Chapter 1264
Gael might've done it just to get back at Yanni. He spent the night with Emilia in the villa. They had a history. So, they wasted no time in embracing each other and indulged in their desires once they entered the master bedroom.Gael had some alcohol in him and quickly finished the sex, but Emilia felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction. She had finally stepped into the role of the mistress of the villa, replacing Yanni. With her wish fulfilled, Emilia felt a warmth in her heart. When Gael turned over to sleep, she wasn’t upset. Instead, she went to the bathroom to fetch a warm towel to tend to him. Emilia knelt beside Gael as she gently and attentively wiped him down. She turned his arm and caught a glint of something shiny falling from his hand. It was a diamond ring, dazzling and beautiful. This was Yanni's wedding ring. However, she was a surgeon who often performed operations. So, she rarely wore it. That was why it remained as good as new after seven years. Emili
Chapter 1265
Gael was overwhelmed with deep emotions, and he couldn’t help but call out, “Yanni.” …Half a month later, autumn deepened and early winter approached. Yanni sat on the sofa, reviewing a document. The bright office was warmed by the heating, creating a cozy atmosphere. On her desk stood a crystal vase filled with the calla lilies that Keaton had sent her. Keaton had been bringing fresh ones every other day. He always replaced them with new blooms. He said he wanted to make sure that Yanni would think of him whenever she had a moment of leisure. How childish! Be that as it may, her lips would curl into a faint smile, and her mood would lift inexplicably whenever she thought of Keaton. With her recent research on Ansley’s condition progressing well, Yanni felt confident that she could successfully perform the surgery, given that they had a suitable heart from a donor. Yanni wasn’t a saint. She was a doctor. Just as she was focused on her work, a knock sounded at the do
Chapter 1266
Gael held an invitation in his hand. His purpose for coming was the same as Emilia’s.Yanni leaned back on the sofa. She rubbed her forehead and said with a hint of a headache, “If you came to deliver an invitation, you’re too late, Gael. Your future wife has already dropped by. Didn’t she tell you?”Gael paused, finally noticing Emilia. She looked guilty. She had just blocked the Mueller fellow, and Gael arrived immediately after.Yanni glanced between Emilia and Gael. She was fully aware of what was going on. Emilia cheated on Gael.What Gael thought was Emilia's gentle and considerate nature was actually just her being resourceful. Aside from not officially divorcing Carter, she also secretly seduced another man behind his back. Yanni didn’t feel the need to confront it. She wasn’t a relationship detective. She had long said that this was the path Gael chose for himself.Gael looked at Emilia. He felt dissatisfied, but he wanted to preserve his dignity. He draped his arm ov

Gael shared a few profound thoughts, and the matter was brushed aside.…At 7:00 pm, Gael was still at the hospital. Meanwhile, Emilia felt anxious as she watched the time. She worried that the Mueller fellow might call again and kept urging Gael to leave.At 7:30 pm, Gael reluctantly departed. As he left, his heart was full of appreciation for Emilia's thoughtfulness. Once he was gone, she began getting ready to head out.Ansley looked up at her with wide and innocent eyes. Her voice was barely a whisper. “Are you going out again, Mom?”Emilia gave a perfunctory reply.Ansley was a sickly child, and she lacked any sense of security after being constantly dismissed and frightened by Emilia. Now, she could only sit quietly on the sofa and play with her toys after Emilia scolded her. The nurses nearby felt sympathy for Ansley, but no one could intervene with Emilia. They thought she was pitiful to have such a mother.…At exactly 8:00 pm, Emilia arrived at the hotel. When Troy

So, Yanni asked Keaton again.…Keaton didn’t want to rush into anything. He looked at Yanni, her face glowing beautifully under the lights. Although he had slept with her, they hadn’t crossed any lines in the past month. Yanni had been busy. She was often caught up in one or two surgeries each day, and today was one of the rare moments she had to herself. Keaton felt a pang of sympathy for her but respected her dedication to her work. Every day, he came to pick her up after work and prepared a late-night meal for her before heading home. In the mornings, Keaton would bring Ella over, just so the little girl could drop Yanni off at the hospital together. Being with a mature man like Keaton made Yanni feel at ease.Keaton stepped closer and wrapped his arms around Yanni. He had just come in from the cold, and the thin wool coat he wore still carried a chill. It felt cool at first when her face rested against his shoulder, but it was replaced by warmth soon. Yanni enjoyed the

Then, Keaton and Yanni kissed. His lips were warm, and he held Yanni close. He kissed her again and again until she completely melted in his embrace…That night, Yanni stayed over at Keaton’s place.…Three days later, it was Gael’s wedding.Time was tight, but Gael still gave Emilia the grandest celebration. At the Regent Hotel, he hosted a lavish banquet with a total of 99 tables, inviting the city's elite. He might've just done it to witness the spectacle. Surprisingly, many people showed up.Emilia looked stunning today. Gael had prepared a custom wedding gown worth millions, making her resemble a swan. The jewelry she wore was worth several million dollars altogether, making her the absolute center of attention. Everyone addressed her as Gael's wife.Emilia felt that everything was worth it.Yanni and Keaton arrived with little Ella. The former didn’t dress up particularly. She merely wore a thin cashmere dress under a black coat, looking warm and perfectly matched with Kea
Chapter 1270
The scene was suffocating. Gael had never seen Emilia like this. She was completely lost in the moment with Troy, her words dripping with abandon. As he stood at the door and peered through the crack, he felt a wave of nausea wash over him. Gael should have charged in and confronted Troy for sleeping with Emilia. Surprisingly, however, Gael felt a strange calmness. Today wasn’t the day for a scene. With hundreds of guests in the banquet hall, each one influential, he couldn’t afford to lose face. Emilia was just a woman, after all. They hadn’t even registered their marriage yet.Despite convincing himself, Gael's heart felt heavy. He walked to the end of the corridor and leaned against the window. Then, he lit a cigarette to gather his thoughts. He needed to think carefully about his future with Emilia.The night wind howled, contrasting sharply with the lively banquet hall behind Gael. Emilia was in the lounge and lost in a passionate embrace with another man. Meanwhile, he stoo

Troy smiled playfully and said, “If you know what today is, then why are you still messing around with me?”Emilia got off the bed and touched up her lipstick in front of the mirror. She looked indifferent. “It’s just a formality! I'm just fooling that simpleton—Gael.”Troy was well-dressed. He walked over and wrapped his arms around her slim waist, leaning down to kiss her fair neck. “When should we meet again?”In truth, Troy wasn't attracted by Emilia, given her age, appearance, and figure. However, it was different since she was Gael's wife. Sleeping with her was quite thrilling.Emilia looked at the reflection in the mirror. She thought for a moment and said, “In a few days!”Troy smiled and left. Then, Emilia opened the door after she finished her makeup. To her surprise, she found Gael standing there with a very displeased expression.Emilia was taken aback. “What are you doing here, Gael?”Underneath the dazzling crystal chandelier, Gael's expression was extremely grim.
