Chapter 298

Penulis: Glazed Snow
Dwight was truly unlike any man Halsey had ever interacted with.

Stanley, her father, Gilbert... None of them could cook, because they had plenty of servants to do it for them. But Dwight? He could cook, and by the smell wafting through the house, he seemed quite skilled at it.

Soon, the delicious aroma of braised ribs filled the room. Halsey smiled to herself—just like Madeline, she loved braised ribs. It was one of her favorite dishes.

Before long, Dwight brought the braised ribs to the table. They looked as good as they smelled, and on the side, he had prepared a plate of light stir-fried greens. Halsey wasn't even hungry at first, but now, the sight of the food made her stomach growl.

Just as she was about to take a seat, a cold, harsh voice cut through the moment. "Why are you still here?"

Halsey froze.

She looked up in surprise, her innocent, almond-shaped eyes locking with Dwight's. He had quietly appeared next to her, his gaze sharp and indifferent.

    Shaun and Halsey left, and the other students began to scatter.Sierra was left completely flustered. She tried to stop someone and explain, "Wait, hear me out! It's not what you think…"But the students immediately brushed her off. "You don't need to explain. We've got stuff to do, so we're leaving."No one wanted to listen. Everyone walked away, leaving Sierra behind.She was furious. Her hands balled into fists at her sides, her teeth gritting with anger.Zada lingered nearby, and Sierra quickly grabbed her sleeve. "Don't you think Halsey and Mr. Lane really hate me? Why else would they humiliate me like that?"Zada looked at Sierra carefully, then asked, "That night, you didn't really go into Mr. Lane's room on purpose, right?"Sierra's heart sank. Even Zada was starting to doubt her."What do you mean? Are you doubting me, too? Do you really think I'm that kind of person?"Zada frowned. "I…"Sierra cut her off. "Since even you doubt me, I'm leaving. I know my family's po

    "What?!"The classmates were completely stunned as Halsey described that night in such detail.She continued, "At the time, my fiancé was in the shower. You suddenly barged in, wearing a very revealing and sexy camisole nightgown. He grabbed a bottle and threw it at you, thinking you were an intruder peeping on him. That's just self-defense, right?"Sierra was speechless.The classmates murmured, pointing at her. "You actually went into Mr. Lane's bathroom?""That's way out of line.""Put yourself in Halsey's shoes—if I took in a friend who wasn't well off, and she barged into my fiancé's shower at night in a camisole, I wouldn't stand for it either!""You're way over the line!""Are you into Mr. Lane or something?""She definitely is! Just now, when Mr. Lane called her name, everyone saw how happy she looked, all flustered and dreamy!"All the classmates pointed fingers at Sierra, whispering and gossiping.Halsey sneered. "Sierra, I didn't want to make a big deal out of t

    Shaun admitted that he knew Sierra."Wow!"The entire lecture hall erupted. That one sentence basically announced to everyone that Sierra was his girlfriend."You're so lucky, Sierra! When you marry Mr. Lane, you have to invite us to the wedding!"This was exactly the kind of envious attention Sierra had wanted, but now, it felt suffocating.She hurriedly explained, "No, you've got it all wrong. Mr. Lane and I aren't like that…"Shaun smirked, a cold edge to his tone. "Sierra is right. Our relationship isn't what you imagine. We just know each other. She's not my fiancée."The classmates froze, whispering among themselves. "Wait, what's going on?""Sierra was acting so friendly with Mr. Lane just now. I thought she was his girlfriend!"Shaun looked at Sierra. "I didn't know her before. She's my fiancée's friend, and my fiancée even invited her to stay at our house for a bit. That's how I met her.""Stay at your house?"Because everyone had witnessed Sierra causing a scene

    That was exactly the kind of envious gaze Sierra craved. She needed it more than anything.Around her, classmates whispered and gossiped. "Sierra, what's your relationship with Mr. Lane?""Hey, why is your face so red? Are you dating Mr. Lane?""Sierra's gorgeous, and Mr. Lane is handsome… I think they'd make a perfect couple!""Are you Mr. Lane's girlfriend?"Everyone knew Shaun had a girlfriend, but no one knew who she was.Sierra blushed immediately. "It's not what you think. Don't say things like that, or people will get the wrong idea."She glanced at Halsey while saying it. She knew Halsey was Shaun's fiancée, and honestly, just making Halsey a little uncomfortable made her feel happy.Meanwhile, Halsey didn't react at all.Then, Shaun said casually, "I do know Sierra."He said he knew her, but didn't explain how or what kind of relationship they had. And of course, everyone's imaginations ran wild.Her classmates began to gush. "Sierra, you're not a good friend! Y

    Halsey looked up and saw Shaun's tall, handsome figure step into view.He had come.Shaun had given a lecture here before, but that didn't dampen the students' excitement. In fact, everyone seemed even more energized. The moment he walked in, the entire lecture hall buzzed with anticipation."Hello, Mr. Lane!""Mr. Lane, it's been a while!""We thought you wouldn't come back to class, but here you are! Our wish came true!"The students were practically vibrating with excitement, all eyes glued to Shaun.Today, he wore a custom-tailored black suit over a crisp white shirt with a perfectly knotted tie. His hands, holding a book, were long and elegant—exactly the kind that made those obsessed with hands unable to look away.Shaun walked steadily up to the podium. His sharp, handsome eyes swept across the room with a calm, almost magnetic authority.The chatter gradually quieted down—that was the power of someone in command. The huge lecture hall fell silent without a single sound

    "Halsey, when you put it that way, your fiancé really is a good guy!""Yeah, you and your fiancé are so in love.""If some girl barged into my boyfriend's shower and he threw something at her, I'd be thrilled."Everyone suddenly started admiring the relationship between Halsey and her fiancé.Sierra was stunned. It felt as if she had only managed to make Halsey and Shaun's love story look better. Somehow, she had set up Shaun as the perfect boyfriend."Halsey, come on. Don't keep us guessing. Who's your fiancé?""Yeah, we're dying to know!"Halsey smiled. "You'll find out one day.""Fine, we won't push you.""Let's go grab some food."A few girls pulled Halsey away, and the rest of the crowd quickly dispersed.Sierra stayed behind with Zada, digging her nails so hard into her palms that it hurt. This wasn't at all what she had pictured. She was fuming.She turned to Zada and asked, "Did I mess up again?"Zada comforted her. "No, you didn't do anything wrong. Forget it. L
