I Refuse to Divorce! Chapter 407
Zoe returned to her apartment. It was dark and cold at the door as she leaned on it, panting lightly. Her legs were still shaking to this moment.She knew that she’d run into Mason at some point if she returned to Brookesville, but she didn’t count on it being so soon. Everything he did to her at the Kirk Manor entrance deterred her. She had a sharp hunch that he was particularly dangerous right now. It’d be wise for her to stay away from Brookesville. However, Jamie’s hay fever was getting very serious and Silvercrest wasn’t a good place for him. Zoe was stunned for a long time before she raised her hand to turn on the lights. At the next moment, the lights shone on her delicate features, her cheeks fair and exquisite. She might’ve given birth to two kids, but time hadn’t laid its cruel fingers on her. She still looked as beautiful as ever. After a long time, she stood upright, walked over to her wine cabinet, and took out a bottle of champagne. She needed some liquor in her to

Moments later, Luke started the engine and drove the car away. Mason didn’t say anything and sat quietly the whole time. From time to time, he’d look at his right arm. If only this arm was left unscathed, it would’ve given him much-needed courage to beg Zoe to return to him, regardless of his busted feet.However, it was too late to fantasize about it now.…The next day, Zoe met up with Leslie.At first, she thought she’d just have a cup of coffee and leave after a brief talk. However, he insisted on having a lunch. “It’s been a long time since we last met, Zoe. Are you not going to let me treat you to a meal?”In the end, they had lunch in a high-end clubhouse. Leslie wasn’t exactly focused on his food. Instead, he kept staring at her the whole time. Needless to say, he wasn’t staring at her because she was beautiful. He was merely using her to get some information on Ella. Putting down her glass of wine, she said lightly, “I know what you want, Leslie. You want to know

Fiddling with his phone, Leslie snorted and said, “You say that, but I’ve never had sex with any other lady on our marital bed!”Nellie was about to defend herself when he took more than a dozen pictures out of his front pocket. Then, he flung them onto the bed one by one. He looked at her and sneered, “Get a good look at these saucy pictures! You slept with so many different guys! I wouldn't have known that you’ve got such a darling figure if it weren’t for these pictures. Look at all the fun you’ve had, Nellie.”Picking up the pictures, she checked each and every one of them. She was completely stunned. Then, she came to her senses and started begging him instinctively, “I did it because I’m too lonely! Please don’t show my dad these pictures, Leslie. He'll kill me.”She was still afraid that he’d deny her her wish. After all, she knew better than anyone how heartless he could be. He singlehandedly tortured her and reduced her to a husk of her former self in the past few yea

Closing his eyes gently, Leslie thought to himself. Ella was coming back to Brookesville at last.…Zoe was lingering in the clubhouse’s restroom. She had finally told Leslie about Farley.After a long time, she still didn’t feel any better. In fact, it wasn’t just about Ella. She, too, had been good friends with Farley. He was generous and giving, especially when it came to his friends. Back when she got the news about the plane crash, she was rooted to the spot for a long time, trying hard to come to grips with his demise.Saddened by the thought of him, her nose turned red and tears started building up in her eyes. At that moment, David gave her a call and told her that he was at the parking lot in front of the clubhouse entrance, waiting for her. He also asked her about her lunch with Leslie. Zoe responded softly, “It was brief. The way I see it, he still hasn’t moved on from Ella, but I gave it to him straight… I’ll tell you more about it when I see you.”Then, they s

Eira was about to say something when she suddenly saw someone at the end of the hallway. It was Mason. He was sitting in his wheelchair in silence, staring at her intensely. It startled her so much that she didn’t dare to keep talking. Firstly, she was afraid that Mason might take revenge on her. Then, there was also the fact that she still had feelings for him and she didn’t wish to ruin her chance to win his heart.All sorts of emotions rushed over her at that moment. In the end, she flashed a cold smile at Zoe. “Lilith used to tell me that you loved him deeply and I believed her! Now, I know that you didn’t even know him as well as you should… Your love is just as superficial as my crush on him back then! It isn’t close to anything profound!“Go on! Start a new life and fall in love with another man!“You’re going to regret it someday!”…After a brief moment, Zoe responded to her with a blank expression, “How well do you think you know about my history with Mason, Eira?”

