Dexie was shocked and asked Jessebelle on the phone with shock.“Do you want me to help you investigate this matter?”Jessebelle nodded, and her tone became increasingly solemn as she said, “Yes, Dexie, this is not just for me but also for you.”Dexie couldn’t help but ask, “Jessebelle, do you want me to find out the truth?”“Dexie, this is very dangerous, but Luke has sincere feelings for you now, so all you have to do is pay more attention. If you can find any clues, that would be best; if you can’t find any, don’t risk it. If Luke goes downhill, no one can afford to resist his anger!”Jessebelle’s tone was solemn, and when she said this, she sounded scared and apprehensive. “Dexie, this matter is very dangerous. Don’t be hasty and let nature take its course. It’s just that you are in the Greco family’s house now; Luke trusts you, and Danny likes you so much, so it’s easier for you to investigate the truth than for me.”Dexie remained silent. She didn’t know how to respond to Jesseb
"Ah, Luke, no, I can do it myself." Dexie hurriedly turned off the water, but by the time she did, Luke had already made the call."Hello, is this the principal?" Holding his phone, he spoke as he walked away. It seemed like the other person had already answered the call."Oh, so the situation is like this... I wonder if there is a first-year student named Dexie Hansley in your school. Yes, yes, it's her."Luke winked at Dexie, then sat at the dining table and said solemnly, "Oh, nothing, she... She's my wife, um, yes, she's married; she is."Dexie looked at Luke in surprise and wondered how he could reveal such things so easily.This made her think of what Jessebelle had told her. He didn't seem concerned at all about his affairs being known. Instead, it seemed like he wanted as many people as possible to know.He looked at Dexie and saw Dexie's anxious expression. He shook his head slightly, as if to express that it didn't matter.Feeling a little helpless, Dexie frowned, but she co
Dexie regained her senses and said quickly, “I’ll be out soon.” Jessebelle lowered her voice and whispered, “Hurry. I’ll wait for you.”After Dexie hung up the phone, Gavin said, “Ma’am, let me explain how to drive it. Five minutes will be enough. It won’t take much of your time.”Dexie asked, “Gavin, is this... Did Luke buy this for me?”Gavin, who had overheard Luke’s words, chuckled and replied, “What do you think, ma’am?”“I see,” she said, feeling touched. He always took her words seriously, even her casual remarks.“Ma’am, Mr. Huxley has never cared so much about any woman. You are the only one he truly cares for. Mr. Huxley loves you, but he struggles to express it, so please be understanding. He may appear cold on the surface, but he genuinely likes you,” Gavin said earnestly in defense of Luke.Luke was so emotionally disoriented that Gavin couldn’t help but want to help him. Although he had never had a girlfriend, he had seen many romantic dramas!“Gavin, please call me by m
Jessebelle looked around cautiously and after confirming that no one was paying attention to them, she said solemnly, “Dexie, I found out from my grandmother today that my cousin left a box.”With a perplexed expression, Dexie furrowed her brow and asked, “A box?”“Yes,” Jessebelle approached Dexie with an increasingly serious expression and said in a low voice, “If we find the box, we can uncover the truth.”“How did Mrs. Claire find out?” Dexie asked.Jessebelle lowered her voice and said, “When my cousin and Luke’s older brother had just returned, she left the box and told my grandmother.”Dexie couldn’t help but ask, “Where is that box right now?”“The box is still at the Huxley family’s house.” Looking at Dexie, Jessebelle’s expression was very solemn as she said, “It’s at Barrington Manor of the Huxley family.”“Barrington Manor?” Remembering something, Dexie furrowed her brow slightly.She had once gone to the Huxley family to deliver wine, and it was with Luke at Barrington Ma
Dexie’s family looked back. It was indeed Bleanor. Dario and Jocelyn followed her. They probably also came out today to buy New Year’s gifts. They were dressed in glamorous designer clothes. Compared to Dario and Jocelyn, Dexie’s parents, Howard and Tara, looked very shabby.Dexie felt uncomfortable. She frowned as she looked at Dario and Jocelyn and said, “Dad, Mom.”No matter what, they had raised her for so many years. Howard and Jocelyn seemed to have guessed their identities and awkwardly greeted them. They didn’t know what to do.Eric was no longer smiling at this moment. He stood to the side coldly looking at Paloma.Paloma timidly shouted, “Dad, Mom, brother.”The two elders nodded, but Eric seemed cold and very unhappy.“Dexie, I haven’t seen you in a long time. My parents missed you a lot. What happened last time... was my fault. Now that things have been resolved, how about we reconcile?” He pulled Dexie affectionately.Dexie pushed Paloma’s hand away and said, “Really? Yo
Eric's expression sank as he said coldly, "Mom, are you still thinking about that ungrateful brat?""She is your sister no matter what. Our family is poor, so it's understandable that she doesn't want to acknowledge us," Howard quickly interjected.Thinking back to the day they were invited to attend Paloma's wedding and had an accident as a result, Dexie sighed.Paloma was very lucky. Both her biological parents and her adoptive parents treated her very well.When Eric saw Dexie was silent, he looked at his parents and said, "Stop talking, or Dexie will get angry.""No," Dexie shook her head and said, "You two have raised Paloma for so many years, so you should have affection for her, but... you have also seen that Paloma doesn't want to get involved with us. I have always wanted to come back, but the thought stopped me they only want money and don't want to see me. That's why I... haven't come to see you until now.""Paloma... ah, the poverty of our family marked her mentally. Dexie
To verify that she was being followed, Dexie slowed down and then made another turn at an intersection.But it didn’t matter if she turned left or right, or if she was fast or slow, the car was constantly following her.Dexie looked in the rearview mirror and saw the car following behind. From the passenger seat, a camera lens protruded and frantically took pictures of her license plate.Were they... paparazzi?She felt even more uneasy.She was alone at this moment and being followed by paparazzi. What should she do?She wondered if she should call Luke.She was now facing so many people from the Huxley family. If she called him now for something so trivial, those who already opposed them being together would have even more reasons to object.With the paparazzi following her, it was not convenient for her to go anywhere at that moment.The maid had just said that Dexie could drive this car straight to Barrington Manor.The last time she went to deliver wine, her second-hand car was p
“Using his slightly above-average appearance, he approached Mr. Huxley by unscrupulous means.”An elderly man looked Dexie up and down. His eyes had a disdainful and critical expression, as if to convey that Luke was out of Dexie’s league.The expression in his eyes made Dexie feel very uncomfortable, and she immediately frowned.In the room, five to six elderly people, all between sixty and eighty years old, heard the movement at the door and all looked. Among them, Luke’s father, Victor, was sitting next to Luke. Everyone looked at her with expressions of disdain and disapproval. Victor’s expression was even uglier. With an IV drip hanging next to his hands, he obviously attended the family meeting despite his illness.Dexie’s expression immediately turned ugly. She was really deceived and tricked into coming here.However, who would do such a thing? Dexie’s gaze immediately fell on Ava’s face.Dexie felt she was the most likely suspect.Ava was probably doing this to make things di
