Chapter 81

Julian dragged me away so quickly that all I could hear was Dolly’s furious shouting fading into the distance.He drove fast, too fast.Without a seatbelt, I was tossed around in the back seat, forced to clutch the back of the passenger seat just to stay upright.My eyes burned red in fury. "Julian, are you insane?! I’m calling the police!"His expression was dark, his grip on the steering wheel tight. His gaze stayed locked on the road, cold and sharp."Go ahead," he said, voice laced with mockery. "Tell them your lawful husband took you home. See if they care."I reached for my purse, but before I could grab it, he slammed the brakes.My head whipped forward, crashing into the seat in front of me.A sharp pain exploded in my skull, and for a moment, my vision went black.I struggled to keep my eyes open, but my body betrayed me, succumbing to the dizziness.As the darkness swallowed me, I instinctively reached for my phone, only to come up empty.Then everything faded.…When I woke

Chapter 82

Tears welled up, slowly filling my eyes before spilling over, one by one, tracing cold paths down my cheeks.Julian took my hand, his grip firm yet coaxing. "Eve, stop being stubborn. Over the past five years, how many times have you threatened divorce? “And in the end, haven’t we always been fine? I’m not divorcing you. No matter what, I never will."I yanked my hand away and asked coldly, "Fine. Then leave Chloe. Never see her again. Not once in your entire life."His expression froze.I let out a sharp, mocking laugh. "What’s wrong? Can’t do it? If you can’t, then don’t talk to me about love. Julian, you disgust me."Strangely, after I said that, his expression softened instead of darkening."Eve, Chloe and I grew up together. We’ve known each other since childhood. You can’t expect me to just cut her off completely. Even if we’re only friends, I will see her again."I scoffed. "Right. So, you publicly flirt with her. You gave her that pink diamond she’s been dreaming about. You l

Chapter 83

Julian hadn't expected me to hit him.He clutched his face, staring at me in disbelief.I let out a sharp, mocking laugh. "Talk? About what? Whether I get to be with you on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays while Chloe takes Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays? "Or should we talk about how much of the hundred million dollars I gave you five years ago you're feeling generous enough to return? Ten million? Twenty?"Julian, there’s nothing left for us to talk about. And I don’t want to talk to you."I shoved him aside and turned to leave, but before I could take a step, his arms snapped around my waist—tight, unyielding.In the next second, I was lifted off the ground.Panic shot through me, and I screamed, "Let me go!"Julian said nothing, hauling me back into the bedroom like I weighed nothing.The door slammed shut. The lock clicked.Before I could fully process what was happening, he threw me onto the bed.I bounced against the mattress, momentarily stunned, my head spinning.Just as

Chapter 84

"I just want to find my brother!""I saw him, I really saw him. It was him... It was my brother..." I broke down, sobbing uncontrollably. "Please, just let me go. I need to find him... I have to find my brother..."A strong, warm embrace pulled me in, shielding me like I was something rare and precious.I caught the familiar scent of pine and cypress, mixed with something unfamiliar yet deeply stirring—a clean, crisp fragrance that only belonged to him.A scent I had only ever known on my brother.A gentle voice coaxed, "Don’t cry, don’t cry. Be good, Eve. You saw him, you did. It was your brother. You weren’t mistaken."My sobs grew louder, but he didn’t let me struggle free.Holding me firmly, he kept me pinned to the bed."Calm down. The doctor said you hit your head again. You can’t afford to get worked up."There was an unmistakable command in Miles’ tone.Gradually, my breathing steadied.He still held me, his upper body pressing me lightly into the mattress.After a long silen

Chapter 85

I lowered my head, absentmindedly picking at my nails.Seeing my dejected look, Dolly grew anxious. "Hey, don’t be like this! You didn’t see how crazy your brother went when he found out Julian took you. “If you’d handed him a knife, he wouldn’t have hesitated to chop that scumbag into mincemeat."That thought lifted my spirits a little.Dolly then asked, "So, what’s your next move?"I lifted my head, my voice firm. "Recover, get a lawyer, and file for divorce!"...Recovering wasn’t difficult since most of my injuries were superficial. But because I had hit the back of my head when I fell from the second floor, Joseph wasn’t willing to discharge me so easily.I had to stay in the hospital for monitoring, a full-body check-up, and further observation.When Joseph saw me wrapped up like a mummy, he let out a deep sigh.I forced a smile. "Dr. Watson, sorry to trouble you again."He adjusted his gloves and replied flatly, "It’s no trouble."His indifferent tone made me uneasy.I had cau

