A Heart Reclaimed: The Love I Deserve Chapter 610
Shayne had devoted himself wholeheartedly to Charlotte, and what did he get in return?Charlotte was willing to threaten him with suicide for Luna's sake, forcing him to compromise.Only now did Shayne realize how ridiculously wrong he had been.He stared at the ceiling for a long time before calling Luna.Seeing that her plan succeeded, Luna picked up Shayne's call with a pleased smile."You're really something. When you couldn't convince me, you went through Charlotte instead. Should I praise you for being clever?" asked Shayne emotionlessly."Of course, you should," Luna thought, albeit not saying it.She still put on a fragile and innocent front in front of Shayne. "I only want my child to have a happy life, one where they don't have to worry about being abandoned. Am I wrong for that?""If you're not wrong, then I'm the one at fault, right?" Shayne asked coldly.Luna was at a loss for words.Shayne suddenly thought of something and said, "Now that I think about it, if I

"Yeah. Shayne is angry. He said he won't give me a single cent for living expenses in the future."Charlotte didn't take it seriously. "It's fine. He might not care about an unborn child, but I'm still his mother. He won't ignore me. When he sends me money, I'll transfer it to you."Luna felt a bit uneasy. If things were really as optimistic as Charlotte said, that would be great. "But he said he won't give you money as well.""That's not possible." Charlotte remained unconcerned."Even if I forced him to do something he didn't want to, I'm still his mother. There's no way he'd cut me off over something so trivial.""He said it himself just now. Why don't you call him and ask?" Luna said, trying to test the waters."Sure. But he's still angry right now. I think even if I ask him, he'll give me the same answer he gave you. But I'll comfort him anyway. He's my son, after all."Charlotte hung up and dialed Shayne's number, but her hands were trembling.Shayne had never thrown a ta

As Charlotte heard the disconnect, Charlotte shouted in a shrill voice, "Shayne!"But Shayne didn't give her any response. She immediately called back, only to find that she had been blocked again.She tried calling from other people's numbers, but she soon realized that Shayne had blocked all of them.Charlotte sat on the couch blankly.No matter how hard she thought about it, she couldn't understand why Shayne would cut ties with her over such a trivial matter.…Joseph woke up at home. Thinking back on everything that had happened recently, he hesitated for a long time before finally opening his chat with Avery and sending her a message."Thank you for lending me money, letting me stay at your place, and cooking for me. But I found a pretty good job yesterday and made a lot of money, so I won't need to stay at your place anymore."He transferred the full five thousand that Avery had lent him back to her.Then, he remembered that he had stayed at Avery's place last night. Ev

"How are you feeling now? She doesn't love you anymore. Are you still stuck on her?"Joseph spoke slowly and deliberately "Of course not. I don't have any feelings for her anymore. I didn't love her that much to begin with, so of course, I pulled out in time. I have to say—that's some nasty method you used."Alice didn't deny it. He did the same to her, anyway.Joseph couldn't be bothered to argue about it anymore. "It's early in the morning. What do you need?""We're going to check out our company's location. Then we'll check the rent in the city center and compare it with the suburbs. Wherever we can afford, that's where we'll rent," Alice said, not wanting any unnecessary contact with Joseph.Joseph thought Alice made a lot of sense. "Alright.""Do you have a car?" Alice felt that for something this important, they had to use a family-owned vehicle.She didn't trust rental cars, as she was worried their project discussions might be overheard."I probably do. I'll ask my dad

The agent looked at Alice in surprise and said, "Of course, they're for sale, but they aren't cheap.""How much exactly?" Alice decided to go all in."Usually around 20 times the annual rent."Alice looked at Joseph. "So, as long as our company lasts 20 years, we'll break even."Joseph was also a bit tempted. He gestured for Alice to come over. "Let's discuss this.""Okay."Alice excused herself from the agent and stepped aside with Joseph."If we're buying, shouldn't we get a bigger place? Otherwise, if the company expands in the future, we'll run out of space for the employees. Then we'll have to rent another place. That doesn't seem cost-effective."Alice looked at Joseph in surprise. "That makes sense. Why don't we consult our elders first?"Joseph also felt that the elders might have more experience, so he called his father to ask about buying an office.Lucas said the values of the suburban property had little chance of increasing and might even decline in the future.

