Chapter 661

But if Julian said it outright, he was afraid Aralyn would overthink it. She would wonder if he still didn't fully trust her, if he was just using her, and so on.And if he brought up wanting kids…Aralyn had fallen from the stairs before, suffering severe injuries that left her unable to have children.He was afraid that telling her would upset her.After thinking it through, Julian decided not to bring up the topic.Looking at Aralyn's confused expression, he smiled and asked, "After spending this time together, what do you think of me?""You're amazing!" I praised him, not holding back.Honestly, Julian was the kind of man most people dreamed of—handsome and highly capable of making money.He was serious about work, yet gentle and caring toward his family.Sometimes, just the thought of being with a man like Julian made me feel as if I was being spoiled.I even wondered if it was all just a dream.Julian's expression softened. "Have you ever thought about when you'd want

Chapter 662

I asked, confused, "What's there to be conflicted about?"Alice replied frankly, "The purpose of our company is to help struggling startups find suitable partners."Her social circle had too many people like that. They were those who jumped into entrepreneurship fueled only by passion without any preparation. However, they realized they did not know what they were doing after establishing the company. With Alice and her team's help, these companies could at least go a little further.After hearing that, I was still confused. "You're very clear about what your company does." "The problem now is that we need publicity… Right?" Alice asked hesitantly.I saw nothing wrong with her logic. "That's right."Alice continued, "If we hire a PR firm, it'll definitely be very expensive. Do you think I should set up an in-house PR department?""You could," I agreed. "However, if you do set up a publicity department, you'll need to pay attention to the profit-sharing ratio. You must give

As soon as I finished typing, a knock sounded at the door.Hearing the sound, I quickly got out of bed and opened the door, only to see Julian standing outside. I asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"Julian pulled me into his arms and said excitedly, "I'm so happy!"I stared at Julian's face. At that moment, I truly felt that he loved me far more than I had imagined.Back then, when Shayne agreed to date me, he looked as if he was about to cry. At the time, I didn't know he had someone else in his heart. I merely thought he was moved to tears and even told myself that since Shayne loved me so much, I had to cherish my days with him. But later, I knew that Shayne was regretful that he couldn't be together with his first love.Julian, however, was completely different. His ever-cold face had an undisguised smile because he was about to become my husband.I cupped his face and said, "Thank you for being willing to love me, thank you for genuinely treating me well, and thank you for

Chapter 664

Shayne had just been deceived by Luna in the morning, so he was currently still uneasy. However, upon seeing her pitiful expression, his heart softened.He sighed and said, "Come in."Luna lowered her gaze. She knew that a successful man like Shayne always fell for this kind of act. After all, Shayne was already wealthy, so he didn't lack money. The only thing he lacked at home was a woman who could take care of household matters for him just like Aralyn once did.Luna walked over to the dining table and placed each dish before Shayne. She then sat across from him and said, "Eat."Shayne replied uneasily, "You get easily hungry these days, so go ahead and eat some as well."Luna shook her head. "It's fine.""There's too much food. I can't finish it all by myself. It would go to waste," he explained.Upon hearing that, she got a plate and slowly started eating.As Shayne watched her chew carefully, he was suddenly reminded of their university days. Back then, they were still stu

Chapter 665

It was no wonder Aralyn held on until that point before finally giving up on Shayne.Perhaps in Aralyn's mind, Shayne was still the Shayne from back then—the one who was willing to give up everything for her.Luna gently patted Shayne and said, "It's all in the past now."Shayne's voice was choked with emotion as he said, "Aralyn was foolish too. It took me less than half a year to win her over. The things I did for her were, to put it bluntly, just my way of lashing out after losing you. "But she thought I loved her, so she stayed by my side and treated me well without complaint for years. Why was she so dumb? If only she had realized it sooner and left me earlier. Wouldn't she have suffered less?"The more Shayne spoke, the harder he cried.Luna silently wondered since he was crying so hard right now, what was he doing back then?However, for the sake of keeping her financial support intact, she could only respond softly, "Maybe she realized it early on, but she was willing t

