Divorced, Dazzling, and Desired のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 761 - チャプター 770

Jasper pointed at one of the bedrooms. "Aren't you tired? Go get some rest. This apartment belongs to Alison, and you used to sleep in that room. It's been untouched and kept the way it was, and Alison would clean it every couple of weeks."Renee stood up. "Sure. Let me take a look."She went with Jasper to the second bedroom from the left.As Jasper opened the door, she found that the huge room was clean and tidy, and the lighting was good with the glass wall.The elegant taupe theme inside also gave the sense that it had aged beautifully.A photo frame sat on the bedside shelf, and on it were a photo of Renee and Alison together, with Alison hugging her neck and resting her chin on her right shoulder.Both of them were making peace signs in the photo and looked ever so youthful and exuberant.Renee picked it up, looked at it, and suddenly giggled."You remember?" Jasper couldn't help asking after seeing the happiness on her smile.Renee brushed her fingers against the glass

Renee was still holding her phone as she reclined against her couch, her empty eyes staring dead ahead, utterly worried.She had already told Willian where Ario could be, but Tom had taken Ario away before Willian arrived.So where was Ario?Knock, knock.Renee was worried sick when Jasper knocked on her door, and she gathered her thoughts before answering the door."Mr. Zeller," she greeted him."Can you call me Jasper… or just Jas?" Jasper asked.He really wasn't used to such a formal address.After all, 'Mr. Zeller' sounded like he was a complete stranger—how would he ever overcome such distance between them?Still, Renee wasn't up for using pet names just yet."I'll just go with Jasper," she replied, and brought the conversation back on track. "Has Tom arrived in Harborview City?""Yes," Jasper replied honestly. "But don't worry—nothing will happen with me around.""Yeah, I know."Seeing Renee nodded, Jasper chuckled self-deprecatingly as he remembered, "Wait, you're P

Stepping out, Jasper closed the door tactfully but told Luke, "Call everyone up. Maintain a tight perimeter around the building.""Yes, sir. Right away." Luke promptly hurried off to a corner and made the calls.Jasper, clearly still worried that what had happened before would happen again, was especially prudent.He whipped out his phone and accessed the cameras around the room, watching constantly. Fred stood nearby, watching them in bewilderment.He was only Tom's assistant and didn't speak a lick of Hyperion, so he had no idea what Jasper and the others were saying.But judging from their expressions, they must be scheming something…-In the apartment, Tom looked around, raising his brow in disdain at the cameras.Sitting on the couch with one hand on his knee and the other resting nonchalantly on his armrest, he asked, "Do you enjoy Jasper's goodies that much? Tell me, darling—how far have you gone with him?"Eventually, seeing as she stayed silent, he asked, "Do you…

Renee's lashes fluttered, her thoughts a mess.However, she knew one thing: she couldn't afford to break in front of Tom.Sighing under her breath, she looked up at Tom and smiled in composure. "You make it sound easy and actually possible. But if you can sic your family after Ambroiss's foreign exchange, why didn't you do it already, and you instead use me as a hostage? "Your family's wealth and estate are distributed across the globe, but all of that was earned bit by bit. Sure, you can go all-in with that to make this gambit and win… but if you lose, you lose everyone's trust and everything else. "With the possibility of losing a huge chunk of their wealth and influence, would you think your family is ready to take that risk with you? And what would your partners think?"Glancing at the cigarette box on the table, she took one out with her slender fingers, lighting it up and taking a deep puff.While she looked calm, she was really panicking.Tom was still a huge deal in hi

Worried, Jasper held her hands and nodded. "It doesn't matter what you want. You will always have my support!"In this life, he had never yearned for much.Or perhaps his successful career simply went so smoothly that he didn't care.But Renee, the woman he had loved for almost ten years now, became an obsession as she always seemed beyond reach.Renee sighed. "I just wanted to say, we—"Jasper's phone rang, cutting her off."Sorry, I need to take this," Jasper said, seeing that it was from Jormund.Too much had happened, and he was now in a direct confrontation against Tom, so he might already have made a move.Walking to the balcony and closing the sliding door, he finally answered. "What?""Where have you been?!" His father, Will Zeller, bellowed on the other end. "The company is a mess, and you're still not back yet!""Alison is heading back already," Jasper retorted. "Whatever it is, she can handle it."He definitely had no intention of worrying about work and just want
