Chapter 757

Author: Glazed Snow
Wendy and Halsey arranged to meet at a fancy restaurant. They sat together in a luxurious private room, and Halsey handed Wendy the menu.

"You waited at the courthouse all day—you must be starving. Go ahead and order whatever you want."

Wendy didn't hesitate. She flipped through the menu and picked out a few dishes.

"What exactly happened today? Why didn't Stanley show up at the courthouse?" Halsey asked.

Wendy shook her head. "I don't know. I called him, but he never answered."

With a sharp slap, Halsey pounded the table. "This is ridiculous! Stanley stood you up? I'll call him right now to find out what's going on!"

She immediately pulled out her phone and dialed Stanley's number. The ringing tone sounded clearly, but no one picked up.

Halsey sighed in frustration. "Why won't he answer? What the hell is he doing today?"

Just then, the waiter brought their food, and Wendy quietly began to eat.

Halsey said, "Don't worry! I'll make sure Stanley gives you an explanation."

    Halsey held her pen, sketching designs on paper. She looked up at Zada and nodded. "See you tomorrow."Zada waved and left.Ding!Halsey's phone buzzed—it was a WhatsApp message. She opened it. It was a text from Shaun. [Hey, honey. Class over yet?]Last night she had said yes to his proposal, and now he was already calling her "honey". Halsey's heart warmed. She typed back a reply. [Just finished, honey!]Shaun's reply was instant. [Then come out now. I'm already outside the gate.]Halsey's delicate lashes fluttered. [You came to pick me up?]Shaun, ever confident, answered, [I'm taking you to try on wedding dresses!]Halsey's lips curved into a small smile. [Okay, I'm coming now.][I'll be waiting!]She put away her pencil, stepped out of the classroom, and walked toward the gate.Soon, she spotted Shaun's luxury car parked across the street. Last night, she had told him to park there instead of right in front of the school—it would've been too flashy. Shaun had done a

    Sierra quickly wiped away her sad, insecure expression and replaced it with a bright, dazzling smile. "Halsey, you're so nice!"She reached out and took Halsey's hand. "From now on, we're gonna be good friends!"Zada added her hand on top of theirs. "The three of us should hang out together from now on."Halsey nodded. "Okay."Just then, a tall, calm figure walked in—it was Calvin.He looked at Halsey. "Hey, Halsey."Halsey smiled. "Hello, Professor Johnson."Calvin returned her smile. "This is your second day in class, right? Are you settling in okay?"Halsey nodded. "I'm doing really well. Thanks for asking, Professor Johnson."Zada whispered excitedly to Halsey, "Wow, you're good friends with Professor Johnson?"Halsey didn't want to cause any awkwardness, but Calvin's easy smile and straightforward tone put her at ease. "Yes," he said. "Halsey is like a little sister to me. We've known each other a long time."Seeing Calvin so open and sincere, Halsey didn't argue."I

    Shaun was genuinely happy. He wished he could throw Halsey both a church wedding and a garden ceremony to make Halsey the happiest bride in the world.Of course, he also wanted to be the happiest groom.Halsey had actually wanted a church wedding, but now that she was more than five months pregnant, she didn't want to strain herself with the wedding planning. For now, the baby came first.She smiled and said, "Let's just do a small garden ceremony."Shaun nodded. "Perfect. I'll have my people prep for the wedding and order the dress. You'll be the most beautiful bride ever!"Halsey hugged Shaun tightly. After such a long love story, they were finally approaching a perfect ending. She rested her head against his chest and whispered, "I love spending every single second with you. You make me so happy."Shaun held her close, feeling the same.-The next morning…Halsey went to Anteoch University. Shaun had already started preparing for the wedding, but her studies couldn't just s

    Shaun looked at Halsey with deep affection. "There are thousands of women in this world, but I only love you, too."They shared a smile and a tender kiss.When they pulled apart, Shaun dropped to one knee. "I know I said I'd give you time to think, and I could wait, but I just can't anymore. I can't wait to make you my wife, to have you as my Mrs. Lane. Halsey… Will you marry me?"Shaun had just proposed.The moment didn't go unnoticed. Several people nearby stopped and crowded around them, cheering and shouting, "Say yes! Say yes! Say yes!"Bathed in bright lights and the excitement of the crowd, Halsey lifted her lips into a soft smile. "I will!"She said yes.Right after Halsey agreed, Shaun's eyes lit up with overwhelming joy. He had done it. His proposal had succeeded—Halsey was going to be his wife!Shaun stood and scooped Halsey into his arms. "Yes! You're finally mine!"He held her and spun around a few times, laughter bubbling out. The crowd cheered even louder.Hals

    Halsey told Calvin straight up that she really loved Shaun.Outside the door, Shaun's lips curved into a small smile. He had known all along—he always had.Calvin, on the other hand, was stunned. He had planned to tell Halsey what he really felt tonight. If the families could arrange for them to be engaged, it would've been perfect. But now, it was clear that Halsey was taken.Halsey placed her hand gently on her lower belly, her delicate features glowing with maternal warmth. "Besides, I'm pregnant. Shaun and I are already over five months along."Calvin's eyes widened. Halsey was so slim, and with her loose dress, it was impossible to tell she was expecting.Still, Calvin was the type who could accept things gracefully. He gave a small, bitter smile. "I see. Congratulations."Halsey returned the smile. "Thank you. I'm really glad to have a friend like you."She had excellent timing and tact. By being honest before Calvin could confess, she spared him any embarrassment, prese

    Halsey grinned. "Calvin, perfect timing! Here's the menu. Let's order!"She handed the menu to Calvin.Calvin took it and flipped through the pages. "I remember you loved barbecue ribs when you were a kid."At that moment, Shaun had just finished his phone call and turned toward the private room door.Since the door wasn't fully closed, Shaun heard Calvin talking to Halsey about childhood memories. He withdrew his hand from the door handle and didn't rush in. Instead, he stayed there quietly, curious about what Halsey and Calvin were chatting about.Halsey nodded. "Yeah, but not just as a kid. I still love them! It's kind of sweet that you remember my childhood favorites."Calvin smiled warmly. "Of course, I remember! But back then, you were really close to Gilbert, and your families even arranged for your engagement."Halsey didn't want to bring up Gilbert. There were no good memories there. "I'm sure you've heard about Gilbert. There are no secrets in our circles. He's history
