All Chapters of Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Everyone assumed he divorced Dexie because he wanted to get back with Narda. "You all are excellent at making up stories. You should write a book," Luke Huxley said, putting on a serious face and feeling hot under his collar. "If everyone thinks like that, does Dexie think the same way too?" he suddenly wondered, concerned. "We're not making it up. You're the one who acts like it." Simon glared at him and added, "If that's not the case, why would you make Dexie apologize to Narda when you clearly knew it was Narda's fault? What were you thinking?"Luke Huxley said nothing. But Simon didn't let it go and continued, "If you were Dexie, how would you feel? You defended another woman and made her apologize indiscriminately. She must hate your guts." Luke Huxley remained silent, but he raised his jaw."Why did I ask him to apologize to her? I didn't want him to ignore me like that! His arrogant attitude made me frustrated and insecure," he thought. Feeling that he had said enough, Simon

If Narda found out about Luke Huxley's actions, wouldn't she be worried about losing the three years she spent maintaining her chastity?Dexie shot him a disdainful look before saying emotionlessly, "Thank you, Mr. Dawson. Now you can have your hand back."Luke Huxley had become accustomed to Dexie's indifference. When listening to Dexie's words, he gently retracted his hand."Okay, I'll listen to you."Her mischievous smile made Dexie internally roll her eyes. Wouldn't her brash behavior be misinterpreted as if he were a loving husband and they were a loving couple in the eyes of an outsider?As Dexie expected, Roxane, who was sitting right in front of them, was filled with jealousy. Her eyes turned red when she noticed how Luke Huxley treated her and Dexie differently."Why wouldn't she take another look at me? I'm trying to please him, but he hasn't even told me a single word. Besides that, he even tried to make me seem embarrassed several times. But he cares a lot about Dexie. Why

Luke Huxley raised his eyebrows at Rodel, not believing a single word he said."What if Dexie upsets someone else? Are you worried that you cannot protect your daughter, or are you worried that I cannot protect my wife?" Rodel replied. Rodel was dumbfounded.At this moment, Luke Huxley was echoing every word Rodel said, preventing further resistance.Luke Huxley was never one to get hung up on a small matter like this.Did he change after spending time with Dexie? Luke Huxley was fed up with Rodel.Although he had only visited the Domino family home twice, Luke Huxley had been a personal witness to how Rodel treated Dexie.In the past, he cared little about these things. But after realizing how Dexie was being framed by her biological father and how her father shamelessly treated her to ruin her reputation for the sake of his illegitimate daughter, Luke Huxley's blood seethed with anger. His words had given Rodel a hard slap in the face. While Rodel was

Luke Huxley's heart ached for Dexie as she lamented her isolation and vulnerability, a result of her own father's betrayal. The more indifferent Dexie appeared, the deeper Luke Huxley felt the pain in his heart."As a grandmother, I will decide on the room arrangements. Give this room to Roxane, and I will have the servants prepare another one for you," Madam Domino continued.Dexie was not surprised by the behavior of the Domino family; therefore, it was not unusual for her to hear such statements."Just one room?" Everyone knew that Dexie's room was the best in the entire villa, with superior lighting and a scenic view outside the window."After you forcefully took over my room, do you still want to act as a mediator in front of me?" Luke Huxley asked rudely.Before Dexie could respond, someone intervened."This house belongs to Dexie. How can someone from the Domino family intervene in decisions?" Luke Huxley retor

Luke Huxley was taken aback by Dexie's strong reaction, though he understood her feelings. Her response still left him feeling unsettled."Luke Huxley, are you kidding me?"Dexie exclaimed, her expression haughty as she clenched her fists.Luke Huxley was surprised by the coldness he felt emanating from her. He had been trying to suppress his fear of this moment, but it was resurfacing.Despite his unease, he maintained a hint of arrogance in his tone."I'm not kidding. It's just suddenly too troublesome for me to go through with the divorce. I'm fine with things as they are," he said, feeling a twinge of guilt for no apparent reason and avoiding her piercing gaze.Dexie sneered, "Really? Well, I'm not okay with that. Luke Huxley, why should I cooperate with you when you want a divorce? And now that you've changed your mind, am I supposed to just follow your whims?"Luke Huxley furrowed his brow at her question
