He let out a slow breath, pulling her delicate waist into his embrace, pressing her against his chest, and resting his forehead against hers, gazing into her almond eyes with a serious intensity.Haley was startled by his sudden movement. Before she could react, Shane slowly spoke, "Yes, it's you—my Haley." For ten years, his heart had beat only for Haley. Whether in the past, present, or future, she was the only one for him, unique and irreplaceable.Haley's lips parted slightly, a hint of surprise flickering in her eyes. Her cheeks flushed, and she was about to ask something when her lips were once again sealed.All her words were blocked by Shane's lips, leaving only intermittent murmurs escaping between their lips.Haley had just managed to catch her breath when she was kissed again, almost suffocating this time. She frowned, pushing weakly against Shane's chest. Her strength was small, and now she could hardly exert any force, her body feeling incredibly soft.Shane release

After completely suppressing that urge, Shane finally straightened up. He looked at Haley, and there was a faint gleam in his dark, profound eyes. "Haley, did you agree to my proposal?"Seeing their hands intertwined, Haley's lips curved slightly, but she pretended to be puzzled. "What proposal? What did I agree to?"Shane was momentarily flustered, but he quickly caught on. His clever little wife was playing him now. He leaned in, trapping Haley in his embrace, and said slowly, word by word, "Of course, it's about fulfilling marital duties. Shall we start tonight?"Haley was stunned, her pupils dilated suddenly, filled with disbelief. "Mr. Ford, that's not what you said before. Didn't you say we should start with dating?"As she said this, she realized something was off. When she looked up, she met Shane's eyes, which were full of amusement.Shane humorously asked, "I thought you didn’t remember?"Haley blushed, softly defending herself, "I really didn't remember just now, but

"You can't fool me, and I'm not buying into your act!"Shane glanced at his now empty arms with a hint of resignation. "Okay, no more teasing. What do you feel like eating tonight? Let's go out and celebrate."Haley blinked, puzzled. "Celebrate what?"Shane took her hand, planted a kiss on her forehead, and grinned. "Celebrate... a major milestone in our marriage."Understanding his implication, Haley's eyes softened, and a smile danced in her watery almond eyes.**After Shane and Haley left, Xena and James's expressions turned grim.James could not believe it. How could someone as prominent as his uncle, a man of such stature, attend an event at the school just for Haley?As the CEO of the Ford Corporation, Shane's schedule was usually packed to the brim. This event was obviously arranged hastily, and the primary reason was that Haley wanted to show off her relationship at school, letting everyone know she had married his uncle.How had he not realized before that Haley was

At the Ford residence, Mrs. Ford Sr. was leisurely sipping her afternoon tea when the butler knocked and entered."James has returned, Madam."Mrs. Ford Sr. casually responded with a "Hmm" and, seeing the butler lingering, lazily raised an eyelid. "Is there something else?"The butler hesitated, then said, "James has brought Miss Xena."Mrs. Ford Sr. looked surprised and sneered, "I thought he would heed my warning, but it seems he's gone ahead and brought her home anyway."Unable to fathom Mrs. Ford Sr.'s thoughts, the butler asked, "Shall I arrange for them to meet you?""No need. Just send them away, and remind James not to forget what I've said."The butler respectfully nodded and left the room.Downstairs, James ushered Xena to sit on the sofa in the living room, anxiously awaiting Mrs. Ford Sr.'s appearance. Though he had assured Xena of his sincerity, he had no confidence in his heart.Not long ago, Mrs. Ford Sr. had threatened him, saying if he insisted on marrying Xen

"You..."James furrowed his brows, about to interject, when a voice filled with authority echoed from upstairs."What's this? You are not even part of our Ford family, yet you're already meddling in our affairs?"Both James and Xena's hearts skipped a beat as they instinctively looked up to see Mrs. Ford Sr. slowly emerging from the upper floor.Xena's face turned pale in an instant as she hastily tried to explain, "Grandma, I was just speaking casually. I didn't mean anything else."Mrs. Ford Sr. let out a disdainful hum, her shrewd eyes seeming to have already pierced through everything.Xena met her gaze and could not help but feel a twinge of guilt.She feared that Mrs. Ford Sr. would have a negative impression of her because of what happened just now, so she quickly took out the gifts she had bought on the way."Grandma, these are nutritional supplements I specifically bought for you. You must take care of your health, otherwise both James and I will worry."Mrs. Ford Sr.

