Chapter 81

Xyla had no choice but to lie about her intentions for now."Fine, then. Both of you can get up now. From now on, Quentin's promise to marry you will no longer be valid. You may leave," Fred declared.Xyla felt her stomach turn into lead after Fred dismissed her with only a few sentences.However, as offended as she was, she dared not reveal it. She gave Quentin a pained look and did not turn away until she was sure he had seen the tears in her eyes.Quentin didn't expect Fred to pull such a stunt. He felt bitter as he watched Xyla leave, and he couldn't help the guilt that coursed through him."Grandpa," he began to argue."Shut up!" Fred snapped. He did not want to hear whatever Quentin had to say.Quentin wisely kept quiet after that. His fortune was at stake here.Fred addressed Noelle indulgently, "Elle, if this bastard ever hurts you or meets up with Xyla again, I want you to come straight to me. I'll make him give you all his fortune as a punishment!"Noelle was rendere

Quentin's voice was getting softer with every word. He truly was unwell.Seeing this, Noelle spared him from any more talking and said, "All right, that's enough. Just get some rest."She had never wanted any part of the Lowes' shares, and she would have said no even if Fred were to offer them to her.Just then, the door opened. Martin entered the room, holding up his phone as he announced, "Mr. Lowe, Layla has apologized."He handed the phone to Quentin, who took it and clicked on the video. At once, Layla appeared on the screen with streaming down her swollen cheeks. "Mrs. Lowe and I got into a minor dispute, and I put up that post to drag her name through the mud as payback."In truth, Mrs. Lowe had met up with Mr. Xenos for legitimate reasons, and there was nothing salacious going on between them. "I hereby apologize for hurting Mr. and Mrs. Lowe as well as Mr. Xenos with my post."Layla did not mention Xyla in her apology and confessed that the picture of Noelle in the p

Chapter 83

The couple from Dragfort were understandably upset at how things had turned out. They wrapped up their post by tagging John, Noelle, and Quentin in an offer. "If any of you wish to file legal proceedings, know that our law firm will offer you our services for free."Noelle responded to this by replying, "Great. I might just take you up on that offer."At once, the netizens voiced their support by sharing her post and captioning it, "Go, Mrs. Lowe! Stand up for yourself! Don't let those scumbags get away with this!"Quentin woke up feeling much better. He turned and saw Martin in the chair next to his bed, earnestly reading something on his phone. Noelle was nowhere to be seen."Where's Noelle?" Quentin asked.Martin jumped when he heard Quentin's voice and nearly dropped his phone. He quickly backed out of the comments section and answered, "Mrs. Lowe has gone home."Quentin frowned, displeased that Noelle had gone home and left him alone in the hospital. He was sick and in nee

Noelle was replying to messages on her WhatsApp, most of which were from concerned classmates and clients, when the doorbell rang.When she opened the door and saw Quentin standing there, she frowned. "What brings you here, Mr. Lowe?"Quentin felt somewhat bitter that Noelle chose to address him so formally. He wondered when she had started calling him "Mr. Lowe" instead of his first name.Before they were married, Noelle used to call him Quint like the other younger ones did. After they got married, Noelle called him by his first name. In bed, she called him "darling", and that usually came with a lot of blushing.Now, she addressed him as though he were a stranger."I missed you," Quentin said grimly as he brushed past her.Noelle thought he was more likely to miss Xyla than he did her. She couldn't believe he would be so shameless as to show up at her apartment like this.Just as she put out an arm to stop him from going any further, Quentin pointed out icily, "I'm wounded.

"I don't remember," Quentin said as he eased back onto the couch and stared at Noelle's beautiful silhouette as she turned to look at him.She raised a brow and pointed out dryly, "I guess you're not as serious about dating me as I thought. Oh, well. I was going to give you a chance to start things over with me. Too bad."With that, she left him alone on the couch and made her way up to the second level.Quentin called after her, "Noelle!"She stopped on the stairs."What about a new test? I can buy you a house. Maybe someplace with a courtyard in Collinview City or even a castle abroad," he suggested.Noelle's lips pressed into a thin line. She turned ever so slightly to face him so that he could see her pretty side profile. "Mr. Lowe, I don't need a house. Besides, what would a single woman like me do with so many houses?"What she needed were the receipts for all the things Quentin bought Xyla.Quentin drew in a sharp breath and said nothing more.Noelle was tired, and know