There were no secrets between them, he thought to himself. David pulled the car over after he drove through an intersection. Leaning over, he looked at Zoe quietly and asked her point blank, “Are you thinking about him?”She wasn’t about to admit to it. So, she responded swiftly, “That’s not it!”All of a sudden, she heard a soft clicking sound. The next thing she knew, he unbuckled himself and leaned close to her, seemingly trying to kiss her. The thing was, human bodies react most honestly when they react out of pure instinct. Just as his lips were about to close on hers, she raised her hands and blocked him. The simple gesture stopped him from kissing her altogether.Zoe herself was dumbfounded. It was perfectly common for couples to kiss one another, but she instinctively avoided taking that step with him. Raising her head, she felt a little unsure of herself.He was very close to her now. In fact, they were so close that they could feel each other’s breaths. Under norm

“I drafted up the agreement as a joke, Zoe! The truth is, I never loved you!” …These memories were so overwhelming that they were suffocating her. Raising her head slightly, she tried to fight back her tears. At that moment, it started to drizzle. The raindrops drenched her clothes, but she paid them no mind. In fact, she needed the chilling rain to put out the anxiety in her heart.Then, she started walking in the rain. Eira’s words were stuck on a loop in her mind. “Do you honestly think Mr. Mason would ever love another lady? Do you really think he’s the kind of man who’d abandon his kids just to be with another woman?”All of a sudden, she stopped in her tracks. There was a high-end bridal boutique by the street. Looking through the glass, she could see a pretty lady trying on her wedding dress. There was a young man next to her too. They were so intimate and close to each other that they could only be a couple. However, Zoe was stunned by the sight. It was as if so

The sales assistant served them two cups of coffee, but Zoe didn’t drink a drop of it. Instead, she trained her gaze at Gabriela. Gabriela collected her thoughts and spoke, her eyes staring off into the distant past, “Back then, it was Ava who got in touch with me at the beginning. She said that Mason wanted to make a deal with me.”She raised her cup of coffee and took a sip, her lean fingers were shaking slightly.By the time she spoke again, she was smiling bitterly. “I hated him very much back then. There was no way I’d help him in any way. However, Ava made an offer I couldn’t possibly refuse. Apparently, Mason was going to give me a project that was worth billions of dollars. I could’t possibly turn down such an offer!“Then, Ava brought me to the hospital to sign the contract. That’s when I saw him. He looked so… Well, he certainly looks better now than when I first saw him. It was awful. He was just lying on the bed quietly. He couldn’t even move a finger.“Do you know wh

At that moment, Gwen was completely flustered. She didn’t understand what Zion meant, nor did she understand why he was deliberately getting close to her. She wanted to ask, but before she could, Zion had already led her out of the car. The restaurant arranged by the school leadership was nearby, just off campus. Gwen had been there with Zion before, but not in a private room. Returning to an old haunt brought a sense of nostalgia. Zion walked side by side with Gwen. He was six-foot tall, and she was about five-foot-five. They made for a strikingly good-looking pair. Considering their history, the school leaders naturally couldn’t resist teasing them a bit. Gwen felt slightly uncomfortable and replied, "We were young and foolish." Over the years, Zion had grown seasoned in the business world, exuding an effortless charm. He responded with a light smile, "I wonder if we can pick up where we left off—still holding a grudge?" As soon as those words were said, the schoo

After running away in a flurry that night, Gwen retreated into her home, avoiding the world outside for several days. Her father, Noah, meanwhile, busied himself with his new hobby of keeping turtles—purchased on a whim after his wife, Gwynn, teased him for being too old. In an attempt to prove his youth, Noah even released the turtles back into the wild one evening, making a point of marking one with the name "Zion" on its shell in a bold act of petty revenge. Gwynn, ever the pragmatist, found the gesture immature and pointless, but it brought him a fleeting sense of satisfaction. Gwen, however, was unaware of the antics her father had indulged in. All she knew was that her father had been unusually concerned during her self-imposed seclusion, urging her to get out and take a break. Noah's insistence that she shouldn’t remain cooped up at home was an attempt to draw her back into the world, to reconnect with life. But she couldn’t shake the weight of everything that had transp

In the lounge, Gwen curled up in Tegan’s embrace, crying silently. Tegan gently stroked her smooth black hair, sighing softly. “If you really like him, I’ll help you talk to him.”Gwen sobbed quietly, “Dad will say you’re being rebellious.”Tegan paused for a moment, then replied, “Your brother will help me, won’t he?”Gwen clung to Tegan, continuing to cry softly. She remembered that today was Yeager’s full moon celebration and decided to cry for just a little while. After all, who hasn’t shed tears in their youth?At that moment, there was a knock at the door. From the sound of it, the person outside had a very refined aura. Tegan immediately guessed who it was; it certainly wasn’t her husband. She gently rubbed Gwen’s head. “I’ll go answer it.”When Tegan opened the door, as expected, it was Zion standing outside. The two locked eyes, and after a moment of silence, Tegan calmly spoke, “You two talk.” Zion nodded.In the quiet lounge, the soft sound of Gwen’s crying fill

