No Divorce For Us, Mrs. Godfrey Chapter 787
Zeke obviously picked up on the despondent look on Mimi’s face and couldn’t help feeling sore about it. He knew that she couldn’t let go of Elias just yet, but seeing how much she cared still made him feel as if someone had punched him in the chest.Zeke took a deep breath and tried his best to display a gentle smile. “Mimi, we can go somewhere else if you’re uncomfortable.”Mimi was taken aback. She lifted her head, and the hurt in the depths of Zeke’s eyes pierced her heart. Only then did she return to her senses.‘Oh God, what was I doing? Zeke asked me out for dinner, so how could I have lost control and stared at Elias? And Zeke noticed it too. He must be devastated.’Mimi closed her eyes and took a deep breath, trying her best to calm down.‘I need to stay calm. Even if it’s fake, I need to act like I don’t care.’“No need, I’m not uncomfortable at all. He no longer matters. If I bump into him, so be it. There’s no need to deliberately avoid him.” Despite her words, her hea

Mimi looked at Elias and maintained an elegant and appropriate smile.There was a subtle meaning behind her words. It may have seemed like she didn’t want to interrupt Elias and his date, but in reality, she was giving him a warning—it would be immoral of him to interrupt her date with Zeke.Elias was a smart man, so naturally, he understood what she meant. However, he refused to let her off the hook. This woman had become very bold lately. In the past, whenever he would give her a request, she would never deny him. Now, she was determined to avoid him. It’s not like he was the plague.‘Is she really that eager to have time alone with Zeke? Well then, I won’t let her have her way.’Elias had no idea what had gotten into him. The more Mimi tried to avoid him, the more he wanted to wedge himself in between the pair.He smirked and feigned ignorance over Mimi’s warning. “You must be joking, Miss Norton. You and Russo are long-term friends of mine. You’re not third wheels at all. My

Mimi took a deep breath. She maintained a smile on her face, despite the pain in her chest.“You must be joking, Mr. Burnham. Zeke and I are doing very well together. Zeke is particularly gentle with me, and I’ve never met a nicer guy. I believe that if I do marry him, I will live the rest of my life in bliss.”Mimi’s words earned an appreciative smile from Zeke. His heart softened. This was his first time hearing this from her.‘That’s more than I need. All I need is confirmation that I’ll be the one to give her happiness, and I can keep holding on.’Elias, on the other hand, was upset. He clenched his fists angrily underneath the table and frowned.‘Is she really that happy? To be with Zeke Russo? Is she really that proud to be with a big-time director?’Anger rose from the depths of his chest. Elias had no idea what was wrong with him. He felt sore as if he had been made to swallow a lemon.He even wanted to pounce on her and ask how she could have forgotten him so quickly. S

Elias shrugged. “I got lucky. There were no glass remnants lodged in my wound. The people here helped me fix it, so now I’m fine. It’s just a flesh wound.”He sat down. The waiter had already swept up the glass shards and brought him a new glass. He picked it up and took a sip.“That’s good, I was worried that your hand would be heavily injured.” Zeke smiled.Vanessa spoke up. “That’s right, I had such a fright. Elias was bleeding so much that I thought it was a bad cut. Thank goodness he’s alright.” She spoke as if she were Elias’ girlfriend and would inadvertently glance at Mimi from time to time as she spoke. Mimi was focusing on her food, seemingly unbothered by their conversation. Zeke smiled. “Look at me, my dinner was served ages ago, and I haven’t even asked. Burnham, who is…”Before Elias could answer, Vanessa beamed and reached out her hand to Zeke. “Hello, my name is Vanessa. I’m a model and Elias’ girlfriend.”The word “girlfriend” made Mimi shiver. She quickly rev

Heartache should be a kind of fragrance. The air would fill with pain at the very smell of it.It spread from the most fragile parts of her heart, coursing through her blood vessels and surging into her bloodstream. Then it poured through every crevice of her body, finally sinking into her bones, causing her entire body to ache with an ice-cold pain.Jeanette turned off the lights in her office and carried her bag over her shoulder. She rubbed her sore neck and took a deep breath.Now, she was the only one in the office, aside from the security guards. Working hours had long ended, and she, who had been absent from work as CEO, had to make up for the work she missed. Thus, she had no choice but to do overtime, all the way until the wee hours of the night.She knew that many of her subordinates were not happy with her. The blatant objections she had received from subordinates during her internal meeting had proved it.It was sad, but she knew why they weren’t happy with her.She r

