2024-09-17 10:00:08Christian had an elegant smile, as beautiful as the weather outside. However, Hailey found it too bright for her eyes. She lowered her gaze and smiled softly. “No, we can only be friends.”
Her response did not surprise Christian, and he didn’t appear defeated in the least. Instead, he asked patiently, “Is it because the Halliwell family won’t let you go?”
Hailey’s smile instantly disappeared. Her eyes widened. “You...”
Christian looked her directly in the eyes and apologized. “I’m sorry. My friend from the hospital told me that someone from that family helped change your uncle’s room to VIP. That’s why I looked into your relationship with the Halliwell family, and it was quite shocking to know they are so conservative. It’s the 21st century, for God’s sake, but they still had someone

Travis Blake brushed off the dust from his finger, visibly annoyed. Out of the corner of her eye, Hailey noticed something slipping from Travis Blake’s hands and disappearing into the wind. Instantly, she realized she had overreacted and tried to think of ways to remedy this mistake. She smiled awkwardly.“Oh right. I wanted to ask you something. What should I wear to work?”In reality, she knew exactly what she should wear. Regrettably, Travis Blake appeared to dislike all her old clothes. Travis Blake was still somewhat upset. He looked at Hailey with disdain. “Don’t wear the clothes you’re wearing now.”“Has this woman not thrown away all her old clothes? Her sense of fashion needs more improvement.” Hailey thought, “I’m only wearing my old clothes because I had to see Annie. I wasn’t expecting you today either. Plu

Later, Hailey asked Travis Blake to tell her who paid the hospital bills for this month. As a result, Travis Blake instructed William to send her pictures of the bills that Denver had signed every month. Upon seeing the photos, Hailey felt a sense of relief. She called her mother. After finishing that, she studied her reflection in the mirror. She looks natural and elegant. She was excited to see the stylist, curious about how he would style her. They had agreed to meet at a cafe in Cityplaza, known for selling luxury products.The stylist was Spencer Watkins, a flamboyant man who liked to raise his pinky while talking. “Mrs. Stewart, do you remember my voice?” Spencer casually inquired after Sonny had introduced him to Hailey.Hailey stared at Spencer, slightly confused. Then she remembered that someone had called her some time ago, saying Sonny recommended them.“Oh, now I remember. You called

“Are you used to living outdoors?” Lilian asked, cradling Hailey’s hand.“More or less.”Hailey then informed the old woman of everything she had done. It all came out naturally. Lilian didn’t even need to ask.Lilian asked another question. “How is your uncle doing?”He’s been quite stable lately. He seemed lively the last time I visited.“That’s good,” Lilian said. “You’ll be starting work on Monday. Work hard and don’t embarrass the Blakes, okay?”“I will,” Hailey obediently replied.“Good, good.” The old woman turned to take out a small box from her drawer and handed it to Hailey. “This is for you, to congratulate you on your new job.”Hailey froze, not daring to accept it. She had received enough before.Despite never having

Maria fell silent. She knew her jealousy had crossed the line. Hailey’s car was the exact model she wanted, but her husband refused to let her get it. Secretly, she slapped herself and thought, “Ugh, why did I have to get jealous? It’s just a car, no big deal! If I cannot travel abroad next month, wouldn’t that result in me losing face in the eyes of my closest friends? She paced back and forth in her room.”“If I really can’t go, I’ll pretend to be sick. I even agreed to go shopping with my girls! We said we would buy watches, jewelry, bags, clothes, and all that jazz! If they find out my husband is punishing me and my spending is cut short, how can I maintain my reputation as a leader?”Mary regretted everything and cursed Hailey over and over. “Why did she have to gain that model? And it’s in the same color I wanted! Lilian said little to Hailey about the car. However

Scarlet rarely asked her son about such small matters. She just thought she’d bring it up since they ran into each other today.Travis Blake replied, “It’s nothing, really. I didn’t hit her either.” Even though he wanted to do it out of anger twice, he controlled his temper. His opinion of Hailey was strictly his own business. He didn’t need to explain it to anyone. Since he said little, Scarlet didn’t ask further.She simply added, “Don’t be too harsh on her when she works at your company. No matter how you see it, she’s just a pitiful soul. Just take it as giving yourself positive karma by being kinder to her.”Travis Blake pondered, “It’s okay for mom to think that way. If someone in the family mistreats Hailey, it also affects me.”After that, they both left in separate cars. Travis Blake had other things to attend to, an

