The door was pushed open, and Zac walked out from inside. Haley hurried forward, her tone urgent as she asked, "Zac, how is Mr. Ford? Is the antidote working?""Yeah, it'll need a few more hours of soaking, but once the effects wear off, he'll be fine. You can go in and take care of him now."Haley nodded, her tightly furrowed brows finally relaxing. Something came to her mind, but she hesitated to speak.Noticing her change in expression, Zac asked calmly, "Do you have any other questions?"In facing Haley, he seemed to exhibit more patience than he did with others. Observing this, Henry felt greatly surprised. He had known Zac for many years and considered himself to understand him well. Zac was someone who lived entirely in his own world, hardly caring about others' feelings. In his world, there was little distinction between men and women, let alone any special treatment for anyone. However, he attributed this change in behavior to Haley being someone close to Shane, so

His once vacant and distracted pupils gradually focused, landing on Haley's face filled with worry. Shane's gaze paused for a moment, quickly softening the coldness in his eyes. He gently took Haley's delicate and soft hand, shaking his head lightly. "I'm fine. Didn't I tell you not to come over? Why did you still follow?" With red eyes, Haley asked him, "If I hadn't come, were you planning to keep hiding it from me, pretending like nothing happened?" Shane sighed helplessly, admitting that was indeed his initial thought. He could not bear to see Haley worried, let alone in tears. Haley snorted softly. She had expected as much. Even though they had not been married long, whenever Shane was around, he always showed his best side and never allowed her to glimpse his vulnerability. This led to her understanding of Shane only scratching the surface. She did not like it because it always felt like there was a barrier between them. Holding Shane's hand, she gently pressed it agai

Shane spent a good four hours in the bath, waiting for the effects of the medicine to completely dissipate. By the time he got out, it was well past two in the morning. He reached for a towel and bathrobe that Zac had prepared. He wrapped himself up and headed to the door. As soon as he opened it, he spotted a petite figure crouching at the doorway. It was Haley. She sat huddled on the ground, arms wrapped around her knees, looking pitifully exhausted. She could barely keep her eyes open, her head bobbing like a chick pecking at seeds, as if she might collapse at any moment. Shane's heart softened, and he slowly crouched down beside her. Perhaps his gaze was too intense, for Haley slowly blinked open her eyes. They were misty, hazy, and still half-asleep. Shane asked her, "What are you doing here? Why didn’t you sleep in your room?" Haley rubbed her eyes and looked up at him. "Mr. Ford, you're finally out? Are you feeling okay? Is there anywhere that still hurts?" Silly g

Upon seeing Haley's serious and determined expression, Shane felt as though something had suddenly collided with his heart. It felt tingling, yet tender. Leaning in close to Haley's ear, he whispered softly, "Okay, I promise you." After finishing breakfast, Shane took Haley back to the Ford residence. The matter of Stella drugging him at the charity gala would not be overlooked so easily. Upon arriving at the Ford residence, the most flustered person was Evelyn.Late last night, Stella called her in a panic, "Evelyn, please help me, I think I've caused trouble." After hearing the whole story, Evelyn was wide awake, her heart pounding with fear. "What? You actually drugged Shane? Are you out of your mind?" Evelyn could hardly believe it. Her niece, who had always been obedient and sensible, had done such a thing. Over the years, she had raised Stella according to the standards of a wealthy and prominent family, hoping she would leave a good impression in high society and ma

Facing Shane's cold and dark gaze, Stella could not help but shiver inwardly. However, she maintained the same smile on her lips and teased, "Oh my, what are you saying? We're all family here, why talk about settling scores?" Seeing the fake smile on her face, Haley could not hold back anymore and said, "Evelyn, do you know about Stella drugging my husband?" Evelyn's expression froze for a moment, and she feigned surprise, covering her mouth, "What? Drugging? How could Stella do such a thing? It must be a misunderstanding, right?"Seeing her poor and exaggerated acting, Haley smiled, "Why don't we just call the police and let them investigate?" Evelyn was so angry that she stood up from the sofa, "Haley, are you trying to force me to death? Stella was just momentarily confused..."Mid-sentence, she suddenly realized that she had slipped up.She glared at Haley in frustration, "You're deliberately tricking me!"Haley looked at her with cold eyes, "Shane almost had a relapse la

Challenging his boundaries time and time again, Stella had reached his limit. He simply wanted to resolve this issue quickly to prevent any further complications that could potentially affect his relationship with Haley. In Shane's eyes, anything that stood in the way of him and Haley being together was an obstacle that needed to be eliminated. Ignoring Evelyn's pleading, Shane picked up his phone to call the police.Evelyn, seeing his resolute attitude, summoned some unknown strength and rushed over to snatch the phone. "No, you can't call the police. If Stella goes to jail, her life will be ruined. I can’t let you do this!"Unable to grab the phone, she plopped herself down on the ground, breaking into tears. There was no trace of the high-class lady of a wealthy family on her. Instead, she seemed like a bawling, unruly woman.Everyone was at a loss for words.In the end, it was Haley who stepped forward. "She doesn’t have to go to jail."Upon hearing this, Evelyn immediately

"Since his mother married into the Ford family, the latter half of her life was filled with bitterness. Mr. Ford Sr. was handsome and came from a good family, but the one thing he lacked was faithfulness. His mother was drawn to him by his talent and looks, ignoring everything else to marry him. In the beginning, Mr. Ford Sr. treated her well, even promising a lifetime of love. But as soon as she gave birth to their first son, Steven, Mr. Ford Sr. began to change. He entertained woman after woman, even having many illegitimate children, allowing them to mistreat his mother. She wanted a divorce, but Mr. Ford Sr. refused. They started sleeping in separate rooms because she could not bear the thought of him touching her after being with other women. Mr. Ford Sr., being the proud man he was, could not bear being treated coldly. So, he took advantage of her while he was drunk. Later, Mrs. Ford Sr. got pregnant. She was nearly fifty at the time, and almost everyone thought she wou

Shane turned to look at her, his lips curling slightly. "I'm different from them. Once I've made up my mind, I'll only be faithful to one person." Haley looked at him skeptically. "Really?" "Don't believe me?" Shane smiled back. Haley propped her chin up and gazed at him. "Actions speak louder than words." Promises were the cheapest things in the world, and she did not believe in them. Shane nodded knowingly. "Alright, I'll remember that." He would prove with his actions that he was more suitable for Haley than anyone else. Suddenly, Haley remembered something and asked him, "You still haven't answered my earlier question. Are you the youngest in the Ford family?" "Not exactly. There are others younger than me, but I gave them a large sum of money to ensure they never show up in front of me or my mother again." Anyone with a bit of sense should know that offending him would not lead to a good outcome. So almost everyone took the money. Haley nodded, comforting him, "Sin

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
