"She probably also tried to cause trouble for Aralyn but was embarrassed because Aralyn didn't give in and fought back. When she found out she couldn't mistreat Aralyn herself, she came to provoke you into doing it instead."Sophia held Amber's hand. "If I ever got divorced in the future and ended up with a former mother-in-law like this…"Amber instantly flew into a rage. "Then I would absolutely go and give that lady a good beating!"After speaking, she suddenly realized something and looked up at Sophia.Sophia smiled. "You absolutely can't follow her example."Amber nodded seriously, saying, "Thank goodness you're here. Otherwise, I might have really been convinced by her. Charlotte is truly a vicious person."Sophia nodded. "That's right.""She wants to use me, huh?" Amber huffed in anger."No, I need to think of a way to get back at her, or that old hag will really take me for a fool!"Sophia watched as Amber stormed off before lounging on the couch. She picked up her ph

"We're siblings. There's no need to be this formal," Sophia said sheepishly."Your company is short on business partners, right?" Julian asked.Sophia didn't know why Julian suddenly shifted the topic to work but answered honestly, "Yeah.""Do you have time now?"Thinking about it, Sophia realized she wasn't busy at this hour. "Of course, I do!""I was planning to collaborate with Shayne for a few projects. But I evaluated them carefully and thought it would work just as well for your company. Come to my place. We can discuss it properly."Hearing that, Sophia almost jumped with joy. "I'll be there right away!""Alright."…Hanging up, she dashed upstairs happily and burst into Amber's room. "Mom, great news!" she exclaimed."I told Julian about what Charlotte did, and he gave me several projects!" Sophia was overjoyed. She hugged Amber tightly. "See? As long as you're on Julian's good side, there are endless rewards. But if you go against him, there's no good outcome.""If

Eric had already picked Pamela up. He smiled and said to Ximena, "Let me. You should rest."Ximena didn't insist and replied sincerely, "Thank you.""You're welcome."All of us went to the dining room to eat. The original small dining table could no longer accommodate so many people, so we split into two tables.Pamela and Willow sat at the same table. They huddled together, chattering nonstop from the beginning of the meal.Every now and then, they would pause in confusion and ask others for help.The house was incredibly lively.I really liked this kind of atmosphere. Back when I lived at Shayne's house, Shayne was always too busy to spend time with me.Even after Zach was born, Shayne only stayed with me when Zach was too difficult to take care of.As Zach grew older and learned to eat by himself, Shayne would take Zach somewhere else to eat in the evenings.I was left alone, sitting in the dining room and eating the food I had cooked myself.Back then, I never thought th

"Of course," Victoria replied calmly.With the teacher's permission, Willow immediately grabbed Pamela's hand and went upstairs with her.The kids ran up the stairs excitedly, completely leaving their fear of the teacher behind.Victoria kept a serious expression as she said to Julian, "Don't worry. Since you've paid me, I'll make sure they learn something.""Your willingness to teach them this knowledge is already more than enough for me," Julian replied.He remembered that Victoria was a top expert in her field—someone people couldn't hire with money alone. It was only because she was short on funds recently that they were lucky enough to get her help. Otherwise, even people like him wouldn't even have the chance to meet her.Hearing Julian's trust in her, Victoria finally relaxed a little. "Thank you."The kids came running back downstairs with their toy airplanes.Victoria used the simplest terms and the most straightforward explanations to teach them about the principles.

"If it's not right, just end it. Clinging will only hurt us more."I smiled. "That's right. Before letting go, you'll always deceive yourself, telling yourself that if you just hold on, things will get better. But in reality, only after letting go and embracing a new life will you realize that every day you hesitated was pure torment."As I said this, I lowered my gaze to my toes. "I think what's better about me now compared to before is that I've become braver." Ximena, having gone through similar experiences, was deeply moved. "Indeed. During my marriage, when my husband cheated on me, I felt miserable. Even the people around me tried to brainwash me, saying it's normal for men to cheat. Some even said his infidelity was my fault."Ximena stared ahead, sighing. "But after the divorce, I realized he was the one at fault. It had nothing to do with me. In this life, you only need to be responsible for yourself. Other people are not our responsibility."…In the study, Sophia co

"But you're different. I'll be stricter with you because you're my sister."Sophia understood that Julian only wanted her to take her projects seriously. Ideally, through working on these projects, she could also learn a lot.That way, even if Julian stopped collaborating with her in the future, she could rely on her own abilities to find a way forward."No problem," she replied unhesitatingly.Julian handed a stack of documents to Sophia. "Take these and draft collaboration proposals for these projects. Then give them to me. I'll review them for you."Sophia took the documents happily. "Got it."With Julian helping to hone her skills, it probably wouldn't take long before her abilities became top-tier in the industry.Sophia could hardly hide her smile. "Don't worry, Julian. I'll give 200% effort on these projects! It's late now. I'll head home first!""Alright."Julian watched Sophia leave, then glanced at the clock. It was already 9:30 pm.…After putting Willow to sleep,

