Chapter 552

Author: Light Breeze
Zoe didn’t want to fall into it.

Running into her bedroom, she picked up a stack of missing person posters and raced downstairs without putting on a coat. She ran all the way to the streets and started putting them up all over stores.

“Please contact Zoe Sanders if you have any clues or information regarding her missing family.”

It was raining and she was putting them up like a maniac, as if she could drive Mason out of her mind if she would just keep doing it.

However, none of it did anything. She stood in the rain, feeling lost and confused.

She couldn’t recall her past, no matter how hard she tried. It was a lost cause.

A black Rolls-Royce was parked by the side of a road far away from her. The wipers kept swishing left and right, blurring everything in the car.

The man lit a cigarette. There was a red glow at the lit end of it that rose and fell as he smoked. He was looking at her quietly, taking in the look on her face.

Eventually, their eyes met each other.

    Zoe said stubbornly, “That’s none of my concern!”Yanni feigned surprise, “Really? I’ve seen you stealing glances at my dad several times! I dislike people who wouldn’t own up to their feelings, Alice!”Before she could retort, Mason knocked on the coffee table a couple of times and said, “Keep working on your French with Zoe.” With that, he left the study. The door closed, but Zoe could still hear him relaying orders to his servants. He wanted Layla to bring Ramona to the guest room and make her her favorite coffee. He also asked another servant to change the flowers in there to roses because Ramona was allergic to lilies.He was so considerate that it pained Zoe to hear him. He must’ve had real feelings for Ramona, unlike the way he had treated her. Perhaps someone like her was nothing but a plaything, as far as he was concerned. She was feeling sorry for herself when Yanni leaned into her ear and whispered, “Feeling bad, huh? If you won’t climb onto my dad’s bed, plenty of

    Turning around, Zoe stared at him. Mason had already picked up his magazine and started reading it again. The crystal chandelier on the ceiling shone on him, making it look like she was looking at him through a glass. The view was particularly captivating. However, he had no intention to talk to her further. He knew that she was still here, but he didn’t raise his eyes. Instead, he said absentmindedly, “Is there anything else?”She shook her head in response and closed the door as she left. At the next moment, he raised his eyes and looked at the door. He knew that she was mad at him because he invited Ramona over. He also knew that she was beginning to doubt herself. She didn’t have her memories, but she still loved him a lot. It was like they say, the heart wants what it wants. Perhaps Zoe’s heart wanted him and no one else. The thought of it gave rise to a bittersweet feeling in his chest.…The evening light was already dancing across the sky by the time she went downs

    Zoe was a little worried about that. However, Mason wiped the key card, pointed to a bedroom in the suite, and said, “You’ll be sleeping here.”Zoe swept her eyes across the suite. Her bedroom and his master bedroom were at least sixty-five feet apart. She felt better with this kind of distance between them. She put her suitcase in her room before she went to the master bedroom with him. Leaning on the couch, he paged through the collaboration proposal while she unpacked his suitcase. In fact, she had packed his suitcase before they headed to the airport. Hanging up his shirts, long pants, and accessories, she discovered that it felt like second nature, as if she had done this more than a thousand times. She was stunned by the thought and slowly drifted off into a trance.Noticing that she was quiet, he raised his eyes and asked lightly, “What’s the matter?”Lowering her head, she tried to cover it and said, “It was nothing!”He asked, “Are you thinking about your husband?”

    She wasn’t a fool. It felt as if she was nothing more than a plaything for him to toy around with. Mason had clearly done it on purpose!It didn’t matter if it was about Ramona or the young lady sitting next to him tonight. He wanted her to see it. Why would he torture her in this manner? Was it part of his game? Was it because he thought it was fun while he pulled her strings?All of a sudden, someone else appeared in the mirror. It was Mason!He was standing underneath the crystal chandelier while dressed up to the nines. It didn’t matter how she looked at it, he simply looked flawless.He had drunk two bottles of red wine, but she still couldn’t read what he was thinking. He was just staring at her. It was a different kind of stare than the one he gave the young lady in the private room. He had only ever absentmindedly looked at the young lady. However, he would always stare at her passionately every time he looked at her, as if undressing and caressing her with his blac

    “Are you going to remain celibate for a man who doesn’t even exist?”She didn’t have anything to say to him. She wallowed in self-loathing and a craving for more of his affections. It turned out it was extremely easy to succumb to temptation.Then, she pressed her face against his neck and found out that he was having a high fever. …Ever since Mason sacrificed himself for Yanni during the surgery, his body had never been the same. On top of that, he didn’t take good care of himself after he stood in the rain last time. Now, he was having a high fever. Zoe called a doctor over to the suite to give him an injection. Fortunately, that brought down his body temperature significantly in the middle of the night. He was well below a hundred degrees Fahrenheit now.She let out a sigh of relief. Dressed in his pajamas, he leaned on the headboard. He wanted to get up and bathe, but Zoe stopped him. “The doctor said you can only take a bath after your fever goes down! Lie down. I’m

    Mason knew that she was wrestling with herself. She had lost her memory and she was holding her director and doing some naughty stuff with him. Furthermore, she didn’t remember a thing about having sex with someone. He knew that she was scared at that moment. Zoe didn’t know how to take the sheer pleasure he was giving her. When she could no longer take it, she leaned on his shoulder and bit it through his shirt. It pained him a little, but it was a small price to pay, now that he was reunited with her.Lowering his gaze, he stared at her. She was shivering all over. He couldn’t help but lean in her ear and talk dirty to her the way only a husband could talk to his wife, “This isn’t even the real deal. Does it feel this good already?”She simply didn’t have the strength to respond to him. Then, the deed was done. Ignoring his own lust which was still burning, he leaned back on the couch and sipped on the porridge she was feeding him. None of them wanted to ruin this brief momen

    Zoe still had her pride. If he wasn’t going to take the final leap, then she wasn’t about to beg for him to give it to her. It was the dead of night and she was cuddling in his embrace, listening to his heartbeat quietly. “What’s on your mind, Mason?”Holding her tight, he said affectionately, “You’re a little different tonight.”She lied and said, “It’s probably because I’m reluctant to leave Hucksburgh. It’s a beautiful city.”Chuckling, he said, “If you love it, we can stay longer the next time we come here. What do you say if we bring Yanni and Jamie along?”Instead of responding to him, she snuggled up to his neck. She had decided. She’d leave him. He might not be thrilled with it, but he was such a proud man that she was sure he wouldn’t get hung up over a lady. She knew that she wasn’t that important to him. Even if she was gone, Ramona would be there to soothe him and make him happy!However, that didn’t mean she didn’t have any trouble leaving him behind. She ha

    Raindrops splashed on her face and eyelids.What did he just say?Blinking slowly, she raised her head and looked at him. Cupping her cold cheeks, he said in a deep, threatening tone. In fact, he was practically barking at her, “Nobody’s waiting for you! I’m the only one you have now! Look how you filled out single in the marital status box! You simply don’t have to worry about doing something immoral when we’re together. You aren’t disloyal to anyone.”Holding the document in her hand, she pulled it closer to her face. After a brief moment, her lips trembled lightly.She wasn’t married!She didn’t have a husband!However, did that mean she should accept Mason as her boyfriend? Was he serious about their relationship? Or, was he going to dump her after he had had his fun with her?Before she could even ask him about it, he held her delicate cheeks and looked at her solemnly. His eyes were as lustful as they were seductive. Then, he kissed her roughly. Pulling her into hi

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.

    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.

    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
