All Chapters of No Longer Theirs: The One They Can't Replace: Chapter 341 - Chapter 350

Winter's wrists were delicate.Joshua lowered his gaze, drawn to the small stretch of exposed skin, his eyes darkening."Win, why are you not wearing the emerald bangle I gave you? That's a precious piece!" Florence gently clasped Winter's wrist. "Don't you like it?"Winter hurried to explain, anxious that Florence might misunderstand. "I do. It's just that the bangle is too valuable, and I don't really attend any formal events. Wearing it every day would draw too much attention. And I'm clumsy—I'd probably break it. So I've been keeping it safe.""Don't be silly. Jewelry is meant to be worn, not hidden away. You're my granddaughter-in-law. Wearing it isn't just about status—it warns anyone who might overstep." Florence cast a pointed look at Joshua as she spoke.But he didn't notice, lost in thought, staring at Winter's wrists.Winter understood perfectly and didn't care. Her affection for Florence was genuine. With Joshua, it was all pretense, just playing along.Florence adde

Heather hated Winter to the core, but she still chose her words carefully when she spoke about Winter."My son and daughter-in-law have been married for years. They've given us a lovely grandson, who is five years old this year. I had hoped for another, a girl, but after her first difficult labor, I couldn't insist. I wanted a granddaughter, yes, but her health comes first. I just let things take their course."As Heather spoke, her eyes flicked to Ezekiel, dark and assessing.However, he remained unreadable, his expression calm. His eyes were also clouded, revealing nothing.Susan frowned. "Zeke, you've only just returned. When did you befriend Mr. Stroud's wife?""Her son and mine are classmates," Ezekiel said, voice low. "That's all."Jasmine crossed her arms and smirked."That's all? You're clearly close with my sister-in-law. At Avalon Monastery, we ran into you with her. You were attentive. We saw it."Susan froze, a flicker of shock crossing her face."Oh, Mrs. Fulton, do

"Zeke? Did you hear me?" Susan asked.Ezekiel's voice was hoarse. "No. I'm not into anyone.""In that case, I'll get your father to set up some blind dates for you. He'll find ladies with good looks and strong backgrounds, far above Heather's daughter-in-law. Being with one of them could do wonders for your future."Ezekiel's brow furrowed deeply. "I don't need that."Susan's tone turned serious. "Zeke, do you know Joshua's wife personally?""I do.""Could it really be, just as Heather said…"Ezekiel drew a deep breath. "No.""That's a relief. Really, it is. Not only is that woman married, but she also has a child. Instead of tending to her family, she's secretly entangled with you. A woman like that can't be trusted. You need to keep your distance."Susan exhaled in relief, held Ezekiel's cold hand tightly, and added, "Zeke, your father has finally let you return to Fulton Group. No one understands the struggles we went through better than us. Everything I've done is for you.

Abel felt his head spin—this was maddening. Time and again, he had to act as Ezekiel's shield. At the crucial moment, he even instinctively came up with a lie to protect Ezekiel.At this rate, in a few years, he'd probably have to start demanding a little compensation from Ezekiel.Still drunk, Ezekiel rested a hand against his forehead, a crease forming between his brows.The man had been ready to cause trouble, but seeing the boyfriend show up, he lost all interest in Ezekiel. He rolled his eyes at Abel and scoffed. "All skin and bones, a flat bottom, and a pale face like a weakling… It seems he has zero taste in men."With that, the man stormed off.Abel gritted his teeth and roared, "Fucker! You're the weakling!""Mr. McGill!" George rushed over, sweat beading on his forehead. Seeing Ezekiel nearly unconscious from drinking, he panicked. He had rarely seen Ezekiel like this. "What happened to Mr. Fulton? He's never drunk this much in public, and there's no way he'd let himsel

Abel and George helped the utterly limp Ezekiel into the car; he was so weak it was as if his soul itself had been drained.On the way back to the Fulton residence, George drove while Abel sat in the back, keeping an eye on Ezekiel, who was completely passed out from too much alcohol."Mr. McGill, haven't you known Mr. Fulton for years? You two are practically inseparable. About Mr. Fulton and Ms. Everhart… did you really have no idea at all?" George asked worriedly, sneaking a glance at Abel's conflicted expression in the rearview mirror."This guy's been mooning over her behind the scenes. I'm not a mind reader, so how was I supposed to know?" Abel looked down at Ezekiel's sharply defined, handsome face and let out a low sigh. "I truly don't know what's gone on between him and Ms. Everhart, but there's one thing I do know.""What is it?" George asked.Abel laughed helplessly and flicked Ezekiel on the forehead. "He's completely gone! A terminal romantic, beyond saving! Hmph! Tur
