A Heart Reclaimed: The Love I Deserve Chapter 270
"It's because I want to help you convince Aralyn," Luna said, painting herself in a good light. "I want to chat with her and see if she's willing to reconcile with you."Shayne didn't deny her. "Alright, I'll arrange a meeting with Julian."Luna felt even more disdain. He actually agreed. How heartless.Fortunately, she had never cared about Shayne as a person; she was only interested in his money. She had also gotten what she wanted."I'll wait for the good news," she replied."Alright."…Shayne contacted Julian's secretary but was informed that Julian had been extremely busy lately. He wouldn't have time to meet him.Listening to Mark's polite tone, Shayne responded calmly, "That's fine. Just schedule it for later. I'm not in a hurry."Mark asked, "Would you like me to contact you when Mr. Hughes becomes available?""Yes."Mark hung up the phone without hesitation upon receiving Shayne's response.Shayne hesitated for some time before he relayed to Luna that Julian didn'

When Shayne saw me, he hurried over and asked, "Why didn't you accept the flowers I sent you? Can you tell me the reason?"I thought I had made myself clear in our previous conversations, so I didn't expect him to shamelessly approach me.I replied impatiently, "No sane person would get back together with their ex. Shayne, the fact that I chose to divorce you means I will never reconcile with you. Besides, it's over between us. What's the point of sending me flowers now?"I looked at him and said slowly, "Since your dream has come true, and you've gotten together with Luna, then shouldn't you cherish her? Otherwise, you'll definitely regret it again if you lose her.""I know you're saying this for my sake, but believe me, I definitely won't regret it this time," Shayne quickly explained.I truly didn't know how to respond.After a long silence, I finally said, "But your persistence is very irritating. If you feel even the slightest bit of guilt toward me, then I hope you'll act a

"I don't know," I answered truthfully. "But it doesn't really matter. Julian, during those six years I was with him, he never truly treated me well. This year, it got even worse. He hurt me more than ever. "Now that I've finally managed to escape him, he suddenly claims to love me." I asked casually, "But a love like that? I don't need it anymore."Julian nodded. "That's true. If someone wants to make up for the hurt they've caused, the best way is…" He paused, then said, "To be good to her from the very beginning."I couldn't agree more. That day, Julian took me to a barbecue restaurant. He knew I wasn't in the best mood and needed a little release. He ordered two sets of meat. One spicy and one mild. I was a little surprised.Noticing my reaction, Julian smiled and explained, "I can't handle very spicy food, but I can take a little heat to keep you company."I laughed at his words. "Well, thank you, then.""You're welcome," he replied casually.He handed me the menu and waite

Julian was enjoying his lunch with a bearing of elegance.By the time we wrapped up, I was stuffed. Back at the office, I collapsed onto the couch, phone in hand, scrolling through the sales numbers for my merch. The sales for the plushies were climbing steadily, day by day. Other items were doing just as well. From zero orders, they had now grown into the hundreds.That was just from one platform. Curious, I checked the numbers on another platform and found the same results. They all had fantastic sales. It really was true. Hard work always paid off.Patting my full stomach, I waited until I felt less bloated before diving back into coloring my sketches. Time slipped by until Julian reminded me it was time to pick up Willow. Only then did I set my work aside.Heading downstairs, I stepped outside and saw that Shayne wasn't there. Relief washed over me as I climbed into the car.When we arrived at the kindergarten, we waited a couple more minutes before Willow appeared at the scho

How could a biological mother be so heartless as to abandon her own son? And Zach… He also thought it was understandable that Aralyn no longer cared about him.Noah looked at Lewis curiously. The two of them didn't dare to continue asking after all because Zach was so sad at the moment.After all, Zach was merely a child. His ability to endure pain was not strong. What if they asked, and Zach couldn't bear it and did something stupid? What should they do then?…Zach arrived near Julian's villa and was surprised to find that Shayne's car was parked not far away.Rather than immediately going to greet Shayne, he remained in his car and watched as Aralyn went for a run. This was their routine every day when they returned home.Despite this, Zach never seemed to tire of watching it. He was so fixated that he couldn't bring himself to even blink. Eventually, they finished their exercise and went back into the house.Finally, Zach tore his eyes away reluctantly. He proceeded to open

Charlotte said with a smile on her face. "Looks like our last chat didn't quite hit the mark. So, here I am, ready to pick up where we left off."Luna easily sensed the hostility in Charlotte's words. "Had you told me this a few days earlier, I may have been more inclined to listen. But… Shayne has already made it clear that he no longer wants me."Luna had already stated that she planned to end things with Shayne, so she had no reason to push aside her self-worth. "He's trying to reconcile with Aralyn."Without hesitation, Charlotte retorted, "Impossible!"Luna's expression held a faint smile as she spoke. "Your son was the one who told me about this. If you don’t believe it, you can always call Shayne and confirm with him."With that, she turned around and headed back into the house. Charlotte stood still, lost in thought, before pulling out her phone and dialing Shayne's number. "Luna mentioned that you want to marry Aralyn again?"He didn't know how to respond to her mother

