Love Is Never Eternal Chapter 28
The moment the divorce cooling-off period ended, Anne finalized her divorce with Connor.After the divorce was finalized, she felt an overwhelming sense of relief.Connor, standing beside her, noticed her smile and felt an uncomfortable pang in his chest."How about a farewell meal?"Anne shook her head. "No need.""We’ve been married for three years. We’ll likely run into each other in the future."Connor did not finish his sentence. He was still clinging to the hope of a new beginning with her.Anne gave him a meaningful look.Moments later, Walter pulled up in his car. He rolled down the window, waved at Anne, and peered at them with slightly narrowed eyes behind his sunglasses.Just as Anne was about to get in the car, Connor grabbed her wrist. "My parents are going abroad. They wanted to invite you to the house for a meal.""I already ate with them yesterday."Connor froze, his expression betraying his surprise.Anne sighed. "If you hurry home now, you might still catc
Love Is Never Eternal Chapter 1
Connor Biddle's long-lost first love had been found.When he received the call from the police, he rushed out of the office in a panic, leaving his jacket draped over the chair.The business partners discussing a new collaboration froze in surprise, turning unanimously toward Anne Maddison."It's fine, let's continue," said Anne, retracting her gaze from Connor's disappearing figure. She offered a poised smile and seamlessly picked up where Connor had left off. "Now, about the investment for the new project..."An hour later, Anne personally saw the partners off.Returning to the office, she picked up her phone to check it, but there was no message from Connor.Anne called him. The phone rang a few times before a girl's voice answered."Hello?""Where's Connor?" asked Anne after a pause."He's in the kitchen, cooking," the girl replied, sounding slightly flustered.Anne's grip on the phone tightened involuntarily, and suspicion began to rise in her mind. The next moment, Conn
Love Is Never Eternal Chapter 2
Listening to Anne's choked question, Connor found himself momentarily speechless.Felicia, noticing he was still on the phone, walked up behind him and wrapped her arms around him. "Are you done? I'm hungry."He instinctively ended the call with Anne.Staring at the darkened screen of his phone, Connor hesitated for only a moment before pulling down Felicia's hands to hold them. "I'm done," he said.The dishes he prepared were all Felicia's favorites. Connor watched her eat with a smile, glancing at the clock out of the corner of his eye.It was nearly ten o'clock at night.The entrance remained quiet.At that moment, Anne's car had pulled into the neighborhood, but she sat there, unmoving.Even though she was Connor's wife, she felt like a thief spying on someone else's happiness.When she was abroad, she did not actively seek out news about Connor, yet friends would still update her.Connor had brought Felicia into their social circle. Because of Anne's presence, no one had

"Where are you?"Anne did not respond, and the cool breeze poured in through the slightly open car door.Even such a small sound was caught by Connor. His voice, laced with certainty, asked, "Did you go home?"He immediately added, "Don't come in, wait outside for me."Just through the phone, Anne could even tell that Connor was putting on his coat. His footsteps were hurried, but it seemed he was trying to stop her from entering, afraid that Anne would frighten Felicia.Connor left the villa, and only when he reached the corner did he spot Anne's car.Hearing the footsteps, Anne looked over at him. Her gaze was filled with disappointment, but more than that, it was calm.Connor's temples throbbed painfully twice. That look in her eyes was exactly the same as the one she had given him the night he forcefully kissed her after her coming-of-age ceremony."I'll take her away tomorrow," said Connor, pulling open the car door. In a tone that suggested negotiation, he asked, "Can you
Love Is Never Eternal Chapter 4
Connor silently followed Anne.The phone kept ringing incessantly, making the quiet room feel tense.Connor listened to the sound of water running from the bathroom, took a long drag from his cigarette, and eventually answered the call."Connor, aren't you coming back tonight?""I'll bring you breakfast tomorrow morning," he replied.The indirect rejection made Felicia feel a bit wronged, and she cautiously said, "But I'm scared alone."The sound of water in the bathroom stopped.Connor tightened his grip on the phone, hesitated for a moment, and then reassured Felicia, "Be good. If you're scared, go to sleep early."He then hung up the phone and threw it onto the bed. He knew that if he hesitated for another second, he would not be able to stop himself from walking away.When Anne came out, Connor proactively went to help her dry her hair.As he gazed at her face, he felt a bit dazed. It seemed like it had been a long time since they had been intimate.He slowly bent down,

