บททั้งหมดของ Divorcing My Ruthless Husband : บทที่ 221 - บทที่ 230

Jacob clenched his teeth and jaw, his gaze fixed on Stefani in his peripheral vision. Although he wanted to decline without hesitation, he hesitated at the thought of upsetting Stefani by leaving with her. He sighed, feeling the weight of Emily and Frederick's anticipation for his response. Meanwhile, Stefani regained her composure and took hold of Jacob's hand, her heart heavy and her breaths labored."Aunt," she began, her voice heavy with emotion. "I want to help you, but sharing my husband with her is not only a mistake in the eyes of society but also in the eyes of God. I would consider it if we only had to convince Shaira, but asking Jacob to pretend to love her is beyond what I can accept."Emily grew anxious, fearing that Stefani would back out despite her apparent willingness. "But it's just an act, Stef—"Stefani cut her off, her tone sharp. "That doesn't give you the right to disrespect me! How could you make such a request knowing that I am his wife? I thought you would su

The night sky was engulfed in darkness as the towering skyscrapers illuminated the city. Stefani and Jacob reached their destination without any issues, yet Stefani couldn't shake off her unease. It felt as though someone was observing them, despite her attempts to dismiss these concerns.Upon entering the room, Jacob inquired, "Are you okay?"Stefani halted in front of the wide-open door, surveying her surroundings with cautious eyes. She contemplated speaking up but ultimately decided that her worries were trivial. She closed her mouth, shook her head, and replied, "It's nothing."As Stefani sat on the bed and observed Jacob's stance, she couldn't help but ponder a question that had been weighing heavily on her mind. "Jacob… is it possible for someone to forget someone they truly love? And if so, can't the heart recognize who it truly… loves?"Jacob stood frozen, slowly turning his head to face Stefani, who appeared distant and lost. He responded, "Certainly, the heart and mind can

Jacob and Stefani spent the entire day exploring various tourist attractions. They had a great time until it was time for the meeting. "I'll drop you off at the hotel first so you can rest," Jacob said, holding the shopping bags they had accumulated throughout the day. "Okay," Stefani replied, feeling a bit disappointed. As she got into the car, she couldn't help but sulk. She didn't like the idea of Jacob and Shaira being in the same space or room, even though she knew there would be someone else with them. It made her feel anxious and a little angry. Throughout the entire journey, Jacob observed Stefani's changing mood. When they arrived back in front of the hotel, Stefani didn't move from her seat. Instead, she turned her head towards the window, gazing at the city lights and the bustling crowd. "Let's go. I'll take you to your room," Jacob suggested, preparing to unbuckle his seatbelt. "No," Stefani responded firmly, leaving Jacob confused. "You said you were tired. We're ba

Jacob gazed at Stefani, who was devouring the mango he had purchased, without pause. A smile graced his lips as he admired her. When Stefani noticed his gaze, annoyance washed over her."Why are you staring at me like that? It's so creepy!" she blurted out without thinking.Jacob's mouth dropped open in response to her words, but she paid no attention and continued eating. Jacob hoped she would retract her statement, but she simply ignored him as if he were invisible."Hey..." he called out softly."What?" she responded, annoyance evident in her tone. When she realized the mangoes were already gone, she looked at him coldly. "Look! The mangoes are gone because of you!""What? Why are you blaming me?" Jacob was completely taken aback. "I... I didn't even touch them because I bought them just for you."Stefani glanced at him indifferently, washed her hands, and didn't bother replying. She simply returned to bed. However, before closing her eyes, she turned to him and glared. "Don't slee

On a scorching hot day, everyone was enjoying themselves at the beach while Stefani quietly observed from afar. She wanted to swim and dive in to cool off, but even just standing up made her dizzy. She let out a deep sigh and glanced at Jacob. "I told you, you can go swimming. I'll just watch you and enjoy." She felt guilty that Jacob couldn't swim and have fun because he was watching over her. Jacob looked at her and smiled, gently rubbing her stomach. "I don't want to swim. I only invited you here because I knew you would enjoy the beach, and since you can't swim, I'd rather just keep an eye on you." Stefani looked at Jacob's hand massaging her stomach and couldn't help but close her eyes, feeling the comfort wash over her. Unbeknownst to her, she fell asleep and just woke up in bed. As she looked around, she realized it was already night. When she tried to find Jacob with her eyes, she couldn't locate him. She slowly stood up, about to go out and look for him, but her eyes were
