"And then?" Spencer asked."I asked her if she thought I loved her," Shayne said, his voice filled with confusion. He truly believed Aralyn was the one he loved. Yet, everyone around him, including Aralyn, believed he loved Luna.Spencer, with no patience for Aralyn, said irritably, "She probably said you loved her."He had always disliked Aralyn and instinctively assumed she would say or do something to make him dislike her more."No, she said I loved Luna," Shayne uttered, his eyes unusually vacant.What? Spencer couldn't believe his ears.Shayne asked, "Does that mean I was a terrible husband? In the six years I was with her, I never made her feel loved."The private room fell into an instant silence.Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say. To be honest, it did seem like the fault lay with Shayne.But as his friends, they naturally wanted to side with him.While everyone was struggling to think of a way to console Shayne, Spencer had already figured out how

As I recalled that moment, I couldn't help but feel speechless. "Did he forget we got divorced because he loved Luna?"Julian didn't say anything.Suddenly, a thought came to me. "Do you think it's possible…"Julian raised an eyebrow. "Oh?""That he came to me specifically to brag about how good his relationship with Luna is?"Other than that, I couldn't think of any reason why Shayne would want to see me."That's possible." "He's so childish." I rolled my eyes.When it was time to get off work, Alice rushed into the office and told me her friend had invited her out, so she was leaving first.Before I could respond, she was already out the door.Shaking my head, I packed up and followed Julian to pick up Willow.…Willow got out of school right on time.However, Pamela's parents were absent again.Julian called Pamela's parents and told them directly that Willow really liked Pamela, so we could also take Pamela with us whenever we fetched Willow.We thought they might r

Pamela stared at me and asked, "Really?""Of course."…The car stopped a short distance from the villa. Zach sat inside. Noah brought a tutor over, who was teaching Zach seriously. Zach glanced in the direction of the villa, then turned his attention back to the lesson.He didn't know why, but studying near Aralyn's home made him feel a deep sense of peace. It was as if Aralyn had returned to him.Zach made up his mind—he was going to learn whatever Willow learned. He could convince himself that these were courses Aralyn had chosen for him.As a good child, he would study hard and not let Aralyn down.This time, there was a lot to learn, but Zach was smart and mastered everything. The tutor was delighted and wanted to teach Zach more.Just then, someone tapped the car window. Zach turned his head and saw Shayne standing outside. He opened the door and hopped out. "You can drive the tutor home," Zach said to Noah."Alright.""Don't forget to come back for me," Zach remind

"Hello, are you Pamela's mom? She's my daughter's classmate. I brought her to my place when no one picked her up at school," I explained.Ximena Sawyer quickly asked, "Where are you? I'll go pick her up."Hearing how concerned she sounded, I said, "No need. Just tell me your address, and we'll bring her to you.""Alright."…We dropped Pamela off at Ximena's doorstep.Seeing her mom, Pamela was thrilled and bounced over to Ximena. "Mom, I talked to them, and we agreed I'll go play at their house again tomorrow!"Ximena looked at me, surprised."Tomorrow's Saturday. We won't be working, so we can take care of her."Relieved that it wasn't an inconvenience, Ximena exhaled. "I'll drop her off at your place tomorrow.""You're busy with work. We can come pick her up instead."After a pause, Ximena said, "Thank you."As we left Ximena's house, I glanced at Julian. Ever since he saw Ximena, he'd been acting a little off."Do you know her?" I asked."She's someone our company has

This way, when I drew Willow, I'd be able to capture her cuteness exactly as it was. …Julian took out his phone and switched to camera mode. Aiming at Aralyn and Willow, he snapped a picture.Maybe because Aralyn was gentle, but in the photo, she looked calm and beautiful. On the other hand, Willow looked cute.Julian stared at the photo for a long time before setting it as his phone's wallpaper.…"Do you want to take a picture of Willow?" I noticed Julian was taking pictures, so I leaned back to make room for him. "Go ahead."Julian didn't want me to know who he was taking pictures of, so he aimed the camera at Willow and took several more pictures.…Noah came back, and Zach left in the car.On the dark road, only Shayne was left. He stared at the brightly lit living room, feeling a complicated mix of emotions.Everyone was saying he didn't love Aralyn. But when he was near her, he felt at ease. What could this possibly mean?…Zach sat in the car, looking at the sh

