After divorce, Ex-wife Revealed Identities

Chapter 283

Franklin knew she hadn't woken up yet, but he thought she looked adorable at this moment.

Chuckling, he held her in his arms.

Dawn broke the day. It was getting bright.

Sylvia felt uncomfortable after waking up, wondering if the antidote had stopped working.

The thought shocked her, and she immediately sat up. Then she found the man lying next to her.

His handsome face was with a sharp outline. Under his slightly raised eyebrows, his eyes were closed

tight.

His lips were pressed together under his straight nose.

Although he was sleeping, he looked tense.

'Franklin? Why is he here? Has he returned from his business trip?'

Sylvia looked at him in surprise. Then she checked herself and saw the kiss marks all over her skin.

She blushed, realizing it wasn't her dream last night, and she did it again. Sylvia felt indeed

embarrassed, covering her face.

Then she looked at Franklin's sleeping face, raised her hand, and rubbed his eyebrows.

When her fingertips touched his forehead, his palm grabbed her hand.

His sharp eyes snapped open, and he looked at her on alert.

Seeing Sylvia, Franklin slowly got up and asked hoarsely, "Why did you wake up so early?"

With scarlet cheeks, Sylvia asked, "When did you come back?"

Franklin looked at her up and down, a smile touching his eyes. Under the light, her skin was so fair. Her

eyes reminded him of the starry night, and her eyelashes were long and thick. He couldn't take his

gaze off her at all.

"When you were missing me," he answered.

Sylvia flushed hotly. After returning from abroad, Franklin became better at flirting.

She was red-faced and hot, feeling the room's temperate rise.

When she lowered her eyes, she saw him wearing a black shirt.

In the past, whenever they were alone, Franklin always got naked and wished to show off his well-

toned body.

He worked out often, so he was proud of his pecs and abs.

However, he wore a shirt this time.

Sylvia felt confused.

She looked up at his ink-black eyes, only to find him smiling at her leisurely and sexily.

He emanated a charm that could drive every woman crazy.

Sylvia was obsessed.

Before she returned to her senses, Franklin pounced at her and pressed her against his chest.

Sylvia almost stopped breathing.

Silence surrounded them.

The morning sunlight fell on their faces through the window, coloring them with halos.

Franklin pressed a kiss on her lips but didn't move.

He stared at her quietly.

Her long eyelashes flapped slightly, exposing the affection in her lovely eyes.

His mind was blank, and he slowed down all his movements.

Franklin slowly let go of her. Much to his surprise, Sylvia wrapped her arms around his neck and sighed

on his lips, "Sweetie, you seemed to lose some weight."

He looked thinner.

"I couldn't have dishes cooked by you, so I lost some weight," Franklin answered, a sharp pang rising

in his heart.

Suddenly, he understood why Sylvia refused to tell him she was poisoned.

He also suffered a lot as he didn't want to worry her.

Although he knew she lied, he didn't have the heart to expose it.

They both had lied for each other's good but pretended to be careless.

Closing his eyes, Franklin embraced Sylvia tightly.

"You've lost some weight, too," he muttered.

Of course, Sylvia had.

She had spat blood on the first few days when she started taking the antidote. Whenever she did it, she

became weaker.

She had suffered every day, and Franklin watched her while feeling extremely sorry for her.

How he wished to suffer on her behalf!

The previous night, he planned to leave after hugging her for a while but failed to repress his desire.

Their making out last night exhausted him.

Well, he could keep everything he did for her to himself.

...

In the morning the next day, when Franklin didn't pay attention, Sylvia hid in the bathroom and took two

antidote pills.

Then she walked out.

"James and Romeo took the Wilson Group internship, right?" Franklin asked in her ear while buttoning Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

his cuff-links elegantly.

Sylvia's ear turned red. Nodding, she answered, "They had nothing to do, anyway. It's almost summer

vacation, so the internships in Wilson Group aren't bad."

Some other fresh graduates were also sent to Wilson Group with them.

"Why are you so interested in Wilson Group?" Franklin asked, his eyes looking tentative.

Arching a brow, Sylvia glanced at him. "Well... I can't tolerate that some people are using dirty tricks."

