Chapter 281: Did You Miss Me?
Dexie furrowed her brow and opened the box Luke had sent her. This time, there were no precious jewels in the box, just the cap of a wine bottle. She frowned. How come the cap on this wine bottle seemed so familiar?
She remembered. This was the wine bottle he had given her when he delivered wine to Barrington Manor the first time she met Luke. She and Luke only met because of the wine. Inside was a handwritten note from Luke. There were two sentences written on it.
The second day after I left, I missed you. Would this old thing miss me, too? Dexie couldn’t help but feel her heart soften, but still thought, So what?
If nothing had happened that night, maybe she would have never met Luke and never had to endure such pain. She closed the box with a loud thud and tossed the cap straight into the trash.
She could no longer be kind. After taking a deep breath, she was about to turn around and leave when Luke calle

Dexie felt heartbroken, tears streaming down her face. Seeing her desolate appearance, Jessebelle felt sympathetic. She looked at Dexie with a sense of guilt and said, “Dexie, I’m sorry, but this evidence is very conclusive. However, you have already fallen in love with him, haven’t you?”Unable to respond, Dexie remained silent.Jessebelle asked, “So, Dexie, what are your plans?”Dexie shook her head and said, “I’m not sure, but when Luke returns, I will lay everything on the table with him.”Jessebelle asked, “Do you mean you will reveal everything we have found?”Dexie nodded. “Are you crazy? If he really is a killer, and you reveal you know what he did, do you think you can still come out alive?” Jessebelle asked.Dexie said, “Jessebelle, I believe Luke won’t harm me.” However, she was unsure as she spoke. She had once believed it, but at this moment, she no longer felt certain.“Dexie, I told you a long time ago that Luke was the killer. If Luke failed to secure Serena’s hand in

Dexie nodded and asked Noah, “Is the mark of the ocean heart the same as that of the city?”Noah nodded and said, “This is a niche mark. There are only two stores in Xeston. One of them is in the city. Their service is excellent, and no matter how many years have passed, there would still be records of the things purchased, so let’s ask if there are any clues. If the store can’t find the information, I’ll use some connections.”Dexie nodded, parked the car in the mall garage, and sat in Noah’s car. They drove to the jewellery store.It was a high-end jewellery store. The people inside were well-dressed, and since Noah used to report on financial news, several store employees hurried to assist.Noah sat on the couch and waited. Jessebelle and Dexie pretended to be fascinated by the jewellery. First, each chose two pieces of jewellery. Then, Dexie pretended to be dissatisfied and tried on several necklaces in succession.One of the store employees noticed Dexie had already ordered two o

Noah looked at Dexie with a stern and serious expression on his face as he said, “Dexie, with your personality, if you see him, you will definitely expose yourself, but if Luke was truly a killer, and you left him, finding out that you know everything about what he did, for the sake of reputation, do you think... you would still be safe?”Noah’s expression was very solemn and grave as he looked at Dexie. Dexie couldn’t help but feel upset. Looking at Noah, she was speechless for a moment.“Dexie, listen to my brother. Think of an excuse to move out first, then think of a way to go abroad for a period.”Jessebelle said angrily, “We have evidence, so even if it’s the Huxley family, the Claire family will try to seek justice. We can’t let him be above the law.”Upon hearing Jessebelle’s statement, Dexie anxiously inquired, “Is it workable?” The Claire family is up against the Huxley family; that’s like throwing straws against the wind. How can you? ..”Jessebelle said, “Why not? Luke is

The woman saw that she didn’t know what to say, so she laughed and said, “Miss Hansley, you don’t have to console me. Some things are unavoidable, so it’s preferable to hold on to them. Pain is a type of life experience. I prefer to feel the pain than to forget it.”Her words surprised Dexie for a moment, then she sighed and nodded her head as she said, “Your words make sense.”As if she were thinking about something, she looked at the woman in front of her with curiosity and said, “But... how do you know that my last name is Hansley?”The lady pointed to the words on the tombstone when she said, “The name of the son above should be your father, right? So I assumed that your last name is Hansley.”Dexie froze for a moment, then came back to her senses and said, “Yes, but I wonder how I should address you.”The woman was moment
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 286: Dexie, Are You Scared?
He gasped as he kissed her with intense fervor, as if he had been suppressing his love sickness and missing her all this time. He held her tightly as he kissed her predominantly, as if he wanted to become one with Dexie.He sealed Dexie’s lips so tightly that she couldn’t open her mouth, making it difficult for her to breathe.She wanted to push Luke away, but Luke’s passion seemed contagious. At one point, she felt as if her whole body had weakened. Her body softened, and she felt dizzy.After a long time, as if fearing she couldn’t breathe, Luke reluctantly pulled away from her lips, then kissed her on the cheek while embracing her shoulders.Dexie regained her senses. She reached out to push Luke away and murmured, “Luke, let go of me.”Her voice was hoarse and gasping, so at this moment, it sounded as if she was timidly tempting him. Luke let out a growl and sealed her lips again with a kiss.“Let go of me, Luke.”Luke’s movements startled her a bit, and she immediately broke down

He seemed surprised and puzzled. After saying this sentence, as if still feeling incredulous, he asked again in a deep voice, “What’s wrong with you? Why are you afraid of me?”Dexie stammered, “I...”For a while, she was speechless and couldn’t respond to him.She wondered, What should she say?She wondered, Should she confess?No, that wouldn’t work.However, her body was trembling uncontrollably, and she looked absolutely terrified, as if she would burst into tears the next moment.Her reaction left Luke extremely puzzled.He wondered why the person he loved the most, the person he deeply cared about, the person he did everything to bring the best things in the world to, would be afraid of him.At its core, this type of fear had deep roots.He wondered, What the hell had happened? He had just left for a few days, so why did Dexie turn like this?This differed completely from Gavin’s report.Luke, don’t ask anymore. I beg you, go back to your room. I’m fine. I don’t want to see you
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 288: Exposing Everything Out
Despite her best efforts, her sense of rationality vanished, and she completely forgot all of Noah’s words to her. She looked at Luke with extreme coldness and hostility in her eyes. There was an indescribable pain, sadness, and resentment in her eyes, as if she were extremely disappointed with Luke.At that moment, Luke suddenly felt a little scared. His heart ached, as if something was stabbing it. This kind of pain filled him with distress. Luke frowned and looked at her incredulously as he asked, “What did you find?” His tone was both solemn and puzzled.“I found out your secret. Luke, I know all the things you did. I also know who you liked.”“At first, I didn’t want to say anything and just planned to leave quietly, but I didn’t expect you to come back so early. However, since things have come to this, I will.” I’ll say what I have to say, and there’s no need to hide it anymore. Just tell th

After finishing reading the letter, he frowned and looked at Dexie with a suspicious expression. He forced a smile and said, “Did you see these things, so you thought she liked me? Did you see this photo?”“Not only did I see that photo, I saw everything. Every word and every gift showed how much you liked her,” Dexie entered the study and closed the door. At the moment, she no longer cared. If Luke admitted everything in person, maybe she would give up.Luke frowned and said, “Dexie, what are you thinking? I didn’t send these things.”“You didn’t send it? I have already investigated the matter. The jewelry store even has sales records.” They said, “My husband, Mr. Huxley, bought it a few years ago!”With tears flowing, Dexie walked towards him step by step while saying, “Luke, if you admit it, I may not be so upset, but... I already found out the truth, so why do you keep denyi
