Dexie detested the idea of eating her food next to the shameless man, fearing it would affect her appetite.
"Dexie, what are your plans from now on?" After a brief pause, Old Mrs. Dawson abruptly inquired.
Many people had asked her the same question, and Dexie had no intention of hiding it from the public.
"I just secured a teaching job. I'm going to work after the vacation."
"A teacher, huh? That's good. I'm sure the kids will love you," Old Mrs. Dawson nodded. However, she assumed Dexie was going to be a preschool teacher, which made sense since Dexie had recently graduated from high school.
Dexie was unaware that Old Mrs. Dawson had misunderstood her actual job, as it didn't seem odd for someone as old as her to refer to university students as children.
Luke Huxley was surprised that Dexie
“Mr. Dawson, do you need anything?""No, nothing," Dexie replied, feeling speechless."Then why would you call me at this hour? Don't you know I was about to get to the excellent part?" She scolded herself silently."Well, if you need anything, then I'll hang up now," Luke Huxley said.Dexie, surprised by his response, mentioned she was reading a novel.Luke Huxley was shocked to discover that she valued reading a novel over talking to him. He felt a pang of hurt at her apparent indifference."I have something to tell you. Can you give me some time?"Luke Huxley inquired, seeking a reason to carry on the conversation.Dexie couldn't understand why Luke Huxley, who had never wanted to talk to her during their marriage, was suddenly reaching out after their divorce.&nbs
“Yes, I did. I will note what you said. Mr. Dawson, if there is nothing else, I will hang up the phone." However, this time, before Luke Huxley could say anything, Dexie quickly hung up on him."The Hansley Corporation, huh?" she thought.Dexie had intended to let Rodel have the Hansley Corporation because he could always create another company. As for Rodel...She would claim everything she had gained by exploiting the Hansley family. She'd make it clear, with certainty, that she'd be nothing without the Hansley family.Didn't she want to pursue her true love?Didn't he feel humiliated for being a son-in-law?His actions were irreversible, so she had to accept them.Dexie put her phone aside. Her eyes were devoid of heat, and she had an impassive look on her face.Luke Huxley's expression instantly darkened when he heard the high-pitched ringing sound.The damn woman didn't take her words seriously. Could she discern that her father was an ungrateful and ruthless bastard?Since Dexie
Dexie gave Rodel a mock-painted look, as if it were the first time she had heard those scandalous words. However, Sarry did not want to give Dexie the opportunity to speak. Sarry immediately continued, “Isn’t it true? Your father is a man who kisses others. Isn’t that embarrassing enough for you?”At this moment, even Dexie wanted to give a thumbs up and congratulate Sarry on her satisfactory performance.“Shut your mouth!” Rodel roared fiercely. Sarry shuddered in shock and took two steps back, not daring to speak more. Rodel could no longer stand Sarry or her personal attacks. Why did she have to keep bringing up the topic he most wanted to avoid?“So... all this time, you’ve thought of your time as a son-in-law as an embarrassing past?” Dexie’s face hardened as she looked at Rodel mockingly. Rodel felt even guiltier once Dexie’s piercing gaze met his.“If you really considered it shameful, why did you marry my mother? Did Grandpa put a gun to your head and force you to do it? Or wer
Dexie didn't even take her father seriously, let alone the few others present."Dexie, you are too much!"Marcus couldn't help but point his finger at Dexie and roar.He absolutely hated this devil. He yearned for her immediate death, allowing him the chance to make a meaningful contribution by donating her heart to his sister.Dexie looked at him and noticed the malicious intent on his face. She then smiled and fixed her gaze on Marcus's finger pointing at her."Don't you want your finger anymore?" she asked.She spoke in a monotone voice, which seemed to intimidate Marcus. He retracted his hand immediately, trembling, his eyes still shining with anger.After that, Dexie crushed the finished snack pack into a ball and headed to the trash can before getting up from the couch. 
As soon as they heard what Dexie said, her eyebrows twitched. After speaking to the servants, they recalled the unreasonable act she had committed."Three."And as expected...Everyone present, who had fallen for her trick, grimaced as they saw Dexie pick up her phone to make a call."Hello, officer. I have some unwanted intruders on my private property who refuse to leave. Could you send some officers here? My address is..."After Dexie provided her address to the agent, she hung up the phone.The Domino family did not expect Dexie to actually call the police and completely lost their composure."Dexie, do you really have to go that far?"Rodel took a deep breath and calmed down. Then, he tried his best to speak to Dexie in a neutral tone.If anyone found out that his daughter had kicked him out of the house on a snowy day, his humiliating past as a son-in-law would become public knowledge!Looking at Rodel's expression, she said,
Dexie was certain that Rodel dared to use the Hansley family's money for his own business, and that she had other properties in her name.The holidays quickly ended, and it was time for everyone to return to work.Since the day they left, Dexie has not been paying attention to the situation.She applied for a position at Johnston University.At Johnston University's dean's office, after completing the incorporation paperwork, Dexie went to Mr. Henrick to say "hello."“Ms. Hansley, welcome to our university." Mr. Henrick welcomed us."I am honored to work with you, Mr. Henrick," replied Dexie.Mr. Henrick was a renowned academic with a national research grant, making him a well-known figure in the research community.When he saw Dexie in his office for the first time and learned that the famous and legendary Dr. Khlynt was the eld
Dexie, not Roxane, had written the article two years ago. She considered Roxane to be her dearest sister and couldn't bear to see her suffering from heart disease at such a young age.To find a cure for Roxane's heart disease, Dexie conducted extensive research on the condition. The article she published under her research laboratory's name discussed surgery as an alternative to heart transplants for treating congenital heart disease.She meticulously verified all the numbers and data in the document before publication, hoping that one day it would undergo clinical trials and ultimately lead to a cure for Roxane's heart disease.She published the article, "Application of Cardiac Bypass Surgery in Older Adults," under her own name. She wrote this article as part of her research on Roxane's illness.In today's medicine, cardiac surgery represents a very high risk for elderly patients, especially those over 80 years
The sight of Dexie in the hallway momentarily diverted the students from their argument about the beautiful teacher. Her beauty captivated them, especially the younger students who gathered in a corner to discuss her."She's so beautiful, even more than the famous movie stars.""Roxane doesn't stand a chance against her. I used to think Roxane was the prettiest and most humble, but now I see she's not as pretty.""You're right. She exceeds even the most beautiful girl in Johnston. She certainly surpasses Roxane.She is surprisingly attractive. If Roxane were a lily, this new girl is a peony—lusher, more vibrant, and definitely more beautiful! The magic mirror would show her instead of Snow White. She must be the most beautiful person I have ever seen in my life."Roxane was speechless.She had been staring at Dexie, dumbfounded, since the moment she entered the room, book in hand.
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
