Chapter 521

The driver shot a discrete look at Julian before looking away. He couldn't help but feel amused when he saw Julian's eyes had never once left Aralyn. "Alright."…When we arrived at the printing factory, the publisher company's staff were already waiting for us at the entrance. The second they saw us approaching, they didn't hesitate to take the initiative to lead us to a nearby warehouse.The building was filled with books. Most of them were already flipped open, making it convenient for me to sign them.I inhaled deeply, sat down at the desk, and began to sign my name.Once I was done, the person standing next to me promptly removed that book while another placed a new book before me.I looked at them in surprise.They returned my gaze with one of confusion. "Why aren't you signing?""This is just my first time receiving such treatment." They had handled all the miscellaneous things and all I had to do was sign the books.Frankly, I was feeling rather flattered.I added, "I

Chapter 522

Julian was afraid someone would overhear him. So, he explained in a low murmur, "I just wanted to keep your company, even if it's only for a few minutes."I never considered that Julian would be a clingy boyfriend. Still, I patted his arm gently and asked, "Have you had lunch?"Julian froze.I handed him my cutlery and urged, "You should eat too. Don't you starve yourself.""Okay."Julian had clearly forgotten that he hadn't eaten, so he only brought a set of cutlery. Thus, I took a couple of bites before passing them to him. That way, he could have some food to fill his belly too.Once we were finished with our meal, Julian packed the thermos away and gently began to massage my hand. "You've been signing away for the entire morning. Your hand must be sore."If this question was posed to me before my divorce… Or if the man across me were Shayne, then I'd definitely insist that I wasn't tired.That was because I knew that Shayne wouldn't care even if I claimed that I was tired.

My lips curled into a smile.It was true that no two individuals were the same.I didn't have to spend a dime when I was babysitting the child at Julian's place. I was even paid a high salary for my services.In fact, the monthly wage he paid me was far more than the two years of living expenses that Shayne had provided me.Yet, Julian still felt that I wasn't earning enough and insisted on helping me find a part-time job.Under such circumstances, even if I weren't in a romantic relationship with Julian and was merely his employee, I would still choose to live at Julian's home. There would be no hesitation on my part.I might have compromised and forced myself to endure back when I didn't know any better.My decision to do so was mainly fueled by the fear that I wouldn't be able to find anything better if I left Shayne.Now that I knew just what a good life felt like… Well, there was no way I would ever deign to return to that god-awful life ever again.…Julian only left wh

Chapter 524

Rowan had his pride and temper.Although Rowan loved her… Luna had a feeling that Rowan might not forgive her.Luna hung up the phone and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window. Her eyes landed on the trees beyond the window, but her mind was filled with nothing but Rowan.Frankly, out of all the men she had met… If there had been one who had truly fallen for her, then that man would definitely be Rowan.Therefore, she was certain that even if she went for another man, Rowan would still return to her side as long as she coaxed him with sweet nothings.That was why she was willing to spare some of her time to talk to Rowan.Luna sat on the chair nearby and gently massaged her temples.She couldn't understand why she did what she did. She had clearly decided to keep Rowan as her fallback option. So, what possessed her to impulsively say all those things to Rowan?Now, how was she going to explain things away in order for Rowan to forgive her?…Julian efficiently skimmed through

If that were the case, Julian just had to set up more nuisances for Luna. That way, Luna would be too busy with her own affairs to cause any trouble for Aralyn.…Julian was jerked out of his scheming when he heard someone knocking on the door. He schooled his face into an expressionless look before saying, "Enter."Alice pushed the office door open and skipped toward the cubicle. When she saw that Aralyn was absent, she asked with confusion, "Where's Aralyn?""She went to the printing factory to sign her books," Julian replied without any intention of hiding the truth.Alice huffed, somewhat dissatisfied. "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"Julian countered with a question of his own, asking, "Would you have believed me if I told you earlier?"Alice shook her head without a second thought. "Of course not."Julian questioned blandly, "Then, why should I bother?"Alice thought over his question and eventually conceded that he had a point. Nonetheless, she pouted at him to express

