All Chapters of No Divorce For Us, Mrs. Godfrey: Chapter 501 - Chapter 510

Elias had known Mimi for enough years that he was at least well-acquainted with her temperament—she was straightforward and sometimes a little too fierce, but she was ultimately a kind-hearted gal who would not have flipped a table on an innocent bystander. Honestly, asking Elias to believe Britney was a tall order.“Mimi and I go way back, and she’s nothing like what you’ve described. You misunderstood her, I think,” he said.Britney paused, startled at Elias’ palpable incredulity. She swiftly retreated into her well-practiced affectation of wronged innocence, though, arguing, “Maybe she’s nice only to you, but she’s pretty mean to me this morning. Look, I’m not badmouthing her if you think this is what I’m doing. I just think she should be better than this, and I wouldn’t have said any of it if I wasn’t trying to help.”Elias’ eyebrows started to crease. For some reason, hearing another woman picking on Mimi’s foibles irritated him. “I have no idea if helping is what you think you

“Come on, Jeanette! Don’t be so cold! I don’t know anyone else in the company, man. If my only friend in this big damn place ignores me, do you know how lonely I’ll feel?” Xavier said, this time angling for pathos.Jeanette gave him a resigned stare. A few days spent in Xavier’s proximity had allowed some insights into the man’s character tics, including the very real possibility that this could go on forever if she did not comply with his request right now.

“Oh, I… I remembered incorrectly! I did sleep accidentally… B-But it was in the car. See, I actually arrived a few hours ago, but I got so tired and sleepy that what I thought was a little rest turned into sleep. Seriously, dumb mistake.” She laughed awkwardly.Damon’s eyebrow raised, his eyes searching and inquisitive and just a little bit incredulous. “Really?”Jeanette nodded hurriedly. “Exactly. It’s totally true. I accidentally overslept in the car.”For one, it was not a lie—she did sle

Damon guffawed at the sight of her boiling-red cheeks. “All right, all right! No more teasing. Seriously, what were you thinking? I was definitely not going there unless a kiss is a ‘strenuous exercise’ in your book,” he replied slyly.Jeanette sighed in mostly relief and a little hint of embarrassment. Just a kiss, huh? And here she thought he was about to discard any providence and answer his carnal calling…“Fine. A kiss to take away your steam. Deal?” she said, pouting.“Deal. But whether

Jeanette furrowed her eyebrows. “Is asking you to obey traffic law a challenge now?”“You know, you can solve this issue quickly by getting into my car right now, and I’ll drive away as soon as possible. I’ll break no law,” he reparteed, blinking with a smile in his eyes.Jeanette drew a sharp intake of breath. “I don’t want to get into your car. Is that so hard to get?”He pouted. “But why? I don’t recall offending any of your sensibilities these two days!”“Why didn’t you wake me up when w