An enchanting smile played on her pink lips. She asked, "Why? Do you want to rat me out or what? I

heard Wilson Group is a competitor to Maskelyne Group. Are you sure you'll take Clark Wilson's side?"

'Humph! How dare you not help me, Franklin! You do have guts!' thought Sylvia.

With a naughty smile, Franklin was about to speak, but Sylvia suddenly held his cheeks. They almost

clung, their breath intertwining.

She could see the light spots on his pupils.

Studying Franklin in such a short distance, Sylvia had to admit his skin was flawless.

When he lifted a brow, he put off a strong vibe, making him too seductive.

Gazing at his hot lips, Sylvia added, "Franklin, remember our relationship. While you were on the

business trip, I suddenly figured out something."

"What was it?" Franklin asked deeply, looking into her eyes.

Her soft lips were so close to him, making his Adam's apple roll up and down.

He could never resist her when she took the initiative to approach him.

"Life is tough. We must cherish everyone around us." Sylvia tiptoed and wanted to kiss him.

However, Franklin pushed her face away. With a stern look, he glared at her, "You don't want to

remarry me but you are hitting on me, huh?"

Sylvia slightly raised her head, her heart fluctuating.

Without hesitation, she approached him again.

She was active this morning, and Franklin almost lost control of his self-restraint.

He seized her wrists, lifted her, and let her sit on his lap.

After darting a glance at her affectionately, he bent down his head and kissed her passionately.

Sylvia was almost burned by his heated breath.

Franklin seemed to punish her, his blood boiling in his veins.

His reason was gradually engulfed by his lust.

However, he repressed the urge to take her.

After letting go of her, he flinched.

Franklin hurriedly adjusted his mood. When he looked at Sylvia again, the lust and arousal had

vanished from his eyes.

"Sweetie, do you still have no intention to remarry me?"

Sylvia was taken aback for a moment. His words hammered her heart, something burning and bitter

rising.

After a long time, she replied, "Franklin, we shall date before remarrying."

Franklin narrowed his eyes slightly. He lowered his eyes to cover the mixed feelings in them. In desire,

he asked, "Sweetie, don't you want to wear the wedding dress for me?"

Gritting her teeth, Sylvia answered, "Franklin, we've never dated. I want to date you and enjoy being in

a romantic relationship."

She had a virus and the uncleared Rejuvenator in her body, so she didn't think she deserved to remarry

him like this.

Besides, she needed to find her mother's whereabouts and take revenge on the NN terror group.

She never accepted suffering in vain. An eye for an eye. An ear for an ear.

If Franklin were involved in those matters, she would regret it all her life.

This time, she was almost killed by NN terror group, and she wouldn't let go of them quickly.

NN terror group was too mysterious for Sylvia to find their base.

She just barely survived this time.

Franklin stiffened. Mixed feelings surged, causing his heartache. He also felt disgraced. Sylvia always

had a way of making him worry about her and then letting him down.

"You still don't trust me, do you?"

With those words, he strode away without looking back.

Staring at his stern, lonely back, Sylvia gritted her teeth and pressed her lips together.

...

In the headquarters of Wilson Group.

Romeo and James majored in finance, but they were assigned to the PR department.

"What should we do in the PR department?" James lowered his voice to ask Romeo.

"How am I supposed to know?" Romeo replied, looking blank.

Although they majored in finance, they had never thought of inheriting their families' companies. After

all, their elder brothers could shelter them.

They only wanted to enjoy life, such as playing video games, hanging out in bars, and hooking up with

girls.

However, considering Sylvia's words to him that day, James wanted to make some achievements.

He couldn't continue to lead a dandy's life.

Since he had entered Wilson Group to take an internship, he decided to work hard.

If he entered Maskelyne Group, all employees would know his background, so they wouldn't let him do

anything. However, no one knew him in Wilson Group, which was different.

"Let's do as the manager tells us to."

"I agree. We should obey the manager."

The two boys thought they needed to go out, drink with the clients, and sign some contracts.

However, the manager directly assigned them to a project, surprisingly. "The recent trends are harmful

to our company."
