He turned on the heater and made her favorite brand of coffee, Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee. He said in a deep voice when the coffee’s bitter odor filled up the entire room, “Having trouble sleeping? Is that why you were trying to dig up your past?”She didn’t deny it. He sat across the table. His voice was deeper than the dark of night when he spoke. “Our past isn’t exactly pleasant, Zoe. In fact, it is ugly and full of pain. I can tell you everything about it if that’s what you want.”She remained quiet at that. Then, he said bitterly, “I only have a condition. You can’t leave me.”That was something she could agree to. “It’s a deal!”His voice was husky as he recounted their past. He didn’t try to hide or sugarcoat anything. The full facade of their history was laid bare to her. He told her about Lilith and the night he slapped her in the study. He even told her about the time when he sent her to the rehabilitation center. Then, dawn rolled on and it stopped raining.

She was about to reject it when he held her slender waist. Raising her head, she saw him staring at her profoundly. There was something in his eyes too. It was lust.They locked gazes until both of their breathing became irregular. Both of them were mature adults. How were they not supposed to feel the sultry, electrifying charge dancing in the air?Then, she decided against rejecting him. Her voice was soft and warm. “Thank you.”His eyes grew darker at that. His voice was husky when he said, “We’re a married couple. It’s my duty to make you happy. Is there really a need for a ‘thank you?’”Her heart skipped a beat at that.It was a good thing he let it go. Taking her coat, he put it on her and said, “It’s about time. Let’s hit the road.”This was the first time they would appear in public after she came back to his side.Half an hour later, a black limousine pulled over in front of a hotel. Luke came over to open the backseat door. Mason got out of the car and blocked the

Zoe nodded, “Thanks, Rosemary. I appreciate this information.” The next thing she knew, Noah turned and looked at her. Both of them met each other’s gaze and exchanged meaningful glances. After a brief moment, he rose and walked over. Being a perceptive lady, Rosemary made an excuse and gave them some space. Zoe forced a smile on her face after her friend left and said, “Hi, Noah!”Sitting on the couch across from her, he turned his head sideways and glanced at Gianna before directing his gaze back at her again. Pulling a pack of cigarettes out of his front pocket, he took a cigarette out and tapped it on the table lightly. However, he didn’t light it up. He looked at her for a long time before he said softly, “It’s true, I’m about to divorce Gwynn. But, I’m not doing it because of other ladies. After all, ladies are nothing more than tools I used to spice up my life. They’re not substantial enough to mess up my marriage with Gwynn.”There. He put it all on the table. He

All of a sudden, Eira felt so small and inferior. She watched as Mason held Zoe’s hands and left. He still wouldn’t even throw a glance her way. Nothing had changed. Instantly, she fell apart. She shivered uncontrollably and tried to turn the faucet on to splash some water over her face. However, her hands were trembling so furiously that she couldn’t get a good grip on it. Looking at herself in the mirror, all she could see was a fool. Sbroke into tears. Zoe was wearing jewelry that was worth millions while she wore a cheap dress that still cost her a whole month’s salary to buy. There was a huge gap between them and it was glaringly obvious. Some people were just born into a ridiculously wealthy life. On the other hand, people like her could work for their whole lives and still have gotten no closer to those at the top.She really was nothing but a fool!To think that she had gotten it into her own head that she could drive a wedge between Mason and Zoe. To her surprise,

Zoe felt a little embarrassed. Mason was fondling her, but she wasn’t turned on at all. Perhaps she felt it a little, but it was barely anything. He was a mature man. So, how could he not sense it?They went into the manor and he carried her upstairs. Opening the bedroom door, he put her down on the soft bed. The mattress sunk as she lay on it listlessly and looked at the man above her. He didn’t turn on the lights. Instead, he took off his coat, shirt, and belt in the dark, all while staring at her, monitoring the slightest changes on her face. Then, he leaned over her, kissed her ear passionately, and said in a husky voice, “Are you getting turned on?” He was worried he might hurt her, so he had been holding himself back from going any further.Leaning in close, she kissed him and relaxed her whole body, enticing him to have his way with her.He kept kissing her, his heavy panting a sign of the strenuous effort it was taking him to stop himself from forcing himself into her

That same night, Noah took a flight back to Nihonburg.The lights were still on by the time he made it back to his villa. The entire place was decorated with strings of Christmas lights, from the yard, to the door, and to the living room.Gwynn was wide awake. She was decorating the house while wearing an all-white nightgown. Walking around in bare feet, she was engrossed in hanging up the ornaments.She looked so exquisite, as if she had jumped out of a painting. She might’ve recently given birth to Lorian, but it did nothing to diminish her naivety.Noah looked a little exhausted from the flight. In fact, there was still a faint odor of Gianna’s perfume about him. However, his heart skipped a beat when he saw Gwynn.At that moment, he was thrown back all the way to the distant past. Gwynn was just twenty-two years old back then. She had accidentally bumped into him in a crowd. Some random folk said she looked like a spooked bunny. She didn’t really know how the real world

Once their sex had gone on for some time, he felt a little disinterested in it. So, he finished it rather abruptly.…The deed was done. Rising, Noah regarded the mess on the bed. Gwynn was still lying face down on it. Sultry hickeys decorated her slender shoulder. He had been quite rough with her. Instead of leaving immediately, he sat by the side of the bed and lit a cigarette.Curling herself up, she pulled the blanket over and covered herself. Still wearing a naive expression, she had tears filling up in her eyes. This was how she always looked every time they were done doing it. His eyes grew darker and he stared at her for a long time. Leaning over, he snuffed out the cigarette before going downstairs. After he left, she loosened her grip on the blanket and went into a daze. Then, her heart started pounding. She had a hunch that Noah came here to divorce her in the middle of the night. They might’ve done it, but he wasn’t satisfied at all. In fact, he found it mu

A hint of affection flashed in Noah’s eyes.He seemed to be hesitating. In the end, however, he merely patted her head the way he did with Lorian. She looked so naive and frail now, just like their baby boy.He went downstairs in the middle of the night. Gladys was sitting in the living room restlessly. The moment she noticed him, she rushed over and asked, “What’s going to happen to Ms. Gwynn now?”He knew what she was worried about. Lowering his head, he looked at the divorce agreement and said dryly, “Everything’s going to be the same!”That stunned her. After all, she loved Gwynn very much. Then, she did everything she could to speak up for her mistress. There was a hint of pleading in her tone. “Perhaps you could set her free, Mr. Noah. If I remember correctly, she has an elder brother. I think he’d be pleased to look after her.”The truth was that it would’ve been better if she didn’t bring up Liam. The moment Noah thought about his wife’s brother, an unfeeling coldness

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.

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
