Hilda scrolled through the news, only to see that she and Nathan had become the talk of town. Fans were all offering their blessings to the man who was past his prime yet made a comeback now for finding his love for the second time. Luna's identity had also been brought up since she'd become popular thanks to a video. The fans indeed had a keen eye, for they managed to surmise the identity of Luna's father from her cute countenance. Some reckoned that she was Nathan's daughter, while some guessed that she was Maya's daughter. In short, a myriad of speculations abound. Nathan didn't reply, knowing that it'd then all die down after they'd had their fill of gossip. When they were in bed at night, Luna burrowed into Hilda's embrace and whined pitifully, "Mommy, I miss Kater. It won't be coming back after moving, will it?" Kater had been with her since young, so she truly missed it now that it had moved away. "Kater has its own home, but we can go over to its home to visit in the futu
Lynn had known that it'd be a financial battle from the beginning itself, so he again whipped out his bidder card. "50 million!" The crowd went into an uproar. It's just been a mere few rounds, yet the bid has gone up by more than ten million! However, there were still people who continued bidding despite it being 50 million. "51 million." Nathan raised his bidder card. "53 million!" It was a European royal prince who called out the bid. "55 million!" This time, it was a prince from a country rich with oil in the Middle East. Kyle hurriedly joined in the fun. "57 million." He definitely wasn't buying it since he'd save the middlemen fee if he got it from Hilda directly. Thus, he was merely playing the game now and driving the price up. Emanating a cold air, Lynn swept a disdainful gaze over the crowd. With his utmost confidence as the Young Master of the Damien Family, he squeezed the slightly anxious Diana's petite hand before loudly proclaiming, "60 million!" Diana was over
As soon as she arrived at the venue, she went to Diana and apologized, "Miss Diana Monni, I hereby offer you my deepest apologies regarding the hurt I caused you during Pourl's product launching ceremony. Please accept my apology." She gave Diana a sincere bow after saying so. Chuckling complacently, Diana scanned the crowd before she responded, "It's alright. You don't need to take it so seriously. Let's consider this settled now that you already paid the fines. Lynn and I will soon be married, so we will become family soon." While she spoke, Diana deliberately combed her hair using her slender fingers to show off the huge diamond ring she wore, whereas a similar one resided on Lynn's ring finger. Seemingly unaffected, Hilda said, "Oh, so I see you are registered." Diana was so proud of herself, her face was flushed from all the emotions. "Yeah, we did. Because it's my birthday as well as an auspicious day, we got registered in the morning, while the ceremony will be held next mo
The events unfolded one after the other according to plan. Just when the case with Diana's tax evasion was finally beginning to subside and the public was on the verge of turning their attention to something else, Pourl made a move to sue Diana for scamming. In effect, they were using the whole ordeal with Diana as an opportunity to market their brand. Since Diana admitted that she didn't earn as much as fifty million per month, the fact that she requested a compensation of fifty million from Pourl would be a scam. The list for compensation was done by Diana's team, which listed out in black and white each of the items that were being compensated for. Compensation for medical bills and mental anguish didn't even amount to a million, while the rest were all compensation for loss of income. Diana had no way of denying any of the claims, as it was listed out on paper. The lawsuit caught Diana unawares. It wasn't until then that she realized she had fallen into a trap. Right after the
On the other hand, William knew Peace was often being harassed by Briana, but he also acknowledged the fact that she didn't like to have a bodyguard following her around. Thus, he adopted two retired army dogs that she could bring along with her to work, which were with her at the moment. However, Hilda held her back. "That won't be necessary. I can handle her." In the meantime, Briana was waiting downstairs, knowing that Nathan was upstairs, orbiting around that wench, Maya as usual. She decided she would make everybody's life difficult, because she could easily get away due to her parents' status as fallen heroes. Soon, Hilda showed up wearing a pair of sunglasses and having a lion beside her. Upon noticing Briana's presence, she walked toward Briana with the lion in tow, which shocked Briana so much that she ran away shuddering. It wasn't until then that she led Koklo onto the car to head back home with Nathan tagging along. Not even Nathan could do anything about Briana. "Sh
When it was time for the cocktail party in the morning, the guests were already gossiping about it, but none dared confront the newly married couple. It was their wedding after all, so it didn't seem nice to dump such a scandal in their faces In the meantime, Hilda's private jet landed on the island. As a member of the Damien family, she figured she should bear witness to the wedding of the century, or else, as what Diana told her, it wouldn't be complete. The wedding would last for three days. On the first day, the ceremony and the dinner party would take place. On the second day, there would be more exciting performances and other social gatherings. On the final day, all of them would board the cruise ship and return to Taadi. Although the most climactic and sacred part of the wedding was over, Hilda didn't think she was late. The show has just begun. After showing the security guards her invitation card, she got into the place easily. Also, she was accompanied by some people.
The island was located on the Pacific Ocean within the territory of Lome. It was also the property of Lynn and Diana. Since Lome had been gripped by internal conflicts recently, they had arranged enough troops and firepower on the island. However, they had never expected that Connie was bold enough to deploy a naval ship and submarines, which were enough to take control of Lome. Connie was a mad woman who would destroy her opponents at all costs, even if she had to be brought down as well in the process. If a missile was dropped on this island, all of the important members of the Monni, Jones and the Damien family would be dead. Connie thought of herself as only one woman, so the sacrifice would be worth it. Even though Elizabeth and Salem were enraged, they had to pretend to be gentle while dealing with Connie. "Hey Connie, we haven't met for more than twenty years!" Feigning surprise, Elizabeth clinked glasses with Connie. In an impassive manner, Connie replied, "It's nice to
"My life is over... My life is over... Both the Damien Family and the Jones Family want to dump me... My own family also wants to dump me... I'm going to die as well... She's back! Hilda Adams is back!" Seeing as she had gone mad, Lynn stared at her in a derisive manner. However, he had managed to get a piece of useful information from her, she mentioned Hilda Adams. He had been pursuing his doctorate degree for the past few years in a foreign country. Having returned to the country just two years ago, he didn't know who Hilda was. When he stepped out of the bedroom, he came across Sahara, who was going to check on Diana. "Lynn, how's Diana?" Sahara asked. With a contemptuous expression, Lynn replied, "She's gone mad. Don't worry. She's still alive." Sahara let out a sigh, thinking that it was a shame that Diana was destroyed. She's no match for Maya after all! It seems that Maya is clever than I expected. In one easy move, she managed to ruin the political marriage between the t
