Chapter 367
Ella was wearing the ruby necklace on her neck. Clearly, she and Farley were a couple!He might’ve looked calm on the surface, but he was actually shocked to the core. It turned out that Zoe and Farley weren’t a couple. Instead, Ella was his girlfriend. That meant that Zoe was single.It was a huge deal, especially for him!He used to assume that Zoe was Farley’s girlfriend and even fantasized about them having sex together. That, in turn, made it hard for him to sleep with her because he couldn’t accept having to ‘share’ her with another man.Now, however, he felt an intense urge to have sex with her as soon as he could.Then, he got into his car. He might’ve been over thirty years old, but he was as impulsive and passionate as he was when he was a teenager. All he wanted to do now was go back to Kirk Manor and see Zoe at once.Luke was about to start driving when a slender silhouette blocked the car’s path. It was none other than Eira. Now that the car was paused, she sei
Chapter 368
Zoe hadn’t realized that Mason was standing at the door. She picked up the violin and showed Yanni how to play it properly. Needless to say, she couldn’t play it as well as she did in the past, but she still crushed it.She finished playing an entire song and turned around. She was about to say something to her daughter when she saw Mason. He was staring at her lustfully. However, their daughter was right there. So, he kept a lid on his lust and sat on the couch. His face was slightly red from a couple of glasses of wine he drank earlier, making him look that much more appealing underneath the glow of the crystal chandelier. He had sobered up slightly when Yanni climbed on top of him and asked for his hug. He held her up, sat her on his waist, and carried Sherry over as well. Then, Yanni started counting his abs. Each of them was solid and defined.He lowered his head and looked at his little girl, but he spoke to Zoe in a tender tone, “What made you want to show her how to play

Pressing himself against her, Mason murmured in a sultry voice, “You claimed you weren’t in the mood last night and now you’re telling me it’s not your fertile window tonight. Are you purposely leaving me with blue balls? Can I not have sex with you outside of the fertile window?”“No!” Her answer was so absolute and allowed no room for negotiation. Pushing him away, she calmed down and proceeded to clarify the situation with him. “I moved back here for Yanni’s sake. I didn’t do it because I want to reconcile with you! You’re right. I don’t have a boyfriend whatsoever, but it doesn’t mean I have to be with you!”His heart sank, but he didn’t let it show on his face. After all, he deserved this punishment. So, he didn’t force it to happen, but they started treating each other coldly and kept a distance. Even Mia was able to see it and expressed her concern to Zoe that it might affect Yanni. Zoe merely responded, “Mason kept it cool in front of Yanni!”The fact was, she knew he

He might’ve dressed modestly, but she could never forget him. She’d remember his face to her dying breath.So much time had passed and he finally returned!They locked gazes with each other. In fact, they hadn’t even filed for divorce. So, technically, they were still a married couple. Tears streamed down her cheeks as she tried and failed to grasp the twist on the situation. As far as she was concerned, Westley was long dead. Why else wouldn’t he return to Ruby and Cecil? It had been so long. Needless to say, she had plenty of chances to ask Ruby about his whereabouts, but the thought had never crossed her mind. She had her pride, after all.Her lips started trembling. She had loved him with all of her heart. Since the split, that love had been twisted into hatred that lasted for as long as she lived. Then, she murmured, “You’re such a heartless monster!”He took a step forward.However, she fell back with a dazed look on her face. Then, she staggered and left the scene in a

Zoe was lost in thought. So, she was startled when he held her shoulders.Leaning over, he turned on the night light and said softly, “It’s just me! Are you alright?”Under the warm glow of the night light, Zoe remained quiet and stared at him instead. The words were caught in her throat. It wasn’t every day that she showed such a tender expression towards him. He simply couldn’t resist hugging her and kissing her by the makeup table. She didn’t want it, but the light from the night light was so bright that she was worried Yanni might’ve woken up if she protested. So, she had no choice but to go along with it. He could sense that she wasn’t completely into it. He stopped and pressed his lip against hers. Panting lightly, he asked, “What’s the matter?”Leaning her back on the makeup table, her pajamas were pulled open. She looked slightly seductive like that, but she didn’t have room in her mind to care about it. Looking at him, she said softly, “I ran into a guy today. He coul

Mason used to be married to Zoe for many years. Naturally, he could sense that he still had a place in Zoe’s heart. However, she hated him more than she loved him. There was also the fact that she wouldn’t admit that she still had feelings for him. After all, she wouldn’t let herself go and longingly waited for his every thrust if she hadn’t loved him.Both of them knew about it, but none would say it out loud.…Zoe laid next to Yanni by the time they were done. She stayed awake for a long time, lost in thought. She, too, knew that something shifted in their relationship. It was something she didn’t want to admit. If Mason weren’t going to bring it up, she wouldn’t say anything on the matter either. She’d still leave Brookesville when the time was right.Zoe had long grown out of her youth. They had parted ways with each another gut-wrenchingly one too many times. It wasn’t something a great sex or two could fix. All of a sudden, he grabbed her hands in the darkness. He aske

Leaning over, Luke said to his master, “It’s your father, Mr. Mason. Do you want to talk to him?”Mason said with a blank face, “Do you mean Westley?”However, Luke didn’t dare respond to him. Lowering the car window, Mason looked to the side of the car and saw Westley. The man looked older, compared to how he had remembered him. If his memory served him correctly, Westley hadn’t reached forty years old when he left his wife and son. He had been in the prime of his life. A car window was the only thing that separated them, but they didn’t call out to each other and reconcile. Instead, Westley merely stared at his son in silence. Mason had to host the shareholder meeting today. So, he wore a custom-tailored suit that accentuated his dignified and stunning look. He was no longer the little boy Westley knew him to be. On top of it, he gave Westley a cold, distant look the way he would a stranger. Westley’s hands started to tremble. He wanted to call out to his son, but Mason

However, there was only a single red line on the pregnancy test. The result threw her into a daze for a long time. Sitting down on the toilet slowly, she tried but failed to process what she had just seen. It wasn’t as if she had a choice. She had to accept it.She wasn’t pregnant!That left her and Mason two more months to get pregnant. Time was running short. The pressure was immense. She didn’t leave the restroom until she had sat in there for a long time. Mason was playing with Yanni when he heard her footsteps and raised his eyes to look at her. He could see something from her expression, but they were parents now. He knew that some things were better left unsaid in front of the kid. They postponed the talk until Yanni was asleep. Mason took a shower while Zoe sat by the makeup table, combing her hair. Her figure looked so slender underneath the glow of the dim light, retaining the look of someone who hadn’t given birth to a child. Walking over to her, he leaned on the m
