Semua Bab Overflowing Affection From My Billionaire Uncle-in-Law Turned Husband: Bab 11 - Bab 20

In the car, Shane's brows furrowed tightly. A heavy atmosphere loomed in the cabin, and even the driver dared not breathe freely. His fingers trembled lightly as they gripped the steering wheel.Although Shane hadn't said a word, the driver could feel that he was definitely angry. What's worse, the culprit behind all this was carefree, intoxicated beyond recognition, only capable of silly laughter. Occasionally, she would smack her lips, seemingly still savoring the sweetness of the alcohol.Shane stared at her side profile for a long time, unable to hold back the question buried in his heart: "Why did you come here to drink?" Meeting Haley at the club today was something he hadn't anticipated. Because of the marriage agreement signed, he had a rare bout of insomnia last night. There was a fire burning in his heart, making him restless and excited, the whole day he was distracted, eager to see Haley, yet afraid to hear her change her mind.It was ironic. In all these years, whethe

The steady sound of footsteps echoing from upstairs interrupted Haley's thoughts. She turned around and looked up to see Shane already dressed and descending the stairs. He wore a black suit, exuding an air of elegance and nobility, with a handsome face tinged with a hint of aloofness, making people hesitant to approach easily. Meeting his deep, dark gaze, Haley's heart inexplicably trembled. She didn't know what had come over her, but as Shane approached, her heartbeat began to uncontrollably quicken. It felt like a mischievous bunny hopping around in her chest.Shane glanced at the piled-up boxes in the living room and said to Haley, "Let's eat first, we'll deal with these later." "Okay." Haley set aside the items she had picked out and asked the butler to take care of them before following Shane to the dining room.Looking at the tall figure in front of her, Haley pursed her lips and mustered up the courage to say, "Mr. Ford, thank you." Shane paused for a moment and turne

Haley pondered for a moment, then went out to ask the butler for Shane's contact information. After all, they were now husband and wife, and it seemed unreasonable not to have even added each other on WhatsApp. Though their marriage was merely a formality, certain things were still expected.When the butler heard Haley's request, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. He first added Haley on WhatsApp, then handed her Shane's contact. Haley's phone chimed with a message, and she opened Shane's profile, finding it unusually clean. The profile picture was plain black, devoid of any color or design. His moments were also empty, fitting his cold and stern demeanor.She clicked to add him as a friend, typing in the note: "Mr. Ford, it's Haley." But feeling it sounded a bit stiff, too distant, she added a cute emoji at the end. After sending the message, she waited for a response, but none came for a long while. Holding her phone, Haley hesitated, unsure if she should send another message.

Dean nodded and turned to leave the office. As he was about to leave, his hand paused on the doorknob, and he turned back to look at Shane. "Mr. Ford, you seem to be in a good mood today?" Shane raised an eyebrow, surprised to be noticed. "Is it that obvious?" Dean nodded earnestly. "Very obvious. It seems like you and Mrs. Ford get along well." Images of Haley blushing beneath him, with her charming and alluring demeanor, flashed through Shane's mind, and he smirked slightly. "It’s alright." Realizing that he was being gossiped about by his subordinate, he quickly wiped the smirk off his face and said sternly, "Aren't you supposed to be working? Do you have nothing better to do?" "No, I'll go right away." Dean chuckled awkwardly, opened the door, and hurried out.Meanwhile, back in his office, the project director was still dazed, unable to snap out of his shock. It wasn't until a colleague called out to him that he finally looked up. "What's wrong?" asked a young woman.

On the other side, while Haley was shopping for clothes with Jenny, her phone rang. She glanced at it and saw that Shane had accepted her friend request. With a smile, she opened the chat box, ready to greet him, only to find the message "Typing..." displayed on the screen continuously. Out of politeness, she decided to wait for Shane to send his message before greeting him, and this wait lasted for several minutes.The repeated appearance of "Typing..." seemed to indicate his hesitation and reluctance. For some reason, Haley suddenly found it amusing. The image of Shane, as she remembered him, being an untouchable, aloof figure came to her mind. She had never seen him in a state of hesitation before. Sending a greeting emoji, a cute and fluffy kitten popping out of a box, she sweetly said, "hello~". Seeing Haley's emoji, Shane couldn't help but chuckle softly, a slight smile appearing on his lips. After a moment's thought, he commented, "Very cute."Haley, upon reading his messa
