Chapter 515

Author: Glazed Snow
Halsey sat in the luxurious car, growing more frustrated with each passing minute. She had sent multiple texts to Dwight, but not a single one had been answered.

Why wasn't he responding?

Halsey felt a knot of unease in her stomach.

Cyril, observing her, chuckled lightly. "He still hasn't replied, huh?"

Halsey shot him a glare. "You're just enjoying watching me suffer, aren't you?"

Cyril laughed openly, not holding back. "I've told you before—you can't control Dwight. But someone like Gilbert—if you figure out how to control him, you could have him wrapped around your finger for life."

Cyril was offering his usual brand of philosophy.

Halsey frowned. "I don't have feelings for Gilbert. What would I want to control him for? Don't underestimate me—just watch, I'll definitely win Dwight's heart!"

Cyril only gave a light chuckle and spoke no more.

The day of the surgery soon arrived.

    Shaun felt his chest fill up in the best way. No matter how busy he was outside, coming home to his pregnant fiancée was everything. Happiness felt real here.This was all anyone could really want in life.He wrapped his arms around Halsey and rested his big hand on her round belly. "You're almost six months now. This is when it starts getting tough. Try to get to bed earlier, okay? I'll do my best to come home sooner."Tonight, he'd made it back by 8 PM, which wasn't late at all. But usually, he was home around 6 PM, already in the kitchen cooking dinner.Halsey smiled, lips curving up. "You've had a long day, too. Go on upstairs and take a shower.""You're coming with me," Shaun said.She held up her sketch pencil. "Let me just finish this design first, then I'll come up."He looked at her half-done drawing, nodded, and said, "Alright. I'll go ahead and shower first." Then, he headed upstairs.Just then, Jocelyn walked to Halsey, carrying a little bowl. "I brought you som

    Sierra looked at the rug. "This is, what, a Biazean carpet? It's so soft. And that chandelier—it had to be imported from Cruiseland, right? It sparkles like a pearl! And this sofa…"Her awe was written all over her face; there was no way to hide it.Halsey tilted her head. "I thought you said your family didn't have much money. How do you know all this stuff?"Sierra froze. She looked up and ran right into Halsey's clear, sharp gaze.Her stomach dropped as she cursed herself. She'd gotten too excited and slipped up! The whole poor-girl backstory she had spun didn't match the way she could recognize luxury items at a glance.Quick on her feet, Sierra forced a smile. "Oh…right. I studied interior design for a while. I saw things like this in magazines, so that's how I recognize them."Halsey curved her lips in a light smile. "I was just asking. No need to get nervous.""Haha, I know," Sierra muttered, trying to cover.Just then, Jocelyn walked in. "Welcome home, Mrs. Lane."Hals

    Halsey listened quietly to Zada's whole story before finally saying, "So let me get this straight. The night you got into trouble, Sierra just happened to show up and save you. Then you find out she goes to Anteoch University as well, and you two become besties. Then, you introduced her to me. Kinda feels like a perfect little coincidence, don't you think?"Zada frowned. "What are you saying? You think Sierra saved me on purpose, just to get close?"Halsey raised her brows. "I didn't say that."Zada thought about it, then shook her head. "Come on. You've seen Sierra's situation. Her dad's a gambler who hits her, and her whole family leans on her to make money… She's got it rough. I really think she's just a sweet, unlucky girl. We shouldn't overthink it."Seeing how much Zada trusted Sierra, Halsey let it drop. For Zada, Sierra really had been a lifesaver, so of course, she was grateful.Halsey smiled. "Alright. No more talk about Sierra. Let's get ready for class."Zada nodded

    Halsey pulled out her phone and started dialing 911.The big guy glanced at Sierra, and she gave him a quick look, telling him to run.He bolted out the door.A few classmates shouted after him, "What, you scared now? I thought you were so tough you'd stick around for the cops!"But the man was long gone.Everyone rushed over to Halsey instead."Halsey, you were amazing!" one girl said, her voice still shaky."I was so scared I could barely breathe," another admitted. "But you weren't. You stood up to him like it was nothing!"Halsey shook her head, serious as ever. "Listen. When your safety's on the line, fear won't help you. The only thing that works is the law. Always protect yourself with it."Zada grinned and stuck up her thumb. "You're the best!"Sierra was silent, her face filled with frustration. She had put on this whole performance, and somehow it was Halsey who walked away the hero. Everyone was crowded around Halsey, cheering her on. What about Sierra, the suppo

    Sierra had secretly hired a man in his fifties to play her abusive, gambling dad.Her hair was a mess, her clothes tugged and wrinkled in his grip. She put on her best desperate voice. "Let go of me! I just want to stay here and study! I don't wanna ruin my whole life!"The man growled, "What's the point of a girl getting so much education? A woman's real value is getting married and having kids!"Sierra widened her eyes in fear. "What are you trying to do? Are you trying to push me toward those shady guys again? They're all just like you—drunks, gamblers, and abusers! I don't want to meet them!"The man sneered, "Listen, sweetheart, someone's already offered me six grand to marry you! Six thousand bucks! Marry this guy, be a good wife, pop out some boys, and he'll keep the cash rolling in. Then I'll finally live the good life, thanks to you."Tears slid down Sierra's cheeks. "No! I don't want that. I'm your daughter, not some money machine!""Shut it!" he barked. "Come with me r

    Halsey glanced at Shaun. "Let's go."The two of them walked off together, leaving Sierra standing there frozen.She couldn't believe it. They had really just ditched her like that? Why?Anger bubbled up in her chest. She stomped her foot on the floor, shaking with frustration. If being nice wasn't working, then it was time to play dirty.Sierra pulled out her phone, dialed a number, and hissed, "Hey, find me two guys… I'll pay you."Her eyes stayed locked in the direction Halsey disappeared. No way was she letting Halsey live so happily! If she wasn't doing well, then nobody else deserved to either.Shaun's face flashed in her mind again, sharp and perfect—the kind of thing that made you restless just thinking about it. The more untouchable he seemed, the more she wanted him. She swore she'd make him hers, no matter what.-Shaun's sleek black car slid onto the road, with him at the wheel and Halsey in the passenger seat.She glanced at him. "You don't seem to like Sierra very
