At that moment, Sonia took it upon herself to bargain with the venders by the roadside."Sir, it's already noon and look at your vegetables. The leaves are turning yellow and the stems are withering. If you don't sell it at 1.5 per kilogram, no one would buy it. Besides, the governor has already sent his men to patrol around the streets," she urged with her arms crossed. Back then, Sonia was used to bargaining for her ingredients in the wet market, so this came naturally for her. Hearing her latter words, the street vendor sighed. "Fine. Deal."She grinned, displaying two dimples on the sides of her cheeks. Daniel resisted the urge to snort. He didn't expect her to be so stingy that she actually put some effort in convincing the man to cut the price in half, but he liked a woman who valued her money. As long as she was willing to cooperate with him, he would definitely give her a considerable compensation for her time with him.Sonia picked up three kilograms and gave the seller twent

"I'm Mandy, don't you remember me? Six years ago, during the trip to the Himalayas, my traveling companions and I came across some difficulty. It was you who saved us."It was not until then that Daniel realized what she was referring to. Yet, this compliment didn't make him look proud. He continued to have an indifferent expression on his face. Shrugging his shoulder, he let go of the matter.However, hearing this, Sonia walked over and patted him on the shoulder. With a playful look on her face, she said, "I wasn't aware you had gone to the Himalayas. It sounds amazing!" Mandy had repeated this story a million times in the past. It was something she enjoyed narrating every now and then. They had also named this story as the independent hero climbing the mountains and rivers. The way he had hit eight gangsters all by himself was the part she told with a relish.Daniel gently pinched the tip of her chin. "There are still a lot of things you don't know."Looking at them, Mandy couldn't

"Sonia, we thought you would be devastated because of James's upcoming marriage. You seem well though, and we didn't expect you to be so cheerful like now. Have you really moved on?" Mandy asked deliberately.At the mention of James's name, Eva suddenly coughed as if to remind Mandy not to aggravate Sonia.Sonia's eyes darkened instantly. It was true that she didn't have much time to think about James after spending the last few days quarreling with Daniel. She realized just now that Daniel's troublesome attitude was actually a blessing in disguise. Since there was no chance for her to end up with James anyway, it would be a waste to think about him."I've decided to concentrate on my work. I won't date someone before the age of 25." She vowed solemnly.Eva wagged a disapproving finger at her. "You can't miss the opportunity to pursue love just because of career! Your youth and good looks are wasted on you if you keep that up. Don't think that you'll be pretty forever. The best time t

The more Sonia thought about it, the more nervous she got. She almost jumped to her feet and tried to run away, but Daniel didn't go to her. Instead, he went straight to the fridge and took out a box of ice cream. "I just wanted to help you with this," he said.She took a deep breath, still petrified as he pointed at her temple with his index finger and said, "You think too much. But even if you wanted to do that, I still wouldn't want to because you feel like a dehydrated dry carrot when I touch you."Her face became bright red as he spoke. When she noticed the cheeky grin on his face and realized that he was actually teasing her, she got angry, scooped out some ice cream, and wiped it on his face.This guy was a neat freak, so she thought he would immediately run to the bathroom and take a shower. She absolutely did not expect him to fight back, but he scooped out some ice cream as well and smeared it all over her face.'You want to declare war on me? Fine! I'm not afraid of you at

She thought about it for a while and then sent a message saying, "Daniel, I won't cook tonight. Please arrive at Petrus Restaurant for a French dinner. See you at sharp eight o'clock. PS: If you stand me up, I am going to burn you alive."While reading this message, Daniel was in the cottage by the bay with his subordinate, William. A smile made its way to his face as soon as he read Sonia's text. It was an unnoticeable one yet William caught it since he knew his boss very well. Moreover, his boss seemed to be in high spirits lately. There was a new cheerfulness about him. He couldn't help but come to the conclusion that Sonia had a part in it. He was also stunned to see this change in his boss. No other girl had managed to placate him since he was indifferent to their feelings. Even the most beautiful women had no power over him.As the only person who knew the whereabouts of Daniel, he also knew about this absurd marriage.That day, Daniel was drunk and went back to get his identifi

"What are you doing?" Fabian was furious as she rushed over to the pair. She looked like a dragon who was about to spit fire.James let go of the woman in his arms. Although he was startled, he didn't look the slightest bit guilty. He knew for a fact that Fabian had always been obsessed with him. In fact, she was the one who had brought up the wedding. "Why are you here?""How could I not?" she snapped. A part of her wished that she could tear Sonia down with her own bare hands.Having no intention to argue with Fabian, Sonia turned. "I'm going in." However, just as she was about to leave, Fabian caught her wrist. Turning her around, she slapped the woman hard on her face.There was no way she was going to let the woman go! Especially after trying to seduce her husband! Fabian clenched her jaw as malicious thoughts filled her mind.In the black Bentley, Daniel glowered. His fists cracked at the sight, tearing through the dull silence in the car. Although Sonia deserved a lesson, he wa

