Zoe knew what was on Rowena’s mind. She smiled gently and said, “Thank you kindly, Ms. Rowena! How about this? Your dinner with Mr. Mason is on the house. Please, enjoy your meal.”

With that, she left graciously.

Rowena was still upset over it, though. It took her a while to compose herself. “How does she know our names, Mason?”

His gaze was still locked on Zoe. After a brief moment, he said with a blank face, “That’s my ex-wife.”

She was rooted to the spot at what he said.

Water kept flowing out of the golden faucet in the restroom. Zoe was pressing down on her heart gently. It was still pounding like crazy to this moment.

She might’ve prepared herself for the moment, but seeing Mason in the flesh still turned her legs to jelly. The painful memories of the past washed over her like a rogue wave.

After a long time, she calmed down. She was about to wash her hands when she found herself staring into the eyes of a man in the mirror.

Then, she was stunned.

    It started raining when he drove home. Switching on the wipers, he watched as the raindrops fell on his windshield, blurring the neon lights in the city. The night grew darker. Mason drove for another five minutes when he saw a white Maserati pulled over by the side of the road. A lady was opening the hood of the car with an umbrella in her hand. She took a look at the engine and went back to her car.It was Zoe.Stepping on the brakes lightly, he pulled over by her car. Then, he looked at her across the car window. She was panicking, unsure of what to do. It looked like she was searching for something, probably a business card.After a long time, she raised her head and noticed him. Both of them locked gazes, but no one uttered a single word. It seemed as if they were thrown back to the tragic split a few years ago and couldn’t pull themselves out of it.Raindrops rolled down their windows, reminiscent of the tears shed by heartbroken lovers. Much time had passed when he got

    They were both mature adults. Some things were better left unsaid.…Half an hour later, Mason had pulled over at her apartment. The rain hadn’t let up. There was a hint of sexual tension in the car. After all, they used to be married. They had slept with each other countless times and did a lot of crazy stuff together. All of those were seared into their memories. She broke the silence. “Thanks for giving me a ride. I'll be going now.” She was about to unbuckle her seat belt when he held her hands firmly. Blinking slowly, she said angrily, “Let me go, Mason!”Staring at her, there was a profound urge lurking in his eyes. It was the kind of look that only a mature lady could understand. It was none other than his intense lust to make her his right now, both physically and mentally.Zoe’s breath became ragged. She tried breaking free but she couldn’t. Mason held a firm grip over her with ease. It wasn’t as if he wanted to force anything, he was merely making sure she cou

    Zoe’s heart sank when she heard what Yanni said.Taking off her coat, she sat next to her daughter and rubbed her head. “Were you a good girl today? Did you take your pills?”She turned on the night light, casting a warm glow in the room. Yanni buried her face into the pillow listlessly. Her cheeks were fair and her hair was as black as coal. She looked beautiful and graceful. Then, she said softly, “Grandma gave me the pills! They tasted bitter.”Zoe's heart could just break. Holding Yanni’s cheeks, she said, “You’ll stop having nosebleeds once you go through the surgery. You won’t have to take any more pills either.”Yanni nodded in response.Leaping into Zoe’s arms, she said, “I miss Dad, Mom! Deborah said I’ll be seeing Dad soon. Is it true? She also told me that you’re going to make another baby with Dad.”That stunned Zoe. Deborah must’ve overheard her exchange with the doctor and told Yanni about Mason. She wasn’t pleased with it. Perhaps it was time she had a talk wit

    After a long time, a strong smell of ammonia lingered in the bedroom. Mason was breathing rapidly. He turned to the side as the unsatisfied feeling coursed through all over his body. His lust hadn’t abated at all!Instead, he felt hollow. He longed to hug Zoe in his arms and have his way with her fair, delicate body. He wanted to be held tightly by her so he could feel her warmth. The longing in him was so intense that his body started aching.After the feeling subsided a little, he rolled off the bed and headed to the bathroom for a cold shower.…Yanni had another nosebleed the next morning.Worried about her condition, Zoe brought her to a doctor she knew. Cecil had recommended Doctor Zara to her and said that her medical skills and character were top-notch. So, Yanni had been receiving treatments with this doctor ever since they moved back to Brookesville.After the examination, Zara said softly, “Please let her do the surgery as soon as you can.” Then, she patted her head

    Yanni recognized him. She knew Mason was his father, but she felt sorry for herself. He hadn’t been a part of her life for as long as she could remember. She knew she should’ve leaped into his arms, but all she could do was hold tight to her mother’s legs now.Holding her arms, Mason pulled her over to his side slowly. In the end, Yanni couldn’t hold herself back anymore and held him tight. A lump formed in Mason’s throat when he caught the whiff of formula off of her. She was just several months old when they left him. She felt a little shy, now that she was in her father’s embrace, but that did nothing to dull her sharp senses. It felt as if her dad was crying. Holding his cheeks, she stared at him with glinting eyes and blew at them, “Your eyes stung. Didn’t they, Dad? Here, I blew on it. You’ll feel better after this!”He ran his hands across her arms and legs. It had been forever since he last saw her and he had missed her badly. So, he wasn’t even half done rubbing his

    He might’ve grabbed her lightly, but it was a strong and firm grip.Zoe couldn’t help but raise her eyes and look at him. There was lust in his eyes. Their eyes were locked onto each other as both of them were thrown back to the countless nights they pleasured each other. He had pinned her slender wrists on the pillow as he raised and lowered his hips repeatedly.It seemed that sex was all that was left between them, aside from the painful memories. Zoe smiled miserably. Struggling slightly, she spoke with a hushed voice, “Mason…”Staring at her, he said softly, “I know I’m overstepping my boundaries, but I can’t hold myself back. I’m not keen on knowing that you’re dating him.” Then, he decided to drop it because he knew she disliked the way he asked it. Then, he behaved like a gentleman and escorted them to her car. Mia was carrying Yanni. So, she got into the car first. Just as Zoe was about to do the same, he said gently, “I’m going to hang out with Yanni tonight.”She

    What he said brought her to tears. Closing the door, she tugged her scarf and murmured, “What’s the point in saying this, Mason? It’s all in the past.”Then, he asked her, “What do I have to do to make you take me seriously?”Putting Yanni’s newly bought toy aside, he pinned Zoe to the door before she knew what happened.The fluorescent light was shining on them brightly, accentuating her delicate features.He stared intensely at her for a good while. After that, he turned her around abruptly, held her slender waist, and started pleasuring her slowly. Her voice was husky when she grumbled, “Mason!”Her body was shaking, but she didn’t so much as try to push him away. He knew why that was. The reason she came back to Brookesville was to have sex with him. However, he wouldn’t let her look at his expression. Pressing against her back, he asked her the way a husband would talk to his wife, “How long are you going to stay this time?”“About two to three months! I’ll go back to

    Zoe felt a lump in her throat. She couldn’t utter a single word. Mason was distressed to see her like this. So, he stopped touching her and pressed his head against her forehead instead. “We can start over as long as you’re willing to give it a go! Give me a chance to look after you and Yanni. Please?”He was so humble. It almost seemed as if their split was nothing but a dream. They were still in the middle of their talk when Yanni woke up and called out to her. “Mommy!”The little girl was wearing onesie pajamas and holding a small pillow under her arm. She walked out of her room in her bare feet. It was a good thing the apartment was as warm as it was in spring. Her eyes widened when she saw her Mom and Dad hugging. Her head was slightly bigger than her body, making her look that much more adorable. Lowering his head, he looked at her and said, “We’ll talk about this later!” With that, he let go of her and walked over to carry Yanni in his arms. It was about eight in t

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
