Chapter 1563:
Jules’ smile waned. “I know,” he said, lighting a cigarette with a flick of his lighter. “And that’s why I'm thankful to
Rachel, and I'll ensure she never suffers.”
Corrine frowned. “She’s invested emotionally in you, and all you offer is gratitude?” she asked.
As soon as the words left her mouth, she realized she had spoken more than intended.
Jules and Rachel's relationship was theirs to navigate.
Yet, thinking of Rachel, who had ventured alone to this new life without family or friends for support, Corrine felt
a sympathetic twinge.
“She’s not marrying you for your gratitude, but for your heart,” she continued, poking Jules’ chest firmly. “Try to

Jules snapped out of his daze and lifted his gaze.

heart skipped a beat, her pulse fluttering wildly. She instinctively lowered her gaze, her long lashes quivering like
butterfly wings.
Jules extinguished his cigarette and adjusted the cuff of his sleeve. “Let's go.”
Rachel nodded.
As she turned to lead the way, he unexpectedly reached out and took her hand. The sudden warmth of his touch
jolted her. It felt like a current pulsed through her veins, awakening every nerve. Her breath hitched as the
sensation traveled through her, setting her heart alight.
Startled, she glanced at him.

Jules threw a glance over his shoulder at Rachel, who hadn’t moved an inch, and asked, “What's up?”
“Nothing,” she replied, shaking her head.
Without another word, he held her hand firmly and walked on.
Trailing behind him, Rachel gazed at
