As soon as he heard this, Charlie asked Claire curiously, “What? She’s getting married today and she only informed you about it?”“Yes…” Claire replied. “She wants me to come and help her out. Otherwise, she really wouldn’t be able to handle everything on her own. I was originally planning to ask her to look for a few old classmates to help her prepare for her wedding. It would be great if they could come just to cheer her up too but she’s not willing to do that.”Charlie replied helplessly, “I guess she doesn’t want to lose face in front of too many of her old classmates. So, it’s actually understandable.”Claire nodded slightly before she said, “I have never seen her being so pitiful before. It is her most important wedding day but her own natal family and her in-laws are both giving her trouble…”As she spoke, Claire could only sigh as she said, “Charlie, in fact, I think I was really fortunate to marry you. If I was really forced by my family to marry a rich heir from a wealthy

At this time, a middle-aged man shouted in a cold voice, “This boy’s family is really bullying and taking advantage of others. You’re already pregnant with their grandchild and they aren’t even willing to give you any dowry at all. Aren’t they afraid that you’re going to abort the baby?”A young man replied, “Why would the Scotson family be afraid? They wish that my sister would abort the baby. This is because they despise and look down on my sister and they think that my sister isn’t worthy of marrying into their family.”After that, he continued speaking, “Sister, why does it seem as though you’re obsessed? Why do you have to marry that guy with the last name Scotson? That b*stard and his whole family are all so wicked! Why don’t you ask around our community and see if there are any other girls who did not receive a dowry from their in-laws when they were getting married? My good friend Samuel’s sister got married to an ordinary man from the next county and the guy’s family gave my

At this time, the abusive voice upstairs had already escalated.The middle-aged woman scolded angrily, “How did I even give birth to a wastrel like you? I worked so hard to support you and pay for your university education. You haven’t even made much money for our family for the past two years and now, you’re already rushing off to give birth to a child for someone else. If I had known that you’d be such an unconscionable person, then I should have thrown you away after I gave birth to you!”The young woman cried as she said, “Mom, the reason why I could attend university is entirely because I was relying on student loans! I’m still repaying the student loan right now. At that time, you did not even allow me to go to university. You even wanted to marry me off when I was just eighteen years old. You told me that the earlier a girl marries, the more valuable it will be!”“I tried my best to get admitted into university but you still refused to let me attend university. You even tried

After she was done speaking, she introduced Charlie to the young boy. “Francis, this is my husband, Charlie.”“Husband?” Francis asked in surprise. “Claire, you’re married already?”Claire nodded slightly before she smiled and said, “Yes, I’ve already been married for more than three years now. Where’s your sister? Is she at home?”At this time, a young girl with a five-fingerprint mark on her face came over as she faked a smile on her face and said, “Claire, you’re here!”This girl was also quite beautiful and she has a very good figure too. She was definitely someone from the upper middle class.However, the girl was obviously wearing a very cheap wedding dress. It could even be seen that some of the lacey parts of the wedding dress was already torn.A man and woman suddenly walked out of the room at this time. The couple looked like they were both in their early fifties and they had very cold expressions on their faces at this time. When they saw Claire, the couple looked at M

Charlie had not spoken all this while. However, when he saw Magnolia’s father picking up the rolling pin in his hand, he suddenly got very angry.It was fine if they were just making sarcastic and cynical remarks, scolding her, as well as attacking her personality. After all, he had simply accompanied his wife here to help her to marry off her high school classmate. So, all he wanted to do was to drive away and leave as soon as possible to complete the task of marrying her friend off.However, he really felt that it was intolerable when he saw the other party’s parents and younger brother acting like such assholes.Therefore, he stood in front of Claire and Magnolia in a very protective manner. After that, he stared coldly at Magnolia’s father as he said, “Do you know that all of your actions are illegal? Interfering in your children’s marriage is a freedom against morality. Moreover, personal attacks and insults, as well as your intention to sell your own daughter are also against

Even though Magnolia’s father was using all of his strength, he felt that he was hitting the rolling pin against hard steel. After that, there was a strong and violent vibration in between his thumb and index finger. He felt so much pain that he released the rolling pin immediately and he held onto his wrist as he yelled out in pain.When he looked at the rolling pin again, he realized that it was already broken into two!This really shocked Magnolia’s father.This man could actually break a rolling pin into half using his bare hands. Moreover, it seemed as though the other party was not in any pain at all. This guy was obviously a well-skilled fighter at first glance!How could he possibly afford to offend someone like this? What if he suffered a concussion after he punched him? Who could he reason things out with then? After all, he was just an old man with no money and no power at all. After getting beaten up, he would have no way to get anyone to avenge him either.As he thoug

