Mr. Fake-Mute's Love Game Ended When I Stopped Playing the Fool novel Chapter 37

Meanwhile, in a luxurious estate in Provence, France, endless fields of lavender bloomed in breathtaking waves of purple.

The rich fragrance calmed my mind. I lay on a lounge chair in the garden, soaking in the peace that was finally mine.

A shadow fell over me.

I opened my sleepy eyes to find a man standing there–devastatingly handsome, like something out of a myth. He wore a tailored suit, his presence sharp and commanding.

But when he looked down at me, his eyes softened completely, filled with tenderness that seemed to melt everything cold in the

world.

“Awake?”

I stretched lazily and looped my arms around his neck, teasing him.

“You said you’d be busy all day. How’d you get back so early?”

He scooped me up effortlessly, cradling me in his arms, and kissed me gently on the lips before answering.

“Our wedding’s in a week. The dress just arrived. Want to try it on?”

I blinked up at him, curious.

“You came back just for that?”

He chuckled softly and kissed my forehead.

“When it comes to you, nothing else in the world matters more.”

The way he looked at me–so sincere, so devoted–made my cheeks burn. I ducked my head shyly, but more than anything, I felt

overwhelmed with emotion.

In seven years with Kieran, he’d never once made me feel like I mattered this much.

Being cherished like this… it made my chest ache.

And the man giving me this kind of love?

Noah Ashford.

The same man whose arranged marriage proposal I’d turned down seven years ago,

Back then, I never imagined anyone would wait seven years for me after being rejected.

When Noah first saw the injuries covering my body, his expression turned lethal. He traced the wounds gently, but his voice dropped

to ice.

“Who did this to you?”

I stayed quiet.

The silence in the car was suffocating.

Then Noah let out a cold laugh–low, dangerous.

“Good.”

He pulled out his phone and gave orders to his secretary, voice calm but ruthless.

“Fly in the best medical team in the world. I want a full examination for my wife.”

A pause.

His eyes flashed with razor–sharp cruelty.

“And look into Virex Group. I want whoever hurt my wife to pay.”

The moment Noah finished speaking, the Maybach pulled up to the estate.

I moved to get out, but he lifted me into his arms again, tone leaving no room for argument.

‘You’re injured. You’ll do as you’re told.”

He carried me all the way inside and set me down gently on a velvet chaise, like I was made of glass.

The medical team he’d summoned was already waiting. They began their work immediately.

Over the following days, under Noah’s constant care, my body healed at an almost miraculous pace.

He cleared his entire schedule, staying by my side nearly every moment.

Thanks to his devotion, I didn’t just recover–I rediscovered my passion for design.

Before long, I became one of the most sought–after designers in Paris.

The night I walked the runway at Paris’s most prestigious fashion show, Noah proposed.

And he gave me a gift-
