A Heart Reclaimed: The Love I Deserve Chapter 456
Shayne's heart felt unbearably heavy.Tears fell, one after another, hitting the ground.Shayne's vision blurred. He wiped his tears away, afraid he would lose sight of Aralyn.…Zach returned home.Maisy heard the sound of the door and immediately rushed to the entrance with a cheerful smile. "You're back." Looking at Maisy's bright, smiling face, Zach felt a wave of unfamiliar emotion.Ever since his parents divorced, no one had greeted him with such warmth.Zach was touched. Not wanting to disappoint Maisy, he replied, "Yes, I am."Maisy took Zach's backpack and sighed. "I prepared the mac and cheese; Daphne made the rest of the dishes. She's amazing at cooking. I was watching her the whole time. I don't know how, but her dishes just look more appetizing even though they're the same ingredients."Daphne Harper was Zach's new tutor. Lewis had resigned a while ago due to personal reasons.Zach loved living like this—being with family, where there wasn't always much to talk

Zach lowered his head unconsciously.Maisy sighed, reaching out to tousle his soft hair. "Silly child, you need to remember that no matter what, I will always stand by your side."Zach met Maisy's gaze, and for a moment, he felt an overwhelming urge to cry.He nodded heavily. "Thank you, Granny. You're the best to me!"After saying that, Zach couldn't help but feel puzzled.Maisy treated him so well, so why had he been distant from her before?Was it because of Charlotte?Charlotte often said awful things to him, like how Aralyn and Maisy were from a poor family.She claimed the two of them couldn't earn money and just wanted to latch onto their family like parasites.But now Zach realized the flaws in Charlotte's words.He remembered that when Aralyn and Shayne first got together, Shayne wasn't wealthy either.It was only with Aralyn's support that Shayne made money slowly.Yet, after Shayne became successful, Charlotte seemed to forget the years of hardship she and Shayne

Zach smiled and explained, "Because I want to be ahead of the other kids. If I finish reviewing all the elementary school materials in advance, I won't feel so much pressure when I get to elementary school."These were things Daphne had told him, and he thought she made a lot of sense."While others are struggling to learn in elementary school, I'll already be preparing for middle school and high school. This way, when I actually get to middle and high school, things will be so much easier for me."While others are buried in homework, working hard to understand things, I'll already know everything and have plenty of time to play."Listening to Zach, Maisy couldn't help but feel that what he said made sense."You're growing up, Zach," she commented smilingly.Zach just smiled before waving to Maisy and walking toward his bedroom.Maisy watched his figure disappear."What a sensible child," she thought.It was a pity that Aralyn and Zach were no longer together. Otherwise, when

At that time, he had been brimming with confidence, believing that Luna was his true love. He thought that successfully being with the person he had secretly admired for years would make his future as sweet as honey.But the reality was completely different from his fantasies.Shayne let out a helpless, bitter laugh.He could only maintain a certain distance from Luna as if getting even slightly closer would bring him discomfort.By the time he realized this, it was already too late to regret it.No…Shayne closed his eyes.He still had a chance.Julian also had a first love. When his first love reappeared in his life, Julian would undoubtedly abandon Aralyn for her.At that moment, Shayne could show up in front of Aralyn, and she would surely be moved by him.What he needed to do now was to occasionally show up in Aralyn's life, ensuring that she wouldn't forget him. This thought had surfaced countless times in Shayne's mind. But he didn't feel annoyed by it in the sligh

Shayne roughly understood what Luna meant but didn't show it. "Oh?""I want to invest all that money into my work. If the marketing is effective, then everyone across the country will know how much money you spent and how much effort you put into promoting my work. This way, you will have a better reputation."Aralyn would also realize how generous he could be to the people he cared about."How about 50 million?" Shayne raised the amount decisively.Luna's heart raced wildly. She had never imagined that she only needed to say a few words to make Shayne willing to add another 40 million.But she didn't rush to accept as a crazy idea flashed through her mind, making her heart nearly leap out of her chest. Cold sweat even formed on her forehead.She feared that if she stated the figure she had in mind, Shayne would think she was too greedy and refuse to give her anything.But she wanted to give it a shot.If Shayne agreed, she would have a fortune in her hands.Luna feigned nonch

It was probably because it was nighttime and Luna's voice was soft that Shayne was uncharacteristically moved. "Don't worry. Even if Aralyn and I really reconcile, I won't ignore you and the child."Luna almost rolled her eyes as she thought, "If you take care of me and the child, how am I supposed to be with Julian?"Of course, she didn't say it out loud as she replied, "But if it really comes to that and you still keep in touch with me, Aralyn won't be happy. For your future, maybe it's better if you keep your distance from me.""What about the child?" Shayne wasn't about to give up his own child.Luna nearly blurted out that the child wasn't his, but she swallowed the words at the last moment. "If you want to see the child, you can come by occasionally."Shayne fell silent."But it's probably better if you don't visit. Otherwise, she'll get jealous and think you still care about me.""Give me some time to think it over," replied Shayne."Alright." Luna smiled in satisfacti

