All Chapters of Love in the dark: Chapter 301 - Chapter 310

Zoey's face fell as he brought up the story of their brief fling.She couldn't remember much from that night; the memories were blurry.She didn't understand why Shawn acted like their relationship was fine without any resentment. She still remembered the cold look he'd given her when he'd threatened to have people gang-rape her."Shawn, there's no need to dwell on that one night. My memory of it is hazy, and I assume yours is too," Zoey said. She didn't mean to hurt his ego. She was just being truthful.Even though Shawn looked like a mess, everyone had their own secrets. It wasn't surprising that he was unpredictable, cruel, and twisted.Shawn didn't expect her to misunderstand him. He knew she didn't have any vivid memories of that night; otherwise, she'd know that he hadn't touched her at all."It's fine. Maybe there'll be a next time," he said lazily.Zoey knew he would never say anything nice. She never wanted to have another encounter with him in this lifetime. She would

Laurence thought he was already going easy on Zoey. He wasn't doing anything wrong by not agreeing to a divorce since the contract hadn't expired yet. He even felt that he was already being very forgiving by not making a fuss about the hotel incident. He silently scrolled through their chat history while suppressing the displeasure in his heart. She still hadn't replied to him. He knew he couldn't keep staring at his phone, waiting for a reply. He'd already been more patient than usual that day. After a pause, he texted her. "I'll pick you up tomorrow." He felt worried, but she wouldn't know what he was worried about.Zoey pretended as if she hadn't seen Laurence's text inquiring when she would return. She went downstairs to make a bowl of instant oats, and just as she was about to boil the water, her phone buzzed again. She switched it on and saw another text from him. She already expected him to say something like that, but she really didn't have the mood to deal with him, even

His words amused Zoey. He spoke with such justification as if she had done something that wronged him.Her wrist was in pain because of his grip. He pinned her arms tightly against the wall behind her; as if he wanted to bore them into the wall. Her tone was harsh as she challenged, "Do you have a say in who I date?"Shawn regained his senses when he heard her voice. Yes, he indeed had no say in it.Zoey kicked him, then broke her wrist free when he was distracted. "Even if someone should check up on me, you're not the one to do it, Shawn."He was neither her husband nor her friend. He was nothing to her. At that moment, she wanted to avoid him like the plague.Shawn clenched his jaw tight. His fury burned inside him. He could tell that she hated him more than she could endure. If he did not actively seek her attention, she would not want to see or talk to him at all.Shawn did not answer her directly. With a stiff expression, he smirked and asked, "Is that lawyer a good person?

“Spare me, Mom, please!” Shawn’s voice was weak. It was as if he had used the last of his energy. Shawn stopped in his path and held himself up with his arm on the wall. Letting out an agonized look, his brain hurt immensely each time he tried to recall something. His assistant saw him stop and asked, “Sir, are you okay?” Shawn rubbed his brow. “I’m fine.” He was certain that he had never called his mother “Mom”. He would never use such an affectionate term and had always referred to her as “Mother”. “What could have driven me to kneel before her and beg her to spare me? She must have done something to me,” he thought. Shawn’s expression turned cold. He stiffened his impassive face and ordered the bodyguards standing behind him, “Bring over more men tomorrow.” “Yes, sir.” Shawn sat in the hospital corridor for a long while. Hanging his head, he looked inscrutable. It was already 2 am, but he wasn’t sleepy and wasn’t planning on returning home to sleep.“I sho

Laurence couldn't refute what Zoey said, so he pursed his lips and remained silent.Zoey wasn't trying to shift the blame onto him, but he was indeed the cause of everything.She remembered many things he used to tell her, such as not to overestimate a man's sympathy and that even a remorseful and heartbroken man had his limits.She'd only stated the facts with no intention of attacking him. She was the one who'd gotten beaten and needed to wear a hearing aid. Her words couldn't harm him in the slightest."Zoey." After a long silence, Laurence suddenly called out to her.She didn't respond. Her thoughts always wandered far away in moments like these. Suddenly, she remembered something. Laurence rarely called her by her name. He used to call her "Miss Jenner", which drew a clear line between them."It seems that you've learned something from being around me." Of course, Laurence knew all too well that his words were hurtful sometimes. It was just the way he was—merciless and sharp