With an obscene smile, the fat man began to unbuckle his belt.Knowing that she couldn't get free from the tight hold, tears of despair streamed down her face. "Daniel!" she sobbed out. She didn't know why he was the first person in her mind, but she yelled for him desperately.Closing her eyes and readying herself for the worse, an angry fist broke through the helpless night. Billy, the fat man, groaned in pain as he fell onto the ground like a motionless pig.Seeing this, the other three men let go of the girl and started to brandish their knives. Without another word, they rushed to the newcomer. They weren't any match for him. In just a few strokes, all three of them fell to the ground as they searched for their knocked off teeth.Sonia gazed at the man who had saved her. She squinted, not believing that it was actually Daniel who came to save her. When his arms wrapped around her, she could smell his masculine scent wafting around her nose. "Daniel," she sobbed. "You really came.

Mandy actually planned to stay in their house for the time being because her landlord had decided to sell her old apartment.Hearing that, Sonia's head was already hurting. If she knew her friend any better, her real purpose was to get close to Daniel.However, an icy guy like him wasn't planning on letting her stay over. The moment he heard of the news, his face darkened completely. In fact, what he wanted to do was walk over there and give her a piece of his mind.Seeing that he was about to drive the woman away, Sonia pulled him into the room in a hurry."Mandy will be moving out as soon as she finds a house. Just bear with her for a couple of days please," she begged, clasping her hands together."No," Daniel said coldly. It was obvious that he wasn't there to negotiate with her.Sonia gritted her teeth. She had wanted to try and persuade him nicely, but seeing as he wasn't responding to that, she went for another route. "Look, I'm the one who rented the apartment. Hell, I'm the o

Finney was feeling absolutely frightened. She picked up her phone, getting ready to call the police. Meanwhile, Sonia ran into the kitchen and took out a kitchen knife. She thought that if her cousin-in-law failed to deal with him, then she'd be able to scare him away using the knife.Daniel gasped and grabbed the knife from her hand at once, afraid that she would hurt herself by accident. "I'm here. What are you worried about?"Indeed, he was a very tall man. The strange man was no match for him. Once he caught sight of Daniel, he would probably be scared to death."Be smart later. If brother-in-law fails to deal with him, you should go out to rescue him." Sonia patted him on the shoulder."I think he will be fine." After he finished talking, Daniel got lost in thought. He had very sharp and keen eyes. It was almost as if he could see all of the secrets hidden in the dark that others couldn't see. He usually never cared about other people's affairs, but Finney was his wife's cousin,

Sonia smiled and touched his handsome face. "Although you seldom smile, I know what things make you smile.""Really?" He raised his thick eyebrows. "Tell me.""When you tease someone, you smile. When you play a trick on someone, you smile. When you make a fool of someone, you smile an evil smile. When you are unhappy, you sneer coldly with your mouth closed, and..." She trailed off and her eyelids flickered. When he looked at her like this, he smiled. His smile was real and very gentle.She liked to see his smile because she had never seen him smile to others that way, not even to Leila. It seemed like this smile was really exclusive to her. As a matter of fact, there was another reason why she didn't regret giving up Instituto Marangoni—if she hadn't given it up, she never would have met him."You're so into me, aren't you?" He said in a low and joking voice. Sonia blushed, but it was masked by the dim light."Don't flatter yourself." She turned over and buried her face into the pill

"I..." James wanted to say something but stopped after giving it a second thought. At first, he was forced by his mom to give up, and he was afraid that he was too young to give her a future. After that, he went into Bella. He couldn't do anything due to the strife between him and his family. And now, the only thing he could do was put aside his love for her. All of these turned into a kind of silent sorrow that choked his throat."I'll love you more and make up for everything that happened for the past five years," he continued.Sonia put on a smile that was full of sorrow, bitterness, and despair. He did love her, but he did not care about her at all. She had waited him for five years, and had actively confessed her love to him. However, he didn't welcome her in his arms, making her look like a big fool. After getting drunk, she married someone else and lost the most precious innocence that she had been saving for him."Did you ever think of me when you were about to marry Fabian? I

