Noah smiled bitterly in response.

He took the opportunity to check on the kids when Gladys went away to make breakfast. The morning sunlight shone into the bedroom. Both of them were sleeping soundly.

Holly loved sleeping on her back, but Lorian was accustomed to holding something in his embrace when he slept. It used to be a pillow, but he had a younger sister now. So, he was very content to hold her in his sleep.

Noah sat by the side of the bed.

Reaching out, he brushed the kids’ cheeks. They were warm, pure, and free from the clutches of the real world.

Lorian held his sister tightly.

Holly smacked her lips a little. It seemed like she wanted to drink milk, but her brother was holding onto her. That made her feel so comfortable that she slipped right back into her slumber.

Noah saw it and almost cried.

Then, he left the room. Pulling out a cigarette, he fiddled with it, but he didn’t light it.

Gladys made him some pizza.

It was homemade and looked downright deli

    Noah didn’t find his voice until after a brief moment. Gritting his teeth, he asked, “Did you just say that he was Archibald’s grandson?”The bodyguard had no choice but to say, “Yes, Mr. Noah.”He pondered on it for a while and said gingerly, “We followed the clues and traced it back to the Templeton Villa, but Mr. Achibald heard us and caught us on the spot. Not only did he not reprimand his grandson for his wrongful actions, but he actually chastised you and said he was going to come after you for an explanation!“His men are waiting in a car outside the villa now.“M-Mr. Archibald said Anderson was a virgin. So, he’s holding you responsible for it! Um… Wait a minute. He actually said he wanted Ms. Gwynn to take responsibility for it.”…Noah squinted at the bodyguard. He was the victim here. How could Archibald come knocking on his door when he hadn’t even had a chance to air his grievances? How was this right?The bodyguard stammered, “W-What should we do, Mr. Noah? Mr. A

    The young man looked like he was about twenty-two years old. He was dressed in a white shirt, looking refined and handsome. He was sitting next to Archibald, looking like the most well-behaved young man in the world. Noah had seen the video clip. He knew better than anyone that the young man was the furthest thing from being well-behaved. Suppressing his violent nature, he flashed Archibald a faint smile. “I was made aware that you wanted to see me, Mr. Archibald! What are the odds? I also need you to preside over some matters and announce your verdict.”Putting down his cup of tea, the old man stared at him. Noah didn’t back down from the stare. Then, Archibald smiled. “What’s with the serious face, Noah?! I have your back, no matter what happens! In fact, I’m going to ask my sorry excuse of a grandson to tell you the whole truth. “I’m telling you, I’m going to break his legs if he tries to lie to you. That’ll teach him to seduce a married woman.”The old man might’ve tr

    Half an hour later, the car was driven back to Noah’s villa. He got out of the car and took brisk steps toward the door. At that moment, all he wanted to do was see Gwynn. However, he was also assaulted by all sorts of emotions. He and Gwynn would know no peace, now that the Templetons had set their eyes on the two of them. However, the anxiety that was creeping on him evaporated the moment he opened the bedroom door and saw his wife, who was sleeping soundly on the bed!He and Gwynn shared a storied past.He was just dealing with Anderson. Why was he letting young man mess up his psyche?The Templetons might’ve been powerful, but he was a force to be reckoned with himself. Otherwise, Archibald would have treated him very differently today. In a matter of seconds, he thought a lot about the matter at hand. Walking over to the bedside, he stared at her while she slept. She kept her guard up for the past few days. He hadn’t seen her this relaxed and sleeping on his bed in a

    Gwynn remained quiet. Noah was a little pissed off, but he didn’t want to have another fallout, either. So, he calmed himself and said politely, “Come over here and get some rest! When was the last time you had a good night’s sleep?”Holding a glass of water in her hands, she stood by the window and stared off into space. After a brief moment, she said softly, “I’m going home! It’s been a couple of weeks since I’ve returned to the penthouse. Gladys is going to be worried sick about me.”Frowning, he said, “This is your home. Your actual home.”“We’re separated.” Her voice was dry and bland. “Do you seriously think I’m going to do what you say and subject myself to your whims and fancies simply because you flexed your muscles a few times and ravaged me?“I don’t even have a shred of dignity left in me. What do I have to lose?”He didn’t want to let her go. However, he was wrong about the things he did to Ewan, no matter how he looked at it. So, he released her after he pond