I didn't bother to hide it. "My ex-mother-in-law called me out of the blue to say that she has no respect for me."She reminded me to not even think about remarrying her son."Lilia found it hard to believe. "You're already divorced, and she still says these things to you? Doesn't she realize how ridiculous she sounds?""Who knows?" I shrugged. "Maybe she thinks I have a good temper and won't get angry…"I slowed down my speech. "That's why she came to me to throw her weight around and play the role of an elder."Lilia frowned. "His family is completely unreasonable. How did you put up with them?""Hmm…" I also found the question puzzling. "Perhaps it was because I loved Shayne too much at that moment. I thought that as long as I could be with him, it didn't matter even if I had to endure a little hardship."If I just bear with it, everything would get better."But then, I stopped loving Shayne."I can't be bothered to think about it anymore. I just want to keep my distance fr

Ever since Willow was able to speak normally with her grandparents and Pamela, she stopped speaking to the mirror.The rest of her time was dedicated to reading.After everything was said and done, it was just about time for bed.Once Willow was asleep, I quietly slipped out of her bedroom.When Julian saw me walk out, he made his way toward the balcony.I knew he must've had something to say to me, so I followed him.The balcony lights were on.Everything in the distance was shrouded by night which added a touch of mystery.I sat in the chair to enjoy the rare moment of peace.Julian sat down next to me. Since drinking coffee late at night could disrupt sleep, he had switched to plain water.His voice sounded cold. "Were you living a particularly miserable life before you divorced Shayne?"It was odd. Despite the lack of emotion in his tone, there was a sense of concern and worry in his words.I carefully chose my words. "At that time, I always thought that a married coupl

Julian chuckled. "Reminds me of when Alice used to pester me every day."As his words fell, Alice said, "What are you two saying about me?"Her father had been invited to the banquet today. To broaden her horizons, he decided to bring her along.Alice had initially thought the event would be boring, but as soon as she arrived, she spotted Aralyn.She ran over and heard Julian mention her name before she could even greet them.Alice's intuition told her that Julian wasn't saying anything good about her.Though caught in the act, Julian didn't seem embarrassed. "Just using you as an example."Alice glared at Julian in dissatisfaction.Julian slowed his pace.When Alice eventually went off to find her father, he continued nonchalantly, "Back then, I felt the same way you do now. But I also understood one thing—if you don't find a way to resolve this issue, Shayne will keep bothering you."I really didn't want to deal with Shayne more than necessary. "Do you have any solution?"

I had just finished my morning tasks and was planning to take a short break when a group of people burst into the office.They walked up to me and turned to Julian, asking, "Mr. Hughes, is it her?"Julian nodded. "Yes.""What are they here for?" I asked in confusion."Didn't you agree to accompany me to a banquet this afternoon? They're here to style you," Julian explained, walking over to me.As soon as he finished speaking, a young woman stood in front of me. "Close your eyes," she said.Then, they began applying makeup to my face, brushing over my skin with soft brushes. Someone was also working on my hair behind me.Bored, I sat there quietly and made a mental note to avoid attending banquets in the future. Otherwise, I'd waste so much time every day like this.It was such a hindrance to making money.When the makeup was done, someone said gently, "Wake up."I opened my eyes.Before I knew it, someone handed me a dress and urged, "Hurry up and change."In a daze, I walk

Mark listened to Julian and immediately pinpointed the issue. "Could she be giving up on Shayne and trying to pursue you instead?"Julian frowned. "What?""You're better looking than Shayne, wealthier, and most importantly, you're a better person. She's about to be abandoned. Thinking about finding a better man isn't unreasonable, right?"Julian raised a finger and lightly tapped the table.Mark continued, "Otherwise, why else would she put on an act in front of Aralyn?"As Julian realized this, his expression turned colder. He immediately called Shayne.When Shayne picked up the call, he instinctively thought it was about work. "Mr. Hughes, are you calling to discuss our collaboration?""No. I just wanted you to tell Luna that I'm not interested in her."…Shayne stared at his phone. There could only be one reason why Julian was suddenly calling him about Luna—Luna had gone to Hughes Group to find Julian.And perhaps, she had even hinted at being interested in Julian.Other

