All Chapters of The Reclaimed Rose: Chapter 171 - Chapter 180

"Hmm?" Shayne asked absentmindedly.Luna had noticed Shayne's recent change in behavior. She could somewhat sense Shayne's wish to gradually distance himself from her until they became strangers once more.However, she hadn't gotten enough money from him yet, so she naturally couldn't allow that to happen.Luna needed him to dispel any thoughts of leaving her. Her tone was nostalgic as she said, "This park has been here since we were in college."Shayne felt as if the weight on his chest had been momentarily lifted when he recalled those youthful and naive days.Shayne smiled faintly and replied, "Yeah, back then, we were just broke students with no money for outings, so everyone always came to the park."Seeing him respond well to her statement, Luna continued, "Every time we walked side by side, our friends would tease us. They'd say we were a match made in heaven, so we should be together. They even worked hard to pair us together."Luna tilted her head back to look at the sk

"Willow, I know you love me and care about my health. But for me, helping you learn is like resting. Do you understand? So, you don't need to worry about me being too tired. I'm not that fragile," I said to Willow.She still didn't believe me. "Really?"I nodded. "Of course."Only then did she feel reassured. She firmly took my hand and pulled me into the yard to jog with her.Meanwhile, Julian followed us. His usually cold eyes softened with a hint of a smile....After finishing training and cleaning up, we took Willow to kindergarten.She entered the kindergarten but didn't immediately head straight toward the classroom building. Instead, she stood at the entrance, seemingly waiting for someone.About three or four minutes later, a girl with pigtails got out of the car.Willow immediately ran over to her.The two little girls held hands and skipped around. The girl was very chatty and talked to Willow non-stop.Willow nodded and shook her head in response.Seeing that Wi

Alice quietly retorted, "But my friends have already agreed to invest in my project. They'll definitely be upset if I suddenly tell them I need to work for a few months."That meant that she didn't want to do as I suggested.I didn't plan on insisting that she had to listen to me. "If you're unwilling to delay the project and still want to get the funding while entering the industry directly, then that's an option. However, when issues arise, you'll need to gather with your friends and discuss how to resolve them."Besides, one of the biggest pitfalls in starting a business was having too many decision-makers and unclear divisions of authority. I didn't plan to directly tell her that. She would realize this herself when she started getting into disputes with her friends because of work."Is that so?" she asked, somewhat confused."That's right," I replied. I then provided an example. "For instance, you're already facing problems now and came to me for help. I can help you, of

Was Shayne really such an unqualified husband? When he realized this, a piercing pain spread through his chest. He felt suffocated.He didn't understand why he felt that way. He didn't love Aralyn, right? So, why was he in so much pain?"Shayne?" Spencer had rushed over the moment he received Shayne's message.He sat down across from Shayne. Looking at Shayne, who had his head lowered, he asked with concern, "Are you okay?""I'm fine." Shayne reigned his emotions before raising his head."I need to ask you a very important question.""Go ahead," Spencer replied casually.Shayne voiced the question that had been troubling him. "Everyone says I like Luna, but if that's true, why can't I get past being just friends with her? I feel uncomfortable when I take it a step further and there's physical contact.""That's because..." Spencer knew the truth—Shayne didn't love Luna. But now that Aralyn had a new life, reconciling with Shayne was impossible. If Shayne knew he truly loved Ar

Zach didn't argue. He merely said, "But if I don't see Mom, it feels like my heart is missing a piece. It feels empty…"The driver sighed."You need to take me to Grandma's house tonight." Zach was afraid he might forget to tell him later, so he took the initiative and told him now.The driver didn't understand. "Why?""Think about it—Mason bullied Willow, and I helped her." As Zach explained himself, he momentarily forgot to cry."I've wronged Mason, so he'll definitely complain to his mom. Wouldn't I be walking right into the lion's den if I went home?"The driver nodded thoughtfully. "That's true."…Just as Zach predicted, Mason only dared to speak up once he got home. He immediately told Luna what had happened at kindergarten.Luna noticed that Mason seemed off on her way home, but she didn't know the reason at the time. Upon hearing Mason's words, she instantly became furious.Someone dared to bully her son? Did they think she was dead?Her face darkened. She decided t
