As soon as Haily got off the plane, she called Justin. Justin drove to pick her up and missed Anne. "You're too late!" Haily laughed and made fun of him. "You don't value me that much when we are ordinary friends! It seems that I shouldn't give up. I must not let you go this time!" Justin shook his head and chuckled, with a cigarette between his lips. "I didn't mean it. I was stuck in traffic jam. Get in the car!" Justin drove back to his house. Haily came to the capital for business this time, but her child was still young, so she had to take him with her. It was inconvenient to live in a hotel. Justin even hired a temporary nanny for her. "Thank you!" After settling down, Haily patted Justin on the shoulder, and the two of them sat side by side and talked. Haily drank tea, and Justin drank beer. "We haven't seen each other for a long time. Why are you making yourself so miserable?" Haily narrowed her eyes and sized Justin up. Justin twitched
Daisy did not take Anne to a shopping mall but to a high-end private club. "What are you doing here? Didn't you say that we were going shopping? Don't you want to go shopping?" Anne was very confused and thought Daisy was weird. "Hush!" "Don't be so loud. We can't let others know we're here!" said Daisy as she stamped her feet and pulled Anne inside. Anne was amused. "Who's it?" Before Daisy answered, an attendant walked toward them and greeted them warmly. "Miss Hale, Miss Handerson, welcome. Why didn't anyone serve you? By the way, President Handerson just went in. Do we need to go and inform him?" The attendant was referring to Sean, but not Callan. After hearing the attendant's words, Anne understood what was going on. She couldn't help laughing as she looked at Daisy and said jokingly, "Oh, you're not here to go shopping but to keep an eye on someone?" "Humph!" Daisy glanced at the attendant and snorted. "Don't tell him! If he knows
Sean stood at the side of the pool. He lowered his eyes slightly and asked the person beside him, "What's going on?" "Oh, a girl fell into the swimming pool. It's okay... She came to the pool party, so of course, she can swim." Sean looked up at the swimming pool and saw Daisy quarreling with a man. "What's wrong with you? I don't want to talk to you!" "Hey! Don't you want to know my name? Don't you want to ban my family business?" "Go away..." In the pool, they inevitably touched each other. Seeing all this, Sean was incensed, and his anger quickly spread, as if the water in the pool were alcohol! Before everyone could react, Sean jumped into the swimming pool and swam toward Daisy. As Daisy swam to the edge of the pond, someone suddenly grabbed her waist from under the water. She was so scared that she immediately struggled. "Ah..." Her hands instinctively reached under the water and felt a man's arms... Suddenly, the alarm went o
Justin waited outside until it was late at night, but Anne did not come out to see him. He couldn't get through to her mobile phone and could only hear the busy tone. What was Justin doing? He knew it was because Anne adjusted her phone settings. Why did she do that? Of course, it was because she didn't want to answer his calls, which meant that she didn't want to see him. If it was not convenient to answer the phone, there was no need to do this. As Justin realized this, his expectation and excitement quickly cooled down, as if a basin of cold water had been poured on his head. What should he do? Anne must be very disappointed with him! D*mn it! Meanwhile, in the Lance Family, everyone was asleep. "Ah..." Suddenly, a scream came from Shawn's room. Then Shawn rushed out of his room in his pajamas and ran along the corridor in a panic. All the people in the Lance Family were woken up, and the lights were turned on in an instant. "Anne, Ann
Everyone left, leaving only Justin and Tracy behind. "Mom, I..." Justin frowned and said with difficulty, "I'm going to see Anne!" "Justin!" Tracy grabbed her son and looked at him while shaking her head. "Why are you still going to see her? Don't go... I don't want to see you become like your father!" Justin paused and sighed. "Mom, I won't be like him! I have to ask Anne and find out for myself. Only after I have the answer can I know what to do in the future... Mom, I promise you that I won't go on like this forever." After that, he turned and rushed out. "Justin!" Tracy took two steps forward but she couldn't stop him. Justin came chased after Anne and followed her. However, Shawn had been following her too, so he couldn't find a chance to get close to her. "Hey! What are you sneaking around for?" Behind him, someone patted him on the shoulder. When Justin looked back and saw that it was Daisy, he saw hope and reached out to grab onto
When the news that Justin was about to leave the capital reached the President's Mansion, Tracy Luther grew anxious. "Justin, what are you trying to do? Do you really want to go with that person?" Tracy came to Justin's house. He was already packing his luggage. Justin nodded. "Yes, I've thought about it carefully. Even if I were to stay in the Presidential Palace, at most, I could only take up your current position. But then what? I'll still live under someone's control, and doing other people's bidding for the rest of my life." "Son!" Tracy grabbed Justin with an anxious look. "How can you think like that? That man has never raised you, not even a day. When you were born, he didn't even look at you. He doesn't consider you as his son..." "Mom!" Justin interrupted his mother and said with a frown, "I don't care if he accepts me or not! I only know that I need this identity... No matter how outstanding I am, no matter how hard I work, I alone will not be
After waiting for the Leung Family for an entire day, Shawn still didn't get a reply. He had to drag his tired body back to the manor. It was getting late, and his family had all gone to bed. Anne had been waiting for him with the light on. "Shawn, you're back?" Shawn nodded wearily. "Yeah... why aren't you asleep?" She smiled and said in a low voice, "You haven't come back yet. How can I sleep? You haven't eaten yet, have you? Food is still on the stove... I'll bring it out for you..." Then she turned around and went to the kitchen. However, she was hugged by Shawn. "Anne." "Hey." She leaned on his shoulder and stroked his back gently. "I don't understand business matters, but don't put so much pressure on yourself... Everything will be fine as long as you try your best, and you're not in good health." "Hmm," Shawn replied in a soft voice. Fortunately, Anne was by his side. In the next few days, Shawn kept going to the Leung Family compa
Shawn explained, "We can get registered and hold a small ceremony first... When we return to the Capital, I'll give you a formal and grand wedding. What do you think?" "I..." She just felt that it was very abrupt. Why would Shawn be in such a hurry to make such a request? Mr. and Mrs. Lance also felt very anxious. They tried persuading their son, saying, "Shawn, this kind of thing is very important for girls. Why are you in such a rush? Anne is right here, it's not like she's going to run away..." "Mom!" Mrs. Lance was supposed to be joking with those words, but it touched Shawn's nerve! There really was someone who wants to snatch Anne away from him. If he doesn't act soon, it would be hard to say whether Anne would still be here in the future. Shawn's scream shocked everyone. "What are you doing, Shawn?" Shawn felt stifled. He was obviously under immense pressure, but he couldn't say anything. He wasn't going to explain to his parents, so he
