Haley snapped back to reality, silently watching him. Her clear eyes were filled with complex emotions that he couldn't quite decipher.

"What happened? Why are you looking at me like that?"

Haley's long eyelashes fluttered slightly as she wrapped her arms tightly around Shane's neck. The more she stayed silent, the more worried Shane became.

He quickly pulled her into his embrace, his broad hand gently patting her back as he comforted her softly, "Don't be sad, my dear. I'm here."

Hearing his tender voice, Haley's tears finally broke free, streaming down her face and landing on Shane's shoulder, their warmth seeping into his heart.

Shane kissed her forehead, his heart aching for her, and spent a long time soothing her until she calmed down. Haley sniffled, refusing to leave his embrace no matter how much he coaxed. Her hands remained firmly wrapped around his waist.

Shane smiled helplessly. "I'm not going anywhere. I'm right here with you. Now, can you tell me what happened?"

    Shane smiled, gently ruffling Haley's hair, and led her to the bed, holding her hand as if afraid she might run away. His anxious demeanor made Haley chuckle."Don't worry, I'm not going anywhere."Shane, however, held her shoulders and had her sit on the edge of the bed while he slowly knelt down to be at eye level with her."Haley, about this... I didn't deliberately hide it from you. When you had the fever and lost your memory, I wasn't in great shape either. I was in the hospital, unconscious for a long time."Haley's eyes widened in surprise, followed by a wave of concern. Seeing the worry in her eyes, Shane felt a warmth spread through his heart and he shook his head with a comforting smile. "It's all in the past. Don't worry."He continued, "When I woke up, I found out that my engagement had been transferred to James. I rushed to find you, but what I saw was you clinging to James."At that moment, even though he didn't understand love, Shane's heart shattered. He went ho

    Shane's heart warmed instantly, a small smile forming on his lips. "Good morning, my wifey."Haley looked up at him. "Do you have any plans for today?"Shane thought for a moment before saying, "If you want to do something, we can. If not, that's fine too."It was the weekend, and any work he had could wait until the evening.Haley thought for a moment, her eyes sparkling. "I need to attend a fashion show. Would you like to come with me?""A fashion show? Is one of JY's designers participating?"Haley shook her head. "No, it's hosted by another company. They sent me two tickets. If you have time, we can go together and maybe grab a meal out."Shane lightly tapped her nose with his finger. "Going out to eat is the real goal, isn't it?"Haley playfully stuck out her tongue and quickly got out of bed. "It's just that the food at home is so bland. There's no flavor."Shane shook his head, smiling. "That's because you're pregnant. The chef is avoiding heavy oils and salt for the he

    The company president was overjoyed, almost moved to tears. A savior! A living saint!"Miss Haley, thank you so much! I never imagined you would think so highly of our company."Haley smiled and shook her head. "It's not your company that interests me. It's you."The president suddenly felt a cold, piercing gaze directed at him. Shane's eyes were sharp and menacing, as if he was about to tear him apart. Meeting Shane's icy stare, the president began to tremble, breaking out in a cold sweat."Miss Haley, you shouldn't say things like that!"Haley glanced at Shane, who was obviously jealous, and couldn't help but laugh. She hooked her pinky finger around Shane's, playfully shaking it. "Don't misunderstand, that's not what I meant."Shane continued to glare at the company president. How dare this guy catch Haley's attention, even to the point of her investing money?Just as Shane was about to do something, he felt Haley's finger hook his. He looked down and met her eyes.His Ada

    Now, she could not go anywhere.Haley lazily lifted her eyelids and replied with two simple words, "A date."Rachel was left speechless, angrily turning off the TV and storming upstairs to sulk. She silently remarked, "Hmph, just because I'm single, they have to rub it in!"Watching her retreat, Haley couldn't help but laugh. She wondered how Rachel had been spoiled to develop such a princess complex."When is she leaving?" Shane asked bluntly.Haley propped her chin on her hand and thought for a moment. "Not sure, Zac still hasn't finished his work."Shane frowned slightly and took out his phone to send a message to Zac, "Get your sister out of here."After about five minutes, Zac replied, "Sorry, I've been really busy lately. I have a lot of patients coming in these days. It might be next week."Zac asked, "Did Rachel get into trouble?"Shane replied, "No, she didn't."Zac breathed a sigh of relief. Thank goodness...He had feared his sister had upset Shane again.But b

