Chapter 148


    After a long time, he finally stopped.


    He pressed his lips against her soft ones. whispering. "You''re not allowed to like him."


    Zoe pushed him away, her tone indifferent. "I''ll order dinner for you. Talking about likes and dislikes is childish.”


    However, he pulled her back.


    Mason kissed her again, lifting her off the ground to kiss her deeply. After several years of marriage, Zoe only now realized how obsessed Mason


    could be in such matters. When he finally let her go, her legs trembled uncontrobly.


    She felt embarrassed thinking about what had happened just then.


    Mason was practically a beast.


    His sophisticated appearance was just a facade. At his core, he wasn''t much different from those lecherous and vulgar men. He yed even more


    recklessly.


    Zoe remained unmoved.


    She had deeply loved Mason and had witnessed his nobility, wealth. and the tenderness he showed when necessary. For young girls experiencing


    their first love, these were irresistible qualities


    However, Mason had hurt her for three years.


    In three years, even the hottest heart could turn cold. She didn’t feel that Mason loved her.


    He wouldn''t have done what he did by the door just now if he truly loved her. His liking for her was merely physical, making him feelfortable and


    satisfied. It was all about possessiveness.


    When he had his fill, he would naturally withdraw.


    By then, she could still retain her heart.


    Mason was actually quite busy. He had a recent project that required his attention.This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    Zoe was making trouble for him.


    He pursued her to Hucksburgh, and the pile of matters in thepany couldn''t be left unattended


    At night, he even had a meeting with thepany''s top executives


    It was already one in the morning when he was done.


    Zoe had gone to sleep.


    Mason took a shower andid on the bed. He gently held Zoe, ying with her hand. He knew she had woken up, judging by her breathing


    She pretended not to hear him, and he didn''t expose her. He was too tired from the day’s events to engage in anything more than what happened by


    the door earlier.


    He enjoyed seeing her lose control.


    As the night deepened, Mason hugged her tighter. Near her ear, he murmured, "Good night, Mrs. Lockwood."


    He closed his eyes. preparing to sleep.


    Muchter, in a daze, he seemed to hear Zoe''s voice. It sounded like three words. She said, "It''s toote."


    In the early morning, Mason woke up.


    Zoe leaned against the head of the bed, looking at him. Her entire being seemed rxed.


    Mason''s heart stirred, wanting to


    raise his head and kiss her. He was


    actually @ fastidious clean freaky but


    he hag-never been disgusted with


    Zoewhich led tost night''s-affair at


    the-door. .to


    “


    Zoe turned her face slightly.


    She spoke-Softly, "Mason, you don''t


    have to keep looking at me. Afterthe


    New Year, I''ll be touring the world.


    Are you going to follow me around


    the world? That''sme. Besides, I


    alse have my limits." Content

    This statement wasn''t pleasant.


    Mason felt a bit disappointed but didn''t say anything. He got out of bed and walked into the bathroom to freshen up.


    Zoe was about to get up when her phone rang


    It was a call from a real estate agency in Brookesville. She had asked someone to inquire about the new owner of Kirk Manor.


    The person said, "Ms. Zoe, I found


    out who the Buyer is. The buyer is a


    well-known wealthy figure in our city.


    He bought it as a gift for a young’


    lady. The manor just opened up)


    earlythis morning. I''ll keep checking


    foramore information and pfovide it


    t@you soon."


    Zoe held her phone. feeling happy.


    She thanked the person quietly and hung up. As she looked up, she saw Mason.