Logically, Luna should be asleep by now. Yet, she was still chatting energetically with Julian. However, Rowan was the one using Julian's account.Luna had been sowing discord between Julian and Aralyn right under his nose the whole time. Through the difference between Luna's attitudes toward him and Julian, he easily saw her true nature.Rowan turned off the screen. Even so, he had to admit that Luna was brilliant and knew how to play the long game. Although he had no money left, she was still willing to take the time and effort to deal with him.He had once naively believed that the reason Luna was willing to stay in touch with him was because she loved him and couldn't let go of him. That was why she kept reaching out to him on and off. Perhaps he was more important than money in her heart.Rowan chuckled. Pain welled up within him, making it hard to breathe. However, the truth was that Luna was only willing to spend time interacting with him because she wanted to secure the m

Luna's eyes were filled with longing. If she managed to win Julian's heart, would he treat her that well? Would he protect her unconditionally? Would he...Luna bit her lip shyly.Would he spend all his money on her?...Once I returned to my bedroom, I turned on the desk lamp and sat at my desk. I drew for some time and only stopped once I was a little tired.I reached up to pull back the curtain. It was pitch black outside the window. The sound of insects came and went. The silence was comforting.I stood up and leaned against the window, taking in the view outside.I had been constantly harassed lately, and I couldn't help but feel irritable. However, when I forced myself to face these things, I suddenly realized something. The more annoyed I was, the more it proved that they had succeeded, right? As such, what I needed to do now was find a way to free myself from their influence. I started relaxing gradually.I now had a child who loved me and a husband who was willing

Luna was at home. She had been in a good mood, watching the steady rise in sales of her comics. But in the blink of an eye, she saw that Charlotte was trending, followed immediately by Aralyn and her comics on the trending page.Luna sat up in alarm and opened Aralyn's comic storefront. She was so furious that she almost threw her phone when she saw that Aralyn's sales were climbing even faster than hers.Why? Her sales only increased after she had spent over a million dollars, yet Aralyn was already catching up just by trending.Luna couldn't stand the idea of Aralyn making more money than her. She wanted to contact the marketing team again to help hype up her comic, but she was worried that Aralyn would take advantage of her. As such, she suppressed the urge for now.She paced around in the living room and finally came up with a solution. She headed straight to the garage and, with a calm expression, told the driver, "Take me to Shayne's office.""Alright," replied the driver.
A Heart Reclaimed: The Love I Deserve Chapter 492
The employees at the company all treated me with great respect. No matter what they were working on, they would always seek my opinion first.When Luna pulled me down to climb the ranks, they sought my approval before using the opportunity for counter-marketing. Now, with Charlotte's scandal being exposed, they were still doing the same.Without hesitation, I said, "You're helping me make money. Of course, I'll agree unconditionally."Mark hesitated for a moment before saying, "We were just worried that using Charlotte's negative news for a promotion might cause you to recall bad memories."It was only after everyone saw the news that they truly understood the kind of life I had in Shayne's household. While they recognized the rare promotional opportunity, they were also concerned about my feelings.I chuckled and said, "It won't. It's all in the past, so I won't dwell on it."Mark felt relieved after hearing this. "Then I'll reply to the marketing team.""Alright."…Mark rel

But if Charlotte was acting, what kind of person could come up with such a bizarre storyline?Then, someone stepped forward and claimed to be Charlotte's neighbor. He claimed that Charlotte really did treat Aralyn this way. After that, many others came forward to confirm the story, stating they had seen it too.In an instant, everyone online was criticizing Charlotte."No way! I can't believe it. How is it still possible to treat your daughter-in-law like a servant in this day and age?""Even if she was a servant, you shouldn't treat them like this, right?""That's right.""I really have no idea what she's thinking. Maybe she just can't stand seeing her son happy?""What about her daughter-in-law? Is she still putting up with this?""No, they've already gotten divorced.""The ex-daughter-in-law is now a comic artist."When it was confirmed that Aralyn had escaped, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief."I'm so glad for her ex-daughter-in-law. She finally got away from t

