"Luna was the one who poured the oil on the stairs. Think about it. How could a small child like me possibly carry such a heavy bottle of oil? The surveillance cameras were also blocked. Can a small child like me climb that high to block the cameras?"Only now did Zach realize that his father was so naive it almost seemed a little foolish.He even felt that under Shayne's leadership, the company might go bankrupt before long.Suddenly, Zach felt a bit fortunate that Shayne had severed ties with him.Otherwise, debt collectors might come after him as well.After all, Zach still had a lot of money now.Shayne stared at Zach. "If you couldn't do it yourself, you would've asked someone else to do it for you."Zach didn't deny it. "If that's what you think, then let's go with that. Now, if I'm not mistaken, Luna's baby should be safe, right?"Shayne didn't refute him."And you've already slapped me," Zach added, feeling as if his hearing might have been damaged, as everything sound

When Maisy heard that Zach sounded normal, she finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Good to hear."After hanging up, Zach called Noah. "Bring your ID and pick me up at the police station.""Okay," said Noah.Zach got into the police car and looked out the window, his expression extremely calm.The police officer beside him looked at him and couldn't help but feel sympathetic. "Why did your dad hit you?"Zach blinked. "His woman was going to have an abortion. When he went to stop her, she said I was the one who told her that my dad wouldn't want the child, so she went to the hospital to get rid of the baby."The officers fell silent.One of them asked, "Isn't his woman your mom?""Of course not." Zach strained to make out what the officer was saying. "Back when my mom was still married to him, he was already secretly with this woman. She's a homewrecker."The officer continued, "So, did you actually tell her that?"Zach shook his head and said seriously, "Not at all. I just wan

When Zach heard this, his face turned even uglier. He took the medical report given by the doctor and snapped a photo, sending it to the head of Pearce Group's rival company and telling them the rest was up to them.The other party replied, "Alright."Shayne put away his phone.The police officers beside him felt sorry for Zach and tried to comfort him. "How could your dad be so cruel?""You're just a kid, yet he dared to hit you so hard. Didn't he even think for a second?""What if you go deaf?"Zach replied dejectedly, "Dad doesn't care about me. Right now, he only cares about the child the homewrecker is carrying. Maybe, in his heart, he hopes I'll end up disabled so he can abandon me without feeling guilty."The officers looked at his pitiful and humble expression, growing even more disgusted with Shayne.A grown man treating his son like this was truly outrageous."He has no shame!""We'll go find him right away."Zach cautiously asked, "Can I go home now? I'm really ti

"Shayne has poor judgment!"As time passed that night, the news gained more and more traction. Now, everyone who saw the reports knew what had happened in Shayne's household.As for the claims that Shayne had blamed Zach, accusing him of calling Luna to provoke her, Zach provided evidence to prove his innocence.It was the home surveillance footage from the past 30 days.The video showed that starting last month, Zach had locked his phone in a small cabinet at home.For all those days, the phone had remained untouched inside the cabinet.Because of that, everyone realized that the claim that Zach had pressured Luna into getting an abortion was completely false.People online began to curse Shayne."Oh my god, does Mr. Pearce even have a brain?""How can he be this stupid? He believes anything the homewrecker says without verifying anything.""Exactly! It's bad enough that he believed the mistress, but then he barged in without asking anything and just started hitting his own

Shayne was silent."You'd better find a way to fix this quickly, or we won't let you off!" said the executive.Shayne had a headache.The stock market was closed for trading right now, but people were already boycotting Pearce Group.Once the market opened tomorrow, Pearce Group's stock would likely plummet.That meant he only had one night to fix this.After much hesitation, Shayne decided to call Zach. The moment Zach answered, he asked irritably, "Now that things have blown up like this, are you satisfied?""I don't know what you're talking about." Zach was well aware that Shayne was recording the call.If he got emotional and said something he shouldn't, Shayne would immediately release it online to prove that Zach had brought this upon himself."Shayne, you're the one who's been causing trouble from the beginning," Zach said calmly.Shayne held back his anger. "That may be true, but do you have any idea how much Pearce Group's stock will drop tomorrow because of your i

"Then you can try," said Zach."Alright," Shayne replied firmly before hanging up.He knew that calling Aralyn wouldn't work, as she had already blocked him a long time ago.So, he dialed Julian's number.Seeing the caller ID, Julian found it a bit strange. "What do you need from me so late at night?""Could you pass the phone to Aralyn? I have something to tell her about Zach," Shayne said politely.…Julian looked at me.I took a deep breath but still agreed to take the call.Julian handed me the phone."Say whatever you need to say," I said indifferently."Aralyn, do you know what Zach did today?" Shayne's tone was harsh."No," I replied coldly.Shayne suppressed his anger. "You should check online first.""Later, I'll take Zach to the Hughes residence. You'd better understand the whole situation before deciding what's fair."Before I could refuse, Shayne had already hung up."You don't want to get involved in their conflict, do you?" Julian asked.I nodded. "I hate

