After breakfast, they heard a knock on the door. Gavin stood up and said, “Sir, I brought the things.”With that, he looked inside and saw Dexie sitting on the sofa next to the bed. It seemed like they had reconciled. He felt a little relieved. He wanted nothing more than for everything to go well between his boss and Miss Hansley. After closing the door, Luke placed the marriage certificate in front of Dexie.“Look.”Dexie still couldn’t believe it. She took it from Luke and saw that it contained two red books. “Is this a marriage certificate?” Dexie still couldn’t believe it and asked Luke incredulously.Seeing Dexie’s surprised expression, Luke said, “Open it and look.” Dexie left the box on the table, took the marriage certificate, and examined it carefully. After looking at it, she was astonished.“It’s a marriage c
She had a fever last night. Later, Luke arrived and took her away immediately, but the other party did not take photos of Luke or them arguing. They only took a picture of Noah hugging her, so it was intentional.Since the other party only sent a carefully selected angle photo of Noah and her, the target was probably her or Noah.In that case, who could be the mastermind? What was the purpose of the other party? Regardless of the other party’s purpose, it would not be good for her or Noah in any way!More importantly, someone anonymously posted these photos. It would be easier to remove it if it were a media outlet, but it was a personal post. Here, if they wanted to remove it, they had to find the blogger.If the other party had malicious intentions, they probably couldn’t find that person so quickly.
"Yes, sir." Gavin lowered his head and didn't dare to ask more.Luke nodded and said, "I'll go back alone. You should stay and investigate the mole in the hotel."Gavin said, "Are you suspecting...""The hotel has always had strict security measures. Since that group of reporters could enter, the matter is probably not so simple."But, said Luke, "Investigate it for the sake of appearances."Luke's words had a hidden meaning, so Gavin looked at him puzzled, but then immediately nodded and said, "I understand."Dexie was a little confused, so Luke said, "Let's go home first, and I'll tell you on the way."Reporters couldn't enter the Huxley family's house.Dexie nodded and went to the garage with Luke. The car drove out, and the garage exit was crowded with reporters. They frantically took pictures of Luke's car.Probably because there were too many people, the security guards couldn't stop them all. Dexie frowned and gave Luke a worried look.Luke seemed calm and composed as he drove
“She wants to use this issue to kick you out.” Dexie frowned and became even more worried.“That wouldn’t be enough. Her little tricks won’t scare me away. But they will make things difficult for me for a while,” Luke shook his head and told Dexie.“Will it be troublesome?” Dexie asked.“It depends on how big the impact is,” Luke said with a solemn expression on his face as he drove the car.“She was well prepared, so the situation wouldn’t be easy, but the whip on the back can’t be too heavy. But if she doesn’t have a sense of achievement, her downfall wouldn’t be so crushing."“I have my arrangements. Just endure the gossip for a couple of days,” Luke said with a stern expression on his face.“But if you don’t go out and stay at home, the gossip won’t reach your ears, and things will be fine.”Dexie looked at Luke and shook her head, saying, “There are only two days left until New Year. I want to go home to spend New Year with my family.”“Does that mean you won’t celebrate New Year
Danny's words caught Dexie completely off guard. She couldn't help but feel moved."Danny, are you doing this for my sake?" Dexie looked at Danny in disbelief, her eyes filled with surprise and incredulity.Danny nodded and said matter-of-factly, "Of course, you are family to me. Dad said you would become my mom, eventually. Whatever happens, Dad and I will protect you. No one can intimidate you."The expression in Danny's eyes was firm and indeed, it seemed to convey that there was nothing strange about this.Dexie looked at Danny, feeling touched and happy in her heart, but at this moment, she couldn't express her emotions in words. She quickly reached out and gathered Danny into her arms to give him a tight hug because she was feeling overwhelmed."Sister, are you so moved?" After Dexie hugged Danny, she was surprised, but then gently patted him and said, "This is what men should do."Danny's blunt remark made Dexie even more moved, and she had a deeper understanding of Luke.In th
“Of course, I didn’t think that, but it’s hard for people not to misinterpret.”Dexie laughed a little uncomfortable as she thought about how not only did she misunderstand,. When she saw the clothes in her room, she felt like they belonged to Danny’s biological mother and it hurt her heart. She hadn’t even worn those clothes yet.As her imagination ran wild, Luke reached out and grabbed her. With a slight force, he pulled her towards him. She lost her balance and fell onto Luke’s leg.“What? Were you jealous of that?” Luke squeezed her chin and asked with a smile on his face.Dexie whiffled her head. She blushed profusely and stuttered as she said, “I, I wouldn’t get jealous over something so trivial. I’m not that boring!”“Really?” Luke arched his eyebrows slightly and asked with a smile.“Of cou
Luke didn’t respond to Dexie, but he looked at her with a serious expression in his eyes.“Missing in action,” he said.“What’s wrong?” she asked.“Have you ever thought about how much dowry you will get after marrying me?” Luke asked seriously.“Dowry?” Dexie froze, staring at Luke in shock.Luke nodded and continued, “Since you don’t like the Jones family, why do you have to try? It would be more beneficial to use the dowry I gave you to establish your own company in an industry you enjoy and are familiar with. Wouldn’t it feel beneficial to be your own boss?”Dexie was even more surprised when she heard this. “But... Luke, if you give me the dowry, I will also have to do it.”Luke nodded slowly and said, “Since you don’t like the people from the Jones family, wouldn’t it be nicer to be your own boss? Being the owner of the continent’s largest restaurant chain would make the Huxley family rich.”“What’s the rush? We can get married after you graduate. The Huxley family considers thi
“Jessebelle, why? Is it so serious?" Dexie was surprised and couldn’t help lowering her voice.“Yes, it’s severe,” Jessebelle said solemnly.“Dexie, this is important. Although we have been friends for many years, I must warn you that this concerns the lives of many people.”Dexie nodded and told Jessebelle, “Wait a moment; I will close the door of the room.”With that, she closed the door and shut the window. Then, she sat on the sofa and whispered into the phone, “Jessebelle, don’t worry. I won’t tell anyone, not even Luke or my parents, so you can calmly tell me.”“Okay.” Jessebelle took a deep breath and remained silent for a while before telling Dexie, “Dexie, the Claire family is connected to Danny’s biological mother.”“What?” Dexie was even more surprised and said, “Danny’s biological mother?”“Well, this matter is complicated and related to a family secret, so I can’t tell you too much, but the death of Danny’s biological mother almost certainly has something to do with Luke.
