Mr. Webb, Make Your Move! Chapter 560
Shawn finished wiping the bedside table, turned on a lamp that glowed softly, and picked up a storybook. He flipped it open and started reading out loud.The doctor had said that talking to Zara could help her wake up. Shawn had talked about everything he could think of already, so he started reading her stories.Nord, who worked for Shawn, brought in dinner and looked at Zara lying there. He asked carefully, "Mr. Stewart, do you think she'll ever wake up?"Shawn stopped for a second, then said quietly, "Yes, she will."It had been two weeks. Nord bit his lip. "I remember when she caught me taking her photos in Aquaville. She was doing so well."Shawn got lost in thought for a moment, then looked down and turned another page. "She'll get better. You'll see."Nord felt really bad. "When she wakes up, I'll tell her I'm sorry. I let her down. I couldn't save Mrs. Lowry."Shawn just gestured for him to go, and Nord left. Shawn gently pushed Zara's hair back and touched her face."P

Sadie nodded. "So that's why Stefan has been hanging out with Yosef's cousin a lot lately. Looks like their families are thinking about tying the knot."Shawn glanced at his tablet, and Yosef's face popped up on the screen, looking a bit frosty.A reporter asked Yosef, "Mr. Webb, could you tell us what are your hopes for Four Prosperity Group?"Yosef's voice was deep and clear, without a hint of feeling. It was as if he was always keeping his distance. "Hopes?"At just that word, Zara's eyelashes fluttered. She started breathing fast.Shawn saw it that time and quickly set the tablet aside to take her hand. "Zara?" he whispered.Was she coming around?Yosef's voice kept going, reaching Zara's ears with every word."I've put money and hard work into it, so of course, I want it to do well, to grow, to hit the stock market big time, to make it to the world's top companies, and for it to be a giant in the economy."The reporters chuckled. "Mr. Webb, you seem to be in a great mood

Amanda?When Zara first heard someone call her by that name, she froze and glanced at Shawn for help. Shawn turned to the old butler and asked, "Did my mom set this up?"The butler beamed. "Yes, sir. The lady sent me to bring you and Ms. Lowry back to Rofey Manor. There's even a big welcome party waiting for you, all arranged by her. If Mrs. Comter hadn't popped in unexpectedly, she would've come herself."Behind them, Nord and Sadie shared a look. They were relieved the lady had not shown up. If she had, things would have been even more over-the-top. Their lady sure knew how to make an entrance."We're heading to Ravenswood Manor," Shawn said calmly. "Let my mom know that Zara's still not feeling great. Tell her not to go all out with the welcome. It might be too much for her."The butler quickly checked on Zara, who did look a bit pale.He frowned with worry. "Alright, we'll go to Ravenswood Manor since it's closer. You can rest up sooner, Ms. Amanda. I'll be praying for your

The moment Shawn gently placed Zara on the bed, her eyes fluttered open. She looked up at him with a sleepy gaze and murmured, "Shawn, you've come back."Shawn gazed down at her with concern. "Doesn't your head hurt from sleeping so much every day?""I'm just really tired," she mumbled, curling up under the covers like a sleepy kitten seeking warmth.Without thinking, Shawn softly stroked her cheek. Sadie, who had been standing quietly behind him, saw that intimate moment and slipped out of the bedroom. She paused outside the door with a look of uncertainty.The room was dimly lit, with soft light from the yard's streetlamps spilling through the window and the hallway's wall lights casting a cozy glow.Shawn said in a gentle whisper, "Let's go out for dinner. You've been in Marsberg for quite a while and haven't really explored."Zara did not seem too excited. She rested her head on the edge of the blanket, her voice weary. "I saw enough that day we went from the port to the mano

Zara did not know what to say, and she could not even figure out how she felt.Shawn did not push for her feelings but said, "Zara, dance for me again. The last one you did before I left."Zara bit her lip and looked away. However, the mirrors showed her face from every angle, and Shawn could see she did not want to dance.It was not about him. She just did not want to dance."I've forgotten it all. It's been so long," she said."You think I don't know how good your memory is?""I'm still hurt.""That injury healed back on the cruise. The doctors said so.""I'm not dressed for dancing today. Maybe another time.""You could dance in a school uniform. Why not now?"Shawn kept asking even when she said no over and over.However, right then, Zara just did not feel like moving. Shawn let his arms fall, his eyes shifting from warm brown to the deep color of amber. "You're not still upset about me leaving you back then, are you?"Zara shook her head. "I'm not."Shawn said, "How a