"Have you thought it through?"Walter sat across from Anne and carefully handed her a set of cutleries after he had finished preparing them."Anne, even though you signed a prenuptial agreement, if you can't provide evidence of Connor's wrongdoing, the lawsuit to make him leave empty-handed might not be successful."Although Anne had agreed to the marriage for the sake of a family alliance, she was not naive enough to give up everything.They had signed a prenuptial agreement stating that if Connor made any serious mistakes during their marriage, he would have to leave with nothing in the event of a divorce.Anne took a sip of water and replied calmly, "I’ll get the evidence."Felicia still thought they were just a couple, and that the things that should happen between a normal couple would eventually happen. Connor would not reject her.Walter could see what Anne was thinking from her expression.A surge of anger rose within him, and he almost wanted to rush over and punch Conn

Walter had once pursued Anne.Back in high school, they had been deskmates for a while and even participated in competitions together. However, Anne had been resolute and had politely turned him down. When Walter learned that Connor and Felicia were dating, he even got into a fight with Connor.He could not understand how Connor could give up someone as amazing as Anne.Later, when Connor and Anne got married, Walter even asked Anne in front of Connor if she wanted to leave with him.As for Connor, seeing them sitting together made him lose all composure. Ignoring Felicia, who stood beside him, he stormed up and slapped Walter's hand away."Speak up!" Connor demanded, pulling Anne up from her seat when she remained silent."Speak about what?" Anne steadied herself by leaning on the table, avoiding falling into Connor's arms."Maybe you should let Ms.Yule behind you have a word with me?" Anne's tone was indifferent.Felicia's expression darkened as she watched the two of them st
Love Is Never Eternal Chapter 7
"She…"Connor almost revealed the truth, but seeing Felicia sobbing uncontrollably in his arms, he recalled the doctor's words.'Her emotions are very unstable right now, and she's heavily dependent on you. Try not to provoke her, or it might lead to psychological issues.'If it had not been for him taking Felicia on that trip, she would not have gone missing.In the end, the responsibility still lay with him.Connor let Felicia cling to him, watching Anne's figure disappear from sight.Carrying Felicia in his arms, he felt a mix of guilt and irritation. "She has nothing to do with me. Let me take you home."A flash of jealousy passed through Felicia's eyes, but she obediently wrapped her arms around Connor's neck and nodded.…"Are you okay?" Anne pulled some tissues from the car and carefully wiped the corner of Walter's mouth."Anne, what Connor said earlier…""Walter," Anne interrupted, taking a step back. "How soon can you draft a divorce agreement?"Her words created a

Anne immediately instructed her assistant to remove all trending topics about her and Connor.Realizing he had been used by Anne once again, Connor slumped to the ground in defeat. "Anne, you're too ruthless."Ruthless? Anne did not think so.Felicia had already tried to take her life. All she wanted was her money back and to see Felicia in prison.Watching Felicia being taken away by the police, Anne quietly breathed a sigh of relief.She was not entirely sure Felicia would show up.When pushed to the brink, desperate people were often willing to take risks.Instead of living like a rat in the gutter every day, Felicia had gambled on Connor's lingering feelings.It turned out Connor did, indeed, still soften for her.Back home, Connor locked himself in his room.Anne did not bother with him. She waited a few days until the verdict for Felicia was out before forcing the door open.Connor had barely eaten for days. He looked utterly desolate and lifeless."Most of the money h

Felicia pulled Connor into a corner."Connor."It had been a long time since they last met, and Felicia looked much more haggard.She looked around nervously, and when her eyes met Connor's gaze filled with hatred, her body trembled."How dare you come find me?"The police and her father's creditors were all looking for her. Felicia was clever enough to know how dangerous her sudden appearance was.She knew that, of course.However, it was not just these people looking for her.Anne was also searching everywhere for news about her and was sending her information in real time to those creditors.Felicia could not think of anyone else who could help her except Connor.Seeing the two of them returning to school together for the speech, so affectionate, Felicia could not sit still.If she begged Connor, maybe he would relent.On the other hand, once he reconciled with Anne, he would only side with Anne and push her further down."Connor." Felicia grabbed Connor's arm. "I had n

Anne left early and came home late every day, sometimes staying at the company overnight.It was only at Connor's home that he finally experienced what loneliness felt like.Even when she saw Connor applying medicine to his wound, Anne did not give him a second glance, only reminding him indifferently, "Don't make a mess of the house."She endured until the day of the speech. Connor changed into a sharp suit and waited for Anne in the living room."I've sent the speech to your phone.""Okay."Once they got into the car, they exchanged the first words in three days.Right after speaking, however, Anne lowered her head to look at her notes.Connor, frustrated, swallowed his emotions. When they got out of the car and saw reporters, he immediately grabbed Anne's hand.Anne instinctively tried to pull away, but something seemed to occur to her, and she froze, instead waving enthusiastically at the reporters.Their childhood marriage, paired with their matching looks and family bac

