After the speech and toast, the food was served.

One of the maids 'accidentally' spilled some soup on Suzie. Fortunately, Suzie was on guard and avoided most of it. However, some of it splashed on the hem of her white dress.

Suzie frowned. Before she could rebuke the maid, the latter had already kneeled on the ground.

"Please forgive me, Madame! This is my first time serving here and I am nervous. I am careless and deserved to be punished."

The maid's cry was so loud that everyone heard it.

The guests looked at the front and saw Suzie seating majestically while a young maid was kneeling on the ground pitifully.

They started to murmur.

Bullying a young maid just because she was in power?

Although it was a common occurrence, bullying the poor publicly was still frowned upon. People would still talk behind that person's back because that someone's personality was bad.

Reputation was something that people in high society cared about the most.

    Suzie pressed her arm on the maid's neck and quickly took the gun that was tied to her leg.The maid was about to struggle when she felt a cold metallic sensation on her forehead.Suzie pointed the gun at her, "One wrong move, and your head will blow up."The maid: !Was this really the young Madame, their original target? Or was she an imposter, a trained assassin like her?!With a gun above her head, it was futile to struggle. However, the maid smiled instead."Even if you killed me, you won't escape this place. The plan might have failed but you will still die." The maid thought Suzie was just an impostor who had the same appearance as that target.Suzie frowned. Just as she was about to interrogate her, there was a loud bang.The sky lit up.The sound of fireworks echoed in the whole villa while masking any sounds within the area. "It must have started." The maid said with a laugh.Suzie paused.Amidst the continuous sound of fireworks, there was a series of loud 'bangs'. Suzie

    "How come you failed again! What is so difficult in killing just one bitch!"Inside the living room of the Thomson family, Reyna scolded the man who was kneeling on the ground.The banquet had ended grandly with dozens of fireworks lighting up the night sky. It was such a splendid scene. The Thomson family cheerfully sees off the guests.No one noticed an anomaly.After the guests left, Reyna who was accompanied by Venice and Bianca went to the guest room where Suzie was supposed to be unconscious.They were thrilled and excited. They were so ecstatic that they did not notice the strange silence of their surroundings.It was only Philip who noticed that the situation was strange when he couldn't see any of their people guarding the building.When the group saw the empty room, they finally noticed the strangeness.Where was Suzie?

    Inside the cabin, Javier's face was solemn as he put ointment on Suzie's kneecap. When his wife arrived yesterday, he did not notice that she was injured. Although he observed her keenly to see if she had any discomfort, Suzie's usual lively attitude and her bright way of narrating her day were the same as usual. It made Javier at ease. He was worried that the blood and gunfire would frighten her. But his wife doesn't seem to have any psychological shadow of the terrifying night. Suzie ate a lot and did not seem affected by what she had been through. So Javier was able to sleep peacefully that night with his wife in his arms. But when the morning came and Javier put the breakfast on the table, he noticed that Suzie's walking was a bit strange. When he asked her, she said her knee was slightly bruised. The worried husband wanted to check it with his own eyes. After lifting her trousers, Javier's face turned dark. What 'slightly bruise'? Her whole kneecap had turned violet!

    Can the money she will offer be enough to suppress Suzie's anger?Venice's mind quickly thought of other ways to make Suzie accept her deal.Suzie looked at them coldly, "How dare you show your face after what you did to me."Bianca wanted to argue but Venice pulled her to bow their heads and shed tears."I deeply apologize, Suzie! I did not know that things will turn out this way. Reyna is the one who planned it all. She only ordered us to make you come in the house but we did not expect that she will try to harm you! We deeply regret our actions!"Venice cried pitifully. She cried as if she was a victim too.Suzie looked at her bowed head and tears. She wondered why Venice did not enter the entertainment industry. She would have been famous for her acting skills.But Suzie could act too."Looked at me. Do you think by crying and apologizing you can erase what you did? I am sitting in a wheelchair!"Yena: "...."'You insist on sitting on a wheelchair even the doctor said you don't ne

    Javier checked the bruise on Suzie's knees. The bruise had lightened in color. His obedient wife followed his every advice which made him satisfied."Does it still hurt?" Javier asked as he massaged Suzie's leg carefully."It doesn't hurt anymore. You are taking great care of me so I recovered faster. But, I am still going to use the wheelchair in the mansion."Seeing the confusion on her husband's face, Suzie explained it to him. "I have some use of it so until I get what I want, I'll have to keep using it. You gave me such a great idea, husband." Suzie kissed him on the cheek in a good mood.Why shouldn't she be in a good mood when she got a briefcase filled with gold bars and the thirty percent share of the Thomson's for free? Suzie had never been this rich. She was so happy.Javier was stunned. Seeing Suzie's smile, he smiled too.He unfolded the hem of Suzie's pajama and kissed her on the forehead. "I am glad I am able to help. If you need more support, just tell me. My people

