Maeve was with Lydia at that moment. She could not help but scold Henry countless times in her heart. It was a waste that Lydia trusted him so much. She had told him the truth, but he still did not show up.He was a coward.Lydia's expression was cold and sad. She knew her fate could not be changed. However, no matter what, even if she were to die, she would keep her innocence.She would never let any other man except Henry touch her body.Even if it led to the destruction of the Miller family.She could not care about everything else. The ones to be blamed were her grandfather and parents.Under normal circumstances, if she were to die at the Truman family's hands, there was no reason for Peter to kill her parents."Lydia, are you really going to go with Peter?" Maeve could not stand it."Do I have a choice?" Lydia smiled bitterly. "Maeve, if you can be with Henry, you must—""Lydia, what are you talking about? I will never do that. Maybe Henry will be here soon." Maeve was s
John and the others did not know what Peter was thinking. From Peter's point of view, they were too weak and insignificant.They were not on the same level at all.He could destroy the Miller family in countless ways with just one command if he wanted.After he entered the house and exchanged simple greetings with everyone, they started talking about Lydia.Lydia could no longer stay away. She forced herself to look fresh and alert, then walked out of her room.Maeve followed behind her but did not keep up with her.She really could not stand witnessing the situation.'Henry, what a bastard and a coward you are,' she scolded him harshly.She did not care what Henry thought of her. She secretly called Henry on his phone.Henry had already arrived outside the house. However, he did not enter immediately. He wanted to find out what Peter intended to do.When he received the call, he could not help but answer it immediately, worried that Lydia might be in trouble. However, as soo
John agreed immediately and said, "Lydia, you must be obedient in the future when you are with Mr. Truman. Never do anything you shouldn't do.""Yes, don't be petty and disobey Mr. Truman. Whatever Mr. Truman says, it will be the final decision. Do whatever he asks you to do. Most importantly, listen, observe, and talk less."Jennifer could not stop reminding Lydia. She almost wanted Lydia to recite all the dos and don'ts after her.When Peter heard that, he became even more arrogant. That was the behavior of inferior people from a small town.Being favored by a noble young man like him, just a random word was enough to make them grateful.The more he listened to the two people's compliments, the more he looked down on the Miller family, including Lydia.He thought highly of Lydia when she rejected him several times earlier. Even then, he knew she would eventually turn into his toy.Furthermore, he was confident he had ways to make Lydia surrender to him obediently.Maeve final
Everyone looked at the door when Henry's voice was heard.As John looked forward to that day's important and auspicious event, all their relatives, including some friends, were present.There were quite a number of people at the Millers at that moment.Maeve was shocked. She looked at the door immediately when she heard that voice. Henry, the person she had been thinking about, had arrived.He had finally arrived.He had really arrived. He did not fool Maeve earlier.Henry's words had been exciting and blood-boiling. However, the problem was, how could Henry handle Peter's rage?Maeve turned around and noticed Peter's face was extremely gloomy, as she had expected. He stared intently at the door, his eyes full of murderous intent.Lydia, however, was very excited and happy.Lydia was indeed very excited; she had completely lost hope earlier.The voice lingering in her mind was heard at that exact moment, which surprised her. She was stunned. She even suspected she was experie
William and Jennifer were confused. They were furious and shouted angrily, "Mike, get out of here. Do you know what you are saying?""Of course, I know what I'm saying. Henry, you're here to look for Lydia, right? She's there; she's been waiting for you!" Mike shouted."Mike! Get back to your room!" John was furious. His grandson had always worried him since he was a child. He had caused another disaster.Mike had been lucky to escape several disasters with the help of Henry, who pretended to be someone powerful.Mike had done the worst by saying something like that. He had offended Peter terribly.Mike could not help but feel startled and frightened when he faced the angry scolding from John. He was still very afraid of that old man. He stepped back helplessly, but he did not leave.John did not have the time to care about him. He walked straight to Henry and said coldly, "Henry, today is an auspicious day for our family. I don't want to have any argument with you.""What a coi
Peter clenched his fists, his body emanating an astonishingly hostile aura. It was obvious that he was furious. He would have taken immediate action if it were not for the special occasion.Lydia's face paled. She was so worried that she shouted, "Henry, we're divorced and not related to each other anymore. Please don't bother me and leave quickly."John and others looked angrily at Henry as well. That bastard was destroying the Miller family's path to great fortune and success. How annoying was that?However, Henry's days would be over soon. He had offended Peter horribly, and even if he had always been lucky, the only way forward for him was death.Although Lydia chased him away, Henry was not angry at all. He could see in Lydia's eyes the love and concern she had for him. She was worried that something bad would happen to him.When Peter heard Lydia's words, he was not happy. Instead, his facial expression grew more gloomy. In Peter's mind, Henry would be a corpse soon; he woul
Henry repeated the words, his tone exactly the same as it had been back then.At the same time, the image of Little Beggar in Lydia's mind slowly merged with the image of Henry standing before her. She held the jade pendant in her hand."You? You're really Little Beggar?" Lydia was so excited that she could barely speak clearly. She asked in disbelief, even though she was sure in her heart.She could hardly believe that Henry was Little Beggar, someone she had never forgotten in all those years. She always thought it was just wishful thinking. Who knew it would turn out to be true?"Yes," Henry answered firmly. He had a photographic memory since childhood, so he naturally had not forgotten anything. "In fact, one of the important reasons I came to Hodbridge was to find you. I'm fortunate to have finally found you.""Such a coincidence! It's such a coincidence," Lydia said, her face full of excitement as she started to shed happy tears.She was so happy, so emotional, and so excit
John was very anxious when he saw Lydia's actions. Her defiance had completely offended Peter.John stepped forward immediately and said, "Lydia, what are you doing? Get out of the way at once."Jennifer was equally worried and shouted angrily, "Stupid girl! Do you want to die? Get out of the way immediately."As Jennifer spoke, she moved to pull Lydia away. At the same time, she cursed Henry in her heart, blaming him for ruining her daughter's perfect future.To everyone's shock, Lydia pulled out a dagger she had hidden on her body. She held it to her neck and shouted angrily, "Stop! Whoever dares to come close, I will die in front of you."Everyone was stunned.John and the others were furious. They never thought Lydia would act so recklessly for Henry.Maeve was shocked too. How could that have happened? She began to regret telling Henry. It might have killed Lydia.Mike was worried, but there was nothing he could do. Although he did not want Lydia to go with Peter, he had t
