All Chapters of Marrying Without You: Chapter 281 - Chapter 290

"Throwing yourself at me now, girl?"The familiar voice and face made Rosalyn tighten her grip on the documents.It was Ben!Out of all people, she had run into him on her very first day at work.He had actually purposely gone there because of the news. He was here to take revenge, as he had gone to prison because of her, and Eric had beaten him badly. Rosalyn wasn't one who looked for trouble, but she was not afraid of it either. She straightened her back and said, "We are at the office now. I would not mind at all if you would like Mr. Zahn to personally brief you on the company policies."Ben grinned darkly and extended his hand with mock enthusiasm. "I'm just joking. Welcome to Zahn Group."Rosalyn did not take his hand. Physical contact with someone like him made her sick. Still, she politely replied, "Thank you."Ben pulled back his hand, which had been left hanging, and said, "Looking forward to working together."Rosalyn said nothing more before she brushed past him a

Eric didn't answer Rosalyn's question. Instead, he carefully pulled out a photograph from a hidden compartment in his wallet.In the photo, Rosalyn stood on the podium with her hair in a loose ponytail, and the bear hair tie was slipping slightly."I had picked it up and kept it all this time." As he spoke, his thumb gently brushed over her smiling face in the photo. Rosalyn's heart began to pound violently.She suddenly realized that Eric might have known and noticed her much earlier than she had imagined."W-why?" She could hear her own voice tremble.Eric looked at her intensely, his eyes full of affection that nearly drowned her. "What do you think?"Then, his warm breath brushed against the side of her neck, making her whole body stiffen. "Let go of me first, Eric! Say what you need to say, and keep your hands to yourself." "No way." He pushed his luck, pulling her closer into his arms, and mumbled, "I'll let go if you promise to have a late-night snack with me. I've bee

At a quarter past three in the morning, moonlight streamed through the shattered windows of an abandoned factory on the outskirts of Cromwell, filling the air with the sharp smell of rust and machine oil. In a corner, several rats scattered in panic as the lights suddenly flickered on.When the third bucket of icy water was dumped over him, Matthew woke up to find a thin layer of frost on his eyelashes.He struggled to open his eyes, and the first thing he saw was the tip of a polished leather shoe, gleaming coldly in the moonlight."Awake, are we?" A low voice came from above.Matthew slowly lifted his head, his eyes following the line of the sharply pressed suit pants upward. Eric looked down at him coldly, half of his chiseled face hidden in the moonlight. The fact that he had managed to drag Matthew out of prison was proof enough of how terrifying he was."It's such an honor to be invited by you at this hour, Mr. Hammond," Matthew said, licking his cracked lips and tasting b

The temperature inside the car seemed to drop in an instant."You've been spoiled rotten." Eric finally spoke, his voice low and deadly.Sue rolled her eyes. "Cut it out. Ever since we were kids, you've always given me anything that I wanted. And now, just because of some woman—"The car braked sharply, and Sue nearly slammed her forehead into the seat in front of her.The golden gates of Platinum Club were right ahead, and Sean was already waiting at the entrance. He was taken aback when he saw the Hammond siblings step out of the car."Eric?" He hurried over. "Why did you bring Sue too?"Eric was strongly against his younger sister coming to a place like this, even if it was his club and nothing dangerous would happen.He grabbed Sue and dragged her inside without a word."Sean!" Sue struggled and shouted. "Eric has lost his mind. Help me!"Sean rubbed his nose awkwardly and followed after them.The elevator went straight up to the top floor VIP area. Two bodyguards stood

When Sue stormed out of the club, she twisted her ankle on the marble steps and nearly fell. The night breeze unraveled her carefully styled curls, and her makeup was ruined. She barely managed to steady herself as tears blurred her vision. "I hate you, Eric!" she screamed at the entrance of the club with a hoarse and broken voice.Several passersby turned to look, and Sue shot them a vicious glare. "What are you staring at? Have you never seen a beautiful woman cry?"She stumbled forward without looking and crashed into a soft body around the corner.They both cried out in surprise. Sue fell hard to the ground, and her knee burned with pain."Watch where you're going, you—" She was about to lash out when she met a pair of concerned eyes."Are you okay?" The other person reached out with a gentle voice. It was only then did Sue realize that it was a stylish and graceful young woman in a beige trench coat. "Mind your own business!" Sue slapped her hand away and tried to p