Delilah looked at Travis Blake’s car in shock. To think that the boss would arrive so early today! Honestly, I couldn’t believe. Another surprise came when she saw the car slowing down before fully entering her parking spot. At that moment, Guillermo and Sonny got out of the car. William quickly approached Hailey’s car, while Sonny turned around to take his place in the driver’s seat and stopped the car completely. Delilah was speechless. William was being too reckless now, surely. Did William dart out of a moving vehicle in such a manner merely to glimpse Hailey?She frowned despite herself. She had heard some gossip about those two, but when she considered how Hailey had come to this company in person, pushing aside William and asserting herself to Mr. Blake. This suggested to her that even if Hailey and William were an item, their relationship was already falling apart. Hailey believed she had better p

It would be some time before the official office hours began. Hailey and Delilah were now in the office, along with a third person. Hailey glanced towards Travis Blake’s office, wondering if he had really arrived early today for her first day here. Delilah gave Hailey a sidelong glance. She felt lucky today because Travis Blake had arrived early, allowing her to enter the office with him as if they had come together. She chuckled quietly to herself and glanced at her rival’s desk.She wasn’t here yet. Oh, joy! Hailey’s sudden appearance had slightly tarnished this otherwise perfect morning, but things were going splendidly.Travis Blake liked to have a cup of coffee in the morning after arriving at work. Delilah had already prepared a pot of his favorite blend and brought it to him. The moment Travis Blake saw her, he said, “Leave that and bring Hailey here. I want to see both of you.”

Hailey’s hint of a smile became more clear when she received permission to speak.“Well, I just found out something today. Turns out you are surprisingly popular, huh?”She smiled enigmatically. “Be honest now. Is it because you felt someone was trying to get close to you, one cup of coffee at a time? Is that why you pushed these tasks on me?”Travis Blake looked at her expressionlessly. What was the purpose of her question? “Isn’t it common for a new secretary to start with such tasks?” he asked foolishly. Could it be that he was dissatisfied and preferred not to have to do it?“Now, how could that be?” Hailey said, smiling. “You know very well that I am eager to work. I won’t refuse such tasks.” It was a rare opportunity to tease him. His frozen face brought her immense delight.“If you permit me, sir.”

“Has my mother left?” Travis asked, even though he already knew the answer.Hailey pretended to smile and said, “What a great moment. Don’t tell me someone already informed you of what happened here?”Travis didn’t even blush despite Hailey’s statement and said, “I don’t know about your closed-door discussion.”Hailey looked at Layla, who approached her with a thin blanket and said, “I’ll tell you later.”“Okay. I’ll go now,” Travis said as he hung up the call.Layla covered Hailey, who was resting on the couch, with the blanket. The air conditioning temperature was low.Soon after, Hailey’s phone rang again. It was Travis once more. She didn’t hesitate and answered the call.“My mom is here,”

Thalia was very punctual.Hailey, Layla, Harry, and Laura stood up and greeted her by the driver’s seat.Originally, Layla wanted to greet her with all the servants standing in a row. However, Hailey said it was unnecessary. She did not organize something so extravagant when her in-laws came last time even though the two were looking for a fight. However, Hailey believed it was more important for her to greet herself. Everything else was not as necessary. Not to mention that with all the servants around, it would be challenging to keep a low profile. They might also be curious about how she would act when Thalia was present. That’s why she managed without them.If she overdid it and accidentally leaked into the main mansion, someone would say she was trying to butter up Thalia.After Thalia exited the car and saw Hailey greeting her at the entrance, she smiled and wrapped her arms tightly around Hailey

Travis addressed Eva normally. He called her “aunt.” But Eva was so used to being called Madame Winters that she felt uncomfortable with the new term.“Ms. Blake...” She only got out two words when Travis interrupted her.“You’re my elder, so call me Travis,” Travis whispered.If any of the Blake family members had been here, their eyes would surely pop out of their sockets. Travis rarely spoke with such respect, and only a few people had been worthy of such consideration. His grandmother was one of them.Eva’s lips trembled. In the end, she couldn’t say his name. “You... What did you want to tell me?”Either way, there was no way out. She had heard too many unfortunate news, so she thought she could probably bear one more.Travis’s response caught her off guard. “I would like to talk to you about Hailey,” he replied calmly.“Eh?” Eva was f

