For an ordinary employee, this was indeed a great opportunity. However, Alice had money, but she dared not admit it. With tears streaming down her face, she muttered, "It's really great."Melody was even more puzzled. "Then why are you crying?""I'm happy," Alice said, feeling like she was drowning in a flood of tears. "Next month's paycheck will definitely be huge!"Melody's eyes lit up instantly. "Oh, that's true!"…Julian had just stepped out of the office when Avery, who was hiding nearby, pulled out her phone and called Luna. "Julian is leaving."She quickly added, "Aralyn isn't with him this time.""Alright. I'll go over immediately," Luna replied. She was waiting nearby.She added, "Oh, you need to come downstairs quickly. Later, take the opportunity to find a suitable angle and snap a suggestive photo of us together. Remember to send it to Aralyn once you're back."Avery laughed gleefully. "No problem."She hung up and quickly pressed the elevator button to go down.

"Your relationship with her will remain completely unaffected?"Luna stared at Julian's face as she continued, "Even if you genuinely don't mind, you can listen to what I have to say. Once you know the truth, and you're sure that you don't mind, then it's not too late to tell me to leave, right?"Julian stared at Luna upon hearing this.He had the sudden urge to know how exactly Luna managed to twist the truth so thoroughly. Why did Shayne always choose her unconditionally? Were her manipulation skills too good, so people were unable to resist her, or was it because Shayne was utterly useless?Julian decided to find out. He gestured for the driver to unlock the front passenger door. "Get in and talk."Luna had wanted to sit next to him. However, seeing how determined he was to keep his distance, she hid her unease behind a calm facade. She turned to Julian and said, "Do you know how little self-respect Aralyn had before she dated you?"Upon hearing that, Julian wondered if that

"Why don't you try it yourself then? I'll believe you if your child survives."Julian's face remained cold as he said, "Stop the car."The driver pulled the car over to the side of the road."You should get out now," Julian said disdainfully.Though Luna was reluctant to do so, she could sense that her attempt to sow discord today had failed. She dejectedly got out of the car.The driver closed the door. He then stepped on the gas and drove off without a second glance.Julian turned his head to look out the window. He had initially thought that Luna's manipulation skills would be unmatched. However, it was nothing special. Even so, Shayne still chose to believe her words. What did that say about him? It meant Shayne was a fool who didn't love Aralyn at all.It seemed that he had overestimated Shayne.Julian scoffed, hiding the disgust in his eyes.…Luna stood in place and stared as the car left.Didn't men mind if their women weren't clean? Why was Julian different?Sh

I took out my phone and pulled up the blocklist. "Now that Luna has Julian as such a powerful backer, she probably doesn't need to spend Shayne's money anymore, right?""That's between them!" Avery yelled as she rushed toward me, trying to grab my phone. "It's not your place to interfere."However, I easily dodged her.I smiled and said, "Your reaction is enough to prove that Julian and Luna's relationship isn't as smooth as you think. Otherwise, Luna would've already contacted Shayne herself to end things without me needing to lift a finger."Only then did Avery realize that I had probably never believed her attempts to stir up trouble. "When did you figure it out?""From the moment you showed me those photos." I wasn't dumb. I wouldn't fall for such petty tricks. "You're doing this to provoke me into misunderstanding Julian, right? In your plan, I'm supposed to feel deeply hurt. I'll then run to Julian and hysterically question why he betrayed me and chose Luna of all people

"When they ask you that question, you'll tell them your daughter pursued me in the past and that I hated her a lot, so much so that I canceled several projects with your family's company because of it."Danny pondered for a moment before asking, "Saying that will make them let their guard down?""That's right."Julian then slowly explained, "Those who think more meticulously might think that I've noticed flaws in the partnership proposal; that I've anticipated your company's imminent collapse and am looking to take advantage of the situation to carve up your assets. As such, I've decided to pretend that I've buried the hatchet while I extend you an olive branch"Julian continued casually, "They'll never suspect that we've already established a deeper partnership behind the scenes."Danny sighed in admiration. "Mr. Hughes, you've really thought this problem through."Julian wasn't interested in wasting time on unnecessary flattery. "Mr. York, there's no need for formalities. Also,

The manager looked serious as she huffed.…Julian returned not long after they left. He walked straight over to me, cupped my face in his hands, and kissed my lips.His dark eyes were filled with unconcealed love. "I missed you."I hugged him. "I missed you too."Both Julian and Shayne were successful entrepreneurs, yet Shayne had always been stingy with expressing his affection. Perhaps Shayne never loved me at all. That was why he detested telling me sweet words.However, Julian was different. He never hid his feelings.I had him sit beside me, then turned to look into his eyes. Concerned, I asked, "Are you tired?""Why are you being so formal all of a sudden?" Julian asked, a little unused to it. "What happened?"I decided to be honest. "Someone came by with pictures of you chatting in the car with Luna just now. Then, they showed me one of you letting her into the car to tattle on you. They said you didn't love me anymore and that you've fallen for Luna instead. So, why

