Just then, a playful voice came from behind, "Looks like we came at the wrong time, huh?"Sorry to interrupt, really sorry! Should we go first?" Shane and Haley turned around to see a red luxury car parked by the roadside. Henry was sitting in the driver's seat with one hand on the steering wheel and the other supporting his chin. His eyes were fixed on them, seemingly still wanting more. In the passenger seat, Zac remained expressionless as ever, though there was a slight uptick at the corners of his mouth. If one did not look closely, it would not be noticeable at all. Haley could not help but blush and quickly pushed Shane away. Covering her face, she wished she could find a hole to hide in. When did these two arrive? How come she didn't hear a thing? Seeing what Haley was thinking, Henry said, "You two were so focused on kissing just now. I regret not taking out my phone and capturing the moment. Tsk tsk tsk..." Seeing his regretful expression, Shane's temples throbbed
Although Henry and Zac had long known that Shane harbored feelings for Haley, Haley seemed to have few merits other than her beautiful appearance in their eyes. The most memorable aspect about her was always trailing behind James. But now, they could not help but marvel at Shane's discerning eye. After Henry finished his praise, he deliberately turned to Zac and said, "Right, isn't that so, Zac?" Zac glanced at Haley and nodded lightly. Henry looked at him with disdain and said, "Would you die if you said one more word?" "Yes." Henry replied, "Forget it, I won't talk to this mute!"Otherwise, he would be infuriated. At this moment, there was a cautious knock on the door from outside. Everyone turned to look, and they saw the door to the private room slowly open a crack, and then Jenny cautiously stuck half of her head out. When she saw Haley, her eyes lit up. She quickly pushed the door open and rushed towards Haley. "Haley, I've missed you so much!" Haley was embraced
Jenny glanced at William and her cheeks flushed even redder. "Actually, I couldn't believe it myself. I didn't sleep all night last night, feeling like I was dreaming." Since the last time she got hurt, she had been keeping in touch with William. Over time, they grew closer and their feelings for each other kept growing. Finally, last night, she asked William out and confessed her feelings to him. She had never dared to hope before, considering how outstanding William was. She felt she was not good enough for him. But unexpectedly, he actually agreed! She could not describe the shock that moment brought her, and then they just ended up together like that. Listening to Jenny, Haley also found it somewhat hard to believe.But seeing Jenny so happy, she genuinely wanted to bless her from the bottom of her heart. "Anyway, I'm glad you found your happiness." Jenny covered her cheeks, shyly nodding. "Yes, I definitely will!" She looked every bit like a young girl in love. While th
Jenny suddenly looked up, furrowing her brows as she asked, "Mr. Henry, do you know my boyfriend?"Henry denied without a second thought, "How could that be? Personally, I just have a strong sense of justice. Can't stand those who put on airs."Jenny felt embarrassed, unsure of what to say for a moment.Haley lightly coughed twice, softly warning, "Henry, be polite in your speech. After all, he's Jenny's boyfriend.""Haley, you're scolding me!" Henry suddenly looked aggrieved."Alright, for the sake of Haley, I won't argue with him for now!"He was so magnanimous, unlike someone like William.In the restroom, Shane stood in front of the sink washing his hands when William suddenly walked in, slowing to a stop behind him.Shane heard the footsteps and slowly looked up.Through the mirror in front of him, he saw William clearly. "Is there something?"Hearing his indifferent tone, William's lips curled imperceptibly, "Long time no see, bro."Hearing this address, Shane's eyebro
Seeing them chatting so warmly, Shane became displeased and immediately wrapped his arm around Haley's shoulder, pulling her into his embrace."My wife only needs me for help. You guys can go wherever you want."Henry, being supported by Zac, could not help but tease, "Oh, so possessive already? Not to be rude, but bro, you've got quite the possessive streak. Only Haley can handle it."Embarrassed by being teased in front of everyone, Haley's cheeks flushed slightly.Shane, however, remained composed and leaned down to give Haley a peck on the cheek. "Indeed, we're naturally meant to be together. No matter which way you look at it, we're the perfect match."Seeing Shane being all lovey-dovey as if no one else was around, everyone made sour faces.Henry clutched his heart dramatically, pretending to be heartbroken. "Oh, pity me, this single guy came to celebrate with you guys, only to be filled with jealousy. It's just not fair!"Zac's eyes twinkled with amusement as he remarked,
"Mrs. Ford, why are you so adorable?" Adorable enough for him to want to take a bite.Haley blinked in confusion, not understanding why he suddenly kissed her again.Seeing her dazed expression, the smile at the corner of Shane's lips deepened. He reached out to ruffle her hair and then took her hand, leading her to the car. "Let's go back home."Half an hour later, the car arrived at Violet Grove.The butler hurried out to greet them, his expression somewhat grim. "Sir, Madam, James has brought Xena here. He says he wants to come to seek your forgiveness.""They actually have the nerve to show up at our doorstep," Shane sneered.The butler sighed. "I told them you weren't at home and asked them to leave, but no matter what I said, they refused to go. They insisted on waiting for you to come back."He had been a butler for many years, but he had never encountered such shameless people. Especially Xena, if she came to apologize, she should at least have an apologetic attitude
Haley also glanced at James, but her gaze was ice-cold, as if she was looking at a stranger.James felt uneasy, sensing that things should not be like this. Before, Haley always followed him closely. Everyone said she loved him deeply, even willing to be his backup. But at some point, everything changed.Seeing James staring at her with pity and regret, Haley frowned, feeling repulsed. "James, please get to the point quickly. My husband and I are tired after a long day and want to rest early," she said, while taking the initiative to embrace Shane's arm.Shane, who had been displeased by James's gaze, felt the gloom dissipate instantly when Haley leaned in. He reached out, pulling Haley into his embrace, casting a cold gaze at James.It was as if he was silently asserting his authority, telling James, "Stop looking. She's mine."James suppressed the bitterness in his heart and explained his intentions, "Uncle, I've heard about the school incident. It's all a misunderstanding. Xen
Xena stood frozen in place, staring at her hand that had not even made contact yet, wearing an expression of disbelief. When did Haley become so skilled at acting? Her hand clearly had not touched her yet! Was she trying to set her up? Definitely! She looked on with a sense of grievance, her eyes reddening with tears, and turned to James for help. "James, you saw it just now, I really didn't touch her, she's deliberately framing me."James glanced at Haley, who was snuggled up in Zac's arms like a fragile bird, and remained silent. Haley slowly lifted her face from Shane's embrace, with not a hint of sadness in her eyes."Xena, being falsely accused doesn't feel good, does it? Then you should know, getting expelled is already the lightest punishment for you."Xena's expression stiffened, and James was at a loss for words. Shane checked the time, seeing it was almost eleven, and spoke up. "It's late, you can leave now."Xena and James exchanged a glance but remained rooted to
