Mr. Hunter called to inform Valeria that he would be working overtime and on duty that night, unable to come home. He told her to go to sleep first.Actually, she had been anxious about one thing all week. It had been almost a week, and if Shane wanted to make any demands regarding their marital life, she wouldn't be able to refuse.When she received the call, she was genuinely relieved because at least tonight, she wouldn't have to face that awkward question.After submitting her resume online, she hadn't expected so many companies to be willing to hire her.Valeria was unaware that all of this was due to the mess created by her former employer.Valeria's boss wanted to ensure she couldn't find a good job, so he started complaining about an employee to colleagues, intentionally or unintentionally portraying Valeria as a bad worker. This drew attention to her from others in the industry.Curiosity killed the cat. Valeria became the cat every

One day, Shane discovered that his wife was secretly looking for a house behind his back!!!Shawn glanced at the houses she had found, all single rooms, showing no intention of taking him along. What was this supposed to mean? Were they going to live separately right after getting married? This angered him; he felt like he needed to grab this little woman and give her a good scolding. But he had no idea where she had gone. If he did, he'd surely educate her properly. Since the last time her father came to cause trouble, Valeria had figured something out. She was in trouble now. If she continued to live with Shane, who knows what might happen? It was better to move out temporarily. She didn't want a divorce; she was already married. How could she leave so easily? She just wanted to get through this time.She knew about the situation at Everhart Group. Even if she had a way, there was no turning back. One million--should she sign a lifelong contract

Shane seems genuinely angry this time, and Valeria really doesn't know how to make him happy. She touches the vegetables, unable to resist looking a few times. Is he really back in the room?She sneaks a peek at Shane and finds him holding a book, reading seriously. However, she can't help but want to laugh because Shane has actually turned the book upside down; he's not really reading, just pretending.Valeria quietly closes the door, then prepares a table full of delicious dishes. She wonders what day it is today; it seems like Shane has even prepared candles. What was he planning to do? She is puzzled, but he is genuinely upset."Shane, dinner is served!" She opens the door, presenting slippers to him.But Shane coldly rejects her service and walks straight out.However, Valeria seems to have noticed something--when did Shane start wearing a ring? She glances at Shane's hand in his pocket. Her heart starts pounding; this seems even more exciting

"Fool, I won't force you. I'll wait until you fall in love with me!" After saying this, Shane peacefully embraced her, and they went to sleep together.However, Valeria didn't sleep well all night. Was this really happening to her? She found it hard to believe.In less than a month, she unexpectedly developed new feelings for another man, and this affection felt unique. She could sense that it was different from her previous experiences.Suddenly, a phrase popped into her mind: ‘In the right time, with the right person, doing the right thing, that's the most beautiful moment.’Meeting Shane was her best time, encountering the right person.Valeria looked back at his sleeping face. She cautiously reached out to touch his face with her fingers, gently outlining his eyebrows, eyes, contours—everything about him seemed perfect. Yet, he seemed to have encountered something less than perfect, always getting into trouble because of her. Burying her head in his chest, she fell asleep peaceful

"Elijah, I've looked after you for so many years. Can't you take care of an old man like me? You don’t even have any cash! It's really disheartening," the old man grumbled, casting a disappointed look at Elijah."Grandpa, if you don't behave, I might spill the beans to Grandma about all the sweets you've been sneaking out to eat. I wonder how she'll react to that."At the mention of his wife, the old man immediately cursed, "Come on, you little rascal, that's just plain mean! If you ever spill the beans later, I swear, I'll beat you to a pulp!"Grandpa escorted him to the door. When he knocked, Shane was busy at home, and Valeria opened the door.Valeria, surprised, greeted them, "Hello... you—"‘Elijah Hunter? Why is he here?’For a moment, Valeria felt a little confused. What on earth is going on?"My granddaughter-in-law, you opened the door for me!" Grandpa Hunter exclaimed with joy, revealing his teeth in a beaming smile. His happiness was evident."Grandpa... are you Shane's gra
