Mrs. Green asked, "Perhaps this question is a bit forward, but I need to ask. Are you deeply in love with your ex-boyfriend?"Jenny gave a bitter smile. "If we were that serious, we wouldn't have broken up."Mrs. Green continued, "One last question. When were you last intimate with him? The time and place, and was it just that once?"Jenny clenched her hands, feeling unsteady. "Mrs. Green, why are you asking me this? It's personal.""I'm sorry if I overstepped," Mrs. Green said, silently cursing her son before explaining, "Here's the situation. Henry called me last night and told me that three months ago, he and you were intimate. I just want to clarify whether this child is your ex-boyfriend's or Henry's.""What? Henry and I... that can't be!" Jenny's eyes widened in disbelief. Fragments of that night suddenly flashed through her mind. She had gotten thoroughly drunk because of William, and in her dazed state, she thought she saw him. She had immediately rushed over and hugge
Jenny stood there in a daze, unable to process what was happening.Henry, holding a bouquet of vibrant red roses, slowly walked towards her. "Jenny, will you be my girlfriend?"Jenny looked up at him, feeling like she was in a dream. "When did you start planning this?"Henry scratched his head. "Right after you left. I wanted to surprise you."Jenny's lips moved as if she wanted to say something, but Henry continued, "I used to be a playboy, always surrounded by women, living a life of indulgence. I thought that was it for me, until I met you."Jenny, since I realized my feelings for you, I’ve cut off all ties with those women. I can’t change my past, but I promise you, from now on, you’ll be the only woman in my life."For the rest of my life, I will do everything to protect you and our child. Please, give me a chance."Hearing his heartfelt confession, Jenny couldn't hold back her tears. She was deeply moved, though a bit of rationality remained. She sniffled and asked, "Are
Shane was unfazed by Haley's deliberate provocation. He tossed her onto the bed and then sat down on the edge, pulling her onto his lap with an unreadable expression.Before Haley could grasp the situation, she found herself draped over Shane's legs. Just as she was about to get up, she heard a soft chuckle above her, followed by two sharp slaps from Shane's broad palm on her bottom."Do you know what you did wrong?"Shane controlled his strength, so it didn't hurt, but realizing what had happened made Haley's face flush instantly. Did she just get spanked?"Shane, you jerk!" she yelled, struggling like an angry little lion cub in his arms. Shane held her tightly, ensuring she wouldn't fall off his lap, his eyes showing a mix of exasperation and tenderness."Haley, be good."His deep voice, filled with a soft helplessness and warmth, sounded like a whisper in her ear. It caused her to calm down immediately, like a kitten being held by the scruff of its neck.Her lips pouted
Rachel was puzzled, but Mrs. Sasha continued, "That wretched woman, Yvonne, couldn't have children of her own and now she's brought in help to divide the Fisher family's wealth! Despicable!"What infuriated her most was Mr. Fisher Sr.'s attitude. He was willing to disregard the dignity of his own grandchildren for an outsider! That old man! How could he still be alive after suffering from illness for so long?Hearing this, Rachel's expression turned dark, clearly remembering the special treatment Haley received from Mr. Fisher Sr.How could she, a granddaughter who had been by his side for over 20 years, be worth less than a newly acknowledged goddaughter?She sneered, disdainfully, "She's just from a small place like Jasper city. What's so special about her? She could be a vulgar woman for all we know, not worth mentioning."Mrs. Sasha frowned, "I heard that Shane is very capable and has a good business mind. Netizens even compare him to the former Charles, saying he's just as
Haley hesitated, glancing at the computer screen in front of him. The screen showed a conference room full of employees waiting for him to start the meeting.She pressed her lips together, then shook her head. "It's fine. You go ahead and finish your meeting. Jenny is with Henry. If you're worried, you can have him stay with her.""That works," Zac nodded in agreement. Even though Henry could be a bit unreliable at times, he was dependable when it mattered. With him protecting the two pregnant women, they could all feel more at ease.After getting their approval, Haley waved goodbye and quickly left. Shane watched her until she disappeared from sight, then turned back to his screen. "Alright, let's continue the meeting." Zac also resumed his work.About half an hour later, Haley and Jenny met up in front of an upscale club. Henry looked at Jenny with concern, asking again, "Are you sure you don't need me to go in with you? This might be a private club with decent security,
Rachel turned her head around to look at the door. When she saw who it was, her expression changed instantly. "W-when did you get here?"Damn it! They were supposed to meet at three in the afternoon, and she arrived 15 minutes early?Haley smiled slightly, her expression calm and composed. "It's basic etiquette not to be late for an appointment. Didn't you learn that?"Rachel's face flushed with anger and embarrassment. Wasn't this clearly implying she had no manners? It infuriated her to the point of almost exploding! She clenched her teeth, her eyes filled with anger. However, thinking of what needed to be done later, she forcibly suppressed her emotions and managed a slight smile."You're joking, Haley. We don't need so many formalities between us juniors. Please, have a seat."Haley raised an eyebrow, surprised at how well Rachel could hold back. But now wasn't the time to fall out completely. She pulled Jenny along to sit down, and Rachel introduced them. "These are my fr
"Are you really the new CEO of JY?" someone asked, looking at Haley with suspicion.Haley nodded. "There's plenty of information about me online. A quick search will tell you."Hearing this, they immediately took out their phones to check. Sure enough, they found photos of Haley at JY events. She was young and beautiful, and even in a black suit, her perfect figure was evident. Her face was fair and flawless, captivating at first glance.They stared at the photos for a long time, gradually falling silent and looking increasingly sheepish. Rachel couldn't stand their submissive attitude and felt a surge of frustration. "Where's your backbone? So what if she's the CEO of JY? Big deal! Nowadays, anyone with money can start a company! Who knows if she got help behind the scenes?"Jenny suddenly laughed. Some people just couldn't admit when others were better than them. Was it really that hard to acknowledge someone else's success?"Miss Fisher, if you invited me here just to insult
But she never expected Haley to show no reaction at all! It felt like punching a pillow, with all her anger bottled up inside, unable to release it. Rachel couldn't help but scream and stomp her foot. She called out, "Get in here!"At her command, a group of well-trained bodyguards in black suits stormed in, surrounding Haley and Jenny."If you're going to be shameless, don't blame me for being rude!" Rachel's eyes narrowed, gleaming with a dangerous light. She had not wanted to go this far but Haley had forced her hand! Her original plan was to flaunt her wealth and status with her friends, making Haley, the bumpkin from a small town, realize she was unworthy of being the Fisher family's eldest daughter. But who knew Haley was the CEO of JY? And to top it off, the dress Rachel adored was designed by Haley herself! This was an immense humiliation for Rachel.Haley looked at the tall men in front of her without saying a word. Jenny tugged on Haley's sleeve, whispering nervous
