I Refuse to Divorce! Chapter 1277
In the early morning, Yanni was awakened by Keaton's kiss. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw him looking fresh and clean in a white tracksuit. Beads of sweat glistened on his brows. It seemed like he had been exercising in the home gym for quite some time.Yanni couldn't help but think about how Keaton had been sweating profusely several times last night. Wasn't he tired? The thought made Yanni blush. Keaton seemed to guess what she was thinking. He leaned against the headboard and smiled gently. He reached out to caress her alluring cheeks and murmured, “What made you think I had enough?”Yanni dared not listen any further and feigned indifference. “I have to get up for work.” As she began to sit up, Keaton gently pressed down her arms.Keaton's grip wasn't strong. It was more imbued with affection. His gaze was deep and loving. “The snow hasn't stopped all night, and there's a layer of fresh snow outside. Do you want to take a day off?”Yanni looked outside. The world

Yanni laughed sarcastically, “Isn’t this your own choice, Gael? How many times have we fought because of Emilia? Also, how many times have you neglected to come home because of Emilia? Now, you’ve finally married her. So, why aren’t you satisfied?”Besides, Yanni had reminded Gael to investigate thoroughly before making any commitments. However, he insisted on going his own way. At that time, Gael had countered Yanni's concerns by asking why she always targeted Emilia. What more could Yanni say? Everything was willingly accepted by Gael.After finishing, Yanni tried to push Gael away. However, Gael wouldn’t let go, and he still trapped her body. His gaze shifted from hatred to gentle warmth, as if the two of them had returned to their best times. His voice was hoarse, “Let’s start over, Yanni.”Yanni stared at Gael as if he were a lunatic. After a long pause, she managed to squeeze out a sentence. “If you’re sick, go get treated, Gael. Don’t go crazy in front of me! We’re divorc

Yanni received a package at 5:00 pm. When Nylah handed it over, she wore a mysterious expression. “It's a same-city delivery from Mr. Keaton, Ms. Yanni. I bet it’s a super sexy nightgown inside!”Yanni was quite speechless. “What on earth do you think about all day?” As she opened the box, it turned out not to be a sexy nightgown at all, but a bank transfer slip. The sender was Keaton, and the amount was an astonishing 9.6 billion dollars.Nylah stood beside her, and she was stunned. “Ms. Yanni, this… Mr. Keaton is really generous, isn’t he?”…Yanni knew about the money in advance, but she was still stunned. Even for a wealthy family like the Lockwood family, producing hundreds of millions of dollars was no small feat, especially as a generous gift from someone like Keaton.Last time, Keaton had referred to it as a wedding gift.Wedding gift, he said.Yanni couldn’t help but think back to when she married Gael. The wedding gift he had given was two million dollars, which was a

Yanni leaned against the desk, lightly tracing the surface with a slender finger as she smiled softly. “In about 40 minutes! Keaton and Ella are here with me.”“That's good! Drive carefully on the way.”“I know.”…After hanging up the phone, Jamie saw Mason approaching with an eager expression. “What did Yanni say?”Jamie fiddled with his phone, and his tone was indifferent. “They'll be home in 40 minutes! She's with Keaton and that little kid of his. I heard that the little girl is the daughter of Keaton's older brother.”Mason nodded. “Well, that doesn't make Yanni a stepmother! Besides, that little girl is adorable. Not to mention, Yanniy and even Zoe would really like her. They've only met a couple of times, and Zoe already keeps asking when you’re getting married and having kids.”Jamie was over 30 years old. However, there was still no sign of a family lineage in the Lockwood family. Mason and Zoe pretended not to be anxious, but deep down, they were concerned. They had

After a long pause, Keaton looked at Gael and said faintly, "Of course, Ella is my sister-in-law’s daughter. What, do you need to see a birth certificate?"Gael laughed, "The woman's name is Denise Wagner, right? What was she to you before she became your sister-in-law?""Just a college classmate," Keaton replied. He wasn't willing to engage with Gael, who he considered a lost cause. He opened the backseat door again and gestured for Yanni to get in. No matter how many doubts she might still have, Yanni wouldn’t voice them in front of Gael. She bent down and got into the car without a second thought."Yanni," Gael shouted angrily, "If you choose him today, you’ll regret it in the future."Yanni sat inside the dim car, and her face was unusually gentle. She tilted her head and looked at her former lover. She said softly, "Gael. Even if I don’t end up with Keaton, I won’t rekindle things with you. We’re over."Gael's face turned ashen.Keaton's expression wasn’t much better. Afte

As dusk settled in, a subtle warmth stirred between Keaton and Yanni.A servant stepped out from the entrance and happened to witness this tender moment. She said playfully, "You two are so loving, Ms. Yanni and Mr. Keaton! It’s cold out, you two should hurry inside."Yanni smiled gently. Keaton retrieved the gifts from the trunk and walked side by side with her. The servant followed behind, and she couldn't help but admire how well-matched they looked together, especially with Keaton's striking handsomeness. She felt genuine joy for Yanni in her heart.Only someone like Keaton was worthy of the Yanni.…Keaton’s maturity and steadiness, coupled with Ella's cuteness and charm, easily won over the Lockwood family. Even the ever-critical Jamie got along well with Keaton, which was rare. He even went so far as to offer to take Ella to his room to wash her hands before dinner. Astonishingly, he gifted her one of his prized figurines.Mason found this surprising. He leaned over an

The snow fell soundlessly.On the cold winter night, Yanni sat quietly in the car, blinking softly. Her mind was blank, and there was no room for thoughts. She could only watch outside and looked at the woman named Denise.Yanni's instincts told her that Denise’s relationship with Keaton was far from simple. His expression was filled with pain and confusion. It made that clear. If Yanni hadn’t fallen for Keaton, she would have left by now. Her life had no space for risk or heartache. However, she had fallen for him. She couldn’t bring herself to leave, not when happiness seemed so close and within her grasp.The difference in temperature between inside and outside fogged the car windows, casting Denise's silhouette in a hazy blur. Soon, she approached the car. Her movements were so familiar and natural. She opened the door with ease and called out softly, "Keaton."The rush of cold air filled the car, and it was sharp enough to stir Ella awake. She blinked her large eyes groggily

Years later, Denise returned without any warning. It was completely unexpected.…Pale blue smoke lingered between them before it was melted by the falling snow. Keaton stared at Denise with a trace of bloodshot red in his eyes. Every time Keaton saw Denise, he couldn’t help but think of Callan, who was gentle and kind-hearted. He pondered on how love had tortured Callan to death. When he spoke, his voice trembled slightly, “Why have you come back?”The light snow fell on Denise’s shoulders, highlighting her red lips and white teeth. It made her beauty seem almost bewitching. She looked at Keaton and smiled softly, “Of course, I’ve come back to see you and Ella. You two are the only family I have left in this world.”Keaton scoffed, “Is that so?” He had no desire to be involved with Denise, but she was Ella’s biological mother. If she insisted on taking Ella away, it would be a battle he’d have to fight hard. Although he never wanted to see Denise again, he had to tolerate her pr

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. A traditional Chinese wedding was far more elaborate than a Western one, but thankfully, the families had enough help to avoid any chaotic moments.During the d

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
