Love in the dark Chapter 559 First-hand
Laurence's sudden interrogation caught Sarah off guard, leaving her at a loss for words.In all honesty, the fear of being exposed had long settled in when she learned that Shawn had managed to recall the past. She was afraid that he would reveal the truth to Laurence.Initially, it deeply troubled her, but the unease gradually subsided as time passed. In fact, she had nearly forgotten about it altogether. Given the tension between him and Laurence as arch-enemies, she thought he would never leak a word.For Laurence to suddenly bring this matter up now of all times, she knew the only reason was that Shawn had told him.By instinct, she tried to defend herself. However, looking up to meet the man's dark eyes seemed to lodge her entire argument in her throat like an extinguished flame.Right now, she could barely string together the words to explain herself.Time and time again, she had done too many wrongs and sought forgiveness through "it wasn't on purpose."She had lost cou

In recent days, Jasmine found herself deeply troubled by the company's operations. The impact of payment delays on several of their projects came as a terrible surprise. After all the trouble of using connections to secure a convenient deal with the resettlement housing program, the plans suddenly fell through for no apparent reason.Only with this project would the company have something to work on for the second half of the year.She was just feeling relieved that the funds could be turned around when she received a call nixing the agreement. Since they had yet to sign the contract, there was no legal issue with pulling out. Jasmine gripped her phone tightly. Presently, she dared not lose her temper and could only grovel softly, "Did something go wrong? Or could there be something about us you're dissatisfied with? How about this, Mrs. Sullivan, I'll treat you to a meal once I return to Northwell, and we can discuss it in person."Mrs. Sullivan had quite an influential figure

Laurence rarely lost control and unleashed his emotions like this.Mrs. Scott felt a deep sadness witnessing him in such a state, yet she understood that anything she said now would be futile.It was as they said—one could never attend to both ends. You couldn't have your cake and eat it too.In the past, he had gone to extremes. Otherwise, things wouldn't have turned out this way.Perhaps it was due to his ailment that Laurence let slip this vulnerable side in front of his family. Very soon, he pulled himself back from the brink of losing control. He took a deep breath in an attempt to rearrange his emotions and said, "I'm going upstairs."He felt overcome with dizziness. He had definitely seen way better days.Back in his room, he took a shower and collapsed onto his bed after drying his hair with a towel. He shut his fatigued eyes when his phone on the bedside table rang, but he didn't bother looking at it, uninterested in who was calling.The next day, he woke up with a heav

Amanda thought Laurence would respond to her remarks as coldly as he had dismissed her in the past.To her surprise, that was not what happened.He knew that it would be pointless.Although she deliberately touched a nerve, Laurence didn't seem angered at all. He did not elicit a single display of the tantrum that Amanda had anticipated.She must admit that she really admired him for his composure at that moment.However, Zoey's new boyfriend and their child effortlessly stirred up a lingering discontent within him. Amanda held a certain level of fear for Laurence. If she were to enrage him for real, there was no knowing when he would be silently plotting his revenge. She decided to stop there and politely advised, "If you don't want to be an uncle, you can be the stepfather."Laurence tugged at the corners of his mouth and said, "Thank you so much."Amanda felt a chilling sensation down her spine as she met his cold gaze. She regretted speaking up.Engagement banquets were a

Laurence did not mind lending Jared a hand. It did not matter, even if Jared's parents had accepted the fact. Laurence would make Jared give up on his own. Reality was no utopia, and danger lurked everywhere in society, eroding all unrealistic fantasies. …Southgrove received two short rainstorms.The end of the torrential rainy season welcomed spring. Zoey moved her plants from the living room to the yard for a bask of sunshine. She had nothing much to do lately, and there was no emergency to sort out at work either. Beautiful weather always lifted spirits. On the spur of the moment, Zoey went upstairs to sort the room out. She had not been inside her previous bedroom, and dust had gathered on the desk. Her boxes of stuff were still underneath the bed where she had left them. The boxes contained diaries, used books, and test papers from her high school. Zoey was not in the position to bend over, especially with her growing belly. She was going to get someone to hel

Laurence replied quizzically to Zoey, "Is it really that boring?" "Yes, it's incredibly lame," responded Zoey. Laurence countered, "I don't think so. I'm serious about it." "Haven't I made it clear enough to you? I'm carrying someone else's baby. Aren't you the most practical person in the world? Don't be unrealistic," Zoey said her piece, but Laurence had always proved himself more stubborn than her. The rumors about Laurence's stubbornness and ruthlessness were true. Fighting back her temper, Zoey uttered, "If you're feeling guilty about the hurt you have caused for getting the wrong idea about me, I can let you know now that I forgive you. I don't care about it, and I've moved past it. I don't hate you either. That should be enough for you. It simply did not sit well with you that you wronged a person because of your past arrogance. Don't feel sorry. It's not important to me anymore. It's all in the past. I got the beating and the insults. I'm the victim, and it doesn't m

The old lady was advanced in age, so her information was not as up-to-date as the younger people. She thought that the man Zoey had brought back before was her husband since the couple looked good together. Not a lot of people believed Zoey when she said she was divorced. It was inconceivable to many. Zoey's husband was young, drove an expensive car, and wore expensive clothes. It was clear that he was made of money. The man was a wealthy person with poise too. He had the grace of a gentleman, unlike nouveau riche. Zoey grabbed her breakfast, not insisting on explaining that he was not her husband. She asked, "When did he come over?" The older lady gave it some thought. "Last night. Only he can discipline those unruly brats." Zoey absent-mindedly bit on the straw, nearly biting her tongue. Probably sensing something, Zoey looked back and saw the man standing not too far away from her. His figure stood tall. Laurence approached Zoey and furrowed his brows at the not

The sunshine appeared more vibrant after the rain. The sun's rays penetrated through the glass window, giving light to the living room. Zoey's back would ache if she was on her feet for too long. With her arm propping against her back, Zoey took her time to sit on the sofa with a frown. "Laurence, you're trespassing on my property." Laurence shamelessly denied, "I came into the house with you." Zoey pursed her lips. "I didn't say you could." Laurence cheekily retorted, "Oh, I thought you were okay with it." Random things for children could be found around the living room. There were some early years toys, unopened packages of beautiful clothes, and a rocking horse on the balcony. Zoey seemed to have put a lot of thought into raising the child before the kid was even born. She was not the type to shop around, and the range of products could hardly tempt Zoey to pull out her credit card. Nevertheless, Zoey couldn't resist getting the necessities for her unborn child no

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
