As the usher left, Dexie looked at Luke with concern and asked, “Luke, won’t this affect you?”Dexie was aware of her own identity. Nothing terrible would happen to her.When Luke noticed how uncomfortable she was, he didn’t feel repulsed or dissatisfied. A hint of joy passed through his eyes. However, his expression remained blank as he pretended indifference.“It’s fine.”She was already his wife—his legal wife. They even had a marriage certificate, so how could it affect him?“Dad, I’m sleepy.” Danny murmured softly beside them. He didn’t like being in crowded places. Now that the place was full of people, he felt tired.“Are you tired?” Dexie quickly asked with concern.Danny nodded before looking at Dexie with pity.“I’ll have someone prepare an upstairs room. I’ll take him for a nap, please wait for me,” Luke told Dexie after a moment of hesitation.Dexie replied, “Why don’t I go instead?”Luke stood up and shook his head. “It’s too heavy. You’re not strong enough.”“Oh.” Dexie

“No matter who I am, there are proper procedures for everything. Today is the engagement banquet of the Blake family, you shouldn’t make such a fuss over someone like Polly.” Dexie’s face darkened. She sat back down and ignored the hotel manager. When the hotel manager saw this, he couldn’t help but walk forward.“Miss, please stand up.”Dexie turned to look at him coldly. “Let me give you some advice. Don’t risk your job to win Polly’s favor. I’m not someone you can afford to offend.”The hotel manager was perplexed for a moment.Inexplicably, the girl Miss Brighton referred to as the thief seemed to exude a lofty and imposing aura, even though she was just sitting there. However, he could have been imagining it.The hotel manager gathered his courage and said, “Miss, this is the first time I’ve seen someone act so rebelliously that they’ve even been caught stealing. Follow me to my office right now!”If she were someone he couldn’t afford to offend, Miss Polly wouldn’t have confront

Luke’s wife had been accused of theft. They would search her bag publicly!This line alone was enough to pique curiosity. The wealthy woman acted with great caution. She even wore white silk gloves to avoid scratching the expensive bag.All the attendees were rich and influential figures in the city. However, few of them could afford to carry a bag worth more than $150,000 so casually.The crowd watched. First, she took out a tissue paper packet from the bag.Then, a baby bottle. Huh?!Next, she pulled out a small bottle filled with powdered milk!What the hell?There was a sanitary pad as well. However, it was wrapped in plastic, completely separate from all the baby items.Had she used such an expensive bag to store these things?! Dexie blushed. Luke suddenly whispered in her ear, “Your period started? Why didn’t you say anything earlier?”After this, he gestured towards Gavin.Gavin immediately made a hand gesture, and a maid soon approached from the corner of the banquet hall. The

Paloma quickly changed the subject. “Dexie, is that person next to your boyfriend?”Before Dexie could respond, Luke’s eyes turned icy behind his mask. He looked at Paloma and said, “I am not her boyfriend.”“Oh? Then you are.” When Paloma heard this, she secretly felt pleased. Initially, she had assumed that Luke would really lower himself for her.“I am her husband,” Luke continued casually as he stood next to Dexie.“Husband?” Paloma was stunned. She could no longer speak fluently as she stuttered the word.Luke nodded and raised an eyebrow. “Is there a problem with that?”“Dexie, when did you get married? Why didn’t you tell us? You didn’t even mention it to our parents.” Paloma awkwardly smiled.Before Dexie could respond, Luke turned to Dexie, looking confused.Intentionally, he asked, “Dexie, aren’t your parents from the William family? What does this have to do with the Hansley family?”Paloma was perplexed. She had originally intended to mock Dexie’s identity as an adoptive d

“Missing in action!”In the blink of an eye, Paloma seemed to have lost all sense of rationality. She charged forward and tried to grab Dexie by the neck. Dexie stepped back with a smile. Luke stepped forward and immediately blocked Paloma, then pushed her aside. During the chaos, Mrs. Blake took the lab reports and flipped through them. The more she read, the paler her face became. Her whole figure trembled, and she was on the verge of fainting.“How... how... how could this be? Oswin, what kind of woman did you get involved with?” Mrs. Blake groaned in distress. Tears filled her eyes.Oswin was the elder son of the Blake family, and many people looked up to him. The family expected him to be their pillar of strength. After forging a marriage bond with the Hansley family, the Blake family’s F&B hotel sector experienced significant growth. But this marriage had turned into the biggest joke in the city.Mother, what happened to you? Calm down first...Oswin had always been a cultured m

