Nicolas hesitated. In truth, he didn’t really want to throw away those two rings. Those rings were like a constant reminder of what he owed Zoya.

But right now, with Jasmine’s and Daphne’s eyes fixed on him, the words of refusal just wouldn’t come out of his mouth.

‘What’s wrong, Mr. Mayer? You don’t want to?” Daphne asked.

‘Nicolas!” Jasmine frowned slightly.

Nicolas clenched his jaw and forced a smile. “Of course I want to. And being able to attend

he island’s groundbreaking ceremony is something I couldn’t ask for more.”

“That’s good.” Daphne smiled. “I’ll ask Uncle for two more invitations, then we can all go ogether.”

She could hardly wait to see Zoya’s expression when she, the discarded ex-wife, was humiliated in public as Nicolas threw away their wedding rings in front of everyone.

And everyone would know that Zoya was nothing but a cast-off woman.

Even if Wren didn’t mind that Zoya was divorced, once enough gossip spread, it would surely have an impact on him. Maybe he’d start resenting her because of it.

The more Daphne thought about it, the more impatient she became for the groundbreaking ceremony to arrive.

Ever since that night when Wren was brought out of the forbidden room by Zoya, she had been staying by his side these past few days. Even at night, she slept in his bedroom.

At first, it was because she worried he might relapse again. So after taking him back to his room that night, she stayed there to keep watch all night,

But the next evening, while they were at the dinner table, he directly said, “Can you sleep with me for one more night?”

Gilbert was so shocked that he looked back and forth between his boss and Zoya.

Zoya rubbed her temple, knowing Gilbert had misunderstood. “You’re fine now, so there’s no need for me to stay in your room overnight anymore.”

Wren said, “But I feel safe when you’re here. You’re my bodyguard now. You’re supposed to

protect me, aren’t you?”

She was speechless, unable to refute him.

So, that evening, she had no choice but to move her bedding and pillow to the sofa in Wren’s

room.

Gilbert then secretly pulled her aside and whispered, “Ms. Lucero, you know… a man and a woman alone together in the same room, sometimes things can get out of hand. If you really can’t control yourself with Mr. Richmond… uh, you should at least take precautions.”

“Precautions?” Zoya didn’t react at first.

Gilbert directly pushed a box into her hand. “Mr. Richmond probably won’t refuse you.”

He thought, ‘He might even welcome it!’

Gilbert felt that as a secretary, this was as far as he could go to be helpful.

“What are you two talking about?” Wren’s voice came.

Gilbert hastily replied, “Nothing. I’ll head back now!”

With that, he quickly left.

Only Zoya and Wren remained in the room. Wren’s gaze fell on the item Zoya was holding. “What is this?”

“Gilbert gave it to me…” Zoya’s voice suddenly trailed off because at that moment, she clearly saw what Gilbert had just given her.

To her surprise, it was a box of condoms.

Zoya suddenly felt an urge to swear. ‘What was Gilbert thinking?’

Wren, however, looked calmly at the condom in Zoya’s hand and asked nonchalantly, as if inquiring about the weather, “Want to use it?”

Zoya felt a sudden headache. ‘How could he discuss such a matter in such a casual tone?’

“Of course not!” she quickly said, tossing the box in her hand into a nearby drawer.

A hint of regret flickered in Wren’s eyes. ‘Does she still not want me?’

“Alright, go to sleep,” Zoya said, wanting to end this awkward situation as quickly as possible.

“Talk to me. If you do, I might be able to sleep,” Wren said.

“What should I say?” she asked.

“Anything,” he said. He simply wanted to hear her voice, which would help him relax.

Zoya then pulled out a magazine. It was a technology magazine, and the content interested her. She read aloud, her soft voice drifting through the room.

Wren felt his tense nerves gradually relax as he listened to her voice. It was as if his body was telling him that she was special.

If this continued, he would grow more and more attached to her. Like a man walking through endless darkness. Once he had experienced the warmth of sunlight, he would stop at nothing to claim it for himself.

Wren slowly closed his eyes. He never used to sleep in front of others because it made him feel vulnerable. But with Zoya here, he could sleep peacefully.

Two days later, Zoya accompanied Wren to attend the government-led groundbreaking ceremony on the island.

On the boat, Zoya couldn’t help but ask, “Your… condition, you really don’t need to see a doctor?”

She was referring to his episode in the forbidden room, the way he seemed lost in a nightmare.

“I’ve already taken the medicine. Don’t worry. Besides, it’s been many years since I had a relapse.” Wren replied.

If not for this incident, he had almost believed he was cured, that the shadows of his childhood no longer held power over him.

He wondered if it was because Daphne suddenly brought up old memories about that room, triggering those memories and making him relapse again.

When he thought of this, Wren pursed his thin lips, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes.

At that moment, the boat reached the port. Zoya and Wren’disembarked, only to see Daphne and several Lucero family elders waiting at the dock.

Daphne walked up

with a bright smile, greeting Wren, “Wren, you’re here. I’ve been waiting for you for so long.”

It was as if the scene of Wren choking her neck had never happened.

Wren glanced indifferently, ignoring Daphne.

Daphne didn’t mind, turning instead toward Zoya. “Oh, by the way, Zoya. Your ex-husband is here today too! He said he had something to tell you!”

Zoya frowned. Daphne turned toward the distance, where Nicolas stood with Jasmine, and called out, “Mr. Mayer, Zoya is here. Didn’t you say you wanted to settle things with her face to face? Now’s your chance!”

Nicolas’s body stiffened. He looked at Daphne with a grim expression, then turned his gaze to Zoya.

“Nicolas, you’re not unwilling to do it, are you?” Jasmine’s voice sounded beside his ear. “If you really don’t want to, I won’t force you. But if you keep holding on to those wedding rings with Zoya, even if I don’t misunderstand, other people might, and that could bring unnecessary embarrassment.”

Hearing this, Nicolas looked at Jasmine.

Yes, he and Zoya were already divorced. From now on, his heart should belong to Yunshuang

alone.

“I’m not unwilling!” he said, taking out the pair of wedding rings and striding toward Zoya.
