Stella left the cafe, feeling utterly defeated under the weight of countless scornful glares. In an effort to make things seem more authentic, she had even gone as far as falling down the stairs, covering herself in bruises. But in the end, instead of driving a wedge between Haley and Shane, she only succeeded in making herself look worse off.Frustrated, Stella stomped her foot, inadvertently aggravating her injuries and wincing in pain. She rushed to the nearby hospital to have her injuries checked. By the time she left the hospital, darkness had descended.Suddenly, her manger called, and before Stella could speak, she was bombarded with angry accusations."Stella, what on earth did you do? Didn't I tell you to reconcile with Mr. Ford? Why did he suddenly reject all our design proposals?"Do you have any idea how long the company has been waiting for this collaboration opportunity? You've ruined everything!"I don't care what you do, but you better go apologize to Mr. Ford im

Haley was awakened by a burst of phone ringing, furrowing her brows as she struggled to open her eyes. A warm palm gently patted her back. Then, a man's low, hoarse voice came, carrying a hint of gentle reassurance, "Go back to sleep for a bit."In a daze, Haley felt someone covering her ears, blocking out the annoying noise, and she quickly drifted back to sleep. When she woke up again, it was already bright outside.To Haley's surprise, Shane had not gone to work today. When she went downstairs, she found him sitting on the living room sofa. His laptop was on his lap and he was focused on his work."Mr. Ford, aren't you going to work today?" she asked.Hearing Haley's voice, Shane shifted his gaze away from the laptop screen, smiling lightly as he explained, "Mom called this morning, asking us to go to the Ford residence."Haley looked puzzled, "What happened that she had to call so early in the morning?"Shane glanced at her meaningfully, saying, "According to the butler, Stel

Stella frantically signaled to Evelyn, urging her to stop talking further. However, Evelyn felt that she had finally caught Haley's weakness and naturally wanted to give her a good lesson, completely ignoring Stella's hints.When Evelyn rolled up her sleeve, Stella knew it was all over. Haley had video evidence. She felt immense regret at that moment. If she had known Evelyn was so foolish, more likely to cause trouble than solve it, she would not have come to the Ford residence. Now she was stuck in a difficult situation, with Shane's cold gaze adding to the pressure. Her mind went blank, unable to come up with a solution in such a short time.Haley's lips curled slightly as she stepped forward. "Miss Campbell, your ability to turn the tables is truly eye-opening."Mrs. Ford Sr.'s gaze swept back and forth between them, questioning, "What exactly is going on?"Stella quickly defended, "Mrs. Ford Sr., it was my aunt who got it wrong. The injuries on my body were caused by my own

Exiting the Ford residence, Shane instructed the driver to head back to Violet Grove. "I'll drop you off at home first, and then I'll head straight back to the office," he told Haley. Haley did not want him to make an extra trip, so she replied, "I can take a cab back myself. You go straight to the office, don't worry about me." Suddenly, Shane leaned in, wrapping his arms around Haley's delicate waist. A kiss landed unexpectedly, leaving Haley momentarily stunned as she gazed at Shane in confusion. Amused by her bewildered expression, Shane chuckled and affectionately ruffled her fluffy hair. The driver, noticing their affectionate interaction, chimed in, "Madam, can't you see? Mr. Ford just wants to spend more time with you." Haley's heart fluttered slightly, and she glanced at Shane with questioning eyes. "Is that really the case?" Shane pressed his forehead against hers, lightly pecking her rosy lips. "What do you think?" Haley's cheeks instantly flushed crimson. She

Joe's facial muscles twitched, but he remained silent. His current mood was as uncomfortable as swallowing a fly. It was the first time he deeply felt what it meant to shoot oneself in the foot. All that talk about preserving Yvonne's legacy? It was all just excuses, used to deceive Haley, an inexperienced young girl. Even the shares he had were obtained through deception. Unfortunately, he had been too arrogant and forgot that Shane had also spent many years navigating the business world, able to see through his intentions with a single glance. Seeing him silent, Shane smirked sarcastically, "Mr. Carter, if your promises aren't sincere, it's best not to make them lightly, or I might take you at your word." Joe was left speechless, his face flushed red with embarrassment. Haley walked up to him, sneering, "You're not even qualified to mention my mom. If she were still here, would the company fall into your hands? I advise you, if you're not capable, it's best to step down