Julian laughed as he spoke, "Otherwise, what if a new suitor appears by your side? Then, as you spend more time with him, you slowly realize that I'm useless aside from making money. Meanwhile, the new suitor is gentle and humorous. Wouldn't that mean I have no chance at all?"His tone was light and teasing.I answered calmly, "As long as you don't betray me, no matter what kind of suitor appears around me, I won't even consider them because you are my only choice."As I spoke, I slowed my cadence. "Because when I was stuck in the depths of despair, you were the one who pulled me out. When others discredited me, you were the one who made me realize that I wasn't as bad as they said. On the contrary, I'm great."You were the one who helped me slowly find myself again and helped me regain my confidence. I thus gradually became better. I am very grateful to you."I leaned against the kitchen doorway as I looked at his side profile and added, "And I love you very much."Julian turn

Chapter 667

So, Julian decided to accept the money for now.After staying silent for a moment, Alice continued, "The venue is still at the hotel, but there's a small auditorium that can accommodate several thousand people. I've gone ahead and rented it.""Several thousand people?" Julian was rather surprised when he heard the number. "Are you sure you're not joking?"Alice's voice became smaller. "I only promoted it in the group, but I didn't think they would tell their friends too. Then, they all transferred the money to me one by one. I couldn't just refuse, could I?"Even though the money wasn't hers, collecting it still made her feel quite happy.Julian was speechless.Alice knew what she did was unkind. However, people had already paid, so she needed to make sure they received the best experience possible.As such, she gathered her courage and said, "First, here's the plan for today. You'll go up first and share the key lessons you've learned from your years of entrepreneurship. Then,

Chapter 668

Julian watched as Alice devoured her food. Worried that I wouldn't be able to eat, he took the initiative to hand me a large plate. "You should eat too. It's okay if she goes hungry, but I'll feel distressed if you do."I accepted the plate he handed me. "Then I'll eat a little more."Julian smiled uncontrollably. "Good."Alice praised the food between bites. "Wow! This breakfast tastes fantastic! May I know which chef made it? Is he looking for a part-time job? Don't worry, I'll pay him very well!"I couldn't hold back my laughter and quickly turned to look at Julian.Julian remained expressionless as he replied, "You can't afford him."Alice asked in disbelief, "Is there really a chef in this world that I can't afford? My family's financial background may not be the best in the country, but they're still considered prestigious. Besides, my company is about to open soon. I'll be making a good amount of money every month! I can afford it, no matter how much he wants!" She spoke

Chapter 669

With that, Alice relaxed against the couch and looked at Julian with a sympathetic expression. Thinking back, she realized that Julian had never intended to participate in this event. It was she who had accepted the money first, using his name for publicity and claiming she would teach everyone what Julian had taught her.Julian, fearing that his reputation would be damaged, had no choice but to step in and take over.Alice sighed and said, "I owe Julian an apology."However, if there was a next time, she would still dare to do it again.I propped my face up with one hand and watched Alice.She continued, "Do you think if I use the same trick next time, Julian would still come over?"Hearing this, Julian glanced at her coldly and said, "Next time, I'll have my legal team sue you. If you don't want to see me in court, you'd better drop that idea after this."His tone was far too serious.Alice snuck a glance at him. She saw that his expression was very serious. It didn't seem

Chapter 670

I quickly retorted, "Don't accuse me unfairly. I never said I don't acknowledge you."Julian asked, "If you acknowledge me, then why won't you marry me?"It seemed like this was something Julian truly cared about. Holding his suit, he walked out of the closet. I stood still, watching him.As expected, when you loved someone, you hope they would acknowledge you. You'd also hope that the both of you can be together openly as husband and wife and spend a lifetime together.Julian noticed that I wasn't following him. He stopped and turned to look at me.I calmly explained, "Willow is coming back tonight."Julian looked a little disappointed. He still couldn't get me to agree.I continued, "The two of us need to seriously ask for Willow's opinion. If she doesn't agree, then we'll continue being a couple. If she does agree, we'll get married."Julian knew I was making the right decision, but he was still a little unwilling to accept it. He hoped I would agree to marry him without consid