Joseph and Alice were just business partners for now. If they bought the property together and both names were on it, it would be hard to divide if they ever had a falling out.It was better to settle everything clearly from the start.The two asked the agent if this arrangement was possible, and the agent said it was.After they confirmed which half each of them would take, the agent led them through the property transfer process.Joseph looked at the brand-new property deed in his hands and still found it hard to believe. "I actually own my own place now.""Mm-hmm!" Alice was also excited, though she didn't show it. "Let's go meet Aralyn now."Joseph asked, "What for?""She's amazing!" Alice praised, unconsciously lifting her chin."Even though she hasn't started her own company, she has her own insights about business matters. Talking to her will give us a different perspective! And most importantly, I want to share this great news with Aralyn."Alice suddenly thought of

"I'm heavily pregnant right now. I need someone to take care of me. If I move in with you, can you afford to hire a nanny to take care of me? And Mason is currently attending the best kindergarten in the city. The tuition costs hundreds of thousands a year. Can you afford that?"She asked one question after another, leaving Rowan at a loss for words.Luna took a deep breath. "Even though Shayne is angry right now, I believe as long as I hold on, he'll calm down eventually. And then he'll continue to provide me with a good life.""So, you called me just to complain? You never actually thought about coming back to me?" Rowan asked.Luna was silent for a long time before replying, "Yes.""Alright."She had hurt Rowan repeatedly, and he had said over and over again that he would forgive her. But now, he finally realized that Luna never needed his forgiveness.In fact, Luna could live just fine without him."Maybe Shayne was just acting on impulse. You don't need to take it to heart
A Heart Reclaimed: The Love I Deserve Chapter 617
Shayne's love for Aralyn would fade gradually.Charlotte felt that if things reached that point, Shayne wouldn't hold a grudge against her over the vasectomy anymore.Instead, he would realize that everything she did was for his own good.The more Charlotte thought about it, the more convinced she became that her priority now was to break Julian and Aralyn up. She took a taxi to the entrance of Hughes Group, but when she saw the tightly shut gates, she froze.Seeing her standing there in a daze, someone nearby approached her. "Hughes Group is closed on weekends. If you need to see one of their employees, you can come back on Monday."Charlotte nodded numbly. "Okay, thank you."Even if they weren't at the company, that didn't matter. She could go to Julian's house and meet him there.After all, she had to settle this today!Otherwise, as long as Shayne kept blaming her, she wouldn't be able to feel at ease.…The car was moving down the road.Joseph sat in the passenger seat,

Spencer asked, "Just because of one little argument?""In your eyes, maybe it was just a little argument," Stephanie said calmly. "But for me, it was the last straw that broke the camel's back. In this relationship, I was the one who always gave more."No matter what Kelly did, the one who ended up hurt was always me. You only had to take her side and blame me to settle everything. So, to you, it was always just small stuff."She continued, "Nobody wants to spend their whole life being wronged like that. I don't either. So, after that day, I really thought it through…"How much love do I still have left for you? Is it enough to keep tolerating you and her? The answer was no. I even realized at that moment that I didn't love you anymore."Forget tolerating both of you. Even just dealing with one of you felt unbearable. Then, I thought, since it's gotten to this point… We might as well break up."When Stephanie said this, her eyes carried a relaxed smile. "I just haven't figured ou

Shannon shook her head. "That's why I really don't think much of Luna. If it weren't for our son liking her…"Patrick understood how Shannon felt. "Honestly, we did wrong by Luna before. Once she's willing to come back, we should make it up to her as much as we can."Shannon was unwilling, but seeing Patrick insist, she could only mumble, "Fine, we'll do what you say.""Okay."…Hannah noticed that over the past few days, Patrick and Shannon hadn't contacted her at all, and she immediately found it strange.In the past, the two elders were very close to her son, almost seeing him every day. What was going on now?After putting her son to sleep, Hannah took the initiative and called Shannon. "Mrs. Cunningham..."Shannon frowned and glanced at Patrick, speaking in a low voice, "It's a call from Hannah."Patrick's face darkened almost instantly, but he forced himself to hold it in. "Don't tell her we went to see Rowan, and don't let on that we know the truth. If she wants to fool

Rowan shook his head. "If it were really that simple, that would be nice."Patrick didn't understand why Rowan said that.Rowan continued, "Before Luna and I divorced, she had already guessed you were lying, so she made it very clear to Mason…"If I chose to come back and help you, she would divorce me. If I stayed with her, she would continue living the hard life with me."Patrick hadn't expected the truth to be like this. His face turned even uglier. Shannon was also in pain.Rowan tilted his head up, staring at the ceiling. "But in the end, I was too scared the company would fall apart, so I chose to go back. To completely cut ties with me, she went and started dating Shayne."At first, Luna still had hope for him. After all, they had truly loved each other for so long.But over time, through all the back-and-forth, she probably realized he was never going to change, so she finally gave up completely.Recently, the comics she created have been doing very well. Because of tha