Magnolia was still wiping the tears off her face when Charlie and Claire brought Magnolia all the way out of the community.Claire kept comforting Magnolia but Charlie did not step forward at all.After exiting the community, there were many people surrounding and competing to take pictures of the two cars that they had stopped by the side of the road.Charlie stepped forward to separate the crowd of people who were in front of the Aston Martin car. After that, he opened the co-driver’s seat and asked Magnolia to get into the car first.Magnolia was stunned when she saw the Aston Martin One-77 in front of her. She asked in surprise, “Claire, this car…”Claire smiled before she said, “My husband borrowed these two cars from his friend. Don’t worry, you’ll definitely be able to save face if we drive these two super sports cars to your in-laws’ house.”Magnolia was filled with guilt as she said, “Claire, I thought that your BMW would have been perfect. I really did not expect you to

“What the hell?”When Francis’s mother heard this, everything turned dark in front of her eyes!One hundred million dollars? What was this?Even if the other party had one million dollars, he would already be a very incredible rich man in her eyes. If he had ten million dollars, he would be a big and powerful figure that they could not afford to offend. If he had one hundred million dollars, he would be a god!What’s more, they did not just have a net worth of one hundred million dollars but they were actually driving two cars worth more than one hundred million dollars!As she thought about this, she hurriedly asked, “Are you telling me the truth? Are these two weird-looking cars really worth so much money?”Francis nodded as he tried to pull his mother up and said, “Do you think that I’d lie to you? Do you think that I don’t want a new house? But in this case, how can we even try to force it? Our family will suffer and be in deep shit if we offend a big and powerful figure!”F

As such, intent on keeping up his pretense, Jacob answered the phone, "Looking for me, Matilda?""Uh-huh," Matilda replied, and asked, "You didn't show up at Senior University, and your sub is saying you probably won't be coming for a while? Is that true?""Oh—right, that," Jacob quickly said. "Well, it's true—the gist of it is that the Association is getting busy with a project. As the vice president, I probably shouldn't be staying at Senior University all the time, right?""Heck, Mr. Bay called me last minute, telling me how busy we're going to be and that I was needed. That's why I had to go back, but I will head over to campus again when I have the time."Matilda knew right then that those were all excuses.However, she did not expose Jacob, instead asking, "Well, when are you free? So that I can send you my wedding invitation?""Oh, the invitation?" Jacob quickly chuckled. "You really didn't have to come to me—just pass it to Walker, my sub lecturer. He can pass it to me wh

The next afternoon, there was a sudden change of lecturers for the calligraphy class.Despite being the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, Jacob never showed up, instead getting a substitute instructor to replace him.Matilda had come with the invitation Yolden had written for Jacob, but seeing that Jacob wasn't at the lecture hall, she waited until the class was over to ask the sub, "Excuse me, can I ask why Mr. Wilson wasn't teaching this class?""He's busy at the association," the sub replied. "So, I'm taking over his class."Curious, Matilda pressed, "Then, would you happen to know when he will be coming?""Probably not for a while," the sub replied. "He delegated other classes to me as well, telling me that I could just stick to the PowerPoint slides."Then, he asked, "Do you have business with Mr. Wilson?"Matilda nodded. "Yes, but I can call him myself. Thank you."Leaving the lecture hall, Matilda called Jacob, who was goofing off in his office

On the other end, Matilda was left staring at Jacob's reply in confusion.She had presumed that Jacob would understand when she mentioned inviting his whole family that he should be coming up with an excuse to skip attending her wedding.That was the most ideal solution.As such, she was shocked that instead of playing along, Jacob's reply was short and blunt.[No problem. The four of us will be there!]Perplexed, Matilda was left wondering what Jacob meant. Was he really going to attend her wedding with Elaine?The thought left Matilda frowning as she absolutely didn't want to see Elaine—especially not at her own wedding.Yolden was writing an invitation when he saw the somber look on her face, and he couldn't help asking, "Is there a problem?""Jacob replied," Matilda admitted. "And he's saying that he will bring his whole family.""Really?" Yolden was confused too, as he was hardly as eccentric as Jacob. "But he's afraid of his wife and shouldn't be telling her at all…

Charlie was driving Jacob to Thompson First when the latter received the text from Matilda.Seeing that they were reaching the front gates, Jacob promptly snapped at Charlie, "Charlie, stop the car now!"Charlie did so and asked in curiosity, "What's wrong?""Matilda just texted me," Jacob replied, showing the chat log between him and Matilda.Charlie was just glancing at it nonchalantly when he saw that Matilda's contact name was 'AAA July Florist'."Wait, why is that Aunt Matilda's contact name?" He exclaimed in surprise."I changed it."Jacob explained gingerly while reading through the text Matilda sent. "Her profile picture is an iris, so I changed her contact name to a florist since I'm mostly worried Elaine would peek into my phone.""Anyway, she's asking if I'm attending her wedding with Yolden. They would send us an invitation if I accept, extended to our whole family… what do you think I should say?"Charlie asked in return. "You're planning to skip it, aren't you? T

