Just thinking about Jenny made Henry furious! He had never met a woman as infuriating as Jenny. She drove him crazy!

"What happened between you two?" Shane asked, puzzled.

"I..." Henry stammered, unable to find the words. He could not very well say that he had been inexplicably slept with, only for her to run off and get together with another man. That would be too embarrassing!

"In short, Jenny and I are mortal enemies. I will never forgive her for as long as I live!" he declared.

Shane fell silent, leaning back in his leather office chair, his fingers tapping rhythmically on the armrest, lost in thought.

Henry was feeling guilty and worried that Shane might ask more questions.

Afraid that it would ruin his reputation, he quickly said, "Don't worry, I've already instructed HR to hire Jenny," and then hung up the phone before Shane could respond. It was clear he was feeling guilty.

Shane stared at his phone screen for a long time before finally shaking his head with a sigh. He

    "Mr. Ford!"Upon hearing the familiar voice, Shane's back stiffened for a moment. He quickly released his grip on William's collar. He straightened his slightly disheveled suit, and shot William a cold, warning glance.William adjusted his own clothes and laughed. "It's nothing, we were just sparring."Haley glanced at William, then took Shane by the hand and led him into the office. The design department director frowned and couldn't help but ask, "William, be honest with me, do you have a thing for Miss Haley?"William was taken aback, then chuckled softly. He did not give a direct answer, which the director took as confirmation.Sighing, the director patted William's shoulder and advised, "William, I know you young folks believe in fighting for love, but Miss Haley is married. You need to keep it professional at work."William nodded. "Don't worry, Director. I know what to do."The director finally looked satisfied.In the office, as soon as the door closed, Shane pulled Hal

    Seeing Shane's jealous expression, Haley felt a mix of exasperation and amusement. She grabbed his hand and gently shook it, saying coquettishly, "Hubby, of course, you are the one I care about the most!"Shane's hand was large and dry, with a slight callus at the knuckles, a stark contrast to Haley's soft and delicate hands. The tender touch in his palm, combined with Haley's sweet, soft voice, struck a chord in Shane's heart. Even the hardest of hearts would melt in such a moment.He was completely captivated, forgetting any anger he felt. "Alright, I'll let it slide this time," he said, lifting his chin in a gesture of reluctant satisfaction.Having been together for so long, Haley knew him too well. The more calm and composed he appeared on the outside, the more tumultuous his emotions were inside. He was probably secretly delighted.But she did not call him out on it. "Mr. Ford, quickly tell me, what did Henry say? Is he deliberately targeting Jenny?""We'll talk about that l

    "Did I just interrupt something between Mr. Ford and Miss Haley? Will I even keep my job after this?" Sue muttered to herself.Haley returned to her desk, noticing Sue's complex gaze shifting between her and Shane, making her uneasy. She cleared her throat and asked, "Sue, do you have something to report?"Sue snapped out of her thoughts and quickly handed over the documents. "Miss Haley, there's an urgent file that needs your review."Haley nodded, quickly scanning the document. "The file looks fine, but we can negotiate the price a bit lower. The quality of the fabric from this company is good, so we can continue working with them."Sue nodded, taking back the file. "I won't disturb you any longer. You two, carry on, carry on..." She quickly walked out in her high heels, not giving Haley a chance to explain.Haley sighed, rubbing her forehead. "Has my image with the staff completely collapsed?"Shane, on the other hand, seemed unbothered and even chuckled. "Your secretary is qu

    The two friends chatted on the phone for a long time, covering everything from work to their next shopping trip and new restaurants to try. They talked about everything under the sun, completely ignoring Shane, the legitimate husband, who was right there.As time went by, Shane's expression grew darker, and the atmosphere in the office became increasingly tense, like a storm brewing. However, the cause of this tension remained blissfully unaware, happily sharing company gossip with her best friend.It wasn't until a loud, disapproving cough broke the conversation that Haley finally looked up, puzzled, at Shane.Feeling suffocated with frustration, Shane wanted to scold her for being so thoughtless. But as soon as he met her clear, innocent eyes, all his anger melted away. He sighed, poured her a glass of warm water, and handed it to her, worried that she might get a sore throat from talking too long.Haley was in the middle of a delightful conversation with Jenny when a hand holdin

    Having said this, she took Shane's hand and left the company. Sue stood there, staring at Haley's back for a while, a conflicted look in her eyes. But the feeling came and went quickly, and she soon returned to her usual self....The next afternoon, after finishing a meeting, Haley took Sue to the Saint Doria Hotel to meet a client. This was her first time meeting clients since taking on her new role. The client was a supplier who had been working with JY for over a decade, providing fabrics. Under Joe's mismanagement, many suppliers had expressed dissatisfaction and considered ending their contracts. But recently, they had started reaching out again, wanting to renew their agreements. Haley wanted to find out what was going on.Sue, carrying the files and following closely behind in her high heels, asked, "Miss Haley, we've already decided to go with another supplier. Why are we attending this dinner?""To teach them a lesson. Otherwise, they'll think JY is still the weak com

    Haley walked into the private room and, in front of the gathered executives, casually found a seat and poured herself a drink. The executives exchanged puzzled looks, unsure of her intentions."Please, sit down," Haley said with a slight smile, her slender, fair fingers gently swirling the glass of wine. Her relaxed and elegant demeanor captivated everyone's attention. "After all, I'm the junior here. It wouldn't be right for you all to stand while I sit."The men's eyes gleamed with increased greed and lust. "Shane certainly knows how to enjoy life," they thought. "A top-tier beauty like her is incredibly rare. I wonder how skilled she is in bed..."Each of them began to silently form their own plans.They had done their homework before coming here and knew that JY had not finalized a new supplier yet. Haley must be seeking their continued cooperation. They did not really care who they partnered with, but they figured she would have to pay a price.Sue stood behind Haley, noticin

    Haley sneered, "Who wants to make money with you? Haven't you heard the news? This morning, JY signed a contract with a new supplier."The men were stunned, realizing they had been played. "Haley, what is the meaning of this? If you had no intention of signing with us, why agree to this dinner?" Haley had not intended to deceive anyone. She had agreed to the meeting out of respect for their decade-long cooperation with JY, thinking it was courteous to maintain good relations within the industry. But as soon as she arrived, she overheard their disrespectful remarks.She smiled and picked up her glass, slowly swirling the wine. "I originally planned to maintain good relations with you, but the moment I walked in, I heard you discussing my 'skills in bed'... So, are you all very skilled in bed?"The executives' faces turned red with embarrassment. Any ordinary young woman would blush at such crude remarks, but Haley spoke without the slightest hint of shame, which made it even more

    Just then, the door to the private room was suddenly pushed open from the outside. Shane rushed in with a tense expression, immediately moving to Haley’s side. “Are you okay? Did anyone hurt you?”Henry and Zac followed closely behind him, their faces also filled with concern. But as they took in the scene in the room, they were stunned.A group of men huddled in the corner, trembling and wishing they could disappear. One man had wet his pants and was clutching his arm in pain, clearly having been dealt with harshly. Haley, petite and seemingly delicate, stood with an innocent look on her fair face, holding a shattered wine glass. It was not hard to imagine what had just transpired.Henry and Zac exchanged glances with their eyebrows raised in disbelief. They never expected Haley to have such a ferocious side. It was unbelievable!As soon as Shane appeared, Haley hastily hid the wine glass behind her back and quickly dropped it to the floor. Then, she called out softly, “Mr. Ford

    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
