Semua Bab Overflowing Affection From My Billionaire Uncle-in-Law Turned Husband: Bab 491 - Bab 500

He knew he had no right to be here and understood that Xena’s downfall was entirely her own doing. However, she was still his wife, and he could not just abandon her.Seeing his silence, Haley sneered, "I guess I was right. But don’t bother asking me to plead for Xena. It’s never going to happen."Shane had gone through so much to stand up for her. If she turned around and begged for Xena’s sake, everything Shane did would become a joke. Why would she slap Shane in the face for someone who meant nothing to her?After a long pause, James finally lowered his head in shame. "I understand. I’m sorry."Haley, I’m sorry."He realized his mistakes. Recently, he had reflected deeply on his actions. Sometimes, it was hard to see clearly when one was in the middle of it all. But stepping back and viewing things from an outsider's perspective made everything much clearer.All the kindness Haley had shown him, which he had taken for granted, now came rushing back like an overwhelming tide.

Haley's heart raced at his words. She struggled to get off Shane, but he held her tightly."Don't move. I won't do anything. I just want to hold you for a while."Hearing the fatigue in his voice, Haley felt a pang of heartache and stopped struggling. Sensing her compliance, Shane smiled softly, burying his face in her shoulder.After what felt like a long time, Haley’s shoulder began to ache, and Shane finally let her go. He grasped Haley's slender waist and gently placed her on the nearby sofa.He then let out a contented sigh and said, "Fully recharged."Haley couldn't help but laugh. "I guess I am useful after all."Shane looked at her, his eyes sparkling. "Your presence alone is invaluable to me. You're my treasure, Haley, my one-of-a-kind treasure I want to cherish forever."Haley's heart skipped a beat at Shane's sincere words. She playfully glared at him. "Get back to work. Jenny recommended a great restaurant, so let’s go there once you're done.""Okay." Shane nodded,

She quickly pulled back, clutching her wildly beating heart, avoiding his gaze. Satisfied with the kiss from his beloved, Shane sat back, a smile lingering on his face throughout the meal....Meanwhile, Zoe lay weakly on the hotel bed, barely covered. Her well-maintained, fair skin was now marked with bruises. She glanced at Mr. Stone, who was leaning over her with a belt in his hand. "Mr. Stone, no more... please..." Zoe pleaded, looking up at him with fear in her eyes.Mr. Stone looked down at her, a satisfied smile on his face. "No wonder Joe likes you so much. Now I understand his pleasure."Indeed, a married woman like Zoe offered a different kind of pleasure compared to inexperienced young girls. Although her skin and tightness could not compare to younger women, her skills more than made up for it. Zoe knew exactly how to please a man, and this encounter had left Mr. Stone very satisfied.Hiding her disgust, Zoe reached out. Wrapping her arms around his neck, she swe

"Miss Haley, Morning Dew Design Co. chose to collaborate with JY entirely because of you. But now, I’m afraid we can no longer proceed with our cooperation."Haley hurried to explain, "This is just a misunderstanding…"However, she was cut off by a scoff. "A misunderstanding? The design drafts you showed me are now all over another company’s official account. Even if it's a misunderstanding, people will believe you are the plagiarizers."Online opinion was a sharp weapon that could kill without a trace. People on the internet would only believe what they saw. Unless there was solid evidence to turn the tide, there was no way to recover.Morning Dew Design Co. could not risk its reputation for a single collaboration. Haley understood that as a businesswoman, Luna's decision was the right one, but it still left her feeling bitter. She bit her lip and said, "I understand. I will find the culprit and prove that JY is worthy of collaborating with Morning Dew Design Co."After hanging

Besides that, Sue had financial dealings with William. Haley looked at the bank account transaction records and pursed her lips. The timing coincided precisely with when the video of her and William was posted online. Even the recent design leak was her doing.No wonder Haley had often caught a complicated look in Sue's eyes. No wonder Sue seemed happier than she was when Xena was taken into custody.It all made sense now, fitting together like pieces of a puzzle.Taking a deep breath, Haley dialed Shane's number. "Mr. Ford, can you find me a top-notch hacker? The sooner, the better."Shane did not ask any questions, simply saying, "Alright."A mere ten minutes later, Dean arrived at JY.Haley looked at him in surprise. "Just you?"Dean touched his face and asked, "Why? It seems like you’re disappointed, madam?"Haley chuckled. "Asking you to find a top-notch hacker on such short notice is indeed a bit demanding."Dean suddenly smiled, looking somewhat proud. "It’s not d
