Chapter 755
Noah was drunk, but he wasn’t wasted. Lowering his head, he looked at Gianna, who was in his arms. It was the middle of the night and she was dressed in a provocative silk sleeping gown. It reached her ankles, covering her lack of a foot entirely. The fact was, she looked as alluring as before, but he was no longer turned on by her.Prying off her arms, he said, “I promised Gwynn that I’d never sleep with anyone else.”His words hurt her. “You used to say that you want to make it up to me.”He merely stared at her in response.After a brief moment, he brushed past her and went into the presidential suite. Rubbing his forehead, he said, “We need to talk about this, Gianna.”They used to be lovers. He owed her an honest explanation. She followed him inside and closed the door. Silence hung over the suite. They parted on nasty terms back in Birkenfeld. So, she was particularly understanding this time. He had just sat down on the couch when she took over a pair of slippers,
Chapter 756
Leaning closer, Noah checked on Gwynn. Her eyes were closed and she was breathing evenly. To his surprise, she fell asleep!He couldn’t help but get depressed. Was sex so bland between them now? How could she have drifted off to sleep in the middle of it? If this were in the past, he would’ve woken her up, pinned her down, and had rough sex with her. Now, however, he couldn’t bring himself to do that. Rolling to the side, he lay down next to her as his firm chest rose and fell. Moments later, he rose and went to the bathroom. He turned on the hot water and the room was filled with steam immediately. Throwing his head back, he masturbated and unloaded his pent-up lust in one go.…Gwynn woke up early in the morning.It was December. The winter jasmine in the garden bloomed. She was there, trimming the leaves and branches. Gladys was standing next to her, nagging at her. “It’s not every day Mr. Noah comes back home without you prompting him. You should’ve stayed in bed wi

Gianna was very surprised at what he said. She was definitely hoping she could stay in Brookesville, but she didn’t think Noah would agree to it this easily. So, she didn’t forget to give him some assurance amidst her surprise. “Don’t worry, Noah. I won’t come between you and Gwynn anymore.“Actually, I won’t give you any trouble anymore. All I ask is to live closer to you.” Obviously, she was trying to win him over with what she said, but there was some degree of truth in there too.She turned her back on her entire family for his sake. He was the only person she had left in her life.Her eyes welled up with tears. He merely looked at her quietly and didn’t say anything. That night, he didn’t stay in the suite for too long. A couple of days later, he bought an apartment for her that was located in a strategic spot. It was well over two thousand and three hundred square feet with luxurious renovations. He didn’t ask Kim to buy it on his behalf. This time, he did it himself.

Noah leaned back on the couch and smoked quietly. He frowned at what she said.He didn’t love Gianna at all. He merely came to her place to mend his broken heart. It had nothing to do with love or anything like that. With that said, he didn’t correct her. Taking the suit jacket, he patted it lightly. “I’m going to go home now!”“It’s pouring out there.” She sat up and said softly, “Can you stay just a little while longer? You can leave when the rain stops.”At that moment, thunder rumbled outside. He sat down again and watched the business news halfheartedly. Gianna started to make a move on him. Leaning on his shoulder, she reached out and touched his nipples. At the same time, she kissed the back of his ears with a reddened face. She knew clearly this was his sensitive spot. Once she kissed his ears, he’d turn into an animal that wanted nothing more than sating its lust. His eyes welled up with tears as he lowered his head and looked at her. After a brief moment, he sa

Gwynn didn’t say anything for a long time.Noah felt guilty. Walking into the bedroom, he closed the door and said tenderly, “You’re awake.”She stared at him with unblinking eyes. After a brief moment, she said dryly, “I didn’t sleep for the whole night, like you did.”It was pointless to keep on pretending that everything was okay. Walking over to the couch, he sat down and pulled out the elegant jewelry box. “Come over here and see if you like it. If you don’t, I’ll go with you and pick another jewelry set sometime.”She stood underneath the glow of the morning light. The mockery in her tone was unmistakable. “What’s the point of playing the loving husband, Noah? Back then, I took Gladys and our kids to Glacena. I stepped aside so Gianna could take my place and be your wife.“Then, you tracked us down and said you wanted to start things over. Is this your way of starting over, by keeping her as your mistress in secret?“Trust me when I say that I don’t mind the fact that

Gwynn rolled to the side and tried to scramble to her feet so she could run away. However, he grabbed her by the ankle and dragged her back to his side. Then, he tied both of her hands up with his tie and posed her in the most humiliating way possible. She wept and trembled, looking defeated. He stood by the bed and cast a cold sidelong glance at her miserable pose. Raising his hand, he unbuttoned his shirt. Her body was fair and perky, casting a stark contrast against his towering and ripped body.Dragging her to himself, he pinched her chin and kissed her. He also humiliated her, “That’s all you care about, Gwynn! You’re not being honest with yourself right now.”She lay on the white bedsheet. Her black hair was tousled, giving rise to a fragile but beautiful sight. She looked ripe for the taking and the entire picture was enough to drive any man crazy. Out of nowhere, she burst out laughing. Her canines were visible whenever she laughed. It looked adorable normally, bu

Gwynn walked over to the couch. Leaning over, she picked up the jewelry box and opened it. There was an extravagant ruby jewelry set in there. It caught the glow from the ceiling light and reflected it brilliantly. Any other lady would’ve loved it, she thought to herself.She stared at it for a long time. Noah thought she wanted it. So, he said generously, “Take it with you! I bought it for you anyway.”Her lips curled up into a smirk. Raising her hand, she poured the lavishing pieces of jewelry on the floor. She couldn’t care less about them. She even took off her pink diamond ring and tossed it into the pile. She treated them the way she would pieces of junk!His eyelids twitched. Staring into her eyes, he said in an extremely husky voice, “Don’t I matter to you at all, Gwynn?! You wouldn’t take anything I give you! Don’t you care, even a little, about what we used to have between us?”She smiled ever so faintly. “Pray, tell. What did we have between us, Noah?“What

Gladys was stunned. She had looked after Gwynn for a long time now. In fact, she was there back when the latter was still a naive and innocent young lady. Her mistress couldn’t even watch when she was cutting fish for meals. A tiny drop of blood would terrify her mistress too.However, Gwynn actually did something so horrible that it never ceased to astound her! That wasn’t to say that she didn’t agree with what her mistress did, though. In fact, she thought it was a work of art.Gwynn leaned over and looked at Noah. “We have to hit the road now! I have some matters to attend to at noon! The point is, we’re leaving. So, you might as well not waste our time!”His brows furrowed.It was darker in the car. Tried as he might, but he couldn’t see any trace of longing in her eyes. Rather, it looked like she couldn’t get away faster from him. She simply used Gianna as an excuse to achieve that goal. She had known about the latter’s return to Brookesville, but she didn’t bring up the s
