Haley’s tone was cold as she gazed down at him. "I'm rushing. Choose between settling privately or calling the police and going through insurance.” The man with the ponytail was in excruciating pain and mortified astonishment as he attempted to stand. He gestured to Haley. "You dare toss me? Are you aware of my father's identity?” Once more, he held up his hand menacingly. Haley’s eyes sparked with a keen chill. She grabbed his wrist, changed her position, reduced her center of gravity, contorted her body, and used force. An over-the-shoulder toss that is strong and clean. With a yell of agony and dust flying, the ponytailed man was slammed hard to the ground once more like a cannonball. Calm and collected, Haley stood with her arms folded, gazing down at the messy man on the floor. "I'm not feeling well today. I will still beat you up if you mess with me, even if your father is president." These two satisfying tosses were the culmination of four years of pent-up rage. She had

"I've never been in a romantic relationship either," Rhett teasingly laughed. “What makes that so odd?” Haley suddenly raised her head and met his intense gaze. "You... you've been single with such a handsome face?" she said, her mouth slightly parted in shock. “That is just a waste of a valuable resource.” Rhett laughed softly, his voice clean, deep, and unhurried. “Well.. I stay alone after the person i love got married to another man.” Rhett said again. Haley felt a sharp jolt in her heart. Is there such unwavering love and devotion in this world? He voluntarily stays alone just because the person he loved got married to someone else? "Then... what if she never gets divorced? For the rest of your life, would you actually never date anyone?” She spoke in a dry tone. With a determined tone, Rhett’s gaze seemed to cut through the oncoming cars. "No. I am aware that a man cannot make her happy. I'm awaiting her release." Haley was at a loss for words. Her chest was f

With a sardonic laugh, Archie stopped asking. He gave Haley the filled-out prescription and told her to pick up the herbs from the pharmacy. Haley nodded in agreement. A hand slipped under her knees as she was about to get up. She was gently raised into the man's arms the following instant. Archie was clearly taken aback by the personal gesture. "I... I can walk myself." No other man has ever carried Haley in this manner. She lowered her head awkwardly and blushed, her heart pounding. “You heard what Dr. Gibson said, didn't you? You ought to move around less.” Rhett’s voice was soft but unassuming. With a contemplative glance at him, Archie had carefully opened the door. He opened his mouth to speak, but Rhett’s stare stopped him. Haley was carried out by Rhett. She could smell the subtle cedar scent on him as she nestled in his embrace. He brought her over to the pharmacy. As Haley was walking through the main waiting area, she heard a familiar conversational voice say, "

Vance couldn't tell if she was being brave or calm as he stared at her. He tightened his hold on Haley’s shoulders. "How precisely do you intend to handle them? Tell me right away. I'm going to lose my mind from concern if you continue to skirt the issue." Haley’s face briefly flashed a melancholy smile. "You are aware of the events of four years ago. I gave up my inheritance rights to marry Kieran and didn't think twice about going on a two-week hunger strike against my grandfather in order to be with him. My grandfather declined to assist me after the marriage. I secretly acquired loan shark money behind his back to help him launch his firm, almost breaking my legs in the process." "Of course I know!" Vance angrily exclaimed. "I wanted to kill him when you revealed that he had been secretly married to Lydia for a full four years! He is an absolute jerk! He could have let you leave if he didn't love you, but he insisted on playing both sides, which led to this situation." "That's

Avoiding her eyes, Kieran’s face turned scarlet. "Obviously not. Please, honey. This afternoon, I didn't even go outside. My parents attest to my qualifications.” Once more, the same absurd justification. Haley gave a small, cold smile. "Oh, take a look at you. Why do you feel so anxious?” She took out a tissue and used it to gently clean his temple. Kieran grabbed her suddenly into his arms, still trembling. "I thought you might think too much. I have no doubts about my affection for you. We decided to age together. You understand that you can never doubt me.” Sinking back into the armchair, Haley jerked as though she had been shocked. "Calm down. Remember what I told you earlier?” Kieran felt his heart skip a beat. She turned to face him and fixed him with a steady gaze. She lifted her right hand, joined two fingers, and made a tiny airborne cutting motion. Kieran felt a shiver run up his spine. He concealed his crouch out of habit. He patted her forehead and faked a st
