Love in the dark Chapter 487 Go to Hell
Leo was not going to stand by and watch Jason take the humiliation from Laurence’s men. While his eyes were glazed with age, they still held a cold, calculating gaze that could cut through steel. “Isn’t this pushing it, Mr. Scott?” Laurence replied, “I had no choice.” From above, he looked down indifferently at the man pinned against the desk “Jason, it would be better coming from you.” Laurence’s bodyguards pulled Jason up and slammed his slender frame against the wall. These professionals meant business and would show no mercy. With his back colliding with the firm wall, Jason felt his insides reshuffling. Jason coughed loudly, spitting out blood. He savored the metallic taste of blood as he talked, unconcerned with wiping away the blood that spilled from his lips. The security team held Jason up again. He let out a muffled but harrowing laugh as he sneered, “Sarah must mean a lot to you.” It was hard to read Laurence’s mind. While his eyes were fixed on Jason, Laurence
Love in the dark Chapter 488 Now and Then
Laurence stayed silent for a long moment when he heard Zoey’s words, guessing that she probably knew her uncle was injured. With all the strength she could muster, Zoey continued, "I wish you had died a long time ago." She felt dizzy as she spoke and steadied herself against the wall. "They should have killed you when you got kidnapped. You should have died at seventeen. All of us should have." Her voice was low and unsteady as she spoke. On the other end of the line, Laurence's expression darkened at the ruthless words like a violent storm. Everyone in the meeting room watched their boss' expression gradually change. The pen between his fingers bent as his knuckles turned white. He did not apologize but seemed to allow her to vent her anger.Zoey disliked hospitals because her memories of them weren't pleasant. Since she was a kid, she had had to accept countless medical warnings from doctors saying her mother had barely survived. After that, she lost her first child at the hospi
Love in the dark Chapter 489 Because I Don't Love You Anymore
The three-month notice for divorce was a new regulation. Getting a divorce was really quite troublesome. Even so, Zoey didn't mind the trouble because she couldn't stand being with Laurence for a second longer. Jason nodded and said, "I'll send someone with you tomorrow." Zoey shook her head and waved away the offer, "It's not worth the trouble." Jason did not insist but asked, "Can you handle him?" Zoey didn't know how to answer him because it would be useless even if she brought someone with her. Nobody could handle Laurence because he was way too tough. The hard way never worked on him, and everything depended on his mood. He did as he pleased according to his whim and could get angry at any moment. His bad temper was hard to predict. But who gave him the right to go back on his word now when he had forced her to abide by the terms of the contract last time? It was unreasonable. He should be ashamed for not keeping his promise.If Laurence had dragged their marriage on and
Love in the dark Chapter 490 Fine
Zoey was worried he wouldn't know the flow of events, so she explained it clearly. She had even planned out what to do if Laurence disagreed. She rambled on with her head lowered, not looking at him. Laurence's body was stiff as if his blood was turning to ice. He interrupted her, "Your uncle is no saint."Zoey fell silent. Laurence couldn't explain the animosity he felt towards Jason. He didn't know if it was because of what he had done to Sarah or the envy Laurence harbored in his heart. He would make use of the chance to satisfy his own selfish needs. "He only brought his gang of men to pose threats this time, but what if he does something next time? What if he commits rape, records it, and spreads it around?" Laurence questioned calmly.Zoey looked up slowly, her gaze pure and innocent. "So, should I be thanking you for not killing my uncle?" "That's not what I meant." Laurence gazed at her pale face and took a step closer to her. She retreated as he stopped before her. "But
Love in the dark Chapter 491 Two Names, One Paper
Zoey had done more research into the divorce than Laurence had, so she said, "You have to sign it in person." She felt relieved hearing Laurence give in because she had been so afraid that he wasn't done venting his anger on her and wanted to keep holding on to her to torment her longer. It seemed like he had chosen to let her go and let himself go. They should never have tormented each other this way from the beginning. What good would it do for them to be the end of each other?Zoey's attitude towards him improved because of what he said. She finally didn't have to be so frigid and defensive towards him like an enemy, and she tried discussing matters with him nicely. "I'm sure you can find some time tomorrow. How about I discuss all the details with Mr. Croft, and you show up at the Civil Affairs Bureau to sign the papers?" She tried her best to please him since it was the last time she’d have to. She pursed her lips and continued, "I'm sure you can trust Mr. Croft. He's a very
Love in the dark Chapter 492 How Nice Not To Be In Love With Him Anymore
The divorce papers were separated into a set for each of them. Zoey went to the marital affairs department with hers and handed them to the clerk. The clerk glanced at Mr. Croft and said, "Is he your husband?" Zoey was nonplussed and answered truthfully, "No. He's my husband's lawyer." The clerk frowned and couldn't understand why the other party hadn't shown up for something as important as a divorce. Her workload was heavy, and she couldn't help being short-tempered. She got even more frustrated when something like this happened. "Please call your husband and ask him to be present. You can't get married alone. The same goes for a divorce," she said. Zoey already expected this because she had done some research online. She had thought that since Mr. Croft hadn't pointed it out, perhaps it wasn't mandatory for Laurence to be present. "I'll contact him right away," said Zoey. "Next."Zoey walked into the corridor to call Laurence. Before dialing his number, she looked at Mr
Love in the dark Chapter 493 Would She?
"Uncle Jason, shouldn't you be at the hospital? Why are you here?" Zoey asked as she jogged towards them, frowning as she examined her uncle worriedly. Looking at him up close, his complexion didn't look too well because he hadn't recovered from his injury. He had undergone surgery, after all, which was very taxing on his health."I was able to get out of bed today, and I was worried he would bully you, so I came over to check on you," he said. Zoey shook her head and said, "He didn't bully me today. We've just finished the procedure." Since it was over, Zoey didn't want to bring it up anymore. She held Jason's hand, anxiously pulling him into the car. "Let's go back to the hospital. How could you be so careless about your health?"Jason got pushed inside the car compliantly, but when the door closed, he looked out into the distance. Laurence was standing under an elm tree, watching them in silence. Right then, he was reticent and stood motionlessly. It was a rare occasion where he
Love in the dark Chapter 494 Throw Away Everything Left Behind
Jason's suspicions slowly faded as he watched Zoey’s expression. She put aside the pasta and ate some vegetables. She was feeling better and less nauseous than before. Without noticing, she finished her lunch with no leftovers. After finishing his own food, Jason asked, "When are you planning to move? Do you need my help?" Zoey seriously contemplated the offer and shook her head, saying, "I don't have much stuff. I can just take a taxi." Henry spoke up suddenly, "I drove today. I'll go with you later."Jason gave Henry a hard stare, seemingly sensing something in the air. Before Zoey could answer, he interjected, "That sounds okay too. Get going earlier in the afternoon."Zoey nodded and agrreed, "Oh, okay." Jason still needed a checkup in the afternoon and get his wound rebandaged. Zoey watched her uncle being wheeled into the checkup room before leaving with Henry. Henry's car was parked outside the hospital. Zoey opened the door to the backset, changed her mind and circled