The following August. It was the party for Ocelotte and Molly's child. Molly had given birth to a boy, named Yeager Sanders, a name chosen by her eldest brother-in-law, Lorian. She was very fond of the name. As for Lorian and Tegan's youngest son, he was named Fergus Sanders. Yeager and Fergus were the next generation of boys in the Sanders family. However, the first child was still Lola, the one and only little princess. She loved following Gwen around. The little girl was now three and a half years old and about to start kindergarten. On the day of Yeager's party, Gwen was still taking Lola around, but she unexpectedly ran into an old acquaintance. It had truly been a long time. Since the year Zion had left for another country, although they had occasionally bumped into each other, they hadn’t had the chance for a proper meeting. How many years had passed? Gwen didn't dare to think about it, nor did she want to calculate. She vaguely felt it had been four

After Yanni finished speaking, the Sanders family stood frozen in shock. It was Gwynn who recovered first, quickly asking Yanni, “How is Molly doing?” Yanni smiled reassuringly. “Don’t worry, Aunt Gwynn. Molly is fine, just a bit overwhelmed. I think the baby came as a surprise. Ocelotte is with her right now.” Before Gwynn could respond, Noah muttered under his breath, “A surprise is great! A surprise is wonderful.” Although the young couple’s relationship was excellent, what parent wouldn’t hope for grandchildren? And with Ocelotte and Molly’s stunning looks, the baby was bound to be exceptional. The mere thought of it had Noah brimming with excitement. He silently speculated that it was definitely going to be an adorable little girl. Definitely just like Molly.After a while, Ocelotte emerged, carrying Molly in his arms. She had regained her strength after sipping some sweetened water but was advised to rest for a few days at home. Moreover, during the first trimeste

Over half a year later, in the golden autumn of October. The film "Scarlet Dreams, Jade Skies", starring Molly, achieved a blockbuster box office success and earned her a nomination for Best Actress at the prestigious Golden Bear Awards. On the night of the ceremony, the entire Sanders family showed up to cheer Molly on. Tegan, worried she might feel pressured, kept comforting her, saying, “It’s okay if you don’t win this time. There’s always next time.” Molly was deeply moved. Tegan had just finished her postpartum recovery and yet still came to support her. Looking at Ocelotte, Molly whispered, “I’ve already won the biggest award of my life, Tegan.” Usually composed, Tegan was amused by her and replied gently, “You’ve been much more lively since hanging out with Ocelotte! Your big brother thinks it’s great. He always praises Ocelotte for being so caring.” Molly felt a little shy and leaned in closer to chat softly with Tegan. Gwen handed over a piece of candy and qu

Molly spent the most joyful holidays of her life.In early spring, she married Ocelotte. Her wedding veil was an impressive three meters long, as the elders said that the longer the veil, the longer the marriage. So, Ocelotte had a three-meter-long veil designed for her.He said he wanted to be with her for three lifetimes and more.As the bells of the church rang, Molly, holding onto Lorian’s arm, slowly walked toward Ocelotte. From that moment on, they were one, bound together not only as a couple but as a family. His loved ones were now hers, and they would share both joy and hardship.The few meters between them felt like the culmination of the four years they had spent together.At the altar, Lorian handed Molly to his younger brother and gave his shoulder a gentle pat. "Take good care of her," he said.Ocelotte took a step forward, gazing at Molly through the delicate veil. Today, she looked like a pure white jasmine flower.Ocelotte gently lifted the veil, wanting her t

On the steps in front of the villa, Ocelotte and Molly stood ready to greet their guest. Brody stepped out of the car, looking particularly sharp and dashing tonight. The sight made Ocelotte frown instantly. Dressed as flamboyantly as a peacock, Brody had clearly put in some effort. Later, Ocelotte decided, he’d ask Molly outright who looked better. Was it him or Brody? Brody walked up the steps, his silhouette framed by the twilight. Molly stepped forward and gave him a brief hug. After everything they’d been through, they were like family now. Ocelotte, watching from the side: *Is all that closeness really necessary?* When Molly and Brody finally separated, Ocelotte decided he wanted a hug too. Brody froze, startled by the unexpected request, but before he could react, he was nearly bowled over by Ocelotte's overly enthusiastic embrace. Ocelotte pulled him into a firm hug, slapping him hard on the back. “Now that you’re leaving, I’ll really miss you, you know.”

Before the Spring Festival, Ocelotte moved out of the family estate and started living with Molly. Noah fully approved, saying, "Hurry up and move out. Don’t disturb your mom and me enjoying our world of two." Ocelotte swiftly packed his large luggage, pulled Gwen over, and shoved her toward Noah. "Dad, you must regret having a third child. Too late to send her back to Mom’s belly now." Noah frowned. "Can’t you pack your sister up and take her with you?" Ocelotte hoisted his luggage. "Dad. Molly and I also want our world of two. You and Mom just need to endure it a bit longer. Once Gwen gets married, you’ll truly have your world of two, and none of us kids will need you and Mom to take care of us." Noah cursed playfully, watching his youngest son nimbly hop into a black Range Rover and head toward his fiancée. For a moment, he felt a little sentimental. Noah still remembered the year Ocelotte was born. Times were tough, and he was locked in a life-and-death struggle wi
