"Yanni.""Yanni..." Ella called out.…How could Yanni possibly resist? She confirmed with Ella, "Just one night?"Ella gave a serious but childlike promise. Her voice was soft and sweet, "Daddy will take me to kindergarten tomorrow morning."Yanni relaxed a bit. She could handle it if it was just one night. She had something she wanted to say to Keaton anyway. So, she looked at him while holding Ella, "Come upstairs for a cup of coffee."Keaton stood there in the darkness, and his gaze was unfathomably deep. After a moment, he walked over and gently took Ella into his arms. Keaton and Yanni walked side by side toward the entrance. The soft light above them cast a warm glow, making them look just like a family of three.…Ella was exceptionally well-behaved. As soon as they arrived at the apartment, she found a small desk and started on her homework. The sight of her little figure made Yanni’s heart soften.Yanni was preparing coffee for Keaton. She couldn't resist the quest

Yanni felt completely seen through by Keaton. He knew her too well. His pursuit was indeed intimidating. It wasn’t every day someone laid out eight billion dollars so openly. Jamie had mentioned that a man like Keaton was too aggressive and that his naive sister wouldn’t be able to handle it. Yanni didn’t want to conquer anyone. Keaton was like a puzzle to her. She was tempted to unravel his secrets and see how many more ways he had to charm a woman.Yanni admitted that she was somewhat smitten by Keaton. Thankfully, Ella was there. Otherwise, she couldn’t guarantee that they wouldn’t cross boundaries or take things too far. Keaton and Yanni had physical needs, but starting a physical relationship so casually felt too impulsive for her. She wanted to properly nurture their emotional connection as well.That night, Ella stayed over. Keaton left late in the night. Yanni woke in the middle of the night. The sound of the rain tapping against the window kept her awake. Each drop w

Emilia wasn't excessively arrogant. She knew better than to offend the Lockwood family, especially given the influence of Lockwood Pharmaceutical Group and Jamie. Her manipulation of Gael was successful because Yanni was willing to let him go."I was quite happy with Carter at the beginning. His family was well-off. After two years of marriage, however, I realized how insignificant my so-called happiness was. Carter’s salary of 8,000 dollars a month was nothing compared to the wealth of the truly rich."There was a time I went to pick up Carter and witnessed him being publicly humiliated over a business deal. His clients forced alcohol down his throat. They even threw money on him for amusement."At that moment, I deeply felt the sorrow of being Carter’s wife. I also saw the perverted pleasure of the wealthy.”…Emilia took a deep breath and continued, her words shocking. “That man was a local wealthy second-generation. His family fortune was immense. "He took an interest in me.

Yanni was certain Keaton was doing it on purpose, but she didn’t want him to think she was overly affected by the kiss. She kept her tone light and casual, “Ella is very well-behaved.”Keaton chuckled again. His voice was filled with amusement.“You were very well-behaved too,” he replied. “You kept holding onto my shirt during the kiss, Yanni. When you touched the back of my neck, I heard you softly call my name.”…Just as Yanni was about to lose her temper, Keaton backed off. “Actually, I called to invite you to a gala. It’s organized by the city’s chamber of commerce, and I’ve heard it’s quite a grand event.”Attending a gala? Yanni hesitated. Keaton added cheerfully, “There will be a few of our former classmates there. You know them.”Yanni mulled it over and agreed to go.…At the same time, Emilia and Gael were in a hotel suite. They had just had intense sex, and she lay sweaty and relaxed in his arms.Emilia gently caressed Gael's shoulders. “I really want to stay like

Gael never expected to run into Yanni in the ballroom of the Regent Hotel during the weekend. When he saw her, she was holding a glass of red wine and exchanging pleasantries with some old men. Yanni was the center of attention at the banquet due to her family background and her own abilities. People approached her constantly, hoping to make connections. However, Yanni politely declined them one by one.Of course, Yanni looked stunning tonight. She was dressed in a white silk gown, which perfectly hugged her graceful curves. A pair of four-carat diamond earrings adorned her earlobes, making her jade-like face all the more radiant and elegant.Gael was momentarily lost in thought. He even murmured her name, "Yanni."Emilia stood nearby, and she was extremely displeased. Gael was obviously trying to stir up trouble. However, she wasn’t too bothered. After all, he and Yanni were divorced. Even if he wanted to reconcile, Yanni would never agree!Emilia deliberately clung to Gael's ar

Yanni was only concerned about one thing—Ansley. Just as she was going to ask about the little girl's whereabouts, Keaton approached. He was dressed in a black tuxedo. Since he possessed an outstanding appearance, he stood out in the crowd.Keaton came closer and thoughtfully draped a shawl over Yanni's shoulders. Then, he smiled slightly. “Are you finished chatting with George?”Yanni responded softly, "Yeah." She gently grasped the shawl, inadvertently pressing her delicate fingers against Keaton's palm. At that moment, his brow relaxed, and his gaze toward Yanni was deep and intense.They both recalled the intimacy they shared in the car. Yanni was forced to tilt her head back. Her fingers searched for a place to rest before finally settling on the man's shoulder. However, Keaton quickly captured her hand and guided it to his face. Then, he guided her to slowly trace his chiseled features.Keaton let Yanni's fingers linger particularly long on the bridge of his nose. The sensa

Gael’s voice trembled, “Wedding gift? Who is he to you, Yanni?”Yanni sneered, “Does it have anything to do with you? Also, please refer to me as Dr. Yanni or Ms. Yanni from now on, Mr. Gael.”What she said hit Gael hard. “So, I can never call you by your first name again. Is that right?”Yanni’s response was firm. “Yes!”At the next moment, Gael’s eyes reddened. He lost all interest in the banquet and was completely shaken. However, Gael couldn’t understand why his emotions were so chaotic and miserable. After all, he and Yanni had come to an end. They were over.With that said, seeing Yanni with Keaton made him feel as though he’d been utterly betrayed. The humiliation was unbearable, and the pain was excruciating.Yanni paid no attention to Gael’s pain. She danced with Keaton, and the two of them matched perfectly. Seeing them together drove Gael mad with jealousy, but he held back his rage. After all, Ressington Tech Co.’s stock had just stabilized, and he couldn’t afford

Emilia hadn’t noticed the shift in Gael's expression, and she was still intent on pressing him about marriage.Gael's face darkened. “Get out of the car,” he ordered. Emilia froze. She was caught off guard. Gael turned to look at her. His voice was cold and devoid of any warmth. Ressington Tech Co. was the foundation of Gael's entire life. If something went wrong with the company, all of his years of effort would be for nothing. At this moment, Gael couldn’t be bothered with personal matters. Emilia finally realized the seriousness of the situation. Although she was infuriated, she chose to lower herself for the sake of her future. She even offered comforting words, “Is something wrong at the company? If so, I’ll stay with you.”Gael was irritated and overwhelmed. He snapped, “What good is you staying with me?”Emilia’s eyes welled up with tears. In the end, however, she held them back. She lifted her gown as she stepped out of the car. The moment her feet touched the ground, Ga

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. Even more delightful, she was marrying her childhood love. Dressed in a headpiece and red bridal gown, she was as beautiful as could be, the most stunning woman Zion had ever seen.The Quarto family was busy with preparations. 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. Together with Zoe, they helped with the wedding arrangements.

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
I Refuse to Divorce! Chapter 1458
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
