When we got home, Willow dragged the whole family along to exercise with her.After finishing, Willow took Pamela and her grandparents upstairs.Only Julian, Ximena, and I remained in the living room.Ximena glanced upstairs and said, "I thought Pamela would need to help her, but who would've guessed she'd recover on her own?""Yes," I agreed, sighing. "Children recover much faster than I ever imagined."Ximena couldn't help but chuckle. "Exactly. Look at Pamela. When she lived with her dad, she'd come home acting like a quail—so timid and cautious. But after just a few days with me, she's slowly returning to how she used to be."It was evident that Ximena loved Pamela. "If I had known that switching to a less stressful job would make life easier for my daughter, I definitely would've left my old company a long time ago."As a mother myself, I understood Ximena's guilt. Patting her shoulder reassuringly, I uttered, "It's not too late to change now."Ximena nodded. "Yeah."Juli

This question left me confused. I asked back, puzzled, "Why would I mind?"Julian knew full well that if a woman genuinely liked a man, she would inevitably feel possessive of him. The fact that I didn't mind now meant that I didn't love him yet.Julian felt rather dejected but knew that some things could not be rushed. So, he smiled and said, "That's true."…After sending Ximena back to her home and confirming that her ex-husband and Pamela weren't nearby, Julian and I finally left feeling at ease.Once I returned home, Willow immediately flung herself into my arms upon seeing me. "Mommy!"I bent down to pick her up."Yes?" I asked.She put her little cheek on my shoulder and asked, "Do you remember the goal I set for you? Back then, I said that I would definitely be able to talk with people other than you and Daddy normally within a month! It hasn't even been a month, and I've already reached my goal!"Willow then raised her head and looked at me expectantly. "I did so well

I said unhurriedly, "Think about what a doll looks like, and then think about the person you want to talk to. If you were to custom-make a doll like them, what would it look like?"Willow thought about it seriously and asked, "Then what?"I smiled and replied, "Wouldn't you be able to talk to them normally once you have the image of their doll in your mind?""That's true!" Willow exclaimed in amazement. She clearly didn't think there would be such a good solution. "However…" she added, her eyes sparkling. She seemed like she was thinking of something mischievous."What is it?" I asked quickly.She chuckled happily and replied, "Doesn't that mean everyone in the world would become dolls in my eyes?"Seeing her expectant expression, I played along and said, "That's right, a world of dolls just for you."Willow grew even more excited....Julian sat in the living room, quietly awaiting Aralyn. She would chat with him for a while every day in the past."She's accompanying Willo

"When I used to go out drinking with you guys, she would always worry about my health and remind me to drink as little as possible—or better yet, not drink at all. When I got home, she would carefully take care of me and even cook me some soup."Those memories were sealed away in his mind.Now that he was recalling what Aralyn had done, he finally realized that he had let go of someone who genuinely cared about him. "And now, it's over. No one will ever care for me the way she did."As he spoke, he started wailing.Seeing how heartbroken Shayne was, Spencer couldn't help but feel a little sorry for him. He said softly, "The main issue was your attitude toward Luna and Aralyn. It was too easy for others to misunderstand. Since you like Aralyn, then why was your attitude toward her so awful?"Back when they were still married, Shayne's attitude was mostly dismissive whenever he mentioned her in front of them. He even gave them the impression that Aralyn was throwing herself at him

Zach could no longer hold his tears back. They dripped down his face as he replied, "I do. I miss you so much right now. Mommy, when will you come back? It's okay if you hate Dad. Just take me with you."I'll bring along all the money and shop rentals you saved for me. With the rent and savings, it'll be enough for the two of us to live out the rest of our lives together."His tears were especially visible on his blanket. Zach knew that Aralyn no longer wanted him anymore, so no matter how hard he cried, she wouldn't comfort him anymore.He miserably wiped his tears away and continued through their chat history. He suddenly realized that before his parents had gotten divorced, it was always Aralyn who texted him first, and he barely replied to a single text.Zach couldn't put his feelings into words at that moment. His chest felt tight, and he wanted to cry.During that time, he remembered his dad would bring him to meet Luna every day. He would always praise Luna in front of hi

