Marrying My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin Chapter 469
"You're too good. How can you be this good?" Isolde said emotionally.Bruce tightened his arms and drew her closer, his chin brushing the top of her head as a satisfied smile deepened in his eyes. "As long as you like it.""Waaah, I'm dying of envy!" Joan covered her face in exaggerated despair from the side. "Envious of people with good husbands. Those of us without one can only cross the ocean and leave our hometowns!"The other colleagues joined in the teasing and laughter.The tips of Isolde's ears burned. She lifted her head from Bruce's chest, embarrassed.Bruce raised an eyebrow, glanced at Joan and the crowd, and spoke at an unhurried pace. "Five times the year-end bonus."The room fell silent for a second. Then an even louder cheer erupted."Long live Prince! Long live Ms. Vancrest!""I love Southbridge! I love the new base!""What is a foreign land? I was born a Southbridge man, and I'll die a Southbridge soul!"…The smile in Bruce's eyes deepened as he held Isold

Bruce's car pulled into a brand-new skyscraper.The building stood in the center of the emerging technology park in Southbridge. Its streamlined exterior gleamed with a cold metallic luster under the orange-red glow of the sunset. The logo on the facade was covered with cloth, adding an air of mystery."Isn't it a gala? Why are we here?" Isolde turned to Bruce in confusion.He unfastened her seatbelt and took her hand. "You'll know once we go up.""Fine." Isolde let him lead her toward the entrance.The lobby rose to an astonishing height. The polished, mirror-like marble floor reflected the dome's streamlined lighting design, giving the vast space a minimalist, technological feel.There was no one at the front desk, only silent smart gates.Bruce approached, and the gates slid open without a sound.Isolde glanced around, wondering if this could be his new company.The elevator went straight to the 48th floor.The moment the doors opened, confetti cannons burst with loud bang

"Tonight, I'm going to—""Prince!" Bruce's assistant, James, rushed in. "The guests have all arrived, and everything is ready for the gala—"He caught sight of the scene before him and stopped short.His scalp prickled. He spun around in a panic, words tumbling out. "I-I didn't see anything! I-I wasn't here!"With that, he bolted as if for his life.Isolde flushed. She reached up to straighten Bruce's rumpled collar and tie. "You're going to a gala tonight?"It was no wonder he was dressed so formally.Bruce nodded. He took her small, busy hand and enclosed it in his palm. "The return gala I prepared for you.""For me?" Isolde blinked, startled."To celebrate your full recovery," he said. "The queen's return."Isolde stilled. Then understanding broke over her, and a hot surge filled her chest.Word had already spread through the industry that her hand injury had been so severe it might leave her disabled.Who knew how many competitors watched from the shadows, how many wond

Bruce had changed into a perfectly tailored black custom-made suit that accentuated his broad shoulders and narrow waist, giving him the upright bearing of a pine tree.His hair was meticulously styled, revealing a full forehead and sharply defined brows.He was already handsome enough to draw hostility, but now, with the added polish, he was so striking that one hardly dared look at him directly. He seemed even more dazzling than the sunlight outside the window.Most lethal of all, his shirt collar was slightly open, exposing a fresh, ambiguous red mark on his slender neck.That was the "evidence of crime" she had left behind in last night's passion.The austere, disciplined suit stood in sharp contrast to the sensual mark on his skin, creating an almost bewitching allure.Isolde could not help but gulp, her mind flashing uncontrollably through vivid fragments of the night before.Bruce's thin lips curved slightly as he stepped forward and leaned in. He braced his arms on the b

Isolde shot up from the bed, anger surging. "That's despicable! Why didn't you tell me earlier? We start work tomorrow!"After hanging up, she immediately opened an app and booked a flight for that night.As she stared at the ticket confirmation, her anger slowly gave way to reason.In five hours, she would be flying to Preta, leaving Bruce behind.She had not discussed it with him. She had not even told him. She did not dare imagine the look of disappointment on his face when he found out.A faint ache spread through her chest.…After washing up, Isolde changed into comfortable home clothes and walked toward the study.The door stood slightly ajar. Bruce's low, steady voice drifted from inside.She nudged the door open and peered inside.Sunlight filled the study. Bruce sat behind a large desk, with a dark bookshelf spanning the wall behind him. The glow of the computer screen highlighted the sharp lines of his profile, his high nose bridge and set jaw lending him a cold, b

Isolde barely had time to react before Bruce lifted her into his arms. In a few strides, he carried her to the wide, soft sofa and pressed her down beneath his solid body.His kiss followed. It burned as it claimed her, parting her lips with insistence, taking without hesitation.The air turned hot and heavy.Clothes fell into disarray. Their breaths tangled.Bruce braced himself above her, his dark eyes tinged red with desire."I want you…" His voice came out hoarse, restrained yet searing with intensity. "Can I?"Isolde's body went weak, as if the strength had drained from her bones, leaving her soft and yielding."If I said no…" She lifted her arms and wrapped them around his neck, tilting her head up to meet him. Her lips brushed his Adam's apple in a warm, damp kiss, then trailed along his neck, leaving faint marks in their wake. "Would you stop?"Bruce's body stiffened for a brief moment. He lowered his gaze. "Of course."Isolde smiled like a sly, lazy cat, her fingertip

"H-How could you… hit my wound?" Alan's voice trembled.Isolde stepped back several paces, widening the distance between them."You don't believe I'm marrying Bruce? Then ask him yourself," she spat coldly.Pain flared in Alan's arm, and blood trickled down the back of his hand. He stared at her,

"Alan!" Sandra's face turned pale with fright, her body frozen in place.Ruth rushed forward in panic. The moment she saw Alan's twisted arm, her eyes filled with tears. "Alan! My son! Bruce, Alan is your cousin! How could you strike him so cruelly? How could you—"Bruce's expression stayed cold a

"What?" Alan's pupils contracted sharply. If Isolde's parents found out about the breakup, his plan to use them to force a reconciliation would be completely ruined."How dare you say that? You are the most filial one. Aren't you afraid Mom will be so sad and worried that she won't be able to sleep

Walter asked, "Would tomorrow be convenient? After all, the bride and groom's attire is a matching set. Trying them on together will give a better sense of the overall look."'Trying on wedding gowns with Bruce?' The thought alone made Isolde tense.Walter's reasoning was sound, though, and she co
