Chapter 1108

Author: Light Breeze
Late at night, Holly returned to the hotel with Ignacio. He turned off the car engine and glanced at his wife. She sat there, lost in thought, and held a delicate bag in her arms.

He knew she had met Lorian that day.

Ignacio took the bag and pretended to search through it. He said casually, "Let's see what kind of shirt you bought me today."

There were two shirts inside. One of them was in medium gray and the other in black. Both colors exuded a sense of calm and elegance.

Ignacio gazed at the shirts for a while before asking softly, "Do you like me in these colors?"

Holly snapped out of her reverie. She gently touched the fabric of the shirts and softly replied, "These colors suit you well. I noticed there weren't many like these in your wardrobe, so I bought them for you."

Ignacio smiled warmly, "I really love them! Thank you, Holly."

He pretended to open the car door as if to get out, but Holly held onto his sleeve button. She whispered, "Why did you choose to settle abroad?

    Lorian sat there in his formal attire and observed the couple quietly.He knew deep down that he couldn't change things, not even Caitlin's presence could shake Holly and Ignacio's relationship. He had accepted it in his heart, but there were still some words he wanted to say to Holly again. Perhaps he couldn't let things end like this!…Holly went to the restroom for a moment.When she came out from the stall to wash her hands, the water gushed from the golden faucet and flowed between her delicate wrists. After she finished, she closed the faucet and looked up, intending to touch up her makeup.Her gaze froze.She saw Lorian in the mirror. He leaned against the door, and his gaze was calm. She hadn't noticed when he had arrived. She hadn't even heard a sound."Congratulations to you and Ignacio," Lorian said softly while looking at her.Holly and Ignacio's wedding was set for Christmas. Considering the date, it was coming up soon. After their marriage, they would fly to Inve

    The three of them stood in silence.After a long pause, it was Holly who spoke first. She looked calmly at Tegan and said in a soft, gentle voice, "Lorian has had too much to drink. Please take care of him."Tegan was kind-hearted. She was never one to make things difficult for others. Moreover, she knew her place in Lorian's heart.Tegan nodded and watched as Holly walked past. She had never been in a relationship, but she could imagine how deeply a six-year bond could be etched into one's heart.…The long corridor was illuminated by a magnificent chandelier above. Holly's silhouette moved quietly forward. Behind her stood the man she once loved deeply. Lorian said he didn't want to make things difficult for her. He spoke of Silvercrest and their shared memories. Holly thought that no matter how unforgettable something was, it had to be buried deep in the heart and kept secret for a lifetime eventually. Those moments were vivid and glorious when she recalled them occasiona

    "Tsk tsk tsk. Just look at your self-righteous mug, Paityn," Poppy taunted. "Can you honestly say you don't like Lorian? Having the man you love become your brother-in-law. It must hurt more than dying, right?"…Paityn's expression remained unchanged. She looked down at Poppy with a slight coldness in her smile. "You're welcome to go crazy at the Sanders Villa, Poppy. The McKinney family isn't behind his decision to not marry you. If you're going to act out, don't do it at our doorstep."With that, Paityn instructed the gatekeeper to close the door. The red lacquered gate slowly shut.Poppy couldn't contain herself and rushed forward. She pounded on the gate with force and continued to hurl insults at Paityn."You hypocrite! You dare not admit you like Lorian. You dare not admit you're also discarded by him!"The gatekeeper looked uncomfortable.Paityn tilted her petite face and muttered under her breath, "She's really out of her mind!"Paityn crossed the courtyard and went

    Tegan's hand was suddenly grasped by Lorian. He hadn't fully awakened, but he could still recognize the woman in front of him. It was his new wife, Tegan. She looked beautiful today. Her eyebrows were delicately drawn, and her nose was elegantly straight. In fact, Tegan's features were very pleasing to the eye, and her figure was slender yet well-proportioned. She had everything one could desire. This was the woman he was going to spend his life with. Lorian held her wrist and gradually pulled her closer, inch by inch until she was pressed against his hot body. They were very close, and he was indeed very warm. Tegan could even feel the pounding of Lorian's heartbeat, which was forcefully pulsing against her soft palm. It was so hot that she almost wanted to run away. Tegan had never been with a man before, and the most intimate moment she had experienced was a kiss with Lorian. "Lorian," she whimpered softly. She was at a loss. Lorian wrapped his arms around Tegan's

    Back at the Sanders Group, Kris saw Lorian coming to work and was quite surprised.She blurted out, "Haven't you just got married, Mr. Lorian?"In the over one thousand square foot CEO's office, the winter sun poured in through the large windows and cast a mosaic of golden light. Lorian sat behind his desk. He looked almost divine as the radiant sunlight shone on him. He heard Kris's question and looked up. Lorian replied calmly, "I still want to personally follow up on the South Yarifa case. Prepare for a business lunch later."Kris nodded but sighed internally.What Lorian did not anticipate was running into Tegan's elder sister, Paityn, at the business club. Paityn was a strong businesswoman. She was dressed in a sharp, professional outfit. She carried a briefcase and scrutinized her new brother-in-law for a moment before speaking with a hint of irony."Am I seeing things? You've just gotten married to my sister, so what are you doing here? Are you looking for young escor

