All Chapters of Love in the dark: Chapter 211 - Chapter 220

Laurence was gentle and soft when he kissed her, but when the real action began, he became an insatiable beast, devouring her alive. Zoey hadn’t trimmed her nails lately and left a few marks on his back. He went too deep, and she had to hold back her moans by biting his shoulders.Laurence rubbed her back as if he were comforting her, but he never showed mercy, almost forcing her to tears in the end. Her were red, glistening with years. Zoey slowly drifted to sleep in his arms. Even in her dreams, she wanted to escape him and slept with her back facing him. Laurence was slightly dissatisfied and pulled her back into his arms, wrapping his arms around her waist, fully embracing her. Only then did he close his eyes happily. Later in the night, Zoey started to have a nightmare. She was sweating profusely and mumbling incoherently. She unconsciously clung to him like he was a lifesaver, crying and shouting, tears streaming down her pale face pitifully. Laurence was worried and gently woke

His mother had never found out. Zoey was skeptical about it since she’d clearly account for every single snack hidden at home, even a bag of potato chips. "I think your mom will find out."Laurence chuckled. "She won’t."Zoey nodded and headed to the kitchen to boil some water. She had yet to fully adapt to being alone with Laurence. She couldn’t act indifferent, but she wasn’t as happy as she used to be. She'd no longer be excited over some small gestures. It was all fake. She knew that women were always more invested in relationships than men. Men had an advantage in emotions as they can easily detach themselves from a relationship and act as if nothing had happened. Only a fool like her would take things seriously.Zoey cooked the noodles and brought a bowl to the dining table. Laurence took in the tempting aroma and understood why she always craved junk food. Zoey suddenly remembered something as she ate. "How is George?"Laurence paused for a moment and said icily, "He’s dead."

She didn’t want others to gossip about her and become the center of attention. Zoey ignored him and went to the bathroom to wash her face. The warm water quickly refreshed her. She took out the dress she bought two days ago and changed into it in the dressing room. Laurence handed her a scarf. “Take this.”Zoey refused, “It looks better without it.”Laurence looked at her calmly. “Aren’t you cold?”Zoey blinked and said, “I can endure it for the sake of beauty.”Laurence did not want to ruin her mood. So, he reluctantly allowed her to dress this way. After all, he picked the dress, and it would seem petty if he said more. Zoey had naturally good skin. Therefore, she did not need much makeup. She just put on some lipstick to add some color to her face, and she was ready. Her hair was harder to manage. She rummaged through the drawers but couldn’t find her hair tie. Laurence glanced at her and asked, “What are you looking for?”Zoey frowned, “My hair tie is missing.”Lauren

Zoey initially wanted to muddle her way through. However, Laurence was extremely sharp. He wasn’t that easily fooled. She braced herself and walked forward, her ankle throbbing with pain. Laurence suddenly grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms, lifting her up. Once Zoey realized what was happening, she wanted to hide in a cave. So many eyes were on them. It seemed like an overreaction for him to carry her just because she twisted her ankle. Zoey really wanted to dig a hole and bury herself in it.People started to murmur, but Zoey managed to hear their whispers. Acting so high-profile was very unlikely of Laurence. Zoey buried her head in his chest to hide from the people around. She seriously wondered if Laurence had offended someone and was using her as a shield. To be honest, Laurence had quite a number of enemies. He had offended countless people, and there were more than enough people who wanted him dead. Zoey’s thoughts started to run wild, and she wondered if she would

Laurence’s words were harsh as he coldly replied to her. However, he grabbed her wrist as soon as Zoey stood up. He was usually strong, and his fingers had a firm grip whilst her wrist was thin and frail. Zoey cried out in pain softly. Laurence thought she was faking it and ignored her. Zoey had a stubborn temper, and she did not want to get into an argument with him, so she held her tongue. In the eyes of others, they were at an impasse right now.“Miss Jenner, if I can’t carry you, at least I could give you a hand, right?” Laurence deliberately emphasized her name as if he were teasing her. Zoey could not push him away as there were others in the lounge. Sissy and Ryan might have suspicions if they got into a heated argument before them.She politely answered, “Thank you.”Sissy was quite worried about her but she did not dare to address her too intimately in front of Laurence, so she quietly asked, “Zoey, do you want to sit for a moment?”Laurence answered in her stead, “No.”
