Shane gently rubbed Haley's hair and spoke softly, comforting her. "It's human nature to look out for their own interests. Although Sue was never given an official status, Joe has always treated her well. It's understandable that she would work for Joe."

Haley nodded, still feeling down. Shane did not say anything more, simply waiting for Haley to process her emotions and come to terms with everything on her own.

This experience was a necessary part of her growth, something she needed to understand slowly. Even though the process might be painful, it was the only way for her to truly transform.

He could have handled everything himself, keeping Haley completely sheltered, but that wasn’t what she wanted.

She was not a clinging vine that depended on others to survive. She was a rose that had walked through thorns.

She wanted to climb higher and see further, which meant she had to face these challenges. Otherwise, she would fall even harder in the future.

    In addition to their stunning looks, Shane and Haley were dressed impeccably. Although the brands weren't obvious, it was clear their clothes were expensive.As a result, many people in the restaurant kept glancing over at them with curiosity and gossip in their eyes. Some even took out their phones to snap photos and record videos.Haley was used to this kind of attention, so she just glanced around briefly before returning her focus to the table. Shane, however, frowned. He wasn't worried about his photo being posted online. He just disliked being stared at. Normally, he would book a private room for dining. However, this small restaurant did not have any, so they had to sit outside.Shane's eyes scanned the room with a cold, sharp gaze which was full of intensity and authority. Many people, intimidated by his strong presence, quickly looked away. Satisfied, Shane poured Haley a cup of tea and waited for the food to be served.Haley rested her chin on one hand and scrolled th

    Two days later, Sue's condition had stabilized. Lying in her hospital bed, she was scrolling through the day's news and saw that Zoe had been taken away by the police for investigation. A smile spread across her face, and she even started humming a tune, feeling quite cheerful.Gently stroking her belly, she murmured, "Baby, Mommy has finally removed a major obstacle for you. When your daddy comes out, our family will be reunited."What made her even happier was that JY had fallen into a new crisis. Haley would be too busy to deal with her. Once Joe got out of prison, he would surely be able to take back control of JY. The child in her belly was likely Joe's only son. The inheritance of JY would naturally fall to her son.As for Haley, she was just a stepping stone. That was why Sue had insisted on staying at JY, disguising herself to gain Haley's trust and gather dirt on her. Thinking of all she had done, Sue felt even more delighted.Everyone praised Haley for being beautiful

    "The leak of our design drafts was also your doing. We have already restored the surveillance footage deleted by you.""Impossible! That's absolutely impossible!" Sue's eyes widened in disbelief. She couldn't believe what she was hearing. In her mind, even though Haley was smarter than expected, how could the deleted footage be restored? Haley must be lying to her! That had to be it!Seeing Sue's disbelief, Haley shook her head slightly and played the video on her phone. "Sue, you were too hasty. You forgot that there are many skilled hackers in this world. Your deletion techniques are child's play to them."Sue stared at the surveillance footage on Haley's phone, her legs suddenly giving way as she collapsed to the ground. The police seized the moment to step forward and take her away.Before leaving, Sue turned around, choking back tears, and asked, "Why? Why are you doing this to me? Haley, I should never have shown you any mercy!"Haley scoffed, "Mercy? You didn't have t

    The roles of a junior assistant and an executive secretary were very different! As a junior assistant, her tasks usually involved organizing schedules, handling correspondence, and delivering messages between departments. But the responsibilities of an executive secretary were much more extensive. They would need to take meeting minutes, communicate with various departments, and report daily activities to the CEO.The thought of these duties made Layla's head spin. She had never been particularly clever and had never aspired to promotions or raises. For her, simply performing her current job well was enough.Realizing this, Layla quickly said, "Miss Haley, I really can't handle those responsibilities. Please find someone else for the job."Seeing Layla's pale, frightened face, Haley shook her head with a sigh. "Alright, I won't force you. If you ever change your mind, come talk to me."Though Layla's work skills were not as sharp as Sue's and her personality wasn't particularly

    Sue opened her mouth, trying to defend herself. But in the end, not a single word came out. She slowly lowered her head, tears of regret streaming down her face and dripping onto her hands."I'm sorry..." she whispered repeatedly, not knowing how to make amends.Haley did not want to listen any longer and was about to hang up when Sue's voice came through again. "Miss Haley, I know my actions are unforgivable, but please give me a chance to make it right.""What are you trying to say?" Haley asked, puzzled.Summoning all her courage, Sue said, "The person who asked me to record that video was William."Haley's heart sank, and her voice turned cold. "Why would he do that?""I don't know, but I overheard him mentioning that he has a grudge against Shane. He wants revenge, and you... you just happen to be the person Shane cares about the most."Haley's grip on the phone tightened. Her mind was in turmoil, though she tried to remain calm on the surface. "Alright, I understand."She

    Haley lifted her gaze from the document in front of her and looked at Layla. "Don't worry, take your time."Having dealt with so many incidents, Haley had grown accustomed to handling unexpected situations. So, while Layla was visibly flustered, Haley remained calm and composed.Layla took a deep breath to steady herself and said, "The sales manager just called. Our online store's entire inventory of clothes has been sold out."A flash of surprise crossed Haley's eyes. "What's going on?"Layla quickly handed over her phone and explained, "Someone posted an article this morning trying to badmouth you, but it backfired. After reading about your story, many people felt sympathy for you and went to our online store to make purchases."JY was a well-known, long-established brand in the country, offering clothing in three tiers: high-end, mid-range, and budget.The high-end line catered to the upper class, using top-quality fabrics and renowned designers. The mid-range line, which wa

    "I'm done with work. I'm coming to pick you up," Shane said."I don't want you to go through the trouble. I can get home on my own." Despite her words, Haley couldn't suppress the smile on her lips.Shane insisted, "Picking up my wife from work is part of being the perfect husband.""Alright then, my perfect husband, I'll be waiting for you," Haley said.She then blew him a kiss with a smile and hung up the phone. Shane looked at the disconnected screen and chuckled.He thought to himself, "This little one is getting cheekier by the day. Let's see how I deal with her later!"Twenty minutes later, a black luxury car pulled up outside the JY building, catching the attention of many passersby. Shane stepped out, straightened his slightly wrinkled clothes, and walked into the building. As soon as he entered, he drew numerous admiring and curious glances.Without looking around, Shane headed straight for the private elevator. As soon as the elevator doors closed, an excited buzz

    Half an hour later, Haley finally finished all her documents for the day and stretched lazily. When she looked up, she met Shane's gaze.She was momentarily surprised, then laughed lightly. "Mr. Ford, have you been watching me this whole time?""Yes, unlike someone who gets so engrossed in work they completely forget about others," he replied, his voice tinged with mock annoyance.Haley quickly stood up and ran into Shane's arms, pouting. "Mr. Ford, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have ignored you. How can I make it up to you?"Shane's eyes darkened as he looked at her cherry-red lips. He leaned down and kissed her deeply. "This will do," he murmured."Mm..." Haley was caught off guard, her lips sealed by his. Her eyes widened in surprise.In the next moment, Shane's tongue pried her mouth open, invading and intertwining with her own, filling her with his breath.Haley tilted her head back, her long lashes fluttering like feathers, stirring a deep desire in Shane. His gaze deepened

    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
