Author: Glazed Snow
Jessica's voice trembled with anger as she glared daggers at Wendy.

"What do you think you're doing?! This is the Larson family's private affair! What right do you have to stick your nose in?"

Ida slid off the bed, her carefully crafted plan unraveling before her eyes. Everything had been going so smoothly, but Wendy had thrown a wrench into it all.

Ida dropped her fragile act and fixed Wendy with a cold, hard stare. "Ms. Crone, you truly have a knack for meddling in things that don't concern you."

Wendy's clear eyes locked onto Ida's face, calm but sharp. "I get why you're angry. Anyone could tell you're interested in Mr. Larson, except maybe him."

Ida's expression faltered.

"But if you don't mind me being blunt," Wendy continued, "Mr. Larson hasn't divorced Ms. Brewer yet. You openly climbing into a married man's bed—aren't you basically playing the role of the other woman? Do you really enjoy being a homewrecker?"

Ida stiffened like a statue. She had once won against the leg

    Shaun replied, [Is that so?]Just three simple words, but they carried his usual cool, commanding vibe—with a touch of something softer, more caring.Halsey answered, [Yes, I promise!]After that, Shaun didn't reply anymore.Putting her phone down, Halsey focused on her book.

[What are you doing right now?]No reply.Why wasn't he answering? Probably busy.Just then, one of her female classmates exclaimed, "Halsey, stop texting! Look, the business star is here!"The room buzzed. "He's here! Look!""Is he hot?""Where is he? I don't see him!"Then a tall, handsome figure walked in, and the whole lecture

    The students around immediately gathered in a circle, buzzing with gossip. "What's this huge news everyone's talking about?""Does Anteoch University really have some big news? How come I haven't heard anything?""I haven't caught wind of anything either," someone else added.One of the girls, excited, said, "Of course you haven't heard it! This major news has just been confirmed. I'm the first to get it, so you know it's legit!""Then stop teasing us. Spill it! What's the big news?""Well, listen up!

    Martin was in no rush, but Shaun definitely was.And not just a little—he was seriously anxious.Shaun said, "Look, this situation's kinda unusual. Your girlfriend is out meeting another guy. Don't you care she might end up falling for him instead?"Martin smiled a little. "Let me guess—you sent Ms. Mallin a text and she didn't reply, is that right?"Shaun didn't say anything.Martin was very smart and a capable assistant. But right now, Shaun wouldn't have minded if he were a bit more clueless.Martin continued, "If you really miss Ms. Mallin, you could always call her. That's better than sitting here overthinking everything."Shaun figured this had to be what love felt like—it made people nervous, made them spiral with all kinds of crazy thoughts.Shaun ordered, "Cancel everything on my schedule this afternoon."Martin blinked. "What are you planning to do?"Shaun smiled. He had a plan.-Meanwhile, at Anteoch University, Halsey had been running around nonstop since she g

    Shaun pulled his multi-million-dollar car up in front of Anteoch University. Today, he was dressed in the classic rich CEO look—black suit, crisp white shirt. The moment he stepped out, his handsome and refined appearance turned heads.It didn't take long for the young, pretty college girls to start glancing his way; eyes lighting up with interest, soft smiles blooming as they exchanged looks full of curiosity and admiration.Shaun didn't pay them any attention. He was used to this kind of reaction. After watching Halsey disappear into the campus, he turned around and got into his luxury car, ready to leave.Just then, he heard someone tapping on his window.Shaun slowly lowered it. Standing outside was a pretty student, her eyes shining as she looked at him. She gave him a sweet smile. "Hi."Shaun's expression stayed perfectly calm. "Something you need?"The girl gathered her courage. "Hi, um... Can I get your number?""Sorry," Shaun replied without a change in expression. "My

    Shaun let out a helpless sigh. Honestly, he still wanted to ask more about Calvin—but he didn't want to ruin Halsey's mood, so he kept it to himself.Holding her in his arms, he asked, "You hungry?"Halsey nodded. "Yeah, I am.""I'll go make something to eat, then."Shaun got out of bed."Why don't we just let the housekeeper cook? Don't you have work to do?" she asked."From now on, I'll be doing the cooking myself. What, you don't like my cooking?"Shaun was actually an amazing cook—just as good as a pro chef. Halsey nodded. "I do like it."That was all he needed to hear.They say the way to a woman's heart is through her stomach. Shaun figured he had better keep sharpening his kitchen skills.-The next morning, Halsey woke up at 7 AM.Shaun, still lying beside her, said, "Want to sleep a little longer?""No, I've got to get to school! I haven't been in years, and I'm a little nervous!"Shaun sat up and looked at her anxious face. "What's there to be nervous about?"B

    Halsey looked at Shaun with a sweet smile. "Mr. Lane, you're still so young. Shouldn't you be focused on making money or being with a bunch of pretty girls? Is getting married all you can think about?"Shaun pulled her into a tight hug. "All I want is to marry you. Is that so wrong?"Halsey laughed. "Not at all!"Just then, a soft ringtone filled the air. Halsey's phone was ringing."Hold on. Let me take this." She glanced at the screen. "It's Calvin."Shaun narrowed his eyes slightly. He remembered that name well. When it came to the men around Halsey, he had a sharper memory than anyone.Calvin came from a good family and worked as a university professor. He was smart and respectable.And Halsey wasn't just anyone—she was a rich heiress. Naturally, there were plenty of high-quality men constantly around her. Even though Shaun was doing well himself now, it didn't stop him from feeling a little uneasy.There were way too many men who liked Halsey."I'll take the call," she
