Chapter 66: Chapter 66: What Do You Want to Talk About

Caleb Shaw’s heart was suddenly filled with an indescribable frustration.

He pressed his lips tightly together, his thin lips forming into a cold, hard line.

His handsome face instantly darkened.

Clearly, he was her legitimate partner, the husband officially registered in the family records.

But now?

She whispered intimately to another male, her expression affectionate.

Yet, on second thought, Caleb suddenly chuckled bitterly, shaking his head in self-mockery.

He forcibly expelled these chaotic thoughts from his mind.

Why should he care about this position?

To be honest, he’d be more than happy if she divorced him sooner.

This marriage was merely a family-arranged shackle, devoid of love and joy.

He had long grown weary of it.

If she truly had the courage to propose a separation, he would be more than willing.

Yet despite this, that feeling of discomfort in his heart continued to grow wildly like weeds, refusing to be suppressed.

At this moment, the belated Joni finally snapped back to reality and looked around.

The scene before her was chaotic.

The carpet was crumpled, jewelry scattered all over the place.

The atmosphere was so tense it was almost frozen, everyone’s expressions varying, yet none carried the familiar gentle smile.

She opened her mouth, weakly squeezing out a sentence.

"Ah... maybe I should come another day?"

Selene Kane lowered her voice, speaking softly to Zane, "Go back to the room and soak for a while, don’t come out."

Zane’s expression dimmed slightly.

"I haven’t seen you all day, can’t I even say a word?"

Seeing him like this, Selene’s heart softened, but she maintained her tone, gently coaxing, "Be good, listen, I have things to deal with right now, I can’t be distracted."

With that, she stood on tiptoe, gently holding his cheek with her hand.

His previously dejected mood was instantly ignited, his brows and eyes immediately relaxing.

He wrapped his arms around her waist, quickly pecking her on the cheek.

Before leaving, he deliberately turned his head, glaring fiercely at the few males standing aside.

Once the people left, the Little Fox jumped out from the corner, leaping into Selene’s arms, its furry head rubbing against her chin.

Selene cradled the Fox in one arm, gently rubbing its small head with the other.

Joni remained silently standing there, her gaze sweeping over Zane and then down to the Fox in Selene’s arms, frowning slightly.

She spoke softly, her tone complex.

"This house of yours... is truly a mess."

She originally thought she was just visiting a cousin, not expecting to walk into such a scene as soon as she stepped through the door.

Suddenly there appeared an impossibly handsome Mermaid, looking intimately connected with Selene Kane.

What concerned her more was that the fox, entirely snow-white, had lively eyes and an extraordinary aura, far from an ordinary wild fox.

God, what kind of life is Hayden leading?

She couldn’t help but feel a wave of bitterness and worry rise in her heart.

Selene forced a laugh, rubbing her nose awkwardly.

"These males in the house... really don’t have much sense of rules, and have quite a temper, sorry to let you witness that."

She paused for a moment, her tone softened.

"Hayden should be resting in the room, let me take you there, he will definitely be happy to see you."

Before she finished speaking, Ethan Sinclair suddenly stepped forward, blocking the corridor leading to the room.

Though young, his stance was assertive, his eyes sharp, unable to hide his youthful vigor and emotions.

"Dare you go?"

His voice suddenly rose, filled with anger.

"Do you know Hayden nearly lost his life? He had a high fever for a whole day, breathing heavily, nearly passing out! Now he’s finally asleep, and you want to go and agitate him?"

Joni’s face turned pale instantly, her lips trembling slightly.

What happened to Hayden?

How could he almost die?

She only felt a tightness in her chest, as if someone had squeezed it hard.

She abruptly lifted her head, her sharp gaze sweeping over everyone present.

Zane, the Little Fox, and the currently perplexed Selene Kane.

She had long heard that Beast Husbands often competed for favor, causing chaos.

But she never expected the gentle and patient Hayden would be involved in such a dispute.

His body was already frail, his meridians unstable, and emotional agitation could lead to loss of control.

How could he endure such schemes and torment?

She gritted her teeth, suppressing the panic in her heart, and asked in a low voice, "What exactly... happened?"

Selene exhaled softly.

"I know he doesn’t want to see me," she said quietly, "but Joni is the cousin he holds dearest in the world, having grown up together, bound by blood."

She paused, looking sincere.

"No matter how angry he is, he shouldn’t shut her out as well."

Joni’s little face turned bright red, her ears tinged with a cherry hue.

She hurriedly waved her hands, speaking incoherently.

"No, it’s not! You’ve misunderstood! Hayden and I are just ordinary cousins, really! There’s nothing else!"

Her voice grew smaller, almost like the hum of a mosquito.

But Ethan was unyielding, still blocking the door, arms crossed.

"I said no, and that’s that!"

"What Hayden needs most now is peace. No one can see him!"

He cast a cold glance at Joni, his tone laden with suspicion.

"Plus, this female is unknown to any of us, what if you paid her to ruin his reputation? Creating a fake cousinly intimacy to stir public opinion?"

Selene almost laughed in incredulity.

She couldn’t help but roll her eyes, shaking her head internally.

This kid’s imagination is enough to write a book.

She gently caressed the Little Fox in her arms, her fingertips softly brushing over its fluffy tail.

After a moment, she raised her head, turning to Joni with a warm smile, "Miss Joni, it seems Hayden isn’t available to meet guests now, so perhaps you’d honor me by having a private chat with me?"

Are they really this familiar?

They’d barely exchanged a few words before, why suddenly invite her for a private chat?

She frowned slightly, feeling a tinge of confusion.

But the other party had a smile and a sincere tone, making it hard to decline outright.

She hesitated for a moment, finally nodding, her voice soft, "Okay... but I don’t know what you want to discuss?"

Selene didn’t immediately answer, just smiled lightly, placing the Little Fox back in the crook of her arm.

She walked ahead with a light step, guiding Joni through the long corridor, around several corners.

Along the way, patterns of light and shadow appeared, the metallic walls reflecting a cool-toned light.

Finally, they stopped in front of a semi-transparent glass door.

The door silently slid open, revealing a world of blooming flowers inside.

This place had been transformed into a simple laboratory by her.

The equipment was neatly arranged in the corner, several small distillation devices standing quietly on the workbench.

The air was filled with a faint floral fragrance.

The custom perfume sent to Lady Lynn earlier.

It was meticulously crafted drop by drop in this greenhouse.

Every scent was repeatedly tested until the perfect balance was achieved.

Most plants in the interstellar environment were aggressive.
