Chapter 731

Sharon could only nod in response before returning to her room. Once she was behind her closed door, she leaned against it, with her hands clenched into tight fists as she ground her teeth.She couldn't believe that Elias would spend the whole day with Alice. Sharon was convinced that Alice was scheming to get her claws into Elias.What really grated on Sharon's nerves was that Mitch had told her that Elias was exhausted when he returned. She couldn't understand how Elias could be so tired, and her mind immediately went to the worst possible scenario.She figured that Alice must have seduced Elias into bed for a marathon session. Otherwise, how could someone with his stamina possibly be tired?The more Sharon thought about it, the harder she clenched her jaw until her teeth nearly cracked. She stomped her foot hard against the floor in frustration.…At Macie's place, Alice finished editing the draft on her social media post when she received the photos from Elias. She scrolled t

Xavier hadn't planned on asking, but after seeing Alice's Instagram post, he couldn't resist sending a message to Sean.Sean replied almost immediately, "Which one are you asking about?"Xavier stared at the screen in disbelief. He wondered if the Hart family frequently arranged blind dates for Alice. Then, he clarified that he was referring to the man who had gone shopping with her that day. Sean paused when he read that. He was surprised to learn that his sister had run into Xavier that day and hadn't mentioned it. Moreover, why would Xavier assume that Elias was another blind date setup?Technically, he was supposed to be, but they hadn't even started the whole courtship process yet. Alice had shut it down at the dinner table that night, saying that there wasn't even the slightest possibility between them.Sean replied, "Alice addressed him as Mr. Hale, right? How many people with that last name could there be? He's Elias Hale, Sharon's brother, and the CEO of Lyrex Global. Yo

"Mom, it's not what you think, so stop getting lost in your own imagination," Sean said.When Diana heard that Alice had been framed and injured her ankle, she frowned and asked, "Why didn't you tell me right away that she hurt her ankle? How is she doing now?""She's fine. It was just a sprain, and she's recovered well from resting. She can walk normally now," he replied. He went on, "She's staying at Macie's place, and Macie has been making sure that she eats nutritious meals every day to help her recover faster. You don't need to worry about it."Diana didn't respond to that.Sean added, "I didn't tell you because I wasn't planning to mention it to you and Dad. Elias suggested that we handle this privately. Sharon apologized, and he took Alice shopping today to make up for what happened.""Mom, it's enough that you know about it now. There's no need to mention it to Elias' parents. Let's try not to damage the relationship between our families," he reminded his mother.Diana

Elias nodded, then he and Sharon ate breakfast together. As they finished eating, she brought up something that had been on her mind. She wanted to donate to the orphanage that had taken her in all those years ago."Without that orphanage, I wouldn't be who I am today," she said earnestly. "Now that I've found my family again, I can't forget where I came from, so I need to give back to them."He felt a warm sense of pride when he heard that, though he had to tell her, "You don't need to worry about that. I've already arranged for donations to the orphanage."Sharon was deep in thought after that."I know you did that for me, but I want to contribute something myself, even if it's with money you gave me." She looked at him hopefully. "Since you're handling the building renovations, what if I donate some picture books for the children? What do you think?"Elias thought it was a fantastic idea. After all, it was something his sister felt passionate about, so he nodded in approval.

Chapter 735

In the CEO's office of Fowler Group, located at the top floor of the building, Edward stood by the window with his coffee, gazing out at the cityscape. His expression was distant, lost in thought.Nathan walked in and, seeing Edward's silhouette against the window, said, "Mr. Fowler, you've been pushing yourself pretty hard lately. Maybe it's time to get some proper rest."Edward hadn't been home since last Thursday. He had been sleeping in the company's executive suite instead. Even on weekends, he'd been working, meeting with other CEOs, and discussing projects over golf rounds. Nathan could sense that something had changed in him, though he couldn't quite put his finger on what.Edward didn't respond to his concern. He remained lost in thought for several more moments before finally asking, "Has there been any suspicious activity around Macie's apartment complex lately?""None whatsoever. The security team's been running 24-hour patrols, and there haven't been any unauthorized

