However, I managed to calm them down last night.
This morning when I took them to kindergarten, Miya was a bit resistant.
Hunter coaxed her for a long time before she held Darnley’s hand and got in the car.
If I say that yesterday’s events didn’t affect me at all, that would be impossible.
I think, they acted that way because they care about me, right?"
Oliver Turner’s voice turned cold: "Don’t let any of those people get away. Let me know if you need me to step in."
"Don’t worry, when I need you to step in, I won’t let you idle."
After a brief silence, Oliver asked, "What about you? How are you?"
Faye Townsend smiled, "I’m fine, don’t worry about me. I’m quite resilient."
"Don’t try to be strong. Sometimes, men hope that women can rely on them."
Faye scoffed, "Are you trying to teach me how to charm men?"
"If the other person wasn’t Hunter Warren, I might consider teaching you a few tricks."
Faye laughed speechlessly, "What kind of grudge did you two develop and is it necessary?"
"Why wouldn’t it be necessary? It’s the grudge of a stolen wife."
After so long, Oliver Turner could talk about it with a light heart.
"Just speak your mind, anyway Hunter isn’t here to hear it."
"I’m saying this for you to hear. I’m not in Anchester, so you have to protect yourself well.
Don’t let anyone bully you. I can’t stand to see you hurt."
Faye nodded with satisfaction, "Mm."
"I have some work to do soon, so I won’t talk to you for now. Let’s stay in touch over the phone."
"Okay, go ahead with your work."
After hanging up the phone, Faye smiled reassuringly.
Having an extra friend makes the path easier, this saying is true indeed.
Fortunately, the misunderstanding with Oliver Turner was cleared; otherwise, there would be another knot in my heart.
Hunter Warren was leaving the company to handle business. Before getting in the car, his phone buzzed.
He glanced at it, seeing it was Sebastian Sheldon calling, he hung up without answering.
Throughout the journey, Sebastian called many times, but Hunter ignored it and discussed business with his secretary in the car.
He had a lunch engagement and ate out, continuing his errands in the afternoon, returning to the office around four o’clock.
Just as he reached the entrance of the company, Sebastian jumped out from the corner and blocked his way.
"Hunter, why didn’t you answer my calls? I have an urgent matter to discuss with you."
Hunter instinctively stepped back, maintaining distance from her.
"Oh, it’s Miss Sheldon. Our scandal only appeared in the news yesterday, and today you’re boldly seeking me out. Isn’t that inappropriate?"
Hunter’s secretary was right behind him; without his order, he wouldn’t dare leave.
"I can’t care about that now, I have an urgent matter, Hunter, can you please talk to me?"
Hunter looked at her calmly, "I’m very sorry, but I’m busy and don’t have time for your romantic trivialities.
I have some matters to handle, so I won’t chat with you. Goodbye."
After speaking, he deliberately kept his distance and continued walking towards the company.
He’s aware of the boundaries that should be maintained.
This is, after all, in front of the company, who knows how many people are waiting to catch his news.
He wouldn’t give anyone such leverage.
Sebastian turned around in agitation, "Hunter, I’ve been waiting here since 9:30 in the morning. It’s been seven hours.
I just want to talk to you alone for a few minutes. Isn’t that okay either?"
Hunter left without looking back.
Sebastian yelled, "Hunter Warren, I’ve been so sincere to you, how can you treat me ?
Is my heart so worthless? Why do you trample on my sincerity?
I’m here for your good, but how can you... treat me this way."
As she spoke, Sebastian clenched her teeth, fists tight, lowering her gaze and closing her eyes.
Hunter had already stepped into the revolving door, and she watched his resolute departing figure, not giving up in the slightest.
She remembered how Faye had pursued him back then, like a shadow, even when Hunter disliked her, she shamelessly sought him out.
Since Faye could snatch Hunter away like that back then.
Then she can endure all the humiliation and snatch him back in the same way.
With this thought, she was instantly motivated and ran forward quickly.
Unfortunately, she was stopped by the security guards outside the main gate.
She knew force wouldn’t work, so she changed her approach, continuing to wait.
When Hunter left work, he found that Sebastian was still there.
He cast a cold glance at her before looking straight ahead, walking to his car.
Sebastian quickly approached him, "Hunter, I only need a few minutes, please, if it wasn’t important, I wouldn’t have waited for you so long."
Hunter let out a cold snort without speaking.
"Hunter, stop being foolish. Those two kids aren’t yours, they’re Lucas Warren’s."
Hunter suddenly stopped, his eyes glinting with a cold stare at her, "Shut up."
Sebastian felt secretly delighted; he cared, otherwise he wouldn’t have stopped.
"It’s true, years ago Lucas said that Faye would bear his offspring.
Do you really want to be such a fool?
Do you want to raise those kids for Lucas while he reaps the benefits?
Back when we were together, Faye and Lucas had a good relationship.
Do you genuinely believe they didn’t sleep together at that time?"
Hunter turned around and slapped Sebastian across the face.
In the midst of everyone, Sebastian was stunned, looking at Hunter with disbelief.
"I, Hunter Warren, hit a woman for the first time in my life. You’re honored. In the future, keep your mouth shut about things you shouldn’t say."
