No Divorce? The Billionaire's Love Chase! novel Chapter 483

They remained at a standoff for a long while, neither of them speaking.

Finally, York lowered the pillow and turned to leave.

With a stiff back, Claudia watched him exit the bedroom, then collapsed onto the bed, feeling utterly drained.

This was York's private island. Without him, she couldn't leave.

Besides, her phone was in his possession, cutting her off from the outside world.

Since things had come to this, she decided to use this opportunity to draw a clear line with York and make him give up for good.

As Claudia lay on the bed, lost in thought, York entered the bedroom again, this time holding a bowl of porridge.

He glanced at her, then placed the bowl on the nightstand. "I made you some porridge. Get up and eat."

When Claudia didn't react, York bent down to help her up.

Expressionless, Claudia pushed him away and turned her back to him.

York knelt on the edge of the bed, propping one hand behind her.

"You have low blood sugar," he said. "You can't go on without eating."

Seeing she remained unmoved, York forcibly turned her to face him.

Their eyes met, and his tone softened.

He coaxed her in a low voice, "Even if you're angry with me, don't play games with your health. You need to eat to have the strength to fight with me."

The coldness and distance in Claudia's eyes were all too clear. "Don't flatter yourself, York. I simply can't stomach anything you make. It disgusts me!"

They stared at each other at close range, and York slowly let her go.

Claudia turned her back to him again, ignoring him completely.

He was losing control, his defenses were crumbling, but it was only because his male pride had been provoked. It was his possessiveness flaring up.

He hadn't yet truly realized his mistakes.
