I Refuse to Divorce! Chapter 837
Noah was quite speechless. “Where did you learn all this, Gladys?”She responded matter-of-factly, “I’ve been watching some war films lately. One of the actors, Samuel Nickerson, said the same thing. You see, he’s a versatile actor. He could play many different roles, just not romantic ones. That’s something you do better than him, Mr. Noah.”He didn’t have a good comeback for that. Marisol, who was sitting in the ward, burst into laughter. She pulled Gwynn to the side and whispered, “Did you guys get back together? I noticed there was something different about the two of you. Don’t even think about keeping it from me, Gwynn. I’ve got sharp instincts. I know something happened in Silvercrest!”Gwynn lowered her head and washed the apples. She decided she wouldn’t lie to Marisol. So, she said, “Something did happen in Silvercrest, but it was nothing worth mentioning. I won’t ever get back together with him!”Marisol nodded in understanding. After a brief moment, she pondered a

Gwynn was shocked to the core. She looked at Noah with utter disbelief. She didn’t manage to find her voice until after a brief moment. “Surely, you remember how you ruined Maddox’s hands. On top of that, he and his wife wouldn’t have died so tragically if you hadn’t insisted on sending my donor away to Gianna. Holly wouldn’t have become an orphan either.“Yet here you are, insisting on raising her and changing her last name to yours. Aren’t you afraid that Maddox and Hailey might haunt your dreams every day, Noah?”“I didn’t forget about any of that!” He wore a blank expression and looked right ahead. “Perhaps the universe wanted me to make things right for them by…”She cut him off and said, “You’re not making things right! You’re just selfishly making Holly yours.”Her lips were trembling uncontrollably. However, he didn’t let his heart go soft. He knew she’d hate him deeply, but he’d do anything necessary to blackmail her, even if it meant he had to be this despicable.
I Refuse to Divorce! Chapter 839
Gwynn responded, “Okay.”Then, she bade Grayson farewell. Since the Templetons didn’t invite him for dinner, there was no good reason for him to stay here any longer. Furthermore, he got the sense that they didn’t really want to bring him and her back together. They were only doing this as a courtesy to his family. He looked somewhat miserable when he left the villa.Anderson watched as he left. He asked softly, “Are you sure you won’t regret it? The Sargent family commanded a lot of authority in the culture industry. Grayson is all but sure to have a bright future.”She walked side by side with him. After a brief moment, she said, “I won’t regret it. After all, we’re both from different worlds!”He smiled faintly in response. …After dinner, she went back to her bedroom by herself, pondering problems of her own. Leaning her back on the door, she lowered her gaze and thought about Noah as well as Holly’s condition. She used to be his wife. So, she knew better than anyo

It felt as if someone reached into his heart and clutched it tightly. Noah was both thrilled and disheartened. This meant that he’d be able to see her more often, from here on out, but it also meant that she found him all the more sickening.Well, he didn’t care about that. Really!On the same day, Kim sent a lawyer to go over the legal procedures. From that day onward, Holly was no longer a Herman. Instead, she bore the Sanders family name. From a legal standpoint, she officially became Noah’s daughter. Her documents listed Noah as her father.Once the legalities were complete, Gwynn looked at the name ‘Holly Sanders’ and felt dazed for a long time.…A week later, Holly went through the bone marrow transplant without a hitch. Even Noah’s body didn’t seem to experience any complications after the surgery. Everything went smoothly!Noah treated his little girl with affection and care. He loved her as if she were his own, but none of his actions were able to warm Gwynn’s heart
I Refuse to Divorce! Chapter 841
Noah cupped her supple breasts. His black eyes were fixed on her as he fondled them. Her nose would flutter occasionally when she couldn’t take the pleasure. The sigh of it was enough to make him want to sleep with her. She raised her head slightly and wept softly when she couldn’t take it anymore. “What are you crying for?!” Leaning closer, he wiped away her tears. “Didn’t you feel good back in Silvercrest? We’ve only done it once, but you got twice as wet as you usually are.”At the next moment, she slapped him. It stung his cheek.However, there was a dull pain in his liver. He brushed his lower abdomen instinctively, trying to ease the pain.Gwynn couldn’t take it anymore. Shutting her eyes gently, she said in a broken voice, “I swear I’ll stop coming here if you keep this up. Don’t make me do it, Noah!”“I won’t!”He shifted his body away and sat her up. Her clothes were in a mess and her black hair, which was previously tied up gracefully, fell down, giving rise

Noah didn’t take the pills with water. Instead, he swallowed them dry.The moment they slid down his throat, the pain got worse, but it eased up soon.Once the pain subsided, his eyes were glinting again. Staring at her, he noticed she had fallen apart. He opened the car door, and said in a husky voice, “I’m sending you home!”“I can drive just fine.”“Do as I say, Gwynn!” What he said reminded her of the time when they were newlyweds. She’d even call him in an affectionate tone back then. He’d decide everything for her, and she didn’t have to worry about anything. It started out beautifully. It was a shame that it ended the way it did!Opening the car door, he shoved her into the car and made his way to the driver’s seat. Then, he cranked up the heat and asked her to take off her drenched outfit. Hugging herself, she said dryly, “It’s not far. I don’t have to take it off.”He didn’t insist on it after that. Stepping on the gas pedal, he drove the white BMW toward the Tem

Gwynn walked into the living room in the Templeton villa. The Sargents looked displeased. After all, they saw Noah earlier.Grayson’s mother, Dulce Sargent, didn’t hide the fact that she was extremely annoyed. Her tone was mean and nasty when she spoke. “We’re sincere in asking for your hand in marriage, Gwynn. It’s one thing if you have opinions on my son, but you can’t humiliate him by mingling with a shady man!”Then, she grunted in displeasure and added, “What the hell is this?!”Gwynn rested her gaze on the gifts and said dryly, “Firstly, Noah isn’t some shady character. He’s my ex-husband! Also, I broke up with Grayson a long time ago. There’s no such thing as asking for my hand in marriage. Take these things back. I won’t accept them, nor will I patch things up with Grayson.”Dulce felt mortified when she heard what Gwynn said. Raising her voice, she spoke in a much harsher tone. “Watch your tongue, Gwynn! You should’ve felt honored that my son is willing to take you b

Gwynn, however, never went on another blind date. That didn’t mean she’d take Noah back, though. On the other hand, he was raising Holly well and properly. Truth be told, things were really tough for him. He was working long hours and his liver was constantly in pain or discomfort. He got a lot of prescriptions for painkillers, but the doctor advised him to take it easy and rest more. However, he’d just brush it aside and tell the doctor he was okay!Sometimes, He’d start reminiscing about the past when he was working while fighting through the pain. He’d cast his mind back to what he saw in the Templeton villa when he sent her back home on that pouring day. At times, he’d think about how he used to have the kind of money and power to buy everything a lady would love for Gwynn. Now, however, he could give her nothing. He kept working on rebuilding his wealth. He’d take any project or collaboration he could get his hands on, no matter how small.The night rolled on. He was

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