Chapter 216

We planned to install a walkie-talkie inside the dolls so Willow could talk to her grandparents through it.Perhaps it wouldn't take long before Willow could speak to her grandparents directly.A smile spread across my face. I felt a sense of gratification watching the little girl I genuinely cared for. Willow finished speaking and waved at me confidently. "Mommy, I'm going to bed now."I stood up as well."Since Grandpa and Grandma are with me tonight, you can take a break," she added.I watched as Willow hugged the two dolls and struggled to carry them upstairs.The dolls were bigger than her, so carrying both at once proved a challenge for her, but she didn't ask anyone for help.She was such an independent child. My affection for her grew unknowingly.Thinking about how I'd be accompanying Willow and her friend tomorrow, I looked at Julian and said, "I might need to work overtime tonight."Julian nodded. "Go ahead.""Okay." I brought my laptop to the living room and sta

Only then would Shayne be willing to continue spending money on her.Luna thought for a while, then pretended to be considerate. "But it's too far from your company. I can't bear to see you run back and forth every day. You'd be exhausted."Luna hesitated before adding, "How about… You come over on Friday night and leave on Sunday?"This way, she would have a few days every week free and unrestrained, without needing to please anyone.At the same time, she could keep Shayne with her. For her, it was a deal with no risk of loss."Alright," Shayne accepted her proposal. "I'm tired. I'll go rest first."He thought that after saying these words, he would feel a sense of relief. But on the contrary, he felt a suffocating despair.Shayne staggered toward the bedroom.Luna watched him until he entered the bedroom, then slowly sat down on the couch with a smile.…Zach lay alone in the pitch-black bedroom. It was also eerily quiet, and he suddenly missed Aralyn. He missed when Aral

Willow nodded heavily. If Aralyn suddenly said she was leaving and handed her to someone else, she would cry her eyes out.But Pamela was completely unaffected, and Willow admired her for that.Pamela puffed out her chest confidently. "I think so too."Then, she started showing off how much her mother loved her. For example, last night, after she went back home, Ximena had been hugging and kissing her non-stop.Pamela sighed. "Mom says she has to work hard to make money, buy me a house, and save up a few million for me. That way, even if I can't find a good job after graduation, life will still be easier. But…"Pamela lowered her voice. "I just hope Mom doesn't put so much pressure on herself. I'll be sad if she exhausts herself."Willow also became sad.Watching them from the side, I rested my chin in my hand and paid attention to their interaction. I found kids' conversations pure, direct, and interesting.Neither Willow nor Pamela had breakfast yet, so Julian decided to take

Julian sat down next to me."I think there are two things we need to confirm now," I said."Huh?""Firstly, Willow has improved. If she wants to say something to her grandparents, she'll talk to the dolls. I think it's time for us to buy the walkie-talkies. Secondly, I want to know when the plush doll will be ready."Julian wasn't sure, so he stood up and said, "I'll contact Mark."…Julian took the elevator to the fourth floor, his gaze briefly sweeping over the electronics before dialing Mark's number.Mark answered, "Mr. Hughes?"Julian got straight to the point. "Is the doll ready?""If everything goes smoothly, it should arrive at the company by Monday," Mark replied calmly.Having received a definite answer, Julian was about to hang up when Mark added, "We've also reached out to Ximena as per your instructions."Julian understood. Mark bringing this up meant there had been some significant progress. "And?"Mark hesitated for a long time before saying, "She… actually g

"Okay!" Willow exclaimed cheerfully.…Since there was no school on Saturday, Zach didn't know where Aralyn was. To be closer to her, he specifically instructed Noah to follow her.Just then, his phone rang, and he answered it. "Hello?""They're at an indoor amusement park," Noah reported.Upon hearing this, Zach became excited. "Then hurry up and come pick me up at my grandma's!"Amusement parks were places everyone could go—he was no exception.Just thinking about being in the same space as Aralyn soon made Zach feel euphoric.To leave a good impression on Aralyn, he opened the wardrobe and selected a small suit to wear. He then looked at himself in the mirror before nodding in satisfaction.After that, he went downstairs, where Noah was already waiting at the door.He informed his grandmother that he was going out. After confirming that she had heard him, he went to the car.When they arrived at the amusement park, Zach spotted Aralyn but deliberately pretended not to see
