At the next moment, Gwynn opened the car door and got out. Ignoring the miserable state of his pants, he stepped out of the car and gave chase to her. However, she ran fast and hopped into a black limousine, which was parked across the driveway. Her car was quickly showered in vibrant colors from the neon lights.There weren’t any traces of longing in her eyes as she sat in it. Perhaps he was wrong. He thought he could blackmail her with Eluned, but he had forgotten an important detail. She was no longer the young lady he used to know. After all, she did something as ruthless as stabbing him in the left chest!Why would someone like Eluned matter to her?He stood in the dark of night for a long time, feeling disheartened. Then, he walked back into his car. He didn’t do anything about his long pants, which were thoroughly drenched. He merely sat in the driver’s seat and thought about Gwynn as he smoked slowly. The moment he finished smoking, he pulled out of the underground p
Eluned finally saw it. Noah intended to use her as a pawn, but she was the fool who thought he really had a thing for her. The bitter truth was that he had never really loved her. Reaching out, he wiped the rearview mirror and said dryly, “I’m going to ask the Human Resources Department to send you a termination letter! You’ll get six months worth of severance pay. That’s that!”With that, he raised the car window. She lost her composure and yelled, “Mr. Noah! Mr. Noah!”However, he had driven away. He despised her. It was true. Maddox had been a big pain in his butt for a long time. He had never liked the man one bit. Be that as it may, Maddox was honest and loyal. That garnered some semblance of respect from him. People like Eluned, however, weren’t worth his attention, not even for a second.It was spring. He went to Gwynn’s gallery at night. He waited for her by the side of the road. Gwynn came out of her gallery at around ten. She clearly saw him, but she pretende
After that, the painter left. Gwynn sat in the coffee shop by herself, intending to finish the rest of her beverage. “Hi, Ms. Gwynn.” She heard a man’s voice next to her.Raising her eyes, she was surprised to see that it was Ewan!He sat across the table. Looking a little miserable, he said, “I broke up with Eluned.”She responded dryly, “I have no interest in whatever’s going on between the two of you.”He got worked up and continued, “Do you want to know why I’ve broken up with her? It’s because of Noah! She was completely different ever since he seduced her. She’s no longer acting like herself. “Now, I’m perfectly fine to break up with her, but I can’t stand the idea that she’s ruining her life for no good reason.”How ironic, she thought to herself. She asked him, “Perhaps you should try taking some sense into her instead, Ewan! With that said, I don’t think you can stop her if she’s set on bringing about her own ruin like a moth to the flame.”He stared at her quiet
Gwynn was dumbfounded. At the next moment, the blindfold obscuring her sight was drenched with her tears. She couldn’t believe this was happening. Her voice was very husky when she asked, “Are you sure you want to do this?”She squirmed fiercely. She let out a scream that tore through the night. “What sort of tragic end must we endure before you stop this madness, Noah?”Holding the back of her neck with his thick palm, he pulled her into his arms. Pressing against her body, he said in a deep voice, “It’s never going to end! We’re going to be together forever, Gwynn!”The time for games was over. He had had enough of indulging in her foolishness. The time had run out on her so-called freedom. From here on out, he’d decided everything. As a matter of fact, the pictures she had taken had long stopped being a threat to him. He had transferred the collaboration to another company. It was all just a cover, though. The collaboration was still firmly under his grasp. She could no
All of this was too mortifying for Gwynn. Noah didn’t love her. He was just asserting his perverted dominance over her. That was all. She did everything she could to not moan, even if she was flooded with tides of immense pleasure. There was even once when the tip of his manhood drove into her deepest part as if he was drilling into her soul. However, she endured all of it with every fiber of her being. She refused to let out a single moan. That’d only mortify her even more. She wasn’t being violated by a man. Instead, she was being ravaged by a monster!After all, only a heartless monster could do what he was doing to her now!Only when she could no longer bear the agonizing torment, did she let out a cry of grief from the deepest part of her soul.No. This can’t be…Why did it hurt so much?Why was the pain this unbearable?!The light in her eyes started fading until there was nothing.Her mind traveled back to when she first approached him. Her heart raced when she ki
Noah asked coldly, “What are you going to do, Gwynn? I trust that you know my temper very well.”She had all but abandoned hope. “I do, but I’m not going to give in to your whims anymore! You’ll know it when I put my plans into action, Noah!”Her voice was husky. “Can you let me go now? Lorian and Holly are still waiting for me at the penthouse. Gladys is going to be worried sick that I haven’t gone back home for the whole night.”He grabbed her arm and said, “I’ll give you a ride.”“Forget about it.” She took a step back and looked at him one last time. She was trying to sear his face into her mind. From today onward, she wouldn’t stop making him pay until one of them dropped dead. She didn’t ask about Ewan. Noah had done what he set out to do. He had humiliated her and turned Ewan’s stomach. He won’t do anything else to the latter. All she did was have a few words with an insignificant man, but Noah still deemed it necessary to put her through this! There were billions of m
Pulling out a gilded bank card, Gwynn said in an extremely husky voice, “Give me the most expensive suite you have. I’ll be staying for seven nights.”The receptionist was rooted to the spot. The most expensive room they had cost thirteen grand a night. Staying for seven nights would mean raking in nearly a hundred thousand dollars in profit. This put a large grin on the receptionist’s face. She got the check-in procedure done in no time. Word reached the hotel manager and he came over to the lobby, intending to take Gwynn to the suite on the top floor himself.“Forget about it! I need some time to myself.”…Gwynn’s face was deathly pale when she headed to the elevator with the room card in her hand. She staggered all the way and looked like she could fall apart at any given moment. The receptionist looked at her manager and said with a sobbing voice, “She looked so heartbroken. Do you think she was tricked by a scumbag and lost the love she thought would last forever?”He
Kim might not have agreed with the way Noah handled things, but this was the only move she had right now. It didn’t take long for Ewan’s incident to die down. It was mainly because he didn’t want to make Gwynn’s life difficult. Before he jumped off the building, he recalled the rumor he had heard all the time. He thought about Maddox and his story.If Maddox could take a plunge to his death with such resolution, then so could he. That tragic night became his nightmare. He could still hear Gwynn’s painful cries in his dreams. He couldn’t live with himself. So, he did it. He jumped off the building. However, he didn’t die from it. He didn’t accept Noah’s check, either. Needless to say, he didn’t go looking for Gwynn anymore. He finally understood that he couldn’t protect anyone. Keeping a distance from her was the only way he could keep her safe.It was the middle of the night. Ewan was holding his phone. Staring at Gwynn’s name in his contact list, he brushed the screen long
