Chapter 40
Ang furrowed her brow and looked at Patrick, saying, “Patrick, thank you for helping me, but I
really don’t want you to get involved in this. It’s my personal matter!”
Seeing the displeasure in Ang’s eyes, Patrick felt as if his heart had been pricked with a needle,
and his face turned a shade paler.
She didn’t say anything more, turned around, and entered the elevator with Keh following her
Meanwhile, Patrick stood outside the elevator with his head hung low, unable to see his expression.
However, he knew that his words had probably hurt Ang.
Once the elevator doors closed, Keh sneered, “You were just trying to protect Patrick from me
with your little act back there, weren’t you? How quick of you to distance yourself from him and
look out for him?”
Ang looked at him with a poker face and replied, “It has nothing to do with you.”
“Say it has nothing to do with me one more time!” Keh retorted.
Having been at odds with Angtely, Keh’s patience was wearing thin. He didn’t know what
he might do if she continued to be so cold Toward him.
With a look of indifference and a hint of helplessness, Ang asked him, “What exactly do you
want!”
Keh’s expression was grim as he stared at Ang. “Come back to me, and I pretend none of
this ever happened.”
Upon hearing this, Ang lowered her gaze and, after a moment, responded, “I can’t do that. Our
only option now
He protested, “Ang, I’ve already exined to you that there’s nothing between me and Jennie
anymore. Why can’t you
Ang took a deep breath and shook her head, saying, “It’s not about me holding onto that. I just
want a divorce, that’s all.”
“That’s impossible!”
is divorce.”
let it go?!
“If it’s impossible, then let’s just lead our separate lives without interfering in each other’s affairs.”
Ang’s clear eyes reflected Keh’s figure, but the affection that once filled them was gone,
leaving only a dead calm..
“Lead our separate lives?” Keh uttered these words through gritted teeth, radiating a chilling
presence as if he could freeze everything around him
Ang nodded. “Yes, if you can ept that, then I won’t mention divorce again”
The elevator then fell into a suffocating silence, with Keh looking at her coldly, his eyes deep
and unreadable.
With a ding, the elevator doors opened, and Keh dragged Ang back to their room, then
threw her onto the bed.
Ang frowned, trying to get up from the bed, but Keh quickly got on top of her, trapping her
underneath him.
He stared angrily at Ang’s face. “Since you want to y, then I’ll y along with you!”
The next second, Keh began to unbutton Ang’s blouse.
Ang’s expression shifted slightly, and she grabbed his hand, saying coldly, “Keh, I have
absolutely no interest in you now!”
Keh smiled eerily as he slowly said, “But I’m not done with you yet. Maybe when I am, I’ll let
you go. How about we make this our deal?”
“If I had any feelings for you, maybe I’d consider your offer. But now, I feel disgusted every time you
touch me!” she retorted.
Keh’s expression turned grimmer as he stared at Ang and said indifferently, “Disgusted?
Didn’t you enjoy itst time at the hotel?”
Ang sneered, “That was because I was drugged and out of my senses. It could have been any
man, and I would have reacted the same way”
“Say that again, I dare you!” he demanded.
Ang raised an eyebrow and scoffed, “You wouldn’t want me to rely on drugs to suppress my
disgust for you every you?!
Keh red at Ang, his eyes filled with fury, looking as if he wanted to strangle her then and
there.

11:30 AM
Ang pusled him away and got up from the bed, looking at him coldly as she spoke. “If you have
needs, go find Jennifer. After all, this isn’t the first time for you two.”
Upon hearing this, Keh frowned, “Ang. I’ve already exined to you that there’s nothing
between Jennie and me!”
“Sure, if you say there’s nothing, there’s nothing then” She shrugged.
As Keh gazed at Ang’s indifferent expression, an overwhelming sense of frustration and
irritation welled up within him. It was as if, no matter how he tried to exin, Ang remained
unterly indifferent to his words.
This version of Ang made him feel helpless and unsure how to deal with her.
After a moment of silence, Keh got up and left the room.
Ang wasn’t concerned about where he went. After resting for a while, she applied sunscreen
and decided to stroll around the resort.
She hade here to have fun, not to argue with Keh.
As Ang wandered around, she found herself in the horseback riding area.
It had been a long time since shest rode a horse, and she felt a sudden urge to do so. The
promise of horseback riding was one of the reasons she agreed toe to the resort with Beatrice.
Ang headed toward the work area near the stables, where there were not only various horse
tacks but also riding gear for rent. Of course, one could also purchase them, albeit at a much higher
price.
As she walked in, a staff member approached her, asking, “Ms. Lewis, how can I assist you?”
Ang nodded. “Td like to buy a set of riding gear and some horse tack.”
“Sure, the riding gear is on the left. Please follow me,” said the staff member
Ang picked out a maroon color riding outfit,plete with gloves, a safety helmet, and boots.
After purchasing a riding crop and tack, she changed into her new attire and followed the staff to the
stable to choose a horse.
The
se instructor picked out a rtively smaller horse for her based on her height.
“Ms. Lewis, this horse is gentle and suitable fordies. You can spend some time getting familiar
with the horse. I’ll lead it around slowly at first, and then you can try to pick up the pace, the
instructor suggested.
Ang nced at the horse rmended by the instructor, but her gaze swept around and settled
on a sturdy chestnut–haired horse in the
CONCE
She pointed at that horse with her crop and said, “I want that one.”
The instructor was surprised, and just as he was about to speak, a mocking voice sounded from
behind,
“Some folks, I swear, have no idea where they get their confidence from. They’ll go ahead and take
on a wild horse like it’s no big deal, as if they’re not worried about falling and getting themselves
seriously injured!”

As Ang turned around and saw Keh, Henry, and the others standing not far away, she
couldn’t help but frown.
Debra was the one who had spoken just now. Seeing how brazen Debra still was right now. Ang
felt that she hadn’t learned her lesson from thest incident yet. Otherwise, Debra wouldn’t have
started provoking Ang so soon.
Henry nced at Keh, who was expressionless, and frowned at Debra, Debra, maybe keep
yourments to yourself!”
Debra’s face then turned sour. Just as she was about to retort, Jennifer intervened. “Henry, Debra
is just concerned for Ang. After all, that horse is a wild oor, and Ang might fall off it.”
Henry didn’t want to argue with the women over Ang, so he remained silent.
Not bothering to waste her breath with them, Ang turned to the instructor and said. “Til take that
one. Please bring it over. There are too many llies here. They’re annoying me.”
Debra angrily gritted her teeth, thinking. The stable is cleaned daily. Where would there be flies
around here! Ang is deliberately insulting me and Jennifer
As she seethed, someone suddenly grabbed her wrist.
Turning around. Debra saw Jennifer giving her a look, signaling Debra to wait and watch the drama
unfold
I 120 MM
Jennifer was pleased at the thought of Ang choosing a wild horse and potentially getting injured
or even killed.
Jennifer believed that Ang, a country girl mised in a rural vige, couldn’t possibly know how to
ride a horse.
Owen looked amused as he thought, Judging by Keh’s demeanor, he must have argued with
Ang again. Otherwise, he wouldn’t just stand there watching her choose that wild horse without
trying to stop her.”
Upton couldn’t help but frown, “Keh, even I might not be able to handle that horse. Ang will
definitely get hurt. You should go talk to her
about it.”
He felt that Keh, as Ang’s husband, was the most qualified person to advise her in this
situation.
Keh looked indifferent, and his eyes were devoid of any warmth.
“She chose the horse herself. If she gets hurt, it’s her own doing