I took a deep breath. "I've made my reasons clear! Luna, just because you're sick enough to love being a homewrecker and seduce married men doesn't mean everyone else is like you. Understand?"Tears welled up in Luna's eyes.Seeing her like this reminded me of when I returned home after my miscarriage.Even though it was her and her family who hurt me, her pitiful expression somehow made everything seem as though it was my fault.I took another deep breath."People say you're gentle and easy to talk to. But why are you so horrible to me? Is your gentleness only an act? Are you actually a fake?""So what if I am? I don't care why you're suddenly here, but let me make one thing clear—if you keep showing up in front of me, I'll post everything you've done online."Luna's tears began falling as if she were the victim.I continued, "That way, everyone will know about all the horrible things you did!"Her voice quivered slightly. "But I'm here to make peace with you. You're so cruel

"How do you feel about it?"I had been in shock just moments ago, but now I was starting to recover. "I used to think that even if a lot of money was spent promoting my work, it would be turned into physical books for sale at most. I never imagined that a comic could actually come to life."This experience made me feel delighted.Julian chuckled. "This is just the beginning."I nodded. "So, I'm really looking forward to it."As the two of us were talking, someone knocked on the door. Julian assumed it was an employee looking for him.Suppressing his smile, he said coldly, "Come in."The office door was pushed open, and Luna strode in.She glanced around, finding no one else present before walking to the desk area.Julian frowned.She was neither an employee nor a business partner of anyone in the company. How did she even get into the building?Julian suppressed the annoyance rising in his heart. Remembering what Alice and Mark said, he decided to take this opportunity to st

I looked at him."Just last night, it got two to three hundred thousand views! With the animation bringing in traffic, your followers on all platforms will likely grow rapidly and dramatically!" Mark exclaimed.After that, he urged me, "Take a look at the animation first and see if it meets your expectations."Hearing that, I opened the video platform and clicked on the animation. The voice actress for Willow had a tone completely different from Willow's, yet strangely, her way of speaking felt exactly the same.Even the voice actors for Julian and me had the same effect.I was a bit stunned.How did they manage that?When the video began, I felt that the storyline looked exactly like my comic. But once the characters started moving, it felt as if they had come to life.As the plot progressed, memories of the day I left Shayne's house suddenly came to mind.At that time, I thought I had lost everything. I assumed life would be hard for a while before it slowly improved.But

Pamela was puzzled. "You suddenly look so serious.""I just think Zach is working so hard, so I definitely can't lose to him!" Willow responded solemnly."Why do you need to compete with him?""Because he's the hardest-working student in our class," Willow replied unhesitatingly.Pamela felt something was off about what Willow said, but she couldn't pinpoint it.After thinking for a while, she said, "Then I'll learn from you both."Willow lifted her chin. "No problem! To make sure you don't slack off, I've decided to supervise you personally!"…At the company, I saw Amber standing at the door of the office and asked Julian, "Is she here for you? I'll go somewhere else, then. I don't want to interrupt you."Before Julian could respond, Amber had already spoken. "No, I'm here to see you! Aralyn, I've spent the past few days reflecting on my behavior, and I've realized it's my overthinking that led to me misunderstanding you."That's why I kept finding faults with you and alway

He shouldn't rush.Winning over Aralyn was even harder than he imagined, so he needed to slow himself down. After all, Aralyn was bound to end up with him.Julian's eyes reflected a strong desire to get Aralyn, but he suppressed it all too well.Julian's phone rang. He accepted the call and asked casually, "What is it?"Not knowing how to start, Amber hesitated and stumbled over her words for quite some time."I'm busy," Julian said.Though reluctantly, Amber finally spoke. "I've been thinking a lot these past few days, and I finally figured it out. Julian, you're an adult. As your mother, I really shouldn't have interfered in your life too much."Julian raised an eyebrow. "Did Sophia have a talk with you?""How did you know?" Amber asked in surprise."Though her work capabilities are average, she's always been open-minded. In this family, I think she's the only one who can persuade you."Amber laughed awkwardly but didn't deny his words. Julian continued, "If you want me t

Shayne's face darkened when he heard the iciness of Zach's sarcasm."You're still so young. How mature could you possibly be?""I know most of the things I need to know," replied Zach."You can't even earn your own money! No matter what, I'm the one who's covering your expenses," Shayne uttered, trying to reason with Zach. He wanted to use this to make Zach realize that he was still just a child.But instead, Zach asked, "Are you saying you don't want to give me money anymore?"Shayne didn't deny it. "If you let Noah bring you back, I'll continue to cover your expenses. But if you keep acting this way, I won't take care of you anymore! I won't spend my money on you any longer!""Alright, then. You can save your money and spend it on whoever you want," Zach responded coolly.After saying that, he hung up the phone.Shayne stared at his phone blankly.Zach set his phone aside, then went to his wardrobe and opened a hidden compartment.Inside were several bankbooks and a few p
