Chapter 223

Author: Glazed Snow
Stanley's face turned cold in an instant. He had never forgotten about her taking the morning-after pill for Nathan. The lack of contact between them these past few weeks was his way of slowly distancing himself.

But today, she came back to the family estate for dinner. He thought she was softening, maybe even trying to make amends.

And yet, what was she saying?

She said she wanted a divorce, and that she couldn't wait another day.

Did she think he had the patience to deal with her?

Stanley's eyes sharpened, cold as knives, as he grabbed her slender arm. "Wendy, you came back tonight just to make me miserable, didn't you?"

Wendy immediately jerked away from his grip. "Don't touch me with your filthy hands!"

What did she say?

She tilted her face up, meeting his dark, threatening gaze, her voice cold and steady as she enunciated, "Stanley, you are absolutely disgusting."

Disgusting in a way she couldn't stand anymore.

Stanley's temples pulsed with veins. His grip tightened ar

  • The Heartbreak Prescription   Chapter 1138

    Nathan said, "My assistants and secretaries are all men. There are no women around me, so you don't have to worry."Ivy blinked. Was he…explaining himself to her?She knew she was only sweet-talking him because she wanted to get pregnant, but the more time she spent with Nathan, the more she noticed all the bright parts of him. He really was a good man.With his status and his looks, he was pretty much the highest level you could get in an arranged marriage.Nathan opened the passenger door for her like a gentleman. "Get in."Ivy climbed in, and Nathan got behind the wheel. He stepped on the gas, and the luxury car took off.-Half an hour later, they arrived at the movie theater. It was a weekday, so there weren't many people.Nathan held the movie tickets, then spotted the concession stand. "Do you want popcorn?"Ivy had only been to a movie once, when she was very young. She had come with her parents.Tabitha had held her hand. She remembered seeing the popcorn and tuggi

    Ivy could feel how hard Nathan was kissing her. Men really were visual creatures. Last night, he didn't even want to come back to the bedroom.Nathan's hand slid down her leg, reaching to pull off her clothes.Ivy stopped him quickly. "Wait."His voice turned rough. "What is it?""You said it yourself. We're in your office."Nathan pinched her cheek lightly. "Quit pretending. You came here dressed like this just to get me worked up."Ivy had no comeback for that. He wasn't wrong.Nathan moved again to take off her dress, but Ivy held his hand down. "No. You'll rip my stockings.""I'll buy you new ones.""I don't want new ones."Her tone was firm enough that Nathan's jaw tightened. He let out a low laugh. "So you're teasing me on purpose now?"Ivy wrapped her arms around his neck. "If you want me, then you're taking me shopping, watching a movie with me, and eating out with me."Nathan said, "Fine. We'll go now."Ivy blinked. He actually agreed?She had actually been try

    Nathan finished signing and looked up, only to spot Ivy. His gaze stopped instantly.She had arrived wearing a black coat, but now that she had taken it off, he could see what she had on underneath: a fitted black dress. And more importantly, she wore black stockings.Her legs were stunning, long and straight, and the stockings made them even more eye-catching. Paired with slim high heels, she looked incredible just standing there reading a book.Nathan always had good taste in women. And he had to admit, his arranged-marriage wife was top tier in every category.She had a gorgeous face, a perfect figure, talent, ambition, and immaculate taste.The Lowe family was one of the top families in the country, and Keith had chosen his granddaughter-in-law with extreme precision. He hadn't chosen wrong.Martin spoke beside him. "Mr. Lowe, the meeting starts soon."Nathan barely glanced at him as he said, "Cancel the meeting."Martin froze. "Sorry, what was that?""Cancel it. And cle

    Ivy went quiet. She definitely hadn't done it on purpose.But she couldn't say that now. She knew exactly why she was here. She was supposed to win Nathan over.She looked at his sharp, handsome face. "Yup, I did it on purpose. So what? You're my husband. If I want to sit on your lap, I'm going to sit on your lap."Nathan's lips curved. "Yesterday, I said you weren't very affectionate during the day, and now you show up like this?""Of course. I've taken your feedback into account, and I'm making improvements. Couples have to learn from each other, be patient, and be understanding. That's how we last."Nathan studied her well-behaved expression. He lifted an eyebrow but said nothing.Ivy said, "The soup's going to get cold. Drink it while it's hot."She poured a bowl of chicken soup, lifted the spoon, and held it to his mouth. "Open wide, honey."Nathan looked at her. "You didn't poison it, right?"Ivy froze. Was he treating himself like some tragic hero and her like the villa

    The receptionist suddenly felt like she was witnessing a real-life high-society marriage play out in front of her."Mrs. Lowe, I'm so sorry. I've never met you before.""It's alright," Ivy said. "Can I go up and see Mr. Lowe now?""Of course. I can take you."Ivy shook her head politely. "No need. Go ahead and work. I'll find him myself."With that, Ivy lifted the thermal container and stepped into the elevator. She soon reached the 16th floor, where the executive offices were located. Nathan's office was there as well.Walking across the carpet, she reached the double doors to the CEO's office.She straightened her outfit, put on her sweetest smile, and pushed the door open, chirping, "Honey, look what I brought you! A special homemade lunch."She even used a soft, cute voice on purpose. She knew men loved that.But the next second, she froze completely.She had imagined all kinds of reactions from Nathan. What she didn't imagine was that his office would be full of people.

    Early the next morning, Ivy opened her eyes and realized she was in bed.She sat up. She remembered working late last night and falling asleep right on the desk. How did she wake up in bed?There was only one explanation: Nathan must have carried her upstairs.The spot beside her was already empty. He had probably gone to the office.Ivy grabbed her phone. The moment she checked the time, her eyes widened. It was already eight.She had slept in!Normally, she woke up a little after six and went for a morning run. She would then grab a coffee and breakfast, then start work.But today, she had slept straight through until eight.What was happening to her? Was she starting to get unusually sleepy?Her phone rang just then. Madge was calling.Ivy answered. "Hey.""Ms. Ivy, why aren't you at the studio yet? This isn't like you. Come on, tell me, did you and Mr. Lowe stay up too late having fun last night?" Madge teased.Ivy paused. Nothing had happened last night, and Nathan was
