Chapter 305: Misunderstood Luke
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56He knocked on the room’s door, but there was no movement inside, so the door opened instead. He thought Luke knew he was coming, so he opened the door and entered. But as soon as he opened the door, he saw Luke with a bath towel wrapped around his waist. He wasn’t wearing anything on his upper body, and his hair was dripping water. It seemed like he had just finished showering. He had a magnificent figure, with well-developed abs and biceps, broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and long, straight legs. With his sexy figure, he even put models to shame. It was the first time Dexie had seen his figure directly, and she covered her eyes in shock. Luke didn’t care.
He turned his head and looked at Dexie indifferently, asking, “Do you need something?” With her face turned away, Dexie said, “Put on some clothes first.”
Luke muttered, “You’ve touched me before, but now you feel embarrassed?&rd

When she thought about it this way, she sighed in relief.“There are rumors, and I heard from others,” Dexie said with a serious expression. “And... I have found evidence.”When Gavin heard Dexie say this, he became more and more puzzled and asked, “You found evidence? Mrs. Huxley, um... did someone instigate you?”Dexie shook her head and said, “No, I really found evidence.”Gavin asked, “So... what evidence did you find?”When she received a call, Dexie was about to speak when she received a call at that moment.It was a call from Noah. Although she didn’t want to answer at this moment, she was afraid that Noah might have something serious to tell her, so she answered the phone.As soon as the call connected, before Dexie could speak, Noah anxiously asked on the other end of the phone, “Dexie, where are you?”“I’m outside. What’s going on?” Dexie didn’t directly say that she was at the Huxley family’s house.“Jessebelle and I visited your apartment. We knocked on the door, but no on

“However, Mrs. Huxley spread these rumors,” Gavin said in a low voice as he approached Dexie.“Mrs. Huxley? Ava?” Dexie was surprised.Gavin nodded quickly and whispered, “Yes, it was her. The two brothers had an excellent relationship, and she is their stepmother. Although Mr. Victor Huxley adores her, she still doesn’t have any status in the Huxley family.” Her biological son worked in the Huxley family but didn’t hold a prominent position, so he wanted to an advantage of that opportunity.Upon hearing this, she realized it.As she listened to Gavin’s words, Dexie felt guilt and reproach in her heart, but...“Setting aside everything else... how do you explain this picture? Gavin, don’t lie to me about Luke.” Dexie looked at the photo again. Luke looked at Serena with such an affectionate expression and smiled so warmly. It didn’t seem like he had feelings for her.Gavin scratched his head and said, “Mrs. Huxley, how could I lie to you about such a thing? Mr. Huxley liked no woman.

Dexie looked at Gavin gratefully and said, “Gavin, this time... if I can reconcile with Luke, it will all be thanks to you.”Gavin was surprised, but then he laughed and scratched his head when she said, “Mrs. Huxley, have you thought of a way to persuade Mr. Huxley?”He seemed serene on the surface, but he was filled with joy inside. God knows how much he wanted the two of them to reconcile.Dexie nodded slightly and told Gavin, “Don’t tell him I know the truth and pretend that I know nothing. I will leave tomorrow. After I come back... I will apologize to him.”“Well, alright.” Gavin was already wondering how Dexie would apologize.Dexie went to the room where she had slept before, took a shower, and then lay down on the quilt. The more she thought about it, the more remorse she felt. Luke had been wonderful to her, but what about her? She was overwhelmed with guilt towards Luke! She didn’t trust Luke, but he was still willing to help her. Dexie sighed and told herself that from now

