I Refuse to Divorce! Chapter 303
Mason proceeded to put Yanni back in the crib. Then, he hugged Zoe from behind, leaned into her ear, and asked lightly, “Why didn’t you open your gift? Go on. See if you like it!”She didn’t like him getting close to her like this. Shrugging him off gently, she went to open her gift and saw the light pink scarf in there. He put it on for her and said gently, “It looks good on you!”It had been days since he last had sex with her. Moreover, she looked better recently. So, he couldn’t help but think about getting intimate with her. To drive the point home, it was Christmas Eve tonight. Naturally, he was affected by the holiday and wanted to do something romantic.Hugging her from the back, he breathed at her ear and said with a husky voice, “Let’s give it a try, Zoe. I’ll stop the moment you feel uncomfortable.”Before she could answer, he swooped her up and put her down on the couch. Leaning on the couch with one hand, he held her hand with another and kissed her. He murmured, “I’ll

They ended things on a bad note.Ever since that night, they treated each other even more coldly. At times, it seemed Mason’s obsession with her was the only thing holding them together.He wouldn’t set her free.What he didn’t know was that Eira’s presence made Zoe’s postpartum depression, which had been starting to improve slightly, way worse than before. It was so serious that she had to take antidepressants, which meant she had to stop breastfeeding Yanni. So, the baby drank only formula now.All the promises he made about making up to her turned to dust before their strained relationship. Perhaps he still cared about Zoe, but he craved Eira’s adoring and admiring eyes more than her. It was enough to make him forget about home.It was the end of the year and Zoe’s condition got more serious. She’d get insomnia and had to take sleeping pills every night. At first, she merely needed one of them to go to sleep. Now, however, she needed to take three to knock herself out. Howeve

She was about to respond to him, but he had already walked past her.Eira couldn’t help but feel disappointed. She could sense that Mason was astounded by her appearance and had a thing for her. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have looked at her that way and he certainly wouldn’t have given her a ride that time. However, why didn’t he want her?At that moment, Lisa scanned her from top to bottom and asked Ava, who was standing next to her, “Is this young lady the intern?”Ava responded respectfully, “Yeah! This lady doesn’t know when to quit! She always finds excuses to get near Mr. Mason and he had been accommodating with her.”Sneering, Lisa said, “Don’t worry, she’s a nobody. She’s not going to be able to marry into our family!”Eira heard Lisa’s remarks and felt thoroughly embarrassed. She, too, knew she shouldn’t have tried to seduce a married man, but it wasn’t as if she could control herself.She loved Mason!…Two days later, Ava went to Mason’s manor to give him some document

It was eight o’clock in the night by the time Mason was done with the video conference. Instead of going back to the bedroom, he walked over to the window in the study and smoked a couple of cigarettes. A wisp of smoke hung in the air, covering the study with a greenish hue.Mist covered the entire window. He reached out and wiped the glass, only to find four inches thick of pockets of snow gathered on the ground. It snowed particularly heavily this winter, it seemed.With a cigarette between his fingers, he breathed out wisps of smoke as he stared out the window with deep, profound eyes. He stood there like that until he finished smoking. Then, he snuffed out the cigarette and left the study.The first thing he saw was the company yearbook when he stepped into the private lounge. It was just laid there, looking conspicuous. He flipped through it and saw the picture where he stood shoulder to shoulder with Eira. It’d be pushing it to claim that there was nothing between them.Zoe h

Mason didn’t feel the need to hide his intention. He proceeded to roll over and got up from the bed. The moment he opened the door, cold air rushed in and disturbed Yanni, who started to moan in the crib. Zoe rose and patted her baby’s back, trying to put her back to sleep.Moments later, he came back into the bedroom. He cast a glance at Zoe before making his way to the fitting room to get changed. Then, he said, “I need to head out. You and Yanni can go ahead and sleep.”Carrying Yanni in her arms, she went over to the fitting room. He was in the middle of changing out of the bathrobe and into his shirt and casual pants. It might be snowing heavily out there, but he wasn’t going to dress thoughtlessly. After all, he was about to meet Eira in the middle of the night.Then, he saw Zoe in his peripheral visions and frowned, “Why aren’t you going back to sleep?”Lowering her head, she checked on her baby, “Yanni’s making a fuss! If you care about Eira that much, why don’t you just

It was the middle of the night when Mason pulled his car over in front of an apartment. The snow was falling heavily and Eira, who was waiting for him downstairs, was particularly agitated. The moment she saw him, she leaped into his arms and couldn’t help but murmur, “I’m so scared, Mr. Mason! Wendy took four sleeping pills. I thought she would die right there and then…”He closed the car door with his backhand, lowered his head, and stared at the young lady in his arms. She did cross the line, but he didn’t scowl at her. Instead, he merely pushed her away lightly. “Is she okay now?”Eira raised her eyes and looked at him. There were tears in her puppy-like eyes. Biting her lips, she said, “Her family made it here. They’re trying to comfort her now. So, it might not be a good time to visit her in the dorm.”Then, she looked both shy and uneasy. She was still hesitating when he opened the door to the passenger seat and said nonchalantly, “Get in the car!”She couldn’t read Mason.

Mason didn’t push her away immediately. Instead, he lowered his head and looked at her. She resembled Zoe a little and reminded him of when his wife was a young lady. She, too, had snuck up on him, hugged him, and said with a jovial voice, “I love you, Mason. Will you be my boyfriend? I’m packed full of qualities you want, I swear!”Then, she proceeded to name the qualities, only to find that she was drawing a blank. After a brief moment, he pushed Eira away and said lightly, “I’m a married man!”Rejected, Eira’s face turned red as she bit her lips and murmured, “I know my place! I won’t come between you and your family. I won’t ask for much the way Lilith did, either. I’m content with what you give me.”She was contented with him accompanying her a little, just like he did tonight.In fact, she didn’t have to put everything out there. Mason was perfectly aware of her crush on him. He could choose to ignore her, but he came eventually.However, she had made all of this meaningle

Zoe was lying on the bed in the Lockwood Hospital. The doctors managed to pull her back from the dead, but she was still very weak and needed to stay in the hospital for further observation. Standing by the window, Mason watched the gathered snow on top of the tree branches. The doctor said softly from behind him, “Ms. Zoe took more than twenty sleeping pills. It was probably a suicide attempt brought on by her postpartum depression. I suggest you let her go through the psychotherapy and keep her away from the source of her distress. That should help her kick off the depression sooner.”After a brief moment, he responded lightly, “Okay.”Then, the doctor left.Turning around, Mason looked at Zoe who was lying quietly on the bed. He hadn’t stopped trembling since he found her unconscious in their bedroom. She almost died. If he had come home half an hour later, then she might very well have crossed over onto the other side and Yanni would’ve been motherless.All of a sudden, t

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
I Refuse to Divorce! Chapter 1459
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
