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
The young man’s rock-hard manhood was pressing against her body, but he was a professional. If his clients said it was enough, then he’d stop doing anything. Turning her head sideways, Gwynn took a check and handed it to him. She said softly, “Get yourself to another country with this! Don’t return to Zutriystein until after a couple of years.”The young man took a look at the check and realized it was worth five million dollars. Then, he glanced at her again. He got the sense that this noble lady didn’t call for his service because she felt lonely. There was a trace of deep sorrow in her eyes. Obviously, a stranger such as him could never know what she was thinking. “Thank you.” He said softly and left quietly.Half an hour later, Noah received a text from her. It was a video clip. At the next moment, he hurled his phone at the wall across the room. It was smashed to pieces before it fell to the floor.He was panting heavily and glaring at the broken remains of the phone. H
The sharp edge of the knife punctured Gwynn’s soft skin. Blood seeped out from the cut. However, she was fearless!There was a point in time when her eyes would brim with love the moment she looked at him. Now, however, there was only boundless resentment whenever she laid her eyes on him.Love and hatred could be gone as fast as they came. Such was the way the world worked. “Why?!” Noah’s eyes were bloodshot. He stared at her, not willing to miss out on the slightest changes in her expression. He wished to Heaven that this was all an illusion. She didn’t just sleep with another man. Gwynn was supposed to love him. So, how could she allow herself to sleep with another man?This couldn’t be possible!Something like this couldn’t have happened!She saw the disbelief in his eyes and chuckled lightly. “I did it because I hate you!“I wanted to leave your side! Are you satisfied with this answer?“It was over between us a long time ago!“But, you wouldn’t set me free!
He couldn’t bear to do it!After all, love and hatred were two sides of the same coin.Noah might be consumed by an intense rage, but he could never bring himself to put her life in jeopardy. His face was wet as he buried it in her neck. He exhaled warm breath onto her cold skin, making her tremble slightly.His voice was tinged with helplessness. Drowned in sorrow, he begged her, “Tell me this isn’t real, Gwynn! Tell me you weren’t unfaithful to me. Tell me you doctored the video! Please, Gwynn!”She leaned against the cold ceramic tile. His reactions were nothing but absurd to her. ‘Are you hurt, Noah?‘Well, you put me through the same kind of anguish countless times. I was still naive and innocent back then. That first whiff of someone else’s perfume hurt me so much. That was when the trust between us crumbled. ‘Do you think what I put you through now compares to the horrible things you did to me?’She didn’t move at all. She simply let him hold her. After a long ti
From time to time, Noah got so wasted that he’d simply sleep in one of the private rooms at the club. Once he woke up, it’d feel as if he just had a bad dream.Tonight was no exception. He didn’t want to go home because he didn’t want to see the cold expression on her face. He didn’t need to deal with her frigid attitude now. For that matter, he had also lost interest in having sex with her. Something felt off when he did her that day. Staring at the whiskey in his glass, he chuckled coldly. She knew just how to make him sick!He drank himself to a stupor and lay down on the black and gold bar counter, murmuring Gwynn’s name. Then, someone patted him gently. “It’s you, Gwynn.” He was lingering between the lines of unconsciousness and soberness. The hair on the back of his neck stood up as he called out her name. At the next moment, his blurry vision started to clear and he saw who actually stood before him. It was Gianna. He lost interest in the matter of a second. Pour
Kim was roused from her sleep. She clambered out of her bed and made her over to the police department to bail Noah out. She wasn’t aware that it was her director who started the whole mess. It gave the officer a wonderful opportunity to extort her. She had to fork up two hundred thousand dollars to bail him out. The young man, who had been punched several times, taunted Noah, “Do you think you’re above us because you’re rich and handsome?! Fat lot of good it did you, your wife still left you. “I bet she did it because she couldn’t stand how unreasonable and domineering you are! You fucking deserved it, you asshole!”Noah charged at him, fully intending to pound the life out of the young man. Kim tried but failed at pulling him back. In the end, the police chief had to hold him from behind as he tried to comfort Noah, “You have to calm down, Mr. Noah! I know you’re massively wealthy and you don’t care about forking up some money, but you’re a public figure. “If you go vi