"This isn't my style," Julian said, slowing his speech and speaking in a calm, measured tone. "Since we're going to invest, there must be a more important part in their plan."Mark looked at Julian, bewildered, not understanding what he meant. He voiced his confusion. "What?"Julian replied with a faint smile. "What I mean is, we must ensure that we have absolute control over this project."Otherwise, if we hand over the money and they casually produce some garbage movie, claiming it was done based on our requirements, they'll just pocket our investment. And if the box office doesn't do well, wouldn't we take a massive hit?"Hearing this, Mark suddenly realized the significant risk involved. His face immediately turned pale. "I'm sorry, Mr. Hughes. I didn't consider all this initially.""It's fine," Julian said nonchalantly. "We can invest because we don't lack money. But the key is… We can't be taken advantage of.""So, if we invest, we are entitled to oversee the movie's conten

Chapter 527

Shayne rubbed his temples, speaking slowly, "Just get to the point."A sudden headache crept in.He couldn't explain why, but ever since his divorce and starting his relationship with Luna, all sorts of chaotic situations seemed to crop up.His mother, who used to avoid drama, now seemed to have an endless supply of complaints.Every few days, she would call to rant, saying this person wasn't good or that person was terrible, as if it never occurred to her that the problem might be her own behavior.Shayne forced himself to suppress his irritation.He found himself reminiscing about the days he spent with Aralyn.It was peaceful and easy.More importantly, he had only recently realized that he truly loved Aralyn.He couldn't even understand how he could have been so foolish at that time, allowing Luna, with her guise of being his first love, to blind him and cause him to abandon Aralyn.Charlotte, reassured by Shayne's response, finally spoke up. "You have no idea how outrage

It seemed like Charlotte had completely forgotten that she had just been caught red-handed by Shayne.Her anger glared even more. "Shayne, I'm your mother! How can a son stand by and watch his own mother be bullied without doing anything?"She was stunned by Shayne's cold-heartedness.Shayne's tone remained steady, with no trace of emotion. "This is all just a guess. So, I guessed it right, didn't I?"Charlotte was at a loss for words.He continued, "Mom, I'm really busy right now. Next time, don't bother me with trivial matters like this."Charlotte wanted to say more, but the call was already disconnected.Staring at the screen, she was seething with anger, but in the end, she had no idea how to release it.…A man hid in the corner, watching Aralyn sit alone in a room, signing some documents. He quietly pulled out his phone and called Luna. "Aralyn's alone!"Luna couldn't contain her excitement. She had been waiting for an opportunity to capture Aralyn and record videos th

Just a few days ago, her tone with him was unbearably harsh, as if she couldn't wait to cut ties completely.Luna hesitated before asking, "Did you go to Hughes Group today?"Rowan didn't answer directly but asked in return, "How did you know?""You don't need to worry about that," Luna replied, her heart sinking as she observed his attitude.He probably did go. Avery wasn't lying.Without thinking, she said, "I have my ways."Rowan didn't respond right away.Suddenly, he recalled how, after he told Julian about Luna's plan to release a video suggesting he and Aralyn were involved, Julian had instructed him to visit Hughes Group.Even though nothing had actually happened between him and Aralyn, it seemed…At Luna's words, Rowan immediately realized that Julian likely intended for him to distract Luna.However, Rowan also understood that Julian had plenty of ways to protect Aralyn.If Julian had chosen to involve him, it would have probably been because he also wanted to give

Julian chuckled lightly and said, "No need. Aralyn, having you running back and forth is too exhausting. It makes my heart ache."It was strange. Every time I heard him say such considerate words in a serious tone, I felt a warmth in my heart. "Alright, then we'll meet at the kindergarten entrance?"Julian agreed, "Okay."The driver drove me to the kindergarten entrance. I opened the car door, stepped aside, and waited for Willow to appear."Aralyn."Hearing someone call my name, I turned around. I saw Shayen walking toward me.The smile on my face disappeared instantly. My first instinct was to turn and retreat into the car.Shayne blocked my path. "I need to talk to you.""Sorry!" I coldly declined. "I don't want to listen."He didn't give me the chance to refuse. He started speaking right away. "I went to see a therapist a few days ago…"I glanced at him.He continued, "He asked me a lot of questions, and after reflecting on them one by one, I realized that after we got m
