Gwynn wore a blank expression. “Sure, I do. You did this for Anderson.”Archibald gave himself some time before he reacted. “Anderson’s still in prison! Are you going to tell me that he doesn’t deserve a second chance, too?”She lowered her gaze and said quietly, “You’re the one who doesn’t deserve a second chance!“You shouldn’t have messed with Noah’s brake pads.“If the kids and I were in the car that day, then I probably wouldn’t be able to stand before you now. You would’ve killed me and masked it as an accident! The same goes for Lorian and Holly!“I’m aware Anderson is all you care about.“Well, Lorian and Holly are the only people I care about! I’ll do everything to avenge them if you put them in harm’s way. I don’t care if it means doing something to you or the Templetons’ reputation. In fact, I don’t care if Anderson survives it!”…It took Gwynn everything she’s got.After all, she was saying something this heartless to her biological father. It actually pained her
Chapter 929
Half an hour later, a black limousine pulled into the villa and parked at the front porch. Once the car stopped, Noah carried Gwynn out of the car.She had slept the entire drive. He carried her through the luxurious door and living room before climbing the stairs and heading toward the master bedroom. He didn’t even break a sweat when he set her down on the bed. Sitting by the side of the bed, he brushed her tousled hair aside.Then, he touched her perky cheeks. He simply couldn’t have enough of her. At the next moment, he heard some footsteps from the door. It didn’t take him long to know that it was Holly. The little girl saw her mom sleeping the moment she came in. So, she tiptoed toward her Dad, and whispered, “Is Mom tired?”“Yeah. She’s exhausted.” He patted his daughter’s head. Holly’s eyes were big and black, glinting brilliantly. Then, she tiptoed over, cupped her mom’s cheeks, and gave her a kiss. It looked like she, too, couldn’t have enough of her mom. He

Noah hung up the phone. He saw the bewildered look on Gwynn’s face and said softly, “It’s true. He’s exactly who you think he is!”This revelation shattered the way she saw the world. After a brief moment, she asked in a daze, “Why would he do this? He’s Archibald’s chief assistant. He answers to no one but him.”He leaned on the headboard and stared at her with unblinking eyes, naked lust in his eyes. She couldn’t take his gaze and lowered her head. Only then did he tear his gaze away in satisfaction. His tone was cold when he spoke. “Money can solve almost everything in the world, Gwynn. Everyone craves for it! Even you fell for me because of the amount of money I used while I was trying to win your heart… Fine. Okay. I won’t bring it up again. I swear.“With that said, I don’t think he’s just doing it for the money. There’s some other reason here, I think.”…Gwynn sat next to him and fell into a trance, listening to him. Much like the way a loyal dog would do. He loo

Gladys secretly loved the drama of the moment.Noah took the snacks she offered him. He got into the car and buckled himself in. Then, he thought about it and made a phone call to Kim. It was the middle of the night, but she had just received a villa from him. So, her voice was gentle when she spoke. “Is there anything I can do for you, Mr. Noah?”He said faintly, “Have the public relations department make an announcement first thing in the morning. Gwynn has accepted my proposal. We’re going to get married this year.”She was so shocked that she dropped her jaw. “You’re getting married again, Mr. Noah. Is it necessary to make it a big thing?!”He raises his delicate eyebrow. “What’s the matter? Why can’t I make it a spectacle when I get married again?”Not only was he going to make it a spectacle, but he was going to make sure that everyone in the city knew about it. Every last soul in Brookesville would know that he managed to win Gwynn’s heart again and that they were about t

Noah was shocked. He still needed some time to process this information. After all, he had a vasectomy. It’d take a miracle for him to impregnate anyone… And that was what happened, apparently. He was having another baby with Gwynn.He was stunned for several seconds. That ticked her off. Pushing him away gently, her voice grew cold when she spoke. “Tell me you aren’t wondering about who the baby’s father is! If you’re going to wonder about something like this, then we should just call off the marriage. You don’t have to force yourself to say that this baby’s yours.”“That’s not what I mean!” he responded hurriedly. Then, he cupped her belly as if it was the most precious thing in the world. He caressed it with his palm back and forth. He even asked her something dumb. “Is it a boy or a girl?”She smacked his hand away. “I’m only pregnant for a little over a month. How am I supposed to know?”At the next moment, he swooped her up and headed into the bedroom. Worried that he w

“The director of the Sanders Group has successfully proposed to his wife. A big wedding ceremony is to be expected soon.”There were even pictures in the newspaper. The article was probably done in a rush too because they used an old picture. Noah and Gwynn looked much younger than they were right now. While Gwynn still looked perky, it was a massively different look compared to her current appearance. Anderson was in a daze, staring at it.The next thing he knew, someone snatched the paper out of his hands. It was Talia. Her voice was thick with sarcasm when she spoke. “She’s getting married, for Heaven’s sake. Why are you still so reluctant to let her go? Actually, you’re reluctant to let a lot of things go. Who in the world do you actually love, Anderson?“I guess it’s hard to choose, huh! On one hand, you’ve got your beloved Gwynn. On the other hand, you’ve got the bitch who’s pregnant with your baby.”…He was shocked beyond reason. Reaching out, he grabbed her hand

Gwynn was still a little dazed when she sat in the car. He held her hands gently, leaned over, and said tenderly, “What’s on your mind?”She held his arm and rested her head on his shoulder. She spoke softly. “Sometimes, I’d wake up from my dreams in the middle of the night. I’d think about how we came to where we are today.“Anderson is married and he has his own kids. Tied down by his status, he wouldn’t have been able to do anything that’s out of the line. Moreover, he cares about me on some level.“I just don’t get it. Why couldn’t Archibald accept me?“I can’t get over the fact that he messed with your brake pads.”…Noah’s voice was husky when he said, “It’s because of power and status! He wanted to help his grandson.”“Does this mean he only thinks of me as a blemish in Anderson’s life?” She was a little disheartened. Leaning in close, he kissed her on the corner of her lips and murmured, “You’ll always be the most important person to me!”What he said did make her f

Zoe and Mia did most of the planning for the wedding. On the other hand, Gwynn focused on her pregnancy.It felt different this time, though. In fact, it was similar to how it felt when she was pregnant with Lorian. She had a feeling that it was a baby boy. However, Noah was looking forward to having a daughter. So, she didn’t say anything to him. If she told him about it, then he might not be able to sleep and think about how he wanted to impregnate her again. Soon, it was the middle of autumn. The leaves on the trees outside the window were starting to grow yellow. Their edges were curling up as well. Sometimes, there was a thin blanket of white on their surfaces at night. The servants started turning on the heat in the villa. It was warm and comfortable everywhere. Gwynn almost didn’t leave her home. Evening rolled on and Noah gave her a call. He said he wanted to pick her up for dinner and take her to try out the gowns they had just altered. She agreed to it readily. T