Noelle hated herself for wanting to cry at that moment.She could not bring herself to shove Quentin away. It was almost as if her limbs had a mind of their own.She let Quentin hold her like that for a while before she suppressed the emotions swelling up in her and said, "Mr. Lowe, I'm going to make breakfast now. "Once you're done eating, go back to the hospital before the doctors realize you're not in your room and call the police."Quentin chuckled and looked up from her waist, the playful glimmer in his eyes making her heart race.He straightened up slightly and cupped Noelle's face in his hands, then kissed her on the lips.Noelle went still as she blanked out, her senses narrowing to the feel of his lips on hers. When she realized she was melting into the kiss, she quickly pushed Quentin away. "No breakfast for you unless you behave yourself!" she warned.Quentin was weak from his injuries, and one light shove from Noelle was enough to make him stagger. He had to grip

Noelle looked up at the tall building in front of her. She could not see Xyla's figure from here, so she followed Quentin into the building.Quentin went up to the rooftop. When Gloria saw his dashing silhouette approaching, she quickly said, "Mr. Lowe, Ms. Cadwell did not sleep the entire night and came up here early this morning."Some people threw rotten eggs at the apartment and hurled manure at her. Some even phoned her up and called her a whore and a homewrecker. "They said she was shameless for seducing a married man like you. They obviously want her dead! Ms. Cadwell would never do something like that!"When Noelle got up to the rooftop, she was greeted by Gloria's weeping and wailing.Xyla, on the other hand, was crying as she perched on the rooftop's edge. She wore only a nightgown, and she looked small and helpless.Noelle had not seen Xyla when she first pulled up at the building. That could only mean Xyla hadn't been sitting on the rooftop's edge until just now.Sc

Chapter 88

Lorraine downed a mouthful of liquor before setting her glass down on the counter, looking as if she was harboring a grudge.Noelle figured she must have gotten into a fight with her partner.Lorraine never mentioned she had a boyfriend, so naturally, Noelle considered any man in the former's company to be her partner. Not that it mattered. Even a single woman had to have her needs taken care of. Noelle wasn't a prude; she didn't think what Lorraine was doing was a big deal as long as the parties were unmarried and the relationship did not go against any moral principles."Did he do something to piss you off?" Noelle asked out of concern.Lorraine raised a brow. "As if he deserves my wrath."Noelle fell speechless after that. She wondered who the man was and what he was like.Noelle left Summer Night Bar after receiving a few calls from her clients.Meanwhile, Lorraine got a text from the man she was in bed with earlier asking her to return to the bedroom.She pursed her li

Quentin was preparing to go to the office for a regular meeting."Any news from Mrs. Lowe?" he asked.Martin replied, "No, sir."He wasn't sure whether the social media post counted.Without saying anything else, Quentin fastened his cufflinks and turned to walk away.In the situation the day earlier, Xyla could have jumped off the rooftop at any moment, and Noelle even used words to provoke her. Did she really wish for Xyla to die?Quentin found it impossible to forgive Noelle. Perhaps he had been too good to her lately.Xyla was the only sister of that person. How could there be any room for error?…When Quentin's tall figure appeared at Stille Industries, all the employees looked his way. Lately, he had become quite the topic of discussion.Previously, his wife had exposed him, and now she had revealed the assets he had given to her. No one knew what might happen next. They were all quite curious."Hey, do you think Mr. Lowe is as generous to Ms. Cadwell?""Of course. H

Chapter 90

Xyla took out the contents from her file and spread them out one by one on the desk. It was a series of invoices of various origins and titles, all signed by Quentin in the "payer" section.Most of the invoices were for jewelry, with dates ranging from a few years ago to the present. A rough calculation showed they were worth several billion dollars.Amanda calculated the cost of the bags and clothes, totaling about 500 thousand dollars. There were also two real estate: one was a luxury penthouse costing over 30 million dollars, and the other was a ten-story commercial building in the most bustling district of Dragfort, with a total value of five billion dollars.The transaction for the commercial building took place only a week earlier."Quint said this commercial building is for me to collect rent from," Xyla said, her eyes scanning Noelle's face, hoping to catch her moment of emotional breakdown.Her properties might be fewer in number, but they could generate money. With ten