When said this, her chin was raised, and her tone was especially arrogant. It was as if she had made an incredibly wise and correct decision.However, Amber only found her very foolish. Neglecting her biological grandson to focus on an unborn child… Was there something wrong with her brain?Even so, Amber didn't plan to point this out to Charlotte. Instead, she said, "I think there's something wrong with your attitude toward your son…"Charlotte asked, puzzled, "What's wrong with it?""Well, if you truly love your son, shouldn't you also treat your daughter-in-law well?" Amber asked, confused. "After all, when you love someone, you naturally care about the people they love…"Charlotte waved her hand dismissively. "I just don't like Aralyn, that's all. Now that I have a new daughter-in-law, can't you see that I treasure her?""You can't bully her even if you dislike her," replied Amber."Since we seem to disagree on this, why don't we post this online and let others decide who'

Amber sat on the living room couch. She was surrounded by her close friends.She held a cup of tea, sipping it slowly."I've already told you all about what Charlotte did a few days ago. You all need to help me come up with good ideas to get back at her. Otherwise, I'll feel awful if I keep holding this grudge!""Don't worry," Zoey Wadsworth quickly replied. "You don't have to do anything later—just sit back and watch us put on a show. When we post what she did online, plenty of people will criticize her. We won't have to worry about it at all."Amber raised a brow and asked excitedly, "Really?""Of course!" Zoey assured her seriously.As soon as she finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.Amber finally let out a sigh of relief. She looked at the food and said with a smile, "Then I can rest easy. Look, she's here."Zoey stood up to open the door.Charlotte stepped inside. She was momentarily stunned the instant she saw Zoey. She then approached Amber with a smile and

Julian smiled as he explained, "Before Shayne arrived just now, the water I poured was still hot at the time. It should be just the right temperature now."I was a little surprised. Julian could be this thoughtful? I took a small sip. The temperature was just right.Julian sat down beside me.I leaned on his shoulder. It was strange, He had done so many things for me in the past. However, this time, he made me feel like my always unsettled heart had finally found a place to rest.I was so moved that I couldn't put it into words. "What did I do to meet such a good boyfriend like you?"The better Julian was to me, the more unbearable it made the days I spent with Shayne seem. This was because if Shayne did the same thing…Oh. To be more exact, Shayne would never do the same thing because he never bothered to do anything for me.I recalled one time when I was sick and thirsty, I asked him to pour me some water. He poured a cup of boiling hot water and gave it to me. I complaine

As Julian's subordinate who followed Julian almost the entire way, he knew about Julian's capabilities clearly. In terms of work, he was unparalleled. No matter how difficult the problem was, Julian would always be the first to think of a solution.Mark admired Julian very much. He also always wondered what kind of woman Julian would like.Did he like pretty women, women with a good personality, or…However, he never thought that Julian would like a divorced woman who had a child. Therefore, when Julian first brought Aralyn to the company, he was somewhat dissatisfied with her. He didn't think she was worthy of Julian.But as he interacted with her more often, he suddenly realized that she seemed to be even better than he had imagined.She was very emotionally stable, and her mind wasn't clouded by nonsensical thoughts. She was also always firm. Most importantly, her problem-solving ability was also on par with Julian's. Moreover, she was very gentle yet powerful.Mark now vaguel

Lucas even said that Joseph was now an adult and could take responsibility for his own choices. Hence, from now on, whatever Joseph did would have nothing to do with Lucas. The latter would not interfere.After I read the public statement, my only feeling about this was that Lucas was deeply hurt this time. He had probably given up on Joseph.After Alice read the statement, she grinned from ear to ear. "He was abandoned by his biological father. His future is going to be miserable!""There's no need to wait," Mark said quietly. He then added, "Ever since he was kicked out of the house by his father, his days haven't been too good. Stella, who initially said that she loved him and was pregnant, suddenly broke up with him after he lost the Wilson family's backing. She even told him the pregnancy was fake and that she had been lying to him."Joseph didn't believe her. He grabbed her shoulders and said she had told him she loved him. Stella slapped his hands away in disgust and said

"Mr. Wilson's company was already having major financial problems. They almost went under. It was Mr. York and Mr. Hughes who returned all the money he had previously advanced to them. Only then did he get the chance to cover the current lack of funds," said Mark.He continued, "However, he didn't manage to hold on to the money for long as his precious son had borrowed more funds than he currently had on hand! If he really covered Joseph's debts, the family might actually go bankrupt."These events had just happened recently. Once Mark learned about it, he couldn't wait to share it with someone. Luckily for him, he found people to share it with.Alice asked in disbelief, "How is it possible for such a useless son to exist?"She had always thought she spent too much money herself and wasn't much help to her parents. That was already bad enough in her eyes. However, Joseph's actions blew her mind.Looking at herself in comparison, she thought she was pretty great. Mark sighed. "Ye