Zara's dreams were not a place to hide from her troubles. She never knew when the scary wilderness scene would replay in her sleep. The arrow wound from Yosef had healed on the outside, leaving a small scar.However, it still hurt with every heartbeat, reminding her of that awful day. Zara took a deep breath, and tears filled her eyes. "I don't know how to deal with this, Shawn. I don't know how to face Sharon's death, the pain of the arrow, losing my family, or Yosef trying to end my life. It's all too much, and I can't find any answers." Why did those things keep happening to her? Sitting on the chilly, hard wooden floor, Zara shivered as the mirrors around her showed her trembling form. Her voice quivered as she said, "I think I should've died that day." Zara used to be so strong, never letting Yosef's harsh treatment beat her down. Now, however, she was talking about death as if she had no life left in her. She was just like an old, faded photo. Shawn knew her pain was dee

From that day on, Zara really started to heal.Her routine became regular, her eating habits healthy. She worked with the doctors, took her medicine, and started asking the questions she had been too scared to voice before.She asked Shawn for Nord. She needed to know what really happened on the day everything changed for Sharon.In the cozy living room, a maid set down two cups of coffee. Zara and Shawn were sitting side by side on a big couch while Nord stood in front of them, looking worried. He glanced at Shawn, and after receiving a nod, he turned to Zara. His face showed how sorry he was. "I'm so sorry. I couldn't save Mrs. Lowry like I was supposed to!"Zara's voice was serious. "Tell me what happened."Nord nodded. "Yosef was watching Mrs. Lowry really closely. They found us before we could even get out of the hospital."They had to be sneaky, so they only had four people to try and save her.When the bad guys showed up, Nord had to think fast. He told one of his team

Zara tried to keep her tears at bay, but they spilled out nonetheless.She knew every word of what Sharon wanted to say to her.Mothers always know their daughters the best. Sharon was sure of that. She knew if anything happened to her, Zara would think it was all her fault for trusting Yosef, the man who brought danger to their doorstep and caused harm to Sharon and Trevor. With her final words, she made sure Zara knew she did not blame her at all.Shawn offered Zara a tissue, but she just shook her head and wiped her tears away with her hand. That was the one time she would cry, the very last time. The next tears she shed would be on the day she got her revenge."Did my mom say anything else?" Zara's voice was rough with emotion.Nord nodded. "She reminded you not to forget what you promised her, that you have to find Holly."Holly, also known as Holly Lowry, was the Lowry family's third daughter.Shawn lifted his cup, the steam fogging up his face. "I've sent people to sear

Harper's kisses were always teasing, intentionally awakening her senses.Their tongues tangled, taking her breath away. When she felt like she could not breathe and instinctively grabbed at his shirt, Harper let go and kissed his way down to her chin, neck, and chest.She could not resist him.Shelby was torn. She did not have to hold back her body's needs and reactions, especially since they could not end their marriage just yet. He was her husband, after all, so why should she deny herself? She decided to make the most of it.Men could easily separate love from physical desire, and women could too. Shelby did not think that accepting Harper's touches meant she liked him. It was just about meeting a need.She would just get that over with.Shelby's fingers gripped the sheets tightly as Harper kissed her growing belly. She was six months along, and her belly was a little bigger. The thought of their child made his heart melt, and he kissed her several more times before suddenly s

Shelby made a sound of agreement, her back sore from sitting too long. She leaned back against Harper without much thought. She was busy with her work and not in the mood for conversation.Harper quickly got the gist of the case file. In short, it was a classic example of someone facing the consequences of their own actions.In the western part of Starville, there was a middle school and a vocational school. The two schools were just a street apart. Not all, but at least 80% of the vocational school students were troublemakers.One of those students, Yered, often rounded up his gang to shake down the middle school kids for their money.Since last year, the bullies had been targeting Steven Scott, a middle schooler. They would often demand money from him. Steven was shy and scared, so he never stood up to them and just handed over the cash.However, this time, as he was walking with a girl from his class, the bullies blocked their path again. They started to pick on the girl becaus

Samantha was really happy. She lifted her finger elegantly and said softly, "One step at a time. First, we'll make sure the child is gone. Then, we'll push them to divorce, and in the end, when she's weak from losing the baby, we'll take care of her." If Shelby died as Harper's wife, then Harper would get everything, and that would be bad. The two women agreed. While reclining on their bamboo chairs, they started dreaming about their perfect future—one with the Young family and the other with all the money. Since the foot masseuse could not hear or speak, they talked freely, not worried about anyone overhearing them. After the massage, they even went to eat together. The masseuse quietly cleaned up and tidied the room. Then, she headed straight for the lookout point. The resort was in the mountains, with lots of trees and streams. The lookout was up high, with a great view of all the little mountains. It was a beautiful spot that every guest at the hotel made sure to visit.

