Seeing him like that, Dexie couldn’t help but take a step back and looked at him defensively while saying, “You... what did you say?”“What? My wife, do you have hearing problems?” Luke arched his eyebrows and said with a smile as he looked at Dexie.Not daring to make eye contact with Luke, Dexie stammered, “Luke, I told you not to call me that, and besides, I am not your wife.” She quickly lowered her head. With both hands pulling at the hem of her clothes, she didn’t dare to look at Luke at all.“Hmm... We already got the marriage certificate, so if you’re not my wife, what are you?” Luke chuckled and whispered in her ear.Dexie quickly raised her head and looked at Luke as she said, “But, didn’t you say... that you wouldn’t pressure me until I’m ready?”Luke said, “So you... don’t want to?”Dexie was about to refuse, but when she raised her head and looked at Luke, she saw him looking at her with pity. He seemed especially aggrieved. Dexie didn’t dare to say the words on the tip

“What....”Dexie thought he was going to make a move on her, so she gasped, but Luke just planted a kiss on her forehead and said, “Stop screaming. I won’t touch you. I’m exhausted today.”While holding Dexie, he fell asleep after a while.That day was exhausting.Holding Dexie’s body felt very comfortable. Her clothes were soft, and she was soft too. She also had a slight scent of shower gel and shampoo. It felt very nice to smell the fragrance while embracing her soft body, so he fell asleep after a while.The next morning, Dexie and Luke woke up to the sound of someone sniffing.Dexie rubbed her eyes, stretched her waist, and saw Luke beside her. After a while, she realized what was happening. Luke smiled at her and gave her a kiss on the forehead.Before Dexie could feel embarrassed, she heard a jealous snort.Luke and Dexie snapped back to their senses. They turned their heads and saw Danny, who had been standing at the foot of the bed at some point, looking at them. He had tears

Danny's words were very coherent, so Dexie understood what was happening immediately."Why doesn't Mrs. Miller like you?" Dexie thought Ava looked very kind on the surface.She seemed hypocritical.But children didn't understand hypocrisy at all. People like Ava usually pleased children.Even if Danny was distant, he wouldn't say he didn't like Ava for no reason.Danny's fingers played with the wings of the Lego plane he had just inserted as he looked thoughtfully at Dexie. After a moment of silence, he seemed to think of something and said with a serious expression on his face, "Mrs. Miller's eyes never smile. Only when Dad and Grandpa were here, she smile at me and give me food, but her eyes never smiled. She wouldn't smile when Dad and Grandpa weren't here. Mommy, is she smiling falsely?"After Danny said that, Dexie didn't know how to respond.Danny was so young, but his heart was pure.A child like him could feel who treated him well and who deserved him.Dexie was stunned and co

Dexie was not scared or intimidated. She looked Victor in the eyes calmly and composed, then said in a respectful and confident tone, "Mr. Huxley, hello."Because of her confident way of addressing him, Victor couldn't help but feel a little impressed, and appreciation shone in his eyes. At least she had a sense of decorum and manners."Miss Hansley, what do you think of the paintings here?" Victor nodded slightly, then looked at Dexie and suddenly asked that question. Surprised, Dexie looked at him in surprise. She didn't expect him to ask her that question.Although she didn't know how to respond, Dexie nodded and said sincerely, "The paintings here... all the paintings are exquisite."Victor smiled and said, "Many of these are very rare. Which one is your favorite?" This question was even more puzzling. Was he trying to test her ability to recognize paintings by asking this question? Or maybe he was just asking casually? She still felt he had a hidden motive.Dexie smiled and said,

“Miss Hansley, are you willing to understand the difficulties of an old man like me?”He forced a smile and said, “My oldest son had ruined himself. Despite his extraordinary nature, he harbored a fondness for a common woman. That woman was solely focused on accumulating wealth for our family. I suppose they shared hobbies, but they weren’t compatible. He lacked the qualifications to find love in his life. Marriage for the Huxley family members is about securing their family’s future prosperity, and the same fate befell him.”Victor sighed deeply and continued, “Marriage between families of blue blood of equal prominence and prestige has never been about prejudices, nor is it outdated. If two individuals come from vastly different backgrounds, their education and worldliness will be significantly different. There will be no happiness between two incompatible people.”As she waited for him to continue, Dexie remained silent.Victor continued, “Miss Hansley, you’re smart enough to know

Dexie made eye contact with Victor fearlessly, then smiled and said, “Even if it is so, I have no complaints or regrets. Don’t worry, Mr. Huxley, I have never been someone who values material wealth over freedom. I will prove it.”The expression in Victor’s eyes suggested Dexie was slightly impressed, but he then forced a smile and said, “To be honest, if your family background had been better, I might have accepted this marriage.” You appear brave and unique, but, although you appear meek, you are actually a very proud person. I think when you discover the truth, you will definitely not stay and be a substitute for someone else.”He paused for a moment and said, “Since you are so determined, and today is New Year’s Eve, let’s treat it as if we had said nothing and celebrated the New Year.”Dexie also smiled calmly and nodded slightly when she said, “I came here specifically to invite you, so I also want to thank you for putting a face on me.”Victor nodded and said, “You can go first

It was a message sent from that number since the last time.Although it was from a familiar number, the information surprised Dexie."Unexpectedly, you went from being a lover to his official wife so quickly. I saw you that day and you were not remarkable, but it turns out I underestimated you."A short sentence revealed the identity of the other party and made Dexie's curse so incomplete.Dexie's expression turned ugly. She immediately suppressed her emotions to regain composure.Everyone was present at this moment, so Dexie couldn't let her expression reveal things."Danny, shall we go out for some fresh air?" Dexie pulled Danny and said, "It's boring to watch them play cards."Danny sat on the carpet and played chess with her. Upon hearing Dexie's words, he instinctively shook his head.Dexie casually put the phone in her pocket and said nonchalantly, "I'll go for a walk. Whoever wins later, I'll make a cup of tea when I come back."They laughed and asked her to come back quickly.

At the head of the bedroom, there was a brightly colored portrait. The brushstroke was skillful and the description was vivid. On the canvas, the beautiful woman on the swing looked surprisingly realistic.Those eyes seemed to look directly at Dexie. If Dexie hadn’t looked closer, she would have even thought it was a photo and not a painting.However, it was just that... the painting on this canvas, or the person in this painting, deeply shocked her.The person in the oil painting really looked like Dexie. Whether in terms of aura or appearance, the person in the painting was surprisingly similar to Dexie.Even Dexie felt that the woman in the painting was an older version of herself. With a peaceful expression, the woman in the painting smiled kindly and virtuously.Her eyes sparkled. She must have loved the man who painted her because her eyes were full of affection. She was so surprised that she didn’t come to her senses for a long time. She slowly approached the painting.Her eyes

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

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
