No matter how conflicted she felt, time and tide did not wait for her.

The next morning, Hailey went to the mansion to request a leave of absence from her mother-in-law, Lilian. When Lilian found out that Hailey had to go to the museum for work, older woman told Hailey to work hard.

“By the way, what is Travis up to recently? Has any woman come to the company looking for him?” Lilian asked casually before Hailey left.

Hailey paused for a moment to think about what she should say. Mrs. Lambert came to the company looking for him yesterday. I have seen pictures of Mrs. Lambert, so I recognized her.

“What did she want?” Lilian had not heard the news that Travis had brought a lady to attend the grand opening party at the Chalcox Club.

“I don’t know, but I heard that the Lambert family is not doing very well recently. Maybe she wants to ask Travis for help,” Hailey replied.

Lilian snorted. “Travis told me the Lambert family took those pictures. He will never offer them a helping hand.” Aft

    After spending the entire afternoon exploring the museum, Hailey and Christian had not finished their outing yet. They planned to continue after lunch. Following the brief exchange in the morning, the atmosphere between the two became strange the entire afternoon. Perhaps it was because Christian had thought things through, but his attitude suddenly became natural. He stopped saying ambiguous words and casually made Hailey explain any beautiful exhibition that caught her interest.Hailey sighed in relief. While it was understandable for Christian to feel sad for a while, it was still preferable to him being sorrowful all day. The two enjoyed lunch near the museum before heading back inside the building. As they climbed the stairs and were about to explore the second-floor exhibition hall, a reckless teenager spilled coke on Hailey.“Ah! I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to, I didn’t mean to,” the boy, who seemed about thirteen or fourteen years old, panicked.The boy had completely ruined Hail

    William took Hailey to a luxurious five-star hotel. Hailey’s stained dress attracted attention once again, but it didn’t bother her. However, she was very confused. Why was Travis here? Was he socializing with some business clients today? What problems could he have encountered in a place like this? She threw the first two questions at William.William pondered it. He realized it was straightforward to answer these two questions and said, “The Lamberts invited Mr. Blake here to discuss cooperation between their companies.”“The Lamberts?” Hailey asked. “Could it be that both parties couldn’t agree and started fighting?” Hailey wondered.“If they were really fighting, do you think I would have time to come pick you up?”William never imagined that the dignified Lamberts would descend to such a low level. When William realized that the head of the Lambert family had actually encouraged his daughter to commit such a heinous act, his respectful assessment of the family crumbled beneath hi

    Lying on the bed, Hailey, who didn’t even want to lift a finger, cursed Sofia in her heart.When Sophia has a boyfriend in the future, Hailey must find an even stronger drug and let her have it so that Sophia can also experience this hell.Oh wait. Sophia wanted to experience it, but Travis didn’t give her a chance.Hailey weakly asked, “Did you say Sophia not only drugged you but also installed several hidden cameras in this room?”“Yes,” Travis had snapped out of his frenzy state. He frowned as he looked at the bruises on Hailey’s body. This time, he wouldn’t let Sophia off so easily. As soon as the Lamberts dare to attack him, he will retaliate and seek revenge.“Why did she do this?” Hailey asked. “Is she trying to use the video to blackmail you?”Travis replied, “It’s not that simple. She probably wants evidence that I raped her.”His eyes narrowed. “The drug she used was too strong. If it had been someone else, they could have faced certain death.”Hailey was very upset. Sophia

    The following days saw the Lamberts facing their toughest weekend yet. Originally, they hoped things would improve after Sophia’s success. However, they couldn’t reach her throughout the weekend. They even called Sonny, Travis’s personal assistant, but Sonny claimed he did not know where Travis and Sophia were.Amid their distressing situation, the Lamberts briefly forgot about Sofia. They thought Sophia and Travis were getting along because they were together. They did not know that things had spiraled out of their control.They closely monitored Sophia during her detention. They even assigned a woman to accompany Sophia to the bathroom. After two nights, they finally released her on Monday morning.After Hailey woke up, she remembered her car was still in the museum parking lot. She was about to ask Travis to send someone to help her drive her car back, but then she remembered Christian’s roses were still in her car.Her heart skipped a beat. She immediately dismissed the idea and w

    Upon examining these two tickets, Hailey suddenly recalled the two movie tickets she had previously owned. It had been so long, and she wondered if Christian had forgotten about them. It would be beneficial if he did, Hailey thought to herself. She had already made it clear to him that getting to know him in such an ambiguous way was not a beneficial thing. If she wasn’t firm, he would probably have false hopes. She couldn’t give him that kind of hope. What she didn’t know was that Christian, in fact, had not forgotten about them. His sister could attend none of the premieres because of her busy schedule. This was also the reason the siblings had gotten into a heated argument that lasted several days.Hailey silently observed Delilah throughout the day. She soon discovered that Delilah had not let go of her feelings for Travis and was simply putting on a convincing act. As evidence, Delilah refused to enter Travis’s office when he asked her to deliver some documents. Instead, she had