Upon hearing that James had brought Xena to the Ford family, Evelyn could not sit still. She hurried over, her anger boiling inside her, almost ready to burst out. Seeing Evelyn's furious appearance, Xena shrank back into James's embrace, frightened. James quickly hugged her, shielding her, and frowned at Evelyn. "Mom, it's me who brought Xena home. It's not her fault.""And now you're defending her? Who am I doing this for?" Evelyn could not believe it. Why would her son fall for Xena as if he were enchanted? A woman would understand another woman best, and Evelyn could tell at a glance that Xena was not as innocent and kind as she appeared. On the contrary, she was a cunning woman, even skilled at appearing weak in front of men to win their sympathy. This was the type of woman Evelyn had always looked down upon. But unfortunately, her beloved son had fallen for her. James remained silent, but he kept Xena protected in his embrace, making his stance clear. Unable to do anyt

James was frightened and quickly released Xena's hand, walking up to Evelyn."Mom, please don't get yourself worked up."Evelyn shook off James's hand, pouting stubbornly. "Don't touch me. Just go with that little vixen. You don't care if I live or die anyway."James sighed helplessly and apologized to Evelyn, "Mom, I'm sorry."Evelyn took the water brought by the helper and swallowed a blood pressure pill, calming down slightly. She said to James, "It's either her or me. You choose.""Mom, are you trying to put me in a tough spot?" James was caught in a dilemma, not knowing what to do. One was his own biological mother who loved and cared for him, and the other was a woman who had suffered a lot to be with him. Whichever he gave up, he would be devastated.He sought help from his grandmother, who had been silent all along. "Grandma, please talk to Mom."Mrs. Ford Sr. watched the scene coldly and said in a chilly tone, "I can't persuade her. This is your family's affair. You sho

The next day, Haley woke up to a powerful, impossible-to-ignore gaze. She opened her eyes, turned her head, and found Shane lying on the bed, propped up on his arm, staring at her without blinking.Seeing her awake, Shane's lips curved into a slight smile. "Good morning, girlfriend."His "girlfriend" directly reminded Haley of everything that happened yesterday. For some reason, her cheeks flushed red, and she pursed her rosy lips, glaring at him with a hint of annoyance."Don't call me that randomly! Who said I'm your girlfriend?"Shane grabbed her delicate, fair wrist and raised an eyebrow. "If not 'girlfriend,' then what? Wife?"As he spoke, he deliberately leaned closer, his tone casual but carrying a magnetic laziness. Plus, just waking up, his voice was slightly husky, making him even more enticing.Hearing his teasing words full of smiles, Haley's cheeks blushed uncontrollably once again. She quickly pulled the quilt over her face, covering it tightly, and muttered softly,

Since that day, the number of bodyguards at Violet Grove had multiplied several times, and Shane even had the latest security system installed at home. It was a top-of-the-line model with built-in defense mechanisms. If anyone unfamiliar tried to break in, the alarm would go off instantly. After hearing about how close Evangeline and Nicholas had come to being kidnapped, no one thought these precautions were excessive. In fact, they only wished more could be done."This is just despicable! I can’t believe Xena could be so vicious!""We were too soft on her before. Someone like that is just a waste of air."Shane and Haley remained silent, but their thoughts were the same.Shane reassured everyone, "It’s over. Xena will never have another chance to get out."Hearing this, everyone felt a bit more at ease."By the way, where are Mom and Dad? I don't see them," Haley asked, noticing that her parents were not around, though everyone else had gathered.Zac didn’t say anything but q

Just the thought of what could have happened made Haley’s heart ache unbearably.The nannies stammered for a long time but couldn’t describe the person who had approached them. All they could recall was that the person had been thoroughly covered and that it was a woman.Shane immediately called his assistant, instructing him to investigate as soon as possible.It was past 3 a.m., and Haley still sat at the edge of the bed, unable to close her eyes. Her eyes were red from exhaustion and worry.Shane wrapped his arms around her, whispering words of comfort, "Don’t be afraid, it’s all over now. Everything will be okay."Haley sniffled and nodded. "I know, but I’m still so scared. We were just in time. If we’d been any later…"Shane pressed a kiss to her forehead. "I won’t let anything like this happen again. Trust me."At that moment, Shane's assistant, Dean, walked in, dragging someone who was covered head to toe.The person stumbled, falling to their knees in front of Haley and

Late that night, Shane and Haley finally sent off the last guest. Haley leaned heavily against Shane, exhaustion written all over her face. "Ugh, no one told me getting married would be this tiring. I'm never doing this again."Shane chuckled. "Who else do you plan on marrying besides me?"Haley blinked innocently at him. "Who says you can't marry the same person twice? That's what they do in books and dramas."Shane sighed, wrapping his arm around her shoulders and gently tapping her on the forehead. "You need to cut back on those dramas."Haley giggled, rubbing her forehead. "Hey, they’re useful! I’ve learned a lot from them."Shane raised an eyebrow. "Oh? What did you learn?"A mysterious smile curved on Haley's lips. "Not telling you. You'll find out if you ever make me mad."Seeing that she wasn’t going to spill the secret, Shane let it go. He bent down and suddenly hoisted Haley over his shoulder.Caught off guard, Haley yelped in surprise. "Shane, what are you doing?"

