Dvlan burst into laughter immediately and said to Dexie seriously, “Why should I doubt you? I believe you wouldn’t hide this kind of thing from me, and there’s really no need to conceal it.”

Dexie sighed in relief and said, “But if we investigate now, it will only make the situation worse. If I admit it publicly... it will minimize the negative impact of the matter. I’ve thought about it. I could start by apologizing to her.”

“No way.”

Before Dexie’s words could fall, Luke interrupted, saying, “You are my woman. How can you let a scheming bitch like Paloma harm you?”

“So... are there surveillance cameras nearby?” Dexie asked.

Luke shook his head and said, “There are no surveillance cameras in the owners’ residences or in private places. The only way is to let Paloma admit it.”

“Let her admit it herself? Why would she admit it herself?” Dexie frowned and said, “She created this elaborate plan and isn’t even afraid to risk her life to frame you. Why would she contradict herself in publi

    Without knowing how to respond, Paloma stammered as she said, “You...”Ava snorted coldly and said, “You have guts. You dare to incriminate a Huxley family member!” Everyone present was incredible.Abruptly, she rephrased her statement, asserting that she had fallen independently, and attempted to implicate Dexie in her fall.It was just that if she did this out of envy, then why did she suddenly change her words again?Dexie also felt very puzzled. Paloma took a significant risk, even putting her life in danger, but then abruptly changed her mind.None of this made sense. She couldn’t help but wonder what Luke had whispered in her ear.As soon as Ava’s words fell, Paloma hurriedly reached out and grabbed the hem of Dexie’s clothes. With tears in her eyes, she said, “Dexie, I was wrong. It was my fault. Please forgive me. I regret it. I won’t dare to do it again. I was envious of you. I should be cursed. I heard that today was an important day for the Huxley family, so I thought that

    “I’ve already informed her, and she will understand when she inquires.” Don’t worry, she won’t drag the Hansley family down. You can see her when you visit the hospital.A bit exasperated, Dexie rubbed her temples and told Jocelyn, “Mom, I won’t go to the Hansley family’s house tomorrow. It would be inconvenient because you will be at the hospital.”“Dexie, you need to return as soon as Paloma leaves the hospital.” Since things have come to this point, Jocelyn couldn’t say much.She sighed and apologized to Dexie, “Dexie, it was all my fault. In the past, because she was the lost daughter of your father and me, we were biased towards her. We didn’t expect her doing so, and as a result, you endured many grievances because of our actions.”Dexie felt a mix of emotions in her heart. She sighed and said, “Mom, you’re exaggerating.” In the past, I used to be insensitive and ignorant. Now, I understand everything, but..."After a brief pause, Dexie sighed and solemnly told Jocelyn, “However

    Luke scratched his lips with his fingertips and looked at Dexie’s plump lips, as if he were remembering the feeling of that kiss at that moment. The lustful expression in his eyes made Dexie feel very uncomfortable. She bit her lip and, after stepping back, said, “If you try anything funny again, I’ll be angry.”Luke nodded hurriedly and said, “I’ll tell you now, but... are you sure you don’t want to go see Danny first? This is a long story.”Dexie frowned and said, “How can it be a long story? I saw you whispering to her for a few seconds. It was just a sentence or two. How can it be so long?”Luke said, “It was a sentence, but there’s more. If I don’t explain it clearly, you won’t know what I’m talking about, so...”He raised his eyebrows, as if asking Dexie if she understood what he meant. After he said this, Dexie nodded slowly and said, “Okay, I understand. Let’s go see Danny first.”Luke promised her, not to break his word. Now, he was more concerned about Danny.When they went

    Luke’s words surprised Dexie. She looked at him in disbelief as he said, “Dead?”Luke nodded. His expression was very solemn as he said, “A few years ago, she was actually engaged to my older brother.”“What?” Dexie was completely stunned, and she looked at Luke with astonishment on her face. What kind of situation was this? A few years ago, Luke’s fiancée had been engaged to Vincent?“Wait a minute, tell me more about this.”Dexie swallowed hard. This information was too shocking. She looked at Luke incredulously and asked, “You mean... she used to be your older brother’s fiancée?”Luke nodded and said, “Yes.”Goodness, can blue-blooded families get any more complicated? This was more suspenseful and scandalous than TV and movie plots!Dexie couldn’t help but ask again, “But wasn’t there a rumor that your older brother liked Danny’s mom?”This time, she didn’t mention it out of jealousy or gossip, but simply because she was too surprised. This matter was so complicated.Luke nodded a

    “Besides, I think the Huxley family is not an attainable target,” Dexie said. “If she were so shamelessly unscrupulous, I probably wouldn’t be alive right now.”Dexie’s words immediately made Luke feel better. He nodded and said, “Yes, she doesn’t have the guts, and her family won’t allow her to go against the Huxley family. Offending the Huxley family would also be detrimental to them. We don’t know what will happen after she becomes the family head, so I need to be stronger to protect you.”Luke touched Dexie, who lowered her head to avoid making eye contact. She was afraid of crying, and Luke would laugh at her.With a serious expression on her face, Dexie said, “Luke, I will also become more powerful; so powerful that others cannot hurt me.”“Originally, I thought it wasn’t the right time, and we shouldn’t announce the news of our marriage to prevent her or the Huxley family from hurting you, but you lost your temper and left home last time, and then there was that Twitter post in

    After answering Eric’s call, Dexie said with a smile, “Eric, we’ll be back soon.”On the other end of the phone, Eric’s voice was anxious as he said, “Dexie, go to the hospital, Dad is sick.”Dexie’s expression changed, and she asked, “What’s wrong with Dad?”Eric’s tone was very concerned as he said, “He suddenly felt unwell. Let’s meet at the hospital.” Saying nothing more, he hung up the phone.Dexie nodded hurriedly and said, “I see. Eric, I’ll go quickly.”Seeing Dexie so worried, Luke couldn’t help but ask, “What’s going on?”Dexie was anxious as she said, “My dad has gone to the hospital. I’m going. Luke, take care of Danny.” She thought, he was fine here yesterday, but how come suddenly.Luke said, “I’ll go with yo

    Luke was surprised, but he smiled and held her hand with a longing expression.“It’s just a business trip, so how can I be in danger?”Dexie sighed in relief and said, “That’s fine; you should be careful. Why didn’t you bring Gavin? He’s used to being by your side. If I’m careful, nothing will happen to me.” Aside from that, there are so many guards in the house.Luke shook his head and said, “Don’t worry, I have my own precautions in place so that no one can harm me. But you...”He sighed and said, “Don’t worry, just accept this arrangement, or else I won’t feel comfortable if you’re at home.”Dexie nodded helplessly and said, “Okay.”Luke looked at her with affectionate eyes. Luke’s kind behavior towards Dexie made her feel a little shy. Once they announced their relations

    “Yes, what’s wrong?” Dexie said.Tara didn’t understand, so she laughed and casually said, “Your blood type differs from ours. No wonder you’re much prettier than Eric.”“Eh?” Tara’s blunt comment stunned Dexie. She only came back to reality a while later.“What is your blood type and Dad’s?” She had a terrible feeling in her heart. Thinking about Eric’s expression at that moment, she still felt that something was wrong.“I am type O, your father is type B, and your brother is the same as me.” Tara didn’t realize how shocking her words were to Dexie. She didn’t understand and thought that everyone’s blood type was different. With that said, she turned around and went to the bathroom.But Dexie, extremely surprised, remained motionless.What is happening? Tara didn’t understa

    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