Upon hearing that, I was stunned and looked at Zach in surprise.The evidence is right in front of your face, and you still want to throw dirt on me? Shayne, I'm not an idiot! And I'm not mute! I have a mouth; I can explain myself," Zach said disdainfully.Julian raised his hand, signaling Shayne to shut up. He gestured toward Zach and said, "Go on.""After Luna forced him to get a vasectomy, she was afraid he'd get mad, so she used the baby as leverage to threaten him." Zach didn't even need to think to figure out Luna's tactics."Then at the hospital, Shayne showed up right on time and stopped Luna. Luna cried in front of him and told him that I said Shayne didn't want the baby, which upset her so much that she wanted to get rid of the baby."Zach's face was full of unconcealed disdain. "Anyone with half a brain wouldn't believe such an excuse. But unfortunately, some people don't have a brain at all."Shayne took a deep breath.Zach didn't care how ugly Shayne's expression lo

After listening to the discussion between the two, Julian had a clear understanding of the situation. "From my standpoint, he isn't wrong. In order to prevent unexpected situations, he considers the consequences in advance and then prepares countermeasures accordingly. That's a smart approach."Julian admired Zach.If Zach had never harmed Aralyn, perhaps he would have brought Zach to his side and nurtured him.What a pity.Julian would never allow someone who had harmed Aralyn to stay around her.Shayne initially thought that since Julian was an adult, he would take his side. But Julian's response surprised him."But—""No buts," Zach cut him off."Shayne, whenever something happens, you only believe what Luna says. You don't use your brain at all. That's why you lost your wife and your stock prices dropped. All of this is the price you paid for your stupidity."The more Shayne listened, the angrier he became. Just as he was about to reprimand Zach, Julian spoke up."Actuall

"Isn't it obvious?" asked Alice. The more she listened, the funnier she found everything. "Avery, did you forget about me?"Avery rolled her eyes at her. "Aren't you just doing this for Aralyn?"Alice smirked. "Wow, you really do have a bad memory. It hasn't even been that long, and you've already forgotten that you messed with me first? Of course, I'm not the type to just let things slide. Since you came after me, I was definitely going to get back at you. That's just how I handle things."After hearing Alice's explanation, Avery finally realized that everything Alice had done had nothing to do with Aralyn.She replied, irritated, "Even if I was stupid back then, did you really have to use such nasty tricks to get back at me?"Alice shrugged. "It's not nasty. His crush on you didn't even last a full day. It's not like it affected you that much. Besides, you already know the truth today."Avery fell silent.Alice suddenly sensed something off and cautiously asked, "You didn't

Joseph kept his head down and didn't look at Avery.Alice answered without hesitation, "We're eating here. Isn't that normal?"Although the restaurant was expensive, with a meal costing her an entire month's salary, both she and Joseph came from fairly wealthy families. It wasn't like they couldn't afford a meal, right?Avery sneered. "But Joseph has already been abandoned by his family. Does he even have money to eat?"Alice responded calmly, "Of course, he has the money to do so. Did no one tell you? Joseph and I are starting a business together, and the early stages have been quite successful. We've made a few million in just the past few days."Alice had intended to stay low-key, but Avery's disdainful attitude made her feel like she had to stand up for Joseph. Otherwise, people might start thinking Joseph was easy to pick on.Upon hearing this, Avery looked at Joseph, stunned. "If you're so rich, then why did you come to my house for food back then?""I hadn't started the b

Joseph was rather reluctant. "If we hire people, we'll have to share the money we've already earned with them! But if we don't, then all the money we make from these projects will be ours."Julian said calmly, "But you need to understand something. If people come to you and don't receive a response for a long time, they might just cancel their collaboration with you."Joseph lowered his head.Julian continued, "By then, you won't earn a single cent."Joseph was still unwilling to accept it, but in order not to lose these clients, he had no choice but to compromise. "Fine, then."At first, Alice was working with great enthusiasm, but after a while, she started to feel exhausted. She said, "Let's hire people right now!"She had work the next day and simply wouldn't have time to handle so much on her own, so hiring people seemed like a good option.Instead of posting a job listing, Alice first messaged a few of her friends to see if they were interested. They didn't have jobs to be
A Heart Reclaimed: The Love I Deserve Chapter 677
Alice and Joseph then continued working. Julian returned at that moment and sat down beside me, calmly reporting his progress. "I only managed to add a few people. There are still a few I haven't added."Alice looked up and asked, "Who are you trying to add? Tell me, and I'll send their contacts to you."Julian asked, "Are you sure you have the contacts of the people I want to add?"Without hesitation, Alice nodded and said, "Of course. I added everyone who was here today."It was only then that Julian realized Alice actually had her strengths. "And you remember all of them?"Alice said confidently, "Of course! They're my clients. When I added them on WhatsApp, I matched their faces to their accounts."Seeing this, Julian told Alice the names of the people he wanted to add. Alice immediately forwarded their contacts to him.After adding them, Julian expressed his interest in their projects and arranged for them to visit his office the next day.Once everything was settled, he n

