I Refuse to Divorce! Chapter 189
The next morning, Mason received a call from the hospital. It was Lilith’s doctor, Dr. Zahir.“Ms. Lilith wasn’t feeling too well last night, but she’s bounced back after our valiant efforts! Of course, I can’t claim credit for it on my own. It took an entire team to do it.”Leaning on the couch, Mason rubbed his brows, “What about Zoe? Did her fever come back?”Zahir started stammering at that. Sitting upright, he asked, “What happened to her?”Zahir felt a chill down his spine. Did he bet on the wrong horse? Wasn’t Lilith the lady Mason cared most about in the world? Was it actually Zoe, his legitimate wife?He wouldn’t dare lie to Mason, so he said, “Ms. Zoe started having intermittent fever episodes, but we’re short-staffed. Fortunately, your servant was very capable. She used the traditional way to bring down her body temperature. Ms. Zoe is doing fine and feeling much better now!”Zahir tried to make light of the situation, but Mason flung a crystal ashtray across the roo

There was a lump in Mason’s throat. This was the kind of life he wanted when he won her back. This was how he wanted her to treat him, but all she got in return was him humiliating her!He proceeded to beg Zoe to give him one more chance.She stared at the pair of cufflinks, stunned. They were proof that she decided to love him again. It was also a painful reminder of how stupid she was. She was so happy when she bought them for him, but she was also humiliated terribly when he forced himself on her in the study!Her voice was soft when she spoke in a daze, “No more! I won’t be that stupid anymore! It’s over between us, Mason!”It hurt her, but she still packed up her stuff, ready to leave. Ella was occupied with handling her discharge procedure, so there were only two of them in her ward. She took off the patient's gown as well as her bra and her underwear. As she said, she’d give him back all of the branded things she bought with his money!Not bothered by the fact that he was

Mason knelt on the pavement and held Zoe in his arms. She was covered in so much blood that it stained his palms as red as wine.He called out to her in a trembling voice, but she could no longer hear him. Her eyes were closed and her body was slowly wasting away. The warmth was leaving her body as rapidly as she had lost her love for him…A single tear fell straight into his aching heart.…The doctors were rushing in and out of the emergency room in Lockwood Hospital. None of them dared cause any delays.Mason stood right outside the operating room. Raising his eyes, he looked at the red light outside of the operating room. All he could hear was what the doctor told him moments ago.“You need to be prepared, Mr. Mason. Ms. Zoe suffered a compound fracture on her left arm. She might never be able to perform delicate tasks with it in the future!”What did it mean? Did it mean that she could no longer play the violin? They hadn’t even started the surgery then. How could they simp

Mason couldn’t help but take a step back.Zoe said with quivering lips, “Don’t push me, or I’ll take care of your precious Lilith!”…He gulped. After a brief moment, he said softly, “I thought you could duck out of the way back then! I didn’t do it because I love her. You’re the one I…”He stopped abruptly. He was about to say that Zoe was the one he loved and that he didn’t harbor any feelings toward Lilith. However, he chose to protect Lilith, instead of Zoe, when it mattered the most. He failed at protecting his wife.Then, he left her ward. He had never experienced this level of emptiness. Deep down, he knew that it was over between them.Nothing could possibly salvage their relationship.She didn’t just look at him as though she didn’t know him anymore. There was also hatred in her eyes. Who would blame her? He chose to sacrifice her and save his alleged mistress when she was about to realize her musical dream. That night, she claimed that he didn’t know how to love

Zoe had suffered heavy injuries. Aside from her fractured left arm, there were bruises, cuts, and blunt force trauma all over her body. She needed to be taken care of, but she wouldn’t let Mason do it.She refused to talk to him or let him feed her. On top of that, she wouldn’t let him clean her up. It was as if she was trying to eject him from her life.Plates of food were knocked over and fell to the floor. Mason looked at the mess briefly before glancing at Zoe, who was sitting on the bed, “What on earth do you want? Do you want a divorce right now?”Feeling a tightness in her throat, she responded softly after a brief pause, “I want to transfer to another hospital! And yes, I want a divorce!”He glared at her while a nurse walked in, saw the mess on the floor, cleaned it up, and left the ward quietly. Then, he walked to the window and turned his back to her.Wearing a white shirt and black long pants, he looked stunningly sharp. After a long pause, he walked out of her ward.

Mia produced a key and set it down on Mason’s desk. She even forced herself to flash him a grateful smile. “I talked it over with Gordon before I came here. We already sent away the two private nurses. Also, we’ll no longer stay at Kirk Manor, which you so graciously gave us. We’ll move out this afternoon! “As for Noah, it’s up to you if you want to keep helping him. For the record, we’re prepared to take the loss. If we’re lucky, we might be able to see him return to us once he's served his sentence.”Mia sobbed a little. “Now, all that’s left is Zoe…” She paused for a moment before continuing. “Both of you were married for several years. You have to have some appreciation for everything she’s done throughout the years. “So, please let her go! The only thing she did wrong was to fall in love with you when she was young! It’s not a crime to have loved the wrong person now, is it?”Mason flinched. He stared at Mia. She was heartbroken, but she was still looking out for both of

Mason was very calm when he walked into Zoe’s ward. The light in the ward hurt his eyes, but not as much as David and Zoe, who were embracing each other. She used to be his and only his.On the other hand, David was close to losing his control. Releasing her gently, he took her to the bathroom and asked her to stay put in there. After that, he took off his coat and his cuff links. Every action was carried out slowly and deliberately, but there was an unmistakable sense of aggression behind them.Mason was doing the same thing too.The next thing they knew, they were throwing punches at each other fiercely. Every time they swung their fist, they were out to seriously hurt their opponent. It was especially true for David. His eyes turned red with fury when he roared at Mason, “What did she ever do to deserve you? You could fill a boat with the number of guys who tried to win her heart in the music academy and yet she foolishly fell for you instead! If you don’t love her, then why

Well. It was too late now!Zoe leaned on the couch and stared off into the night. After a long time, she leaned over, looked at him, and flashed him a faint smile. “There’s something deeply wrong with you, Mason, but it's no longer my job to stay and fix you!”Mason’s face turned pale. It was dark and she couldn’t see his injuries, but it didn’t matter. It wasn’t as if she cared, anyway. He had snuffed out her love for him with his own hands!Silence draped over the ward. He was sitting on the couch and letting the doctor apply salve to him while she was leaning on the headboard quietly, a ticket in her hands. David had given it to her that evening. It was a ticket to the first Global Classical Music Concert in Hucksburgh and she was supposed to be the opening act for the entire orchestra!Unable to tear her eyes away from the ticket, she spent the entire night trying to move on from it, but she couldn’t. How could she? It wasn’t so much about fulfilling her dream as it was

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

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