    “I will treat what happened that night as an accident. I hope you can forget about it too, Mrs. Lambert. I don’t want anyone else to find out about that incident either.”This was something Hailey considered of utmost importance. Hailey didn’t want to see Sophia again; given their previous encounter, Hailey had to ensure Sophia remained silent.“It’s impossible to forget, and you wouldn’t believe me even if I said I would.” Sophia chuckled a bit.“But don’t worry. I won’t say anything about it. Whatever happened that night is not honorable for me either.”Sophia had tried to gain an advantage ruthlessly, only to end up worse off. To exacerbate the situation, her actions had unintentionally pushed Hailey further into Travis’s affections. Looking back, it was a terrible move. She had been too naïve to expect that doing so could save the Lamberts.“Do you know what was going through my mind at that moment?” Hailey also felt compelled to express this.“You must have hated me to death, rig

    Thalia did not like Mary's personality, and she doubted she would like Mary's niece either. When Thalia found out that Mary wanted to match her niece with Travis, she secretly planted a spy in Mary's house to gather more information.The moment Travis heard the news, he could sense that his mother was not pleased with the arrangement. Alternatively, she harbored a strong dislike for any woman associated with the Hewitt family.Of course, he didn't like them either. Despite rejecting a large-scale matchmaking plan, he now had to face a series of small-scale plans. His family did not give in at all.Travis never had much patience. However, time and time again, many continued to try his temper. He couldn't help the annoyance bubbling inside him."When is that person coming?" He didn't use the word "woman" because he didn't want Hailey to find out.Thalia stated, "We haven't set the exact date yet.""I just know it's confirmed. Since they started planning, it will definitely happen. I wan

    “But you’re not like me,” Mary continued.Hailey waited quietly for Mary to provide more details.“You’re alone in the Blake family, whereas I have a husband and twin daughters.”“I have support. Who do you have?” Mary taunted.You cannot rely on your mother-in-law because she is incapable of giving birth. Do not become upset about what I said.Hailey didn’t comment on Mary’s biting words, but she struggled to contain the burst of anger that ran through her.So what if Rowena couldn’t give birth to her children? She still raised Calvin, an abandoned orphan, and loved him as if he were her own blood. Dying from illness was a fate that no one could avoid.Of course, Hailey would not defend Rowena. Mary’s words simply disgusted her.“The best thing for a woman is to have a husband she can trust. However, you don’t have a husband to rely on. You could only trust yourself." Mary continued to urge Hailey. “For freedom and remarriage, you must trust yourself. However, if you cooperate with m

    “The grandmother has already decided for Violet to leave the company.”That was all Hailey said in her report to Travis.Travis, who was currently attending a dinner, couldn’t help but laugh at the brief statement. He thought Hailey would at least give him a full report on what exactly Lilian had said, but she didn’t.She was a woman of few words, wasn’t she?“And the others?” Travis asked when she offered nothing else.Actually, receiving a call from his mother before Hailey came to him, he didn’t need her report to know what his grandmother had said. Thalia had told him everything.But Travis wanted to hear what Hailey had to say. He felt a little regretful about having to attend this dinner tonight.“You can ask your mother about the others,” Hailey replied.Travis inwardly sighed. She was really keeping him in suspense!“Mr. Blake,” a warm voice interrupted Travis’ thoughts.Looking up, he saw a young woman who seemed vaguely familiar, but he couldn’t remember who she was. He nodd

    On this day, Hailey’s journey to the ancient chapel of the Blake matriarch was turbulent. First, she received a call from Rowena while on her way there.“What’s up with that video of Violet? Is it real or fake?” Rowena asked.Hailey was surprised. “You saw that video too?”“That video is all over her company right now. Why is it strange for me to see it too?” Rowena replied.“That video is real. Special effects were edited in, but the content is completely real,” Hailey responded.“You speak as if you were a personal witness to the incident.” Just as Rowena said that she halted. “It can’t be that you were the one who recorded the video, right?”Hailey covered up the truth, saying, “It had nothing to do with me. Someone else recorded it, but the content is true.”“Fine. Do you know what to say if your grandmother asks you about this?” Rowena asked.Mary Hewitt had played a good game, even shamelessly sending her niece to Travis. She had always exalted herself, and now she was going to

    Hailey was stunned. What did he mean when he said he was disgusted with Violet that afternoon?“What’s wrong with him?” Hailey asked.Initially, she wanted to push Travis away. But when she heard his words, her resistant hands lightly settled on his waist.“During my lunch meeting, she hurried in, looking dirty, and asked for permission to go home and change clothes. It was really disgusting,” Travis said.Hailey knew Travis didn’t like Violet, but she didn’t expect him to feel disgusted by her as well. His obsession with cleanliness, which he was unwilling to admit, left her speechless.After giving it some thought, she couldn’t resist asking, “So, are you full now?”Travis was about to say he was fine, even if he wasn’t full, when a thought crossed his mind. He quickly changed his words.“No,” he said calmly.“So, would you like me to place an order for delivery?” Hailey inquired after a brief pause. Hailey inquired after a brief pause.“Forget it.” Travis hugged her without moving.