"Got it. Send me the restaurant location," Alice texted her brother with resigned numbness.Sean sent her the time and address. Seeing how urgent things looked, she realized that she'd need to leave right away to get her hair done and change her clothes. She didn't have a choice. If she didn't dress up appropriately, Diana would assume that she wasn't taking it seriously and would nag at her endlessly. But if Alice made a genuine effort with the blind date and then said they weren't compatible, her mother would have nothing to complain about. So, she grabbed her handbag and headed out. At the same time, upstairs in the CEO's office, Sean also got up and reached for his jacket and car keys. As he passed his assistant's office, he instructed, "I'm leaving early today for personal matters. Just put any documents on my desk."The assistant nodded in response.After he left, the staff exchanged surprised glances. They couldn't believe that their workaholic boss was leaving on time

Chapter 737

"Macie, who are you talking to?" Julian asked from the other end of the phone. "You're downstairs, right? I'm coming down now. Just wait for me.""Julian, you—" Before Macie could finish her sentence, he had already hung up the call."Get in," Sean said directly.Macie hesitated for half a second, then decided to check her phone first. Alice hadn't sent her any messages. So, she wondered whose car she should get into."What are you waiting for? Do you think I'm going to abduct you or something?" Sean raised an eyebrow when he saw her just standing there, frozen."Well, Julian just called saying that he'd give me a ride too…" Macie began.Between Sean and Julian, she honestly didn't want to ride with either of them. But if she had to choose, she'd rather go with Julian.After all, Sean liked to tease her, and his car was way too flashy. At that moment, everyone passing by was staring at them. If someone from the company happened to see her, the rumors would spread like wildfire t

Macie immediately pulled out her phone, ready to ask Alice for clarification. Sean spotted it out of the corner of his eye and, without hesitation, reached over and snatched it from her hand."Mr. Hart, what are you doing?" Macie looked at him in confusion. Sean casually slipped her phone straight into his pocket. Perplexed, she wondered why he would take her phone.Julian saw the whole thing and instantly knew that Sean was feeling guilty and that Alice hadn't asked him to pick Macie up. Hence, he fished out his phone and called Alice on the spot, putting the call on speaker.Sean panicked inwardly. He glanced between the rearview mirror and the road ahead, attempting to figure out how to make a quick exit. Right then, Alice's voice came through the line. "What's up, Julian? Have you sent Macie home?""No, I haven't," Julian answered. Before she could question him, he added, "Your older brother came to pick her up."Alice was caught off guard. At that moment, she was still in the

"Mr. Hart, why are you asking Macie? If you've got the guts, open the door!" Julian demanded, noticing the troubled look on Macie's face.However, Sean didn't budge. In fact, he had already locked his car doors. Unless Macie climbed out, there was no way she could get out on her own.Just as Macie was still trying to figure out how to respond, things somehow went from bad to worse. Two more cars drove out of the parking lot—one belonging to her direct supervisor, Palmer, and the other to another department head. Initially, neither of them noticed Sean because his sports car had a low chassis, so it was hidden from their view. All they saw was Julian's car, so they casually turned to greet him.However, through three layers of tinted windows, they spotted Macie. And sitting next to her in the driver's seat of a flashy, top-of-the-line sports car was none other than Sean."Good evening, Mr. Hart," Palmer and the other manager greeted him hurriedly. Their gazes darted between Macie

Chapter 740

Sean was about to figure out how to switch lanes and get around Julian's car when a loud honk blared from the parking lot exit. Right then, the car behind him started honking as well.Sean looked at Julian and smiled. "Mr. Atkins, are you sure you're not going to move? You really might get detained for obstructing traffic."Julian looked to the side and then behind him. The other cars were closing in. He had no choice but to drive away. Once the road cleared, Sean smirked and said, "It looks like you won't need to take the subway after all." Macie was at a loss for words. Sean pulled his car out of the parking lot, and sure enough, Julian quickly changed lanes and followed right behind them. But Sean paid him no attention. He turned to Macie and asked, "So, what do you want for dinner?"Macie was caught off guard. Was he inviting her to dinner? She hurriedly responded, "I don't want to trouble you. Please just drop me off outside my neighborhood…""But I want to have dinner,"
