She's Mine To Claim Chapter 18
Hailey wondered, “I won’t be able to hide the truth from Travis Blake, anyway. Eventually, he will find out. It’s better if I’m honest about it.”She stumbled over her words. It was the day after we had a fight in the study room. Grandma wanted to see me in the chapel, Aunt Mary was there too. She asked if I held a grudge against you, but I didn’t know how to answer her at that moment. So, I just said I wanted to get a job, and I fought with you on that matter.“Is that so?”Her explanation was too simple to raise suspicions. Travis Blake couldn’t believe that the conservative old lady would grant Hailey’s request for such a simple answer.Hailey herself was also very confused. She looked at Travis Blake with a blank expression. “I don’t know either. I was worried he wouldn’t believe me at first, but he just agreed.”Travis Blake narrowed his eyes. “Repeat what you told him that day.”Seeing how stern his gaze was, Hailey nervously swallowed. She doubted her ability to fulfill what sh

Travis Blake didn’t turn around, he simply turned his head slightly and asked, “Do you need anything else?”Hailey wanted to laugh. “Being this man’s woman is really no fun.”“Could you also bring my phone, bag, and clothes, please? And I would like some water, if you don’t mind.”She suppressed the sarcasm within her and tried her best to maintain a polite tone.Since she couldn’t move much, she knew that if she irritated this bossy man with her tone, she wouldn’t gain anything if he refused to help her get her things and some water.Travis Blake placed his hand on the knob. “Just throw your clothes, I’ll have someone send you new ones.”After saying this, he left Hailey in shock as he sat on the bed. “Throw my clothes? Then what would I wear tomorrow morning? And are you going to bring me some water or not?”It was fortunate for her that Travis Blake still had some kindness in him, as he actually brought her everything she asked for, except the clothes.However, after placing all he

“I have to stay out of this just because she’s my friend. If she’s applying for a job and the CEO interviews her personally, I shouldn’t be there to influence the CEO’s decision with our friendship," William said casually.After saying this, his chest tightened. This was only making things worse. Out of nowhere, he had become the person who seemed closest to the young lady.“If the CEO gets jealous for no apparent reason, I’ll be in trouble.”He looked at Sonny, who was still struggling to control his laughter, and thought, "This guy also needs to spin this."Sitting at the large carved wooden desk in the office, Travis Blake asked, “So, why are you here, really?”He wouldn’t believe she was here to drop off a resume.With no one else around, Hailey felt she could act naturally again. She stood in front of the desk and pulled out the credit card. “Oh, I’m returning this card to you.”Travis Blake looked at the card for two seconds. “Why?”“Isn’t this the legendary black card? It doesn’

William felt irritated, as the corner of his mouth twitched. “Do these people want to make the problem bigger? I really wish I could switch places with him and let him have some of this luck.”Hailey thought that this misunderstanding had gone too far. She was worried that this could make William look bad.She was currently a widow, so if anyone in the mansion heard these rumors, they might get strange ideas. More importantly, this could lead to additional unwelcome complications for William.“I’m not his girlfriend,” she said in a serious tone. “You’ve misunderstood, we’re just friends.”Everyone who heard this thought the woman was not facing the boss, but they did not know how relieved William was, despite how surprised he seemed.Being in a scandal with the young lady of the Harvey family, who was also his boss’s wife, was extremely terrifying. Hailey’s clarification made him extremely happy, as it eliminated the need for him to act as a shield.“That’s right, don’t say such nonse

Hailey responded, “They have admitted a relative of mine to the hospital because of their illness.”“I will visit them.”She then waved goodbye, showing she was leaving.“What hospital is it? I can take you there,” Christian offered casually. “I’m also heading home.”“Oh, it’s okay, I can just call a taxi!”Just then, Christian spoke up immediately. “Hey, you’re being too polite with me again. Aren’t we friend?”Hailey glanced at Christian and laughed. “He just invited me to lunch, but he thinks I don’t see him as a friend, silly.”Unable to refuse, Hailey told him the name of the hospital.Christian asked Hailey to wait on the roadside while he went to get his car.On the way to the parking lot, he made a call. “Professor Leslie, I’m sending a friend to your hospital because she needs to visit a relative. We’ll be there in an hour, so I’ll call you when we’re almost there. Help me find out which patient she’s visiting.”“Do I just need to find out who this patient is?” Leslie Stewart

“Oh, so that was it,” Hailey said with doubts. “But I didn’t expect him to thank me like that. Also, I forgot to charge my phone last night, so it probably ran out of battery.”“How could we accept this?” Finn noticed nothing unusual about her words and proceeded further.“At first, we knew nothing about this either, the doctor just said my room was changed. It wasn’t until then that we realized how beneficial the change had been. When we asked the doctor to change it back, he responded he had no say in the matter. And the regular rooms are completely full, someone else took immediately my previous bed when I changed rooms.”He sighed. “Please talk to him, we appreciate the offer, but a few days of such luxury are enough. Being in the hospital for so long wouldn’t benefit me if I owed him a big favor. Also, ask him to help us find a space in the regular rooms so I can change back.”Hailey thought, “It was probably Travis Blake’s orders. Is this one privilege that comes with being his

The three people in the house made no comments about Hailey’s clothes or the bag she was carrying.Travis Blake’s judgment had been impeccable. The clothes Hailey was wearing, which she had considered expensive, were nothing but ordinary everyday clothing as far as those three ladies were concerned. Even if someone like Hailey wore the clothes, they did not express any protest at the moment.Finally, the girl was wearing something decent for once. They thought to themselves, remembering those horrible clothes from before. It had been a shame for the Harvey household, as if they couldn’t even afford some simple clothes for their new daughter-in-law.After what seemed like an eternity, the older adult matriarch finally finished her prayers and opened her eyes. Her eyes lit up when she saw Hailey, and she was satisfied with what she saw. So, the girl had finally learned to dress a little better.“Well, why don’t you find a seat?” she asked. “Why are you standing there?”These words from

Rowena felt relieved to hear Maria’s outcry. She wasn’t the only one who disagreed with this turn of events. Thank God.Hailey couldn’t understand why her grandmother went to such lengths for her sake. She didn’t remember doing anything to earn that favor. She thought about it a lot, but her best guess was that the old matriarch sought peace in the house above all else. That had to be the reason for all of this.This notion slightly improved her opinion of the old woman.The old matriarch looked at Maria. This daughter-in-law of hers, always making a fuss over slight concerns.Under that piercing gaze, Maria hesitated to air her complaints after all, as much as it bothered her.Seeing how things were going, Hailey once again realized that the old matriarch was the true power within this house. She quietly reminded herself to never underestimate this woman she addressed as “grandmother.”Sitting prim and proper, Hailey awaited the old woman’s next words. This talk about the inheritance

“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
