Chapter 1146 Even when he was trapped in his own nightmare back then, he had still been planning for her future. Noreen’s eyes instantly welled up with tears. She was hit with a desperate, crushing need to see him, to bury herself in his arms. To kiss him. It felt
Chapter 1145 The moment Noreen slipped back into the room, Claire frantically signaled her with her eyes. While Rosalind was busy chatting with Bianca, Claire leaned in and whispered, “If you had come back any later, your mom was going out there to catch you red- handed.” Noreen was speechless.
Chapter 1144 Noreen’s entire body tensed, her muffled voice slipping through their tangled lips. “Someone… someone’s here!” Seth didn’t stop. He deepened the kiss, his tongue invading her mouth, as if pouring every ounce of his agonizing longing into this single moment. The stone at her back was freezing, and
Chapter 1143 “Mom, people are looking. Save me some dignity,” Healy pleaded. Mrs. Naylor pulled her hand back, but her anger hadn’t subsided. She demanded, “Did you fight with Gia last night?” The easy smile faded from Healy’s face. He didn’t deny it. “Yeah.” “I’ve been thinking about this for
Chapter 1142 “Because I lost track of time, I was afraid they would get suspicious. So, I intentionally drove my car into the concrete barrier to stage a crash and distract them. It bought me enough time to scrub the security footage that could have ruined you.” As for why
Chapter 1141 The car dropped Noreen Gilmore off at her apartment building. This time, she wasn’t in a rush to get out. The driver tactfully stepped out of the vehicle, leaving them alone. The atmosphere in the backseat was several degrees colder than usual, but Seth Harcourt’s hand clutching hers
Chapter 1140 As for the fake escort, he was swiftly dragged out by Jude. Gia was practically sitting on pins and needles. She was terrified the man would sell her out. She wanted to discuss damage control with Crystal, but Crystal had already bolted out the door, chasing after Dylan.
Chapter 1139 “There was indeed a man in Room 419 five years ago.” “But it wasn’t you.” Seth leaned forward slightly, closing the distance toward the escort. His eyes were bottomless pits of freezing wrath. “Because the man in that room with her…” He paused for a fraction of a
Chapter 1138 But back then, she and Seth had already gone their separate ways, so she had immediately and completely dismissed the possibility. She assumed the physical similarities were just hallucinations brought on by her lingering feelings for her ex. “What? Has the big boss forgotten about me?” The man
Chapter 1137 The moment the thought crossed his mind, Crystal and Gia pushed the door open and walked back in. The smile on Jude’s face vanished instantly. Crystal noticed, fully aware that he didn’t want her there. But she didn’t care. She was here to watch Noreen’s dramatic downfall. She
Chapter 1136 It made her own love feel incredibly cheap. Because Healy had never cared about her that way. The difference in how much effort a man put in was obvious the moment you compared them. No one knew that Gia had fought tooth and nail to secure this engagement
Chapter 1135 Jude had never heard of the song. As he searched the database, he muttered, “Is it really that obscure? Why don’t you sing it first so I can hear what it’s about?” Noreen was equally curious to see what Seth looked like when he sang. Jude queued up
Chapter 1134 Watching the crowd shower Noreen with praise, Gia felt the bright smile on Noreen’s face was unbearably blinding. … The lighting in the private room was dim and seductive, the music blending with laughter, the air sweet with the scent of champagne and buttercream. Dylan was surrounded by
Chapter 1133 Jennifer was unaware of the bitter history between Crystal, Gia, and Noreen. Assuming they were just Healy’s friends, she politely greeted them. Crystal was incredibly arrogant, giving a stiff nod before taking a seat. Gia was slightly more polite, greeting Jennifer back, but she completely ignored Noreen and
Chapter 1132 Dylan’s tone remained cool and composed as he flatly declined. “Mrs. Chelsea, I already have plans tonight. I’m sorry.” His rejection was entirely undisguised. Seeing how obvious he was being, Nancy couldn’t push the issue. She tried to smooth things over. “I suppose that makes sense. You young
Chapter 1131 She had no definitive answer. She was afraid. She was also hesitant. Claire Chase knew exactly how she felt, so she quickly smoothed things over for Noreen. “Oh, please! We don’t subscribe to that outdated custom of officially defining relationships!” Jennifer Shaw used to have the exact same
Chapter 1130 She wanted her to have a good night’s sleep. The moment she laid down, a message from Seth popped up. He asked if she was asleep yet. Her fingertips paused before she replied, [Just about to go to sleep.] He replied instantly. [Can I call you? I want
Chapter 1129 Noreen naturally noticed the undisguised resentment burning in Seth’s eyes, and she couldn’t help but find it amusing. His gaze was intense, heavy enough to make the air in the cabin feel suffocating. Noreen suddenly felt a wave of fondness. The ruthless man who never yielded an inch
Chapter 1128 Noreen sat across from Sage and greeted him. “How has Seth been lately?” Sage asked her. “He’s been doing well,” Noreen replied. “That’s good to hear.” Relief washed over Sage’s face before he continued, “I know it might not be my place to say this, but I’d like
Chapter 1127 Of course, they were highly interested in such explosive news. Crystal eyed the cheaply dressed woman in front of her with outright disgust. Making zero effort to hide her contempt, she pulled a wad of cash from her designer bag and tossed it at Lillian. “Is this enough?”