    Gwynn exposed what Eluned truly thought of the matter.The latter got passed off and said, “What a load of crap! It’s your fault that Ewan is in this mess.”Gwynn simply remained calm and collected. She said faintly, “You don’t win a man’s heart by being spiteful and obstinate, Eluned!“You don’t have a place in Noah’s heart, nor did he treat you as anything more than a nobody. Why do you insist on obsessing over him? You could’ve had a happy, blessed life.”Eluned’s lips trembled slightly.The truth was, she knew how right Gwynn was. However, she couldn’t accept it emotionally.She couldn’t accept the fact that Noah thought of her hot, passionate love for him as nothing more than a worthless whim.She had pride, after all. She’d never allow herself to suffer such a miserable ending and leave.…Her lips were still trembling as she stared at Gwynn for a long time.In the end, she left while she covered her face.Silence hung over the empty break corner. Their coffee had long gone cold.

    Gwynn read everything he wrote in silence. She knew he poured some thought into the gift as well as the card he wrote. However, she couldn’t be bothered with them. In the end, she chucked the painting in the storeroom. Then, she tossed the card into the trash can. Someone knocked on the door.At the next moment, her assistant opened the door and came in. She said softly, “One of our customers bought five of our most expensive paintings. She signed and gave us a forty-million-dollar cheque. She also said she wanted to talk to you.”Standing up, Gwynn said, “Okay! I’ll be there soon.”She followed her assistant to the VIP showroom. Marisol’s back was turned to them. She wore a sophisticated dress and had her black hair tied back. The sight was enough to exude her extraordinary elegance. She was just turning around as Gwynn walked over her. Smiling warmly, she looked at the latter and said, “You’ve got to be Gwynn.”Gwynn was stunned. Marisol kept smiling. “I’m Marisol Tem

    Noah had spent a long time in the world of business. Everything had gone smoothly for him thus far. He had never been at a disadvantage.Now, however, it only took Marisol one sentence to stump him. He was upset, but he couldn’t afford to offend the Templetons. Not only did he have to control his temper, but he had to compose himself. “I’m afraid Anderson will have to wait until time itself stops.”She smiled faintly. “Such confidence! It’s no wonder you have such luck with the ladies. After all, the ladies you meet in your business proceedings must love how self-assured you are..”Tough and seasoned people moved cautiously and struck quietly when they clashed with each other.Was he supposed to not notice what she was implying?However, he couldn’t afford to retort. After all, she was merely spelling out the truth. He did play the field for a long time. He used to sleep with countless women and indulged himself in the thriftless and lascivious life. To him, that was the way t

    Gwynn leaned back on the seat. Her eyes were filled with subtle tears. “Your words are sweet, but none of it matters anymore! Aren’t we all familiar with how ‘The Boy Who Cried Wolf’ ends?”Holding the car door latch, she said, “Let me go! I promised Lorian I’d buy him a cake. He’s waiting for me as we speak and he’s not going to sleep unless I get home.”He gulped in response. It was clear what Gwynn was implying here. If he didn’t let her go this instant, then he would be a poor husband and a bad father.In the end, he had to let her leave.…Gwynn dropped by a bakery and bought her son a cake. To her surprise, Lorian wasn’t in the living room when she got home. She thought he couldn’t wait anymore and fell asleep, but Gladys came out of the bedroom, looking worried. “I think Lorian is sick. He’s burning up a little and he’s having trouble sleeping.”Tossing the cake aside, she rushed into the bedroom to check on her son. Holly was sleeping. On the other hand, Loria

