I Refuse to Divorce! Chapter 876
It was Anderson’s wife, Talia. Gwynn was stunned. Then, she said faintly, “Show her inside!”Not long after, she heard the clicks of high heels. Talia got herself some backup before she came here. She was here with a couple of assistants. Obviously, she was here to take Gwynn down a peg. Gwynn was very perceptive. She knew what Talia was here for. She handed the pencil to her daughter and said tenderly, “Go ahead and draw what you want, Holly! I need to talk to the lady over there.”Holly nodded. “I’ll be a good girl and stay here.”She couldn’t help but giggle a little. She just loved her little girl so much that she had to give her a kiss before she went away. It was such a heartwarming sight that it left a sour taste in Talia’s heart. At first, she thought the lady who had bewitched her husband must’ve had a secret affair with him.However, it was obvious that Gwynn didn’t care about Anderson at all. The former looked so affectionate when she looked at Holly. Talia c

Anderson’s delicate face was filled with nothing but shock. Worried that he might not have understood her, Gwynn added, “I’ve cut ties with the Templetons ever since I left four years ago!”His sanity had all but snapped when he heard what she said. His wife might as well have not been there at that moment. Staring right into Gwynn’s eyes, he asked, dazed, “What do you mean by cutting ties? Answer me, Gwynn! Your blood flows in my veins, and Grandpa’s blood flows in your veins as well. “Even Lorian carries the Templeton gene within him. Pray, tell. How do you suppose you could cut ties with us?”Gwynn was no longer a naive, young lady. If this had happened in the past, she might’ve gotten furious over what happened. She’d be mad at the universe for treating her unfairly. The reality, however, was that she was a mature lady now. She knew that the word ‘fair’ meant nothing to the universe. Anderson was Archibald’s only grandson. The latter had poured his heart and soul into

Anderson left the gallery with tears in his eyes.…It was night. Gwynn was checking on Lorian’s homework. Holly had just been bathed. She was wearing her cow pajamas and sitting on her mom’s bed, talking to her dad on the phone. Her voice was soft and tender when she grumbled, “A mean lady came to see Mommy today. She even fought with Mommy and gave her fifty million dollars to leave my side. She also said she wanted to take Lorian and me away…”She was so disheartened that she started sniffling and weeping. “I don’t want anyone to take me away.“I want Mommy.” …Noah was in Hucksburgh.The debacle between Rosie and one of the Carters was almost resolved by now, but he needed to clean up the mess thoroughly before he could leave.He was staying in a five-star hotel in the city. At that moment, he was standing by the window. Loosening his tie gently, he soothed his daughter over the phone, “I’m here, sweetheart. No one’s going to take you away.”Holly curled up in her
I Refuse to Divorce! Chapter 879
It was Friday. Gwynn had a business meeting to attend. Mary was the one who invited her. So, she went to the place at seven o’clock. To her surprise, she saw some familiar faces in the private room. It was Noah and Rosie. It had been a week since she last saw the latter. The young lady was much skinnier now. She was sitting next to him, looking pretty as she did. Noah rested his hand on her chair and chatted with Toby.Toby looked at Rosie and addressed her as Noah’s wife.The dozen people at the table fell into silence. Mary poked at her husband’s elbow and said, “His actual wife is standing over there!”All of a sudden, things were very awkward in the room. Instead of flinching, she sat right next to Mary and spoke elegantly. “Noah and I got divorced four years ago. So, it doesn’t matter who we want to marry in the future.”Noah hosted the dinner tonight. Rosie got on the wrong side of the Carter family. So, she was facing a similar situation as Ewan did back then. Ther

Silence hung over the car. Then, she finally broke the silence. “Did you find it fun to pull a fast one over me with Rosie?”Leaning over, he looked at her. He said calmly, “You also tricked me with someone who doesn’t even exist! Are you honestly going to tell me that the man on the phone was your boyfriend?”She stepped on the gas pedal and responded to him in a most uncharacteristic manner. “That was Gregory. You know him too. He helped me a lot when I was in Seridian. We’ve been keeping in touch with each other ever since I returned to Brookesville.”Now, Noah was a perceptive man. She didn’t like explaining herself but did just that for Gregory. That could only have meant one thing. He couldn’t help but question her. “Did he make a move on you? Do you have feelings for him?”She didn’t deny it. Driving her car, she peered into the darkness outside and said dryly, “He looked after me when I was overseas. On top of that, both of us were going through a divorce. It’s more t

Noah dropped his phone. Snatching the car key from Gwynn, he spoke in an extremely somber tone. “Lorian’s in the hospital. We have to get there now.”Gwynn followed him unquestioningly. Nothing else mattered now, neither Gianna nor Rosie. Her only priority was their son, Lorian. Even Noah forgot that he had been drinking earlier that night and sat in the driver’s seat.She got into the car and buckled herself up. Meanwhile, he made another phone call to Archibald. He didn’t talk to the old man with his usual, respectful tone. Instead, he spoke plainly. “Listen to me, Archibald. If your people so much as laid a finger on Lorian, I swear I’ll make life hell for the Templetons.”Archibald fell silent on the other end of the phone. Tossing the phone aside, Noah stepped on the gas pedal. The white BMW tore through the street and hurtled to the hospital. The car window was lowered, allowing the wind to rush into the car. Gwynn sat next to him and remained quiet. She didn’t kno

Talia didn’t expect it at all.She was born and raised in a wealthy and powerful family. Never had she thought she’d be humiliated in front of this many people, much less her in-laws. She said in a daze, “Aren’t you worried that the Templetons will make your life a misery?”“I am!”Noah yanked her hair and pinned her on the door, hard. A bruise immediately bloomed on Talia’s head.She screamed, “Do you have no respect for the law?”He slammed her head on the door in response. Glancing at at Archibald, he asked, “You Templetons abducted my son from his home and drew seventeen ounces of his blood without my permission. Is that how the law works for you, Archibald?”Then, he flung Talia away and pointed at the old man.“If this happens again, then I’ll make you bleed, old man!“I don’t care how much power you wield or how many shady tricks you’ve got. I certainly couldn’t give a rat’s ass about your precious great-grandson’s well-being. It has nothing to do with me or my son. “I

Anderson frowned. Archibald’s lips twitched uncontrollably. He thought Talia was a good wife for his grandson because she was educated, thoughtful, and courteous. It had never occurred to him that she’d use fifty million dollars to try to chase Gwynn out of the country. He couldn’t hold himself back and barked, “You moron!”Talia sobbed. “I did it for our family.”Marisol also couldn’t stand it anymore. She said, “Gwynn is Dad’s daughter when all’s said and done. What makes you think it’s okay to do something like that?”Talia had her reasons for doing so, but she couldn’t say it out loud. In any case, she didn’t want to let everyone know about it, either. So, she pursed her lips, pretended to be stubborn, and refused to admit her own mistake.Noah sneered at her, “Fifty million dollars? Do I look like a beggar who can’t support his own wife?”He hated her so much for doing so that he pulled out a stack of notes from his wallet and tossed them in her face in a humiliating way.
