Chapter 3030
Although Hayden was already in his twenties, he always felt like a child when facing his mother. Hayden took a deep breath and said, "Mom, you don't need to pack my luggage. I have everything I need here." "Oh, I see. If you need anything, just have someone deliver it." Avery's tone softened. "Hayden, on a more serious note, you two should live together if Shelly is okay with it. Only by spending time together day and night can you know if you and her are compatible. If you two get along well, you can bring Aiden over. It would be wonderful to live as a family of three!" Hayden furrowed his brow slightly. "Mom, don't you like Aiden anymore?" "Of course, I like him, but Aiden is ultimately your child. If you establish a new family, it's only natural to have him with you," Avery explained. "If we want to see Aiden, we can always go and visit, or you can bring him over to visit us when you have time. Our houses are so close to one another, so there won't be a problem." Avery did

"Alright, then."Hayden did not mention this to Shelly, but Shelly had overheard his conversation with Mrs. Taylor. "Where will this event take place?" Shelly walked over with Audrey in her arms. "Won't it be weird for me to participate in your company's event?" Before Hayden could respond, Mrs. Taylor said, "What's weird about it? It's probably a trip. Since Hayden wants you there, you should go!" Shelly blushed and wondered why her mother's attitude seemed to have taken a sharp turn. Before this appendicitis surgery, Hayden's mother often reminded her that Hayden was out of her league and not to fantasize about being with him; however, her mother seemed to have taken a completely different stance after the surgery. "Mom, I'm worried about what his employees might say." Shelly expressed her concerns. "I don't mind, but I'm worried about what his subordinates might say about him.""Since Hayden has taken the initiative to invite you along, it means he has already considered

Courtney saw her message and replied instantly. [When are you free? I'll take you clothes shopping!] [I'm going to see Hayden tomorrow, so how about the day after tomorrow?] Shelly replied. [I'm free anytime, so just let me know! Or you can tell me your measurements, and I'll buy your clothes!] [Courtney, I feel a bit hesitant now. I'm sure I won't measure up in terms of beauty when compared to others, so I don't think that I need to dress up too extravagantly. Just looking slightly more formal than usual should be enough.] [Why do you think you won't measure up to others? When you go for the team building, you'll be with his company's employees. How can you possibly fall short compared to them?] Courtney argued. [The female employees in his company are all elegant and beautiful. I saw a few of them when I visited his office, and they were all so stunning.] Shelly replied. [You find everyone beautiful only because you see beauty in every person you lay your eyes on. Maybe o

"Sure." Meanwhile in Elliot's mansion, the family had gathered for dinner and Layla had asked Eric to join them, and she specifically insisted that Hayden join them as well. Once everyone was present, Layla made her announcement with excitement, "I'm pregnant! Hahaha! I'm finally pregnant! I'm two months pregnant. I've been holding it in so hard!" Avery immediately smiled and asked, "When did you find out? Why are you only telling us now?" "I found out just a week ago, but there were some complications, so I had to stay in bed and take precautions for a week. I was afraid to tell you earlier because I didn't want you to worry," Layla explained. "It's good that everything is fine now, but you need to tell me about these things. It breaks my heart to think that you are suffering alone." "Mom, I'm actually quite optimistic about it. Although I really want a child, some things are beyond our control. I'm fine as long as Eric is by my side." "Having a positive mindset is impo

Even though there was no one else watching her, she still felt awkward and wished she could disappear into the ground. She had agonized for half the day about what to wear, worrying that if she didn't dress well, she would become the subject of ridicule among Hayden's employees. She even wondered if dressing too ostentatiously would make her stand out, but as it turned out, they were supposed to wear a uniform for the team-building event. After sending her measurements to Hayden, Shelly called Courtney. "Courtney, I'm so embarrassed! They have designated uniforms for the team-building event," Shelly exclaimed. On the other end of the phone, Courtney's tone was nonchalant as she said, "What's so embarrassing about that? You're not their employee, so nobody can dictate what you wear! Team-building outfits are usually quite ugly! You should dress up nicely, and you'll be just fine!" "But I already gave my measurements to Hayden, and he said he would provide me with their team-bu

"Give her a separate tent," Hayden replied without hesitation. "She's not an employee of our company, so it's not appropriate to make her stay with the other member of the staff." "I was thinking the same thing. Actually, I think we can arrange for her to share a tent with you," suggested Eliam nervously. "After all, you are the one who invited Ms. Taylor, and everyone already knows the relationship you two have. Moreover, it's crucial to determine whether someone is suitable or not by considering their compatibility in 'that' aspect as well." Hayden fell silent as he was not ready to live together with Shelly just yet. "Give her a separate tent!" Hayden repeated. "Understood, boss! I'll make the arrangements right away!" Eliam did not probe further, as he was afraid of truly angering his boss and losing his bonus. "About what you said earlier regarding deducting my bonus, were you serious or just trying to scare me?" "Say one more word, and I'll deduct it for real," Hayden r

"Mom, don't you think you're particularly enthusiastic about Shelly's family?" Layla sat beside her, watching her busy mother with a smile. "They're not even your in-laws yet! You haven't even mentioned sending something to my in-laws." Avery glanced at her daughter. "Would your in-laws appreciate these snacks? The reason I'm more concerned about Shelly's family is because Shelly's mother had surgery recently and needs to eat well for her recovery. Besides, Shelly comes from a less fortunate background, so it's only right for me to take care of them. It's a different case with your in-laws. They're so wealthy, so why would they need my help?" Layla was not genuinely blaming her mother for being biased and only meant to tease Avery. "If Shelly and my brother really become a couple, I'll have Shelly give you a commemorative plaque that says 'Best Mother-in-law!'" Layla continued to tease her mother. "You're truly the best in-law!" "Sure! I'll appreciate whatever Shelly gives me." A
Chapter 3037
If Hayden was to never come back to his mansion again, Samuel would have claimed all of his niece's toys as his own. When Elliot's driver pulled into the yard, the guard recognized Robert and opened the gate right away. When Samuel heard the noise, he walked outside and recognized Robert right away. "Mom, someone is here! They are from the Fosters!" Mrs. Taylor immediately set her chores aside and glanced outside and realized that her son was right. Startled, she immediately told her husband to hide upstairs with Audrey, and Mr. Taylor hurried up the stairs hastily. "Take it slow! Don't fall! Don't let my little Audrey fall," Mrs. Taylor anxiously interjected. "Alright, you attend to the guests! Don't worry about me." Mr. Taylor hurriedly carried Audrey upstairs. Robert and his bodyguard approached the villa's entrance, carrying gifts. Mrs. Taylor, with her son by her side, immediately welcomed them. "You must be Robert, right? What brings you here? And you brought so m