    Originally, Lorian and Tegan were going to return to their own place. Due to Ocelotte's situation, they ended up going back to Sanders Residence together.Lorian parked the car and turned to Tegan, speaking gently: "Later, you should talk to Ocelotte. This kid has grown up and never had another girlfriend. He must have been hurt."Tegan softly responded, "Okay."She thought for a moment and murmured, "It seems like Ocelotte hasn't forgotten her."Lorian placed both hands on the steering wheel, his long fingers lightly brushing it. Then, he smiled. "Even so, he won't admit it. Let them handle it themselves. Ocelotte isn't a child anymore."With that, the couple got out of the car.Ocelotte had already gotten out of the car earlier. Lola was now over a year old, and she wobbled her way over. He bent down and picked up his little niece. Lola kissed Ocelotte's cheek affectionately. Then, she wrapped her arms around his neck, looking utterly adored.Lorian and Tegan walked over, an

    Late at night, the city’s neon lights began to fade.A luxurious black limousine slowly stopped at the entrance of the club. The car door opened, and a group of people stepped out. There was an extremely beautiful young girl who was surrounded by people in the center. She wore a pure white little dress, and her slender legs glowed white in the light.Ocelotte remembered that he had once held those slender legs as they fucked through the night. He was in the prime of his youth, and they did it for the entire night. Molly!Ocelotte looked at his past lover coldly. No, she should be called a love scammer. She had gotten what she wanted; she had become a famous actress. Meanwhile, Ocelotte no longer believed in love because of Molly's desire for a million dollars. Now, he was disgusted when he saw her pure appearance.…Ocelotte’s gaze was too blatant, which displeased the staff. “Could you please stop taking photos, mister?”Molly's female assistant, Paisley Perez, stepped for

    Paityn threw everything aside and fully enjoyed everything Jamie gave her.The sky began to drizzle lightly.Jamie carried her into the car. Through the fogged-up car windows, the faces of the man and the woman became blurred.The diamond ring, resting delicately on Paityn’s neck, swayed gently.…Back in the private room of a top-tier luxurious club, Denny was almost in tears. He clung to Lorian’s arm, pleading, “I beg you, Lorian! Please tell Jamie I didn’t mean it! I don’t have the guts to offend Paityn, I was only trying to help him.”Lorian shoved him away, sneering, “You’re lucky he didn’t kill you today. Go back and clean up your mess at the company, don’t say I didn’t warn you. If I offend Jamie, I’d be in deep trouble, let alone you!“I can’t help you, and I don’t want to, Denny. Have you forgotten that Paityn is my sister-in-law? Consider yourself lucky that I didn't work with Jamie to kill you. Now, get the hell out of here.”…After Denny left, the private room rem

    Outside, Jamie still had a temper. He pressed Paityn against the wall and kissed her fiercely in a secluded corner of the club. He took possession of her lips again and again, savoring the rare moment of her compliance.Finally, Jamie ended the kiss after a long while. However, he didn’t pull away. Instead, he kept his forehead against hers. His voice was rough and hoarse. “Why didn’t you resist? Don’t you hate me?”Although Jamie was laced with passion, Paityn, who had spent years with him, understood him. She knew that he cared.Last time, Jamie had blurted out, asking if something had happened between her and Monty. She hadn’t denied it in her anger, but today was different. Today, someone had mocked him publicly.Paityn rested her hand on Jamie’s arm, and spoke softly, “I’ve never slept with anyone else.”…A single sentence for Jamie was like the purest, most elegant music. Suddenly, he pulled Paityn tightly into his arms. He lowered his head to gaze at her delicate face.

