Chapter 55 Un
It this check will be yours.
The man slid the agreement in front of Haleigh.
The agreement simply states that If one cannot deliver the item within three days, they are required to pay a tenfold penalty for breach of contract.
Without hesitation, Haleigh swiftly wrote down the name with a flourish.
How could she possibly not be able to hand in just a painting!
After collecting the check, Haleigh headed straight to Gavyn’s mansion.
She knew he wouldn’t be home at this time, but it was strange. That painting wasn’t worth much, yet no matter how hard she searched, she couldn’t find it.
Haleigh never expected Gavyn to come home early. She was still rummaging through the study when she heard the noise.
“Mom, what are you doing here?”
.
In the study, Haleigh, who was going through the bookcase, felt her heart sk*p a beat. She hurriedly smiled at Gavyn and then turned to tidy up the books she had accidentally knocked askew earlier.
“Oh dear, I saw that your study was messy, so I thought I’d help you tidy it up.”
Gavyn’s gaze swept over his mother, and with a calm expression, he loosened his tie and sat down on the couch. “Just tell me, what are you looking for?”
Tidy up the study.
Such a lame excuse could only be uttered by Haleigh.
His study has never been as messy as it is now.
“Oh dear, I just wanted to help you tidy up a bit,” Haleigh said, realizing she had been found out. Feeling embarrassed, she sat down across from Gavyn.
“Son, I remember that after the last auction, you brought home a painting. I didn’t get a chance to take a close look at it then, so I thought I’d come and see it today.”
Gavyn raised his eyes, and the look he gave Haleigh carried a touch of coldness.
“What are you looking at that painting for?”
“Of course I like it! How about this, you give me that painting, and I’ll take it home to appreciate it properly. That way, I won’t be bothering you here anymore.”
Haleigh never imagined that her son would be so adamant in his refusal.

No, I need that pale
Naturally, Haleigh felt a bit displeased. After all, she wasn’t just some outsider; it was just a painting. Was there really a need for such a reaction?

The readers' comments on the novel: Unveiling The Genius Behind The Divorce
Terrible ending, so she has helped out a model and an actor get started. Her “brothers” are not protecting her, her ex loves her dearly and she loves him but has never bothered to tell him what happened to her with amnesia to clear the air on their marriage that could be fixed the second time around. Readers want the romance and love of the story, not ridiculous violence, manipulation and deception. Make it right, finish the story with a grand wedding and a child of their own....
Come-on, her not knowing anything about herself and he knowing nothing about her, any wealthy man would think that way. Aylin is being totally unfair to Gavyn as it was his mother and sister who were deliberately lying to him and treating her like crap. Make it right!...
Wow, enough… why do you make the heroine out to be a hooker and allow the bixens to look like upstanding women? Shameless. Get the two who actually love each other back together and stop the nonsense. Since when does a mother arrange for her son’s wife, despicable. And rather sickening, obviously Gavyn’s mother is an idiot!...
Relationships based on lies… despicable women.. find the newsreel where Alton was actually the one who saved Gavyn and send it to him. Leila needs to go...
It's been almost a year since the last chapter. Is this story going to be completed?...