The woman said to Dexie, “Really? Miss Hansley... can you give me your phone number?”Seeing Dexie’s surprised expression, she laughed and said, “I think we have excellent chemistry. I have no other purpose.”Dexie smiled and said, “I didn’t mean to doubt you. Mrs. Jensen, this is my number.” As she spoke, her fingers quickly typed a series of numbers on the keyboard.Mrs. Jensen nodded, took her phone from her purse, entered Dexie’s phone number, then dialed it and said, “This is my number.”Dexie nodded and said, “Alright, Mrs. Jensen, I’ll leave first. I hope you stay healthy. I hope we can see each other again some other day.”The woman nodded and looked at Dexie with a joyful expression in her eyes as she said, “Alright, goodbye.”Dexie waved goodbye, and Mrs. Jensen also waved back. Her eyes remained fixed on Dexie after she had walked a distance.Much later, after Dexie had left, a bald man in a black suit appeared behind the woman. He had a stout figure and was around thirty y

It belonged to Jessebelle.She opened the message and read it. Jessebelle’s message said, “Dexie, did you fight with my brother?”Upon seeing this, Dexie remembered she had spoken harshly and fought with Noah when he called last night However, now was not the time to explain to Jessebelle.Dexie placed her phone in her bag and trailed Mr. Campbell to the file storage room.In the spacious room, there were countless shelves. Glass doors divided each shelf into several compartments. We placed folders between the glass doors, some of which had turned yellow.“Each shelf had seven levels. Mr. Campbell informed Dexie that the folders were well organized, with each folder prominently labeled with the date and location. Just search for them according to your birthdate or address, but since you were adopted, let’s search by your birthday.”Dexie nodded. Campbell thought for a moment and said, “You should search the top shelf and the two bottom shelves. This requires flexibility and physical s

After Mr. Campbell said this, Dexie was also surprised. She felt uneasy and asked Mr. Campbell, who was puzzled, “What do you mean by...?”Mr. Campbell shook his head and said, “Maybe I’m just overthinking things, Dexie. Maybe God wants to help you reunite with your family. Despite the loss of many items in the fire that year, the document you seek remains intact.”With that, Mr. Campbell took the document from Dexie and reread it, then said, “No problem. Although the writing has become blurry, I should still be able to read it.”After he finished speaking, he handed it back to Dexie and said, “Look to see if there are any issues.”Dexie took it from Mr. Campbell and examined it carefully again. She thought it seemed like...Dexie said, “The last digit of the phone number looks strange.”Mr. Campbell looked and said, “It looks like a 3 or an 8. It could be a 5.”He hesitated for a moment, then told Dexie, “Take a picture of all the information. This document cannot be removed. As for

Dexie said, “Mom will be back soon. Go take a nap now. When you wake up, mom will be home, okay?”Danny laughed and promised Dexie he would obediently go to bed. After hanging up the call with Danny, Jessebelle’s call came in.Jessebelle asked, “Dexie, where are you?”“I went to gather information today. Jessebelle, I might have found my biological mother.” Dexie was eager to share the news with her best friend.Jessebelle was surprised to hear this and said, “Really? That’s great, Dexie. Your life has been so tumultuous, but now you can finally meet your biological parents.”Dexie said, “I actually want to know what happened back then. I don’t know if I’m just paranoid, but I still feel like my experience is not as simple as it seems on the surface. The incident involving the burst water pipes and the fire in the treatment room a few years ago struck me as highly suspicious.”Jessebelle said, “Dexie, can you meet me and my brother?”Dexie replied, “Right now? I have to go back to the

Dexie laughed, saying, “I almost believed what you said.”Jessebelle suppressed her laughter and tried to look serious as she said, “Maybe... you could even search among the Huxley family.”Jessebelle continued, “Perhaps you could be Mr. Huxley’s illegitimate daughter and Luke’s lost sister... how ironic it would be if the lovers turned out to be siblings.”Noah couldn’t help but ask, “Jessebelle, why are you so repugnant?” Noah couldn’t bear to hear more. Dexie, who was in the middle of drinking her coffee, almost spat it out, but then she swallowed hard and almost choked.Noah quickly handed her a glass of water and a napkin. He looked at Jessebelle and said, “Dexie searching for her parents is a serious matter, how can you make it sound so... scandalous?”Jessebelle chuckled twice and looked at Dexie with some concern when she said, “Dexie, are you okay? I was just kidding, don’t choke.”Dexie finally stopped coughing and took a few sips of water. She immediately looked at Jessebel

