She's Mine To Claim

Outside, the lights shone brightly, as elegantly dressed ladies with perfumed clothes and beautiful hair gathered upstairs for a lively drinking party. A large group of people enjoyed drinks and games.However, all this excitement meant nothing to Hailey Stewart. The only couple hosting the engagement ceremony upstairs was her ex-boyfriend and his new fiancée. Hailey, who had initially planned to confront them, was shocked to discover that she couldn’t even enter the banquet hall. How ironic!Looking at the blue rose a kind stranger had given her in the bathroom, Hailey hesitated to discard it, feeling it would be a waste. With the flower in hand, she left the hotel, which had soured her mood.As Hailey was about to enter the elevator, she realized she was about to make a mistake. Unsure of what to do next, she halted her steps.A man in black stood in the elevator’s corner. When he noticed the flower in Hailey’s hand, he appeared surprised.“Are you Mrs. Belle? Our boss has been waiti

The second son of the Blake family adopted Calvin Blake. After his abandonment on a snowy day, the matriarch of the Blake family took him in. Currently, he lay down on a hospital bed, pale and thin, his survival dependent solely on the medical instruments by his side. Hailey stood in front of the hospital bed, gazing at the person lying there for a long time, much to the annoyance of her mother-in-law, Rowena Harver. “What’s the point of standing there? If you can’t help, step aside!” Rowena exclaimed. A servant brought a basin of warm water, and Rowena cleaned Calvin’s face and hands. Unable to give birth, Rowena had placed all her hopes in Calvin, despite his current illness. Feeling helpless, Hailey took two steps back to give space to the emaciated Rowena, a pitiful figure. At that moment, Calvin’s hand flashed. Unnoticed at first, he then opened his eyes. Rowena, tearful yet composed, immediately requested the servant call a doctor. She felt the urgency, so she dispatched th

Hailey furrowed her brow and quickly grabbed a thick pillow to support Travis’s hand, making it easier to handle. As she gently grabbed Travis’s wrist, two audible gasps filled the room, drawing the attention of Travis’s mother, Thalia. Though the butler’s expression remained stoic, she silently observed the reactions of the two individuals, noting their struggle to maintain composure and their need for reassurance. After carefully applying alcohol to Travis’s wound, Hailey noticed his hand trembling slightly from the irritation. Witnessing Travis’s volatile temperament and the force with which he had hit the car window, Hailey felt a pang of concern. She understood the potential danger if Travis’s anger turned toward her. After contemplating, she kneeled to tend to Travis’s wound, surprising him and leaving the onlookers, including the butler and servants, in disbelief. The Blake family elders had been aware of Travis’s mild mysophobia since he was young, as well as his desire to ma

Hailey looked at the bus stop not far away, then crouched down to look at Travis, who was staring straight ahead in the car. She said calmly, “Thank you for your kindness, but I’ll be fine taking the bus.”When Travis heard this, he turned to give her a sharp look. “Do you want others to think that the Harvey family is mistreating their new lady? She can only use a public bus if she wants to go out?”There was no need to mention Hailey’s status as the new Harvey lady since only the Harveys and Stewarts knew. Hailey also didn’t think there was anything wrong with taking a public bus.However, she could only keep these thoughts to herself and not say anything out loud. Despite her desire to take the bus, she faced accusations of harming the Harvey family’s reputation. If she kept insisting, other people might think she was just putting on a facade.She wasn’t sure if she wanted Travis to know where she was going.As she still hesitated, Travis said, “Get in the car.” His tone revealed h

Before Hailey could realize what was happening, someone had grabbed her arm and pulled her forward. The person desperately dragged her forward. The person surprised her by pulling her in a sprint for quite a distance before stopping.As they ran, she heard a loud crash.After regaining her footing, she turned around unconsciously. Right where she was, an SUV had hit the sidewalk. The car’s front suffered severe denting.If she had still been there... Hailey couldn’t help but shudder. She didn’t dare to continue that line of thought.“Are you okay?” A soft and seductive voice sounded in her ears.Hailey instinctively turned to look at the person, only to find a handsome, translucent, and youthful face before her. His face appeared to be concerned, and his dark eyes gazed at her. His elegant facial features looked quite dazzling in the sunlight.“Just now... Did you rescue me?” Hailey asked with little thought and confusion.The handsome man smiled. “I wouldn’t call it a rescue. It turn
