“I agree. Now that she’s dating a wealthy man, we’ve only chosen a few inexpensive items. Why is she so stingy?” Sherry added.

“Well, I wouldn’t mind meeting such an eligible bachelor myself!” Ivy remarked.

“Quiet; he’s here,” Cathy whispered urgently as Selena Sylvia exited the kitchen.

Eight maids trailed behind her, each carrying plates filled with crab, lobster, and abalone. The extravagant meal must have cost over $10,000.

“Ivy, Cathy, and Sherry, please help yourselves. The Dylan Edward family’s servants are exceptional cooks, especially Janice,” Selena Sylvia offered. Just as they were about to dig in, the doorbell rang.

“Janice, please answer the door. It must be Dylan,” Selena Sylvia instructed. Unbeknownst to Selena Sylvia, her so-called “best friends” straightened up in their seats as a man named Mr. Dylan approached. The lady stepped aside, and he handed her coat to him.

“Dylan, you’re at home,” Selena Sylvia said as she approached and kissed his cheek.

“Look, they’re my b

  • Mom, We Got You a Husband!   Chapter 71

    Nardy looked at me seriously. I feared him and wanted to run away. I was drunk the other night and wanted to get back at Leonard, but now that I was sober, I regretted it. I didn't want to sleep with him again.“Is there another way? I’ll do anything but that…” I smiled awkwardly and tried to move back. Oh no, he’s going to make me do something I don’t want to!“Shayeen, do you think you have a choice? Ha! No woman can say no to me!” Nardy said with a bossy tone, walking toward me.I felt angry at him. He thought so highly of himself! How could he think all women wanted him? Just because he was rich and good-looking?I stepped back. Should I run? But would I even escape?“You said I was amazing before. I’ll let you enjoy it again tonight!” Nardy said.By then, he was close to me. His suggestive tone and look made me feel trapped and helpless, like I couldn’t get away.“Please let me go! I’m sorry for what I did before. Just forgive me!” I said, pretending to be weak and pitiful. I hat

    After Sophie finished talking, she tried to hug him. I thought there was no way Nardy would turn her down. She was a famous, beautiful star, and men would do anything just to see her.I thought he’d give in, but to my surprise, he did the opposite. He pushed her away without hesitation. His face stayed cold and serious."Don’t make me say it again. We’re done," he said.I couldn’t believe it! He didn’t even think twice. And the way he spoke... I was so angry at him inside.What was I expecting? Even Leonard, a department manager, cheated on me. So, of course, a rich and successful guy like Nardy would be the same. I bet women were after him all the time."How could you be so heartless? We’ve been together so long! I deserve an explanation!" Sophie cried, her voice cracking. Even I felt sorry for her, and I’m sure Nardy did too."Do you really need me to explain? I didn’t say anything so you could keep some dignity," Nardy replied coldly."I don’t understand. What do you mean?" Sophie

    I knew Nardy owned this advertising company, but since it was just his side business, I didn’t expect to see him here. The chances of running into such a busy man were slim.My focus was on getting the job and moving forward in my career. I needed to stop feeling sorry for myself and build a future.With my qualifications and experience, I was confident I could get a job at any regular company. But this was Joyful Success Advertisements. They had some of the best employee benefits in the industry, and their hiring process was tough. I couldn’t be sure if I would be hired or not.After the interview, I felt a little off. For a side business, this company was huge. I never expected to see thousands of employees working there.I couldn’t help but think of Nardy. He was in his early thirties and already had so much wealth. I couldn’t even imagine how rich he must be. He was probably the wealthiest person I’d ever met.But that wasn’t my concern. My only goal was to get hired here.As I wa

    “What’s your relationship with Leonard Parker?” Nardy finally asked. His eyes were filled with questions as he stared at me.When I heard the name "Leonard Parker," my heart tightened. But I had already gotten through the hardest part, so I hid my pain well.“I don’t have a relationship with him. We’re strangers now.”Once, he was the most important person in my life, the man I was going to spend forever with. But now, we were just strangers.“Do you really think I’d believe that, Shayeen Walton?”His eyes grew cold, and his voice carried a hint of anger.His words made my heart skip a beat. How did he know my name? I don’t think I’ve ever told him!“How did you know my name? Did I tell you?” I asked quietly, looking up into his intense eyes.“Do you think it’s hard for me to find out about someone? Also, the woman with Leonard Parker earlier mentioned your name.”He spoke with a deep, smooth voice, frowning at me as if I were foolish.“I… I need to go. It’s just a coincidence that we

    Just when I thought Nardy was going to leave me hanging, he suddenly wrapped an arm around my waist and gave me a faint smile.“Sorry, I got a little carried away that night. Are you feeling better now?”His face was soft, his voice so gentle that it almost made me melt.For a moment, I just stared at him, taken by the tenderness in his gaze. He was so handsome.But as soon as I realized what he had said, my face turned bright red.Good heavens! How could he be so blunt?“Uh… Ah, I’m much better now,” I said, trying to chuckle awkwardly. His eyes were so intense that I couldn’t bring myself to look into them again.“I’ll make sure not to hurt you again next time,” he said, reaching up to tuck my long hair behind my ear, looking at me with so much gentleness.For some reason, his touch made my face go even redder.Wait, did he just say “next time”? There won’t be a next time! I’ve already given you my first time, and you’re talking about another one?I cursed him in my mind but had to

    Seeing the look of contempt on Creza ’s face, Zaty’s expression shifted to pure fury. “Watch your mouth, Creza Haynes! Leonard and I love each other. If it weren’t for Shayeen, we would’ve been together a long time ago!”Creza rolled her eyes and made a disgusted face. “Homewreckers always say that. But all those ‘true love’ claims are just lies. You’re not in love. You’re just a slut who stole your best friend’s fiancé.”Zaty glared at her, rage clear on her face. “Who are you calling a slut? Say it again if you dare, Creza Haynes!”“Doesn’t the person I’m talking about already know who she is? Some people still act like they’re royalty, even though they’re just sluts. How gross!”Creza wasn’t backing down. She glared right back at Zaty.Their argument was drawing attention, so I quickly tugged on Creza ’s arm. “There’s no point in fighting with people like this. Let’s just go.”“Leonard, aren’t you going to do anything about them picking on me?”Zaty grabbed Leonard’s arm with a s
