Love in the dark Chapter 303 Up to You
Laurence thought he was already going easy on Zoey. He wasn't doing anything wrong by not agreeing to a divorce since the contract hadn't expired yet. He even felt that he was already being very forgiving by not making a fuss about the hotel incident. He silently scrolled through their chat history while suppressing the displeasure in his heart. She still hadn't replied to him. He knew he couldn't keep staring at his phone, waiting for a reply. He'd already been more patient than usual that day. After a pause, he texted her. "I'll pick you up tomorrow." He felt worried, but she wouldn't know what he was worried about.Zoey pretended as if she hadn't seen Laurence's text inquiring when she would return. She went downstairs to make a bowl of instant oats, and just as she was about to boil the water, her phone buzzed again. She switched it on and saw another text from him. She already expected him to say something like that, but she really didn't have the mood to deal with him, even

Laurence closed his eyes to calm himself down for a moment before immediately opening them again. After he calmed down, he surprisingly couldn't find anything else to say for a while.What should he say? That wouldn't slap her anymore? He was probably an utterly evil man in her eyes at that moment. Should he apologize and tell her he regretted slapping her out of impulse that day?The more he said he was sorry, the more those words would lose their value.Laurence's lips were tightly pursed. He took a deep breath and felt like his chest was throbbing in pain. It was a kind of faintly discernible, sharp pain that was the most torturous.His face was pale as he circled back to the original topic. "When are you coming back?"Of course, Laurence knew her mother was still in the sanatorium, so it was impossible for her to go to a faraway place and not return to Northwell. However, just a few short days were hard for him to bear. He had to know her itinerary well to feel at ease.Zoe

His words amused Zoey. He spoke with such justification as if she had done something that wronged him.Her wrist was in pain because of his grip. He pinned her arms tightly against the wall behind her; as if he wanted to bore them into the wall. Her tone was harsh as she challenged, "Do you have a say in who I date?"Shawn regained his senses when he heard her voice. Yes, he indeed had no say in it.Zoey kicked him, then broke her wrist free when he was distracted. "Even if someone should check up on me, you're not the one to do it, Shawn."He was neither her husband nor her friend. He was nothing to her. At that moment, she wanted to avoid him like the plague.Shawn clenched his jaw tight. His fury burned inside him. He could tell that she hated him more than she could endure. If he did not actively seek her attention, she would not want to see or talk to him at all.Shawn did not answer her directly. With a stiff expression, he smirked and asked, "Is that lawyer a good person?

Shawn kneeled on the floor. He gripped the edge of the bed so hard that his fingers felt like they were about to snap.The severe pain in his chest happened too suddenly. At first, it was only a dense and mild prickling. However, the pain suddenly became severe. He sat hunched on the floor as he couldn’t get up.It felt like his organs were spasming.He should let go. He should stop staring at the photo. However, he was reluctant to look away. He couldn’t control his gaze. His brain couldn’t control his eyes.Even when the pain was almost unbearable, he still wanted to stare at the girl with a bright smile in the photo. He stared at that face stubbornly and tried his best to recall something.His mind was completely blank.When he tried to think deeper, the pain became so severe. He felt he could die any second. Shawn groaned in pain, and his vision blacked out. He had an extremely high tolerance for pain, but he could not stand the searing pain. He leaned against the bed, cove

“Spare me, Mom, please!” Shawn’s voice was weak. It was as if he had used the last of his energy. Shawn stopped in his path and held himself up with his arm on the wall. Letting out an agonized look, his brain hurt immensely each time he tried to recall something. His assistant saw him stop and asked, “Sir, are you okay?” Shawn rubbed his brow. “I’m fine.” He was certain that he had never called his mother “Mom”. He would never use such an affectionate term and had always referred to her as “Mother”. “What could have driven me to kneel before her and beg her to spare me? She must have done something to me,” he thought. Shawn’s expression turned cold. He stiffened his impassive face and ordered the bodyguards standing behind him, “Bring over more men tomorrow.” “Yes, sir.” Shawn sat in the hospital corridor for a long while. Hanging his head, he looked inscrutable. It was already 2 am, but he wasn’t sleepy and wasn’t planning on returning home to sleep.“I sho

Shawn squatted on the steps as cigarette smoke curled around him, shrouding his profile. He looked desolate. Zoey had never seen him look so fragile. Without approaching him, she stood beneath the lights.Shawn heard her footsteps and he slowly lifted his head to stare deep into her eyes. She couldn’t read his expression.He extinguished his cigarette, getting up slowly. "Do you know that I'm sick?" His question came out of nowhere, and Zoey was baffled. She thought his affectionate tone wasn't appropriate, considering their relationship. Could he have finally remembered the flaws of his character? Zoey thought he was acting weirdly."I know." Zoey stood a distance from him. "Did you just remember?" Shawn's lips pressed into a thin line. He didn't tell her he only remembered chaotic fragments, which were worse than dreams. At least dreams were clear and cohesive, like a story. The disjointed snippets were making him dizzy."Yeah.""That's good," Zoey said casually. She added

