When Willow finished resting, the whole family gathered in the dining room to enjoy dinner together.Looking at the table full of delicious dishes, Eric couldn't help but swallow hard.Julian noticed this and was worried Eric might feel too shy to eat. Hence, he served Eric some food with his utensils.Eric quickly waved his hands. "No need. I can do it myself.""Don't hold back," Julian uttered calmly.I glanced at Julian unintentionally. It was strange how his demeanor and interactions often made him seem distant and aloof. Yet, in everyday life, he came across as genuinely thoughtful.Willow had taken a few bites of her food. Once her hunger subsided a bit, she regained her usual energy as she asked, "Mommy, if I keep this up and train every day, can I become a martial arts master?"Though she hadn't even started practicing martial arts or boxing yet, her earlier dream of being a boxer had already been replaced by new ambitions.I wasn't sure what she meant by 'martial arts

It was clear what she was trying to say—Mason needed to have that lucky charm.However, Shayne didn't plan to give in to her. "I've given you plenty of money recently. If you really want to give Mason one, then take him out and buy him one yourself."As he spoke, he nudged Zach gently. "Want to open it and see if you like it?""Yes!" Zach realized that although Shayne always sided with Luna and Mason, when it came to major issues like this, Shayne would always back him up.Setting the paper bag aside, Zach opened the jewelry box and saw the bright golden item inside."Dad, I love it!" he exclaimed."Then go keep it in a safe place," Shayne replied, patting him on the back.Zach sprinted back to his room and closed the door. He opened his custom-made table. There was a hidden drawer there, and he slid it open, revealing several passbooks.The money there had been saved by Aralyn. There were also several property deeds, most of which were for commercial spaces. These were also th

"I just feel that you'll go back to Zach and be his mom again." Willow sobbed."Why would you think that?" I asked in surprise.She stifled her tears and replied, "Because you gave birth to him."Upon hearing this, I realized that Willow still felt insecure.Even though she usually played happily with me, any small stir from Zach would make her tense and worried that I would abandon her.I carefully considered how to reassure her."I know what it's like not to have a mom. It's not easy. But I also feel selfish… It's as if I stole someone else's mom. But I love you so much, Mommy. I don't want to give you back to him." Her voice trembled.I held her small hand gently and said, "Actually, I think being a little selfish is okay. You don't need to sacrifice your own happiness just to make someone else's life better."Willow looked at me, confused.I smiled. "I let go of Zach because he hurt me. No matter how much he changes afterward, it has nothing to do with me anymore. I chose

"I'm planning to sign you under my comic company. That way, you won't need to worry about promotion or publicity anymore. In the future, all you need to focus on is drawing your work," Julian uttered.These past few days, I had indeed been incredibly busy. Besides sketching, I had to color the completed line art. After finishing all that, I barely had any time left. Whatever time I did have, I spent brainstorming ways to get my work seen by a larger audience. My original plan was to set aside a few hours daily to learn promotional techniques. But now, Julian had saved me from that time-consuming effort."Thank you," I uttered, thrilled.Julian looked into my eyes. "Lyn, you don't have to be so formal with me."…Luna sat in her bedroom, growing increasingly frustrated. She still wanted to reclaim the golden lucky charm that had been gifted to Zach.Her initial plan had been to bring it up in passing when Shayne came to find her. But it was already 10:30 pm, and he still hadn't

It wouldn't be long before Shayne grew tired of her and found an excuse to kick her out.There was absolutely no way that Luna was going to let that happen.She made up her mind. She needed to find more opportunities to strengthen her bond with Shayne. Only by doing so could she stay by his side a little longer.…To help Willow improve her health, I made a point of waking her up ten minutes earlier than usual.Willow was still sleepy, but she still got out of bed.First, I had her walk a few hundred meters. Once she was fully awake, we started jogging together. When she got tired, we took breaks.After repeating this a few times, Willow was so exhausted she could barely breathe, let alone walk.She flopped down onto the grass, completely motionless.Knowing she was worn out, I carried her back to her room. Once she had washed up, I helped her take a bath.After putting on her clothes, Willow said solemnly, "It seems like getting healthier isn't something that can be achieved

For the first time, Zach despised his own foolishness. Why did he have to wait until now to realize how amazing Aralyn was?"Can you forgive me?" he pleaded.…Watching his heart-wrenching sobs, I was surprised to find my own heart completely calm. "Does it matter if I forgive you or not?"Zach's crying came to an abrupt halt, and he stared at me in shock."No matter who it is, before doing anything, they should think carefully about the consequences because some mistakes can never be undone." "But I'm just a kid…" Zach wiped his tears, panicking."Kids also need to take responsibility for their choices," I replied calmly.Zach tried hard to stifle his sobs, but he couldn't stop himself."Hopefully, after experiencing all this, you'll think more carefully before making decisions in the future," I uttered slowly."Okay." Zach nodded, still gasping for breath between his tears.I glanced over at Julian, who stood nearby. "Let's go."Julian nodded. "Alright."…Shayne leane