Jenny and Charlotte stayed behind to keep Haley company. Jenny teased her with a grin, "Can you believe we’re all getting married now? Back in college, we used to imagine what our future partners would be like."Haley shot her a sideways glance and retorted, "Not ‘we,’ just you. Bet you never imagined you’d end up with someone who’s nothing like your ideal type, huh?"Back then, Haley was still engaged to James Ford. Though James was far from a good guy, Haley felt obligated to honor her mother’s dying wish and marry him. She didn’t spend much time fantasizing about love. Jenny, on the other hand, practically lived in her romantic daydreams."Oh, so you’re teasing me now?" Jenny’s face flushed for a moment, then she lunged at Haley, pretending to tickle her.Haley dodged, laughing, and soon the two were playfully tussling. Watching from the sidelines, Charlotte couldn’t help but smile along with them.Soon after, the wedding officially began. The venue was packed with guests,
Overflowing Affection From My Billionaire Uncle-in-Law Turned Husband Chapter 898
On the fifth of May, the wedding took place as planned.Shane had started preparing the venue two days in advance, meticulously arranging every detail himself. The expansive wedding grounds were filled with romance, from the long red carpet laid out on the lawn to the balloons adding a whimsical touch.Haley donned her wedding dress and let the stylists work their magic, crafting an exquisite look for her. Just then, Shane entered the room, standing behind her with a warm smile."You look absolutely stunning today, Haley. The most beautiful bride in the world," he said, admiration in his voice.Haley turned her head toward him, her face glowing with happiness. "Weren’t you busy greeting the guests? How did you find time to sneak in here?"Ignoring the people around them, Shane bent down and kissed her lightly on the lips. "I stole a little break to come see you," he whispered playfully.At that moment, a teasing voice interrupted them from behind. "You two really can’t stop showi

After what felt like an eternity, Haley was nearly out of breath when Shane finally let her go reluctantly. However, even though his lips had only pulled away slightly, his hands still firmly gripped her waist."Do you like it?" he asked, his deep eyes filled with affection.Haley blinked innocently. "Like what?""Me," Shane replied with a playful grin, his gaze never leaving her face. "Do you like me?"Her cheeks flushed, and her heart raced as she bit her lip and looked up at him. "Why don’t you guess?"Shane chuckled and pulled her onto his lap. "I’d guess... you do."Caught off guard, Haley let out a small yelp and instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck, shooting him a playful glare. "You already knew, so why ask?"Her response only made Shane laugh harder. After a bit more playful banter, he held her close as they leaned back on the couch. Then he brought up their wedding. "I talked with Mom and your parents. We all agreed that our wedding will be held in a month.

Haley had always known how much Shane doted on Evangeline, treating her like the apple of his eye. But she hadn’t expected his protectiveness to reach such an extreme level. She couldn’t help but feel both amused and exasperated at the same time.Gently, she grabbed Shane’s hand and comforted him softly, "Alright, alright, don’t be mad. Hugo is only a month old. He didn’t mean any harm. If anything, it just shows how lovable our Evangeline is."Shane sat on the edge of the bed, the tension in his chest easing slightly, but he still couldn’t shake off all his frustration. In his mind, he made a firm decision that he would do everything in his power to protect his little treasure from now on. No one would be allowed to get too close to her again.From that day on, everyone noticed how Shane’s protectiveness over Evangeline had reached a whole new level. He barely let her out of his sight, as if he needed to be by her side 24/7. Anyone who dared approach her was met with a cold, pier

Jenny couldn't help but laugh. "You haven't seen this little guy when he's awake. He's a real handful. If you did, you'd probably take back all those compliments."When Hugo was awake, he was full of energy, and when he cried, his voice could shake the walls. Jenny looked at Nicholas and Evangeline, who were awake but contentedly sucking on their tiny fists, and said, "These two are so much easier. They’re quiet and calm, the more I look at them, the more I like them."Seeing the twins were awake, Haley quickly leaned over, gently poking their soft, chubby cheeks. "Awake already? You only napped for a little while."Nicholas stared up at Haley with his big eyes, silently taking her in. Evangeline, on the other hand, waved her tiny hand and let out a soft "ah," which nearly melted Henry and Jenny's hearts.Henry knelt beside the crib, unable to tear his eyes away from Evangeline. He playfully reached out to her, and when she giggled at him without fear, he adored her even more. "S

Haley took a small sip, smiling as she saw the eager look in Shane's eyes. "Mmm, it’s good.""Really?" Shane smiled as well, taking another spoonful for himself. He tasted it thoughtfully before nodding. "Yeah, it’s good. The seasoning is just right, and it’s refreshing. Even with the herbs, it’s not bitter at all."He quickly brought another spoonful to Haley’s lips, feeding her until the bowl was nearly empty.Seeing Haley’s good appetite, Shane tidied up the dishes and called Dean. "Tell the restaurant that all the chefs’ salaries are doubled this month."Dean was momentarily stunned but quickly recovered. "Got it. I’ll take care of it right away."As he hung up the phone, Dean couldn’t help but think, "When will it be my turn for a bonus?"As if Shane could read his thoughts, a low voice came through the receiver. "Haley’s pregnancy has been tough, and you’ve worked hard these past few months too. Your year-end bonus will be tripled, and you’ll get extra vacation days. Spend