    In the bustling city of the Capital, Colton who was looking at the city below from the high-rise building listened to the head butler's report over the phone."It was Surge's people?" His cold eyes narrowed. "How sure are you?""The captain and his men had seen them up close. They recognized those people. They were the guards who escorted Mr. Piedrach to the banquet."The captain in charge of Suzie's safety that day had reported the whole matter to the head butler. The head butler investigated it personally before reporting it to Colton.As a meticulous person, the head butler started investigating the ambush on the road and the people who helped Suzie escaped. After confirming that it was indeed Surge's people who assisted Suzie in the banquet, he reported this matter to Colton.But there was one thing that he did not mention.The mysterious group that fought against Reyna's people on the road was suspicious.

    The news of Reyna's quick arrest reached Suzie. She expected that Reyna would do some tricks to delay the trial. But Reyna was caught so easily without giving any chance to deny the claims. Her doubt was soon answered. The head butler came in and told her that Colton was infuriated by what Reyna had done. So he personally asked the head butler to take care of it. Suzie was skeptical. There's no way Colton did that out of goodwill for her. Something must have happened that she wasn't aware of. "Thank you, Mr. Jonhnson. Please also give my thanks to my father-in-law." "Yes, Madame. I'll send Master your thanks." The head butler then glimpsed at Suzie, "But Madame, did Mr. Piedrach inquire you about something?" Suzie paused. She looked up at the head butler with an innocent face, "He asked if my husband is doing well. He told me to take care of him." "I see. Madame is reliable when it comes to taking care of the Eldest Master. You are also a fast learner and have adapted well to

    Suzie was sculpting in her free time when Yena came in. "Madame Suzie, the result of the trial is out. Reyna will be imprisoned for three years!" Suzie's hand paused. Then she continued carving. "Now that two annoying persons are out of my life, my days will become more peaceful." She commented nonchalantly. Yena pouted seeing Suzie's calm figure, "Madame, aren't you angry? That woman tried to kill you yet she was only punished for three years." "Three years might not be long but it is not short too. A lot can happen in three years. Besides, for a pampered lady like Reyna, she won't be able to stand being detained in a small room or live a commoner's life. Much more in prison." Suzie stated as her hand continued carving. "Even the prison she is in is much bigger and cleaner than the others, it could not compare to her luxurious villa. Her heart and body won't be at peace. " "Still, she will come out in three years. Aren't you afraid she will settle accounts with you? That wom

    Suzie smiled and kissed the twin's head. "Always remember that you two not only have us but you have each other. Keep looking out for each other like this as you two grow up, okay? Then Mommy will give you a lot of rewards." Hearing rewards, the two children's moods turned happy. "What rewards? Are we going to the ocean and dive with sharks?" "Are we going to fly in the air and meet Superman?" Suzie laughed. She really wished her children would never lose their innocence and their imagination towards the world. They could grow up strong and disciplined, but they should never lose their innocence toward life and their hope for the future. She would make sure of it. "Let me think about it." The two children talked about the rewards that were about to come while they held Suzie's hand. When Javier met them at the company's lobby, he could not help but smile at the scenery. The scenery of his wife and his two children laughing and smiling warmed up his heart. Life was full of ups a

    "Everyone, I appreciate your presence here. The reason behind gathering you all and convening this meeting on such short notice is to announce that my wife will be visiting." Tension hung in the air as Javier initiated the meeting. However, the revelation that followed left everyone in a state of surprise. Maintaining his composed demeanor, Javier continued, "Many of you had the opportunity to meet her at last year's opening ceremony. She expresses her regret that she couldn't personally greet each and every one of you on that occasion. My wife is a busy mother, her schedule is quite demanding. I kindly ask for your understanding in this regard." "Madame does not need to apologize." "Madame's kindness is truly remarkable. It's touching that she considers employees like us. We're genuinely grateful for her thoughtfulness." "There is no need to bother about us...." Those with a talent for flattery seized the opportunity to win favor. And their strategy proved effective.

