Haley and Shane exchanged a glance, immediately guessing that Jenny was thinking about James.

Henry noticed the shift in mood too and cleared his throat, "Eat up, everyone. Eat more."

He added food to Jenny's plate, trying to cheer her up.

Jenny, understanding that everyone was concerned about her, smiled faintly. "I'm fine. Everyone's been through a bad breakup when they were young, right? I've moved on."

Haley put down her utensils and said softly, "Jenny, no matter what happens, I'll always be on your side."

"Yeah, I know," Jenny replied with a smile.

Henry tried to lighten the mood. "It's such a good day. Why bring up that jerk? Eat more. If it's not enough, I'll have the hotel send more dishes."

With Henry's efforts, the atmosphere at the table became lively again.

After sending off their friends, it was already past midnight. Haley was exhausted and collapsed onto the sofa.

Shane looked at her lazy and relaxed posture, unable to suppress a smile. "Tired? Let’s go upstai

    At that moment, the sound of ripping fabric echoed in the room as her nightgown was torn in two. Her fair, delicate skin was exposed to Shane’s burning gaze. His eyes were blazing with desire. Haley sighed inwardly, counting how many nightgowns she had gone through. Too many to remember. Since marrying Shane, she had bought countless nightgowns. To make things easier, Shane had dedicated an entire wall in their closet just for her nightgowns. The wardrobe was filled with every kind of nightwear imaginable—from modest round necks to thin spaghetti straps, and even some daring, sexy lingerie. She could wear a different one every night for a year and still have some left. Despite this, Shane thought it was not enough. If Haley had not stopped him, he probably would have set up another closet just for nightwear.Noticing that Haley was distracted, Shane moved his hips, deliberately intensifying her sensations. A wave of tingling and intense pleasure surged through her, causing

    Ten minutes later, everyone reluctantly gathered in the conference room. When they saw Haley's cold, expressionless face, they felt a sinking feeling of dread.Hearing the footsteps, Haley turned her head toward the door. Seeing them standing there without coming in, she raised an eyebrow. "What? Is there a monster inside?""No, no!"Everyone shook their heads vigorously, afraid Haley might get angry.Once they were seated, no one dared to breathe too loudly, fearing Haley might settle scores.However, five minutes passed, and Haley had not said a word. She just stared at them quietly. Though she was beautiful, their guilty consciences made her gaze unsettling.Finally, someone could not bear it anymore and stood up abruptly. "Miss Haley, I'm sorry. I apologize for my past mistakes."Seeing this, others followed suit, standing up and apologizing one by one. Their voices were so loud that even with the conference room's good soundproofing, people in the hallway could hear them.

    With this reassurance, everyone who had been nervous felt a wave of calm wash over them.Yes, they had Miss Haley! She was so capable and under her leadership, they were bound to succeed! Gradually, everyone began to feel hopeful and confident about this collaboration.Haley observed everyone's expressions, a hint of a smile in her clear eyes. She began to assign tasks, instructing everyone to be diligent and strive to secure this partnership. The team, excited and motivated, eagerly took on their assignments and immediately dove into their work.After the meeting, Sue approached with a file in hand, her expression one of surprise. "Miss Haley, I just received a call from Morning Dew Design Co. They said they're coming to visit this afternoon. Is that true?""Of course," Haley replied with a slight smile.Sue covered her mouth in disbelief, her eyes wide with surprise. "Miss Haley, when did this happen? Why didn't you tell me earlier? You gave me quite a shock!"Haley glanced a

    "I might be home late tonight. There's still a lot to do. Don't wait up for me," Haley said into the phone.On the other end, there was a brief silence before Shane's low, slightly aggrieved voice replied, "Alright then, just don't drink tonight and come home early."A sweet smile appeared on Haley's face. "Okay, I know."After hanging up, Luna teased, "I never would have guessed that the famously cold-hearted Mr. Ford could be like this in private."Haley's cheeks turned a bit red. "He can be a bit childish sometimes. Sorry you had to see that."Luna waved her hand dismissively. "Not at all, I find it quite refreshing."She could not fathom how a man as powerful and aloof as Mr. Ford could be so submissive to one woman. It was almost unbelievable. Luna's eyes held a newfound respect for Haley.After dinner with Luna, it was past ten at night. Though Haley had only had one glass of wine, her head was already feeling light. Her pale cheeks were tinged with an unusual flush, and

