All Chapters of Love and Devotion: No Longer His to Claim: Chapter 301 - Chapter 310

It made sense that Dexter could easily stop them. He was indeed strong, being a well-built man who was over six feet tall.However, Angela was just a weak woman weighing less than 100 pounds. How could she have such immense strength that the man couldn't break free no matter how hard he tried?"Gentlemen," Angela said in a cold voice. "We have already made our stance clear. If this is indeed our fault, we will do what we can to handle the matter for the Sheppard family. But right now, we don't know all of the facts yet, and you're already resorting to violence? That's a bit excessive, don't you think?"Her gaze was sharp, and every word was firm and assertive, dramatically changing the two men's expressions.The main problem, however, was that they were at Dexter and Angela's mercy since they were unable to move.At that moment, Amber's father, Russell Sheppard, walked over, his face dark with anger. He scolded his two younger brothers, "Do not be rude toward Mr. Bamford and Ms. G

Angela stared intently into Sally's eyes as if afraid she'd miss even the slightest flicker of emotion. Sally clutched the hem of her shirt tightly, unable to utter a word for a long time."Talk!" Angela snapped impatiently.Sally's body stiffened, and she instinctively blurted out, "Amber… She had someone give me 500 thousand dollars to pull this off. I had no choice!"No wonder she took the risk. Money truly could make the world go round.Her answer was unexpected yet completely logical.However, Angela couldn't help but wonder—was Amber really that good of an actress? Was she truly this relentless?Even after committing such a grave act, she managed to play her role flawlessly, with every outburst and every defense so convincing that no one doubted her.Was she really the mastermind behind this entire scheme? It was pretty hard to believe."Can you take responsibility for your words?" Angela pressed further.With her psychological defenses completely shattered, Sally nodd

Back then, wasn't Angela herself the same? She was willing to do anything for Dexter to the point where she completely lost her dignity and became someone unrecognizable.Now, wasn't Elena doing the same thing?"Angela, you're a woman too. You know women always suffer more in situations like this. Besides, she really is pregnant, and she truly loves your brother—""That's a separate matter. You guys could just announce publicly that there was never a pregnancy and that it was all a misunderstanding." As Angela spoke, she felt a moment of uncertainty.She wondered how that foolish woman, Amber, planned to handle the issue of the baby. If she insisted on giving birth to the baby, it would really be an issue."Dexter, please, no." Seeing that Angela wouldn't change her mind, Elena turned to persuade Dexter instead. "Have some mercy on Amber just this once. She knows she was wrong. She's just young and immature. If anyone finds out what she did—""She's only 20, indeed still young an

Zack sprang up instantly. "Heck yeah! I haven't had a proper meal in days. Tonight, I'm indulging! Let me go pick out a few outfits." With an exaggerated sway of his hips, he sashayed up the stairs.Dexter had just returned home when he overheard their conversation."You're still recovering. You can't eat anything spicy," he reminded Angela absentmindedly as he set down his briefcase.Angela had been through a rough couple of days. She had just escaped death's door, only to be caught up in Zack's mess right after. Things had been overwhelming."Fine, I'll just not order anything too heavy on the palate." Angela agreed without much thought.Oddly enough, she initially didn't think much about her near-death experience. All she could think about for the past few days was Zack's situation.Yet, the moment she finally had some time to breathe, the memory of being swept underwater and suffocating kept crossing her mind.Unconsciously, she felt a tightness in her chest and her breathin

"Even a grade schooler could do that kind of work. You're just wasting my time and energy. I want to join the sales department and be a salesperson," Zack said with a somewhat peculiar expression, rubbing his nose as he spoke.Angela agreed without hesitation. "Sure, as long as you can put your pride aside, you can choose any position in the company."But sales isn't easy—it's a commission-based job. Do well, and you'll be driving luxury cars. If not, you'll be struggling to make ends meet. Are you mentally prepared for that?"Zack scoffed. "If I set my mind to it, there's nothing I can't do."He gazed out of the car window, a distant look in his eyes.As the sun dipped below the horizon, its orange glow fell on his slender shoulders, making him seem like a dazzling figure straight out of a comic book.Angela said nothing more. Instead, she silently glanced at Dexter. Their eyes met, and at that moment, they both understood why Zack suddenly wanted to change.Perhaps he also fel