Laurence couldn't refute what Zoey said, so he pursed his lips and remained silent.Zoey wasn't trying to shift the blame onto him, but he was indeed the cause of everything.She remembered many things he used to tell her, such as not to overestimate a man's sympathy and that even a remorseful and heartbroken man had his limits.She'd only stated the facts with no intention of attacking him. She was the one who'd gotten beaten and needed to wear a hearing aid. Her words couldn't harm him in the slightest."Zoey." After a long silence, Laurence suddenly called out to her.She didn't respond. Her thoughts always wandered far away in moments like these. Suddenly, she remembered something. Laurence rarely called her by her name. He used to call her "Miss Jenner", which drew a clear line between them."It seems that you've learned something from being around me." Of course, Laurence knew all too well that his words were hurtful sometimes. It was just the way he was—merciless and sharp

It wasn’t that Zoey held a grudge. Rather, it was because she didn’t hold grudges that Sarah had been able to bully her into dust.She remembered everything that Laurence had said. She’d listened to those words in a daze at the time, her heart breaking into pieces that could never be mended. She'd never thought she could one day say those words back to him.At the time, Laurence believed his words made sense. “There would be no love involved.” It lessened a lot of trouble. He didn't forget; he just didn't like her then. When he'd blurted it out, he hadn't felt anything, not even when he saw her face turn pale. All he'd done was tell the truth, and the truth hurt. He'd thought she was weak for not being able to accept the truth. Now that it was his turn, he finally understood how it hurt. "Move.""No." No one was better than Laurence at being childish. Afraid she might say something hurtful again, he sealed her lips with a kiss.Zoey's struggle was futile. Even when her nails cu