    Paityn snapped back to reality. She continued washing her hands, and her voice was soft. “I didn’t think about it! You keep bringing up his age, which means you must care quite a bit. Are you feeling powerless now? Has it come to the point of buying time with money?” Jamie continued to smoke his cigarette slowly. It was truly impossible to change Paityn. He couldn’t understand how Humprehy could tolerate her. Was she not so fierce in front of others? Just thinking about it made Jamie feel extremely uncomfortable. In Jamie's mind, he and Paityn had a child together. A man’s inherent nature is often filled with possessiveness towards women. No matter how many times she married—ten or eight times—he always felt that Paityn was still his woman. They were the original couple. The lighting was soft and alluring, with only the sound of flowing water filling the air. Jamie was captivated by her figure. Paityn wore a black form-fitting long dress with a front slit and six exquisite go

    Only two or three guests had arrived in the lavish private room, and Jamie was one of them. Tegan was busy, while Lorian doted on Tegan and stayed close by, making sure she wouldn’t tire out even a little. The three men who arrived first were playing cards. Just as Paityn walked in, one of them looked up and casually said, "We need one more player, Paityn. You're just in time to fill the spot." Jamie laid his cards down, and the man quickly corrected himself: "I mean… Ms. Paityn." Another person nudged his arm and winked at Jamie, saying, "She's Jamie's wife." Jamie remained quite reserved, giving a light snort in response: "Grow up." At that moment, Lorian approached with a mug and handed it to Paityn. He chuckled as he said, "Don’t say nonsense; Paityn has a boyfriend, who was a 26-year-old young man." Paityn knew he was being playful and didn’t deny it; she wouldn’t be that timid. She took the cup and thanked him. On the other hand, Jamie looked up at Lorian with an am

    After Paityn finished her shower, she dried her wet hair and walked out to the terrace to relax. The night breeze brushed against her face, and she felt very comfortable. To be fair, Carol spent most of the time with the Lockwood family, which made things much easier for her. She often had free time to enjoy tea with Tegan or go shopping. In this regard, Jamie did quite well. However, that was all there was. After the incident with Yara, Paityn thought it over and made the decision to draw a clear line with Jamie. They had different mindsets, and being together would not bring happiness. This time, Paityn had no resentment about the separation; she also wanted to move forward. After two or three months, they indeed no longer had any ambiguity, which she felt was great. Today, Tegan and Lorian introduced Paityn to a young man who was even younger than her at just 26 years old. He was a talented designer with a gentle and kind personality, and he was very attentive and sweet. P

    Yara managed to hold back her emotions and took her handbag to say goodbye to Mason and Zoe. Then, she waved at Carol, who generously packed a little of her favorite cookies for Yara.“Thank you,” Yara said softly, holding the bag of cookies.Carol lowered her head and quickly dug into her meal. “Mommy said I need to eat to grow tall and strong. I want to be tall to protect Mommy.”…Yara walked out of the Lockwood Manor. The lawn was lush and green, with a few adorable fireflies flickering about, creating a charming scene. In the distance, tall trees loomed, casting deep shadows. Under the faint moonlight, Jamie stood there smoking. He was in his 30s and at the prime of his life. He was handsome and sharp like a finely honed blade.Yara had imagined many scenarios with him, but she finally realized it was all one-sided. Jamie found her annoying, and so did the Lockwood family. However, they hadn’t been straightforward about it out of courtesy.Yara had her own pride, and now t

    Jamie was stunned for quite some time. He couldn’t understand why Paityn would go on a blind date. Didn’t she love him? Why would she seek someone else before things were clear between them?Just as Jamie was about to ask, Jennifer sighed and said, “Paityn said she wants to start a new life. She doesn’t want to feel heartbroken anymore, and she doesn’t want to hang on to the past. She said she wants to take a page out of your book.”Jamie felt a surge of anger. He rubbed his nose defensively, insisting, “Don’t listen to her nonsense, Jennifer. I’m not fooling around with anyone outside.”Jennifer usually had a good impression of Jamie, but what mother wouldn’t side with her daughter? She let out another sigh, “So, you’ve really messed up.”Jamie fell silent. As he settled into the back of the black Cullinan, Carol was busy playing with her blocks in the backseat. The sweet little girl was happily playing by herself. She spoke softly without looking up, “Daddy is angry again.”Jami