“Luke, I... I slept with another man.”As she said this, tears rolled uncontrollably down her cheeks. She seemed to be in some indescribable agony.The world labeled him as a ruthless and impassive man. However, he really treated Dexie very well. He even prepared clothes and accessories for her, his employee. Even if Dexie were the biggest fool in the world, she wouldn’t believe he did all this for Danny’s sake.Luke was stunned when he heard her words. Finally, he realized this and smiled smugly. He reached out a hand and wiped the tears from her face. He spoke in a hoarse voice when he said, “Silly girl, are you talking about the night Paloma made you deliver wine?”Dexie nodded. “Mmhm. How did you know?"She immediately came to an understanding. Since Luke hired her to take care of Danny, she would naturally have done an extremely thorough background check on her.Luke wiped away his tears. He loo

The doorbell interrupted Luke, and Dexie couldn’t catch his last words. She had no choice but to follow Luke to the door. She could vaguely sense that Luke had something important to say, but someone had rung the doorbell before she could hear him speak. They opened the door. Dario and Jocelyn were outside.The couple stood at the door. Their faces didn’t look very good, and Jocelyn seemed to have shed some tears. Dario had a rather unpleasant expression on his face, mixed with a hint of discomfort. Luke frowned slightly. He stepped aside and spoke to Dexie, who was behind him.“They are looking for you.” Dexie nodded and walked towards the door. She asked, “Mother, father, why have you come?”“Dexie, are you free to talk for a while?” Jocelyn did her best to hold back the tears as she choked on her words.She nervously looked at Luke, who was behind her. Obvio

Dexie was in a state of shock when she heard what Luke said. Slowly, a smile spread across her face, replacing the despair within her. However, she shed even more tears.“Luke, are you telling the truth?”Luke nodded and hugged her tightly. It was almost as if he wanted her to melt into his body. “I only realized this a while ago. It was an accident, but I didn’t dare tell you because... I was worried you would start avoiding me out of fear.”He continued, “If I had known you were suffering so much, I would have told you the truth much earlier.”She sobbed. “Luke, you idiot! I’ve been so upset all this time, and it’s all your fault. Did you know how worried and scared I was?”She pounded her fists against his muscular chest. But to him, it just felt like a tickl

This matter was troublesome.“Are they in the restaurant right now?” Dexie calmed down and asked.This batch of lunchboxes could not be returned. They would have to resolve it in some other way.“Yes, they are in the restaurant,” Eric quickly said, “If this matter is not resolved, I’m afraid of reporters will find out, and then it will be even worse for us.”“I know. Keep them occupied, and I’ll come soon.” Dexie had not yet thought of a solution. The only way to solve this was to buy them new ones. However, if the other party refused, she wouldn’t be able to do anything.When she thought about this, Dexie frowned and had a headache.What can be done about it?For now, they could only take it one step at a time and try to stall. After all, the boxes were in their hands, and it was impossible to return them. So, they would have to resolve it in another way. As for Dexie, she certainly was not willing to return them.Dexie told the driver to leave quickly. When she arrived at the resta

The burning red roses were arranged in the shape of a large heart that was beautiful beyond words. Dexie instantly understood why Luke had asked her to come. It turned out to be a surprise for her."Wow, what beautiful flowers. Dad, did you give them to Mom?" Danny's voice came from somewhere, so Dexie turned around and saw both Danny and Luke standing behind her, smiling at her.Dexie turned to look at Luke and laughed when she said, "How can you continue to act so frivolous when you are the president of the Huxley Group?"Although she said this, she felt extremely happy.Luke approached Dexie and couldn't help but grab her waist with a smile on his face. He said, "As long as this frivolous trick can make my wife happy, it's worth it."Dexie couldn't refute a single word he said, so she smiled and nodded as she said, "Okay, you're right."Only then did Luke smile and ask Dexie, "Do you like it?"Dexie nodded and said, "Yes, I like it."Which woman wouldn't like flowers? Which woman w

He threw the remote control he had in his hand at the television, which was hanging on the wall. It made a loud noise when he threw it, and the television wobbled a bit as if it were about to fall at any moment.On one hand, Weston's face was expressionless. He wore a mask, so he could have had an expression on his face, but it couldn't be seen.He walked towards the television and reached out to gently hold it before turning his head to look at Zoey and said in a deep voice, "What's your plan?""I underestimated this woman," Zoey breathed twice to calm herself down before saying, "I can't believe she came up with an idea so quickly, but why do those lunch boxes being sterilized look so familiar?"Weston's voice showed slight fluctuations as he said, "Those were the ones, Mrs. Jensen prepared to donate to the children at the orphanage last time. She bought more than necessary and intended to return them.""In that case, how did they end up in her hands?" Zoey's eyes were cold, and her

In this kind of situation, William’s Fast Food would make headlines regardless of the news, so it was a good deal for them, and they could also take advantage of this opportunity to promote the restaurant.A reporter pushed through to ask Dexie, “Miss Hansley, you’re not deliberately promoting things to get in the headlines, are you?”Upon hearing this, Dexie was not offended but simply smiled at the reporter in the crowd and chuckled as she said, “You probably haven’t worked in any other industry, let alone the food industry, have you? Everyone will make headlines, but no one will use this method to do so. Wouldn’t that be counterproductive? You’re joking, but that joke isn’t funny.”After Dexie said this, the reporters around looked at the reporter strangely, and the reporter also seemed to realize she was out of place and did not speak again.Seeing this, Dexie said, “Alright, everyone, please come in. If you want to take photos of something, do so, and if you have questions, ask.

