Mason did not immediately let her go.He pressed her against the wardrobe door, his large palm slipping into her robe, teasing her lightly, "What could be more important for you to do than me?"Zoe, of course, was familiar with such tricks from a man like him.She slightly tilted her head, enduring his teasing. Occasionally, she could not help but let out a soft moan.After a while,her eyes were misty as she spoke, "Mason, I told you that I was not going to be locked up like a bird in a cage. The freedom to go where I want and do what I want was part of the deal."Mason did not inquire. He released her, giving a light snort. "It seems Mrs. Lockwood is planning to do something big."Then, right in front of her, he took off his bathrobe and started dressing.Mason had a great figure.He had a tall and well-built frame, covered with a thin layer of natural muscles, not an ounce of excess fat, but also not the type of muscle mass developed in the gym.He stripped down to just a bl

Zoe quickly said, "Aiden, you're being modest." Her compliment was not just flattery. Aiden was highly respected in the industry, internationally renowned, and held a prestigious status.Aiden had always liked her. He smiled at David and said, "I enjoy hearing her praises."David poured tea for him, adding, "You should take this chance to relax. There's no need to be so restrained. You seemed so tense the last time you met… Ms. Lilith, was it? I knew you were holding back your disdain."Aiden patted David's back. "Let's not dwell on that. Why bring her up?"David, with a look of sudden realization, kept apologizing to Zoe. "My bad, I wasn't really thinking. I'm sorry, Zoe."Zoe was not foolish. They were trying to dig into Lilith's affairs, and she guessed it was because Mason brought Lilith to meet Aiden. Aiden might not have liked her, but he saw the potential in Mason's deep pockets.She smiled faintly. "I understand."Then, Aiden began to vent. After sipping some tea, he

Mason tilted his head back, exhaling a slow stream of gray smoke. He glanced at Leslie, saying, "I'm not a comedian."Leslie choked on the smoke. He was about to ask about Zoe when Gabriela approached with a glass of red wine.She had dressed up meticulously for the occasion. She wore a dress that exuded femininity, and every move deliberately showcased her womanly charm.Seating herself next to Mason, she spoke in a familiar tone, "Mason, why didn't you bring Zoe along? Since you two got married, it seems like you haven't taken her out much. Is it because you don't see me as being worthy of meeting her, or is it that you don't find your wife attractive?"This remark contained a hint of flirtation and a dash of curiousity.While she spoke, her body was almost leaning against Mason's shoulder, the soft, fair skin rubbing against his crisp white shirt. Gabriela believed that no man could resist such subtle temptation.Leslie pretended not to hear, taking a sip of his drink.Mason

Mason was a scion of a wealthy family. He rarely engaged in physical altercations, especially not over a woman. However, today was different. He got into a heated brawl with Gregory, and it was quite intense. Neither backed down, and both ended up with some bruises.In the end, Mason delivered a harsh kick to Gregory. Turning to Zoe, he said, "Let's go."Despite the pain, Gregory grabbed Zoe's arm, his face bruised but intense. He stared into her eyes and said, "The last time you told me, I only make things difficult for women. You said besides Mason, no one could help you. "Zoe, now I'm telling you, I can too. I promise to give you everything Mason can, and even what he can't. Zoe, why go back to him? Why chain yourself to this loveless marriage? You admitted you don't love him anymore."Zoe watched him calmly. After a while, she gently pushed away Gregory's hand, smiling faintly. "Gregory, I think you've misunderstood. I chose to go back to Mason willingly. Our relationship is

Ella felt her heart ache to the point of tears. She tightly held Zoe's hand. "Why is he so fickle? Is he going through an early mid-life crisis or something?"The atmosphere, initially heavy, lightened up when Ella made that remark. Zoe even chuckled. "It's quite possible!"The two chatted for a while. Ella looked at Zoe with a complex expression. "Last night, Gregory ended up in the hospital. He broke a rib, and it was Leslie who sent him there. Gabriela couldn't stand Gregory's feelings for you. The siblings had a big fight at the hospital, and it was Mrs. Margaret who eventually came to resolve it. I guess the Waldolf family is in chaos right now."Zoe stirred her coffee with her head down. In a low voice, she said, "I didn't provoke him."Ella naturally understood that she was worried about Gregory not giving up. In simple terms, Gregory only had some fear of Zoe because she was Mason's wife. If that were to change someday…Ella did not dare to think about it. She refraine