    The middle-aged woman looked at Hailey, and she knew she was a secretary in the secretarial department. After a brief pause, she said, “That was the new secretary, right? When he passed by me, his leg twisted. He stumbled into me, causing my bucket to tip over. The dirty water from the bucket splashed on his body and dirtied his clothes.”Seeing that she was talking to someone from the secretarial department who could report to the boss on her behalf, the middle-aged woman recounted the dispute she had just had with Violet. She told the story vividly.Wiping away tears, she added sadly, “I can’t afford to compensate her with such expensive clothes, so she threatened to kill me. I’m uncertain about her intentions, but if Mr. Blake inquires about this incident, you were also present. Say something positive on my behalf.”Hailey was speechless. This cleaner had quite a talent for acting. Hailey thought Violet’s leg might have twisted because of the pain from her shoes. She might have acc

    “I didn’t go for Mr. Blake’s sake. To fulfill my family’s task, I felt compelled to take part in the matchmaking party.”If Michelle had never said those words to Hailey, then even if the latter had found out that the former was interested in Travis, she wouldn’t have held a grudge. However, it was precisely because of those words that Hailey felt deceived. No one would feel comfortable with this kind of feeling, especially Hailey, who had fallen in love with Travis.Michelle was well aware of this. Although Michelle was unaware that Hailey also harbored feelings for Travis, that Michelle had deceived Hailey and planned to exploit her left a negative impression on this junior member of the Blake family.Even though Hailey didn’t hold a significant position in the family, she was still considered a young lady. Being part of the Blake family, she could meet the elders at any time. If she were to utter disparaging remarks about Michelle in their presence, she might face consequences.Mic

    Helena listened to Travis’s words with fear. She had never mentioned Luna in front of Hailey, so the latter must have heard about her from others.“Mr. Blake, Mrs. Stewart asked me before if any participant required special care, but I didn’t tell her,” Helena said anxiously.“I didn’t ask you who revealed the news to her,” Travis replied.Mrs. Lilian learned about this matter from the moment she appointed Hailey as her secretary. Travis had no intention of assigning blame to anyone.And he continued, “I just wanted to tell you that in the future, if Hailey wants to know something about the competition, you can tell her everything. Luna is my friend, so I will take care of her specially. However, I want to avoid any rumors that suggest Luna and I are more than just friends.”Helena’s heart skipped a beat. Could it be that someone had told Hailey something they shouldn’t have? And did Travis also hear it? However, given his reluctance to probe into the source of the information, it’s l

    “I am a person who is... practical and realistic. Hailey laughed and said, “If someone is ugly, then they are ugly, and vice versa.”Travis replied, “The range of people you think are charming is too broad.” He pointed with a finger at the hero’s face, where the video had stopped. “This guy is ugly. It’s a waste of time and life to look at them.”Hailey looked at Travis resentfully. Then, her gaze drifted to the ambiguous hero on the tablet. Suddenly, she felt that the TV drama she was currently watching was boring.The living Travis stood in front of her. He could defeat all the heroes with his looks and behavior. Indeed, his romance and sweetness paled compared to those of the drama heroes.At first, she didn’t find it difficult to eat or sleep without watching TV dramas. Sometimes, she found herself at a loss for what to do when she was with Travis. As a result, she would either play, read a book, or watch a TV drama as entertainment, just as she was doing now.She closed the video

    If it were any other matter, Hailey would certainly accept it happily. She could learn many things from a project as it developed from scratch. Regrettably, the project required cooperation with Christian. She couldn’t meet Christian too often.“Let’s forget about it.” She pretended to consider it briefly before saying, “I don’t want to get involved with my friend at work.”Her response was in line with her attitude of always avoiding trouble. Therefore, Travis didn’t dwell on it too much.Hailey was reluctant, so he didn’t want to force her. Next time, he wouldn’t force Hailey to do something she didn’t want to. If Hailey didn’t want to supervise Christian’s new project, he would forget it.“By the way, Hailey. Do you know about Christian’s family background?” Matthew was curious and wanted to know if Hailey knew about Jodie.Hailey still had a blank look. “I don’t. I’ve never asked about that. I know his family established a company, and their family status is quite good. Regarding

    “Yes,” Matthew said. “What did you talk about?”When Hailey heard Matthew’s question, she immediately perked up. Her eyes were still on her phone, but her attention was now fully on the conversation between Travis and Matthew.Travis described the conversation he had with Christian that day. In the end, he said, “I plan to accept his proposal and cooperate with the Ford family. Do you have any opinions?”Travis still hadn’t mentioned Jodie, Christian’s sister, to Hailey. Currently, Hailey held a grudge against Matthew. If Hailey learned that a celebrity was interested in Matthew, she might resort to the same tactic Matthew had used against them the previous day to exact revenge. The situation might lead to significant issues.Travis didn’t mention that. Certainly, Matthew also didn’t mention Jodie. Christian...Matthew said, “I have no opinions.” It is not possible to discuss those two distinct incidents simultaneously. We should distinguish between business and personal matters.Trav