    About five minutes later, Tegan returned from the backyard. She was wearing a light gray wool coat and carrying a large bouquet of fresh flowers, which were all picked from the garden and looking vibrant. Margaret had already brought a vase the size of a large bowl.“Are you done with work?” Tegan asked Lorian the same way any newlywed wife would do. Her tone was warm and polite. Her politeness seemed a bit too formal in Lorian's eyes. He watched her as she arranged the flowers she had picked. Her overall demeanor was excellent. She radiated a gentle and warm aura.Lorian couldn’t help but recall the previous night. It had been their wedding night. Although he was drunk, he was not oblivious. He remembered every detail of their intimate moments. It was Tegan’s first time. She had tightly bitten down on his shoulder blade when he thrust into her. At that instant, Lorian had a fleeting moment of distraction. However, he was craving sex. So, he didn’t spare her any tendernes

    The bathroom was filled with steam. Tegan soaked in the hot water and quietly reflected on what had just happened. Lorian had been very gentle throughout the entire process. However, his gentleness seemed almost formulaic. It was too perfect and reminded her of a robotic husband. With that said, Tegan dared not expect too much. They were in a marriage where they weren't equals. Demanding too much would be considered unreasonable.Tegan didn't soak for long. There were still things she wanted to discuss with Lorian. Once her body felt more relaxed, she got up and wrapped herself in a white bathrobe before stepping out of the bathroom.The chandelier in the bedroom was off. Lorian had left only a reading lamp on. He was leaning against the headboard and holding his phone, giving some instructions to Kris via voice message. When he saw Tegan coming in, he wrapped up the conversation with a few simple words.Tegan took a tube of ointment and sat on the side of the bed, carefully app

    After Lorian went downstairs, the sound of a car engine starting echoed through the courtyard. The noise gradually faded into the distance until it disappeared completely.Tegan sat dejectedly on the edge of the bed. He was gone. They had agreed to visit her parents together, and he knew how important today was for her. However, he left without hesitation. Tegan understood he was busy with work, but they were newlyweds, after all.Although it was early morning, Tegan couldn't fall back asleep. She put on a robe and got up. Then, she walked to the balcony to gaze into the distance. The morning fog was thick, mirroring the confusion and helplessness in her heart.After a long time, Tegan was nearly frozen. She returned to the warm bedroom. The bed was slightly messy, and the remnants of last night's passion were still evident. However, her heart felt icy cold. Hugging her arms tightly around herself, Tegan held on as if trying to find some warmth.Margaret came upstairs from th

    In the presidential suite, the newlywed night was fiery, filled with affection and intimacy. The wedding banquet was still bustling with excitement.There was a special guest, who quietly arrived and hoped to leave just as quietly. He was afraid to disturb her mood and feared that if she saw him, she might not be pleased. However, despite his best efforts, they still crossed paths in the hallway.Gael stood quietly, watching Yanni. She had just taken Ella to the restroom, as she wasn’t comfortable leaving her alone. Besides Ella, there was another small girl with her, probably one of the twins she had with Keaton. The other twin was her brother.The twins were named Shay Bright and Drew Bright. Ella adored her younger siblings. Whenever she came home from school, she would always spend some time playing with them first. At night, she would sneak her little sister into her room and cuddle her to sleep, treating her like a little doll.At first, Yanni was quite worried, but she lat

    In the early morning, the first rays of sunlight bathed the earth, signaling a joyous occasion at the Sanders family home. The youngest daughter of Noah and Gwynn was finally getting married.

Although they were not extremely wealthy, Jordyn was a capable family head with a good reputation. He handled both inside and outside affairs with finesse and charm. To everyone’s surprise, he got along very well with Mason.However, Noah had some reservations. “Don't you have any relatives of your own, Mason?”Mason didn’t engage with his criticism.

    That night, Jamie and Paityn returned home with their daughter Carol. As soon as they arrived, Carol went to do her homework, while Paityn went to check on their youngest son, Colten Lockwood. The housekeeper was taking care of him and, upon hearing footsteps, turned her head and softly said, "Madam, you're back? He hasn't woken up at all, he's such a good boy."Paityn smiled lightly and signaled for the housekeeper to go downstairs and rest.When the door closed, she looked down at the sleeping Colten. The little one, only eight months old, resembled his father completely; almost like a miniature copy of Jamie. Even Carol, at times, would look at her brother’s face and marvel: "It’s really a masterpiece from God!"Jamie replied, "You even know what a masterpiece is?"Carol teased, "A husband’s looks are the wife’s glory!"Paityn quietly said to Jamie, “She must have seen a supermodel runway show."Jamie immediately asked, "Did she like it?"Paityn didn't answer, just smiled.

