Chapter 141
At Hallon International Airport
The girl was wearing a light purple spaghetti–strap skirt and pulling her suitcase as she walked through the airport.
She was nearly 57′ tall and slender, especially her smooth, long legs, which were straight and long.
She wore a pair of 16” high–heeled sandals, which lengthened her legs.
The girl’s temperament was exceptionally outstanding. She was elegant and calm. Her hair was much shorter, only reaching her
collarbone and casually scattered on her shoulders. Compared to two years ago, she had become more intellectual and gentle,
exuding a womanly aura.
Everyone who passed by her couldn’t help but stop and look back at her.
After leaving the airport, she stood by the roadside and looked. There were already many men who were tempted to approach
her.
A black luxury car stopped in front of her.
An elegant and gentle man pushed open the car door and got out, walking straight toward the girl.
“Hailey, Raphael called her gently.
Hailey looked up and smiled at the man. “Raphael, long time no see.”
The luxury car and the handsome man instantly dispelled everyone’s thoughts.
Such a beauty was indeed not worthy of ordinary people like them.
“Long time no see.” Raphael smiled and went forward to hug her gently.
The chauffeur put her suitcase in the car trunk and opened the door.
Hailey got into the car and stretched comfortably. “It’s so hot in the country. It is still more comfortable having an air conditioner.”
Raphael handed her a bottle of water and smiled, saying, “It’s July now, the hottest time.”
Hailey unscrewed the bottle and took a sip of water. She looked out the window. “The air is quite nice.”
It gave her a warm and familiar feeling.
The car started and drove toward the city center.
They passed by Luddie Plaza on their way. A financial news was playing on the big screen in the square.
Hailey looked up, and her gaze could not help but stop.
The host was interviewing a man on the big screen.
Due to the distance, Hailey could not hear the content of the interview but saw the man’s face.
The man was dressed in a black suit and sat upright.
He was super good–looking.

He had exquisite eyebrows, a chiseled outline, and deep eyes. They should have been a pair of charming and soul–stirring eyes,
but his eyes were filled with coldness and darkness like a swamp.
“Hailey? Hailey?”
Hailey suddenly came back to her senses. “Huh?”
Raphael handed her a tissue and asked worriedly, “What’s wrong? Why are you crying?”
‘Am I crying?‘ thought Hailey.
She raised her hand and touched her face. It was wet.
“Maybe the wind is too strong.” She smiled and took a tissue to wipe her tears.
Somehow, she felt her heart had become hollow when seeing that person, as if something was missing.
It was the first time she felt that way.
Raphael raised his hand and gently held hers. “You’re thin. You are back now and need to take good care of your health. I hired
a nanny. You will eat three meals a day on time from now on.”
She tilted her head and looked at Raphael, smiling at him and nodding.
Over the past two years, the relationship between her and Raphael had been rather plain and ordinary. They even treated each
other with respect as guests.
There was no sweet feeling and atmosphere that an ordinary couple had between them.
Half a year ago, Raphael went to Hallon City. Before boarding the plane, he wanted to kiss Hailey, but Hailey dodged out of
reflex.
Hailey always felt a bit guilty after the incident.
After all, Raphael was her fiancé and had been taking care of her with all his heart. Her reaction was a little too extreme.
But kissing...
She imagined the scene of her and Raphael kissing in her mind and couldn’t help but shake her head.
It felt weird.
Her father told her it was because both she and Raphael had characters that were slow to warm up. As long as they lived
together, their relationship would slowly warm up, and everything would come naturally.
Hailey felt that what his father said made sense, so she returned to the country.
The car drove into Rosemoor Estate.
It was a high–end residential area. The security facilities were great, and the privacy was excellent. Moreover, each household
has its dedicated elevator.
Raphael’s apartment was on the top floor of Building A, which was the twelfth floor.
Hailey followed Raphael into the elevator.
When they reached the twelfth floor, Hailey stopped and hesitated. “Raphael, why don’t I stay somewhere else?”
Raphael looked at her and asked lightly, “Hailey, don’t you want to live with me?”

Raphael looked hurt.
“That’s not what I meant.” Hailey lowered her head awkwardly and found an excuse. “I just feel it’s troublesome to stay here with
you. I have to go to school later. I think I can stay in the dormitory, which can also cultivate my independence.
“Hailey, you’re already independent, Raphael said.
“But I want to live alone. I’ve said I’m independent for the past two years, but I still rely on you and my father to take care of me
and tolerate me. I’m an adult. I should have my social circle”
Raphael pursed his lips and didn’t say anything else. “The dormitory in the school is communal. You might not be used to it. I’ll
arrange another place for you tomorrow.”
Raphael had retreated. Hailey didn’t say anything else. Anyway, she didn’t want to stay in the dormitory. She just didn’t want to
stay with Raphael.
She enjoyed her space alone more.
However, it would take time to find another place to stay. It was already five in the afternoon. No matter what, she had to stay
there tonight.
Raphael pulled her suitcase into his apartment.
“What would you like for dinner?” asked Raphael.
Hailey said, “Whatever.” Then, she took out her phone and searched for the man on the big screen.
“Then I’ll make pasta,” Raphael said, heading for the kitchen.
Hailey only responded with a murmur and didn’t raise her head.
That man was exceptionally handsome and unforgettable. Hailey only searched for the most handsome elites in the business
world and saw his information.
He was ranked first.
He was Owen Calhoun.
She couldn’t help but recite his name in her heart.
‘Owen Calhoun... Owen Calhoun...I’m somewhat familiar with that name. Could it be that I have seen the man before?” thought
Hailey.
She searched for his personal information again but could not find anything. The Internet only said he was power. nd was the
number one businessman in the country. The Calhoun Group was involved in many fields and was successful.
However, there was nothing at all about him.
Hailey sat on the sofa in a daze.
“Hailey, do you want some fruit?” Raphael asked.
Hailey came to her senses. She put down her phone and walked toward the kitchen. “Let me wash it.”
After dinner, Hailey washed up early and went to bed to adjust her schedule. However, she could not fall asleep and was still
reading Owen’s information.
“Knock, knock,”

Someone knocked on the door.
“Please come in,” said Hailey, putting down her tablet.
Raphael pushed open the door and came in with a glass of milk. “Drink some milk, and you’ll sleep better?
“Thank you.” Hailey took the milk and had a sip.