Gavin replied, “Yes.”He felt a little confused. Outside of family gatherings, the most frequent visitors to the Huxley family were the company executives. Luke never needed to give specific instructions. However, today he gave specific instructions. Who was the guest?However, Gavin only thought about it to himself and didn’t dare say it out loud.Dexie looked at Luke with a smile on her face and said, “Can we go downstairs for breakfast now?”Luke looked at her with a bitter expression on his face as he said, “I’m in a hurry to go to the office.”“Aren’t you going to eat?” Dexie froze for a moment and inquired.Luke nodded and said, “I still have something to do in the office.”“But... I got up really early and was busy all morning,” Dexie said, raising her head in a somewhat aggrieved manner and giving Luke a pitying look. Are you truly planning to skip breakfast?Luke stopped and said, “You and Danny should eat.”When she saw him like that, Dexie knew what was on his mind. She sai

When Dexie woke up, her body ached. A nurse removed the needle from her hand and, when she opened her eyes, she asked in surprise, “Miss Hansley, are you awake?” Dexie wanted to move but had no strength left.Even after struggling for a while, she still couldn’t get up. The nurse hurriedly said, “Don’t move; I’ll get you some water and help you up.”She used cotton swabs and tape to press the needle tube she had just removed from Dexie’s hand. Dexie was leaning on soft pillows when she turned to pour water and asked, “Miss Hansley, are you hungry?”Dexie was still a bit dazed, and instead of responding to the nurse’s words, she asked, “What happened to me?” The nurse said, “You had a very high fever. Thankfully, early detection prevented disastrous consequences.”It turned out she had a fever. The day before, she went out to look for Danny and came back drenched. She felt uncomfortable and had no strength left before going to bed at night, but she didn’t expect it to be so serious. Su

Perhaps it was the serious and sincere expression in his eyes that caused Danny to look at Dexie with a hint of doubt.Dexie let out a sigh of relief, then told Danny to lie down and said, “Sleep for a while. You need more rest to get better.”Danny nodded, but he was still a little worried, so he looked at Dexie.Dexie got up, covered him with the blanket, then leaned forward and planted a kiss on Danny’s forehead. With a smile, she said, “Go to sleep. Mommy will come back to my room once you’re asleep.”Danny nodded, then closed his eyes and fell asleep.After closing his eyes for a moment, as if he were still worried, he opened his eyes and looked at Dexie again.He felt relieved to see Dexie still looking at him with a smile.Dexie smiled and said, “Go to sleep.”Danny nodded. Dexie stroked the bed covers over him while humming a lullaby. Danny was exhausted, so he soon fell asleep.After Danny fell asleep, Dexie let out a sigh of relief and stood up.After experiencing intense an

She was busy in the kitchen. After preparing the food, she went upstairs to see if the doctor had finished bandaging him. As soon as she exited the kitchen, she witnessed Gavin dismissing the doctor. Only a nurse remained at home. Tears welled up in Amelia’s eyes as she listened to the doctor’s instructions.Dexie hurried upstairs to see if Danny had woken up.This time, Victor was guarding Danny. He seemed to wait for Dexie. He looked at Dexie coldly and said in a frosty tone, “Miss Hansley, put the things at the door and let the servants in later to deliver them.”He addressed her as Miss Hansley in a polite and distant tone.Dexie had a terrible feeling in her heart and said, “Mr. Huxley, I know you must hate me now, but Danny has a special condition and cannot eat when someone else feeds him. It’s better to let me in. After he recovers, you can deal with me.”Her voice was very hoarse.As she descended the mountain today, she was shouting Danny’s name and crying uncontrollably. Th
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 319: Danny is Injured
Dexie clenched her teeth and gazed in her direction. At that moment, she couldn’t be overly aggressive. Everyone believed she was the one who made Danny flee and sustain injuries. They and Luke might not let her in if she was too confrontational now. She believed she couldn’t take any chances.Dexie took a deep breath and looked at Ava. After trying to calm down, she said to Ava, “Mrs. Huxley, we can discuss who would be responsible later. Luke won’t let me off easily, so don’t stand in my way. I want to go in and see how Danny is. Since there are so many people inside, I can’t do anything to help Danny. I just want to see him. Besides, you have no right to stop me.”Ava scoffed at Dexie and said, “I am Danny’s grandmother and a member of the Huxley family, so why don’t I stop you? You are not welcome here and cannot enter under any circumstances. Luke also told you to leave. Now that Danny has been found, why are you still here?”Dexie was about to speak when the room’s door opened.

