Author: Walking on Clouds
"No," I replied, shaking my head.

"I've already been speaking to you nicely. How else do you want me to change? Do you want me to grovel before you to make you satisfied?"

I handed my phone to Donald. "If you really want to grovel, I won't stop you."

Donald took the phone and glanced at it, his face darkening.

"What, you want to work with my husband and have me help support your son, yet this is how you treat me?" I questioned.

Donald wanted to close his eyes, but Luna's bragging voice kept playing from the phone.

"Yeah, Aralyn is just so annoying. Otherwise, why would her own father rather invest in me than in her? I think you need to think carefully about this. There's a reason for everything."

Donald never expected Luna to be this stupid.

He had just talked to Luna about something, and she was already making a scene online.

I chuckled and said, "You knew she stole my husband, yet you still invested in her. And after that, you come to me, saying you want to work together. Do

    "Aralyn and I were about to reconcile, but then you went online and said all that nonsense. Now she's angry and doesn't want to work with me anymore," Donald said.Hearing this, Luna could more or less guess what had happened. She cautiously asked, "Do you want me to clarify things online?""It's no use."Her willingness to admit her mistake was so good that Donald didn't even know what to say. After a long silence, he finally said, "She's not an idiot. Forget it. I'll figure something out. But watch what you say from now on. If you dare to run your mouth again, don't blame me for not being polite."Luna laughed. "Alright."…On my way back, I passed by a coffee shop and bought a cup of coffee for Julian.But I was actually thinking about how Donald was helping both Luna and Yasmin steal my husband.Did he really think I was stupid?Even after everything he did to me, did he think I would still be willing to give to him unconditionally?Did he really believe that the little b

    "Obviously. Your family's company is huge, which could help Donald climb a few levels. Plus, you're handsome, and you treat your woman well. It's enough to make a lot of women fall for you," I responded.Even if most men didn't have Julian's wealth but had his looks and personality, they would probably be more willing to settle down in marriage.Julian just didn't realize how great he was.I showed him another video.Julian watched it and was speechless. "They're being so blatantly obvious. Are they trying to make you notice?""Who knows?" I shrugged."By the way, do you have any events to attend?"If he stayed in the company all the time, Yasmin wouldn't even have a chance to meet him.Julian thought carefully and said, "There's a banquet tonight."Then, he quickly reassured me, "Don't worry. There's no way I'd be interested in other women."I didn't think much of it. "Feeling attracted to someone is normal. After all, she does look a little like me."As much as I disliked

    Mark laughed when he heard that and replied excitedly, "Of course! I'll inform them of the great news right away!""Tell them to just focus on doing their jobs well. They don't need to take on extra tasks. Also, after deducting operational costs, I plan to take a large portion of the profits and distribute them among everyone. This way, their monthly salaries will increase significantly compared to before."Honestly, when I first saw such a large sum of money flowing into my account, I was extremely excited.But after thinking it through, I gradually became more rational.If I hoarded all the money just because I was earning more while my employees continued to struggle, then how would I be any different from an ordinary boss?Back when I worked for others, the thing I hated most was this kind of employer.Once I figured that out, it felt like a huge weight had been lifted off my shoulders.It was strange. I had been a boss before, but I had never thought this way.Why was it d

    I couldn't be bothered to handle it myself, so I subtly asked Mark about it. He was also extremely busy and barely had any time.That was when I remembered Alice's company offered this kind of service.Getting up, I walked to the window, gazing at the beautiful scenery outside for a long time before finally calling Alice."Hello?" Alice asked, surprised that I had time to call her.I smiled and said, "I want to introduce some business to your company. I need to get in touch with a few toy manufacturers."As I spoke, I sent her my requirements.Then, I asked, "Do you have any factories like this on your side?"Alice took a look to confirm my requirements and replied, "Yes, the market hasn't been doing well recently, so many similar factories haven't been able to get orders. When they heard that I could connect them with potential clients, they all came to me."Since these factories had no orders and weren't making much money, I said, "I'll cover the introduction fee, including t

    Mark looked a little uneasy when he said this."Is there a problem?"Mark lowered his head and said, "Even if we put all the factories that Mr. Hughes acquired into full production, it's still not enough. We'll probably have to increase output."This news truly shocked me as I asked in disbelief, "Do that many people want to buy the product?"The hype was almost catching up to the toy I had just launched.Mark nodded. "Yeah, I underestimated how much people abroad admire nobility under their system.""It's fine. I have already contacted a few more factories. They'll probably come to meet me this afternoon. Why don't you join us?"Initially, all the factories were only discussing business with me, and my orders could, at most, keep their operations running normally.I couldn't guarantee how much profit they would make.But with the addition of collectible toys, they at least wouldn't have to worry about their salaries for the next few months.Mark looked at me in surprise. "Re

