No Longer Theirs: The One They Can't Replace Chapter 442
Matthew appeared dazed. He was completely captivated. He had forsaken all responsibility, professional integrity, and obligations of confidentiality. In that moment, none of it seemed as important as the enticing figure before him."As you suspected… Ms. Sutton is indeed Mr. Blake's… lover."Hazel's chest tightened with dread. A rush of fury shot straight to her head.There was never a shortage of women in Blake's life, but none had been his girlfriend for more than three months. Sasha, however, had stayed faithfully at his side for five years straight.After sleeping with the same woman for so long, the thrill ought to have faded by now. Still, Blake refused to part with that wretched woman. Even under Nancy's urging, he showed no sign of letting her go.Could it be that Blake had actually taken a liking to that little troublemaker? The thought sent a shiver crawling over Hazel's head."You mean… Blake has been keeping her around in secret?""Yes."Hazel's voice shook. "Where?

It was late at night. Within the stone gazebo in the Thorne residence's backyard, Hazel rested on a bench, taking in the night view of the estate.Before her, a male bodyguard stood with a humble, respectful demeanor. His features were fairly refined."Matt, it's been ages. How have you been?""Everything's well, Ms. Thorne."Matthew Thackeray was six years older than Hazel and had long served at Blake's side. Like Sasha, he was one of his personal bodyguards. Having watched Hazel grow up, he felt a quiet, unspoken affection for her."Ms. Thorne, it's wonderful to see you again. I've missed you," Matthew said sincerely, his gaze lingering on Hazel's delicate, doll-like face.Hazel smiled, her eyes curving like crescent moons. "I've missed you too, Matt."The moment she called him "Matt", Matthew's cheeks burned, and his heart skipped a beat.Watching him blush, Hazel couldn't help but scoff silently. Still, her voice was as sweet as honey. "Matt, the truth is… I'm here to ask y

Sasha's radiant expression was as cold as snow-covered mountains. "You're overthinking it, Ms. Hazel. I hold no grudges against you."Hazel couldn't tear her eyes away from the breathtaking face before her. Sasha's features possessed a dangerously seductive charm. It was no wonder Blake could never bring himself to let her go.Hazel had always considered herself a jewel of high society. Back in Yenera, countless wealthy young men had vied for her attention.But now, being back in Jeston left her facing a harsh reality. Confronted with Sasha, she couldn't help but feel that her once-lauded beauty no longer commanded the same confidence.There was no way she would let a woman this alluring get close to Blake. "Watch closely, Sasha… One day, the tide will turn," she thought."I'm so glad you're not upset with me. Things couldn't be better," Hazel said. With a bright smile, she lifted her teacup. "Ms. Sutton, let's make a toast with tea instead of wine and put the past behind us. How

"Haze." A shadow flickered across Blake's face."What's wrong, Blake? I just want to see Ms. Sutton. Is that not allowed?" Hazel batted her wide, innocent eyes, looking as harmless as a lamb. "Blake, you're being awfully protective of Ms. Sutton, aren't you?"Nancy's expression, too, darkened noticeably."Haze, you're overthinking it." With a sudden smile, Blake adopted a relaxed, casual tone. "Tonight is a special family gathering. You've finally come home after all this time. Dad, Mom, and I are here to celebrate your return. Bringing an outsider would only spoil the atmosphere. Besides, with Sasha's status, she doesn't belong here."A cold laugh escaped Nancy. "Exactly. A servant like her shouldn't sit at the table with us, should she?"Blake's gaze darkened for a moment, but in the end, he remained silent. After all, the two women before him were the most important in his life.He did care for Sasha—both her looks and her figure—but it was the sort of fondness one might reser

Sasha's breathing grew heavy. Bathed in the dim light, she seemed nailed to the wall. She remained motionless, like a pale, delicate relief carved from stone.Blake slowly raised his eyes. His gaze was cold and detached as it settled on Nancy.After a long moment, he finally spoke. His voice was low and heavy. "I'm keeping her because she still serves a purpose. When she stops being useful, I'll replace her. You don't have to remind me."Hazel's lips lifted in a teasing smile. "Is she really that indispensable? Blake, do you mind elaborating?" A note of derision colored her words.Blake felt a surge of discomfort ripple through him. Still, he didn't think his beloved sister—whom he had watched grow up—intended any real harm. She was simply too candid and direct. As such, he felt no resentment toward her."I suppose Sasha is capable enough," he said flatly.Hazel erupted into mocking laughter, her crisp voice carrying across the dining room. "So she's hard to knock down, huh? I ge

"Apart from the Strouds and the Fultons, I can't be bothered with the other families in Jeston. If Hazel is to marry, she must choose someone of equal social standing. She would be better off remaining single than marrying someone beneath her."Nancy felt a pang of concern upon hearing about Reginald's poor reputation.Hazel, on the other hand, was busy helping herself to some food. Their conversation barely seemed to affect her.Compared to lifelong love, she cared more about a man's looks and power. Consequently, she gave little thought to Blake's comments about Reginald. As the Fulton family heir, he deserved her attention.She, too, came from a family of equal standing. If she truly married him, would Reginald even think of crossing her?Struck by a sudden thought, Nancy turned to Charlie. "Charlie, I remember Mr. Fulton has another son. He's four years younger than Reginald and closer in age to Haze. Reginald is already in his 30s, while Haze is barely 22. The age gap is cons
