The door slammed shut.

Luke and Willow came out but didn’t see Daddy and Mommy, they searched around the house, and then the doorbell rang.

Luke glanced at the front door monitor, saw Aria Richardson, and hurriedly opened the door to let her in.

“Godmother,” Luke called out cheerfully.

“My little babies, godmother missed you so much.” Aria hugged the two little ones, planting a fierce kiss on each of their faces.

Then, she looked around the house and didn’t find Hope Williams, so she asked, “Where’s Mommy?”

Luke indicated that he didn’t know by shaking his head.

Aria’s gaze fell on the tightly closed bedroom door.

Outside, the sunshine was bright, streaming through the windows and illuminating the room.

In the quiet room, the rustling sound of clothes being rubbed could be heard.

Hope Williams was utterly mesmerized by Waylon Lewis; her open-buttoned nightgown was removed, and she was held in his arms, unconsciously moving to his rhythm.

Step by step, she surrendered.

His kisses endlessly landed on her body, and he kissed Hope’s forehead and, with a hoarse voice and fiery gaze on her face, asked, “May I?”

Hope bit her lower lip, her eyes trembling, and placed both hands on his shoulders.

In a moment of consideration, she leaned over and actively kissed Waylon’s lips.

Waylon’s dark eyes widened, swept by a wave of ecstasy a moment later.

She motioned toward him, indicating it was okay.

He kissed her lips even more forcefully, wishing he could meld her into his bones.

Their clothes were all removed.

Waylon embraced her deeply, and Hope clung to him, letting him have his way.

Hope had no escape…

“Hope, are you in the room?”

Hope suddenly opened her eyes, about to push Waylon away.

But it was too late.

“Click.”

“Holy shit!” Aria slammed the door shut with a snap, standing there, completely taken aback.

Oh my god oh my god oh my god…

What had she just seen?

There were two people under the covers, one was her best friend—Hope.

And another man!

Who was it!

Whoever it was!

What had she just done!

She had barged right in!

And then…

“Oh my god, Hope, I really didn’t mean to do it.”

Having interrupted her best friend’s intimate moment, Aria felt extremely guilty.

Hope pushed Waylon off her, pulling the blanket up to her neck.

What had she done!

She had almost just… indeed, it’s easy to get into a mishap when playing with fire.

Waylon said, “I…”

“Don’t talk!” The muffled sound came from under the blanket.

More than anyone, Waylon was furious, interrupted once again! Once again! Once again!

Hope, completely out of sorts now, wrapped herself in a blanket and dashed for the bathroom to change her clothes.

Waylon had dressed, but even the warm sunshine couldn’t thaw the ice on his face.

Seeing Waylon’s resentful face, Hope felt extremely helpless.

“Can’t you get rid of this friend?” Waylon asked in a deep voice.

“…”

Aria, who just offended someone very powerful, sat trembling in the living room.

With Aria outside, Hope couldn’t stay in the room forever.

Hope didn’t know how to calm his raging anger.

Embarrassed, Hope walked out of the room, Waylon following closely behind.

Curled up in the corner of the sofa, Aria, trembling, used the two little ones as shields, while a cartoon played on the large TV screen in front of her.

Laughter from the TV felt like it was mocking her impending sadness.

A chilling aura mysteriously spread through the air.

She knew the terrifying look on the face of the Great Demon King without even looking.

The piercing coldness kept seeping into her skin, making it feel like a frigid winter.

“Aria?” Hope called out softly.

Aria held her face with both hands, peering through her fingers at Hope, but she didn’t know what to say, so she blurted out, “You guys were almost done, eh?”

After saying that, Aria really wanted to donate her mouth away.

A bone-chilling gaze had already swept over her.

Nervous, Aria said, “This… President Lewis, I’m not saying you are quick…”

Forget it, might as well donate her head to a hotpot restaurant!

“Hope your next time in bed with your boyfriend gets interrupted just as suddenly,” Waylon said bitterly.

Was he really that spiteful?

Embarrassed, Hope laughed it off, “Isn’t it lunchtime now? I… I’ll go get groceries…”

Nanny Bailey poked her head out from the kitchen, “Miss, I already…”

A glance from Hope sent her message.

Nanny Bailey thought it was wise to shut up.

“Waylon Lewis, aren’t you going back to your company? Go ahead, I won’t keep you for lunch.”

“You’re not keeping me, but her?”

Waylon’s look at Aria was as if she were a sworn enemy from a past life.

Suddenly mentioned, Aria, startled, stood up quickly, “I’ll go, I’ll go!”

