Hailey stared at him, her eyes wide open. She blinked twice, as if Travis had asked an unexpected question.

“If you hadn’t brought it up, I wouldn’t even know I had that much money,” she said. After a moment, Hailey asked suspiciously, “But that’s his money. What does it have to do with me?”

Travis was stunned. “Don’t forget that you’re his legal heir.”

Hailey was surprised. She had never considered this option before. “Now that you’ve brought it up, I hadn’t given it much thought before.”

She seemed innocent and clearly wasn’t lying. There was no need to lie, anyway. Travis remained silent.

Hailey scratched her head. Since Ethan’s death, there was only one thing on her mind: when could she leave the Blake family? If she wanted to leave the Blake family with no trouble, she thought it was better not to get too involved with them. The less she benefited from the Blakes, the better. After all, she couldn’t return the money her father took from the Blake family. She could only rely on he

    Travis clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles cracked. Wilson would certainly assault Travis if he were facing him at this moment.“I’ll instruct them to inquire and gather information,” Sonny swiftly replied.Sonny felt guilty toward Hailey. If she had informed Travis about this earlier, she wouldn’t have run into such trouble tonight. Fortunately, nothing too serious happened. Otherwise, her guilt would have lasted a lifetime.Sonny quickly made a call and asked his men to investigate how Wilson was aware of Hailey’s movements.“We cannot dismiss him with such ease.” This time, Travis didn’t hide his intentions from Hailey.Sonny understood Travis. This time, he wouldn’t make any more mistakes.“Keep asking about Louis,” Travis said coldly. “He switched rooms with Wilson. Something like that doesn’t warrant an act such as jumping off a building.”Sonny replied, “I was going to report this. We splashed cold water on Wilson and forced him to sober up, and then we interrogated

    At that moment, William returned with the ointment, instantly disrupting the ambiguous atmosphere of the room. Travis was disturbed but not angry. Tonight, they faced many challenges. They had to call an emergency meeting to discuss their next course of action and assign individuals to stop the news of Louis’s fall from spreading. At the very least, they needed to keep Louis’s identity a secret as Wilson had suggested. They had to prevent others from discovering the true identities of Wilson and Louis, who were involved in two separate accidents that night, until they investigated the supposed secret.Travis instructed William to apply the ointment first, preventing anyone else from entering. The first thing he had William do was to attend to Hailey’s bruises. “It might sting a bit,” William warned Hailey.“Please bear with me.” Hailey smiled and nodded, assuring him she was okay. Unfortunately, she wasn’t prepared for the “little pain” William had warned her about. It was only when h

    When Hailey woke up, she discovered that there was something strange about the feeling in her arms. Why did it feel like she was hugging someone? Was it Travis? That’s not right. Wasn’t he on a business trip? Why would she be holding onto Travis? Had he returned from the trip? Or was she dreaming?That’s not right either. She should be at the station. She woke up with a start and immediately jumped out of bed.The sudden movement woke up Travis, who hadn’t been asleep for long. “Are you awake?” he asked, squinting.Hailey felt relieved to see Travis’s face once her blurry vision cleared. Still, she was puzzled. “Why are you in my room?” She looked around and found it unfamiliar. “Oh... This isn’t your room, is it?”She suddenly shivered and looked down. She wasn’t wearing any clothes!Travis was still not fully awake. All he could hear were murmurs from Hailey. He reached out, pulled her back to bed, and placed his hand on her face while telling her with his eyes closed, “This is your

    The butler seemed to have been waiting for Hailey for a long time.Hailey blinked. She had a feeling that something big was about to happen and couldn’t shake the sense of foreboding rising within her.Hailey anxiously followed the butler and forced herself to ask as calmly as possible, “Butler, has something happened at home?”The butler responded with a smile, “Why do you ask that, young lady?”Hailey smiled. “I just returned from a business trip with my brother-in-law, and I originally thought the driver would take me home. I wasn’t prepared for the mansion to be my destination. I was concerned that something had gone wrong.”The butler chuckled. “Young lady, you’re overthinking. Everything is fine at home. I’m not sure why Master Travis brought you back to the mansion. He simply instructed me to wait for you in the parking lot and to

    Lilian replied disapprovingly, “No, all of this is necessary.” Now, many people know you are a wealthy wife. Could your lack of security lead to your abduction? If something happens to you, we won’t be able to explain it to your family back home.”Hailey was speechless. “What do you mean we won’t be able to explain it to my family? Are you even aware of who these people are?”“Perhaps you find it inconvenient?” Lilian asked.“No,” Hailey hardened her determination and forced the words from her stiff lips.Mary couldn’t contain a burst of laughter. Everyone turned to her, and even her husband Hank looked at her.Mary quickly pretended to be innocent and said, “Why is everyone looking at me? I was distracted a moment ago! I didn’t hear what you said. Did someone ask me something?”Lilian looked at Mary and

    Hailey remained silent in response.Travis hit the nail on the head when he asked, “Are you upset because Grandma assigned you a bodyguard and a driver?”Hailey bit her lip but stayed quiet.“You’ve always hated being followed. Why is that?” Travis narrowed his eyes. “You’re not planning to do anything wrong out there, are you?”“What kind of awful things can I do? What do I dare to do?” Hailey scoffed coldly. “I simply dislike the sensation of constant surveillance. It gives me the impression that someone is watching me. It’s not a pleasant feeling."Her expression was calm but filled with disdain. It wasn’t like there was someone she wanted to secretly meet. She was worried that seeing Christian might have caused misunderstandings, but now it didn’t matter because she had already figured out what to do next.At that moment, Hailey knew that her plan and the actual situation were practically thousands of kilometers apart.“Your words are very contradictory,” Travis said. You shouldn’

    The meaning of his words still implied it was surveillance, but somehow, when those words came out of his mouth, his reasons didn’t sound as superficial as he made them seem.Hailey seemed to have forgotten how to move her eyes as she continued to gaze at Travis, with her lips slightly parted. She shifted slightly, wanting to say something, but no words came out.Travis reached out and nuzzled his lips. The touch felt as satisfying as always.He cupped her chin and leaned down to give her a deep kiss.Hailey was shocked by his words, and her hands, which had been pushing his shoulder, had lost their strength. She failed to retaliate, allowing Travis to use her mouth as leverage.When Travis had satisfied his cravings, he lifted his head to look at Hailey, whose face was flushed from the slight lack of oxygen.“Don’t forget, you’re my woman. I dislike having flies around me. I feel compelled to swat them until they die.”His voice suddenly lowered and sounded dangerous, hinting at a wa

    After Matthew entered the room, he stood at the door and looked at Travis with a teasing smile. The way Matthew was looking at him perplexed Travis.Confused, Travis asked, “Did you really fall in love with a salesperson?”Matthew turned around and glanced back. Then, he took two steps to the side, revealing a stunned Hailey behind him.It was unexpected to see Travis in a state of perplexity. Initially, he was sitting on the sofa leisurely. Now, he seemed frozen in place.The two stared at each other, seeming to be in a dream. It was a revelation for Matthew. He chuckled secretly to himself.It was not advisable to leave the door open. They could be seen by others later. Matthew cleared his throat once and went to close the door. Both Travis and Hailey seemed to have regained their composure but felt uncomfortable.“Why are you with Matthew?” Travis didn’t understand why they were together.Hailey entered the room and sat on another sofa. After giving it some thought, Hailey said, “I

    “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
