Chapter 143
Zoe returned to the mansion. The white Maserati came to a stop, and a servant promptly opened the car door. The servant looked quite pleased, saying, "Madam, someone came to the house just now and brought a lot of valuable things."She replied mysteriously, "It should be a gift from Mr. Mason."The servant was genuinely happy for Zoe, thinking she had endured a lot. However, she didn't know the cruelty of this marriage for Zoe and how innocent she truly was.Zoe didn't blame anyone. She just gave a faint smile. She ascended to the second floor and pushed open the door to the master bedroom.In the living room, there were numerous boxes filled with exquisite branded items of all kinds. There was precious clothing, rare jewelry, and high heels. There were even the haute couture dresses from the fashion show a few days ago that had been brought over.It was all extravagant; a grand and obvious gesture.Mason silently walked in. He embraced her from behind, resting his chin gentl

His gaze darkened after saying that.He wanted to start anew with Zoe, not just as a form of compensation, but because he wanted to be with her. As he had mentioned, they also had enjoyable moments, and this kind of happiness was something he hadn't experienced with anyone else.However, Zoe wasn't interested in continuing the conversation. She lazily brushed him aside, saying, "Aren't you supposed to meet Lilith? Why haven't you gone downstairs yet?"Mason sensed indifference in her tone.This feeling wasn't pleasant. Zoe didn't care about him anymore, not even a bit when Lilith came over. She was emotionless, as if she were saying he didn't deserve any of her attention.…Lilith's condition delicate. She pressured the nurse to bring her here, even keeping it a secret from her mother. She waited for a long time in the small living room, and she could even hear faint movements upstairs. There was only Mason and Zoe on the second floor, and those sounds could only come from th

Having sent Lilith off, Mason returned to the second-floor master bedroom. He wanted to call Zoe downstairs for dinner, realizing it had been a while since they had a proper meal together. He wanted to make things work with her.As he entered the bedroom, the gifts he gave were carelessly piled in the corner, as if her indifference discarded his intentions. Mason knew Zoe did it on purpose. Whatever treatment he gave her before, she was throwing right back at him.It was a back-and-forth game.From the walk-in closet came faint sounds, like someone packing luggage. Mason hurried over.Sure enough, Zoe was packing a suitcase. She was filling it with clothes, accessories, and her everyday items, cramming it full.Mason watched, feeling a sudden ache.He caught her wrist, pulling and guiding her onto the small sofa. Their bodies were now close, his voice dangerous. "Where are you going?"Zoe didn't struggle. She looked up at her husband, observing the anxiety and urgency in his e

The servant hastily said, "Yes. Madam left on her own with her luggage.""She's got some spirit!"With that, Mason went upstairs. When he checked the time, it wasn't quite the waking hour. He decided to lie back down.Zoe's faint fragrance lingered around the bed.That scent captivated Mason's soul.He liked the way she smelled.She was always clean, with a hint of light shower gel. Every time they were intimate, he couldn't help but bury himself in her silky hair from behind, getting as close as possible. Just thinking about it, Mason felt overwhelmed.As he groomed and changed clothes, he pondered whether Zoe's delicate body was too enticing or if his own desires were simply too strong. The more he thought about it, the more irritated he became. Now, she hadn't even bothered to call.She seemed to be determined to give him the cold shoulder.…At noon, Zoe arrived at Hucksburgh Airport.This time, David urgently asked for her help, citing some issues with the venue in

Mason flew to Hucksburgh, and by the time the car arrived at Hucksburgh Hotel, it was nine in the evening.Neon lights were shining brightly.The night was gentle and charming.Mason stepped out of the black RV. At first glance. He saw a couple strolling side by side.His wife was with another man.In the early winter night, she wore a deep camel cashmere coat. Her long black hair cascaded over her shoulders with a slight curl, adding a touch of romance to the night. Her face was serene, and there was even a hint of joy in her expression, especially when she talked to Cecil. Her gaze was focused.It was nothing like when he looked at her, cold and indifferent.Mason, in his distinguished attire, stood in the hotel atrium. He raised his hand to check the time.When he saw the photo in the late afternoon, it was exactly six o'clock. Now it was already nine, meaning for these three hours, Zoe had been with Cecil, spending time together like lovers.Mason walked toward them.Zoe

After a long time, he finally stopped.He pressed his lips against her soft ones, whispering, "You're not allowed to like him."Zoe pushed him away, her tone indifferent. "I'll order dinner for you. Talking about likes and dislikes is childish."However, he pulled her back.Mason kissed her again, lifting her off the ground to kiss her deeply. After several years of marriage, Zoe only now realized how obsessed Mason could be in such matters. When he finally let her go, her legs trembled uncontrollably.She felt embarrassed thinking about what had happened just then..Mason was practically a beast.His sophisticated appearance was just a facade. At his core, he wasn't much different from those lecherous and vulgar men. He played even more recklessly.Zoe remained unmoved.She had deeply loved Mason and had witnessed his nobility, wealth, and the tenderness he showed when necessary. For young girls experiencing their first love, these were irresistible qualities.However, Mason
Chapter 149
Mason asked softly, "What's making you so happy?"Zoe was rarely in a cheerful mood. However, sharing joy with Mason wasn't suitable for their current relationship. She held her phone and vaguely said, "The thing I've been wanting to buy is finally available."Mason thought it might be some luxurious item like jewelry. He smiled and said, "Whatever you want, I'll buy it for you."Holding her phone, Zoe walked barefoot into the closet. Mason's voice came from behind."You never let your phone out of your sight. Are you worried I'll see something I shouldn't? Did you add some new eye candy to your contacts list again?"In the closet, Zoe picked out an outfit to change into. She spoke softly, "What secrets could I have? Hucksburgh is your stronghold, right? Returning to a familiar place should bring back some memories, right?"There was a slight twinge in Mason's heart. He followed her, leaning against the door and gazing at her serene appearance. He couldn't help but say, "I ha

"What is it?" Though not yet 30, Mason was known for his calm demeanor in the business world. It was a force to be reckoned with. However, what Ava said next threw him into a panic.Speaking in a hushed tone, Ava said, "Did you agree to let Lilith do a photoshoot for a keepsake? It was originally my responsibility, but with the wedding preparations keeping me busy, I delegated the task to an assistant. "The assistant misunderstood the situation. They actually gave the keys to Kirk Manor to the Wright family. Early this morning, Lilith did a photoshoot inside, and she even posted it on Facebook with a caption that's quite over the top. 'The one who isn't loved is the real mistress.'"Mason's grip on his phone turned white. In the next five seconds, he devised a plan. "Immediately contact the person in charge at Facebook. Make sure they delete Lilith's Facebook post at all costs. I don't want Zoe to see this.""I'll do my best! But by now, the post has already been shared 100,00