Adalee was doubtful. "Is it really that serious? Our husband doesn't like that dowdy wife or the eldest son. Even if he's started to favor Harper more because of his marriage to the Lambert family, that still won't affect our children.""Our husband used to leave the company matters to our sons, but now he's handing them over to Harper. Who knows what the future holds?" Samantha said with a hint of malice. "We can't take that risk. We can't let Harper get too much leverage. We can't let him and his child have too great a chance to win."Adalee could see Samantha was desperate and asked anxiously, "What are you thinking of doing? She's a lawyer. She knows the law, and she's the sole heir to the Lambert family."Samantha's eyes suddenly became slits. "That's right, she's the only one who will inherit the Lambert family's fortune. With that kind of money, there are loads of people who want to trick her or get their hands on it. "She's a lawyer, not a superhero. Just wait. I'll make

It was Shelby's first visit to the Youngs' place, and by chance, she walked in on his father's so-called second and third wives being snide to Harper. His dad had not lifted a finger to help. It seemed like this was not a one-off occurrence.Was that the way they always treated him?Harper, taken aback by her blunt question, nearly slammed on the brakes. What?"Me, being pushed around in the family? That's just because I can't be bothered..." Who would waste their time arguing with a bunch of women or stoop so low as to fight with their dad's other women? That would be so embarrassing, right?However, he stopped himself mid-sentence.Because he suddenly realized that by saying that, he was making it sound like he felt bad for being 'picked on' at home.Harper slowed the car down and glanced at Shelby. Her eyebrows were knitted together, and she looked really serious. She was definitely not happy.He almost smiled, but he pushed it back down. He swallowed hard and changed his voi

She faced Samantha, not bothering to argue about inheritance rights. "You still haven't answered my earlier question. What does 'stepmother' mean?"Caught off guard by the sudden shift back to the topic, Samantha was momentarily speechless.Shelby did not wait for her to catch up. She pulled out her phone and quickly tapped the screen."Ah, I see," Shelby remarked, glancing at her phone. "According to this, 'stepmother' used to refer to a concubine in ancient times. That's similar to a servant, isn't it? So, in modern terms, it's like a maid. "Got it now. Would you mind getting me some salad? Thanks."The nerve of her, treating Samantha like a common maid! She had never been so insulted. "You!"Shelby set her phone down and met her gaze. "Since you're so curious, I'll fill you in. In the Lambert family, my word is law. If you're ever curious about me again, just ask me directly. No need to rely on rumors."Samantha bit her lip and looked to Gilbert for support, but he just sat

It was Shelby.Pregnant and in flats, she stood firm with not a hint of weakness about her.Her steady gaze fell on the two women who fancied themselves important, leaving them at a loss for words.Harper paused for just a moment, then quickly got to his feet and hurried over. "Dear!"The Young family's house was bright and airy. Harper's eyes sparkled with the unexpected joy of seeing Shelby, who had said she would not come. His face lit up with a smile.Shelby watched him, amused. She thought he was like their excited Shiba Inu, dashing over at the sight of its owner.Harper reached her side, calling out again, "Dear."Shelby gave a small nod. "Yeah."The guests at the dining table snapped out of their surprise, and Wrenley beamed. "Shelby, you're here."Shelby greeted her parents-in-law, "Mom, Dad."Wrenley hurried over to help her, her actions showing just how much she cherished her daughter-in-law.That was Shelby's first visit to the Young family since her wedding. She

Harper waited until Wrenley had said enough, andthen he spoke up."I just don't get you. Your family's loaded, my grandparents are laidback, and Dad doesn't even like you. Why stick to him? Just divorce him, take half his stuff, go home, and hang out with some young models. "That'd be way better than sticking to a lost cause. You've got no ambition."If it were Shelby, she would have left by then if he had not trapped her by getting her pregnant and holding something over her head. Why couldn't his mom be more like his wife?"In your dreams!"Wrenley, with tears in her eyes, scoffed. "The Young family wasn't always so fancy. I married him, and he promised me the moon. 'A good wife helps me reach my dreams, and I'll pay her back in gold.' And then what? "Once the Young family made it big, he just kept bringing in more women and their kids. How can I accept that? I'll fight him to the end, even if it kills me!"Harper sighed. "You want to fight him, I don't. Shelby and her baby

"An old friend?" Zara questioned. "If an old friend wanted to see me, they should be visiting the cemetery, not here."Only a very few people knew she was still alive.Shawn asked, "Is it a man or a woman?""A young man. He also said something else...""What did he say?"The butler hesitated, then relayed, "He said... The miss tricked him, and now she owes him for it."Zara was speechless.The garden fell silent for a moment, with only the whisper of the summer wind rustling through the flowers.Seconds later, Shawn set aside his tablet and smiled slightly. "Really? That sounds fun. Get him to come in. I'd like to meet him too."Zara had thought it was just a joke, but when the butler led the visitor in, she stood up in astonishment.It was him!...In Parnova, the sun shone brightly.However, in Starville, the weather was turning.The sky had been clear when Harper left home in the morning. However, when he reached the Youngs' place at noon, he saw the sun hidden behind
