All Chapters of I'm Glad We Met After Marriage: Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

Things were getting interesting.Mary came over and took my hand. “Why are your hands so cold? What’s wrong with Cecilia?”I pointed at the two people arguing. “I heard a bit of their conversation. Mary, do you know the guy who bought the crown at the auction?”Mary shook her head in confusion. “I don’t.”“Well, you can ask Cecilia.”Cecilia was shocked. Not only did the man let me go, but I also brought him here. She panicked and shouted, “Security! Get this person out of here!”This was a public hall. Did she think this was her home?I noticed that Zach was about to go to her. However, Tyler stood beside him and whispered, “Don’t get involved.”With that, Zach did not take another step.The staff were looking for the skinny guy since he had not paid for the crown. They asked him to go to the back to sort out the payment.The man then pointed at Cecilia and said, “She bought it, not me! She hired me to help her with the bid!”Everyone gasped, and Mary was taken aback. She l

The look in Zach’s eyes was even more unfathomable in the dim light.I did not care if he believed me. I just needed to speak my mind.“You don’t have to believe me, but I’m telling the truth.”He walked away, but he returned with a first aid kit a moment later.He crouched down in front of me and pulled out some rubbing alcohol.“Stop. I can’t stand the smell. Just a whiff, and I’ll throw up,” I said.He contemplated for a moment. Then, he put the rubbing alcohol away and took out some ointment instead. At least, it smelled a bit better.He rubbed a little on my wrist, and it felt cool. It also had a slight minty scent, which was not too bad.After that, he gently massaged my bruise. It hurt a little, but I could handle it.Zach would be very focused whenever he did something. He seemed like a professional as he gave me a massage.I looked at his nice profile and strong jawline. Then, I said something that ruined the peaceful moment, “Giving me a massage won’t make me help C

Cecilia did have the ability to do that. Mary was impressive, and she could see right through things.She noticed that Zach and I were only pretending to get along. I thought about telling Mary the truth but decided against it.Mary gently patted my hand. “Cassia, you’re sincere, sweet, and caring. Zach isn’t clueless. He just gets really attached. He might think that he’ll always love Cecilia, but one day, he might stop without realizing it.”Mary was extremely sharp. She must have sensed that I was feeling uncertain. That would explain why she was saying all this early in the morning.“Alright, Mrs. Zaffino’s porridge is ready. Should I bring it to you, or are you going downstairs to eat?”“I’ll go down. I don’t want to be treated differently. There are too many eyes on me at home.”“Don’t mind them.” Mary suddenly widened her eyes. “If they’re not happy, they should get pregnant too. In our family, a pregnancy is the biggest deal.”She was really assertive, and she had to be

“No.” Hayden finished his soup and gathered the bowls and utensils. “Give me a second. I’ll wash them for you.”“That’s not necessary. I’ll take them home. The maid will wash them.”“It won’t take long.” Hayden proceeded to wash the dishes, while I leaned on his desk and played with my phone.It was the weekend, and it felt great not having to think about work.Just then, someone knocked on the door. “Come in,” I said. The door opened, and a beautiful woman stood there.As soon as I saw her, I sensed her strong presence. It was as if she had her own theme music and special effects. The wind behind her even blew her skirt up.I could guess who she was. The name “Yulia Lawson” popped into my mind.“Dr. Smith is washing the dishes,” I told her honestly. “You can wait here for a bit.”“My office is next door. Once Dr. Smith is done, please ask him to see me.” She nodded at me before leaving.She was cool—that was my first impression of her.Hayden returned after he washed the d

“No, no, of course not. Gordon Corporation is strong and a leader in its field. West City’s growth depends mainly on Gordon Corporation, so there’s no way you can’t afford eighty million. Mrs. Gordon, there was a misunderstanding yesterday, and I’m here to sincerely apologize.” Cecilia raised the crown higher as if she were presenting something precious.Mary looked at the crown emotionlessly.“You think I wanted to buy this crown because it’s worth eighty million? No, it’s not worth that much. Your actions made it that expensive.” Mary snorted. “But my feelings for my daughter-in-law are worth much more than eighty million. Besides, I don’t want something that’s been passed around. I doubt my daughter-in-law would want it either.”Cecilia lowered her head. She probably wanted to throw the crown back at me.She thought that she was being clever. She thought that Mary would be touched and accept the crown. But how could Mary accept such an expensive gift without giving something in
