“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 turned to look at Sonny, who was still trying to contain his laughter, and thought, “This guy also has 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 doe

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

Holding the contract documents in her hands, Hailey was going through a whirlwind of emotions at this moment. “Trust me,” Lilian said to her, “it may seem like such a horrible thing right now, but maybe someday you’ll be glad you held onto it. As I mentioned earlier, you are now part of this family, our own flesh and blood. We will now share all of its triumphs and defeats. I won’t use a piece of paper to bind you. I hope in all your endeavors, you will consider the best interests of the Harvey family.”Everyone present clearly heard the matriarch’s words, interpreting them in their own unique ways. Hailey stared at the infernal contract that had so abruptly found its way back to her. For a long moment, she stared blankly. Then she looked bewildered at the older adult woman she called “grandmother,” her heart in turmoil. She had thought of her grandmother as an outdated relic steeped in rigid tradition, but the older adults matriarch had been willing to try anything to help her grandd

At the top of Spark Tower, Travis Blake sneezed. Then he frowned. Was he getting a cold? No way; he hadn’t been sick in years. Many people depended on him for their livelihood, so he took decent care of his own health and enjoyed an excellent constitution. It had been a moment of distraction, but he soon found himself completely immersed in his work once again. He completely forgot about the moment until his mother called.“Travis Blake, your grandmother is planning a matchmaking party for you,” she whispered over the phone. “If there’s anyone you’re eyeing, I can invite them to the event.”This surprised Travis Blake, but he quickly regained his composure. “Why would grandma choose a time like this for such an adventure?” It hadn’t been that long since Calvin passed away. How could a matchmaking party happen so soon after?“I don’t pretend to know what she’s thinking,” Thalia chuckled. Maybe she’s getting anxious about the future and wants to see another baby as soon as possible. She