    In the quiet embrace of dawn's gentle touch, the sea awoke from its slumber, its vast expanse stretching out as far as the eye could fathom. The horizon, adorned with hues of soft amethyst and pale rose, held a promise of the spectacle to come. A delicate, cool breeze carried the faint scent of salt and adventure, caressing the senses like a whispered secret. Suzie tiptoed out of the bedroom and washed her face downstairs. She then busied herself in the kitchen. It had been two weeks since the couple had stayed on the island, and there hadn't been a single day when Suzie woke up early to prepare breakfast. Partly because it was Javier's fault for keeping her up late, but whenever she did wake up, Javier had already cooked breakfast and cleaned the kitchen. Even the dishes were taken care of by Javier. There wasn't much else for Suzie to do but watch her handsome, gorgeous husband handle the chores. Suzie appreciated his efforts. However, she also wanted to showcase her cooking ski

    Suzie woke up, feeling an ache in her lower body. She opened her eyes and saw sunlight peeking in through the curtains.How long had it been since she was out?She slowly sat up straight and felt the stinging sensation again. She couldn't help but blame the man once more for being too fierce last night.It was as if the married couple had a connection; Javier appeared at the door, holding a warm glass of water.He looked surprised to see Suzie awake. He hurriedly walked in and handed her the water."You're awake. How do you feel?" Guilt and self-blame were evident on Javier's face. He knew that he had been too rough last night.Suzie wanted to scold him, but seeing him like this, her heart softened. Still, she glared at him. "You were indeed too rough last night."Javier gently helped Suzie to her feet. "I'm sorry. I lost control. Mrs. Zhou kept you away from me for three days—how could I not miss you?" Javier couldn't help but drag Mrs. Zhou into the conversation.Three days without

    "....so just look at me and don't be nervous." A voice sounded on the front, breaking the fight that was about to start. Ambassador Milliard and Uncle Surge had already arrived in front of the bride's waiting room. At the door, Javier was almost hugging the door as he spoke with a pitiful voice, "I really wanted to see you. I haven't seen you for three days. Mrs. Luo is too strict." "We will see each other in a few minutes. So go to the hall and wait for me. Let my makeup artists work in peace," Suzie's voice sounded from inside the room. "...Alright. I miss you so bad, wife." Ambassador Milliard: "...." Uncle Surge: "...." Fortunately, they were the only people here. If other guests happened to pass by, Javier's image would completely shift from that of a peerless young CEO to that of a lovestruck fool, simping for his wife. The door swung open, and Javier, who had been clinging to it, almost stumbled forward. Mrs. Luo emerged from the room and deliberately avoided him. "Jus

    Many people began talking about the couple again. Some were a bit regretful that the wedding of the century was not publicized on the TV. They could only get some news and updates from the social media of the guests.In a salon, a group of young misses were browsing their phones as they were getting pedicures.One of the young ladies saw the post and the discussion. She sat up straight in shock and the pedicurist almost ruined the nail polish she was applying on her toes."Wow! The whole island?! This is amazing! The island is so beautiful! I want to go there!" The young woman squealed. She glanced at the young woman at the far end of their group."Bianca, Mr. Albretch has gifted a very massive and beautiful island to your sister. We can go there, right?"Bianca was also browsing her phone. Even though she did not want to see the news about the wedding, everyone was talking about it and the photos from the island kept showing up on the hot search. She naturally saw this discussion.Wh

    The sun hung low in the sky. The sea, a vast mirror of shimmering azure, stretched as far as the eye could see, its waves whispering secrets to the shore. Glistening flecks of sunlight danced upon the water's surface, a prelude to the symphony of colors that was about to unfold.The gentle lull of the waves created a serene backdrop, a tranquil cadence that set the rhythm for the impending ceremony.Seagulls soared gracefully above, their calls mingling with the rustling of palm fronds swaying in the warm breeze. The air held a hint of salt, making people feel as if they were in the sea's embrace, welcoming all who had gathered to witness this union of souls.At the water's edge, a carefully crafted boarding ramp stood adorned with seashells and diaphanous fabrics that fluttered in harmony with the wind. There was red carpet for the guest who embarked from their private boats.Delicate petals, kissed by sunlight, were scattered along the sandy aisle, guiding the way to the heart of th

    ..... While Suzie was busy pampering herself, Javier, the groom, was also solving some things on his own. He took a break from his busy schedule and visited the City Z penitentiary. City Z's prison had the maximum security in the country where high-profiled criminals with heavy chargers were assigned to. Because of Colton's identity and the long list of his punishment, he was assigned to this place. "Inmate 1206, you have a visitor!" A correctional officer banged on a certain cell's door with his baton. A thin man stood up with a confused expression. He followed the correctional officer to the visiting area. When he saw the person through the partition glass, the thin man paused. The compliant look on his face shifted for a moment. Javier was sitting on the other side with a calm gaze. He pointed at the telephone beside the partition glass. The correctional officer pushed the thin man, "Inmate 1206, you only have fifteen minutes." The thin man had no choice but to sit. He hes