The driver sighed. “Happy? Yes, we are a happy family, but my wife and I miss our daughter sometimes. Even though she’s always telling me she’s doing fine, I know that life isn’t easy. When I saw you crying, I thought, what if my daughter were in trouble too? Would she burst into tears like you?”The driver sighed. His face was glowing with fatherly love and concern.“But with a wonderful father like you, your daughter would still feel blessed, even if she were in trouble,” Jeanette said.“I wouldn’t want my daughter to be free from strife because I know it’s not possible. Everyone has their struggles, but I hope that one day, if my daughter bursts into tears on the street like you, a stranger will come along and give her words of comfort, even if it’s just a short piece of advice. My daughter would feel much better. That’s why I wanted to cheer you up. You really don’t have to thank me. I’m just fulfilling a wish I have for my daughter.” The driver sighed. It seemed like he really

Jeanette lightly scoffed. “Stop putting on a show. I only kicked you once in the knee. Are you telling me it’s fractured?”Meanwhile, Damon was panting heavily. His voice obviously sounded as if he was in pain.“It hurts…”His voice was slightly hoarse, coupled with the sound of a pain that he was suppressing. It really seemed like he was in a lot of pain. Jeanette’s heart skipped a beat. She looked at Damon’s sorry state and bent over, rubbing his knees. ‘He really doesn’t seem like he’s p
No Divorce For Us, Mrs. Godfrey Chapter 794
Helplessly, Jeanette became hesitant and could not make a decision.When Damon noticed how troubled Jeanette looked, he pushed on his advantage and frowned. “Ow! How is it so painful? I don’t have a fracture, do I? Hurry up and think of something, Jeanette. You’re the one who did this to me!”Damon seemed like a weak child. His expression even carried a hint of coquettishness aside from being in pain.Meanwhile, Jeanette was heartbroken. She could not help but admit that as much as she desper

…In jail, Xavier stared at Jeanette’s face through a layer of glass. His expression was filled with hatred.Jeanette stared at him and took a deep breath. Then, she picked up the phone.“How’ve you been?”Xavier smirked. “Since my own brother has decided to send me to jail, why has he asked you to come all the way here? To insult me? You really are a match made in heaven.”Jeanette sighed. Actually, Xavier was a very smart man, on par with Damon. Besides, when she had first joined the Godf

In the car, Mimi turned to look at Zeke, who was next to her. For a moment there, she had no idea what to say to him.They had pretty much silently admitted to the media’s claims over their engagement. Over the past few days, Zeke had been making preparations for their engagement party. She had been the one to suggest getting married, but now she was beginning to feel cold feet. She wasn’t sure if she was ready to spend the rest of her life with Zeke.Zeke seemed to be in a good mood. He had

“Damon Godfrey! It was you, wasn’t it? How could you do this to me?” His expression was ruthless. His eyes were filled with a terrifying expression, unlike ever before. He looked like a wild animal that had been suppressing its urges for a very long time.Jeanette had never seen such a terrifying look on Xavier’s face before. She paused in fright as she stared at Xavier from afar.Damon seemed perfectly calm. “You brought this on yourself, Xavier. I know what you’ve done. It’s just that I neve

“You’re overthinking it!” Elias slapped her hand away.Vanessa laughed bitterly. “Oh, I wish I was, Elias. But the facts prove that you’re in love with Mimi Norton. You’re in love with your best friend’s fiancee!”“That has nothing to do with you!” Elias was like a cat who had his tail trampled on. He was tense. He had grown increasingly annoyed now that the heart of the matter had been prodded at.“Nothing to do with me? Elias, do you really think that I was only in love with your position?

