《She Moved On and Glowed Up — Now Her Ex-Husband and Son Want Her Forgiveness》全部章節：第 281 章 - 第 290 章

Quinton watched the entire rescue from the corner of the factory, frozen in shock. Only when Eric and Travis rushed over and untied him, pulling the tape from his mouth, did the reality hit him.He let out a wail and threw himself into Travis’s arms. “Daddy, I was so scared.”Travis held him tightly, his voice thick. “It’s over now, buddy. Daddy’s here. You’re safe.”Eric, standing beside them, finally exhaled in relief. Outside, the police were already handcuffing the kidnappers and taking them to the patrol cars.Just then, Nora ran from the other vehicle, her face streaked with tears. Quinton looked up from his father’s shoulder and saw her. “Mom.”She dropped to her knees and wrapped him in her arms, sobbing so hard she could barely breathe. “My baby, you’re okay. Thank God, you’re okay. I was so scared.” She kept running her trembling hands over his back and arms, checking for injuries.Travis and Eric stood nearby, silent, their expressions heavy with emotion.Suddenly, th

Eric frowned slightly. “Travis, I’m not trying to meddle in your family matters. But right now, Quinton is still lying in that bed. He needs peace and quiet to recover. Can’t you see that?”Travis let out a sharp laugh. “Of course I can. But all of this started because of Nora’s carelessness. She’s his mother. If she can’t even look after her own child, she deserves to be called out. And you… What right do you have to tell me what to do?”Nora’s heart sank at his words. She lifted her gaze, her eyes filled with disappointment and hurt. “Travis, is that really how you see me? After everything we’ve been through, do you think so little of me?”Eric took a deep breath, trying to keep his tone calm. “Travis, I understand you’re angry and worried, but blaming her won’t solve anything. What matters now is helping Quinton recover. Nora’s been through a lot lately. She didn’t want this to happen.”Travis refused to listen. “Through a lot? Who hasn’t? That’s no excuse for neglecting her chi

“It’s none of your business where I’m going,” Nora said coldly. “You don’t get to control me.”Travis felt anger flare in his chest, rising like a storm he couldn’t contain. His tone turned sharp and cutting.“No wonder you can’t even take care of Quinton. You call yourself a mother, but instead of looking after your kid, you seem a lot better at running around with other men.”The accusation hit her like a slap. Nora’s face flushed red. “Travis, not everything has to be as dirty as you think,” she snapped. “Eric and I are meeting a client. It’s work, not whatever twisted thing you’re imagining.”She didn’t want to waste another breath on him. Staying near this man even one more minute felt suffocating. She turned and walked away without looking back.Eric followed close behind.From a short distance away, Travis’s jaw tightened as he watched them leave. A dark look crossed his face, and after a moment’s hesitation, he followed them out.At the golf club later that afternoon, th

The club’s staff usually weren’t this strict.After all, most people didn’t come to play golf, they came to make deals. And many women with some money and ambition knew it. They’d grit their teeth, buy the cheapest membership card, and hang around hoping to meet someone wealthy.Normally, it didn’t cause trouble. The rich men who came here rarely turned down a little attention.But today, things had clearly gone too far.The staff exchanged uneasy glances before stepping forward to check Melinda’s membership.She hesitated, her smile stiff, and reluctantly pulled out a plain white entry-level card. In front of so many people, her face burned with humiliation.One of the staff members looked at the card, then said politely but firmly, “Ma’am, your membership doesn’t allow you to be in this section. Please return to your designated area.”The words might have been polite, but the action wasn’t.Two men in tuxedos moved forward, clearly intending to escort her out—by force if nece

The men clearly didn’t come with good intentions. Nora’s brows furrowed.“He’s my employee” she said coolly. “Of course I know who he is.”She kept her tone polite but distant. There was no reason to say more.Under normal circumstances, that should’ve been enough to make them back off.But today, these men weren’t here for business—they were here for trouble.One of them smirked. “Come on, Ms. Yates. You really don’t know? Eric Woods may be the illegitimate son the Woods family doesn’t acknowledge, but that family’s still one of the most powerful in the city. Why would someone like him suddenly show up here as your ‘public relations manager’?”Their insinuations made Nora’s stomach tighten with irritation. She rose to her feet, refusing to even look at them.“Let’s go,” she said to Eric.But the men stepped sideways, blocking their way again, their smiles growing sharper.“An assistant’s salary can’t buy a gold VIP card like that,” one of them sneered. “Doesn’t it bother you,