Then, Matilda suggested, "How about this—I'll ask him before deciding." "I'll pass on inviting the rest of my former classmates too. They're too vain and love comparing, so I'd rather not have anything to do with that. Also, there are our Korean friends who have it together, and they were telling us to invite them if we were going to get married. We have to keep our promise, right?""Yeah—then, it's basically decided. Aside from Charlie, we shall invite our colleagues and Korean friends while we wait for an answer from Jacob."Yolden nodded and said, "Now, I'll talk about the honeymoon—cut me short if you have a different opinion."Matilda nodded, resting her chin on her hands and smiling. "Shoot. I'm all ears."Feeling a little embarrassed by Matilda's glowing stare, Yolden took a sip of his ice water before continuing, "My idea is to head to the States for our honeymoon after the wedding…"He trailed off, staring at Matilda and waiting for a response.However, she was merely

"Oh, Jacob…?"Matilda chuckled awkwardly. "Just today, he offered to buy me dinner, but I said I didn't have the time, and I also told him about our wedding… So, we should invite him since he's aware of it.""Jacob offered to buy you dinner?" Yolden exclaimed in surprise. "Did he say why?""Nope," Matilda shrugged, smiling. "Probably just dinner between old classmates."However, she was actually smart enough to guess Jacob's intention even though Jacob was inviting her somewhere near campus. That was why she had also mentioned she was marrying Yolden while turning down Jacob, all so that he would give up on her.After she had managed to get over their past fling completely, she didn't want to give Jacob false hopes before she walked down the aisle.In the same regard, she didn't want to worry Yolden, and therefore, had deliberately discouraged Jacob.Be that as it may, Yolden was smart too.He knew about Matilda and Jacob's past and that her son, Paul's full name was Paul Jam

Before Charlie had arrived, Jacob was still furious that Matilda would soon marry Yolden.After Charlie came, however, he was instead worried that Matilda would send him a wedding invitation.Meanwhile, Matilda and Yolden were discussing their list of guests.They had different social circles, but most of their friends were Stateside, and they only had some distant relatives in this country.Still, they had colleagues in Aurous Hill. Matilda had classmates too, but she was out of touch with them aside from Jacob, whom she often met.Still, as they discussed who should be invited, Matilda first suggested, "Let's go through everyone. First, our Stateside friends… I don't think we should tell them at all since it's a long journey, and inviting them would seem tactless. What do you think?"Yolden nodded, smiling, "I was just thinking the same thing. We're close with our Stateside friends and always keep in touch, but inviting them to our wedding might be a stretch. We'd just hit a wa

With that being said, once Matilda was thrown in the mix, Elaine would suddenly become an African honey badger, with every bit of black air force energy that was implied.As such, if Jacob had managed to be brave and take that one step back then, Charlie would have tried to help, stopping Elaine from harassing Jacob or Matilda.However, the reality was that Jacob had to bungle the chance when Matilda offered it to him.That was why the best option was for Jacob to understand that he couldn't get together with Matilda now so that he would feel much better.And since he had always been a coward, Charlie's slight intimidation cleared his head considerably.He then sighed, "Well, that's just life—you don't always get what you want, and you should never try to claim what you couldn't. I couldn't bring myself to choose Matilda over thirty years ago, so not being together now only makes sense.""Now, I can only pray that Elaine never finds out… or at least that things don't get out of h

Then, Jacob quickly pressed, "Dear boy, maybe you could stay a few days instead of taking more jobs. At least you could be there to stop my wife if she snaps.""Sure," Charlie chuckled, cheerfully agreeing to it. "Don't worry—Claire's returning in a couple of days too, and you'll be fine with us around. You're cheating in your mind, anyway…"Pausing, he then added a reminder, "But if she's really furious, just bear with her beatings and clawings. Live and let live, as they say."That left Jacob sulking, however. "What the hell! If I knew this would happen, I should have just taken her to court and divorced her openly! That way, I'd definitely make things work with Matilda. Yolden wouldn't even stand a chance!"Charlie had to keep a straight face. "Now, you're not quite right there—don't you know what would happen to your wife if you took this to court?"Jacob snorted coolly. "Elaine would just snap at me, hit me, and make sure I don't get a cent in the divorce. That's no big deal—