The ones clearly at fault in this were Luna and Shayne. However, they made it seem like Aralyn was the one at fault. They each took turns complaining to Julian. He couldn't hide the coldness on his face.I realized there was something wrong with his mood, so I changed the topic. "However, Luna, as one of the main culprits, dared to come running to you to spread rumors?"Julian's voice was gentle as he replied, "I told her I was the one who sent you to the hospital when you fell. Yet, she said the baby was fine after you fell down the stairs. That would be miraculous. "Anyway, I don't believe her. If she wants to prove her claim, she'll have to throw herself down the stairs to prove it to me."His voice carried a dangerous edge.After some thought, I decided to tell him my thoughts. "The child in Luna's belly must stay."Julian was at a loss. "Why? She was the one who killed the child in your belly. Do you not want to avenge your child?" I replied seriously, "Her baby has to be

Whenever there were conflicts, Shayne would always give me the silent treatment no matter whose fault it was. In the end, I would always be the one who apologized.Over time, I forgot what normal interactions between people were supposed to look like.Now, hearing Julian explain it, I suddenly realized that if two people wanted to live a good life together, they had to face problems as a team.I smiled and said, "I got it.""Should I head to my meeting now?" Julian asked reluctantly."Work is important," I said, looking him in the eyes. "Go ahead."Julian left reluctantly.With some rare free time on my hands, I opened the comments section on my account. After taking a glance, I immediately noticed someone stirring up trouble again.It was probably Luna.She had failed to ruin my reputation and had failed to seduce Julian. As such, she was most likely furious. It was definitely because the more she thought about it, the angrier she became after she got home. However, she had

"They'll bring that woman and her child into the house, then ask me if she and Daddy make a good match," Mason said.The more Mason spoke, the angrier he got. His cheeks puffed up unconsciously. "They want to set Daddy up with her and hope I'll help them, right? If I refuse, they'll just say I'm not as sensible as her son."Shayne felt that talking to a child about these things seemed pretty inappropriate..But then again, would anyone really be that outrageous?Just then, Mason's phone rang again.He answered and asked, "Do you need something?""Yes!" the two elders replied in unison."Your daddy hasn't been in touch with us lately. Do you know where he is?""No," Mason replied without hesitation.Even if he did know, he wouldn't tell them."When Mommy and I moved out, you said you hoped we would never come back and that you wouldn't contact us. What's going on today? Having regrets?"Mason hadn't planned to speak so harshly.But he really didn't want to have too much cont

Mason sat in the car, looking out the window. After a long time, he finally mustered the courage to turn back and look at Shayne. "Will you still get angry with Mommy in the future?"Shayne didn't understand why Mason suddenly brought this up, but he still answered politely, "I've never been angry with your mommy."Mason was confused. "Then why haven't you come to see us for so long?"Shayne casually made up an excuse. "Because I've been busy with work.""Oh, okay."Realizing he had misunderstood Shayne, Zach quickly apologized, "Sorry.""If I do have conflicts with your mommy in the future, what would you do?" Shayne asked."I wouldn't bother with you. Mommy treats me well," Mason said seriously."When I was very little, I always knew that Mommy really loved money. She always put money first, so when she and my daddy got divorced, I thought she wouldn't want me because raising me is really expensive."Mason's voice carried a trace of sadness. "But Mommy still chose to take me

Willow felt she had once again become the happiest child in the world, and her lips curled into a smile.Julian got up and followed behind us.After washing up, Willow pulled us along for a morning run. When we finished, we took a shower and had breakfast together.The food prepared by the chef at home suited our tastes perfectly.Willow ate in big bites, then started drinking her milk.Finally, Julian and I took her to school together.…Mason woke up in the morning.When he walked into the living room and saw Shayne still there, he didn't show any displeasure. Instead, he smiled brightly. "Dad, you really stayed!"Shayne felt deeply gratified. "That's right.""Take me to school today," Mason said eagerly."Most of my classmates have their parents drop them off, but I… It's always the driver who takes me to school. If this keeps up, they'll think I don't have parents."The more he spoke, the quieter his voice became. And by the end, he sounded pitiful.Shayne couldn't hel