Alice stared at the chat window, looking at the template in silence for a long time before finally asking, "You can do it this way?"I asked in return, confused, "How else?"Alice licked her lips uncomfortably. "I thought you had to do it like me—first ask about their needs, then double-check the details several times..."With that, she glanced at my screen again and realized that the template was genuinely good. It was not only more efficient than hers but also more comprehensive.Alice softened her voice and asked cutely, "Can you send me a copy of your template? I want it too."I smiled and forwarded the template to Alice.Her efficiency instantly skyrocketed. She started sending the template directly to potential partners who reached out and then ran over to Joseph, gloating gleefully, "Joseph, are you managing?"Joseph's brow twitched. "What?"Alice shook her head. "You're way too slow. That's just with a few thousand people knowing about our company. Tens of thousands, hu

"They're still reliable people," said Alice. Joseph wholeheartedly agreed. "Good thing you reminded us. Otherwise, we'd definitely suffer a huge loss in the future."Alice smugly declared, "I told you, the friends I approve of are definitely extraordinary!"Joseph nodded perfunctorily. "Yes, you're amazing, and all your friends are geniuses."Only then was Alice satisfied. She glanced around and noticed that Julian wasn't with us. "Where's Julian? Where did he go?"In the past, whenever Aralyn was around, Julian would always be by her side.What was going on today? Why did he leave Aralyn sitting here alone?As Alice thought about it, she silently leaned a little closer to her. If her guess was right, Julian was probably giving her a chance to bond with Aralyn."He said there were a few projects he was particularly interested in," I answered calmly. "So, he went to get those people's contact information."Alice was a little surprised. "I thought someone of Julian's status alw

In just a few years, these friends might all become successful women in their fields. But what about me? Would I still be just an ordinary comic artist? No.I silently decided that I had to work hard and build my own career.After seeing off the last group of people, Alice collapsed onto the couch beside me, exhausted. She said to me in a boastful manner, "I've added almost everyone who came today. Bet you didn't expect that."I asked in disbelief, "You worked that hard?"Alice nodded and said without hesitation, "Of course! I hope my company will be able to develop well. At the very least, I want it to last a few years. To achieve that, of course, I have to put in the effort. Otherwise, am I supposed to rely on someone else?"I stared at Alice in surprise. She had actually realized, in the process of starting her business, that a person couldn't depend too much on others. She had really grown a lot. Alice smiled. "But hard work pays off. I already have a lot of potential client

As Joseph spoke, the corner of his eye caught sight of Alice's hands. Only then did he realize that she had clasped them tightly together at some point. She looked even more nervous than he was.Joseph's lips curled in exasperation. So, after all that, Alice's confident words were just an act. Amidst everyone's discussion, I stood up and answered the question.…Alice gazed at Aralyn with admiration. Her tone was gentle, but every word was firm. Besides, unlike the others, she always went straight to the heart of the issue.After listening to her words, the man was still unconvinced. "Who knows if you've memorized this answer beforehand?"Julian replied calmly, "Feel free to ask her if there's something you don't understand. You'll see if she is able to answer you."The man came up with a question that even someone with years of business experience might struggle to answer. He then posed the question to me.I answered without hesitation.Hearing my response, his expression sh

Alice felt a little nervous when she saw so many people present. She looked at Julian and asked, "Do you want to put on makeup? Do you want..."Before she could finish her sentence, I interrupted, "Just take a moment to calm down. Leave the rest to us."Alice asked uncertainly, "Are you sure?"I responded confidently, "Yeah."Only then did Alice sit aside pitifully as she stared at me.Upon seeing this, Joseph took the initiative to take over the task of debugging the equipment. He wasn't enthusiastic about it, but Alice had given him part of the money to handle these trivial matters.Once everything was set up, Julian stepped onto the stage. Having led countless meetings in his company, he was already well-versed in handling such situations. After a straightforward introduction, he began talking about his experience calmly.Everyone listened carefully regardless if they were convinced or not. Julian's voice was deep and steady, and his presence alone exuded a sense of reliabili
