Chapter 473

Author: Walking on Clouds
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?"

    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

    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

    Shayne couldn't figure out the answer. His phone rang. He took the phone and glanced at it. It was Luna."What's the matter?" he asked.Luna lightly bit her lip. She didn't know how to start, but for the sake of her work's development, she decided to risk it. "Didn't you agree to transfer money to me so I can promote my work?"She was worried that the delay would cause complications and that Shayne would regret his words.As such, she contacted him early in the morning. She asked cautiously, "When will you transfer me the money?"Shayne was willing to help Luna promote her work mainly because he wanted Aralyn to see him treating Luna well. He wanted her to be jealous. It would have been best if she immediately regretted getting together with Julian and broke up with him to remarry Shayne. As such, he would definitely transfer the sum to Luna.Shayne answered without hesitation, "I'll have someone transfer it to you now."Luna finally let out a sigh of relief upon receiving

    "I ended up in this situation because of you," said Avery. Since she had sacrificed a lot for Luna, she found it necessary to inform her about it.Hearing this, Luna felt a pang of guilt. "Then why don't you come work at my company?""It's fine," Avery declined. "Your comic company just started, and you're short on funds. If I joined, you'd have to pay me a salary. That's not practical."Luna didn't respondPuzzled, Avery asked, "But why are you suddenly asking about merchandise?"Luna took a deep breath. There was no one who could help her now. Moreover, she was pregnant, so bearing all the pressure alone was rather exhausting.She replied without hesitation, "Because I want to start producing merchandise now.""Then I can help you take a look at Aralyn's storefront to see what she's selling." Avery was currently free, so she could help Luna out a little and wouldn't mind doing so."Thank you," Luna said gratefully."I can also summarize details like materials and put every

    Avery said with a smile, "I've sent the numbers to your WhatsApp. Take a look."Luna opened her WhatsApp upon hearing that. When she saw the contacts, she smiled. "Are all of them there?""Yeah," Avery replied. She had put in effort and even included screenshots of all the products listed in Aralyn's storefront.Luna carefully cross-checked them and found that the contacts Avery sent could produce almost everything in Aralyn's shop. Only then did she smile and reply, "Thank you. Once I make money, I'll definitely remember your kindness."Avery wasn't expecting Luna to actually pay her, but she appreciated the sentiment. Playing along good-naturedly, she said, "Then I'll be waiting for you to strike it rich!""No problem," Luna replied. She could no longer be bothered with pleasantries anymore and added, "I'll contact them now and see how things go.""Alright."Luna hung up and immediately started calling the numbers Avery had sent, negotiating cooperation deals with each of th

The audience drawn in by the promotions turned out to be genuine readers and not fake readers.Luna's mood improved.The response was already this impressive with just one million dollars invested in marketing. What if she spent two or three million dollars? Maybe even ten million dollars?

    Rowan saw the message from Luna. Instead of replying through Julian's account, he took out another phone and sent a message to Luna from his own WhatsApp account. "Luna, how are you doing now?"Luna didn't reply.Rowan felt as though his heart had been pierced by an arrow. It hurt immensely.At first, he had some delusions regarding Luna. He even reassured himself that she hadn't replied last time because she was pregnant and must have been so tired that she fell asleep immediately. She just so happened to be awake when she chatted with Julian.Now, he knew that wasn't the case. Luna simply didn't want to waste any more time on him.Rowan plastered on a bitter smile.He treated her so well, so why didn't she like him?Luna glanced at the message from Rowan and sneered. If she wasn't mistaken, Rowan had become a useless person who did nothing after their divorce. Even she was doing better than him now. She didn't want to waste her time on someone who wasn't worth it, but Julian

    Luna got straight to the point in her reply. "But I'm better than her. If you're with me, your life would be a lot less troublesome."Rowan saw the notification on WhatsApp. He picked up his phone, glanced at the message, and finally replied, "But I don't like mistresses."He didn't understand why the love he worked so hard to pursue was never his, to begin with. However, Julian wasn't interested in Luna at all, yet he effortlessly got Luna's affection.Luna stared at the words on the screen. It felt like a sharp stab to her heart. The pain was unbearable. However, she schooled her expression and forced a smile onto her face. "I'm not a mistress. I'm just courageously pursuing love."Rowan didn't know how to respond to Luna, so he decided to ignore her.Not getting a reply from Julian made Luna a little anxious. She asked, "Do you really like Aralyn that much?""But I don't see anything particularly attractive about her," she added.Rowan continued ignoring her.Luna continued

    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

    Maisy stared at Shayne.Shayne remained silent for a long time before saying, "No matter what, he's my son.""So, now you consider him your son? Too late! I'm warning you, the only reason you got to talk to him today is because I didn't notice you in time! If I catch you near Zach again, I won't let you off!" Maisy snapped.For Shayne, Zach was the only connection left between him and Aralyn.If he lost Zach too, then he would truly have nothing.Shayne looked straight at Maisy and said, "But do you have the right to interfere? You're his grandmother. I'm his father. It's already kind enough of me to let him live with you."Maisy almost laughed in anger. "Me? Interfering? First of all, you were the one who gave up custody of Zach. You were also the one who refused to give him a single cent! And now you're telling me this? Do I look like a pushover?"She had managed to carve out her own path after her divorce, despite Donald trying to blacklist her from the industry.That alone

    Shayne followed behind Zach into the bedroom, only to discover that the entire room was covered with photos of Aralyn.Every wall was plastered with them.He stood there, stunned.On the desk, a small robot said in Aralyn's uniquely gentle voice, "You're home, sweetheart."Shayne looked over in disbelief.Zach sat in front of the robot, looking at it with a smile. "Yes, Mom, I'm home.""Welcome home," said the robot softly."But there's an unwelcome guest in the house," Zach said.The little robot immediately suggested, "Why don't we call someone else over to kick him out?"Zach looked at Shayne.His longing for Aralyn had only gotten better because of the robot and the countless photos surrounding him.But when he noticed Shayne was also staring at the robot, his expression darkened. "Did you hear that? You're not welcome here. Please leave."Shayne stood there, dazed. "Can I ask who gave you this robot?""No, you can't," Zach replied sternly.Shayne averted his gaze and

He merely glanced at Shayne before looking away and pushing the door open to enter the house.Shayne followed behind him.As soon as Zach stepped inside, he intended to close the door.But Shayne stuck his hand in the doorway. "Can we talk?""About what? Last time we met, you hit me. What about this time?" Zach asked coldly.He didn't believe for a second that Shayne had come for anything good.After all, Shayne was an idiot who always believed whatever people told him.There was a high chance that this time, Shayne had been manipulated again and had come looking for trouble."I'm here to talk about your mother," Shayne muttered.At hi
