All Chapters of Love in the dark: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

In fact, he thought he was quite smitten with Zoey. She really was his type. Tristan didn't have much of an impression of Zoey at first. He only remembered her as a quiet and reserved girl. However, there were some complicated rumors about her. Shawn had mentioned that she sold herself and frowned as he called her filthy. Even people like him who indulged in debauchery were picky.The actress held Tristan's arm tightly and said coquettishly, "Mr. Gray, it's so cold outside. Let's get in the car."Tristan's patience was at its limit. He looked at her hand with displeasure and said, "Let go."She was reluctant, but she dared not disobey him. Tristan's mood was always unpredictable. One moment, he could smile at her cheerfully, but the next moment, he could treat her like a stranger. Tristan asked her to take a cab home by herself. Ignoring her dismay, he walked off in Zoey's direction. Zoey felt a shadow come over her."Ms. Jenner."She looked up and said plainly, "Mr. Gray."Tristan sel

That being said, Laurence didn’t enjoy the feeling that he didn’t have Zoey fully under his control.He had an extraordinary urge to control her compared to others, and he didn’t think there was anything wrong with that.All men had such tendencies after all, and he was no exception.“Did you go alone?” Laurence asked casually as he looked at her.Zoey felt slightly embarrassed to merely nod her head yes as it would seem as though no one was interested in her and that she didn’t have any close relationships with anyone aside from him.She didn’t want herself to appear so pitiful, as she still wanted to protect whatever was left of her dignity.She turned to face him and lied with a straight face. “I called one of my friends.”Laurence cocked a brow but didn’t respond.To make her lie more believable, Zoey continued, “These tickets are quite hard to get, so I couldn’t just use one and let the other go to waste. I asked her to join me since she also happened to like the musical.

Sometimes, Zoey really hated herself for having such a weak immune system. Her walk in the rain had led to her catching a fever. She had a fitful sleep ridden with nightmares. Her temperature also ran so high that she was sweating in her sleep.Drenched in sweat, she was so warm that she tried to kick the warm comforter off herself. However, her attempts proved futile as someone held her down. Struggle as she might, she remained tightly tucked in the comforter.It got to the point where she got really uncomfortable. “It’s too warm,” she murmured in her sleep.Someone beside her said something, but she failed to catch it.She quickly succumbed to her dreams again.When Zoey woke up the next morning, she felt clammy all over as she had sweat quite a fair bit over the night. It wasn’t the most pleasant feeling but, on the bright side, she felt a lot less dizzy, and her head didn’t hurt as much as it did anymore.Laurence, who was up earlier than her, was already dressed for work. He was

The mark was a love bite Laurence left on her in the car that morning. He insisted that she sit on his lap, then he pushed her hair out of the way and bit her on the nape as though marking his territory.After Anne pointed out the mark to her, Zoey put her hair down to hide it. She tried to cover things up and remarked, “No wonder I felt an itch there. I’ll apply some ointment on it once I get home.”Anne went on to ask Zoey about her skincare routine. She had always been envious of Zoey’s fair and dewy skin. With a sigh of relief, she told Anne, “I only apply a purifying toner to my face.”That got Anne even more envious as she exclaimed, “I guess some people are just born with good skin.”After some small talk with her, Zoey received the news that Laurence would fly off to Southgrove for a meeting that afternoon.Her enjoyment of the prospect of being free of him for a couple of days to catch her breath was cut short when Laurence informed her that she was to join him on the busines

Even though Zoey would be more than happy to see Robert Jenner drop dead from anger, now was not the time. He couldn’t die just yet.He must pay for every single tragedy that befell the Fulton family.Robert had everything to do with the many years of suffering her mother went through on her sickbed and all the hardship her uncle had to live with in prison.“No office romance, remember?” Zoey reminded.“I’m the president of the company, and you’re the exception. What I say goes,” Laurence said as he leaned in to her.Zoey was very much moved by his words. That sounded like something one would say to a loved one.But she was no longer the naive young girl she was all those years back. She shoved him lightly and teased, “I’d be worried about all your past lovers coming back to find fault with me.”Laurence smiled. “Then fight back, Miss Jenner. I’ll back you up.”Zoey kept silent.A glance at the clock told Laurence that it was about time to set out for the airport.However, Zoey dared n
