Zach replied dejectedly, "No. Luna stopped caring about me after Mom and Dad got divorced, and she succeeded in claiming her spot. "Besides, every time Dad isn't home, she'll bully me whenever she sees me at the house. Sometimes Dad even takes her side, acting as her accomplice and allowing her to bully me."Zach forced a smile onto his face. "I later moved to Grandma Charlotte's house and stayed with her for a while, but she loved the baby Luna is carrying more. So, I moved out and started living on my own."Linda was so heartbroken that tears fell down her face. "Is there something wrong with Shayne's brain? Choosing a woman over his son?"Zach added, "Yeah, he doesn't even give me living expenses anymore."Lina quickly pulled Zach toward her bedroom. "I have money. I'll give you some.""There's no need to do so!" Zach refused without hesitation. "Mom saved up a large sum of money for me before the divorce. As long as I don't pick up any bad habits, it's enough for me to live

I looked at the box before me and asked, "What's inside?"Lilia smiled and replied, "A gold bracelet. Open it and see if you like it."I took the box and opened it.I could tell that the gold bracelet wasn't cheap at the first glance.I then closed the box. "I can't take something so expensive. Why don't you give it to Willow? After all, she's your daughter's child."Lilia replied without hesitation. "But we have made a decision."I smiled and said, "Once you've given it to me, it's mine. I can give it to whoever I want, and you can't say anything about it."Gabriel and Lilia were stunned. They clearly did not expect me to say that. The two of them exchanged a look.Gabriel sighed and said, "Since you've decided, we won't force you.""Alright," I said, handing the box to Willow. "This is a very valuable gift from your grandparents. You must take good care of it."Willow froze, looking down at herself and then at the box in front of her. Her little head worked quickly, and aft

The breeze on the balcony carried a hint of chill, brushing against the skin in an incredibly pleasant way.I leaned on the railing, gazing at the distant streetlights. My eyes held an indescribable tenderness.Julian turned to look at me and said, "Willow's grandparents really like you too.""That's just because they care about Willow," I replied. I didn't think my charm was that great. I turned my head to meet Julian's gaze and just so happened to catch his admiring gaze.I raised my hand and gently caressed his cheek. "You're different. You truly love me."Yes," Julian didn't deny it. "The first time I saw you was at the hospital. Willow pointed at you and said you were Zach's mom. At the time, you seemed so fragile, yet gentle and beautiful. "The next time I saw you, you had fallen down the stairs and miscarried. Back then, you were pale and lying in a pool of blood. Only then did I realize how pitiful you were to be bullied to such an extent."As we spent more time toget

Shayne could understand what I meant. "No.""So, there's no reason for me to tolerate her," I replied. I knew better than anyone else that Luna could only keep Shayne by using the child, so she would never let anything happen to it."Also, you'd better keep your woman away from me. Otherwise, the next time my retaliation won't be as simple as just telling the truth."With that, I hung up the phone. Julian could tell that my mood was off, so he held my hand and asked, "Shayne called?""Yeah," I replied. I took a deep breath and added, "I blocked his number, but he borrowed a phone and called me."Julian scoffed. "He's really going all out just to defend Luna."As soon as he finished speaking, his phone rang.He looked at the phone. It was Shayne.Since Shayne was his business partner, Julian couldn't refuse the call, so he answered it. "Mr. Pearce, what's the matter?"Shayne knew that he shouldn't contact Julian, but he wasn't able to convince Aralyn. To solve the issue of

Only at this moment did Julian finally gain a clearer understanding of Luna. She was very good at taking advantage of everyone around her, and these people would willingly stand up for her.Julian suddenly realized he shouldn't underestimate her. Luna hadn't successfully attached herself to Julian yet. If Shayne continued to ignore her, she'd face problems supporting herself in the future.Her tone became slightly stiff. "Mr. Hughes, you're a big-shot CEO, so you probably wouldn't tattle to others over such trivial matters, right?"Julian responded nonchalantly, "I can just casually mention it during work."Luna fell silent.Julian had no intention of arguing with her, so he hung up.Luna stared at her phone screen. She couldn't understand it. Didn't men like women who were weaker? Why didn't Julian take the bait?She was very dissatisfied but unwilling to give up. Luna thought about changing the subject to start another conversation with Julian, but her calls wouldn't go thro