Shayne waited for Luna to respond, but when she didn't, his expression darkened slightly. He pressed further, "Did you hear me?""Yes," Luna replied half-heartedly, brushing him off.She had no interest in discussing anything related to Aralyn with Shayne, so she quickly changed the subject. "By the way, you have a gathering tonight. Don't forget to attend."The event was being hosted by one of his friends.Shayne hadn't been in the best of moods over the past few days. Thinking it might be a chance to relax and unwind with his friends, he smiled faintly."Are you coming?" he asked lightly.Luna shook her head and placed her hand over her stomach gently. "No. Going out and having too much fun might not be good for the baby, so you go by yourself."Shayne, considerate as always, said, "Make sure to take care of yourself."Luna shook her head and chuckled. "It's just for a little while. You don't need to worry about me that much."Even though she was only with Shayne for his mon

Amber followed Julian into the office, unable to contain her frustration.…"My son is here to work. What are you doing here?" She was clearly targeting me, as her tone was dripping with malice.I had just placed my laptop down when I heard Amber's voice. Looking up, I calmly replied, "Designing."Julian knew his mother was just looking for a way to vent her displeasure. He had to intervene. "Mom," Julian said firmly."What?" Amber asked in dissatisfaction. "I need to work now," Julian emphasized each word.Amber understood immediately—Julian was trying to get her to leave. She shot me a fierce glare before storming off.As she stepped out of Hughes Group, a thought suddenly struck her.There were plenty of empty offices in the company. Why did Julian insist on sharing one with Aralyn?Could he… have feelings for Aralyn?…I stared at the laptop screen before turning to look at Julian.From the day of my divorce until now, both Julian and Willow had taken great care of me

"Alice doesn't know much, but these manufacturers definitely do. If you contact them and ask for a list, do you think they'll help you?" I asked.Mark hesitated for a moment. If everyone took advantage of this trend and increased production, they could make more money.And the more people knew about it and discussed it, the longer the hype would last, and the more money everyone could earn.Of course, they would be willing to introduce their peers.Once Mark understood this, he excitedly said, "Got it! I'll contact them right away!""Okay." My tone finally relaxed.…Mark was dedicated to this job. He proactively reached out to the factory owners. After explaining the pros and cons to them, he asked them to introduce other factory owners to him.Each of them was enthusiastic. Within just a few dozen minutes, he had already gotten at least ten phone numbers.He called them one by one, explaining his needs.To ease their concerns, he mentioned his referrers and emphasized that

Aralyn had always been the one to soothe them, including Charlotte.Shayne had now come to realize that Charlotte wasn't as great as he had once imagined.It was just that, when Aralyn was by his side, she had been afraid of affecting his work. So, no matter how much trouble Charlotte caused, Aralyn always covered for her.Yet, he refused to cherish the woman who had cared so much for him.Shayne took a deep breath, suddenly feeling exhausted."What's there to think about?" Charlotte asked."In all the years Aralyn was with me, the money she spent didn't even add up to what you both spend in a month, or even a week. Wait, even a day," Shayne said coldly.Charlotte felt that Shayne had become stingy. "But you're supposed to spend the money you make.""My son and wife didn't get to spend it. It all went to you." Shayne's voice was filled with self-mockery.Charlotte was a little annoyed. What did he mean by that?She had worked so hard to raise Shayne. It was only right that he

"Other people don't know the truth, so I can understand if they blame me. But Shayne knows, yet he still blames me!" Charlotte said.Luna sighed. "Don't let others sow discord between you. As for Shayne, he's still dreaming about getting back together with Aralyn. He's probably still hoping to have more children with her."But Aralyn no longer had any interest in Shayne.Luna understood this very well. If she were married to a man like Julian—gentle, rich, handsome, and loving—she wouldn't even consider someone like Shayne.Sure, Shayne was somewhat good-looking, but he was also stingy and emotionally unavailable.The contrast was just too brutal.If Aralyn broke up with Julian and got back together with Shayne, Luna would seriously question whether Aralyn had a mental illness.Charlotte, of course, didn't think her son had done anything wrong. Hence, in her mind, Aralyn was the one at fault."Aralyn must have been secretly contacting Shayne! Otherwise, why would he still be th

