Hanging up the phone, Mason went back inside. Zoe was already awake and making breakfast. Dressed in light-colored casual wear, she tied her hair up, revealing her fair neck. Underneath the gentle glow of the morning light, she looked tender and delicate.Hugging her from behind, he kissed her neck and said, “Something came up. I can’t have breakfast with you! I’ll give you your new apartment’s key and address. You can swing by and take a look at it when you have the time. I’ll help you move in in a couple of days.”She responded, “Okay.”Then, he kissed her again and said in the most affectionate tone, “You don’t have to go to work if it still hurts.”She couldn’t help but retort. “It doesn’t hurt anymore!”He said deliberately, “Geez. Then, that means…”Pushing him away, she murmured, “You said that there’s an emergency! Hit the road already.”All of a sudden, he pinned her on the kitchen door and kissed her roughly. Slipping in his tongue, he tasted every corner of her mout
Chapter 565
Ever since Zoe went missing, Noah spent the past year trying to move his business from Silvercrest to Brookesville. Lockwood Corporation was still the top group company in the city’s latest financial evaluation, with Leslie’s and Noah’s companies not far behind.The Schmidts had been building up their businesses for generations, while Noah singlehandedly brought his company up to its glorious state now. Needless to say, he partook in unconventional and ruthless methods to attain success.Now that he traveled back to Brookesville, Gwynn was left behind in Nihonburg. She was still the same after all these years. Her mind was still that of a child, always clinging to him. She was fearful of him, but she could never leave him.She gave birth to a boy. His name was Lorian and his father took care of him most of the time!Gwynn, however, had never been close to her son. Her appearance and her mind were akin to those of a teenager’s. For the past six months, she’d fought back most vehemen

Clearing his throat, he said, “Yeah! I was with Alice yesterday.”She said fondly, “Geez. She’s mom. Why would you call her Alice instead? How shameless of you, Daddy.”Mason didn’t have a good comeback for that. He waited until the black limousine was far away before he looked at Mia and said, “Did Yanni just sass me?”She responded, “If the boot fits!”He touched his nose in response. However, he simply had too much of a good time last night. So, he didn’t let it bother him. He carried Jamie in his arms and kissed him, “Mom’s going to be back soon. You don’t have to call her Alice anymore.”Jamie might’ve been a little boy, but he knew what was going on. “Daddy loves Alice.”This time, both Mason and Mia chuckled. She grumbled light-heartedly, “It’s your fault. You didn’t do a good job with both of your kids. Now, they have sharp tongues. Zoe’s going to get on your case!”Underneath the morning sunlight, he said in a serene smile, “I’ll soothe her when that happens.”Tears fi

It was evening. The last traces of the evening light cast its orange ray through the window and into the room. Its glow softened their features as she stared at Yanni in silence. The little girl had an impeccable appearance.Aside from being very pretty, there was something about her that Zoe loved very much. She couldn’t put her finger on it, though. After a brief pause, she couldn’t help but patted Yanni’s head and said truthfully, “You’re right. I love your dad.”Yanni said brightly, “Don’t worry, Alice. Both Jamie and I won’t get in your way of winning my dad’s heart. If you to get married someday, maybe both of us can be your flower girls.”Raising her eyes, the little girl stared into Zoe’s eyes, “We can even start calling you ‘Mom’ or ‘Mommy.’”Zoe didn’t have any comeback for that. Then, she heard the sound of a car pulling into the yard. Mason was probably back home.He parked the car and turned off the engine. Then, he got out of the car. It was quite chilly ou

Taking the card, she flipped it over and examined it. It was a VIP bank card crested in diamonds. Needless to say, it was different from the common bank cards. They should probably have plated it with pure gold and adorned it with jades while they were at it. In any case, Zoe was concerned that he didn’t apply a bank card in her name. Instead, he used his name. That was undoubtedly an intimate gesture. She couldn’t accept it. She murmured, “We’ve known each other for barely three months, Mason. This is moving too fast.”Caressing her cheeks, he responded, “We’ve done way more intimate stuff, Zoe. How is this moving too fast?”Her face turned red at that. Then, he tucked the bank card in her pocket before leaning close to kiss her, “In fact, my salary goes into this bank card! I know I’m the director, but I get paid every month too. “Not counting the dividend, my year-round salary is a little over twenty million dollars and they’re all in here! How about it? Does it feel good

Zoe’s heart started pounding!She had never thought Mason would want to have a baby with her. After all, he already had a son and a daughter. She was concerned about Yanni’s feelings in particular. The little girl was eight years old. Out of respect to her birth mother, she might not want another younger brother or sister. That wasn’t even talking about the kids’ different status in the family.She stared at him briefly before she groaned, “Mason!”Instead of responding to her, he ran his hand across her face gently. It was quiet in the night and they were alone in the car. She couldn’t help but think back to the passionate moments they shared last night. After a long time, she couldn’t take it and turned her face to the side and murmured, “It’s turned green!”He chuckled in response and stepped on the gas pedal lightly. Instead of heading to her apartment, he drove for another five minutes before pulling over by a drugstore.Unbuckling himself, he said, “I need to buy somethi

Caressing his neck, she could barely hold onto him. His skin was covered in sweat. Beads of sweat rolled down his Adam’s apple and dripped on where their private parts were joined with each other. A puddle had collected on the floor, painting a sultry picture. She moaned and said, “Take it easy, Mason!”He couldn’t!With that said, he cared about her feelings. Gripping her arms, he wrapped them around his hips. Slowing down a little, he lowered his head and stared at her. Then, he made her look at him. Pressing against her lips, he talked dirty to her, “Look at me, Zoe. I want you to look at me. Turn me on more and make it feel all the better for me.”She couldn’t do it. She didn’t dare to look at him, let alone when his manhood slipped in and out of her. Sometimes, a lady’s pride and reluctant acceptance act like an aphrodisiac for a man. It was enough to make him go crazy. More to the point, it had been a long time since he had had sex with her. What they did last night

“Mom… I mean, Alice?” Yanni sounded vulnerable. She was on the verge of tears.Zoe’s lips trembled. She carried Yanni into her arms, but she didn’t ask or say anything. The fact was that there could only be one answer for it. There was only one answer where it could explain how she ended up with Mason and why he treated her this way.She was his estranged wife!Doing everything she could to suppress her own feelings, she held the little girl’s hands and told Luke they’d hail a cab when they were done with dinner.The old chauffeur checked in with Mason before agreeing to it. Running her fingers across Yanni’s face, she said, “Let’s go have some dinner!”Then, she shouldered her school bag and kept holding onto the little girl’s hands, reluctant to let go.Mom’s back! Yanni thought to herself.Zoe picked a high-end restaurant for dinner. It was The One Gourmet, a global chain of French restaurants. The moment she stepped into it, the waiter was stunned. She stammered, “Ms. Zoe!