Aria grabbed her bag and ran off, “Hope, I’ll come to see you later.”

Hope, feeling extremely helpless, rubbed her forehead and looked at Waylon, “Maybe you should go first, too.”

Hope always felt it was incredibly awkward for them to stay together under such circumstances.

Everyone needed some time to cool down.

President Lewis, being sent out of the house, returned to his company, where the atmosphere was bleak and full of complaints.

Hope thought for a moment and then called Aria back.

Aria peeked out from the doorway, “Has the Great Demon King left?”

Hope nodded, “He’s gone.”

Aria then dared to straighten up and walked out, hugging Hope, “Hope, I really knew it was wrong, I didn’t mean to interrupt you guys making love.”

Hope closed her eyes tightly, “Maybe you should just leave.”

Aria zipped her lips shut and mimed pulling a zipper closed across her mouth.

“Hope, can you tell me what’s the deal between you and Waylon Lewis right now?” Aria asked curiously, blinking at Hope Williams, “Have you two made up?”

Seeing Waylon Lewis, the only thoughts she had were fear and the worry that her best friend might have fallen for him again.

“I guess so.”

“Are you two remarried?”

“No, just boyfriend and girlfriend,” Hope replied as she popped a piece of apple into her mouth.

“Boyfriend and girlfriend? You two were like an old married couple eight years ago, and now you’re doing the young love thing?” Aria was utterly shocked.

Hope stuffed a strawberry into Aria’s astonished mouth.

“Not okay with it?”

“Totally fine, as long as you two are happy. President Lewis has really changed,” Aria noted, having seen Waylon’s transformation during the incidents involving both Hope and Willow.

The love in his eyes couldn’t be faked.

Aria also knew they had two children together, and those children needed a happy family.

She wished for Hope’s happiness.

So, if Hope and Waylon were really heading towards remarriage, Aria was all for it.

After finishing their meal, the four of them prepared to go out shopping as staying at home was too boring.

They headed to a clothing store on the second floor, specifically to the children’s section, as Hope mainly wanted to buy clothes for Luke and Willow.

Looking at the tiny garments, Hope thought each piece would be perfect for her darlings.

Especially since Luke was so handsome and Willow so pretty—with their chubby-cheeked smiles, they even charmed the store staff.

Hope selected plenty for them, exiting the shop heavily laden with big and small bags, and eventually had to leave them at the shop for convenience, planning to pick them up later.

After buying the children’s clothes, the group moved toward the jewelry section.

Shopping was definitely a favorite activity for every girl.

Speaking of coincidences, as Hope and Aria were picking out jewelry, a hand reached out and snatched the necklace from Hope’s hands.

Frowning, Hope looked up to see Joy Ward standing beside her, with Valentina River accompanying her, along with four bodyguards carrying her shopping.

The group was quite a spectacle.

A flicker of intrigue passed through Hope’s eyes; even at its peak, the Ward Family had never flaunted such grandeur as Joy was now.

“This necklace is really beautiful,” Joy commented as she held the necklace against her neck.

“Yes, Joy, it looks stunning on you,” Valentina flattered.

Joy nodded with satisfaction, “I’ll take it, wrap it up.”

Aria rolled her eyes and spoke languidly, “Joy, Hope was looking at that necklace first. Ever hear of first come, first served?”

Joy turned her head to Hope, raising her eyebrows provocatively, “What do you mean she saw it first? But now it’s in my hands, so it’s mine.”

Hope’s delicate eyebrows knit together briefly, and she promptly snatched the necklace back from Joy, handing it to the sales associate, “Wrap this up.”

The sales associate, caught between the two ladies fighting over a necklace, was in a tough spot.

Luke spoke up, “Auntie, my Mommy saw that necklace first.”

The sales associate then realized, nodding, “Alright, just a moment.”

“Think carefully—standing in front of you is Mrs. Morris. Are you sure you want to offend the Morris Family for this woman?” Valentina spoke sharply.

The sales associate hesitated.

Naturally, she was aware of the Morris Family’s eminent status, and offending Mrs. Morris was something she dared not do.

She turned to Hope and suggested, “Miss, perhaps you could look at another style?”

Joy smirked triumphantly at Hope.

Hope’s brows drew together slightly, “I want this one, please wrap it up.”

The sales associate was clearly distressed, but offending Mrs. Morris of the Morris Family was something she absolutely did not dare do.

The lady in front of them was dressed decently, but she seemed to be from a modest household, definitely no match for Mrs. Morris.