"That's right," Julian said.It seemed Donald coming here wasn't entirely in vain. At the very least, he had helped Willow learn something.Julian was extremely pleased.When Donald heard that, his face grew darker, and he tried to explain, "I didn't…"Julian had no interest in listening. After years of navigating the business world, he could tell a person's intentions the moment they spoke.Not wanting to waste time on Donald's nonsense, Julian uttered, "It's late. My daughter needs to sleep. You should leave."Donald was forced to swallow all the words he wanted to say.He stared at Julian in a daze for a long time. But in the end, he could only leave.Once he disappeared from the living room, Julian asked, "Can you guess why he went through all this trouble?""What else could it be? He wants you to think I'm a terrible person and ruin our relationship."Julian's voice grew colder. "If he were only trying to sabotage our relationship, I might call him clever. But he even pu

Mom should have fought a fair and just lawsuit and demanded more money from them.Donald remained silent, unable to say a word."Besides, Mom had a job at the beginning. Even after you two got married, she rarely asked you for money."Honestly, I always felt that my personality was similar to Mom's.Both of us were highly independent."Even after you made Mom a housewife, you rarely gave her money. She spent almost entirely from her own savings. So, can you tell me the 'good things' you've done for me?"Donald hesitated for a long time before finally saying, "I admit, when I was with your mom, I really didn't treat her well. But you wouldn't even exist if it weren't for me. I'm your elder! Even if you ignore everything else, just the fact that I gave you life means you should respect me!"I laughed. "If Mom wasn't with you, she would have been with someone else. And I would still have been born just the same. You're not exactly irreplaceable."Donald stared at me for a long tim

Shayne showed no emotion, yet it struck Charlotte like a bolt of lightning.Charlotte's lips moved. After a long time, she finally said, "I never expected things to turn out this way.""Not expecting it means you can wash your hands of responsibility?" Shayne mocked coldly.Charlotte didn't know what to say."No, you can't. Zach won't forgive you, and neither will I. You should just focus on the baby in Luna's belly and live your life," Shayne added.Before he could hang up, Charlotte hurriedly said, "But didn't you already forgive us before?""The fact that you can still reach me by phone is proof that I don't hate you."Charlotte let out a sigh of relief upon hearing that."It's just that, for now, I can't forget that I will never be able to have another child for the rest of my life."Charlotte's mood grew heavier.…Donald rushed to Julian's house in the middle of the night.When Julian saw him come in, he was a little surprised.Just as he was about to ask what Donald

Sophia ate her snacks."Just like how Aralyn lost her baby, can you guarantee that this child will be born safe and sound?" Amber asked.Charlotte was momentarily speechless."If your son didn't get a vasectomy, he doesn't have to worry even if something happens to Luna's baby. He can still have children with other women. But once he gets a vasectomy, there's no hope at all."Charlotte's expression turned unpleasant.Amber went on, "If I were you, I wouldn't be running around right now. I'd stay home and guard this child.""Since you've disowned Zach, you wouldn't be angry if he changed his last name in the future, right?" Sophia asked.Charlotte blurted out without thinking, "He wouldn't dare!""He's not even part of your family anymore. Why would he be afraid of you?" Amber chuckled.Sophia nodded. "If I were him, I'd change my last name to my mom's."Amber looked at Sophia. "That makes sense."The two of them echoed each other's words, making Charlotte feel uneasy. She hu

Charlotte glanced at Sophia before finally speaking. "Do you know what happened to Aralyn before she divorced my son?"Amber shook her head. "No."Charlotte lowered her voice. "She was pregnant with my son's child, but she fell down the stairs."Shaking her head, she added, "They say she lost a lot of blood. At that time, Aralyn looked extremely miserable."Sophia's expression darkened even more. "So, you came to my house just to tell my mom how pitiful Aralyn was? In that case, you can leave now."In her opinion, Charlotte was inherently rude. Nothing good ever came out of her mouth.There was no need to deal with her. Sophia could just throw her out.Seeing Sophia about to drive her away, Charlotte quickly said, "Of course not! I just wanted to tell you both that Aralyn can't have children anymore! If you don't make Julian leave her, I can guarantee that your family will have no descendants in the future!"Amber paused.Even Sophia was stunned. In the eyes of the older gener

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have made enough money," I said.Yasmin sneered. "Do you think I believe you?""That's up to you." With that, I hung up.Yasmin stared at the phone screen, speechless.At that moment, Donald pushed the door open and walked in. "What did she just say to you?"Yasmin stared at Donald. "She said she can't be bothered to deal with you right now."Donald didn't mind at all. "She saw everything I did. It would be a problem if she could actually forgive me."Hearing that, Yasmin felt a bit less resentful. She asked, "What should we do next?"Donald spoke unhurriedly. "Do you know how Aralyn managed to marry Julian in the first place?"Yasmin shook her head. She spent all her time hanging out with friends, so she had no time to think about these things."Because of Julian's daughter, Willow," Donald replied.Yasmin looked at Donald."At first, it was because Willow wanted a mom, so Julian invited Aralyn to his home to be her mother. Later, as they spent time