Damon reached out and held her wrist. “You don’t believe me? Then come with me.”Jeanette smacked his hand away, looking very stern. “What are you planning? I’m not leaving with you.”Felix suddenly emerged from his room, holding a teddy bear, just as the pair were in the midst of conflict. He widened his large, limpid eyes and looked at Damon at the doorway. His expression filled with immense joy.“Daddy!” The little boy smiled and happily rushed to wrap his arms around Damon’s waist. “Daddy, are you here to take Mommy and me home?”Damon smiled and gazed at his clever son, a god-send, and spoke in a gentle voice. “Of course. Would you like to come home with Daddy?”“Yes!” The little boy’s voice was clear. Then, he carefully turned to Jeanette. “Mommy…”Jeanette frowned. Her heart was a mess. Felix missed his home. He was such a small child and had been forced to endure the conflict between her and Damon. He must have suffered. However, she couldn’t go home with Damon like this.

Jeanette was standing in the kitchen, staring dazedly at the pot of burnt potatoes, looking exasperated.‘I’m such an idiot! I’ve actually managed to burn potatoes… by boiling them. This is completely unheard of! It’s all my fault for being so careless. I left the potatoes to boil and ran off to do something else. I was so busy that I completely forgot about them, until two minutes ago, when I smelled the burnt potatoes. Then I remembered that mine and Felix’s dinner was in that pot. All of the water had actually evaporated!’Jeanette felt a massive headache as she stared at the blackened potatoes stuck to the pot. This was the only food they had at home. Now that the potatoes were ruined, she had no other choice except to take Felix out for food.She scratched her head in exasperation. Felix appeared from behind her, hugging the teddy bear she had just bought for him, and walked into the kitchen. He lifted his chubby, naively little face and stared pitifully up at Jeanette.“Mommy

In a restaurant, the surrounding atmosphere was illuminated by a gentle, dim light, which made it all feel warm and comfortable. Mimi stared at Zeke, who was seated in front of her. She looked hesitant and nervous. She released two soft coughs, unable to say the words she wanted to say.‘Get engaged…’These words felt very distant to her. She did believe that Zeke was the kind of man she could spend the rest of her life with, but to prepare herself for marriage with him in such a short period… She couldn’t bring herself to accept it. After all, she and Zeke had only been dating for a very short time. Unfortunately, Vanessa’s threat had rendered it impossible for her to avoid the subject. Upon careful consideration, it made sense. Since she was going to be with Zeke, why would the time of marriage make any difference?Perhaps it was time for her to truly accept this relationship and start a new life.She took a deep breath and looked at Zeke, who sat in front of her, then swallowe

“Father, even if he is my brother, he should be responsible for his crimes. We live in a civilized society. Besides, he’s worked with an outsider in a plot against our company. You know this. The company wouldn’t have been reduced to this mess if it weren’t for him. Father, your constant shelter and indulgence has caused him to make so many mistakes! If you continue spoiling Xavier, he’ll resort to something even more terrifying in the future,” Damon said with a frown.Christophe smirked in his rage. “Damon, has your search for power driven you mad? How could you be so cruel to your own brother? It’s not like you’re unaware of why I’ve been so indulgent toward him. Xavier has never been of sound mind from a young age. Are you worried that I’d leave the Godfrey Group to him? That he would take everything that belongs to you?”Damon was taken aback. He chuckled bitterly and exasperatedly. “Father, do you really think that that’s what I think? Would you really be bold enough to leave th

The car drove along the road. The driver, a woman, dressed in black wearing a baseball cap, slowly spoke. “What did you say to her?”Vanessa pursed her lips, looking particularly relaxed. “I told her to get engaged with Zeke within a week.”The sound of the car coming to a screeching halt filled the air. The car stopped in the middle of the road, just like that, forcing a row of cars behind them to stop as well. The driver widened her eyes. Her expression was full of rage. “I thought we agreed to expose her affair with Elias? It was a great opportunity for us to ruin her, and you just gave it up?”Vanessa shrugged, looking unperturbed. “Why would I want to ruin her?”“I thought you hated her? Don’t tell me you’re going soft!”The woman frowned. Her expression was filled with anger as if she resented her for not doing any better.She had been planning for so long, coming up with all sorts of schemes to find someone who hated Mimi just as much as she did. However, who would have th
