Chapter 199

Penulis: Lightmoon
"They're deluding themselves! What's that got to do with me?" Zachary defended himself.

"You're always like this! If Lucian does something wrong, it's fake or it's a rumor. Why don't you ever believe anything I say?"

Paul raised his voice too. "If you didn't give them the wrong idea, why would they misunderstand? And it's not just one misunderstanding—it's over ten!"

"Can I control what others are deluding themselves about?"

The father and son continued to go back and forth in this manner, with Viola occasionally trying to mediate. They argued all the way home.

Back at their own villa, Zachary stormed upstairs with a dark expression. The sound of his door slamming echoed down to the first floor.

…

Zachary lay on his bed, still fuming. He strode over to his computer desk and opened his Instagram page, skillfully clicking on his only special follow.

It was the Instagram account of a comic artist called "Dreamy". This comic artist had created a personal account just a few years ag

  • Turning Heads After Divorce   Chapter 356

    In the city hospital, the doctor cleaned and dressed the wound on Marisol's right hand. After giving her a few instructions, he exited the ward. Marisol and Andre remained in the ward. Silence settled between them.Andre sat with his head bowed, and his faint sobs were barely audible. Yet Marisol felt no desire to comfort him. Her emotions were a tangled mess, jumbled, and laced with fear. Back at the restaurant, the moment Andre hurled that plate toward her, there had been a split second when she thought she saw Lucian in him. The resemblance was terrifying. They bore the same self-centeredness and reckless impulsiveness. After a long pause, Marisol finally spoke. She kept her tone calm as she asked, "Andre, do you understand what you did? If that plate had hit Orion in the head, do you realize what could've happened?" "But he started it! Why was he calling you 'Mommy'?" Andre shot back, looking up with reddened eyes. "Or do you really have another kid out there?" "No, he

    Andre frowned and remarked, "But you and Dad never fought. You didn't even yell at each other." Marisol wanted to explain that it wasn't some marital slump, but pure hatred. Yet, she had no clue how to explain that to a seven-year-old.After all, children shouldn't carry the weight of adult resentments. That kind of burden would only breed fear and leave emotional scars. Just as she was struggling to find the right words, a small figure came barreling toward them. A crisp and bright voice rang out. "Mommy!" In an instant, a child was in Marisol's arms. Before she could process this, Andre erupted in anger. His face turned red as he yelled, "Who are you?"He yanked at the child clinging to Marisol's waist. "Let go! That's my mom! Mine!"The little boy clung tighter, refusing to release her. He then burst into sobs at Andre's screams. "No, she's my mommy! I won't let go!" "Let go!" Andre yelled. "No!" "Let go right now!" "I won't!" The scene devolved into chaos, and

    Andre leaned closer and grabbed Marisol's hand. His eyes were bright and expectant as he inquired, "Mom, did you bring me a present from your trip? You still owe me one, remember?" Marisol knew Andre was bound to make a scene if she were to say no. "Next time," she uttered. Andre's smile vanished. He yanked Marisol's hand away and shouted, "That's what you said last time, too! It's always 'next time'. Mom, you lied again. You told me only bad kids lie. That means you're bad too!" Several nearby diners turned toward the commotion. As Andre's tears threatened to fall, Marisol suppressed a sigh and attempted gentle reasoning. But the moment she spoke, he wailed even louder. Her headache surged. Just then, from across the table, Lucian's voice rang out. "Andre."The child's cries cut off instantly. Andre shut his mouth, though tears still glistened in his eyes. The swift obedience chilled Marisol. It was always like this. Andre never listened to her. Her words held no weight

    In the evening, a gleaming orange Bentley Continental rolled to a stop outside a lavishly decorated, glittering restaurant. From it stepped a striking woman clad in a bodycon emerald velvet gown that shimmered softly under the lights. Pearl buttons fastened along the collar glowed with a gentle luster, while a white knitted shawl was draped lightly over her slender shoulders, gently veiling the curves beneath. The ensemble lent her an effortless grace with every movement. Her presence was elusive and enchanting, like a spring breeze gliding through a misty rainfall. Passersby were spellbound, yet none dared stare for long. They only stole glances from the corners of their eyes. After all, she was guarded by three hulking bodyguards in black. The vision of gentleness surrounded by menace drew attention. It wasn't until the woman stepped into the restaurant, which welcomed her with soft notes of music, that murmurs erupted among the crowd outside. "Wow, she's stunning. Is s

    The spring breeze stirred gently, but the man's soft-spoken words sent a chill deep into Marisol’s heart. She wondered what Nick was implying. "You!" Suddenly, Nick chuckled, and his expression brightened. "Don't be afraid, Sol. I'm not him. I was just making a point. Lucian won't let go unless you make him suffer to the bone." "I've already tried. It didn't work," Marisol responded. Her voice held quiet despair. She'd nearly plunged a knife into Lucian's heart, yet instead of retreating, he only descended further into madness. Sometimes she wondered if Lucian even felt pain. Maybe all madmen were like that. … "I see," Nick murmured. He lowered his gaze. The light caught his glasses and masked his expression. But his voice remained calm and gentle as always. "If that's the case, let's give it a few days. Move back to Verdant Woods, and we'll be neighbors again. Let's see how he reacts. If he's going to regret anything, it'll happen soon. I'll get you out of the cou

    "I'm sorry," Marisol whispered, her voice breaking.Nick replied, "The fault is mine. If only I'd been stronger back then—" "No," she interrupted. A sob caught in her throat. "We never should've met. Then you wouldn't have suffered, and your hands wouldn't have been—" Nick pressed his fingers to her lips, silencing her. His brows furrowed slightly, and his eyes were tinged red at the corners. With a gentle smile, he uttered, "Don't say such things, Sol. We met when we were young. My only regret is that we didn't find each other sooner. "During those seven years abroad, I kept wondering… What if I hadn't gone back to Everton with my parents? What if I'd just told you my name back then? Would things have turned out differently? But Sol, there are no what-ifs." Behind his glasses, his eyes shimmered with sorrow too deep for words. "We still have a long future ahead of us, Sol. It's never too late, isn't it?" Marisol nodded hard. Her eyes reddened. Yes. Their future stretc
