Chapter 636

Penulis: Glazed Snow
The Zenith Gala this time was a gathering of the elite, a place where the most powerful and influential people would come together.

Jessica thrived in these high-society environments. She loved the spotlight, the wealth, and the games of power. Of course, she wanted to go, and she wanted to go with Stanley.

Stanley refused. "I'm not taking you."

"What…"

Jessica had anticipated this response—she was prepared for it. "The Larson family has been invited to the Zenith Gala as well. My father doesn't attend such events, so I want to go. Can I at least ride in your car?"

"No," Stanley said firmly.

Jessica's face stiffened for a moment.

Without sparing her another glance, Stanley turned and walked away.

Though Jessica was disappointed, she quickly composed herself. "Mrs. Hawk, since Stanley doesn't want to take me, I'll have the driver drop me off."

Angela nodded. "Alright. Once you're at the Zenith Gala, you'll still have the chance to be around Stanley. Go enjoy yourself."

    Halsey had saved Shaun's number as "Mr. Lane" on her phone.Shaun was calling.Sierra immediately perked up, listening closely.Halsey pressed the answer button. "Hello?"Shaun's deep, magnetic voice came through right away. "Hey… Are you still upset?"Halsey glanced at Sierra from the corner of her eye. She knew Sierra was eavesdropping.A cold laugh formed in Halsey's mind, but she forced herself to sound annoyed. "Shouldn't I be upset?"Shaun tried to explain. "Listen to me. Nothing happened between me and Sierra. You've got it all wrong!"Halsey snapped, "If nothing happened, then why were you together?"Shaun hesitated. "She came into my room."Halsey frowned. "If you hadn't given her the chance, how could she have gotten in there?""I—"Halsey cut him off. "Forget it. I don't want to hear anything else. That's it. I'm hanging up."Shaun's voice grew urgent. "Wait! Come to the restaurant now, and I'll explain everything in person!"Halsey shook her head. "I don't wan

    Sierra looked at Zada. Even though she had tried to drive a wedge between Zada and Halsey, she knew that Zada still genuinely cared about Halsey.Seeing Halsey, pregnant and betrayed by Shaun, clearly made Zada anxious.Sierra smirked to herself. She really couldn't understand what made Halsey so special that her fiancé and friends all treated her with such genuine care.Sierra grabbed Zada's arm. "I was really scared back then, but I told him no."Zada patted her on the back reassuringly. "You did the right thing. Mr. Lane and Halsey are getting married. We can't cross lines like that. Some moral boundaries just shouldn't be broken."Sierra nodded obediently, playing the part of the good girl. "I know."Zada glanced toward the schoolyard. "Right now, the media is going crazy over what happened between you and Mr. Lane. I have a feeling this is only gonna get bigger. Maybe it's better if you and Halsey meet up and talk it out calmly."Sierra frowned. "Talk it out? How?"Zada sh

    The reporters buzzed with questions. "So what's really going on between Mr. Lane and that college girl?"Warren held up a hand, trying to calm the crowd. "Everyone, please hold on and listen. I'm speaking for Mr. Lane here. He has no relationship with the college student named Sierra Fletcher. We hope these rumors will stop immediately. If anyone continues to spread false information, Lane Corporation's legal team will collect all the evidence and will not hesitate to take action."Sierra let out a cold laugh. Warren's statement sounded official, but it didn't reveal anything new.The reporters weren't impressed. "What is Mr. Lane playing at?" someone shouted. "He was supposed to hold a press conference, but now he's not showing up."Warren interrupted firmly, "Mr. Lane is really busy right now."A reporter pressed, "Busy with what?"Martin, standing nearby, blurted out, "Mrs. Lane is here, so he's busy keeping her company!"Warren shot him a sharp look. "There are things yo

    Shaun said solemnly, "The lawyers from Lane Corporation are already getting ready. I'm planning to sue Sierra officially for spreading lies and defaming me, deliberately damaging my reputation!""Do you think you actually have a chance of winning?" Halsey asked."Nothing ever happened between Sierra and me. We'll win for sure," Shaun replied confidently.Halsey shook her head. "Even if you win, you're still going to get stuck in this scandal. Sometimes, people don't care about the truth. They just love gossip."Warren nodded. "That's true. Honestly, Sierra's kind of twisted. She knows she won't win, but her goal is to drag Shaun through a scandal and tank Lane Corporation's stock."Halsey remembered Sierra's chilling words. She had sworn that if she couldn't have it easy, she would make sure no one else would. Sierra was definitely a little unhinged and extreme.Halsey then leaned forward. "I might have a solution. Do you want to hear it?"Shaun and Warren's eyes lit up. Warre

    Martin was sweating bullets. "I'll go in first and give Mr. Lane a heads-up."Halsey stepped forward. "No need!"She pushed open the office door herself.Shaun and Warren were both inside. Shaun looked up, surprised to see Halsey.Warren froze. "Ms. Mallin? What are you doing here? Martin, how could you not tell us she was coming?"Shaun immediately stood and walked toward Halsey. "What are you doing here?"Martin looked guilty. "I…"Halsey waved him off. "Don't blame Martin. He tried to stop me, but I came in anyway."Shaun frowned. "Okay. But why did you come here? Aren't you supposed to be at school?"Halsey shook her head. "I didn't feel like going today. I came to check on you."Her clear, beautiful eyes flicked from Shaun to Warren and Martin. "What's with these looks? You all seem like you're not happy to see me. Am I bothering you?"Warren quickly said, "No, no! We just didn't expect you."Shaun added, "You should've called me before coming."Halsey sat down on the

    Sierra laughed. "You probably haven't seen the news yet. I suggest you check it out!"Halsey furrowed her brow. "Haven't you learned your lesson from the past? Do all the bad things you want, and karma will catch up to you!"Sierra didn't care. "I don't know what karma is. All I know is I'm not willing to give up. I'm not going to let you have it easy!"Then came two quick beeps. Sierra had hung up.Halsey stared at her phone and started scrolling through the news. She wanted to see what trouble Sierra had stirred up this time.But she didn't really need to, as today's headlines screamed, "Rising Business Star Shaun Lane Caught in Scandal!"Halsey clicked on the story. Seeing Sierra's face, she immediately understood what had happened last night.Shaun and Sierra had been at the same private club. Sierra had cried, accusing Shaun of trying to assault her. The story had already dominated every news outlet.Halsey's brow furrowed deeply. She hadn't realized things had blown up th
