I Refuse to Divorce! Chapter 181
Zoe went to pick up Ella from the hospital.The chauffeur had just pulled over when someone opened the car door. Zoe was surprised to see who it was.It was Leslie.Standing in the snow, he looked disheartened. Zoe didn’t know what to say when she saw Leslie again, so she sat quietly in the car.In the end, Leslie was the one who spoke first. “We need to talk, Zoe!”…Zoe sat in a coffee shop by the street and looked at the snow piling up outside through the glass, all the while stirring her coffee absentmindedly.Leslie asked, “Is she doing well?”Snapping out of her reverie, she looked at him. He was still dressed nicely and looked impeccable. There was a pack of cigars in his hand, but he didn’t smoke any because it was a non-smoking coffee shop. It was obvious he was kind of irritated.She stopped stirring and took a sip of the coffee. She didn’t raise her eyes. Instead, she kept her eyes on her coffee and said, “Every time I drank coffee with Ella, she’d say that she

David chuckled, “The audience really likes us. The tickets for the show at Hucksburgh were sold out last night.”Zoe was pleasantly surprised. She gave it some thought and said, “How about we hit the road tomorrow?”David couldn’t resist making some jokes at her expense.Ella was happy for her as well. “I’m fine! Go ahead and work on your career. Also, send my thanks to Mason!” She held Zoe tightly. “Live a happy life with him if he treats you well! Let the past stay in the past.”Zoe responded with a husky voice, “Gotcha!”They looked at each other and smiled with tears in their eyes, reminiscent of a simpler time that they shared when they were young.…Zoe left Ella’s place and got into the car. The chauffeur could tell she was in a cheerful mood. He leaned over and asked, “Are we going back to the manor, Ms. Zoe?”Leaning on the seat, she booked a flight ticket to Hucksburgh for herself and sent a text to Mason. It read, “Come home early tonight. I have something to tel

Zoe raised her eyes and stared directly at Mason. His eyes were inscrutable in the dim light. She simply couldn’t tell what was on his mind!After a brief pause, he asked softly, “Did you see it?”Pointing at the documents on the floor, she shook uncontrollably. “Did you hire a bunch of shrinks to study me and advise you on how to deal with me? Just what do you think I am, Mason? Am I just another plaything? You said you loved me. Is this what you call love? Hiring ten shrinks to analyze me like I’m some kind of weirdo?“You bought a dog to please me! Here I am, thinking that you did it because you knew what I liked. It turns out it was all a ploy devised by a team of shrinks! The puppy was nothing but a tool!“Everything you did for me was a calculated step in your game. You even planned out when you were going to have sex with me!“You robbed me of my privacy and my pride, Mason! You don’t love me. You merely wanted to own me in your perverted way! You don’t know how to love any

Her bathrobe was pulled wide open as she lay on the desk in the study, the fluorescent light illuminating her smooth and fair skin. Mason held tight to her slender waist and smacked her hips. He sneered, “Now, I’m going to show you how I treat a plaything!”Her face paled. She couldn’t get away from him. Under the fluorescent light, she was at his mercy as he thrust into her roughly. He was treating her in ways that not even the cheapest escorts deserved.The light was blinding. Her body was subjected to immense pain, but it was nothing compared to what she was feeling in her heart. Gripping the edges of the desk, she withstood his furious humping with every bit of energy in her.There was a small, hard thing in her hands and it was scraping her palm.She turned her head to the side and released her grip when she could no longer take his brutal thrusts. There was a pair of exquisite cufflinks in her sweaty palm, its radiant diamond was bloodied now.It was her own blood.…

It was close to noon by the time the servants found Zoe in the study.It was day, but the lights were still on. Zoe was lying flat on the wooden desk. A black bathrobe was all she was wearing. All the evidence of Mason's lust and her body's reaction to it had all but dried up on her body.Her eyes were closed and there were the salt trails of dried tears on her cheeks. Lying there motionless, her face was unusually flushed. The servant touched her and found that she was burning up. Frightened, she yelled, “Ms. Zoe has got a fever!” She was old and she had been married too. It didn’t take her too long to figure out what caused the fever. She called Mason immediately but nobody picked up. At that moment, Mason was having a meeting with the higher-ups of the Lockwood Corporation. There was a big project and he was ready to take it on, but the top management staff and shareholders had more conservative ideas. They thought he was moving too quickly and that it was too risky.About ha

The joke was on her!…Things weren’t looking good in the conference room back in Lockwood Corporation. Ava barged into the room and whispered in Mason’s ears. He raised his eyes and looked at her, speechless.She gritted her teeth and continued to say, “The fever’s nasty and she suffered some flesh wounds as well. Also, there was some conflict when they checked into the hospital. Ms. Zoe probably knows that Lilith is staying in the presidential suite!”He sat there quietly for a long time. After a long pause, he rose and announced, “Meeting adjourned!” Then, he raced out of the conference room. Ava was at his heels and said, “Your car is ready! Should we head for the hospital now, Mr. Mason?”He didn't respond.Sitting in the car, he leaned on the seat and closed his eyes. An image of Zoe lying on the table came to his mind. Then, he heard her voice in his head. “You don’t know how to love anyone, Mason!”He probably did what he did to her because she pushed his buttons!

She said in a weak but firm tone, “I won’t be your wife anymore! I want a divorce, Mason! You can try to manipulate or threaten me, but I won’t change my mind again! I want nothing from you. All I ask is Noah’s legal contract and the two percent share of Lockwood Corporation.”Mason stared at her, “Those are the most valuable things!”She smirked nonchalantly, “Feel free to drag it out if you don’t want to agree to my terms.”He was about to say something when her door was pushed open gently. It was Lilith, sitting in a wheelchair, her scrawny cheeks looking sickly. She looked at Zoe and said carefully, “I’m sorry, Zoe! I didn’t mean to stay in the suite. I swear I didn’t know that it was reserved for the Lockwood families. I’ll move out of it right now.”What a hypocrite, Zoe thought.She had never taken it out on Lilith for messing up their marriage because she thought it was Mason’s fault all this time. However, she was deeply disgusted by Lilith’s words!For that matter, he

Zoe said with trembling lips, “If you care so much about her, then feel free to marry her, Mason!” She felt around with her hands and found a pill bottle. Mason walked over and picked it up. It was a bottle of birth control pills. He looked at her and she stared back at him. She uttered calmly, “You didn’t wear a condom last night! So, I went ahead and took a pill. Do you have a problem with that?”He replied with a blank face, “None whatsoever!” With that, he turned around and left. Lilith groaned when he brushed past her. “Mason!” Lowering his head, he looked at her bloodied forehead and barked at the doctors standing at the door, “Dress her wounds! She needs to die pretty, so make sure there isn't a scar!”Leaving the ward, he marched into the hallway. What Zoe said kept playing on a loop in his mind.“You didn’t wear a condom last night! So, I went ahead and took a pill. Do you have a problem with that?”It wasn’t that long ago that he took a stroll with her under the

I Refuse to Divorce! Chapter 1465
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
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
I Refuse to Divorce! Chapter 1457
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