I wasn't used to being in a healthy relationship.But I had to admit. Julian being willing to communicate with me about these things made me feel incredibly happy.I looked up at Julian. "Alright. Tell me, then."Chuckling, Julian said, "She's my younger sister. We also had an older brother, but the age gap between us was too big, so we couldn't really play together. But since she and I were closer in age, our relationship had always been stronger. Plus, she was really cute when she was little, and I was always so proud of her."As he recounted these memories, there was a warmth in his tone that I had never heard before."I would even brag about her. I would tell people I had such an adorable sister and they didn't."I hadn't expected Julian to have such a vivid past, and I found it interesting. Instead of saying anything, I just watched him quietly.The humor in Julian's tone gradually faded. "That harmonious relationship was destroyed the year my brother passed away—by my mo

"Sophia happened to be at the house and overheard what Charlotte was saying, and she thought it was absurd. Since my mom was genuinely considering it, after Charlotte left, Sophia immediately sat down with my mom to reason with her. "She told my mom not to believe anything Charlotte said. It took a long while for her to finally convince my mom. After confirming that my mom had completely given up on the idea of going against you, she called me to report everything."Julian stroked my cheek with his thumb. "Lyn, ever since you came into my life, it feels as if only good things have been happening to me."I didn't argue. Instead, I looked up at him and said seriously, "Then you need to cherish me."Holding my face in both his hands, Julian slowly leaned in to kiss me.His warm lips pressed against mine.I closed my eyes, savoring his kiss.He leaned closer to me and whispered, "It wasn't easy to win your heart, Lyn. Of course, I'll never let you go."Shayne showed up at Hughes G

"I learned a lot of things today. Mason told me that your divorce from Rowan wasn't because Rowan's family went bankrupt," Shayne uttered slowly.Luna pushed Shayne away and looked at him. "Why are you suddenly bringing this up?""I'm sorry for misunderstanding you," he apologized.Luna didn't mind. "I wouldn't really call it a misunderstanding. Maybe I was too firm in my decision when I left you, which led you to misunderstand me."Shayne looked into Luna's eyes. "Aralyn said if I don't cherish you, I might regret it in the future. I gave it some thought, and I think she's right. So, from today onward, I want to cherish the days I spend with you."Luna smiled, her eyes crinkling. "Okay. But I've been busy with my career, so I might not have much time.""I'll help you," Shayne replied."Thank you," Luna said sincerely.Having been used to not having money for so long, Luna had developed the habit of saving. Now that she could earn her own money, she was thinking what she should

Shayne suddenly felt that Mason was incredibly smart, but he didn't dislike that kind of intelligence. "Okay."…Shayne dropped Mason off at kindergarten.Then, he drove to Willow's kindergarten. When he saw me about to get into the car, he quickly stepped in front of me. "Let's have a proper talk."I knew that if I didn't give him a chance to speak, he would keep blocking me here until I was willing to talk to him.To avoid wasting time, I decided to settle this quickly. "Alright, what do you want to say?"Shayne wanted to say a lot of things. But the moment he saw me, it was as if all those words got stuck in his throat. He couldn't say a single thing.In the end, he only managed to squeeze out, "Lately, I can't stop thinking about the days we were together."If he only wanted to chat casually or reminisce about the past, that would be a complete waste of my time."So what?"Shayne was used to my indifference, but it still hurt him a little. "Back when I pursued you, I trul

"Back then, Mommy had some savings and used all of it as our expenses. Daddy felt that we couldn't keep living like that, so he resigned from their company. Then, they came over and scolded Mommy."Mason's tone was full of sarcasm. "They said Mommy had instigated Daddy to quit. Mommy was really upset and cried at home secretly. But when Daddy came back, she still greeted him with a smile."Mommy only suffered all this injustice because she married Daddy, so when Mommy stayed quiet about it, I took the initiative to tell Daddy."He patted my head and told me he would handle it. Then, he went to the balcony. I overheard him telling Grandpa and Grandma to stop interfering in his life. He said that since he no longer worked for them and wasn't taking their money, he was already living independently."No one should have anything to say about his wife. That day, Grandpa and Grandma got really mad. Daddy just listened quietly and then hung up the phone. Back then, they were both under a l

"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

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.

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
