"Julian, give the phone to Aralyn!" Shayne's anger was nearly impossible to conceal in his voice.Julian didn't do as he said, "She's right next to me. If you have something to say, just say it.""Aralyn, if you really have been physically intimate with him, then there's no going back between us!" Shayne shouted hastily."Is that so?" I said, lifting my head and kissing Julian.Julian looked at me in surprise.Smiling playfully, I said, "That's a good thing to me."Shayne felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over him, and he found it hard to breathe."Don't be impulsive! Aralyn, you're an adult. Just consider it my plea. Don't accept a man so casually."Julian raised an eyebrow. "Mr. Pearce, don't ruin my good time."With that, he hung up.I lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling. "He's really strange."He didn't love me, but he acted as if he truly cared about me.Julian stood up, maintaining distance from me. "He's the type who doesn't appreciate something wh

Pamela didn't want to get involved in this situation. After all, she was just a child. Even if she had the intention, she didn't have the ability to do anything about Andrew."Leave these matters to the adults," said Ximena.I stepped forward to help Ximena untie the ropes, then took out my phone to call the police. Meanwhile, Ximena called the property management office with a cold expression.After finishing beating Andrew up, Julian opened the bedroom door and dragged the limp Andrew out, tossing him onto the living room floor.Andrew remained defiant. "She's my ex-wife. Coming to see her is my right. Who are you to interfere?"The term "ex-wife" reminded Julian of Shayne, and he instinctively retorted, "Oh, so you're aware that she's your ex-wife and not your current wife. That means you have no right to come to her home or involve yourself in her life."Andrew glared at Julian warily. "Why are you so concerned about her? Are you secretly in love with her?""She's an emplo

"In the six years we were together, she poured her heart and soul into me. It hasn't even been long, and she's already holding and kissing another man!"The more Shayne spoke, the more overwhelmed he felt. His mind was filled with one single thought—it shouldn't be this way.Shayne knew it was his fault, but he habitually shifted all the blame onto Aralyn. Originally, he thought doing so would make him feel better, but it only made him feel more suffocated.His friends watched him cry uncontrollably. They wanted to tell him that the reason Aralyn gave up on him so quickly was because he treated her too poorly during the six years they were together.Aralyn had already given up on him a long time ago.She only held onto their relationship out of sentimentality and reluctance to abandon the marriage, thinking she could salvage it.Shayne was the one who insisted on getting close to Luna and had this ambiguous relationship with her that eventually shattered Aralyn's hope.It made h

"Yes, why?" I wasn't sure why she was asking, but I instinctively thought she might need money. "Oh, phew." Willow sighed in relief."Pamela said when her parents divorced, her mom left with nothing, and she didn't ask for anything. Her mom didn't even have a penny, and life was hard."Willow stared at me seriously. "Even though Daddy is a good person now, it doesn't mean he won't change in the future. If you and Daddy get divorced someday, you can't be foolish and leave without asking for anything, okay?"Her serious expression was so cute that I couldn't help but pinch her cheeks gently. "Then what should I do?"Willow confidently said, "Start saving some money now, and when the time comes, take some from him. Just don't live a miserable life."Seeing how much she cared for me, I was moved. "But your daddy and I aren't married yet."Not understanding such a complicated situation, Willow blinked. "But I call you Mommy and Daddy, so aren't we a family?"She tilted her head sli

Furious that Zach had refused her, Charlotte raised her hand, preparing to hit him. "Why are you so thoughtless? I'm doing this for you!"The nearby teacher rushed over and pulled Zach away. "Why are you hitting a child?"Zach lay on the teacher's shoulder, looking at Charlotte. "Don't use me as an excuse. You're doing all this for yourself!"Charlotte tried to follow, but the teacher rushed into the kindergarten and closed the door.Zach thanked the teacher, saying that if it weren't for the teacher's timely intervention, he would have had to endure a beating today.The teacher smiled and said, "You are my student; it's my duty to protect you."…We arrived at the kindergarten, and Willow got out before leaning into Julian's ear. "You can do it, Daddy," she whispered.Julian answered seriously, "Don't worry. I will."Willow walked away, satisfied.Julian and I followed behind her.Julian took my hand as if it were natural to him. I raised an eyebrow at Julian, but I didn't
