Chapter 84

Author: Light Breeze
The morning light pierced through the thin mist, casting a soft glow into the bedroom.

Willow was packing her belongings. Aside from a few sets of clothes and Snowy, she didn't take much.

It only took her a few minutes to gather everything. Then, it was time to leave the Ziegler residence.

The bedroom door swung open, and Julian stepped inside.

Moments ago, he just had a heated argument with Melanie. She accused him of hiding Willow's condition, while he felt she was being heartless and unreasonable.

The moment he entered the room, he saw Willow bending over, folding the sheets, which still held the warmth from the night before.

Julian walked toward her and wrapped his arms gently around her waist.

He didn't say a word, but Willow understood what he meant.

He didn't want a divorce.

She found it absurd, yet she still chose to respond calmly.

"Julian, look at how humiliating this marriage has been for me. Today, everyone heard that I couldn't bear children.

"I can't stay here

  • Leaving You Bereft   Chapter 749

    In the meantime, in Crimsonir, Xavier was in his hotel room, holding his phone and watching the live stream of the charity banquet.There was a slight young girl seated on the couch to the side—Amber.Amber recognized Xavier, the man Violet had once brought her to meet. He was very handsome, lived in a grand villa, and even had a costly piano in his house. She hadn't anticipated that it would be Xavier who would come to her rescue once she had been sold to the others.In the past six months, Amber had grown increasingly timid. Anna had flown over to stay with her, bathed her, and bought her a whole new set of clothes. They were now waiting for Amber's adoptive parents to come and pick her up. Amber had spent some time living under the same roof with Lucia and Luke, only for Violet to subsequently come over to take her away from them back then.Having finished her food, Amber fixed her big, dark eyes on Xavier. She finally couldn't hold back, inching closer to glimpse the phone scre

    Gabriella felt an indescribable feeling stirring within her. She didn't dwell on it, choosing instead to simply watch Xavier leave.It wasn't long before Xavier's car pulled away, steadily disappearing from view.Gabriella's life carried on as before. She picked up and dropped off Ash and Lynn at school every day, spent a couple of hours a day on business, and occasionally appeared at social gatherings. She and Xavier weren't ones for daily video calls—that kind of interaction was reserved for deeply affectionate couples, after all. He, however, did send daily WhatsApp messages, sharing updates that verified his presence in Crimsonir.Gabriella chose not to delve, simply maintaining the pretense that Xavier's trip to Crimsonir was purely for business.…It was three days later when Gabriella attended a relatively large-scale charity banquet held in Brindley.That evening, the donated auction items fetched more than 300 million dollars, which were funds designated for rebuilding

    Gabriella walked into the study. She then glanced at Xavier's phone and asked offhandedly, "Did Anna call?"Xavier didn't want her to find out about Amber, fearing any misunderstanding. Thus, he smiled faintly and confirmed that it was Anna. He then approached, relieved her of the fruit platter, and then fed her a small piece. "I'll be traveling to Crimsonir for work."Gabriella gently bit into the fruit, gazing at Xavier and surmising that he was going to Crimsonir to look for Amber. She chose not to call him out, though. She instead walked toward the couch, sat down, and looked up at Xavier. "When are you leaving? I'll help you pack your luggage."Though he was reluctant, Xavier replied softly, "I'll be leaving tomorrow morning."He thought Gabriella would be displeased, but she merely smiled faintly and said, "Got it. How long will you be away, then?"Xavier held his phone, mulling it over before saying, "It's not set in stone yet. If things go smoothly, three to five days; if

    Xavier and Gabriella simply held each other in silence.Then, as the snow began to fall more heavily, Xavier reached out and pulled the curtains closed, the dense fabric obscuring the view outside.Gabriella merely turned to look at him.Xavier's gaze grew more profound. Then, he reached out, scooped Gabriella up, and made his way to the spacious bed in their bedroom.Gabriella was momentarily stunned. She instinctively threw her arms around Xavier's neck as she was worried that she might fall, before exclaiming, "X-Xavier!"It wasn't that she was reluctant, but the timing didn't feel right. It should have been done at night, in a pitch-dark room, not in the middle of the day, and certainly not on the afternoon of New Year's Eve, as if they were an ordinary couple furtively engaging in private affairs away from the kids.Xavier gently lowered her onto the bed, then moved to hover above her. He cradled the back of her neck and held her gaze, his voice dropping to a low, seductive

    Gabriella's eyes lingered on the diamond ring, noting that it fit her perfectly and that the diamond's brilliance was impeccable.It was said that no woman could ever dislike diamonds, and Gabriella, who possessed a substantial jewelry collection herself, recognized that this particular ring, with its extraordinarily rare, roughly eight-carat diamond, easily surpassed the value of all the other pieces.She gazed at it for quite a while, then finally murmured, "Put it on me."Xavier was overcome with joy as he gently slid the diamond ring onto her ring finger. It fit perfectly, and the diamond's brilliance set off her slender fingers beautifully.Xavier then glanced up at her, his eyes brimming with affection.Gabriella smiled faintly, saying, "It's absolutely stunning. Thanks, Xavier."Xavier felt a torrent of words and actions building inside him, but as he met her peaceful gaze, it all softened into a deeply affectionate embrace. His voice was thick with emotion as he murmured,

    Gabriella lifted her gaze to look at Xavier.Xavier opened the front passenger door with one hand, while the other reached up to guard the car's frame to protect Gabriella from knocking into it, as he tenderly instructed, "Get in."Gabriella smiled faintly and slipped into the car.Xavier closed the car door but didn't get in right away; instead, he chatted with Julian and Willow.Julian and Willow, as Gabriella's parents, were fraught with mixed feelings. They'd seen this couple fail twice before, leaving them to wonder if a third try would fare any better. However, Gabriella was an adult now, so outright parental intervention felt improper.Thus, Julian simply patted Xavier on the shoulder, saying, "You ought to be more accommodating toward Gabriella if any disagreement arises since it's not good for her to get too worked up."Xavier attempted to reply, but his voice seemed to fail him. He then replied softly after a pause, "I understand. I'll take them back now, and we'll retu
