Julian replied instantly, "Just tell her that maybe it's because Aralyn doesn't like talking bad about others behind their backs as much as she does."Rowan thought for a moment and copied the message, tweaking it for a bit before sending it to Luna.Luna went silent for a long time, so long that Rowan thought she wouldn't reply.But Luna's enthusiasm eventually shattered Rowan's assumptions. "Putting everything else aside, Aralyn must've been really embarrassed earlier, right?"Rowan scrolled through his chat history with Luna.He had always been the one to initiate conversations with her.If he said something wrong, Luna would get upset and ignore him.Never once did Luna make the first move to chat with him, except for today.For the first time, Rowan felt like a ridiculous and laughable clown.Luna kept messaging. "If the same situation happened to me, I would definitely handle it perfectly. I'd never lose control of my emotions and make you look bad like Aralyn did."Eve

"What is it, Mom?" Shayne answered the phone casually."I'm at the police station. Come pick me up," Charlotte said awkwardly.Shayne asked incredulously, "What are you doing at the police station?"Talking about this topic made Charlotte want to vent about Aralyn, but she knew there were some things she couldn't say at the station."I'll tell you on the way back.""Alright."…Shayne wasn't busy. After hanging up, he put down his work and drove straight to the police station."She's getting older and may not think things through. As her son, you need to remind her more often that she can't do this. "Since you've divorced your ex-wife, your mother shouldn't be bothering her anymore, understand? We usually wouldn't intervene if she visited your ex-wife, but the things she said are truly awful," the officer uttered while shaking his head."Got it! I'll make sure it doesn't happen again," Shayne responded cooperatively.Only then did the police release Charlotte.Charlotte jo

"I'm her former mother-in-law," Charlotte responded without hesitation.Shayne chuckled. "Then she has nothing to do with you. Why should she tolerate you?""But you're her ex-husband. She used to love you so much. You were more important than her own life back then," Charlotte retorted matter-of-factly.Every word she said was like a needle stabbing into Shayne's heart, making him feel unbearable pain.Yes, Aralyn married him not long after graduating.Back then, she was so innocent, thinking that marrying for love made her the happiest woman in the world. Her whole world revolved around him.But what happened later? Shayne betrayed her love. He deserved the consequences he faced now."Even if you're divorced, she should still care about you and consider your well-being," Charlotte continued.Shayne's voice sounded a bit desolate. "But she doesn't love me anymore, Mom. She has a new boyfriend now, someone much better than me."Shayne found it incredibly difficult to speak. "S

Julian sat down beside me. "What are you thinking about?"I looked at Julian. "Remember a while back, I told you that I wanted to draw a romance comic while I had the time?""Yeah?" Julian said, draping his arm around my shoulders.I felt a bit troubled. "Well, the comic is done now, but I don't have an extra account to post it."Hearing this, Julian finally understood what I meant. "So?"I stared at Julian. "I want to use your phone number to register accounts on various platforms and post the comic. But if you think this might damage your reputation, then forget it.""It won't," Julian said as he pulled out his phone and handed it to me. "Here, you do it yourself."I stared at the phone in front of me, stunned. "You're giving it to me just like that?"Logically, as a high-ranking CEO, his phone should contain countless private and confidential secrets.Julian chuckled and ruffled my hair. "What else would I do? You're my girlfriend and the woman I truly want to spend my life

"Don't worry. I won't regret it," I said seriously.…Maisy agreed to move into Zach's house to take care of him. She packed up her belongings early and was just about to call a car to help her move when she heard a knock on the door.Maisy opened the door, seeing Noah outside."Zach asked me to come and help you get your stuff," Noah said politely."Thank you so much. I was just thinking about what kind of car I'd need to get for all this stuff," Maisy said, relieved.Noah smiled. "Leave it to me."Maisy didn't have much to bring—almost everything was clothes.As for larger items, she didn't bring any. Zach's house already had everything. Bringing more would only take up space.Noah placed her suitcases in the trunk of the car and got into the driver's seat. Letting out a sigh, he said, "Zach's had it tough. He's only five years old, yet his dad doesn't want him anymore."When Maisy heard about what her grandson had gone through, she couldn't help but tear up."Exactly, I

Aralyn was the one who stayed by his side, silently supporting him and helping him achieve his success today.And what did he do in return?As soon as he made some money and his first love returned to the country, his mind was filled with nothing but Luna.Maisy looked down on him for it, though she didn't show it.Shayne quickly apologized, "Mom, I know I was wrong."Maisy, being an experienced and worldly woman, could easily detect the perfunctory tone in Shayne's words. "Hmph! Do you?" "Yes." Shayne nodded earnestly."I don't think so. If you truly regretted it, you wouldn't be sticking to Luna every day while ignoring your own son," Maisy said coldly.Shayne argued, "But have you ever considered why I'm doing this?"Maisy's dislike for him deepened when he tried making excuses. "No matter the reason, ignoring a child who can't take care of himself just proves that you're a scumbag. As for your relationships, I won't comment much."Previously, whenever Aralyn came to see