Shayne was unwilling to give up and wanted to talk more. But whenever he tried, Aralyn would find an excuse to leave.Bitterness filled Shayne.He persisted day after day, treating Aralyn well bit by bit. After a long time, Aralyn was finally moved.She finally agreed to date him.But what happened after that?As their relationship deepened, he should have normally fallen in love with Aralyn and naturally stepped into marriage with her.But there was no such memory in Shayne's mind.Their relationship suddenly took a strange turn—Aralyn was the one pursuing him, while he was always avoiding her.Shayne frowned, seriously trying to recall what had happened.It was probably the day before he decided to forget about Luna and sincerely start a life with Aralyn when Luna called him.She said she was living a hard life and wanted to come back and reconcile with him.The smile on Shayne's face gradually turned bitter.At that time, Rowan was still incredibly wealthy. His family sh

The living room was spacious and bright.The food on the dining table was already cold.Even the candles had burned down completely.Aralyn sat quietly at the table. It was only when she heard his footsteps that she lifted her head and looked at him."Didn't you say you would come back to celebrate our anniversary with me? Why are you only back now?" she questioned.It was only then that Shayne realized he hadn't even told Aralyn where he had been.He quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, honey. Something came up at work; I was swamped. I couldn't come back and be with you. I'm really sorry."At the time, Shayne had still been serious about maintaining this family.Aralyn stared straight at him, her eyes carrying a calmness as if she saw through everything. "Are you sure you were working? You know I don't like being lied to. If you're lying, you know what happens."For some reason, Shayne had suddenly chickened out. "I went to pick up a friend."Aralyn didn't show whether she belie

In the past, I would never have dared to imagine that a plush doll I casually designed could turn out so well."Wait a minute."A thought suddenly struck me, and I stared at Julian.Julian didn't understand why I had such an expression on my face."Since the animation can release an entire series of products, then can't my plush dolls also be made into smaller versions? Or maybe I could launch a whole line of merchandise like mugs, keychains, and so on?"Julian hadn't considered this before, but after hearing what I said, he replied, "That could work.""I'll tell Mark right away!" I exclaimed excitedly, about to sit up and grab my phone. But when I glanced at the time, I realized it was too late.Although Mark was dedicated to his work, it didn't seem right to bring this up so late at night.I had no choice but to suppress my excitement and lie back down. "I'll tell him tomorrow."Julian looked at me with deep affection. "Alright."He raised his hand and stroked my hair. "Ara

Did he have to tell Luna that he wouldn't separate from her and Mason in the future?No.Shayne had already decided he loved Aralyn. He couldn't waver anymore.Remaining silent for a long time, Shayne said, "You're right."Luna hadn't expected Shayne to respond like this. She was momentarily stunned and immediately sat up, staring at him in disbelief."So, should I still take him out tomorrow?" Shayne asked.Luna finally realized that all her previous tactics were useless against Shayne now. "Go ahead, or you'll disappoint him since you've already promised him."Shayne didn't refuse. "Alright."Luna helped Shayne find some clothes and then led him to the master bedroom. "Are you planning to sleep in the same room as me tonight, or…"Shayne shook his head. "I'll stay by myself. If Aralyn finds out, she'll definitely be upset."This was exactly what Luna wanted to hear; she didn't want to sleep with him either."Then, I'll sleep in the guest bedroom tonight. Get some rest."W

"You were by Mason's side, and you treated him well. He was happy."Luna lowered her eyes, her gaze incredibly gentle. "He thinks you're the best dad in the world."Shayne suddenly felt a bit guilty.He hadn't been a good husband and father."But I wasn't good to him," he replied softly.Luna felt it was time for Shayne to bond with Mason. "He doesn't think so. Why don't I call him over? You can ask him."Shayne thought that was a good idea. Kids understood other kids' feelings best. "Then I'll trouble you with that.""Alright." Luna got up and walked forward while holding her belly.Shayne sat where he was, feeling a bit anxious.Luna walked to Mason's bedroom door and knocked. "Mason, Dad's here!"Upon hearing that, Mason was thrilled and rushed out of his room. But when he saw Shayne not far away, his expression froze. Then, he turned to look at Luna.He had thought his biological dad was here.Luna patted Mason's back gently.Mason instantly understood what Luna meant

Thinking it was Yasmin again, Luna grew a bit annoyed. But she still forced a smile. "Why are you here again?"Shayne narrowed his eyes instinctively. "Again? Was someone else here just now?""Yasmin." Luna stepped aside to let Shayne in. Her belly was already quite large, and she had to support her waist while walking."She said she wants to pursue Julian and asked me for some advice."After saying that, she realized her tone toward Shayne had been a bit cold.Hence, she softened her voice and asked, "What are you doing here?""I want to ask you some questions about kids," Shayne answered."Kids? I know a lot about kids." Luna placed her hand on her belly, stroking it gently.As she spoke, she pulled Shayne's arm, making him sit beside her. "But before you ask me anything, come and listen first. Our baby should have a heartbeat by now."Shayne no longer felt love for Luna, but he couldn't deny that he still cared a lot about the baby.It was his baby, after all.He pressed
