Semua Bab Love in Twilight: Bab 1071 - Bab 1080

For the entire night, Neil was no better than a proud peacock showing off its feathers to the flock. Flaunting his dance moves and flirting around with women, he seemed to be telling the public that he was finally free from the shackles of marriage. He acted as if the welcoming banquet was held just for him rather than Jonah. Isaac, on the other hand, shot a hateful glare at Neil while sipping on a glass of wine. At first, he thought that victory was his tonight, but it was obvious that he had suffered a losing battle. Meanwhile, Michelle sat in a corner in silence.Jonah stood at the side of the hall, chatting with Owen and Amber.“Jonah, what’s your plan from now on? Michelle’s not bound by marriage anymore. If you want to pursue her, there’s nothing wrong with that.” At first, Amber thought Michelle was better off with Neil. However, her perspective had taken a drastic turn the moment she found out about Neil’s affair with Ariana. One look at Neil and you’d know he was bad news. J

Neil then made a call to his driver and asked the latter to send him home.Meanwhile, he wondered, ‘What kind of pendant did Jonah give Michelle just now? Is it something very expensive?’The next day, the manager of L&J called Calvin and told him that the launch of the new product was a success. Thus, he thought of organizing an exhibition outstation with the same fashion theme.At first, Calvin thought about settling the matter by himself. When it struck him that Michelle was the one who designed the exhibition hall for the last event, he called Neil immediately. Calvin would inform Neil about everything that concerned Michelle.When Calvin arrived at Neil’s office, the latter was signing some documents. “Yes?”“The manager of L&J wishes to organize an exhibition outstation. Since Michelle was the one in charge of designing the venue, how should I proceed with this matter?” Calvin asked.“You don’t have to consult me for something as small as this. You can decide however you wa

The moment Michelle and Jonah arrived at the entrance, they spotted Neil’s car parked at the roadside.Neil shot a glare at Jonah. Then, he turned away and demanded to Michelle, “Get in the car right now!”Michelle bid goodbye to Jonah and got into Neil’s car. Before leaving, the two looked into each other’s eyes, reluctant to let each other go.Neil was incensed. ‘How dare they flirt in front of me!’“Are you dating Jonah?” Neil demanded.Michelle thought about his question and nodded. “Yes, I am.”“Wow! You got into a relationship right after our divorce! That’s fast,” Neil spat sarcastically.“Yeah,” Michelle replied vaguely. She didn’t dare to say anything provoking to Neil, for fear of triggering his uncontrolled emotions and reminding him of sad memories. She was so worried about his outbursts, she couldn’t even breathe properly.Soon, Neil stopped his car by the river. Neil got out of the car, leaned against the railing, and smoked a cigarette.Michelle got out of the c

Neil took the bag from her and looked inside. Instantly, the scent of detergent wafted into his nostrils. It was refreshing and smelled great—as if he’d come home to see someone waiting for him. It made him feel secure.He even saw one of his underwear buried somewhere, which was folded the way Michelle normally did. He didn’t know when he had left this here, but it was probably from a time when he’d suddenly gotten the urge to get down and dirty. It was probably flung somewhere, so he had put on a new one when he couldn’t find it.“How many of my underwear are there?” he asked.Michelle thought, ‘How improper of him. Why’s he asking about his underwear, of all things?’“Don’t worry; I don’t have that sort of fetish.” She was quite annoyed. “I’m not going to keep any of your things without your knowledge.”“What sort of fetish? Did I say anything? What were you thinking?” Neil’s lips suddenly curved upward. “A fetish for sniffing underwear? I’ve never thought that of you.”“You!”

Calvin smiled after hanging up.He knew Isaac had always wanted to have a showdown with Neil, but was too petty and stingy to actually win anything. If Calvin had straight up told him he intended to reserve the Pinehill Grand Hotel, Isaac would’ve done his best to convince Calvin to go for something cheaper. The money aside, Isaac just wanted to go against Neil’s wishes. This time, however, Calvin did the opposite—he had brought up the four-star hotel first, and as expected, it had pushed Isaac into wanting the five-star hotel. And so, Calvin happily accepted Isaac’s request. He had his subordinate arrange for Jonah to stay in room 1038, which is opposite Michelle’s 1028.He didn’t feel bad about doing this at all—the only person they would get mad at for this was Neil, so there was nothing for him to feel guilty about.When this was done, he told Neil about it.“That was pretty quick! I’ll give you a large bonus at the end of the year,” Neil said.“I did all of this in your nam
