Lahat ng Kabanata ng Second Marriage to the Billionaire: Ex-Husband Begs Me Not to Go: Kabanata 121 - Kabanata 130

The family estate had a live-in housekeeper, and even a specially hired chef who had taken care of his grandparents for decades.Archer had previously lived at the family estate. When he went abroad to study, Marianne was so concerned that she sent a chef with him just to look after his diet.However, since returning to the country, Archer had lived alone, generally eating out. Only when he wasn't busy would he occasionally feel like cooking for himself. He didn't really like having outsiders invade his personal space.Evidently, Aria seemed to feel the same way.Archer understood Aria's implied meaning and responded, "I don't want you to be too tired.""Doing it occasionally won't be tiring," Aria replied. She had just been passing by the supermarket and thought to buy some things to take home, while also wanting to ask about Archer's food preferences.Archer's voice still carried a faint trace of amusement, "Alright.""Are there any foods you don't like or avoid?" Aria asked.

The bagel mix were bought from the supermarket. Although ready-made bagels were available, she felt that homemade ones would taste better and fresher."Do you need help?" Archer casually asked.Aria thought for a moment, "Could you peel the shrimp, Archer? Just remember to remove the vein."He had peeled cooked shrimp before, but never raw ones.Actually, Archer did know how to cook, but he didn't enjoy preparing seafood, especially shrimp, which he found troublesome.But since Aria had asked, he would do it.The raw shrimp felt slippery in his hands. He made a slight sound of disapproval as he picked up one and began peeling. The sharp edge of the shrimp's head cut a small nick in his finger.It stung a bit, but was tolerable.His little wife had only given him this one task of peeling shrimp. He couldn't possibly fail at even this.After peeling a small bowl of shrimp, his hands had four or five small cuts. He felt slightly indignant that these hands—which normally signed co

Sure enough, Marianne was so delighted she didn't even care about all the wrinkles showing on her face. "Soon, soon! We'll send you all wedding invitations when the time comes!"While they were chatting animatedly, Grandpa Duncan was completely absorbed in his chess game, so focused that he barely heard Marianne's words.Marianne glanced over, decided not to disturb him, and said, "Well, we'll be going now!"Watching Marianne lead Aria away and stop in front of a group of dancing friends, chatting with a radiant expression, David and Steven exchanged puzzled looks. Wasn't she here to call Old Duncan home for dinner?How could she leave without saying a single word to him?Meanwhile, Marianne pulled Aria over to the square dancing group. Because Marianne was highly respected here, these ladies stopped practicing as soon as she arrived."Mrs. Duncan, what brings you here?" they asked."Hehe, my granddaughter-in-law heard I love dancing, so she came with me to see," Marianne said c

Archer let out a vague "hmm" and replied, "I'm nothing compared to you, who posts on social media just to announce you woke up at three in the afternoon, or writes a song about dreaming you turned into a lazy sheep being chased by a big bad wolf."Anson: "..."Aria: "?"Aria didn't usually follow celebrity gossip. Hearing Archer say this, she couldn't help but widen her eyes. Was Anson really this bizarre?"That's completely different! I'm a celebrity, and celebrities need to stay active online!" Anson's face reddened."Active enough that everyone knows you're still watching children's cartoons?"Enough already, couldn't they move past this?Anson protested loudly, "We're different! At least I'm not showing off that I got married and have a wife.""That's because you don't have one," Archer replied coldly, his arrow hitting Anson right in the heart."Young male actors aren't allowed to date!" Anson exclaimed in frustration.Archer made another noncommittal sound, then turned

"Are you referring to how Professor Claire's invitation letter was carelessly discarded by him, leading me to believe I hadn't passed Claire's test, and forcing me to remain in the Spencer house as the so-called 'Spencer family daughter-in-law'?"Professor Claire was a famous international design genius. Back then, Aria had taken his test but never received an invitation notice, assuming her skills weren't good enough. With Larry constantly criticizing her work, she had given up hope. It wasn't until a year later that she found the long-expired international letter hidden in a compartment of her closet. All the messages from Claire's assistant in her email had been deleted by Larry.He had destroyed her dream, clipped her wings, and trapped her in the Spencer house to be his "well-behaved" Spencer family wife.Even Susan had heard of Professor Claire's name. She was momentarily speechless, completely unaware of this incident.She looked dazedly at Larry and asked in a low voice, "D
