Chapter 825

Penulis: Glazed Snow
What?

Halsey froze for a moment, stunned.

Shaun had come to play golf because of her?

At a time when Lincoln Enterprise was on the brink of collapse, its funding running dangerously low, he stood by her side.

Her heart swelled with gratitude. Her clear, shimmering eyes glistened as she looked at Shaun. "Thank you."

She meant it sincerely.

Shaun met her gaze, a faint smile tugging at his lips. "No problem."

The dinner ended on a warm and pleasant note. William left first, and Halsey and Shaun stepped out of the restaurant together.

Halsey looked at Shaun. "I really can't thank you enough this time. If it weren't for you, Mr. Payne would have definitely cut ties with Lincoln Enterprise."

Shaun shook his head. "I'm glad to help. Consider it a thank-you for helping raise Maddy all these years."

Mentioning Madeline brought a proud glow to Halsey's face. "You know, she's done amazing these past three years. Honestly, I didn't do much for her—she did it all by herself. She just got

    Halsey opened her mouth to speak, but Shaun quickly covered it with his hand. "Shh, don't scare him off yet."She grew impatient. "We found him. Now we have to bring him back!"Shaun shook his head. "Gilbert already bought him off. If we just take him back, who knows if he might stab us in the back? That could deal Lincoln Enterprise a fatal blow."Halsey had to admit Shaun was right. Lincoln Enterprise's stock had plummeted and was barely hanging on. They couldn't afford any more trouble.This worker was cunning, full of unknown risks."So what do we do now?"Shaun smirked. "Are you asking for my advice?""I am."Shaun leaned in. "Then let me ask you something.""What?""Didn't you get my texts?"Halsey paused. "...I did."Shaun's eyes narrowed. "So you were ignoring me. Why didn't you reply?""Because I have nothing to say to you."Shaun's expression darkened with anger. He wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her close. "I can deal with this worker for you."Hal

    Shaun said Chelsea wasn't his girlfriend.Halsey froze, staring at him. "That's impossible. She said she was!"Shaun smiled. "Who do you believe—me or her?"She shook her head, uncertain.Shaun's feelings were always hard to read—she had learned that lesson three years ago."If she isn't your girlfriend, then why has she been by your side all these years? Why should I believe you just because you say there's nothing between you two?"Shaun laughed, a little bitter. He wrapped his arms around Halsey's soft waist, pulling her close. "What do you really think of me? Do you think I'm a liar? A guy who won't admit I'm seeing someone?"Halsey pushed him away gently. "I don't want to talk about this right now. I have things to do. Please let me go!"All she wanted now was to save Lincoln Enterprise.Shaun didn't loosen his grip. Instead, he led her over to his luxury car. "Get in."Halsey hesitated. "I told you, I have things to take care of—""Do you not want to find that worker?"

    By now, they had searched through more than half of the Capital, but there wasn't a single trace of the worker.Suddenly, a thought struck Halsey. "I've got it!""Do you know where he is?" one of her aides asked eagerly.With a burst of excitement, Halsey said, "We need to hurry to this one place—I'm pretty sure he's hiding there.""Got it. Let's go now."Halsey had been sitting down to catch her breath, but now she sprang to her feet, anxiety making her restless. Just as she turned to leave, she twisted her ankle badly and stumbled, falling forward."Ah!" she cried, bracing for a hard impact with the ground.But the pain she expected never came. Instead, a strong arm wrapped around her waist, steadying her and pulling her gently into a warm, broad embrace.Looking up, Halsey found Shaun's handsome face, partially hidden behind a mask.Shaun was here.He had just stepped out of his car when he saw her faltering and caught her just in time.Halsey hadn't expected him to sho

    Shaun had been stuck in meetings all day, completely unaware that Halsey had come looking for him.His eyes darkened as he glared at Chelsea. "Did you know Lincoln Enterprise was in trouble and deliberately kept Halsey from seeing me?"Chelsea shook her head quickly. "I had no idea… I can explain..."Warren tried to speak up for Chelsea. "I don't think Chelsea did it on purpose—"But Shaun cut him off without a word, and then stared straight at Chelsea. "Don't come to my company again. I don't want to see you here, ever."With that, Shaun turned to his secretary. "Find out where Halsey is right now. And get a car ready immediately. I'm going after her."The secretary nodded. "Right away."Without hesitation, Shaun sprinted out, determined to find Halsey.Chelsea froze where she stood, watching helplessly as Shaun chased after Halsey. His heart and mind belonged only to Halsey.And now, Shaun had just told Chelsea that she wasn't welcome at the company anymore—it was like a har

    "Enough!" Madeline snapped at Warren, her voice sharp and fierce. "That's nonsense! Halsey would never abandon Shaun! Sure, Chelsea has been by his side these past three years, but Halsey has taken care of me all this time. When I lost my mom and my brother wasn't around, Halsey gave me a home. "She took me from Hovendale to the Capital and enrolled me in school. She dropped me off and picked me up every day. For three years, she poured all her time and care into me. And not just that—her parents have treated me like family, with nothing but kindness. "Halsey isn't just my sister; she's my future sister-in-law. I respect and love her with all my heart, so I won't let any of you say a bad word about her!"Warren fell silent. It was true—Halsey had helped Madeline out a lot. Without her, Madeline wouldn't be who she was today.Shaun gently gripped Madeline's shoulders. "You misunderstood. Chelsea and I are just friends."Madeline looked at him, eyes searching. "Really? You don

    Shaun froze for a moment. "Maddy!"Madeline took off running toward him.Without hesitation, Shaun reached out and pulled her into his arms.Tears streamed down Madeline's cheeks as she buried her face against his chest, choking on her sobs. "Is it really you? I recognized you that day… I knew you were my brother! Why didn't you tell me who you were?"That day, Shaun had disguised himself as a cab driver. She had known it was him, but he had denied it.Shaun held her tighter, unsure if his scarred face would frighten her. Sometimes he wished the person he was back then—the one Halsey and Madeline remembered—could stay frozen in time. He really hoped they would never see his now ruined face."Where have you been all these years? Why didn't you come back? Halsey and I have missed you so much! Didn't you miss us at all?" Madeline sobbed uncontrollably.Shaun rocked her gently. "I think about you both every day. I miss you more than you know."Their parents were gone now. In this w
