All Chapters of No Longer Theirs: The One They Can't Replace: Chapter 461 - Chapter 470

Winter tried two outfits—simple in style yet thoughtfully designed. The cuts hugged her curves perfectly, highlighting her graceful figure. Michelle stared shamelessly, practically drooling."I seriously don't get it! Is something wrong with Joshua's eyes? How could he have a wife as stunning as you and still not be satisfied, Winter? And he runs after that malnourished Jessica instead? He must be out of his mind!""Let's not talk about him and ruin our mood." Winter changed back into her own clothes and had the two outfits she'd tried on wrapped up. "I'll take these."The sales assistant smiled warmly. "Certainly, ma'am. The total comes to 208 thousand dollars. How would you like to pay?"Michelle choked. "What?"She nearly fainted at the price, but Winter calmly took out her card.The amount stung a little, but things were different now. She would be attending more public events going forward. If she dressed too plainly, people would look down on her, and in business negotiatio

Jessica knew that, in the past, Winter had devoted herself entirely to Joshua and Terence. She had loved Joshua fiercely and had spent even the smallest amount of pocket money on them both.But Joshua had never cared for her gifts, dismissing them casually, leaving them on a shelf to gather dust. The only exception was a pen she had given him, engraved with the initials of both their names—he had treasured it ever since.Yet for some inexplicable reason, this time he was using something Winter had given him. After all those years of indifference, now, with their marriage seemingly on the verge of collapse, he suddenly remembered these cheap gifts.Jessica lowered her gaze, concealing the venomous rage flickering in her eyes.She could grab a pair of scissors and shred that hideous tie to pieces right then and there."Josh, I thought you didn't like red," she said, her tone a mixture of reproach and irritation."I did, once," Joshua replied casually as he adjusted his suit in the

"Wait, you don't recognize her? She's the famous daughter of Cloudeast Tech's chairman and the director of the R&D department at Stroud Group—Ms. Jessica Lynch!""What? The director of the R&D department at Stroud Group? She's so young! That's seriously impressive!""I've heard there's more going on between her and Mr. Stroud. He may be married, but everyone can see where his attention really lies. He brings Ms. Lynch everywhere and gives her all the spotlight.""That's normal. If I had someone that beautiful and that smart—someone who understands me and boosts my career—I'd treasure her too!""And what about your wife?""My wife? A woman who cooks and watches the kids? If we get along, great. If not, we divorce!""Haha! Poor Mrs. Stroud. She doesn't even get to appear in public with her husband. She must be miserable!"The gossip drifted into Jessica's ears. Instead of shame, she felt satisfaction. In the face of absolute capability, morality meant nothing.Winter might have b

"I thought I was seeing things! That's actually your wife!"Blake was stunned. Leaning close to the frozen Joshua's ear, he muttered, "Wait—doesn't she usually stay cooped up at home? What's she doing here all of a sudden? She was just a housewife, and after leaving you, she's supposed to be unemployed."How does she even have an invitation? How dare she show up here? Hang on… she's not here to humiliate you, is she? To cause a scene?""Buzz off." Joshua's eyes glinted coldly, his voice low and sharp.Blake shut up immediately, but he still felt uneasy for his buddy. His gaze shifted toward Jessica with concern.Sure enough, Jessica's expression had darkened. Her glossy red lips pressed into a thin line.From their previous clashes, Blake had already seen past Winter's gentle facade to the steel underneath. He had witnessed her darker, fiercer, unruly side.If Winter made a scene after seeing Joshua and Jessica, the two of them would be utterly humiliated and become the summit's

"Ms. Everhart, you're too modest." Michelle looked exasperated, her eyes practically starry as she stared at Winter. "If you're ordinary, then Jessica's looks are downright tragic!"Winter ignored her teasing and continued, "Who is he, really?""He's Reginald Fulton, Leonard's eldest son. He's also the current CEO of Fulton Group!" Michelle was a gossip aficionado. She knew every secret about wealthy families in Jeston. "The Fulton family patriarch started out in organized crime as one of its top enforcers, fighting his way up until he became the boss."Leonard's father—Reginald's grandfather—also straddled the law and crime in his early years and accumulated wealth through violent means. Only around 50 did he start gradually legitimizing the family business. By the time Leonard took over, the Fulton family was a proper conglomerate.""Legitimized? Really?" Winter asked skeptically. "Of course not." Michelle lowered her voice and kept gossiping, practically buzzing with excitemen
