Gwynn took a sip of the wine. She decided to hide her real feelings. “Not at all. Her style just doesn’t fit the direction I want my gallery to go.”Noah thought he wouldn’t press any further. Leaning back on the chair, he took his time with the wine. Moments later, he pushed a bowl of dessert to her side of the table and stared at her intensely, “Have some dessert.”He was so tender and devilishly handsome. No lady could’ve resisted his casual charm, let alone when he fully intended to seduce her!Gwynn wasn’t that dense. Lowering her gaze, she thought about it. Her voice was soft, but she was very serious. “I’ll admit that I used to have feelings for you four years ago, Noah. I did think about patching things up with you and starting things over between us. “With that said, the feelings I had paled in comparison with our ugly past. What’s more, we were separated for four long years.”Then, she rejected him softly. “Can we please just let go of the past?”His eyes grew da

“What do you think you’re doing, Noah?”Gwynn had a delicate body, and she was forced to lean on the sink. The kettle was boiling and making bubbling sounds, masking her involuntary grunts of pleasure. Her back was lean, and her waist was slender. He couldn’t resist reaching into her embroidered dress. Everywhere he touched was smooth as silk. He simply couldn’t get enough of it. The cramped kitchen was filled with his heavy panting, which was a sign of his excitement and repressed lust. With that said, fondling her was hardly doing anything for him. It wasn’t satisfying and did nothing to scratch the itch. Turning her around, he pressed his searing body against hers. Both of them hadn’t had sex with anyone for four long years. So, of course, they were going to be turned on as their bodies pressed against each other with nothing but thin layers of fabric between them.His eyes grew darker. Closing his lips on hers, he kissed her from various angles. After that, he felt he

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 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

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
