Chapter 588
However, Noah didn’t make the phone call in the end.He knew what was going on with that lingering feeling in his gut. He was worried and concerned. He missed Gwynn. It was the eve of New Year. Lorian was eight months old now. Noah brought his son to Nihonburg. They were going to spend their New Year's there.It started to snow when their private plane was about to land at the airport, but it was ultimately uneventful. A black limousine pulled into his villa when evening rolled in, its roof blanketed with a thin layer of snow. Getting out of the car, he swept his eyes across the surroundings. The villa wasn’t as cheerful as it was at Christmas. It was deadly quiet and not festive at all.Walking into the living room, he brushed off the snowflake on her overcoat. Gwynn was nowhere to be seen. Gladys saw him and knew what was on his mind. Carrying Lorian in her arms, she said, “Ms. Gwynn wouldn’t come downstairs. She had always had her meals up there. She wouldn’t speak too.

Out of nowhere, Noah lost his temper. Walking over to the dining table, he said dryly, “Get dinner ready.”It was a New Year's Eve dinner. So, the servants prepared a big meal for the occasion. They went in and out of the dining hall, serving dinner on the dining table. Gladys went upstairs to fetch Gwynn a nightgown. Then, she helped her mistress to sit next to Noah. She even whispered to Gwynn, “Keep Mr. Noah happy. He brought Lorian here just for you. Don’t make him regret doing it.”Gwynn was puzzled.The snowstorm got heavier outside. Noah had just taken a flight all the way back here, but he looked cold and elegant. Pouring himself a glass of whiskey, he sipped it while training his gaze on her.She was a little picky about what she wanted to eat. There were some honey-glazed ribs right in front of him and Gladys put some of it on Gwynn’s plate. However, she wouldn’t eat it, no matter what the old servant said. So, he stabbed it with his fork, reached out, and placed it b

Noah had just entered the master bedroom when it suddenly occurred to him that he and Gwynn were divorced. It would be unseemly for them to sleep together. With that said, it was quite late now. He had no intention of cleaning up the cold, unwelcoming guest room and sleeping there. So, he strode over to the bed and laid down on it. Lifting the blanket, he saw Lorian and Gwynn holding each other tightly in their sleep. His baby boy was snuggled in her embrace.Lorian’s fair cheeks were pressing against his mother’s breasts. It was supposed to be a heartwarming sight, but he saw it differently. He had suppressed his lust earlier, but it came back with a vengeance. Picking his baby boy up, he put him down at the side of the bed. Then, he pinned Gwynn to the bed and started kissing her. At the same time, he lifted the hem of her skirt with another hand. He was very anxious to have a taste of her enchanting body. He couldn’t wait to slip his manhood into her before she was ev

This is so wrong, Gladys thought to herself. Noah descended the stairs slowly and made his to the living room on the ground floor. Gianna was wearing a fur coat and a set of extravagant jewelry while she sat on the couch, drinking tea. She carried herself as if she was the lady of the house. Then, she heard footsteps on the stairs and raised her head to see who it was. That was when the sight stunned her. She had waited for him for about ten minutes. At first, she didn’t let herself overthink it. Now, however, she saw his pajamas that were pried open and some faint scratch marks that were obviously left by a lady.So, it was true. He was really fooling around with Gwynn. That ticked her off considerably. It had been a long time since he did it with her. She almost felt like she was living a nun’s life. However, she still respected him enough to make up excuses for him. Perhaps he was so busy with work that the accompanying stress killed his lust.Now, she found out that he

Noah was stunned for a while. Then, he headed upstairs without another thought. He walked with long strides and raised his voice, addressing his servant. “Take Gianna to the guest room, Gladys.”She had seen the flirtatious moment between her master and his lover on the side. She just didn’t say anything about it. Her heart broke for Gwynn. Gwynn is so pure and innocent. It did’t take a genius to figure out that she must’ve resented Noah after she saw the obscene sight. She hadn’t been too fond of Noah, to begin with. Surely, she would never let him lay a finger on her again.That was why Gladys found Gianna’s presence distasteful. Walking over to Gianna, she pulled a long face and said, “This way, Ms. Gianna!”Gianna wasn’t exactly thrilled, either. The last thing she had expected to happen was for Noah to cut her off coldly even though they had a history together. More to the point, she was turned on. What was she supposed to do if he really left her alone?!She called o

Gladys turned around and left after she said her piece. Gianna was very pissed off, but, deep down, she knew that the old servant’s words, while rough, had the ring of truth. In the past, she was very confident that she’d get Noah. Compared to the overly naive Gwynn who was out of touch with the real world, she was the far more suitable candidate to be his wife. The world should be jealous of her. However, Noah had chosen Gwynn over her without so much as a moment of hesitation. It was very clear who meant more to him. She knew who he wanted, but that didn’t mean she would just roll over!In the end, she had to sleep in the guest room.The next morning, she woke up early, put on a puffer jacket, and took a stroll outside to take in the scenery. The villa was designed by a famous architect. So, it was filled with breathtaking sights every step of the way.There was a greenhouse built in the Nihonburg style in the backyard. The mean, old snob from last night was keeping Gwynn co

Noah smoked as he took in Gianna’s miserable looks. Then, realization struck her. True to form, he broke the silence after he smoked half of the cigarette. “I don’t like an over-assertive lady! I don’t like it when a lady tries to control my life. I think I made myself clear last night. I’m promoting you to assistant director as a way of making things up to you. We’ll never sleep together ever again!”She pressed. “Is it because of Gwynn?”Instead of answering her question, he leaned over and flicked the cigarette. He said dryly, “Pack your stuff up. My chauffeur will send you to the hotel and you’ll take a flight back to Brookesville the moment the airport lets the planes fly again!”Gianna was humiliated through and through. With tears in her eyes, she asked, “How am I not better than her? My looks and capability far outmatch hers. What’s so good about her?”Rising, he walked over to the door. Holding the doorknob, he murmured, “I made an oath when we were married. I’m going

Gwynn didn’t open the study’s door.She merely sat on the carpet as she took in the filthy sights from the footage with a blank expression on her face. Her tears caught the light from the laptop and glinted sharply. Then, Noah began rapping the door. However, she had locked it. About five minutes later, the door swung open fiercely. Noah had kicked it in. He was very irritated and was about to burst into anger. Then, he saw the sultry footage and was dumbfounded for a second. It was footage of him and Gianna doing it!Clearly, Gianna had recorded it secretly in the past and gave it to his ex-wife.Walking over, he slammed the laptop shut before pulling out the flash drive and snapping it in half. He paused for a while before turning around to look at Gwynn. She was leaning on the edge of the couch as she stared off into space, visibly shocked. He carried her onto the couch, but he didn’t leave her alone. Instead, he propped one of his hands on her shoulder and caressed