    Shane waved the spatula in his hand, smiling. "Didn't you say the food from our chef was bland? I'm cooking for you myself."A wave of warmth washed over Haley. She stepped forward and wrapped her arms around Shane's strong waist, nuzzling her soft cheek against his firm chest."Hubby, you're so good to me..."Shane gently patted her head, his voice filled with affection. "You're my wife. Who else would I be good to?"Haley's smile widened, her eyes twinkling with happiness. "I'm lucky to be your wife. I want to be your wife forever."Shane tapped her nose playfully. "Forever it is."They shared a tender smile before Shane turned off the stove and plated the dish he had been cooking."Alright, there's just one more dish to make. There's a lot of smoke in here, so why don't you step out for a bit?"Haley didn't move, her curiosity piqued. "What's the last dish?"Shane gave her a mysterious smile. "Guess.""Whatever," Haley pouted and turned to leave. She didn't need to guess s

    Shane tugged at his tie, repeating his question, "Where are you going?"Though his face was expressionless, it was clear he was on the verge of being upset.Haley nervously swallowed, feeling a bit guilty. "I... Jenny asked me to go shopping with her, and then I'll accompany her to her prenatal checkup."Shane's frown deepened. "And where is Henry? Why isn't he going with her?""I asked the same thing! Henry is so unreliable, not even bothering with such an important thing like a prenatal checkup. It's outrageous!"Haley put her hands on her hips, indignantly expressing her stance. She was determined not to side with Henry on this.Shane couldn't help but laugh, reaching out to pinch her soft cheek. "I've seen through you. Stop acting."Haley awkwardly smiled. "I'm not acting! Henry has a crucial project to discuss and can't go with her. As her best friend, I can't just leave her hanging."Shane gave her a sidelong glance. "So, you decided to abandon your husband instead?"Fee

    "Alright, Bob, I'm heading upstairs now. You should get some rest too."Haley waved to the butler and dashed upstairs. Watching her retreating figure, the butler smiled warmly. "Madam has become so cheerful. It's wonderful."He remembered when Haley first moved into the Violet Grove. She was always calm and gentle but rarely smiled, often appearing somewhat melancholic. He had even caught her lost in thought a few times. Fortunately, those days were behind her now. With a new life and a brighter personality, she seemed happier.Thinking about the love between her and Shane, the butler couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.Unaware of the butler's thoughts, Haley quietly retrieved an item from her bag and hid it after returning to her room. After a shower, she started watching a drama, waiting for Shane to come home. It was around eleven when Shane finally walked in, looking exhausted but still exuding his usual grace and charm.Haley opened her arms and gave him a sweet sm

    Even from a distance, Haley felt a tingle in her ears at the sound of Shane's husky voice, sending shivers down her spine. Her cheeks flushed as she quickly pulled out something hidden beneath the pillow. "Here, this is for you."Shane took it, his eyes widening as he realized what it was. "An ultrasound report?"Haley nodded, smiling as she pointed to the image. "The doctor said our baby is doing very well. Even though the body isn't fully developed yet, you can tell it's getting all the nutrients it needs. And soon, we'll be able to hear the baby's heartbeat."The sight of the ultrasound filled her with an overwhelming sense of happiness. Shane stared at the report for a long moment, speechless.Haley nudged his chest gently. "What's wrong?"Shane snapped out of his reverie, pulling Haley into his arms, letting her rest her head on his shoulder. "I’m just feeling a bit sentimental. I never imagined there’d be a little one in my life, carrying on our family.""Are you happy?"

    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
