All Chapters of After the CEO's Divorce, I became his uncle's bride: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

★★★★★"This wasn't a victory, Mark, but I was not prepared for this either. Let's go and greet the Hudson with a smile like we are unbothered," Clover said in one breath and resumed her walking. Meanwhile, Mark's frown deepened further."Mr Tennyson," Clover greeted with a sweet tone, lovely enough for Joshua to raise his head. His eyes remained cold, but they looked no longer impatient like before dealing with the people around the table."Miss Clover, did you just fly here?" Mr Tennyson haughtily said as he stood up, stretching his hand for a shake, but Clover, instead of taking his hand, boldly leaned forward with her face moving to the side of Mr Tennyson's face as she left a kiss in the air, before withdrawing her face.For onlookers, it looked like she just kissed Mr Tennyson on his cheek."It's nice to see you, Mr Tennyson. And I didn't fly here, by the way. I was in the neighbourhood," Clover addressed as she noticed the disgusting greed in Tennyson's eyes, who took the greeti

★★★★★ "Excuse me!" Clover turned back, frowning. "You are telling me that I need to take your permission to leave this cafe!" "If my tone says that, then I don't see anything wrong with it," Joshua said, coming to a stop right before Clover, looking down at her with an arrogant gaze that said he owned her. "You cannot talk to me like that, Mr Hudson. You own this place not me. If you step aside kindly, I will be grateful since the time for an extended chat is no longer in my hands," Clove replied curtly, wondering at the same time what he was up to by blocking her path. "Oh I can, Miss Hasting. You plotted to get the land, one that's practically useless to you and then you showed up, proudly mentioning Tennyson's project. You make me think that living a stable life is not your actual goal, but rather you want revenge. Don't you?" His voice came low, but no anger reflected. He was not mad at Clover. "You understand me better than anyone," Clover smiled gently. She tried to provoke

★★★★★ "Since you didn't see his presence on the table, I assure you, you have no idea why he is with us this morning," Mr Hasting spoke, grabbing Clover's attention. Since the entire family decided to take things easy with Clover, he was not going to fan the intention Clover had. And for that, all of them had to ignore whatever she was doing, which was the 'provocation.' "I assume..." Clover paused, twisting her countenance as if she was remembering something. Then giving rest to her expression she added, "I did something," she raised both her shoulders, "I mean you asked me to guess the reason, so it's clear I am the one who stepped on his forbidden boundary and he came here for justice," Clover said, dropping her shoulders. "Whatever you are doing, you are doing it out of anger, Clove... Clover. Somewhere deep down you should be afraid that the consequences could be disastrous, but you are Cindy's sister, so I have come here only to talk," Kayden interrupted, locking gaze on Clov

☆★★★★"Enough!" Mr Hasting retorted coldly when he understood what his wife was hinting at, even though Clover was still unconscious in Kayden's hands. "Since the doctor is coming, Clover should get checked too.""Yeah, something seems truly wrong!" Kayden said."Take her to a room," Mr Hasting said, and Kayden nodded, but before he could pick her up to carry, Zona shouted, "Are you out of your mind? How can you ask your son-in-law to carry Clover?""It's fine, Mrs Hasting. I can carry her!" Kayden replied without getting the meaning behind Zona's words. Meanwhile, Cindy, who was writhing in pain earlier, now stared at Kayden in shock; the pain could now be felt in her heart.Her hand got burned and she had tears in her eyes, but instead of paying attention to her, Kayden was thinking of carrying Clover to the room.'How could a man remain passive to the woman he loved and was about to marry?' Her heart became heavy as her tears rolled out continuously in silence."It's not about you

★★★★"You'd better take the ring off," Kayden said to Cindy when he noticed her eyes on him, who wanted to know what she should do. "You can wear the ring anytime after your hand heals, but if this ring makes the situation worse, as the doctor said, then I wouldn't want that to happen to you."Understanding it, Cindy nodded her head, but the thing she didn't consider was to remove the ring by herself, especially when she had a good notion about the pain of touching the surface of her hand."I can't do it myself, Kay," Cindy cried, her tears welling up."Yeah, of course. How can you do this on your own?" Zona said with a light tone. "Kayden, son, please help her. I don't think I can touch her wounded hand with a calm head." As Zona pressed her hand on the side of her head, she gave the impression that she was going to faint if she saw Cindy in pain anymore.Seeing that, Clover rolled her eyes and said, "I am feeling fine now. I should take my leave.""No," came an abrupt reply from Kay