"Didn't you eat?" Anne asked casually, looking at the untouched meal box on the table."No." Connor clutched the bedsheet tightly under the blanket, forcing himself not to ask her accusatory questions.Anne nodded and did not say anything further.Sitting in the chair, she took out her phone. For the past few days, this was their routine. Connor wanted her company, and she would sit with him for an hour without saying a word, then leave when the time was up.What Connor longed for was the way they used to be, spending time together as before."Anne, I want to be discharged."Anne glanced at his wound, indifferent. "Do as you wish."Connor could not bear her attitude and complained, "Can't you care about me even a little?"He had been thinking about her eating with Walter, so he had not been able to eat a single bite. He was still hungry, too.Anne looked at him sincerely. "Don't forget, I still have two and a half million with Felicia. I've been more than patient with you."C

Connor remained hospitalized, so Anne temporarily stepped into his role at work.Although she had agreed to stay with Connor for a month, she clearly did not take it seriously. She could not bring herself to care for him as she once had.Connor sent her messages every few hours.[Remember to eat breakfast.][Have you had lunch? I had oats again. It's too bland. I don't like it.][Can you come to the hospital to have dinner with me after work?][My wound hurts.][Anne, I miss you.]Anne read every message but did not reply to any of them.At the end of the workday, Connor immediately called her."What is it?" she asked, rubbing her tired forehead, her tone impatient.Connor trod carefully. "Anne, will you come to the hospital and have dinner with me?"Still unable to leave the hospital, he did not dare to bother her too much, afraid of annoying her. Yet, nearly a week of the month had passed, and every day, Anne only visited briefly before leaving.The lack of interaction l

Anne visited her father first. She felt relieved when she confirmed his injuries were not that serious.She had already asked her assistant to inform both families of everything that had transpired.Seeing the worry etched on her parents' faces, Anne forced a small smile. "Mom, Dad, don't worry. I will divorce him."After a few more reassurances, she made her way to Connor's hospital room."Anne." Connor's mother, with reddened eyes, held Anne's hand but could not say a word.Knowing the mess her son had created, she could not bring herself to ask for Anne's forgiveness. She could only feel grateful that the one injured tonight was not Anne. Otherwise, they would not have known how to face her."Mom, Dad," said Anne, patting Connor's mother's hand and glancing at Connor's father, who looked as if he wanted to speak but could not.She tried to return the bracelet Connor's mother had given her. "Don't worry. After the divorce, I'll still visit you often."Connor's relationship wi
Love Is Never Eternal Chapter 21
Anne's birthday party had only close friends and family in attendance.The parents of both families finally gathered together, and Connor's mother gave Anne a diamond bracelet.In the past, she would not have thought much of it. However, as they were on the brink of divorce, accepting such an expensive gift felt inappropriate.Connor noticed her hesitation and held her hand, subtly preventing her from removing it.He had a hunch that Anne would bring up the topic of divorce that evening.So, when someone asked when they planned to have children, he preemptively replied, "As soon as Anne agrees, we'll have one immediately."Anne smiled ambiguously, about to deny it, when a man suddenly burst into the room with a knife.The incident happened so abruptly that no one had time to react.The man charged straight at Anne, the knife poised to strike her shoulder. Amid panicked screams, Connor turned and shielded Anne in his arms.Blood splattered everywhere.Anne used all her strengt

"Have you met him?"Anne calmly pushed the coffee toward Felicia, but Felicia slapped it away, spilling a few scalding drops onto the back of Anne's hand."What do you want, Anne?"The sight of that house had dredged up terrifying memories for Felicia, causing her to shiver uncontrollably."The house Connor gave you, give it back to me."The house worth millions was not something Anne was willing to part with so easily."And before our divorce is finalized, you're not allowed to take any money from him.""Fine." Felicia's demeanor shifted entirely, shedding her previous frailty."After we divorce, you cannot marry Connor within a year."Remarrying so soon after the divorce would inevitably draw attention. Anything that could impact the company, Anne was determined to nip in the bud."I thought you'd tell me not to marry him at all."Anne smiled indifferently. "You and he are a perfect match. Both of you are ungrateful and fickle."Besides, if they truly intended to marry, C
