"Who are you talking about?" Nancy asked her, "Who would bring me danger?""It's just a hypothetical. You can answer as you like," Rowena said."Then it would depend on what kind of dangers they are.""Let's say he has his own goals, and his own enemies. He's gone through more complicated affairs than you can imagine. He's even been a part of the underworld as well. Being together with him will mean that you'll be exposed to dangers that you can't even imagine.""That's a very complicated background. Well, it'll depend on whether or not I truly like him then," Nancy answered, "I might still be together with him at the start, then decide how far I'm willing to go after I see how much I like him. Everyone has gone through different things in life. This needs more context to properly think about it, so it's hard to answer your question."Hearing that, Rowena chuckled and said, "That's true."After that, she left the office, and Nancy's carefree expression became more serious.She t
That was right. Lucy was trying to force Yaacob. She was trying to force Yaacob using her life's happiness as a threat!It was her last chance anyway. She looked at the man with all the hopes and dreams in her eyes.Yet, unexpectedly, Yaacob still gave her such a cold answer, "I've never answered you before, and now that I'm already married, there's no way I will now."When Lucy heard that, she took a step back in disappointment. She felt like her soul had been sucked out of her, and her face rapidly darkened. Even her carefully done makeup was not enough to make her look good.Yaacob ignored her after that, and turned around to leave the room.Yet, at that moment, Lucy suddenly rushed over and hugged him from behind.On the other end, Nancy noticed that all the other guests were chatting with each other with champagne in hand. She was left sitting there alone, which left her feeling a bit dumb.She did not want to catch any attention, so she decided to walk around herself.Y
After that, Nancy still returned to the wedding venue.She wanted to see how Yaacob would explain it.However, she was not with Yaacob anymore. She got herself a piece of blueberry cake and quietly ate it by herself. She did not have any cake earlier because she was worried it would be fattening, but she was too angry to care at that moment.At that moment, Spencer and Teresa had just toasted the newlyweds. When Spencer put down his glass, he noticed Nancy sitting in the corner by herself."Spencer, what are you looking at?"Teresa followed his gaze, and her smile froze slightly the moment she saw Nancy.She sighed and said, "I tried to greet her just now, but she ignored me. I think she still holds a grudge against us. Maybe she's looking for a chance to completely screw with me.""Don't say that; Nancy isn't such a petty person," Spencer consoled.Hearing that, Teresa looked at him curiously, not expecting Spencer to speak up for Nancy in front of her."Spencer, why are you
Since Nancy was wearing heels, she fell to the ground the moment Spencer pushed her away.After that, she saw Spencer picking Teresa up with great concern."Nancy, I was just sincerely apologizing to you. Even if you don't want to forgive me, surely you didn't need to put me in such a difficult spot in public?" Teresa looked at Nancy and said."I didn't…"Before Nancy could finish, Spencer completely ignored Nancy and brought Teresa away.From the looks of that man, he was deliberately ignoring her. He was probably angry at her.What happened between those three quickly gathered the interest of the other guests at the banquet.Nancy awkwardly crawled up from the ground as everyone looked at her.She had just gotten up when Rosa appeared out of nowhere to accuse her, "Nancy, you already caused trouble the last time. Are you here just to cause trouble again?""When did you see me causing trouble?""I saw it with my own eyes. So many others here saw you pushing Teresa to the gro
Suddenly, Nancy heard noises from the room, and someone was walking toward the door. She quickly hid herself behind a tree to avoid being seen. Just then, Damon was seen walking out of the room toward the lobby.Before today, she had never really taken a good look at Damon's face because, well, she was just not interested in him. Taking a good look now, she realized Damon was a man of power and authority who brought much stress to anyone who got close to him. A trait quite similar to Julian but different to Yaacob.A minute later, Yaacob also left the room. His shadow cast right at the darker shade of the corridor. As he was about to walk toward the lobby, a small rock flew past his shower. He looked back and saw Nancy walking out from a row of trees.Nancy came over and grabbed his shoulder. "Hey, you're here. I thought you had left without me. Luckily you didn't. Let's go home."Yaacob looked at her and asked, "Do you want me to explain it to you?""Umm… You can explain after we
"Teresa, didn't we discuss it already? I have contacted a damn awesome production team and I guarantee you're going to make it this time. No one is going to remember about the plagiarism case. The contract is signed. You can't be pregnant!" Pamela sighed, "Think about it. You're still young. Do you really want to have a baby now and get in your way of shining brightly in your career?""Alright! Alright! You're so noisy." Teresa rolled her eyes and massaged the side of her head. "It's not like I want this to happen.""Yes, Spencer's parents treat me well now. But I know, deep down, they think I don't deserve to marry into their family. I used to use Nancy to make myself look better so they have a good impression on me. But if I marry Spencer in the future, that's not going to work when I live with them," Teresa continued."That's right. We should have our own careers to avoid being bullied by our in-laws. Spencer's mother doesn't look like she's an easygoing person. When I was Nancy'
The best room in the hotel was in a mess now. Broken glasses were everywhere. And torn pieces of female attire.Half of Lucy's face was pinned at the door while the other half looked hurt with the corner of her mouth swollen.Julian pinched her neck with one hand. He said with a cruel smile, "The man you love is spending a great night with another woman next door but you can only be with me. It feels bad, isn't it?"Lucy tried hard to move her lips to talk, "I don't know what you're talking about.""You don't know?" Julian closed in and talked in a tone that sounded dangerous, "I still have the video where you confessed your love to Yaacob."Suddenly, he tightened his hand and admired how painful Lucy felt from a close distance.Lucy bit her lip and looked at him, "You're the one who installed a camera in the makeup studio. Why do you marry me if you already know I'm in love with Yaacob?""Do you think you're so great by marrying me because of him? Well, let me help you with tha
The sound attracted people's attention. When they entered the room, they saw Nancy and Lucy arguing."Mom! Nancy broke the candle!" Lucy complained first."It wasn't me!" Nancy rebuked.Charlene heard both sides and looked at them without saying a thing.Just then, Lady Getson walked in with the help of a walking stick. By the time she saw the broken candle, her face looked terrible. "Gosh, Oh, god. Oh, god…"She was a devout person so she kept on praying. After that was done, she turned to look at Nancy and asked, "Why did you do this?""Grandma, it wasn't me. It's…"Just when Nancy was trying to explain, she got cut off."Don't call me Grandma. I never admit that you're my granddaughter-in-law!" Lady Getson went on complaining, "No wonder I was told there would be troubles in our family this year. What did we do to deserve this? The moment Yaacob came back, trouble started to appear nonstop. He even married a troublemaker…"Older people tended to grumble a lot. After listeni