Dexie took a deep breath, climbed the stairs, and left her bag in the room. She put on a pair of sturdy, non-slip snow boots and a thick down jacket, then grabbed her thermos and headed out the back door where Danny had also left.The warm water was for Danny to drink. When they found him, he would probably want to drink water.Dexie took a flashlight just in case, then went out the door.She was very careful as she walked along the road. She scrutinized the ground for footprints and the branches on either side for any clues left by Danny.Even though she was anxious, she needed to calm down. Finding Danny was the most important thing.After walking for a few minutes, she saw two small paths in front of her. Suddenly she froze in place and hesitated.She wondered, Which path did he take?Although Danny had autism, he was smarter and more contemplative than normal children. Dexie felt she couldn’t try to understand based on common sense, but should think, if I were Danny... what would

As soon as Ava’s voice lowered, Dexie glanced at Gavin and asked, “How is the search going? Has Danny left this mountain?”Gavin looked at Luke and saw that he was still expressionless. He sighed and, without hiding it anymore, said, “We sent people to search and sent a drone, but... Danny is nowhere to be found. They have checked several checkpoints at the exit and consulted with the security guards. Danny never... Unless Danny escaped by climbing a wall at the foot of a mountain, he must still be on the mountain.”After Gavin’s statement, Dexie became even more concerned. She frowned and asked, “Are there no surveillance cameras? Look for surveillance footage and see what happened.”Gavin sighed and said, “except inside and outside the mansion, only a few mountain paths have cameras.” There aren’t many trails, and the nature of the mountain makes it impossible to install surveillance cameras everywhere.Dexie inquired once more, “What is the duration of his absence?”Gavin said, “It

After Dexie spoke with Jessebelle and Noah, it was almost three-thirty. Seeing the time, she said, “It’s time for me to go back.”Noah said, “Alright, be careful and understand that your own safety is the most important, no matter what happens.”Dexie nodded and said, “I know.”Dexie had only driven a few hundred meters after parting ways with the siblings.Gavin called. Dexie was in a positive mood, so she answered the phone and asked with a smile, “Gavin, since you’re calling me now, could it be that you found something in the investigation?”Dexie was in a positive mood, but Gavin said with a desperate voice, “Ma’am, please come back soon. Danny is missing.”“What?” Dexie’s tone changed, and her heart started beating wildly.“Danny ran away on his own. We’ve been searching for a long time, but we still haven’t found him. Even though it’s not snowing, the outside temperature is extremely low, and the road remains icy. There are mountain roads outside, so I’m afraid that Danny might

Danny’s expression was angry, and he frowned as he said, “Mom said she would be home before 3 o’clock. She broke her promise.”Ava sighed, with a look of distress on her face, and said, “Really? How could she break her promise? That’s unacceptable!”Danny seemed even more upset when he heard Ava’s words and said in a plaintive tone, “Mom promised me, so why hasn’t she come back? Did she fight with dad again?”Ava sighed and said, “She might not return, but she might have promised to be home before 3 o’clock just to console you.”I heard she promised you yesterday, but then she disappeared. She may have returned out of sympathy after seeing your tears. Danny, don’t feel too sad about it. Even if she’s not here, I can love you.”Danny shook his head with a look of grievance and said, “No, I want mom.”Ava repeated, “But... she’s not coming back, are you going to go out looking for her?”After hesitating for a while, Danny said calmly, “I... want to call mom.”Ava sighed and told Danny,
