Lahat ng Kabanata ng Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO: Kabanata 421 - Kabanata 430

Carol couldn’t help but roll her eyes. Honestly, not rushing into marriage might be for the best. As far as she could tell, Tessa was no pushover—definitely not an easy one to manage.If she really did marry in, who knew how much drama she’d bring into this house?Carol was getting older. She didn’t have the patience or the energy for that kind of chaos.But the moment Albert heard her say that, his temper flared.“What’s that supposed to mean? Is he my son alone now?”Carol widened her eyes. “Don’t twist my words. That’s not what I said, you’re the one who keeps putting words in my mouth.”Albert was practically pacing by now, his frustration boiling over. “You think I pushed this marriage for fun? I’m doing this for our family!“Do you have any idea how bad things are with the company right now?“At this rate, when the business folds, who’s going to play host with your friends? Who’ll play poker with your social circle, huh? You’re living in comfort and don’t even realize it.”With

Julian walked step by step toward the basement, a dark, unreadable smile on his face.The woman inside had been dazed and lifeless, but the moment she saw Julian, her eyes snapped into focus. The chains binding her clanked sharply as she stirred. Her mouth had been stuffed with a cloth, completely silencing her, only her eyes could move. Her body was barely covered by a couple of scraps of fabric, nothing else.At the sight, the desire in Julian’s eyes nearly overflowed, especially when he saw her barely clothed, as if she had been waiting there just for him.Her body was marked with bruises, blue and purple. Her gaze had once been void of emotion, but now, facing Julian, hatred burned in her eyes.Julian let out a cold laugh and gripped her chin tightly. "What? Can’t stand the sight of me?""Why are you looking at me like that?"The woman had a striking, radiant beauty, and if one looked closely, she bore a certain resemblance to Aurora. Not only that, she carried the same kind o

But as time went on, Judy began to realize that kind of life wasn’t sustainable either—it was far too aimless and empty.So, she signed up for both a dance class and a finance course, keeping herself busy and fulfilled every day.As for Joseph, it wasn’t that he didn’t want to see her; he genuinely couldn’t find the time.Melvin watched over him like a prison warden, tracking his every move, leaving him with virtually no freedom.By now, Joseph was starting to hate the idea of going back to that so-called home. The place reeked of schemes and manipulation.To Melvin, his son’s happiness meant absolutely nothing if it didn’t serve a purpose.It was this realization that made Joseph even more certain—he wanted to be with Judy.Others only wanted him for his wealth, but Judy was different.All these years, she had stayed by his side with sincerity, hard work, and zero selfish motives.And yet, simply because of her background, his parents had never approved of her.Still, the two of them

After all, he had no identity or standing.Once he figured that out, a trace of desolation flickered in Leonard's eyes.He parted his lips but ended up saying nothing."I understand."With his gaze lowered, Leonard no longer looked anything like the carefree man he was before.He had come to a clear realization. It was inappropriate for him to be here now.Not just because of his identity, but because of where he stood.If he really wanted to visit Grace, he could only come along when the staff were free.Other than that, he was nothing.Leonard set everything down and gestured to Lucas to bring them along later."You're right. I'll leave for now. If there's a chance, I’ll come by to visit Madam Grace."Lucas said nothing but gave a slight nod.That was enough. He would bring the items over and pass on the message.In the end, Leonard turned and left.He thought—surely, he’d have a chance someday.He was hopeful.Under the sunlight, Leonard's figure looked a little lonely.But Lucas f

Mom was right. If he kept forcing himself, wasn’t he just trapping himself in a corner?It would be a waste of time and utterly meaningless.Once Leonard came to that realization, a genuine smile slowly returned to his face."Mom, I understand now. I’ll work through it. I won’t keep doing this to myself."Jasmine looked at the smile on his face, unsure how much of it was real.But right now, she chose to believe every word he said.After all, he was no longer a child. He needed to have his own thoughts and make his own choices.If he could come to terms with it on his own and eventually walk out of it, that too would be a kind of healing."Alright. No matter what decision you make, your dad and I will always support you. We’re behind you, always.""Thanks, Mom."Leonard looked deeply moved. In the end, he reached out and pulled Jasmine into a tight hug.Nora tilted her head to glance at the two of them, a slight hint of curiosity in her eyes.But before long, her attention drifted back