Shayne found Maisy's words laughable.He had originally planned just to teach Zach a lesson by waiting for him to run out of money and realize his mistake. Then, he would forgive Zach and continue to provide for him.But after Maisy's outburst, he felt as if he didn't want to care about Zach at all in the future."You said it yourself," Shayne said.Maisy nodded. "Yes."Zach still had money, anyway. It was enough for him to last a lifetime. That was why Maisy was confident to say such harsh words.Seeing this, Shayne picked up his phone and pointed at himself to start recording the video.Once he finished, he sent it to Maisy. "I hope you never regret this."Maisy checked the video. Upon confirming there were no issues with it, she breathed a sigh of relief. "Don't worry. I'll never regret it."The only regret she had was not supporting Aralyn when the latter had come home saying she wanted a divorce.It was at this moment that Maisy realized if Aralyn hadn't divorced Shayne

"She used to think that a woman always needed a man no matter what, so she kept hoping I'd reconcile with Shayne and live a good life with him. But after talking to Shayne, she realized that Shayne and his family weren't good people. And now, she supports my choice to have divorced Shayne.""That's great. It saves you from being unhappy in the future," Julian said.I sighed. "Yes. I have to work even harder to make money now!"Julian had originally come over to spend some time with me. But I dove back into work, and he watched my focused and determined demeanor with warmth and amusement.Just then, someone knocked on the door.Julian looked up. "Come in."Mark walked in and approached Julian, reporting on the progress of the comic, "Regarding the physical book, I've already reached an agreement with the publisher. It's expected to be published in just a few months.""That fast?" I asked, surprised.Mark smiled. "Yes. Since the market for the physical book hasn't been doing well

Joseph said fearlessly, "Anyway, I've said that I won't go to work, so I won't do so!"Lucas took a deep breath. "Alright! You said it yourself. Just don't regret it in the future!"Joseph shrugged nonchalantly. "Of course."Lucas called his secretary in front of Joseph and instructed him to not transfer Joseph a single cent from this month onward. He then blocked Joseph's number.Since Joseph refused to listen, then he had to use this opportunity as a father to teach him a lesson.Lucas said casually, "Remember, you chose this path.""Yeah," replied Joseph. He stood up and left.…When Shayne reached the office, his mind was filled with thoughts of Aralyn. He walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and silently gazed into the distance.For some reason, ever since she left him, she seemed to look better with each passing day. When he went to seek her out a few days ago, the furrow of her brows showed a hint of sadness. However, that had been replaced by ease and joy today.It w

Lucas asked irritably, "What? Did you call just to mock me and kick me while I'm down?""Of course not." Danny's temper was very good. Although Lucas was already losing his temper at him, he still said with a smile, "Didn't you invest a lot of money in the project we worked on together? Although you said you didn't want that money back in the past, I still think it's better to return it to you."Danny repeated what Julian had suggested but in his own way. "It's not a lot of money, so it might not help you much. However, it's the best I can do within my capabilities."Lucas asked seriously, "Did Mr. Hughes teach you this?"Danny was in disbelief. "How did you know?""Because I know you..." Lucas said awkwardly. "You'd be thrilled to see me struggling and would happily watch from the sidelines."Danny didn't deny it. Lucas continued, "Tell Mr. Hughes that I appreciate it and thank you."Before Danny could respond, Lucas had already hung up....Lucas sat on the couch and loo

Once Lucas said that, he felt a little hesitant, worried that Julian might reject him.Julian's voice was frigid. "I don't think this has anything to do with feelings. Instead, you tried to collaborate with others, got rejected, and then thought of how you worked with me for many years, right?"Lucas tried to flatter him. "So, Mr. Hughes, would you still be willing to give me another chance?""We signed a contract with a new company yesterday," Julian replied tactfully.Lucas said, "It wouldn't be right to cancel your new agreement just for us…" His face turned pale as a sheet.Julian showed no regard for their past relationship. "Yeah."Lucas replied awkwardly. "I'll think of another solution, then."With that, he hung up immediately.Upon hearing the end tone from his phone, Julian remained quiet for a moment before dialing Danny's number.Danny sounded surprised. "Mr. Hughes?" Julian got straight to the point. "Are you aware of the Wilson family's current situation?""

