Love in the dark Chapter 431 Killer
Zoey felt less worried after seeing that Jason wasn’t dispirited in the slightest. As long as one was alive, one still had hope.She said goodnight to him before retiring to her room. Jason stared at her quietly. He did not ask the question on his mind and wished her sweet dreams instead.After taking a bath, Zoey checked her phone. She had several unread messages.Laurence seemed to be free, just as he had told her earlier. Instead of sleeping, he chose to disturb her.“Are you asleep yet?”“The hotel bed isn’t comfortable.”“What are you doing?”“Why are you ignoring me?”Zoey was annoyed and didn’t want to reply, but she was afraid that would lead him to message her even more.She typed, “I’m going to bed.”His reply came quickly.“I don’t want to stay in the hotel tomorrow night.”“Then you can spend the night on the side of the road,” she replied, suddenly feeling relaxed after a long while.Laurence wasn’t angry when he read her reply. Instead, he laughed and his lousy mood clear
Love in the dark Chapter 432 Anyone Other Than Me
Zoey was stunned but quickly collected herself and acted naturally as she returned the bottle. “It’s vitamin C.”Laurence removed his tie before grabbing the bottle from the table and studying its label. Then, he put it back down. Zoey was relieved.Laurence was expressionless and distant as usual. He glanced at her briefly before suddenly approaching her. She could smell a sweet scent on him. It wasn’t his usual scent, but a citrusy, floral scent. A woman’s perfume.Zoey didn’t like it but didn’t ask him about it. If she did, he would surely embarrass her.Laurence took off his shirt and asked casually, “Are you free tonight?”Zoey was, but she didn’t want to tell him that.After a while, Laurence told her, “I have to attend a banquet tonight. I need to bring a partner.”Zoey pursed her lips and kept quiet. In the past, he never brought her to functions like these. He never introduced her as his wife to anyone. He had never cared about bringing a partner. Zoey knew that he didn’t need
Love in the dark Chapter 433 I Have Never Loved You
Zoey only discovered that the event was a charity banquet when she entered the banquet hall. It was decorated like an art museum, and the chandelier was dazzling.Laurence held Zoey by the waist as they entered the hall. Zoey was not used to him doing public displays of affection like this.The charity banquent was organized by Jessica Myers, so there were many people from the entertainment industry present. The Myers were an influential family, and Jessica was a prominent figure in the industry. Hence, there was press coverage of the event as well.Zoey was not used to the attention. They had entered through the VIP lane so they weren’t bothered by the press then, but when they entered the hall, all eyes were on them. Laurence acted like the scandal had not happened. Zoey found that she was slowly getting used to getting stared at. Although the stares were malicious, it was just as Laurence had said—no one dared to say anything to their faces.Adrian was there too. When he greeted Zoe
Love in the dark Chapter 434 Too Late
Shawn wouldn’t harm Jasmine so deeply for no reason. Zoey looked at him, and his eyes were red and unreadable.His expression turned ugly at what she had said. After a long while, he choked, “I know.”He knew it had been one-sided all along. Shawn did not want to apologize to Zoey. It wouldn’t help anything. He had hurt her severely in the past, and that was the truth. He wanted to tell her how much he regretted it and how he hadn’t meant to hurt her like that. It was just because he had forgotten everything.However, he couldn’t bring himself to say any of it to her. It felt fake and pretentious. She would find it laughable for sure.Shawn’s eyes teared up, but he held them back as he looked at Zoey. He remembered her shedding tears and trembling in fear, how she gritted her teeth and said that she would hate him for the rest of her life. He felt an unbearable ache in his heart.“Were you waiting for me here?” Zoey asked, calmer than she was before.Shawn nodded, his face pale. Zoey n
Love in the dark Chapter 435 Sudden Thoughts
The sound of gossip died down.Laurence’s expression did not change. He said casually, “There’s some cake there. It looks good.”Zoey had a sweet tooth. She liked desserts and sweet, creamy cakes. She nodded, “Oh, okay.”After setting a slice of cake onto a plate, she sat down on the nearest chair and dug in. Suddenly, she felt a weight on her shoulders. Laurence had put his jacket over her shoulders as a gust of wind blew by. The night air was chilly as it would soon be autumn. Under the moonlight, Zoey’s skin looked like porcelain. Her long hair draped over her shoulders elegantly.She sat beside him and said softly, “It’s okay. I’m not cold.”Laurence froze for a moment before replying stiffly, “Just wear it. Even if you’re not cold.”“Perhaps he’s being possessive again,” Zoey thought. However, he had picked the dress she was wearing himself. It wasn’t that revealing. She gave in and wore the jacket anyway. Going against him would only make things difficult for her.Zoey felt drows
Love in the dark Chapter 436 A Big Deal
Zoey kept her word and sent Laurence’s mother a message the next morning. In the text, she said that she was still young and had just started her career. So, she was not ready to have a child yet. She put all the blame on herself and not on Laurence. This was so that Laurence could not find fault with her regarding the issue.It wasn’t that Mrs. Scott really wanted a grandchild she could care for. She simply thought Laurence and Zoey’s relationship would improve if they had a child. She knew that her son was too cold and distant. If he had a child, maybe he would change for the better. Perhaps he would become a good husband and father.After seeing Zoey’s text message, she sighed and went on to nag her son again. “Look at you. I’m sure you’re not considerate and caring enough to Zoey. That must be why she doesn’t want to have a child.”Laurence was already in a bad mood. When he saw his mother’s text, his expression soured even more.“She had such a difficult past. She needs someone wh
Love in the dark Chapter 437 Dread
Was Sarah doing fine? Heck, she was living the best life!She was living it up, and the world revolved around her. Sarah never had to worry about living paycheck to paycheck. Instead of giving Jason a straight answer, Zoey was careful to pick up on her uncle’s facial cues. “Uncle Jason, what’s with the sudden interest in her?” Jason raised his eyebrow and answered curiously, “I was just asking.” He added, “It seems she’s been doing well for herself over the years.” It didn’t take rocket science to figure out that Sarah would be in good hands with her father. Jasmine’s heart of stone hid behind her kind and compassionate façade. The woman grinned and bore through the years before finally flipping the script to her advantage. Of course, Jasmine would give her only daughter the world. Zoey gave it some thought before answering, “She’s being held in custody. She should be out in a couple of days.” Sensing Zoey’s reluctance to talk about Sarah, Jason ended the conversation there
Love in the dark Chapter 438 Anxiety Over Uncertainties
Zoey was dismissive toward Laurence on the phone. Picking up on her half-hearted attitude, Laurence grew furious. His mood swings had worsened since the day he had been foolish enough to bring kids up in the conversation. Zoey spoke in hushed tones as if she did not want to be caught dead talking to him. “I’ll be back a little later today.” Laurence scoffed in rage. “Oh, so you do know you have a home. I thought you’d turned your back on me now that your uncle is out of jail.” Zoey had to get over his snide remark. Laurence hung up before Zoey could speak. It was as though he wanted nothing to do with her. Zoey saw red. She kept reminding herself that she had four months to go. Only four months until the insufferable marriage was over. Laurence was out of excuses to threaten her this time. Once the contract was up, Zoey would not violate the terms when she cut ties with him. …The day of Sarah’s release from the detention center came.Robert sent a car to pick her up.