His gaze was sincere. "Personally, I believe this is the best punishment for an abuser." The female lawyer immediately agreed. "Yes! Evelyn, we will do everything in our power to help you." I slowly nodded, a newfound determination lighting up my eyes. "Alright!" …Julian walked out of the police station, his face still bearing the marks of his injuries. The moment Chloe saw him, she rushed over. Tears filled her eyes as she threw her arms around him. "Julian, you suffered so much in there." She immediately began complaining, rambling about how heartless the police were, how they wouldn’t budge no matter what connections she tried to pull. She said apologetically, "Julian, I tried everything, but they said... they said you were suspected of unlawful imprisonment and attempted sexual assault, so they had to investigate thoroughly." As soon as she finished speaking, she realized Julian hadn’t responded. He simply got into the car without a word. Sitting in the backseat

Chapter 87

After the check-up, my forehead had healed, leaving only a faint scar. I stood in front of the mirror, staring at the worn-out woman reflected back at me. The bright, youthful face I once had at eighteen was nothing more than a fading memory. I had come to accept the woman I was now. But the ache in my chest remained. Seven years of my youth, seven years of love and devotion, and this was what I got in return. I wiped away the condensation on the mirror with force, then picked up my makeup brush and carefully began applying it. I refused to be a laughingstock. No one—absolutely no one—was going to look down on me, Evelyn White. So, when I appeared before my lawyer, James Howe, I was refreshed, composed, and radiant. My bangs covered the scar on my forehead, and for the first time in a long while, I felt a spark of life return to me. Dolly’s eyes lit up the moment she saw me. "Eve!" I gave a wry smile. "Do I look alright?" Dolly’s face was full of awe. "Alright?

Chapter 88

A milk carton was suddenly handed to me from behind. I shook my head. "I don’t want it. I feel awful."A moment later, a warm towel was placed in front of me.With no choice, I took it and absentmindedly draped it over my forehead.The soothing warmth eased my tense nerves, and I finally let out a long sigh."Dolly, thank you," I murmured. "If you weren’t here with me, I would’ve broken down by now. I swear, from now on, you’re my closest family. How was I ever so blind to fall for him?"I scoffed, my voice dropping. "Do you think even the heavens couldn’t stand it anymore and gave me amnesia on purpose?""Maybe this is the heavens giving you a chance to start over," a cool voice replied from behind me.I stiffened in shock, and as I instinctively turned my head.Crack!A sharp pain shot through my neck.I winced, trembling slightly as I peeled the towel off my face and turned toward Miles, my expression both pained and embarrassed."You… How long have you been standing there?"Miles

Chapter 89

Miles didn’t say anything and continued massaging my neck. I had to admit that his technique was really good. With just a few presses, the tightness in my muscles eased considerably. Lowering my voice, I murmured, "You don’t have to keep going. It’s fine now." But I had spoken too softly, and he didn’t hear me. He kept pressing, slow and focused, as if making sure every knot was worked out. I found myself staring at our shadows on the wall. His side profile was stunning. The sunlight cast a glow on his features, outlining his silhouette like a perfect sketch against the wall. Even the strands of hair that fell over his forehead had a graceful arc to them. I tilted my head slightly, and in the shadow, my forehead aligned right beneath his chin. It looked… strangely beautiful. A warmth spread through my chest, a sweetness that made me feel like I was eighteen again—young, carefree, untouched by heartbreak. For a fleeting moment, I thought that if only Miles had bee

He asked, "What did you say?" Clearing my throat, my face burning, I mumbled, "I mean… it’s not exactly… forbidden… Can we… hold hands?" Miles visibly froze for a moment before a slow smile spread across his lips. I stole a glance at him and muttered, "We… we already kissed just now…" This time, he heard me loud and clear. After a brief pause, he said slowly, "That’s true. We’ve already kissed… Acting reserved now would be a bit hypocritical, wouldn’t it?" My face turned even redder. "That’s not what I meant—" Before I could finish, he suddenly pulled me in and kissed me again. This time, my mind wasn’t as much of a blur. I began to respond slowly and clumsily. Something about that must have ignited something in Miles, because I could feel the heat radiating from him, his body pressing closer, his embrace tightening. Sensing danger, I quickly gathered the last bit of my rationality and pushed him away. We separated, catching our breaths, both trying to calm down.