Alice couldn't understand Joseph's mindset. I asked tentatively, "Could it be that he thinks that his family will help him resolve it no matter what kind of trouble he causes? Is that why he's so fearless?"Alice nodded as she spoke, "That's possible."I laughed and said, "He just didn't expect that his family couldn't even protect themselves this time, and the only project that could have saved them was handed over to your family."Upon hearing my words, Alice couldn't help but cover her mouth to stifle her laughter. "If I were his family, I'd regret it immensely."I replied cheerfully, "Unfortunately, it's too late to regret it now."Alice grinned, flashing her teeth. She was about to continue the conversation when her phone alarm suddenly went off. She scrambled to her feet. "Time for work!"I stood up and reminded her, "Work hard."She agreed to do so as she rushed out.…Lucas sat in his office, leisurely listening to his secretary report the latest updates.The secret

Julian merely stared at me. He looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated to speak."What do you want to say to me?" I asked."Aren't you jealous?" he replied.I was even more confused. "Jealous of what?"Julian hesitated before saying, "If I'm going to mentor Serena properly, I'll interact with her more.""I trust you, and I trust her too," I said firmly. "Since you've chosen me, you won't suddenly fall for someone else. Besides, she doesn't even trust her own family, only herself. She's even less likely to believe a man can change her fate, so I don't think she'll fall in love with you."Hearing my answer, Julian still seemed a bit dissatisfied. "But I want to see you get jealous."I laughed and played along. "If I see you getting close to another woman... I might feel a little uncomfortable."Julian's gaze softened as he looked at me. "But the one I love is you."I was surprised.Julian stroked my hair gently. "I'm heading back to work now.""Okay."…I was

Mark continued, "The solution her family came up with was to marry her off. They would then ask for money from her husband to treat her mother. She does want her mother to get better, but she doesn't want to sell herself. "She heard that our company was recruiting employees for overseas training and there would be a high allowance. As such, she volunteered."Mark didn't have the chance to share this earlier. Besides, when Serena was present, he felt it was inappropriate to discuss it in front of her. He thus waited until now to fill us in.He continued, "As for the allowance, the company has already disbursed it to her. She used it to pay the hospital fees for her mother and then lied to her family, saying it was money from her fiance. However, said fiance wanted her to move in with him immediately."She wanted to test her family's reaction. In the end, they told her to go and not upset him. When she saw that her family didn't care about her situation and showed no concern for her

Mark continued, "Ever since I found out how much money foreign markets make from merchandise every year, I started researching the types of merchandise they offer and how they operate and generate profits. "In the end, I discovered that their product range is more extensive than ours. Unlike us… We mostly produce flashy but impractical knickknacks, but they even have everyday items. So, since they have such advanced experience, there's no need for us to reinvent the wheel."My plan is to send someone from our company abroad to learn. That way, when they return, we can expand our merchandise to include more everyday items. That way, we can have higher sales and make more money. What do you think?"Julian didn't expect Mark to be working so hard in private. He looked at Mark and said sincerely, "That's a good idea, but I'm not the person concerned."He then looked at me and asked, "What do you think?""You're both doing this to help me earn more money," I said. Since working with J

Mark answered methodically, "Didn't we completely retract our collaboration with the Wilson family a few days ago?"Julian nodded. "That's right."Mark handed a folder to Julian. "I reached out to a new company to collaborate with. I had just contacted them, and they pulled me into their factory to show me their latest products. They also mentioned that they've just made a breakthrough in their technology. "However, the companies they're currently working with can't handle such large orders. They were still worrying about finding a market for their products during their meeting a few days ago. In the end, we extended an olive branch to cooperate." Julian accepted the folder and opened it. "Have you tested their new products? How do they compare to the Wilson family's products?"Mark was full of praise. "So much better, Mr. Hughes..."He then praised their product immensely.Julian skimmed through the product brochure. Mark continued, "These past few days, I've been thankfu

Pamela heard Willow's voice. She turned around and immediately ran to her upon seeing her.They held hands, happily chatting for a while before heading into school fully satisfied.…I sat in the car and watched the two of them. I couldn't help but feel happy.Pamela was Willow's only friend. If it was possible, I hoped their friendship could last a long time.The two girls walked into their classroom.I looked away and happened to catch sight of Shayne who was nearby. This caused my expression to darken uncontrollably.Julian was seated beside me. He noticed the change in my expression and asked, "Did you see him?""Yeah," I replied calmly. "Didn't he already abandon Zach? Why is he here at the kindergarten?"Julian speculated casually, "Maybe he wants to mend his relationship with Zach?"I shook my head. "He and his mother prioritize Luna, and not long ago, they were obviously preparing to give up on Zach. I had assumed he would treat the child Luna is carrying as his futur