    Especially now that she was pregnant, facing such an adorable and obedient Haley, Sue had no resistance. However, thinking of what she needed to do, the smile on Sue's face faded a bit."Miss Haley, drink some water to sober up?""I'm not drunk!" Haley pouted but still obediently took the water. Just as she was about to drink, Sue's sharp voice rang out."Wait—"Haley paused, and before she knew it, the glass was taken from her hand.Sue forced a smile, explaining, "I thought I saw a bug in the cup. Let me get you a new one."Haley shook her head, using the table to stand up. "Never mind, I don't want it. Let's go home."Right now, she really, really wanted to see Shane and share her joy with him.Sue silently dumped the water and quickly helped Haley out of the hotel. She had called a driver ahead of time, but to her surprise, they ran into an unexpected person at the hotel entrance.Seeing the man's face, Sue's pupils contracted."Mr. Ford?"Shane gave a slight nod and shi

    Haley's voice was soft and sweet, with an irresistible charm. Hearing her, Shane felt his heart melt completely. How could his Haley be so adorable and endearing?He lowered his head, gently kissed her smooth, full forehead. His eyes were filled with endless love.After holding her for a while, Haley started to fidget in Shane's arms. It felt like a fire was burning inside her, threatening to consume her entirely. She furrowed her brows slightly, instinctively reaching up to tug at her collar. The top button of her white shirt quickly came undone, revealing a patch of smooth, white skin."So hot..."Seeing her action, Shane's eyelid twitched, and he quickly grabbed her hand to stop her from going any further. He sighed and fixed her shirt, softly coaxing, "Hang in there, we're almost home. Just a little longer, okay?"But Haley, feeling uncomfortable, could not hear his words. She squirmed, trying to break free from Shane's embrace. Normally, she loved snuggling into Shane's

    The butler listened and felt even more sympathy for her. He glared at Shane, his tone filled with worry and reproach. "Madam is still young and doesn't know better. Why didn't you stop her? How much did she drink? Just look at her, all flushed..."He kept muttering, his voice laced with concern for Haley. Normally, anyone daring to speak to Shane like this would face his icy demeanor, but now he remained silent.When the butler finally stopped, Shane calmly said, "Haley is asleep. I'll take her upstairs."Realizing what he had just done, the butler felt a wave of anxiety. He quickly stepped aside, making way for Shane. As Shane carried Haley up the stairs, the butler regretted his outburst. Was he out of his mind? What had possessed him to speak to his boss that way? Was Shane considering firing him now?Shane, unaware of the butler's worries, gently laid Haley on the soft bed. He carefully tucked her in before leaving the room.Half an hour later, Shane appeared in the private

    "No, no, it's not like that! Mr. Ford, please listen to me!" Xena struggled to crawl towards Shane, her voice frantic and desperate. "It wasn't me, it really wasn't me. Mr. Ford, please believe me! I wasn't even at the competition that day!"Shane sneered, "Do you need me to explain why you weren't at the competition that day?"He stared at Xena intently, his eyes filled with a cold, sharp glint. His gaze was as if he were looking at a person on death row. Xena shivered under his icy, piercing eyes, feeling as though she had been plunged into an ice-cold abyss. Her shoulders hunched, and her voice, which had been full of panic and urgency, grew weaker and less confident.Despite her usual arrogance and willfulness, she knew better than to ignore the gravity of the situation. Shane might have seemed calm on the surface, but his deep eyes held a storm of fury. This Shane, with his understated but overwhelming presence, scared her to the core. It was an instinctual fear, the kind t

    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
