“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

    Cecil had just left. He told Mason that he was still improving on the formula for the latest medicine he had developed and that he wanted him to keep fighting. Needless to say, Mason would never give up. However, it was also true that he didn’t have any idea how long would it take for his right hand to restore its full functions. For that matter, he didn’t know how long he still had to sit in this damned wheelchair.No one had an answer for that. He was in a foul mood. The servants had never dared to disturb him, but tonight was different. He heard the subtle sound of a car pulling into the yard. Then, a flurry of footsteps came from the stairs. At the next moment, Layla was pounding on the poor. “She’s back, Mr. Mason!”At first, he thought she meant Lisa. So, he responded lightly, “Have her wait for me in the dining hall. I’ll be there soon.”However, Layla didn’t respond to him.Frowning, he was about to wheel himself to the door, but someone opened it gently. It was Z

    Mason didn’t push her away, but he didn’t keep kissing her either. Underneath the light, he stared at her gloomily. She was wet from head to toe, her clothes clung to her curvature, revealing her darling and seductive figure.Needless to say, he was turned on by her.However, he forbade himself from acting on his desires. She was still hugging him longingly when he caught her wrists and pressed on them with his chest. Then, he started to caress, fondle, and grope her.He was very rough with her.The way he was treating her now was akin to the way he treated the whores out on the street. Realizing she was getting turned on by his touches, he seized the opportunity and whispered nastily in her ear, “Are you getting turned on? Do you know what it’s like to have sex with a paraplegic? You’ll have to take the lead throughout the entire process and you’re in charge of cleaning up afterward because I simply can’t do it!“Knowing this, do you still want to do it? If you’re fine with it,

    Zoe kept mumbling in a trance, “I didn’t, Mason. I didn’t do it with him!”Holding the cup of herbal tea in her hand, Layla couldn’t help but to nag again, “Look what you’ve done to poor Zoe! She was passed out, but she’s still trying to prove to you that she’s loyal to you!”Looking at the door, he ordered, “Get out of here and bring Ava to me when she’s here.”That was when Layla caught herself and stopped talking. About half an hour later, Ava came to the manor with the doctor. It was still raining outside. She didn’t dare ask about it on the phone earlier. Now that she finally saw Zoe with her own eyes, she was shocked to the core, but she kept quiet about it and didn’t say anything unnecessary.On the other hand, it took the female doctor one glance to know what was going on. She gave Zoe an injection and said with a blank expression, “You can’t have sex with her when she has a high fever! You need to be more careful with it in the future. She could very well die from it.”

    Zoe looked at him, gobsmacked. Moments later, she said in a husky voice, “We didn’t do it all the way through, Mason.”“We had sex!”Wheeling himself toward her, he said tenderly, mirroring the quieted storm outside the window, “We might not have done it all the way through, but we did have sex. That means you stand a chance of getting pregnant again.”At the next moment, he handed her the bottle of pills. Taking it with a trembling hand, she lowered her head and looked at the all-too-familiar bottle and the writings on it. Just like that, she was thrown back to the past…After a long time, she looked at him. Her voice was gentle, but firm when she said, “I’m no longer the old me who you can push around, Mason! Yeah, we had sex, but I reserve the right to make the call if I want to take the pills!“What gives you the right to force me to take the pills? Who are you to me, aside from an ex-husband and someone I had casual sex with?” With that, she threw the bottle of pills into

    It was clearly showing signs of wear and tear, but Mason couldn’t bear to throw them away and kept them in here instead.Picking them up, she stared at them quietly. All of a sudden, something pulled at her heartstrings and she completely fell apart.He said in no uncertain way that she wasn’t the only lady in the world and that he could learn to love another lady!He also claimed that he’d much rather find an ordinary lady and get married to her!He was blatantly lying to her when all signs pointed to him having lived alone the past couple of years, all because of his broken body. She’d even go so far as to say he planned to live in solitude for the rest of his life.He wanted her to start a new life with someone else while he himself rotted in their old manor. That was all of it and yet he still had the gall to lie about his feelings for her. Strong waves of emotion flooded Zoe and caught her off guard! All of their past, both the good and the ugly, drowned her out!Her min

    Mason smiled bitterly. “What else can we do?”Pulling at the back of her head, he stared at her profoundly. Both of their bodies were shivering uncontrollably. It had nothing to do with their lust. Instead, it was about their strong feelings for each other. They might’ve known each other for more than a decade, married for several years, went through several bittersweet split-ups and reconciliations, and made a couple of babies together, but they’d never bared their souls in this way ever before.His eyes were full of lust when he looked at her, but he suppressed them before leaning into her ears. “I want you to live a happy life.” His tone was similar to that of a lover as well as family.Zoe was still shivering all over. Raising her head, she looked at him. The light above shone on her, accentuating her fair, rosy cheeks. He loved looking at her when she was like this. She said to him in tears, “How am I supposed to be happy? Tell me, Mason. What makes you think I can be happy

    Jorge wasn’t aware that Zoe had a high fever. So, he left as soon as he sent Zoe back to her apartment.Her return to Brookesville was both short-term and decided at the last moment. She didn’t hire a servant or maid, which meant the house was vacant, and felt a little lonely. She had no intention of eating or drinking. Instead, she straightaway lay down on her soft, comfy bed.Then, she started thinking about Mason. She recalled their past history and mulled over their future. After some time, she dozed off and had a dream.She was back to being eighteen years old again. That was the first time something stirred in her heart when she saw Mason.…There was a huge party at the Lockwood Manor. She attended the party with Mia. She was just eighteen years old, but she was already an outstandingly beautiful girl. Lisa favored her and treated her kindly back then.The party had just been going on for half an hour when she had her first period. She was a late bloomer, so she was caug

    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
