Billionaire Ex-wife: I Can't Live Without You

Bang! Bang! Bang! The knocking persisted, relentless.

It was late, too late to keep this up without bothering others.

Reluctantly, she swung the door open.

A tall figure filled the doorway, an aura of menace swirling around him.

Ouch… Dulcie winced as her wrist was seized in a vice-like grip, disorienting her momentarily.

When her head cleared, she found herself pinned against the wall, her arms held above her head by Kyson.

He held her wrists with one hand and her chin with the other, his voice rough with restrained fury.

Why did you hand in your resignation without telling me? Did you really think you could just walk out on the Shaw Group whenever you felt like it? he demanded. Dulcie nibbled at her lip, her eyes glistening with unshed tears as she spoke with conviction.

Im not owned by the Shaw Group.

Shouldnt I have the say in whether I stay or leave? Ill honor our one-year marriage contract and ensure no issues arise.

Ill even explain the situation to the Shaw family members.

You have nothing to worry about, Mr.

Shaw.

Her gaze was firm, unwavering even in the face of his daunting presence.noveldrama

Kysons temper flared, his breaths turning sharp and heavy.

I dont see myself fitting in with the Shaw Group.

She averted her eyes, her expression one of defiance.

Is it because of Gwen? Are you jealous of her? So, that girls name was Gwen.

Dulcie shook her head.

Not at all.

Please, Mr.

Shaw, dont project your assumptions onto me. As she tried to pull away, Kysons grip tightened, making escape impossible.

I need to rest.

Are you planning on staying here? Dulcies tone was laced with irony.

She doubted Kyson would ever linger in such a modest hotel.

To her surprise, Kyson released her, secured the door, and walked to the other bed.

Youre my lawful wife.

Why wouldnt I stay? he said.

Dulcie was left grasping for words.
