hansley family’s house, when she discovered she had such an exquisite room for the first time, she thought she had the best things in the world, and she believed that if she could live with those things, she would be the happiest girl in the world, bu
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 260: Paloma Jumps Through the Building
Paloma screamed louder and louder. If this continued, she could attract the attention of the guests. Dexie frowned and stepped forward to grab Paloma’s hand, saying, “Have you had enough? Get up quickly.”“Help-“As soon as Dexie touched Paloma, she screamed. She fought so desperately that she almost stopped Dexie.“Boom...”As Paloma frantically waved her arms, a potted plant fell from the balcony, making a crunching sound.Below the balcony, there was grass covered in snow because the building was so high, the pot still shattered into pieces.After the servant waiting below heard such a loud noise from upstairs, he hurriedly asked Dexie, “Madam? Are you okay?”Dexie frowned and didn’t know how to respond at that moment.When Paloma heard the servant below asking this, she quickly shouted, “Someone come help me! He’s going to kill me! He wants to push me down!”Dexie couldn’t take it anymore and coldly yelled at Paloma, “Shut up! Are you crazy? How could he kill you? Paloma, enough.
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 261: Don't Be Afraid, I'm Here
A bathroom and a hallway separate the study room from the balcony. The two balconies were unconnected, yet there was no balcony separating them. They were adjacent, and the distance between them was about ten meters. I didn’t know when Danny appeared or how much he had seen. My first concern was whether Danny was scared, and if that would traumatize him and worsen his autism. I didn’t even think about the fact that he could serve as a witness.Danny seemed terrified. He looked at Dexie with shock. When Dexie called him, he seemed to suddenly snap back to reality, but the next moment, he burst into tears, and his eyes were filled with fear. Dexie’s heart sank when she saw Danny was truly scared.“Danny, it’s okay. Mommy is here, so come out.” Dexie couldn’t help but feel her heart ache. She blamed herself for being too careless and scaring Danny so much.As she spoke, she hurried to the study room. Danny hid in the balcony’s corner. As he sat there, he looked at Dexie with fear and ref
