Dexie took the brick away from the boy and then casually removed the instruction manual from his hand, placing it between them. The boy frowned but didn’t resist. Dexie was delighted with this development and smiled as she said, “Let’s play together.”The boy, momentarily paralyzed, then nodded in agreement.Dexie had never studied child psychology, so she thought little about what the boy’s actions implied. She simply saw it as a normal reaction. The two then focused on assembling the structure.Before they knew it, the sky had darkened. The two, one older and one younger, remained in the room, putting the model together. Halfway through, they drank some water and ate some snacks that Dexie had taken from the room’s mini-fridge. Both were so absorbed that they lost track of time.Dexie exhaled a breath of relief as they successfully assembled the last component. She looked at the boy and chuckled, saying, “Wonderful! We finally finished assembling it.” She stretched her shoulders

“Paloma, I don't have time to listen to your nonsense," Dexie said firmly.When she realized the other end had gone silent, she frowned and continued speaking. Paloma's behavior was becoming increasingly ridiculous. The most urgent matter now was to open that door and escape as soon as possible."Stop acting. Just a moment ago, your wonderful friend Jessebelle called Oswin. Stop clinging to him, Dexie. Let me tell you, our parents have already decided on our engagement. We will be together soon. You don't stand a chance anymore," Paloma boasted over the phone.Dexie was frozen. They were getting engaged. Her father and mother were desperate. They were making decisions for her. Were they somehow depriving Dexie of free will or choice?It was true. The Hansley family needed funds to pay off their debt. Paloma, her older sister, was the only remaining candidate, and they needed to connect to the Blake family through marriage. However, would Oswin agree to that?When she remembered the

Dexie took a step back and swallowed a gulp of saliva. She smiled bitterly as she said, "I... Honestly, I have no intention of accepting this job. Honestly, I was just...""You were just planning to temporarily substitute for your friend, right?" Luke's expression darkened slightly as he looked at Dexie coldly.Dexie nodded. "Yes, I know nothing about child psychology or autism...""I don't like it when people reject my offers," Luke announced coldly."But why me? Mr. Huxley, you are probably someone who doesn't lack money. You wouldn't have trouble hiring someone specializing in childcare. I'm not doing this because I can't differentiate between right and wrong, or because I'm unwilling. It's just... I'm afraid I won't do well."Dexie, feeling helpless, explained her position to Luke. She didn't dare say too much either. After all, rumors said Luke was a ruthless and heartless person. She was just the adopted daughter of the insignificant Hansley family. She couldn't afford to offend
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 151: Luke's Emotions Hidden Behind A Mask
Luke noticed the change in Number One's expression and was puzzled when he asked with a slight frown on his face, "What do you mean?""Boss, if Miss Hansley were to feed Little Master his medication, everything would probably be fine, right?" Number One ventured to vocalize his thoughts."How is the investigation into last night's events going?" Luke Huxley changed the subject."It was the person from the old residence who drugged you," Number One replied while avoiding the crux of the question."What about that woman last night? Have you found out anything about her?" Luke Huxley asked coldly.Certainly, that girl was one of a kind for having the guts to break into his room."We can't find out anything. Boss, please give us some time. That was really an accident. We don't have many leads or clues," Number One responded.Last night, nothing was out of the ordinary in the mansion. The only strange thing was that an innumerable bodyguard suddenly resigned. He had already sent men to lo
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 152: Little Masters' Caregiver
As he looked through the screen just before, he simply assumed that LittleShrimp had accepted her. That the two could play together in silence was already shocking enough for him. He hadn't paid attention to the other details."Little Shrimp, put on your coat. Dad will take you somewhere!" Luke stood up and pulled Little Shrimp's hand to get him up."Mm?" Little Shrimp raised his head in confusion. Luke said nothing more. He bent down and lifted Little Shrimp. As they walked out, he covered him with a coat.At the door, the secretary and number one stepped forward to attend to them. "Boss, do you want to go home?""I'll take Little Shrimp somewhere. Anna Gray, please visit the Hansley family. I need your help with something." Luke Huxley continued walking towards the elevator as he gave orders.Paloma had been busy sorting out her affairs all afternoon, causing her complexion to considerably pale. As she prepared to enter the Hansley residence, her phone suddenly rang."Hello, Dr. Qu

With a slight frown on his face, he asked, “What do you mean?”“Boss, if Miss Hansley were to give Little Master his medication, everything would probably be fine, right?” Number One voiced his thoughts.Luke changed the subject,“How is the investigation of last night’s events going?”“It was the person from the old residence who drugged you,” Number One replied, skirting the crucial question.“What about that woman last night?

Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 154: Once You Leave, Don't Come Back
“I’m not coming back," Dexie stated firmly.She did not know what Paloma was trying to achieve with her sudden plea. Her expression darkened as she immediately rejected her sister’s request.“Dexie, Mom and Dad miss you a lot. I know you blame me for everything. Come back home. If you return, I will leave. Mom and Dad really miss you,” Paloma’s tone was filled with desperation, a stark contrast to her previous arrogance.Dexie frowned at Paloma’s sudden change in demeanor. “What act are you putting on right now? I don’t have time to deal with you. Please, leave.”The steak she had just prepared was getting cold, and Dexie had no intention of engaging with Paloma.“Once you leave, don’t come back. Paloma, Mom and Dad trust you, but I know what kind of person you really are. In the future, I will not hesitate to confront you every time you come. I won’t be polite.”Paloma was secretly pleased that Dexie had reacted exactly as she had expected. She didn’t need to mock her sister further;
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 155
Once Paloma left, Dexie let out a sigh of relief. She composed herself, but when he turned around, Luke had already walked straight into her apartment. He looked at her shoe rack and noticed that it was filled with women's shoes."Does that mean a man doesn't stay here?"A corner of his lips slid into an inexplicable smile, though that smile disappeared almost instantly. Then, nonchalantly, he picked up a pair of women's slippers with one hand and put them on. Just as Dexie turned around, she witnessed this amusing scene."Um, Mr. Huxley, why are you here?" Dexie quickly closed the door and followed him.He made himself at home and led the boy straight to the living room. Then, he casually sat on her sofa. She was truly speechless. He possessed a tall stature and an air of nobility. When he sat in her small and compact living room, it made the space seem extremely cramped. It was a complete mismatch.He ignored Dexie and looked around. Since Little Master had already woken up, he plac