“Dexie, what’s the point of ordering a cabinet disinfection machine now?”Eric was confused and said, “There are already several units in the store.”“That’s not enough. By the way, instruct the staff to go to the store and remove all the cabinets from the cabinet machine so they don’t take up space. The kitchen will continue to operate as usual today. There’s no need to be deliberate, but everyone should be careful not to make the slightest mistake. Later, there may be reporters coming in to take photos. No one has to do anything consciously, just follow the usual routine,” Dexie told Eric.“Dexie, what do you want to do?” Eric was confused. He had never experienced this kind of situation before, and it was such a big spectacle that he was now a little scared.Dexie’s voice sounded extraordinarily calm and serene as she said, “Eric, I have already thought of a solution, so don’t be anxious and do as I say. I will communicate with you later.”“Have you already figured out what to do?”

“Did you just find out?” Dexie asked with a gossipy expression.Luke nodded and said, “Yes, I just found out, so I’m telling you.”Dexie was very puzzled, and after thinking for a moment, she said, “With this evidence, Ava will be convicted in front of your father in the future and directly expelled from the Huxley family. Without her interference, your father would probably not have me a hard time so often in the future.”“Although my father doesn’t agree with this marriage, if she were an understanding person and advised my father, our relationship wouldn’t be so bad.” Luke’s tone of voice cooled.“So when are you going to tell your father?” Dexie asked.Luke sighed and told Dexie, “Not yet. Now is not the time. Regarding the previous maritime incident and someone who bought internal shares of the Huxley family, she and my uncle were the ones who conspired and joined forces to cooperate with the York family.”So that’s how it was.Dexie nodded and said to Luke, “What about... Quenti

As he spoke, he approached Dexie and once again tapped her cheek twice. The meaning couldn’t be more obvious.He had to kiss her. Dexie’s mouth pouted as she looked indignantly at Luke, then reluctantly moved and gave him a peck on the cheek while saying, “You can say it now, right?”Luke said with a serious face, “I feel like there wasn’t enough sincerity.” Luke seemed quite serious.Upon hearing this, Dexie snorted and said, “You’re playing with me.”Luke laughed and said, “Letting my wife kiss me is not a joke, right?”Dexie was defenseless and said, “So, what do you want?”Luke calmly said, “Just a kiss on the lips.”Upon hearing this, Dexie blushed as she said, “Luke, you, you... rascal...”However, Luke acted pitifully as he said, “God, to ask for a kiss from my wife, I even have to use this kind of trick. Don’t you think I’m pitiful?”When he said that, he looked at Dexie with a pitiful expression, and his eyes were filled with complaints, as if Dexie had done something unforgi

Dexie nodded as she looked at the distress and anguish in Sabrina’s eyes, and couldn’t help but force a smile when she said to Sabrina, “I never expected that one day, meeting my mother would also require cunning.”Sabrina smiled bitterly, her tone becoming helpless and sad as she told Dexie, “Dexie, hold on a little longer. Just... you can’t reveal this matter to anyone now, for your safety. Your restaurant also has good business, so I’m afraid it could cause trouble, so you must be more careful.”Dexie smiled and said, “There’s nothing to be aggrieved about when I can see mom. I’m thrilled, and I won’t tell anyone yet. Mom, be careful when you go back alone and don’t expose yourself.”After Dexie finished speaking, she wiped Sabrina’s tears and took out her makeup cushion, asking, “Do you mind if I use this to fix mom’s makeup?” Sabrina quickly took Dexie’s hand and said, “Silly girl, why would mom mind?”Dexie opened the cushion, dabbed away Sabrina’s tear marks, before smiling an
Ex-Husband, You Don't Own me Chapter 326
Sabrina's voice was sad and relieved, making Dexie also overwhelmed with emotion. She first stiffened for a moment, then hugged Sabrina tighter and whispered, "Mom, I also thought I would never find my biological mother again, but I never thought it would be you. Mom..."As if she had been waiting for a long time, as if she had been waiting for a century, Dexie couldn't help but scream repeatedly.Sabrina, who looked so much like her, was her mother...Sherry also wiped her tears aside and said, "Look at us, this is a joyful occasion, so why are we crying? It wouldn't be good for people to see us when we go out later! Miss Dexie and Mrs. Jensen are both kind-hearted people, so you two deserve to reunite. I finally achieved something this time."If it weren't for Sherry's words this time, no one would have remembered this matter. She didn't want to take credit for it, but she was trying to joke and lighten the mood so that mother and daughter wouldn't continue crying without thinking o
