Love You Like I Used To? Forget It! Chapter 389
I had decided to give Irvin one last chance when we were in Falveria. If he had said this to me with equal conviction back then, we would probably be at home right now, happily wrapped up in each other's arms.However, he hadn't. Every time I had given him another chance, he had squandered it. Yet, he always came back begging for another. How many chances was I supposed to give him?Irvin mistook my silence as a sign that I was caving. So, with a pitiful expression, he held my arms and said, "I really know I'm wrong this time, babe. And I can truly make it right! So, believe me—just this once. Please believe me. Just one last time, okay?"I studied him again. I took in the apologetic look on his face and the way he was childishly whining. I took in how he was looking at me with the same expression I always couldn't resist.I still felt like caving into his demands, except I could control that urge now. So, I stared at Irvin with a gaze that was colder than the dead of winter."I
Love You Like I Used To? Forget It! Chapter 388
If William's chaotic thoughts had all been because Grace had put on an act as part of her scheme, it all added up now. And as expected, it made perfect sense. He wasn't angered by the truth, nor did he want to kill Grace. Instead, he felt a strange sense of relief.The warm and beautiful moment William had experienced had been an illusion. The world was still the same dark place he knew. Someone like him was never meant to experience warmth or have a ray of light shining down on him.William picked up the lighter his brother had given him—the one he had left behind in a fit of anger—and left without saying another word.Grace's heart had been stuck in her throat the entire time. It was only after she saw him close the door did she finally exhale in relief. Although she and her closest aide had sighed in relief, they still remained tense out of fear that William might return unexpectedly again.30 minutes had passed with no sign of William returning. Only then did the pair finally a

Grace and her closest aide knew how ruthless William was. And if he ever found out she had taken the credit from his real savior, the consequences would be disastrous. Not only would they lose the benefits William had been giving them, but he might even kill them for it.His upbringing was vastly different from those who were born into prestigious families. After losing the protection of his brother and sister-in-law at a young age, William had to rely solely on his fierce resolve to fight his way through a den of vipers.So, not only was he not a good person, but he was ruthless and utterly cold-hearted. Anyone he regarded as an enemy had never met a good end.In that moment, Grace and her aide silently prayed William hadn't heard what they'd just said. Unfortunately, judging from the frosty air he was emanating, he had.Grace's aide finally snapped out of his shock and turned to her with a look of terror. When Grace met his gaze, she was so furious that she practically wanted to

Whenever Grace had an appointment with William, she would usually arrive 15 minutes earlier at the agreed location. William, on the other hand, would always arrive exactly on time.This time, she arrived 15 minutes early, as usual, only to find him already waiting for her. Grace instantly had a bad feeling about it. After all, if something smelled fishy, it probably was. Still, she didn't let anything show and sat down with a warm smile."Is there anything you would like to eat, Mr. Ashford?" she asked.As she spoke, she opened the menu the waiter had handed her. William gestured for the waiter to leave first. Then, he leveled her with a piercing and cold gaze.Grace's heart missed a beat. Before she could even ask William what was going on, he slid his phone toward her.A video was playing on the screen. It was the footage from the VIP airport lounge that she had her assistant record. Although Grace hadn't appeared in the video, William knew she was the one behind the recording

"I know how deeply committed you are to your research, Emi," Gideon said. "And once you dive into your work, you can be preoccupied for days at a time. "Are you sure you want to marry a man you have no emotional connection with? Can you really feel at ease about leaving your child under his care? Would he even want to raise the child?"But marrying me will be different. You know my character, and you've met my parents. So, you know what kind of people they are. Plus, we're also on equal footing financially. "And while I can't guarantee everything right now, at the very least, I will genuinely care for our child. And I'm definitely not someone who'd kill you just to take your assets."Then, taking a deep breath, he added, "Stop thinking it wouldn't be fair of you to marry me just because you can't return my feelings. Being with you—even if you don't love me—is still so much better than having no chance at all and regretting it for the rest of my life!"And I don't feel wronged at
Love You Like I Used To? Forget It! Chapter 384
Cordelia was already giddy from imagining us raising our children together in the future. She painted such a vivid picture that I couldn't help looking forward to it too.It was funny how people's mindsets changed with age. When I was younger, I believed marriage had to be rooted in love. But now, I was fine with finding someone to share a life with for practical reasons. In fact, I had even considered artificial insemination if I couldn't find a suitable partner. The love that I once thought was vital didn't seem so important anymore.Cordelia and I were opposites in this regard. I used to be single-minded when it came to romantic relationships and marriage. But now, I had grown out of that mindset and felt anyone with the right qualities would do.Cordelia, on the other hand, used to just fool around. And now, she had found true love. She used to just breeze through relationships for years without ever getting too attached. But now, she was totally smitten. She was only apar

I really wanted to remarry and have a child as soon as possible. That being said, I still needed to choose a partner carefully. My child deserved good genes, and I wanted to avoid unnecessary trouble in the future.Ideally, I was looking for someone highly intelligent, good-looking, and had decent character. I also wanted him to be career-oriented. Additionally, I wanted our marriage to be more like we just lived together and had a mutually beneficial relationship. To put it simply, it would be a marriage of convenience.However, finding the right person for this wasn't easy. Even after several days of searching, I still hadn't found a suitable candidate.Coincidentally, Cordelia was back again on a break.A thought occurred to me, so I asked her, "Do you know any single archaeologists with high IQs and a Ph.D? If so, do any of them think marriage is a hassle and don't want to live a traditional married life, but still have to get married for some reason?"Cordelia leaned back a

Noah was of mixed heritage. His mother was a pure-blooded Falvarian, so naturally, his grandfather was too.The moment I appeared on screen, Noah's grandfather didn't seem to want to waste too much time on me. He probably didn't see any need to.Cutting straight to the chase, he said, "Noah is the heir to the Hull and the Ashford families. You've already been married once. And even if you hadn't, someone like you could never be good enough for him.""I never thought of being with Noah," I replied flatly.Because of this, I felt there was no need for Noah's grandfather to target me.Noah's grandfather scowled at my words. He might not want his grandson to marry a divorcée like me. However, he found it even harder to accept that I had no interest in his grandson."In that case, why are you still leading Noah on? Don't claim you're unaware of his feelings for you!" he snapped.I was about to say I had never done so and had always plainly rejected Noah.But Noah's grandfather cut m
