Noah closed the door.Sitting by the side of the bed, he laid his palm on Lorian’s belly and chuckled. “Look at his belly! Does he eat and drink this much every night?”Gwynn didn’t say anything to him. She merely continued to apply skincare. He was aware that she was upset with him. Well, he fully intended to make her happy again. So, he praised Maddox’s daughter as well. “Gladys did a good job raising them, huh? Even Holly looks well and fine. I really have to reward her when I get the chance.”She still didn’t say anything to him.However, that did nothing to diminish his enthusiasm. On the contrary, it made him all the more committed to making her his again. Walking over to her, he hugged her from behind and looked in the mirror. His voice was soft. “Where do I sleep tonight?”She looked at him in the mirror. After a brief moment, she said dryly, “There’s a guest room next door. You’re sleeping there.”“Show me the way.”Leaning in close to her ear, he murmured with a
“Really?” Leaning on his shoulder, Gwynn said, “Your words don’t mean anything to me, Noah! I need to catch some sleep. If you’re still hungry for sex, then I’ll call up some prostitutes for you. They’re legal here.”Lowering his head, he stared into her eyes profoundly. Clearly, he was upset at what she said.Ignoring him, she tugged her sleeping robe and exited the guest room in the dark of night. He cast a glance at the door. Gwynn had changed, indeed. If this had happened in the past, she would’ve fought tooth and nail to avoid having sex with him. Now, it seemed she could put aside her petty feelings and give him a handjob just to keep him quiet. What on earth was going through her mind?…Morning rolled on. Gwynn freshened up and came downstairs. Noah was playing soccer with his son in the yard while Holly was sleeping under the sun in the crib. Then, the little girl stretched, looking as comfortable as she could be.It was a beautiful sight to behold. Her newl
Gwynn stared at him. After a brief moment, she said dryly, “You’re ruthless, Noah! You’re even willing to sacrifice Lorian to further your own goals! I guess it’s all in a day's work for you. After all, he was merely born because you couldn’t control your lust. He’s the same as a pet, as far as you’re concerned!”Noah looked at his son, whose head was covered with sweat from playing soccer. He stared at him for a brief moment before he tore his gaze away. “I was going to raise my son that way, to begin with. I’m merely letting you raise him because you loved keeping him with you. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have had such a happy childhood.”“Am I supposed to thank you for that? You keep making all these claims, but do you even have time for Lorian? I think you’ll be too busy sleeping around!”…Gwynn’s words irritated him. However, he didn’t get mad at her. Looking at her, he smiled softly, “No one else will come between us.”She didn’t believe what he was saying, nor did she car
Gwynn couldn’t care less about it. Time passed by and it was after New Year. Noah had to attend a business dinner. After all, his important business associates would be there. It would’ve been unseemly if he didn’t show himself.Moreover, he hadn’t seen one of them for a long time. Gregory. This man used to love Zoe. He even fought with Mason once. Gregory had been married once. However, he couldn’t get along with his wife after less than a year. So, they got divorced amicably. Now, he was single and available. As he poured himself a glass of liquor, he scanned Noah from head to toe.He couldn’t believe Noah had returned to Zutriystein. Now, he was not a decent man. On the contrary, he loved sowing chaos. So, he sent a text to Liam, who was overseas right now. “Noah has returned to Zutriystein.”After that, he tucked his phone away and started drinking shots with Noah. Noah had been controlling his desire to drink recently. If he had no choice and had to drink, he’d on
The whole debacle went on until two in the morning. Noah returned to the villa and sat in the car for a while. It was eerily quiet around here. All of the lights inside were turned off. The few lamps on the porch were the only source of light and they looked especially lonely in the cold night.After a brief moment, he opened the car door and walked into the villa. It was dim indoors, but he didn’t turn any lights on. He merely climbed the stairs in the dark. A gentle moonlight cascaded into the bedroom. Gwynn was sleeping soundly with both of the kids by her side. As usual, there wasn’t a place for him in the seventy-eight-inch bed. Standing before the bed, he loosened his tie underneath the cold moonlight. Then, he took off his suit and white shirt. Gwynn caught the scent of alcohol and opened her eyes.“Are you awake?” Staring at her, he spoke in a cold, emotionless tone. Before she could respond to him, he pinned her on the bed. She tried to squirm, but he pinned her
Gwynn was stunned the moment she heard her brother’s name. Lowering his head, he looked at her. He noticed a hint of misery in her eyes, which alluded to her feminine charm. It pulled him in, making him lower his head and kiss her. She was dazed.For a while there, she forgot that she should’ve fought back. She didn’t react until after he pressed his body against hers again while his lips were still sealing hers. Then, she curled up and stopped him from advancing. Her voice trembled. “Liam’s here.”Holding her lean shoulders, he popped a boner. Leaning into her ear, he said in a husky voice, “We’re legally married. So what if he’s here?”Pushing him away, she said, “I’m not as shameless as you are.”Before he could retort, she raised her voice and said to the servant outside the study, “Tell Liam to give us a minute! Tell him Noah will be there to see him soon.”The servant left and did her bidding. Propping himself up, he bared his chest, which was fair but firm. She was
Liam tried to climb to his feet, but he fell on the carpet listlessly. “Liam!” Gwynn ran over and helped her brother up. Once Liam managed to find his footing, she couldn’t help but call out to him again, heartbroken, “Liam!”At the next moment, tears rolled down her cheeks. She was the one who refused to listen to her brother and secretly got together with Noah. That was why she was in too deep now. They were siblings, but they hadn’t managed to see each other for such a long time. They alone knew just how difficult and heartbreaking it was. Liam was bruised and swollen. Touching her affectionately, he didn’t even blame her one bit, just as always. “I’m taking you away now.”However, she shook her head lightly. It wasn’t just about the evidence Noah had. She couldn’t possibly leave, just like that, because she needed to think about Lorian and Holly. She had been married to Noah for a long time, she knew better than anyone what heinous acts he was capable of.He wanted to
Noah watched as they hugged each other. They might’ve been siblings, but that didn’t stop him from feeling jealous of Liam. Gwynn should only ever embrace him and no one else. The snow started melting as the sunlight beat down on them. Noah and Liam stared at each other fiercely, fully intending to fight again. Realizing that they were about to have another scuffle, Gwynn gripped her brother’s sleeves and begged softly, “Don’t do it, Liam!”His heart softened whenever he heard his sister’s pleas. Unwilling to make things difficult for her, he looked at Noah and sneered. “Come right at me if you still harbor hate for me, Noah. You’re a lousy excuse of a man to take it out on ladies!“Gwynn has said that she wanted to stay. So, I’m not going to force her to leave. However, if you keep sleeping around and let the other ladies hurt her, then I’m going to make you pay, even if it means sacrificing myself. Don’t test my patience!”Noah sneered right back at him. “Farewell, Liam!