    Now that everyone's factory issues were resolved, they quickly nodded. "It's not that we didn't trust you. We've just been scammed too many times."The moment scams were mentioned, everyone had a shared experience."The demand from business partners keeps decreasing, and in order to keep our factories running, we've all been trying every possible way to find new collaborations. But during times like these, there are even more scammers."Sometimes they seem extremely legitimate. They wine and dine us and make us spend a fortune on them. But when it's time to sign the contract, they all just say they need to 'think about it.' Not a single one of them actually needed us to produce anything real because they couldn't afford the deposit."Many of them actually felt that the deposit policy was incredibly helpful to them. Otherwise, they would have lost a lot of money."When we first heard that you had so many orders for us, we actually thought you were a scammer too. During such a harsh

    Everyone asked me what the second model was."The second model is based on sales, where you'll receive a commission," I answered.Without hesitation, they all chose the second option.I also preferred the second model.Even though I would end up giving them more money, there was no denying that they would be more invested and motivated, which in turn would generate even more profit for me.Smiling, I said, "Then work hard. How much you earn depends entirely on your ability."One by one, they all assured me it wouldn't be a problem and then went all out.I thought it would take some time to see results—maybe a few days or even a month—but to my surprise, it worked immediately.Many celebrities and influencers started sharing this toy.Even some scions couldn't put it down.Seeing the results, they excitedly bragged in the group chat, "Did you see that? We didn't need to pay them extra advertising fees. You just have to tell them that this is highly sought after among the elite

    Julian gazed at me, amusement painted his usually cold voice. "I'll have to ask him about that."As he spoke, he called Mark and asked him to come over.The moment Mark heard, he immediately stopped what he was doing and rushed over. "Is something wrong?"Julian's amused gaze landed on me. "You can just talk to him."I told Mark about my side business that I had been secretly running and then explained my request. "Your task is to inform the factories whenever production needs to be increased. I'll handle everything else. But I'll give you a 20% commission. Are you interested?"Mark only needed a brief calculation to realize that 20% was a huge amount—it was practically free money falling from the sky.Of course, he wouldn't refuse. But since this was happening in front of his boss, he had to stay composed and consider Julian's opinion first.Mark looked at Julian and asked, "What do you think, Mr. Hughes?""I respect your decision," Julian replied in a neutral tone, revealing

    Seeing that no matter what they said, Luna remained unmoved, Shannon slowed her speech. "We're actually here to ask you to get back with Rowan.""Sorry, that thought has completely left my mind," replied Luna."If that's why you're here, then you should leave. I have work to do, so I won't be chatting with you any longer."Luna walked to the door and opened it. "You can go now."Shannon looked at Patrick.Patrick said coolly, "I don't even care that you're pregnant with Shayne's child anymore. In fact, if you get back together with Rowan, we can treat this child as one of our own. I hope you don't miss out on such a great opportunity.""That's not a great opportunity for me. When I didn't have a job back then, I thought being a housewife was a good life. I didn't have to worry about making money—I just had to take care of the household. But I realized it wasn't like that at all."Earning my own money is much better than relying on someone else to give it to me. This way, I don't

    "But I remember his place is pretty far from mine," Luna said, puzzled.Patrick sat down on the couch, looking at Luna. "Mainly, we figured since we came all this way to see Rowan, we might as well check in on you, too."Luna was even more confused. "Check in on me? Why?"Instead of answering her, Patrick asked, "You're pregnant."Luna glanced down at her stomach, then replied, "So what? I've been divorced from Rowan for so long, and I've been with Shayne for quite a while now. It's perfectly normal that I'm pregnant. You guys hated me before."Back then, you were eager for me to be with someone else. Now that I am, you guys should be happy."Luna sat down as well. When she was with Rowan, she had always been respectful in front of Patrick and Shannon.She had always seen them as family and worked hard to earn their approval.But no matter what she did, it was never enough.For a long time, Luna wondered if she was doing something wrong.But after the divorce—and after she wa

    When I found out Serena didn't have a job yet, an idea immediately came to mind. "I actually started a new company. We're hiring. The salary during the probation period is ten thousand dollars a month, with weekends and all national holidays off. And if you perform well, there's a big commission on top of that."I was about to add more when Mark sent me a photo. It was a payroll statement.Right after that, he sent a voice message. "Take a look at how much they've earned in commissions!"I tapped on the image. The company didn't have many employees yet, but every single one of them had already made over a million in commission—some even over five million.The amusement in my eyes deepened as I replied, "I hope they'll take home even more next month."Mark responded without hesitation, "At the rate sales are going, doubling it shouldn't be a problem."After reading his messages, I finally put my phone down and looked at Serena. "But of course, it all depends on our product sales.