Love in the dark Chapter 757 Got Everything Figured Out
Ryan had a reason for barging into the room. He thought he had seen something he shouldn't have.He had witnessed Zoey's relationship with his brother over the past few years. He hadn't thought so many things would happen between them when they got married.In the end, Laurence fell for her.The high and mighty guy had willingly become the loser for that woman.Zoey could tell from Ryan's reaction that he had misunderstood. Without bothering to explain, she walked straight out of the office.Laurence ignored Ryan, too. He treated Ryan as if he didn't exist and strode out the door after Zoey. Ryan was left alone in the office, dumbfounded.Laurence's assistant greeted him politely. "Are you here for ..."Ryan was still in a daze. He snapped to his senses and said, "I'm here to see my brother!""Mr. Scott just left.""I saw that.""Then, is there anything else I can do for you?"Ryan turned around to leave but returned halfway. He put his arm around the assistant's shoulder as
Love in the dark Chapter 756 Came at the Wrong Time
Zoey could feel the gazes on her as she stepped into the office. There were hardly any familiar faces left in the office.She secretly sighed in relief. She would have felt awkward and at a loss if she had to face the inquisitive gazes of acquaintances.Laurence held Zoey's hand, and she had no choice but to let him do as he pleased. She couldn't resist him.They entered Laurence's office. His office looked cold and plain, just like he was.Zoey noticed he was still grabbing her wrist. She took a deep breath and asked, "Where should I sit?"Perhaps surprised by her sudden cooperative attitude, Laurence raised an eyebrow. After a pause, he kindly reminded her, "The door is locked."Without a key, the door couldn't be opened from the inside.Zoey tried to pull her wrist away. "Got it."Laurence watched her sit on the sofa, and he relaxed slightly. He asked politely, "Would you like something to drink?"Zoey was momentarily lost in thought. She replied, "Warm water will do"Laur
Love in the dark Chapter 755 Opening Up
Zoey was composed. She didn't seem worried about Laurence investigating her past in Novarvia. But deep down, she wasn't confident.Laurence had long lost any moral boundaries. Despite knowing she was married, he showed no concern about interfering in her marriage. He would likely become even more audacious and unrestrained if he discovered that her marriage was fake.Just the thought of it gave Zoey a headache. She never thought getting rid of someone would be so difficult, even if they held a certain position of power. Shaking him off became increasingly challenging.Lost in her contemplation, Zoey failed to notice the driver had changed direction. When she finally realized, the car was parked at the entrance of the Scott Group.Zoey pondered briefly. She thought the driver was sending Laurence off. She waited patiently and remained seated in the car.The man beside her calmly looked at her and raised an eyebrow. "Aren't you getting out?"Zoey furrowed her brows. "Why should I?"
Love in the dark Chapter 754 Don't Let Me Find Out
Sarah always seemed like she was thriving. Looking radiant, she hooked arms with the man beside her. She no longer looked as worn as she had a few months ago.Laurence was acquainted with the man beside her. His gaze was indifferent, showing neither surprise nor much emotion. Firmly grabbing Zoey's hands, Laurence wouldn't let her leave his side.Laurence had no intention of greeting Sarah or engaging with William. He held Zoey's hand, seemingly aware she didn't want to deal with them either. He turned his face to her and said, "Let's go."Zoey didn't refuse. They left quietly.This time, Sarah didn't stop Zoey. She usually tried provoking her.Once they were far away, Zoey immediately shook off Laurence's hand. He saw her furrowed brows and the undisguised disgust in her eyes. She must have hated Sarah a lot. She didn't even want to see her.Laurence explained, "I didn't know she would be here today."Zoey ignored him and walked ahead. The man behind her suddenly circled he
Love in the dark Chapter 753 A Chance Encounter
Zoey had no idea whether she was acting out of spite or being stubborn, but she arrived at the restaurant as promised. The restaurant had a private courtyard that offered great privacy. She didn't want to cause the person she was meeting any trouble. Neil's wife was once Zoey's client. Both parties were pleased with the business transaction. Zoey didn't like socializing, but she was out of alternatives. She forced herself to befriend Neil's wife. She had something to ask of Neil because her passport application had been dragging on without any progress. Zoey didn't want to lose control of her emotions again. She could still keep her cool if she stayed away from Laurence. To her surprise, Laurence had found out what she had been secretly up to. It was like he had installed a bug on her. She was horrified. "I've heard a lot of good things about you, Ms. Jenner." "You're too kind, Mr. Jackson." Neil was nicer than she expected. He didn't act superior or avoid the topic. Inst
Love in the dark Chapter 752 Hint
Zoey ended the phone call. Without having to ask, Zoey knew what was going on when she saw Laurence. Needless to say, Laurence had taken the liberty to take the morning off for her. She couldn't be bothered to be angry. Instead, she felt numb as it had happened too many times before. Zoey looked down at her changed pajamas and turned to the man by the bed. She asked, "Where are my clothes?" Laurence met her gaze. He didn't feel embarrassed at all. "They were in the wash. They are in the dryer now." Zoey lifted the bed covers and stepped onto the carpet. She made a beeline for the walk-in closet, which was filled with many clothes she hadn't taken with her when she'd left years ago. She picked an outfit and put it on. Laurence was still in the bedroom when she walked out of the walk-in closet. He put on his tie and looked over at her. She glanced at him and said, "You should've woken me up last night." Laurence approached her. He was tall and looked sharp in his suit, with
Love in the dark Chapter 751 Morals
Zoey was fast asleep. She thought she was dreaming when someone lifted her up. Her body clock over the last few days had been regular. She was going to bed early. Now, she couldn't keep her eyes open. Maybe she went back to sleep because she didn't sense any danger.Laurence hooked his arm behind Zoey's knees in a cradle and pulled her arm over his neck to secure her from falling. She mumbled in her sleep. He guessed that she was dreaming.Laurence couldn't hear what she was saying. He leaned in with his ear near her lips, but her mumbling stopped.The chauffeur, dedicated to his job, was on standby outside. Seeing his employer in the distance, he opened the door respectfully.Laurence carried Zoey into the car. The chauffeur closed the car door and glanced again at the woman in his employer's arms from the rear-view mirror. She looked familiar, but he didn't want to make any assumptions. "Where to, sir?" The chauffeur couldn't read his employer's mind, so he was careful not to
Love in the dark Chapter 750 Possessive
The bar wasn't too far from the restaurant. It was less than a ten-minute drive away. Laurence refused to let go of Zoey's wrist. He was bold to show off their closeness even though it was inappropriate. The others could hardly take their eyes off the couple. It was drama in the flesh. If they remembered correctly, Zoey had denied their relationship online two days before. She had even announced her marriage to someone else to set the record straight. What was going on? They had a hunch about the situation, judging by the resistance on Zoey's face. Maybe her ex-husband wouldn't leave her alone. The man seemed relentless in his pursuit. Nevertheless, it was not their business to get involved. At the end of the day, it was between Zoey and Laurence. Everybody quieted down and sobered up. The group caught a cab to the destination. Laurence shamelessly invited himself to join the group, and no one objected, not even politely. They weren't fools. They wouldn't offend the man for
Love in the dark Chapter 749 Your Husband Isn't Home
Zoey felt a tingling sensation along her ear. It felt as if she had been electrocuted. Laurence's tone was half-joking, but there was seriousness behind it. He was ready to tell on her to her husband the moment she nodded. Zoey had lost her patience with him a long time ago. She couldn't help but snap back every time. She looked up. Her face was small. She was about to tell him to get lost when the man took the chance to deepen the kiss. He squeezed her chin, forcing her to part her lips to let him in. Zoey was pinned against the wall. His scorching breath took hers away. She was trapped like prey in a snare. The more she struggled, the tighter his grip became.Laurence didn't stop with a brief kiss. He didn't give Zoey room to breathe, and she could feel her limbs going weak. Her tongue was going numb. The woman opened her mouth, gasping for air. She hung onto his collar to stop herself from going limp. The man was always greedy. He could never get enough of her. Zoey had
