I Refuse to Divorce novel (Zoe and Mason) novel Chapter 63

Mason drove back to the villa.

The housekeepers were surprised to see him, unaware of Zoe being hospitalized. They assumed he had gone on a business trip.

One of the housekeepers opened the car door.

"Are you back for dinner, sir? The kitchen didn't know that you were back, so it might take an hour for them to prepare something."

Mason, looking slightly fatigued, replied, "Just prepare something light."

The housekeeper hurried off to arrange it.

Mason got out of the car, entered the villa's hall, and found it well-maintained, even after his absence for a few days.

Mason, who had been busy all night, prepared to go upstairs for a quick shower. However, as soon as he opened the door to the master bedroom, he saw a large wedding photo hanging at the bedside.

In the picture, Zoe smiled sweetly, radiating happiness.

They got married in a haste. He did not like her, so he refused to take pictures. Therefore, she spent a hundred thousand to have this photo compose

When they married hastily, and he, not fond of her, refused to take pictures, she spent 800,000 dollars to have this photo composed.

Mason chuckled at her self-deception.

Zoe claimed he looked handsome. When she said he looked good, her eyes sparkled. Now, she cried and begged him to let her go, accusing him of hating her. She declared she no longer wanted to torment each other and desired a normal life, free from being Mrs. Lockwood.

Mason felt Zoe wasn't entirely wrong.

Even now, he hadn't forgiven her.

He couldn't forgive her. She wanted to leave when he couldn't let go.

Mason stood at the foot of the bed, gazing at the photo for a long time.

Then, he entered the dressing room to get a robe for a shower. He took a very long time looking for it. Life without Zoe felt unusual for him.

He vaguely felt he cared too much about Zoe.

Even hatred had become a matter of too much concern.

In the past, when they lived together, she would sway in front of him every day. She would even lie on his bed every night, subjecting herself to his whims.