Fortunately, Travis didn’t press on about the friend or the photo. After hearing Hailey’s response, he lowered his head and returned to the financial news section.Hailey breathed a sigh of relief. After finishing her breakfast, she gathered her things and prepared for her visit to the hospital. Her uncle’s surgery was scheduled soon, so she wanted to keep him company as much as possible before that.Travis did not know that Hailey was going out. According to his usual schedule, he usually headed to the mansion before lunch. Judging by his bare face and comfortable clothes, she could guess his destination.However, she still asked, “Where are you going?”“To the hospital,” Hailey said.“Yesterday, I went to the mansion and informed Grandma in advance. I can go to the hospital directly now.”Immediately, Travis dropped everything and stood up. “I’m coming with you.”

When Travis appeared, Hailey continued to check both the study room and the bedroom. The sight of him shocked her greatly.“Didn’t you say you would come back tomorrow?” she asked, confused.Travis was supposed to return from his business trip tomorrow, but here he was.“I finished my work early, so I returned,” Travis replied. He didn’t tell her he had returned a day earlier because Hailey had instructed the servants to clean the villa and store his things to welcome his mother.Hailey said, “Oh, you came back just when I had someone helping me clean up the place. Can you go back to the Imperial Garden tonight? Don’t come tomorrow night either.”Frustrated, Travis questioned the obvious. “Why?”Hailey raised her eyebrows. “Don’t you know? Mrs. Thalia, your mother, will come to inspect my house in two days. I was worried she would check the upstairs, so I kept all

“About what you mentioned earlier... I think it’s a good idea.”The following day, Travis suddenly brought up this topic to Hailey.Hailey still felt quite dazed, with a bewildered expression. “What?”Travis was calm. “About getting Uncle Liam and Aunt Rowena to have another child.”Hailey instantly woke up. Travis’s words quickly dispelled her drowsiness. “What? Why suddenly?”Travis replied, “I just said; suddenly, I feel like it’s a good idea.”Hailey touched Travis’s forehead and then felt her own. “Do you have a fever or something?”Travis gently removed her hand and held it in his palm, with a serious expression. “I’m serious.”“Serious?

Hailey was taken aback as if Travis had said something truly horrible.“I don’t know.” She was silent for a while. Then she asked with a blank face, “Can’t you finish this contract before anyone finds out?”Travis tightened his grip on Hailey. Unable to control his strength correctly, he was about to crush her jaw.“Ah...!” Hailey cried out in pain and tried to pry his fingers off.But Travis had no intention of letting go. Hailey’s words were sharp and painful needles that pricked his heart.“So, was it all a misunderstanding? Did she not care for me at all?”At that moment, Travis had never doubted his sixth sense more.“So, what you’re saying is: if someone finds out about us tomorrow, you want to cut ties with me today?” he asked, his face grim. With each word, his heart hardened even more.Hailey thought, “I guess Travis isn’t d

Christian was a complete gentleman to Hailey. They were friends, but not the kind who had known each other for a long time and could make inappropriate jokes. Therefore, their behavior seemed normal to everyone—everyone except Travis.Travis’s expression had always been icy, so his attitude was nothing unusual to everyone. Even Helena couldn’t tell what he was thinking, let alone anyone else.After dinner, Christian drank some wine and became bolder. He boldly asked Hailey to go out with him over the weekend, saying he had plans with some friends to hike in the suburbs. If she was interested, they could go together.Hailey could feel everyone’s eyes burning holes in her. She smiled, “I’m not sure if I’m free this weekend. I’ll let you know when I’m sure.”Everything seemed normal and harmonious, at least until dinner ended, and Hailey got into the car. After she drove away and lost sight of the o

When Hailey went to sit down, she looked at Travis. His gaze was elsewhere, and he wasn’t looking at her.Christian, who had been paying attention, noticed who she was looking at. He assumed she was afraid of Travis and sighed with sadness.Since Hailey was being so cautious, he also had to be careful. He didn’t want to make things difficult for her. He knew Hailey was shunning him. If she felt the Blakes would misinterpret things if she got too close to him, she would keep her distance.When Christian arrived at the office building a moment ago, he noticed something. Hailey now had a driver and a bodyguard. The two people accompanying her were probably her driver and bodyguard. They even shamelessly followed her to the company! What the hell happened? Why didn’t he hear anything about this?He had to find the opportunity to ask her about this carefully. Thinking about it, he conclu
