Semua Bab Overflowing Affection From My Billionaire Uncle-in-Law Turned Husband: Bab 871 - Bab 880

Charles nervously touched his nose. "Let me explain...""Go on, you'd better explain yourself clearly, or don’t blame me for being harsh!" Haley sat down on the sofa, crossing her arms and glaring at him. She was giving off the vibe that if he dared lie, she would not hesitate to deal with him.Charles had no choice but to repeat what he had just said. "I really didn’t mean to lose contact. The mountain area was so remote that there was no signal. I had no choice."Haley snorted. "Stop making excuses. If you really wanted to contact us, you’d find a way, no matter what."Charles wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and helplessly glanced at Shane. These two were definitely a couple! They even thought alike."It’s true. There was no communication equipment at all. They live almost entirely like it’s the old days. I had no way to reach anyone."Haley gave him a stern look. "So, did you find the person you were looking for? You’ve been there so long, and you didn’t even find them?

Charlotte opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end, not a single word came out. She lowered her head, her ears turning a deep shade of red, lost in her thoughts.But Zac was not going to let her off so easily. "You called me earlier today, saying you were in pain and asking if I could come be with you. Are you backing out now?"Charlotte bit her lip, still silent, unsure of what to say.It was true that she had called Zac, pleading for him to return, but things hadn’t gone the way she expected.She had always seen Zac as someone she could rely on. Aside from her mother, Zac was the only one who had ever treated her kindly. At the time, she didn’t even know what had come over her, daring to ask Zac to come back because she needed him.What she never expected was that Zac would actually return just because of her request.Charlotte felt like something had hit her heart hard, sending ripples through her emotions.Then, somehow, things had escalated, with Zac becom

Haley sat up in bed and wrapped her arms around Shane again, nuzzling him softly. "Of course, you’re more important than barbeque."As if to prove her point, she planted a quick kiss on Shane’s cheek without hesitation.Shane wasted no time pulling her into his embrace, his arms around her waist, holding her tightly, not allowing her to slip away.Haley smiled up at him and kissed him again. "Is that enough?""Not enough," Shane murmured as he leaned in closer, capturing her soft, rosy lips in a kiss.Haley wrapped her arms around Shane’s neck, timidly responding to his kiss.Her willingness was like fuel to Shane’s fire, and the kiss grew hotter, more intense.Haley slowly closed her eyes, and before long, it felt like the air was being stolen from her lungs bit by bit.She could hardly catch her breath.Haley gently pushed against Shane’s solid chest, and sensing her need, he pulled back just slightly.His gaze lingered on her glistening lips, his eyes darker than before.

Haley paused for a moment, then smiled sweetly and said, "Mr. Ford, make sure you eat more. You've worked so hard too."Pregnancy was tough, but caring for someone who was pregnant wasn't easy either. Shane had been constantly busy lately, moving a lot of his work home just to be there for her. Important meetings had been shifted to online video calls, and documents were now being delivered by Dean, which wasn’t always convenient. Yet, Shane never once complained. He actually seemed to enjoy it.Shane smiled, feeling a warmth he couldn’t quite describe. "It’s not hard at all. You’ve been so considerate that taking care of you hasn’t been much work."Haley smiled and nodded, then, in a sneaky move, tossed a piece of tender spicy beef into the grill. She thought she was being subtle, even glancing away as if nothing had happened.But Shane had seen it all."You can’t eat that. It’s too spicy and not good for you," Shane said sternly.Haley pouted, her lips curling in a slight fro

Haley touched her now rounder face and couldn’t help but pout. "No way, I’ve definitely gained weight. Look, it’s all soft and squishy." Mrs. Ford Sr. reached out and gently pinched Haley’s cheek, indeed noticing the extra softness. But as an elder, she loved seeing her younger family members looking healthy and well-fed."It’s still not enough. You need to take better care of yourself. You're pregnant, so you need to keep up with your nutrition to make sure the baby grows strong and healthy."Haley smiled and nodded. "Alright, alright, I’ll make sure of it. You don’t need to worry so much about me, Mom. Shane’s been taking good care of me."Mrs. Ford Sr. let out a light snort, dismissing the idea. "A grown man, no matter how caring, can only do so much. Make sure the chef prepares more nutritious meals. Your health is the top priority now."Haley nodded and handed Mrs. Ford Sr. an insulated container she brought. "This is a special remedy my dad prepared for you. I had it brewed