Enemies are bound to meet in a narrow alley. Fabian alone was a hurdle to deal with. And now, with Leila's arrival, things were bound to be harder. Sonia was consumed by fear.If Leila became an unfair judge, it could spoil Sonia's life.As expected, the points that Leila gave were very low, and she also pointed out a lot shortcomings. Relentlessly, she accused Sonia of not following the theme. She also said her work lacked creativity and essence.'What the hell!' Sonia shouted in her mind. According to her, Leila was a petty person who had used personal issues in the professional sphere. It was quite a low blow. On top of that, Daniel could be watching the show right now. 'Aren't you afraid that he will see the ugliness inside you?' she wondered.The two judges who had been bought off by Fabian's family also took the chance to add insult to injury. As ordered by Fabian, one gave her score five and the other gave her six.Even the host was shocked by the result.Even though Sonia and

Leaving the villa, Fabian went straight to Bella, hoping to find James. She had a lot of questions to ask him.James had already anticipated her arrival. Sitting on the main chair, he looked indifferent and there was a slight sneer on the corners of his mouth."How dare you give me the score eight whereas Sonia gets to have ten? After all, I am your fiancée! I deserve more than her!" She was writhing with both hatred and jealousy.Her words left him unmoved. Slowly, he took a sip of his tea and said, "I was considerate enough to have given you eight. If you hadn't been my fiancée, you would have received the score zero from me.""What... What do you mean?" Fabian stammered, unable to believe her ears. 'Did he actually said those words?' she wondered with fear."Don't think you can fool me. I know all about the dirty tricks you have used to win. And the worst part is, you didn't follow the original design. An average tailor would have done a better task than you. It is beyond me why yo

Daniel has always refused to talk about private matters. What was more, he also hated it when others made trouble out of nothing. She didn't want him to be annoyed, and she always knew exactly how she should act in front of him.But how could Sonia do whatever she wanted in front of him without hesitation?Knowing him, he should have hated this kind of woman the most, but how come there was no disgust in his face whenever he looked at her? How could he indulge her, even?"Dan, have you come up with a way to deal with Valery?" Leila asked as if she had thought of something. He had Sonia here and Valery in Dragon City. One was as cunning as a fox and the other was as vicious as a tiger. Leila couldn't feel at ease wherever he was."Not until her men have finished traveling the world," Daniel said with a sneer."I'll go back to Dragon City with you. Tell them that we're going to get married. After all, we used to be..." Daniel instantly interrupted her by saying, "Don't worry. I have fou

On the way back, Sonia’s excitement faded. She felt like she was breaking out in a cold sweat.Mandy told her that she had both good and bad news, but in Sonia’s mind, she didn’t hear any good news at all.‘Oh my gosh. No, no, no. I’m so doomed!’ Sonia realized she was holding her breath and found herself holding her face in frustration.She continued to have a monologue in her thoughts. ‘Why did James have to be one of the judges in this show? Why would I have to see him this way?And why does Fabian even have to be in the same competition as me?Her family is already so wealthy. She doesn’t need this, so why did she have to join? Ugh, it’s not going to be a competition anymore. It’s decided, right? I guess this will be like a walk in the park for her.James will obviously favor Fabian and give her the best scores while I’ll try so hard and it might not even matter!’ Sonia let out a heavy sigh. She felt exasperated at the thought that she couldn’t stop patting her face.Leaning back

In the camp area, the leader suddenly received a phone call from her boyfriend, who was working for the Weather Bureau. Apparently, the No. 5 wind ball had suddenly turned and condensed into a super typhoon, and it was coming towards them. She told others that they had to go back to the coast immediately, inevitably scaring the girls. They packed up their stuff and jumped on the boat. They were in such a hurry that the leader actually forgot to do a headcount.Only Mandy knew that there was one person who hadn't come back to the campsite.She didn't expect that God would help her teach this insidious green tea bitch a lesson. Well, she deserved to be stuck here and feel the violent storm all alone.Mandy sneered and followed everyone to the boat.Meanwhile, on a dark hillside, Sonia woke up.At once, she felt pain on her forehead and knees.She had no idea what had happened to her. All she knew was that she had been standing on top of the hill when someone pushed her from behind. She

There was a giant three-layer cake on the table. The bright candle light swayed in the wind, like the stars shining in the night sky."Happy birthday," a gentle voice said from behind.Today was her birthday? Shocked, Sonia looked at the calendar hanging on the wall. It was June 12th.'Oh my God! It really was my birthday,' thought she. She even forgot it herself, and she didn't expect that he would remember it!"Ice guy, how did you know that today is my birthday?" She turned around and looked at him. His cold face was tinted with the same color as the candle light, making it look very warm. The smile on his face was as charming as sunshine. It made ripples in her heart."It is written on our marriage certificate," he said. Then he held her by the shoulder and took her to the table. "Make a wish!"She nodded, put her hands together, and closed her eyes.What was her wish?Over the past five years, she had made the same wish on every one of her birthdays: she wished for James to like