Her voice turned harsher, “Miss, I’m sorry but Mrs. Morris has taken an interest in this necklace.”

“Are you looking down on people with your dog eyes?” Aria Richardson sneered coldly.

“What are you doing? Joy saw it first,” Valentina River said sharply.

“What happened to Joy?” Mia Fuller walked over from the other side upon hearing the commotion and smiled upon seeing Hope Williams, “Sister Hope, you’re here too.”

“Sister Mia, do you think this necklace looks good on my neck?” Joy Ward smiled brightly.

Mia Fuller frowned slightly and glanced at Joy Ward’s necklace before discreetly shifting her gaze to Hope Williams, her eyes clearing as she smiled, “It looks nice.”

“It’s hideous.”

Luke suddenly blurted out from the side.

“Hahaha, Luke is right,” Aria laughed.

Joy Ward gritted her teeth in anger and threw the necklace at the sales associate, “Just wrap it up for me. What I like is mine. You like it? Can you even afford it? This one is over a hundred thousand. You?”

Hope Williams was just a doctor at the hospital and had to support two children. Where did she get the confidence to buy a necklace worth hundreds of thousands in one go?

Luke tapped Aria Richardson on the side to get her attention, and after hearing what Luke had to say, Aria gasped, “My dear Baby, you’re really giving me a chance to make amends.”

Aria immediately took out her phone, entered the mobile number Luke gave her into her phone, and then labeled it (“This is Aria Richardson, making amends regarding Sister Hope”).

The next second, it went through.

Aria…

She quickly typed a few words, “President Lewis, I’m turning on the video for you to see Sister Hope, stay quiet.”

The other side responded with “Hmm.”

As expected, very much in line with Waylon Lewis’s character, it seemed as if even speaking one more word to her was too generous.

Aria turned her phone’s volume down to the lowest and then video-called Waylon Lewis.

Waylon Lewis answered immediately, and Aria aimed the camera at Hope Williams.

Valentina River sneered coldly, “Can’t afford it and still putting on airs here, what a joke.”

“Don’t say that, Joy. Since Sister Hope saw it first, let her have it. It’s just a necklace, no need for this,” Mia Fuller advised with furrowed brows.

Hope Williams’s cold gaze swept over her with a raised eyebrow.

“Alright, if she can afford it, I’ll generously let her have this necklace,” Joy Ward scoffed disdainfully at Hope Williams.

The sales associate took in everything the young ladies discussed and knew that this Miss did not have any money; thus, she couldn’t afford it, delaying her business, and such people were most abhorrent.

The sales associate didn’t prepare the package but instead asked Hope Williams, “Miss, this necklace is valued at 89999, and our store does not accept credit. If you want it, you must pay in full. Can you afford this amount?”

Hope Williams detected the irony in the sales associate’s words.

Joy Ward chuckled and covered her mouth delicately, “Miss Williams, even if you sold yourself right now, you wouldn’t get that much money, would you? Hilarious. Miss Williams, you might as well leave, I wouldn’t shop for luxury brands anymore if I were you, because you can’t afford it. It’s embarrassing.”

“Hahaha, Joy, I think she’s never shopped at luxury brands, so she doesn’t know the prices, which is why she’s making a fool of herself here. Such a country bumpkin,” Valentina River joined in with a laugh.

The sales associate immediately said, “I’m sorry, Miss, we won’t be selling you this necklace. Please do not continue to disrupt our business here.”

She wouldn’t risk offending Mrs. Morris and her friends for such a penny-pincher.

Aria Richardson and Luke Willow were furious, but Hope Williams calmly gave them a look and stopped them.

Mia Fuller stood quietly on the side, her lips curling up into a cold smile as she listened, “Joy, don’t say that, what if Sister Hope really can afford it?”

“Sister Mia just got back, she doesn’t understand this woman. How could she possibly afford these luxury goods? Ridiculous,” Joy Ward continued to laugh.

Ice coldness filled Hope Williams’s eyes.

“Who are you to decide that I can’t afford it?” her gaze swept toward the sales associate.

“People like you who browse without buying, I see too many each day. I can tell right away, so there’s no need for you to continue bothering us. We won’t sell it to you, just that we won’t.”

The sales associate’s words pleased Joy Ward, who smirked, “Since you can’t afford it, the necklace is mine. Wrap it up for me and help me choose some other jewelry.”

The sales associate immediately went to package it, respectfully handing it to Joy Ward, “Mrs. Morris, your package is ready.”

Hope Williams snatched the packaged necklace from the table, her face devoid of a smile, “Go call your store manager over.”