Rowan said, "Come on, I'll take you to eat."Patrick followed behind Rowan and asked, "Have you thought about what to do with Mason in the future?"Rowan didn't take the question seriously. "Why would I?""He's your only child. If you don't acknowledge him, you'll end our family line."Rowan didn't know why, but looking at the streetlights and the thinning crowd around him, he felt unusually calm. "Isn't this exactly what you wanted?"When they reached the restaurant, he handed the menu to his mother. "See what you want to eat."Shannon picked a light vegetarian dish and said, "We just didn't expect Hannah to lie to us!"Rowan crossed his legs and repeated her words. "You didn't expect Hannah to lie to you?"Patrick ordered two meat dishes before saying, "Exactly. Who would've thought she would dare lie about something like that?"Rowan stared at his father. "So, just because you said it, even if you had doubts, you really thought I cheated on her with Luna…"Shouldn't you ha

Willow stared at me in shock for a long time before finally asking, "You can really do that?"I nodded. "Yeah. As long as you want to, you can keep in touch with her as much as you want."Willow jumped up excitedly. "That's awesome!"Just then, there was an urgent matter at the company that needed Julian's attention. After taking the call, he happened to overhear my conversation with Willow.He immediately got an idea. "During summer break, if you want to hang out with Pamela every day, she might not have that much free time."Willow's smile disappeared instantly. She asked, "Then, what should I do?"He guided her, "Do you think there's an excuse that could make both of you improve and leave her mom no reason to say no?"She followed his lead and quickly figured it out. "Studying?"He didn't give it away directly. "Oh?""Daddy, how about you hire a tutor for me during summer break? I can get a head start on school! Then, I'll ask Pamela to join me. Her mom will definitely agre

Alice raised her voice and asked, "You two already broke up, and he's still coming around asking you to apologize?"Stephanie shrugged. "What else could it be? You don't think I'd made all that up just now, do you?"Alice had never thought that, but Spencer's behavior still struck her as outrageous. "Do you need me to help you?""No, it's fine." Stephanie had already moved on, so she needed to handle it herself. "I can deal with it."With that, she walked out of the hotel.Spencer saw her come out and quickly stepped in front of her. "Can we talk?"He expected Stephanie would agree, but she gave him a glance and asked, "What do we have to talk about?""I know you're upset because of her, but can you be the bigger person? If you just apologize to her, a lot of things can be smoothed over."She looked at him, confused. "Why should I be the bigger person?""Because you're my girlfriend!" He tried to persuade her.Hearing that, Stephanie couldn't help but laugh out loud. "It look

The expression on Stephanie's face suddenly turned bitter. "Actually, when we first started dating, my friends kept warning me. They said he was way too close with that female friend of his, and that I was going to end up hurt."But I didn't believe them. I thought they were just overthinking everything and would never find real love that way. So, I went ahead and got together with Spencer. But after we got together, I realized they were all correct."In Spencer's eyes, that female friend was always more important than me. Every time she bullied me, he would make me step up and apologize to her."Stephanie looked exhausted. "I could put up with it once or twice, but after a while, anyone would get tired."Alice nodded in strong agreement. "Yeah."Stephanie continued, "Recently, the two of us had another fight because of his 'friend.' And as always, he took her side without question…"After I calmed down, I really sat and thought about it. I realized… It's been like this for years

Stella went silent.Then, she hung up.Alice turned to look at Joseph."What?" he asked.Alice answered plainly, "I don't care who you date in the future, but I don't want to be dragged into it. Otherwise, it'll cause me a lot of trouble.""Alright."Since they had company matters to deal with, neither of them had any free time.After Alice dropped Joseph off at the company, she headed back to Hughes Group.As soon as she got into the elevator, she saw Stephanie coming out of it. Stephanie also noticed Alice, but after just one glance, she looked away.Alice clearly recognized Stephanie, too.As the elevator doors opened, Alice didn't go straight upstairs. Instead, she turned and walked up to Stephanie, asking, "Why are you working at this company now?"Stephanie had expected this encounter. "Obviously, I'm highly capable and got the job."Her family background wasn't impressive. When she was dating her ex-boyfriend, people in his circle always thought she was a gold-digger
A Heart Reclaimed: The Love I Deserve Chapter 848
Everyone went silent."We just thought you two got back together later," his friends replied.Joseph almost laughed out of anger. "I've been broke the whole time. You all should know there's no way she would get back with me."Only then did everyone sound disappointed. "Alright, then."Joseph opened the platform where people were posting, and saw that everyone was trashing them."Alice is a homewrecker! She must get off on stealing other people's boyfriends! If she liked him so much, why didn't she say yes when he confessed? Why wait until he has a girlfriend to start messing around?""Joseph's no better. Someone just crooked a finger at him, and he went running like a dog. He missed out on Stella, a great woman, and now he's doomed to never find love again!""Those two scumbags deserve each other!""Let them stay together! Just don't go ruining anyone else!"The insults were disgusting. Joseph just skipped past them.As he kept refreshing, he suddenly saw Alice's response. I
