All Chapters of Love in the dark: Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

Zoey didn’t like the cold, so once she fell asleep, she instinctively started to burrow herself into the closest source of heat she could find, which happened to be Laurence’s embrace. He was very warm, so Zoey felt really comfortable when she slept in his embrace. It was as though she had her very own heater.However, she moved around a lot when she slept.She didn’t even notice it when her blanket slipped off her. Laurence, on the other hand, was a light sleeper. He woke up several times through the night and would patiently cover her with the blanket whenever it slipped off her.Zoey’s limbs were tightly wrapped around him.Laurence noticed that she was pretty clingy when she was asleep.He didn’t hate it, but he wasn’t exactly used to it either.…The next day was a rare occasion for Zoey woke up early. She had breakfast in the dining room with Laurence before going to the office.She was a picky eater and didn’t eat much, whereas Laurence only had a cup of coffee for breakfast.Z

Zoey didn't think Laurence was a player."Maybe he already has feelings for someone."Anne cried and said, "How could someone as good as Mr. Scott have feelings for someone and still be single?"Zoey hesitated for a while."Maybe."What was Laurence's definition of love? Based on Zoey's understanding of him after knowing him for so long, he didn't care if someone he didn't care about loved him or hated him. He couldn't give two damns. It wouldn't affect him at all.However, if it was someone he had feelings for, he demanded their unconditional love. Love that was unbridled and absolute, from their body to their soul. His strong possessiveness could throw someone off balance. Perhaps it was because of this that Sarah had chosen to leave the country back then. Zoey and Anne were chatting enthusiastically when Matthew suddenly appeared behind them. He conveyed Laurence's message seriously."Ms. Jenner, Mr. Scott said that if you're very free here, you can ask for leave."Zoey stayed calm

Zoey wrapped herself in her wool coat, but part of her shoulders was still exposed. She left quietly through the side door and nobody noticed. A red carpet was laid out along the corridor of the hotel. There were still reporters waiting outside, trying to capture some hot exclusive news. Although the president of Scott Group wasn't an artist in the entertainment industry, he was more famous than some actual celebrities. Netizens were also very interested in his love life.Zoey caught her breath in the corridor. She had always hated the reporters' cameras and would avoid places with reporters. She booked a ride. The city streets were always jammed on weekends. She sat down in the lobby and patiently waited for her ride. Little did she expect to meet someone she didn't want to see at all. Shawn was like a venomous snake who would rip her heart out with his fangs and kill her like she was his prey. He was dressed in a black suit and a long overcoat, making him look fierce and intimidatin

Zoey spoke softly and mildly for fear that she would displease him. Laurence cocked an eyebrow as he contemplated it. “I think not,” he said. Zoey didn’t let even an ounce of disappointment or displeasure show on her face. Although her heart fell, she kept her chin up. “Oh,” she said. After recovering from the disappointment, she added, “No problem.” The special dance was the staff's idea anyway, so nobody dared to say anything, even if the president refused. He was the higher-up who called the shots.Zoey gripped the strip of paper with her number on it while thinking she wasn't very interested in going to Wormot anyway. Her life was a mess, and she wasn't in the mood to travel. She looked at Laurence and asked, “Mr. Scott, how do I redeem this trip in cash?”She cared more about the money. The way Laurence looked at her was indifferent, and it was hard to tell if he was disappointed in her. Perhaps he’d never met any woman who loved money as much as she did. “You can ask the admini

The company went on an extended break after the annual banquet with three extra days off. Work only started on the tenth day of the new year.Zoey packed a simple suitcase. She’d already bought plane tickets back to Southgrove earlier on. It was more difficult to buy plane tickets during the new year was more difficult, and it was more expensive as well.Before she left, Zoey went to the hospital. She’d visit her mother in the ward every weekend, hold her hand and talk to her, although she still showed no response.Sometimes, she’d stare at the heart rate monitor and wonder if she should really be keeping her mother here. She kept feeling that her mother would wake up someday. That day could be years away, but she could wait. She really couldn't bring herself to give up, selfishly holding on to a ray of hope.Zoey went to consult the doctor, and he said in the gentlest way possible, “There is hope, but it's not very likely.”Whether her mother would wake up from her coma was up to god