    In the cafe, I looked at the young woman sitting across from me and asked, "What's your name?"She was sipping her milk tea. When she heard my question, she quickly looked up and replied, "My name is Serena Towson. You can call me Serena. I used to stay in the ward next to yours."I was a bit puzzled. "Then, how do you know I was framed?"Serena took a deep breath, lowering her head. "Actually, I should be apologizing to you for this.""Why are you apologizing?" I asked in confusion.Serena didn't answer. She looked uneasy as she kept looking down, pushing her phone toward me.On the screen was a voice recording.I tapped play.It was a conversation between Luna and someone else. "I need you to avoid the surveillance cameras and spill oil in that area. Do you hear me?"The other person seemed doubtful about Luna's plan. "If we do that, it'll be hard to clean up, and people will definitely notice something's off!""Don't pour too much. Just pour enough so she'll fall when she

    I looked around and saw that there was no one else around before turning to leave."Are you Aralyn?"I heard someone call my name and turned around to see a stranger.A little confused, I asked, "Yes?""I heard from someone at the hospital that you went there before, trying to find proof that Luna was the one who framed you. Isn't that right?" The woman seemed nervous.I had been trying to get evidence for this for a long time, but after so much effort, I hadn't found anything.At this point, I was about to give up on that approach.After all, I had other ways to get back at Luna and Shayne.Hearing what she said, I was surprised. "What, you have proof?""Yes, I do," she said firmly.If I could really get my hands on that kind of evidence, my revenge would be even more ruthless.But I knew that in situations like this, it was important to stay calm. "Why don't we talk about it at a cafe?"The woman hesitated.I smiled. "Do you have time?"Only then did she nod. "Of course

    I wanted Shayne to care about Luna, and when Luna gave birth to the baby who wasn't his, Shayne would be immensely devastated, especially since Luna and Charlotte had even forced Shayne into getting a vasectomy.Sometimes I couldn't help but wonder if Luna and Charlotte were on my side.Charlotte looked confused. "Good?"I nodded. "Yes, good."Charlotte studied me. "If he and Luna are doing well, that means he doesn't want you anymore.""Then so be it." I had long since stopped caring about Shayne.Charlotte fell silent.I met her gaze. "I'm married now. Maybe I didn't inform you, but Julian and I are legally married. We just haven't made it public. After being with Julian, I've felt a kind of security that I never had in my previous relationship."So, I also hope that this marriage will last. Of course, it'd be even better for me if all of you stopped bothering me."With that, I was ready to end the conversation. "Anything else you wanted to say? If not, I'll head upstairs."

    "Then, do we really need to give them commissions?"I didn't mind. "Yeah, go ahead. If they see that hard work pays off in our company, they'll be more willing to stay, right?""Yeah." Mark chuckled."I get what you're saying. I'll take care of it now.""Alright."After the call ended, Julian walked over to me and held my hand.I gently rubbed his hand in return. "What is it?""Your career is getting more and more successful," Julian said, a bit emotionally.When we first got together, I had nothing—just myself.But over time, I started drawing comics.With the right promotion, my comics gained traction and became a hit.That led to merchandise, trendy collectibles.But Julian never expected that I'd be able to launch my own plushies, start my own company, and make serious money.He always knew I was capable.But seeing me rise back to my peak in such a short time still surprised him.I smiled. "Yeah. Back when I was penniless and kicked out of my house, I never would've

    "My plan is to take advantage of the fact that our comic still has some merchandise and the hype hasn't died down yet. While ensuring quality, we'll speed up production as much as possible."I understood what Julian meant. "Alright.""Should I arrange it now?" Julian asked."Sure."Julian took his phone and went out to the balcony to share his thoughts with Mark.As someone who had been working with Julian for years, Mark immediately understood what Julian meant. "Leave it to me."Still, to make sure he didn't misinterpret any details, he confirmed everything with Julian.Only after making sure there were no issues did he finally breathe a sigh of relief and ask Julian to hand me the phone."Yes?" I asked, confused about why he needed to speak to me."Our company's recruitment is pretty much done. I ran the numbers, and with our current profits, we can afford to raise the salaries of our interns," he quickly informed."Since you're bringing this up, that means you already hav

    Shannon looked at Patrick.Patrick said, "Tell Rowan to win Luna back. She married someone else out of heartbreak, and that's because of us. Now we have money and are willing to spend it on her. I believe she'll come around. She'll want to come back and be with us again. It just takes time."Patrick wasn't used to staying in such a small place, so he said to Rowan, "Drive us to the hotel.""Alright."Rowan dropped his parents off at the hotel and then returned to his place. Sitting on the couch, he took out his phone and pulled up a photo of Luna.She was sitting by the ocean, turning her head to look at him, her eyes sparkling and filled with love.Rowan couldn't understand how things had gotten to this point.He picked up his phone and texted Luna. "I finally understand why my parents treated you that way back then.""I've known for a while," Luna replied calmly.Rowan was a little surprised. "You knew?""Yeah, I found out a few days ago. But that's your family's issue. It