Eventually, we sat down in a dessert shop. The two men each ordered a small cake and tea for themselves.The driver used his fork to pick up a piece of the mille-feuille and placed it into his mouth. Once he swallowed, he mustered up the courage to speak. "Don't you think your attitude toward Zach is excessively cruel? He's only five this year. He's just a clueless little kid. Do you know that he cries silently every day at the school gate when he sees you picking up Willow? "He loves you so much. How can you bear to ignore him just because you divorced his father?"He didn't understand my decision. In his mind, a mother was supposed to love her child unconditionally.I was much calmer than he was in his agitated state. "Have both of you ever considered what he did to me before deciding to ask me this question?"The driver shook his head. "I don't know what he did, but how bad could a child's actions possibly be?"I used to think the same. That was why I always unconditionally

Only then was Alice satisfied. She looped her hand through mine and asked, "What's there to feel sorry about?"As she spoke, she looked around. Once she was sure that no one was around, she quickly pulled me into the office. She then closed the door and said, "Did you know that I've successfully infiltrated the gaming department? Whether it's the latest happenings or old gossip—I know it all very clearly!"However, after she knew everything, she didn't feel good keeping it bottled up inside her. After much consideration, she decided to skip work and come over to tell me.I sat on the couch and put my purse on the table beside me. "You're that good, huh?"Alice sat down next to me, lifting her chin proudly. "Of course!"I couldn't help but smile upon seeing her proud expression. Young ladies nowadays were full of life.She wasted no time and immediately began sharing the gossip she had overheard.I was stunned as I listened.Once she was done talking about her coworkers, she sud

Upon thinking that, I turned to glance at Julian.Mark told me two days ago that the company planned to spend money to drive engagement. Had they already started?I thought about it earnestly.A few days ago, when each platform only gained a few hundred followers a day, we were already selling five thousand dolls across all platforms combined. Now, the amount of followers I gained per day was over ten times higher than it used to be. Did that mean the number of dolls sold would also skyrocket? What about my revenue? I silently calculated the numbers in my head. Five thousand dolls were over 50 thousand dollars. Ten thousand dolls would be over 100 thousand dollars.I slowly sat up straight. So, earning money after my comic became popular was easier than I thought.Someone knocked on the door. "Come in," Julian said coldly.Avery opened the door slightly. The moment she saw Julian, she thought of her countless interactions with him. In the end, she dared not enter his office

Avery didn't know how to answer Luna's question. After some thought, she replied, "So, what do you plan to do?""I'll have to figure it out myself," answered Luna as she furrowed her brows. "Anyway, Shayne's personality is easy to manipulate. Even if he's the one who mentioned breaking up with me, it shouldn't be a problem as long as I drag it out for a while.She had a long-term plan in mind. "Also, since you work at Hughes Group, there's a good chance you'll come into contact with men who have both status and wealth. Remember to keep an eye out for them, then send me their details. I'll carefully choose a suitable man for me. I'll go after them once I figure out their preferences."Luna wasn't about to foolishly be with Shayne and beg him to love her again. The person he loved was Aralyn. The harder she worked for his love, the more he hated her. Once Shayne decided to get rid of her, she wouldn't have any money to spend. As such, it was better to use this time to pursue anoth

"It's because I want to help you convince Aralyn," Luna said, painting herself in a good light. "I want to chat with her and see if she's willing to reconcile with you."Shayne didn't deny her. "Alright, I'll arrange a meeting with Julian."Luna felt even more disdain. He actually agreed. How heartless.Fortunately, she had never cared about Shayne as a person; she was only interested in his money. She had also gotten what she wanted."I'll wait for the good news," she replied."Alright."…Shayne contacted Julian's secretary but was informed that Julian had been extremely busy lately. He wouldn't have time to meet him.Listening to Mark's polite tone, Shayne responded calmly, "That's fine. Just schedule it for later. I'm not in a hurry."Mark asked, "Would you like me to contact you when Mr. Hughes becomes available?""Yes."Mark hung up the phone without hesitation upon receiving Shayne's response.Shayne hesitated for some time before he relayed to Luna that Julian didn'
