ReadGoodChapter 859 Chapter 859 It had been forever since Hayden and I shared such an uninterrupted, feel-good moment.
"Isn't it kind of a waste for just the two of us to hog this whole yacht?" I sighed after the kiss ended.
Before Hayden could answer, a familiar voice rang out. "We're coming up! Hope nothing R-rated is happening up there!" My jaw dropped. I spun to glare at Hayden. "You didn't- "What better way to enjoy this view than with your favorite people? Besides me, obviously, that means Lena." By the tLena appeared on the deck, Hayden had already setdown. I held out my arms tically. "Chere, hug me." "Whoa, what's with the extra love? You trying to make your honey jealous?" Lena teased as she pulledinto a big, warm hug.
Behind her, I spotted someone else climbing aboard. Leaning closer, I whispered, "Your Uncle Aaron's been glued to your side lately." "Has not!" Lena hissed, givinga sharp pinch at my waist-my ticklish weak spot.

I burst into giggles, squirming as she tickledon purpose. A second later, we were darting around the deck like kids.
"Take it easy," Lena called out after me, her OB-GYN mode kicking in.
The guys? They just stood there laughing at us.
The sky stretched out in the brightest blue, the breeze warm and easy. For the first tin what felt like forever, the weight in my chest was gone. Hayden always knew how to liftout of a funk. "You're glowing, Ms. Kay. Tell me, how can you look this happy?" Ron's tic voice shattered the peace, and couldn't help but grin.
Right. My technically still current boss.
Not for lack of trying-I'd tried to quit, but he wouldn't let me. And Hayden? He'd reassigned most of my work to Ron. So yeah, I could see why he was bitter.
"My wife isn't allowed to smile?" Hayden drawled, his tone so chill it was impossible to Chapter 85% argue with.
"She's allowed," Ron muttered through gritted teeth. Then he shota glare, muttering," Capitalists and their spoiled wives." The last part was clearly directed at me.
Lena, who had met Ron a few times before, laughed. "Look at you two bullying poor Mr. Shane like that. Shon you." Apparently, that was all Ron needed. He beelined for Lena, flinging himself at her side. Dr. Lane! You're the only one who gets it. Tell me, what did I do to deserve this? Did I wrong them in a past life? Why do they treatlike this-like I'm... like I'm..." He trailed off, probably realizing we'd twist whatever he said into another joke.

Lena kept it together, patting his arm like he was a kid. "Don't worry. You're fine." Her tone was so soothing she might as well have added a "sweetheart" at the end.
The whole thing was too funny not to document. I grabbed my phone and spapped a quick picture of them.
While we were all laughing, Aaron's voice cut in dryly. "Ron, maybe you ΟΠ should have Lena do a gender NO reassignment surgery on you. That way, Hayden might stop bossing you around." "Pfft!" I burst into another round of laughter.
Lena didn't miss a beat. "Mr. Shane, if you're interested, I'll even give you a discount. Ron's face twitched. He glanced down at himself, then took a giant step back from Lena. I was laughing so hard I had tears in my eyes, and when I wiped them away, I caught Aaron staring at Lena. His gaze was locked on the arm Ron had been clinging to, his expression tight. "Your uncle's jealous," I blurted out before I could stop myself.
And, of course, I said it loud enough for everyone to hear.
Dead silence.
Every head turned to stare at me.