    On the second floor, Gwen was trying on her wedding dress for tomorrow. Just as Zion had wished, it was a traditional Zutriysteinian wedding.The red wedding gown was crafted by the top artisans from Zutriystein, elegant and dignified. The headpiece she wore was adorned with wild pearls; each gem was carefully embedded, and the headpiece alone cost tens of millions. A substantial amount of money had been spent.The woman in the mirror was stunningly beautiful. Gwen gently touched her headpiece and muttered to herself, "Zion really doesn’t mind spending money on this little hobby of his."Gwynn, as a mother, patted her head. "This little girl really doesn’t know when to keep quiet, but luckily, she’s married well and is right here beside me..."She had given a generous wedding gift, exactly the same as when Holly got married. Like Holly, Gwen didn’t want any shares of the Sanders Group. The money that Zion earned was enough to support both of them and his small hobbies.Meanwhile

    Ignacio said, "We can’t take care of both of you."Holly was at a loss for words.Lucius was at that lively age, but he was raised by his father and had good manners. When he saw Ocelotte, he respectfully greeted him, saying, "Second Uncle."Ocelotte patted his little head, thinking that the boy seemed sturdier than his own children, possibly because Molly was too fragile. He made a mental note to make sure Yeager got some extra nutrients when he went back.The black Rolls-Royce Phantom sped down the highway, getting them back to the Qiao family mansion before evening.The Sanders family’s sons had all moved out, leaving only Gwen still living at home. Holly, who rarely came back, was also staying at the house. She didn’t refuse, planning to stay for a few days before heading to Silvercrest to visit her biological parents and pay respects.The car pulled into the Sanders Residence, and the house was lit up brightly.In the courtyard parking area, luxury cars were parked everywhe

    In the evening, Gwen was preparing to leave work.In the parking lot, she spotted Zion’s car, but it was empty. Just then, a school leader passed by and said to her, “Zion came to school. There’s a donation ceremony happening in the auditorium. You should go check it out. "Then, you two can head home together afterward. On a cold day like this, a nice dinner would be perfect. What a cozy idea!”Gwen playfully replied, “You really know how to enjoy life.”The leader, holding a bag of groceries, laughed, “See? Your teacher’s wife has been nagging me since morning to go home and cook while babysitting the grandkids.”Gwen smiled softly, watching him leave.In the sky, clouds glowed orange and yellow, their edges tinged with gold.She carried a thermos as she walked toward the auditorium. Along the way, a few students noticed her and started chirping excitedly, cheekily calling her “Ms. Gwen.”Gwen corrected them, “It’s Ms. Gwen.”The students laughed and teased, “Ms. Gwen! Mr. Z

    Gwen stared dazedly at the man.Zion, dressed in a black coat, stood tall in the study, exuding an oppressive aura. He walked toward her and pulled the teary-eyed girl, her face streaked like a little tabby cat, into his arms. One hand gently smoothed her hair as his voice softened to the extreme, "Still saying you didn’t cry."Gwen leaned against his shoulder, mumbling, "You did it on purpose.""Are you at least a little touched?"She pounded on him twice more in response.Zion chuckled lowly, letting the girl vent while his heart ached silently.These past five years had been filled with fear and uncertainty for him. He had been afraid that before he could make a name for himself, Gwen would fall for someone else. If that happened, what could he possibly use to ask her to come back to him?The love story of a poor boy and a rich girl might've existed in novels, but the reality was often harsh.Gwen didn’t care, but he couldn’t bear to let her endure hardship.Now, as they

    Zion and Gwen's marriage seemed inevitable, with no one putting up any resistance. Occasionally, Gwen even had a strange illusion.It all went so smoothly that the years of separation seemed like they had never happened, as if she and Zion had always been together. After their reunion, he didn’t even ask her about her life abroad and treated her just as he did before.She was no longer as youthful and tender, but Zion still saw her as if she were a 20-year-old girl. Gwen felt a bit dejected, thinking to herself, he must just like girls around 18-year-old.But unfortunately, the spring river flows eastward and cannot return!Zion only smiled.In winter, the days grew shorter. After work, Gwen arrived at Zion's villa, but he had not yet come home. The two housekeepers had already started preparing dinner.When Gwen got out of the car, she received a call from Zion. Her voice was soft and tender.“When will you be back?”On the other end, Zion checked the time and said, “I’ll be

    Zion noticed Gwen gazing at him with those wide, expectant eyes again. With a chuckle, he reached into the pocket of his trench coat, pulled out a sleek wallet, and carefully extracted a platinum card. He placed it in her outstretched hand and said with a smile, “This is my secondary card. There’s no credit limit.” Gwen gasped softly, then teased, “Wow, aren’t you generous? Thank you, Teacher Qin.” Zion gave her a light tap on the head. Not missing a beat, Gwen wrapped her arms around his neck and grinned mischievously, “Thank you, my sugar daddy.” Zion’s response was to pull her close, cupping her cheeks as he kissed her fiercely. Though he once carried himself as an educator and now as a refined businessman, he found himself utterly smitten by her playful antics. After the kiss, Zion leaned close to Gwen's ear and murmured something uncharacteristically crude that sent a shiver down her spine. He playfully nipped her nose. “Turns out you’ve got a thing for bad boy
