All Chapters of A Heart Reclaimed: The Love I Deserve: Chapter 331 - Chapter 340

"If we're purely comparing material aspects, Julian treats me better. And he respects me more. He has no so-called 'first love' that he's hung up on, and he won't drag me into messy emotional entanglements.""What if he's like me and has a first love too? Maybe the person he loves just hasn't returned to the country yet," Shayne retorted. That had nothing to do with me.But I couldn't say that out loud, so I was struggling to come up with a response."Can you guarantee that when the person he truly loves comes back, he'll handle things better than I did?""Well, here's the question." Julian sat down beside me." Mr. Pearce, I'd also like to take this opportunity to ask you—who exactly is this person I supposedly truly love?"I was glad that he followed me. Otherwise, if Shayne kept spewing nonsense unchecked, his pursuit of me would undoubtedly become even more difficult.Shayne was stunned by the question.Julian's voice turned icy. "I can understand the pain of losing someone

Seeing the curiosity and excitement on my face, Julian couldn't help but smile slightly. "You can check your phone and look at your account balance."I did as Julian said.My balance had increased by over 200 thousand."It was originally over 300 thousand, but we needed to deduct the taxes, so the amount credited to your account is just over 200 thousand. As for social insurance and housing fund contributions, the company handles those for you, do you don't need to worry about it."Finding it hard to believe, I looked at him and exclaimed, "That's a lot! This is the first time I've earned so much money through my own ability. I didn't think it'd feel this good to have my own money."I don't have to worry about others coming up with all sorts of reasons to take it away. And I don't need to justify every penny I spend. If I want to save it, I save it. If I want to spend it, I spend it. This is my freedom."I even felt a bit regretful. Had I taken this step earlier, it would've been

"I know you love me." Shayne didn't quite understand why he could feel Luna's love for him easily. But when it came to Aralyn's love and kindness, he only realized it after losing her.It turned out that the ease he had taken for granted was entirely due to Aralyn's silent and selfless support.A trace of sadness flickered in Shayne's eyes. "A few days ago, I wanted so badly to reconcile with Aralyn. So, when you offered to help, I impulsively agreed. "But today, I suddenly think it's not right. If I have to rely on another woman to pursue my ex-wife, wouldn't that make me seem completely useless?"Pretending to not like what she was hearing, Luna said, "I won't allow you to talk about yourself like that!""Alright. I won't," Shayne replied with a smile. Only then was Luna satisfied. "That's better. Since you've made up your mind, I'll stay at home, take care of myself, and focus on the baby."Of course, she was just saying that.There was no way she'd truly listen to Shayn

That would total over six million.At my current earning rate, it would only take a year or two to save up that amount. But instead of saving money, paying for health insurance would be more cost-effective. If I paid for 20 to 30 years, there were no further payments after that.And medical expenses would be reimbursed significantly.I smiled as I thought of this.It seemed I needed to find a time to go back and discuss the health insurance issue with Mom.Previously, because Mom didn't agree with my divorce, I dared not go back.But the divorce had been finalized, and I had already moved on from the shadows of it. Whether or not Mom scolded me, I should still meet her.She raised me, after all. I couldn't possibly ignore her for the rest of my life.After resolving Mom's pension and healthcare issues, I also needed to consider my own retirement.If I planned for 50 years for myself as well, I would need to save over ten million.The more I thought about it, the more excited

"Is it simply because he sees potential in my comic, or is he trying to use the development rights as an excuse to get closer to me? Or maybe he just doesn't want too many people to know about what happened between us."Either way, I still think I should keep my distance from him, so I'd prefer not to sell the comic rights to him.""If you don't sell it to him, and no one else buys it, would you be disappointed?"I shook my head. "No.""Now I can offer you another option.""What is it?" I asked quickly."Let Hughes Group develop your comic rights. The company will give you a certain percentage of the share."Without thinking, I responded, "Deal."Julian's expression became unusually serious. "If the adaptation doesn't do well, the money you make could be less than what you would get from selling the rights."He was worried I might regret it.But I had already decided. "I'm willing to take that risk."Julian praised me sincerely, "That's what I admire about you, Lyn. You're a
