The Reborn Wife Strikes Back ( Gordon Holmes’ )
Chapter 31

Chapter 31 

“I’ve never given much thought to the concept of true love,” Gordon remarked, his brows knitting in confusion at my words. 

It wasn’t surprising. 

Given that he hadn’t yet met Sabrina, the thought of true love hadn’t crossed his mind. 

On the other hand, I had witnessed in a previous life how deeply he loved Sabrina, to the point of madness and recklessness. 

“You’ll understand once you meet her. It makes sense you haven’t thought about it yet,” I replied calmly, leaning back against the bed. 

“Must you speak to me in such a manner?” Gordon frowned again, clearly displeased. “I admit I was wrong earlier tonight. From now on, I’ll be more considerate of your feelings. 

Hearing such understanding words from Gordon for the first time, I must admit that I was quite surprised. 

I turned to look at him, raising an eyebrow. 

I said sarcastically, “Considerate of my feelings? Then how about you prove it? Call Nora right now in front of me and tell her to stay away. How’s that?” 

As expected, Gordon’s calm demeanor darkened instantly upon hearing my words. 

“Don’t overstep, Taylor.” 

He talked about being considerate. Yet, never mind distancing himself from his destined true love, whom he was about to meet soon, he wasn’t even willing to give up someone as th Nora.

Seeing his reaction, I felt even more suffocated inside. So, I buried my head in the blankets, no longer 

wanting to speak another word to him. 

“Holmes Group will soon hold its mid–year gala, which is very important for us. Prepare yourself these 

next few days. You’ll be attending with me.” 

Probably seeing that I had no intention of engaging with him, Gordon spoke again after a brief silence, 

informing me about the mid–year gala. 

He had never before thought to bring me along in any major event. 

During our two–year marriage, I was practically invisible in his life. Even when his parents occasionally 

recommended my involvement, he had consistently ignored it. 

Suddenly, he decided we should attend the gala together. It was a decision that genuinely surprised me. 

The end–of–year gala… 

Wasn’t that the event marking the beginning of his story with Sabrina? I had been secretly preparing for this gala for quite some time.

“Alright, I’ll be prepared.” 

I decided not to oppose him but instead calmly responded as I set aside the blanket. 

Given Gordon’s desire for me to join him at the gala, I resolved to fully embrace my role as Mrs. Holmes and ensure I was dressed to perfection for the event. 

I was curious how I would outshine Sabrina and how she intended to meet Gordon following this twist. 

This prospect excited me, and a smile naturally appeared on my face. 

Misreading my smile as joy at his invitation, Gordon unexpectedly reached out, gently patting my head 

like one would a child. 

“Actually, if you were a little more agreeable, I’d consider bringing you to more public events in the future.” 

What a delusional fellow. I felt truly “thankful” for that. 

I replied, “That sounds good. Isn’t that the essence of marriage? It would be even better without those annoying rumors constantly bothering me.” 

My words were laced with a veiled provocation meant to provoke him. 

“The real test is whether you can capture my heart,” he replied, surprisingly without annoyance.  sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Findɴovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Instead, he bent down to tuck the blanket around me, as though he was concerned I might get cold. 

Accustomed to his usual detachment, this unexpected act of kindness left me momentarily speechless. 

“The ravioli is getting cold, have it while it’s still warm. Once you’re done with your IV, I’ll take you back 

home.” 

He lifted the takeout box’s lid again, and the ravioli’s inviting scent wafted through the air. 

After a.crazy night and barely any dinner, my stomach had other plans for the quiet room. It growled. loudly, breaking the silence.
