With a light toss of her hair and eyes shimmering with charm, Xena cast a glance towards Shane.

Her most prized possession was her face. Though she might not be deemed top-tier beautiful, there was something undeniably captivating about her eyes. When she glanced at people, they shimmered with a misty allure, as if they carried deep affection within them. Any ordinary man standing here would be captivated by her.

However, Shane's response was completely unexpected. In the face of her deliberate probing, Shane not only showed no reaction but also frowned, disagreeing, "You're mistaken. Being able to marry Haley is my greatest blessing."

With that, he turned and walked towards the direction of the fitting room. "Haley, are you done trying on clothes?" His voice was deep, gentle, with a hint of indescribable sexiness.

"Just about!" came Haley's voice from inside, followed by the sound of the fitting room door being pushed open.

    Haley overheard those words just as she stepped out of the fitting room, her eyes widening in disbelief.How could Xena have the audacity to say such things? Back when she and James had not divorced yet, James used Shane's card to lavishly shower Xena with gifts. Not asking for that money back was already considered their greatest act of tolerance towards them.And now she had the nerve to come asking for more? Quickly striding over, she stood in front of Shane. "If she wants to borrow money, she should ask me. He listens to me."Seeing Haley emerge, Xena felt a sinking feeling, her face flushing with embarrassment. "Haley, I'm really at my wits' end. I'll pay you back as soon as I can."Haley sneered, "Then pay back what you owe before asking for more."Xena was left speechless, looking to Shane for help, hoping he would assist her since she was now part of the Ford family. However, her hopes were dashed. Not only did Shane show no intention of helping her, he even agreed w

    Haley tilted her head up, planting a gentle kiss on the corner of Shane's lips. "Is this enough?" Her eyes, almond-shaped and crystal-clear, were veiled with a delicate mist, capable of igniting desires deep within people's hearts.Shane's sexy Adam's apple bobbed as he smiled suddenly, his gaze dropping to her soft lips. He leaned down, pressing his lips against hers. To make her more comfortable, he held her slender waist, allowing her to sit atop him.With her arms around Shane's neck, bearing his kisses. His actions were not exactly gentle, but they sent shivers down her spine. By the end, she felt like she could hardly catch her breath.Shane released her lips, shifting positions to lie down beside her on the bed.Entwined in each other's arms, she could clearly feel his heartbeat and the restrained heaviness of his breath. Blushing from embarrassment, her cheeks were as red as blooming flowers, dazzling in their radiance.Finally managing to calm his desires, Shane sig

    Upon hearing the familiar voice, Haley abruptly lifted her head. The man standing before her was tall and well-built, with deep, chiseled features. His eyes carried a faint smile, giving off a warm and comfortable vibe.William Ford? How could it be him?Seeing Haley's silence, the smile in William's eyes deepened. "What? You don't recognize me?"In the small meeting room, everyone exchanged curious glances, wondering about the relationship between Haley and the handsome man before them.Finally regaining her composure, Haley furrowed her brows slightly and asked, "Mr. William, I remember you studied medicine. Why are you here applying for a designer position?"William remained composed, his slender fingers pointing to his resume. "Miss Haley, besides studying medicine in college, I also pursued fashion design. You can take a closer look at my resume."Feeling a bit embarrassed, Haley coughed lightly and quickly scanned through the document. Indeed, William had obtained a dual de

    After the last interviewee left, it was already dark outside. Haley rubbed her sore neck and glanced at her phone, noticing several missed calls from Shane. Even without seeing them, she could sense his anxiety. Feeling a bit guilty, she quickly dialed back.The call was promptly answered, and a deep, husky voice sounded on the other end, "Haley?"There was no complaint, no anger. Just a calm and gentle tone that felt familiar yet distant. Haley's heart swelled with a strange feeling as she replied softly, "Um, Mr. Ford, I'm sorry. I've been busy all day, and my phone was on silent.""It's okay. Are you done? I'm outside your company."Haley's heart skipped a beat, and she rushed out, phone in hand. "Mr. Ford, just wait for me. I'll be right there."Shane's voice was calm, almost soothing. "Don't rush. I'm not going anywhere."In the elevator, Haley pressed the button for the ground floor, her eyes fixed on the changing display numbers."Mr. Ford, have you been waiting for me lo

    Shane continued, "After my father passed away, my mother gave those mistresses and illegitimate children a sum of money, asking them never to appear in front of us again." Haley blinked in confusion, "Then why did William come back?" She had seen William's resume and knew he had gone abroad to study early on, only returning after graduation. Shane tightened his grip on the steering wheel and said, "Because William refused to accept that money. His mother wanted to take it, but he insisted that he carried the blood of the Ford family and vowed to return one day." Haley fell silent, unsure of what to say. She could sense Shane's melancholy mood at the moment. Opening up old wounds was never easy for anyone. After a moment's thought, she placed her hand over Shane's hand on the steering wheel and gently patted it, "It's all in the past. You and your mom will have a good life from now on." Shane clasped Haley's hand in return, giving her a smile. "I'm fine. Just reminiscing abo

    "Sis-in-law, do you have any bias against me?""What?" Upon hearing William's words, Haley did not react immediately. William still had a faint smile on his lips as he continued, "Nothing, I just feel like you've been deliberately keeping your distance from me."Haley furrowed her brows slightly and replied, "You've been calling me sis-in-law. You should know I'm married, so I should keep my distance from other men."William did not expect this response at all. He stared at Haley for a moment and then leaned down, bringing his lips close to her ear, his breath lightly brushing against her skin. "My brother is really lucky to marry such a smart, beautiful, and faithful wife like you. I'm a bit jealous," he whispered.Haley took a step back, looking at him warily, her brows furrowed. "What are you trying to do? Have you forgotten that you're Jenny's boyfriend?"William raised his hand, adjusted his collar, and chuckled. "Yes, but you probably don't know. Actually, you were the fir

    Haley shyly nodded, "Yes."Shane rubbed his ear, pretending not to hear clearly, "What? I didn't catch that, could you repeat it?"Knowing he was teasing her, Haley glared at him irritably, "Never mind, I said I'm going to sleep now. Do you have anything else to say?"Seeing the slightly ruffled look on her face through the camera, Shane's smile deepened. He decided to stop teasing her and coaxed in a soft voice, "My bad, wifey. Rest well. You don't need to hang up. I just want to watch over you like this."Haley settled back onto the sofa and pulled the blanket over herself. She then placed the phone aside, and slowly closed her eyes.Shane remained silent, watching Haley sleep for a long time. Her delicate features and sharply defined side-profile, along with her long eyelashes, stirred something in his heart.After a while, there was a knock on the door. Dean walked in, saying, "Mr. Ford, there's a banquet the day after tomorrow..."But as soon as he felt the icy stare, his w

    Shane tugged slightly at his slightly open collar, revealing his delicate and sexy collarbone. He said meaningfully, "It would be rude to decline."This man...Haley glanced at him and saw the bite marks she had left on his collarbone last night. Her face flushed bright red as she hurriedly hung up the phone.On her way to a meeting, she ran into William again.William was wearing a white shirt, his hair perfectly groomed. He looked so dazzlingly handsome that it was hard to take your eyes off him. Many young women in the design department were excitedly covering their mouths, quietly squealing.From time to time, there were burning, adoring glances cast his way. Only Haley glanced at him briefly before quickly looking away as she felt that her husband was much more handsome than William!But to others, they had a deep admiration for Haley. They thought to themselves, "Miss Haley is really determined. Facing such a handsome guy like William, she can still remain unmoved."Mr

    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,

    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
