Chapter 420 

Mason smiled bitterly. “What else can we do?” 

Pulling at the back of her head, he stared at her profoundly. Both of their bodies were shivering uncontrollably. It had nothing to do with their lust. Instead, it was about their strong feelings for each other. 

They might’ve known each other for more than a decade, married for several years, went through several bittersweet split-ups and reconciliations, and made a couple of babies together, but they’d never bared their souls in this way ever before. 

His eyes were full of lust when he looked at her, but he suppressed them before leaning into her ears. “I want you to live a happy life.” His tone was similar to that of a lover as well as family. 

Zoe was still shivering all over. Raising her head, she looked at him. The light above shone on her, accentuating her fair, rosy cheeks. He loved looking at her when she was like this. 

She said to him in tears, “How am I supposed to be happy? Tell me, Mason. What makes you think I can be happy again?” 

He had no answer for her. 

The lane thing he wanted to do was become her burden. Given enough time, pain would subside and she’d slowly forget the things

She didn’t have a choice. She had to leave!

He didn’t have time to register what she said, but she had already stood up and left hastily. He saw the glint of tears in her eyes when she turned around at the door. Clenching his fists, he savored the warmth she left in his left palm. 

It was the only warmth he had felt in the past two years. 

Zoe still loved him! 

She hadn’t moved on from him! 

All of a sudden, he couldn’t hold himself back any longer. He fought tooth and nail to stand up, but he failed. He heard the sound of an engine started before it whirred away. Then, he closed his e despair.

heartbroken to see the sorry state he was in. 

She still had problems accepting the fact that Mason, who used to be 

as arrogant as he was vibrant, became what she saw today. 

He had or said that wives and kids were nothing more than bonuses and that power and status were what mattered the most! 

She also once accused him of not knowing how to love someone.. Now that he finally knew how to do it, she felt that he had paid too big a price. What happened to him was cruel… If it hadn’t been so ruthless, she thought, she might’ve been able to let go of their relationship and move on from him. 

The black limousine drove past a graffitied wall. She called out to her chauffeur in a husky voice, “Stop the car.”
