Jo was standing in front of the mirror in the one-shoulder dress Gerald had bought. This black dress with sequins fits perfectly on her slender body. Mermaid-style skirt further beautifies her body shape.

 Actually, she can look perfect with this dress, especially with matching bracelets and earrings. But when he remembered this outfit was a gift from Gerald, the image of perfection immediately faded.

 “Humph!” She sighed, complaining.

 This choice is hard, but must be lived because this has become his decision. For the sake of Nicko, who always sacrifices his pride as a man in the Windsor family’s house, she will be Gerald’s wife whose fate will not be good.

Since dinner last night you’ve lost your cheer. Have I done something wrong or offended you?” Chad asked as he drove his sports car.Cathy took a deep breath, then started her story.“Would you mind not feeling something strange at dinner last night?” Cathy asked, looking straight ahead.“What strange thing? Isn’t this a family dinner, and your sister has an important announcement to tell,” Chad replied, still concentrating on driving.“That’s precisely why I said something was strange.

A sport car was parked there, and that’s when a glimmer of hope appeared in Jo, it was Chad’s car, possibly Cathy was at home. But when she saw the man who wrapped his arms around her waist, her hopes were dashed.“No… I can’t complain to anyone. Nicko’s safety is at stake,” Jo thought, trying to give herself strength.“Jo, remember, never try to argue me. Do as I say, you know that—”“Nicko’s life is at stake if I disobey you.

But thanks to Kyle Brenan’s ingenuity, everything was revealed.He is Devon Watts who once disguised himself as Nicko and used the wealth of the Lloyd family to get pleasure. He always spent a lot of money to give to his parents and siblings.“You know him, Young Master?” Russell asked.Although he worked to look after the Lloyds, Russell never met Devon.

    "So this is your doing?" asked Nicko angrily. This time her face was red and her eyes were staring intently ahead."Ha ha ha why? Does this sound painful to you? It's good that this sounds painful to you. At least this way you will know who you are dealing with, and you can think again about betraying my daughter!”Watson, you! Nicko rage. This time he was really angry that he couldn't say anything else. His hands began to clench tightly and cursed at the man who called him. No one ever thought that Robert Watson, Camilla's father, was involved in kidnapping his wife and child now.“You bastard Watson, what do you want! I warned you that I would never betray your daughter. It was just a silly game in childhood!” Nick replied.“Silly childhood game you say? It's a shame that until now my daughter still expects you and I still think of you as my son-in-law. I rejected several men including Matthew Young who is now completely independent for you but instead you maintain your stupid marri

    The man Josephine knew folded his arms across his chest and walked over to Josephine. "You wanna know why I'm here? Of course because I want to meet you sweetheart.”Of course, that man was Gerlad Jones, the most selfish man Josephine had ever known.“Aren't you tired of bothering me all the time? Don't you already know that you and I are no longer related?" Josephine replied curtly.Gerald immediately crouched down and leveled his position with Josephine. This time he gently touched Josephine's cheek and disgusted her former lover.Josephine seemed to push away Gerald's hand which kept trying to touch her. The more Josephine dodged the more he liked to tease her.“Your skin is still smooth and soft, only now you are a little different. You seem a bit stocky. Is it possible that you're already pregnant with that jerk's child?” asked Gerald as he whispered in Josephine's ear and started licking it.Josephine shuddered in horror, she almost admitted that she was now pregnant.

Lately, Nicko has been busy with all his own activities and also the world of medicine that he just got. Now they also thought of taking a break, after all last night Jo had said that she wanted to share.With the help of Owen and Jacklyn, they spread out a table and put some food boxes there which will be given to anyone who needs them for free. This time it wasn't just Jo who looked so happy, but also Ian, because he hadn't spent time with his adoptive father in a long time.As soon as Nicko finished clearing the table and putting down some food, a middle-aged woman in shabby clothes came up to them.

In the past, he underestimated the Watson family because they had an economy class below him.Especially with Nicko, he had never taken the young man into account at all. Precisely thinks Nicko is like a pest that must be eradicated immediately. But now he is the pest. Even Chuck who became his ally also blamed him.“Chuck, you don't think about me anymore? Don't you remember our previous good relationship?" asked Master Young in a voice that sounded quivering with sorrow.Chuck shook his head and said again, “Didn't you hear what my uncle said earlier? We Watsons absolutely do not welcome a liar. Now you better get out of here!”"Chuck you,—" Andrew no longer continued his words. Instantly his lips were numb and could not say anything else.It was then that Mr. Watson immediately called his housekeep

At that time he had seen the ravaged state. Everything was full of trash and no one was there.He walked unsteadily, but suddenly a waiter came to chase him, "Sorry Mr. Young, this is the bill for tonight's event!"It was then that Andrew Young immediately patted his forehead and muttered that he had almost forgotten the bill he had to pay off. When renting this place, he only paid half of the total banking services ordered by him.Currently, he can still breathe a sigh of relief because, in his account balance, there is still money remaining for the cost of paying off this event. But after that, he didn't know what to do. Not even sure I could buy a plane ticket back to Northern Hill.The only way back to Northern Hi

    Andrew Young was struck by the statement of his former bodyguard. What's more, they actually restrained him and made him no longer able to move and bait the people who were now hunting him.In fact, now that he's really stuck, no one can help him. Wanted to scream and ask Matthew for help but now the young man is not with him anymore. Then, Mr Watson, he should be a man he can rely on. While Chuck is actually an ally of his. But their positions were too far away and it was impossible for her to scream.Even if he had shouted for their help, before Chuck had come here he would have been battered and bruised.Now all he could do was bully his former bodyguard again into protecting him. The bodyguards he had dismissed were a bunch of chubby bums. By giving them even a glimmer of hope, they would definitely move to protect him, no matter how difficult the obstacles he had to face.“Hey you guys, quickly save me! Do your duty as a bodyguard. Don't act stupid and piss me off so you guys tot

    Andrew Young smiled and shook his head, “Of course not sir. That price is a very commensurate price for what you get.”“Humph, you must want to rob us by paying such a large fee! I don't want to buy!” exclaimed one of the visitors.Andrew Young smiled sarcastically and said, “I have no intention of robbing you. I set a fair price as you can see at Mr. Watson's birthday party, and also the changes in me. You all have even touched me and felt the difference. So I think 2.5 billion is really worth it.”The visitors who surrounded him also spoke like a buzzing beetle. After that, he spoke again by giving an explanation of everything. “Don't all of you know that in our youth we spend a lot of time working hard, thinking about many things even makes us forget to eat and lack sleep. Often we have to eat fast food to save time. Don't you all realize the consequences of our old habits? Gradually everything becomes a disease that accumulates and paralyzes the cells in our body.
