"Jeremi, do you want to take a picture together with Luna's dad?" "Will Luna beat me?" "No she won't." Meanwhile, Luna was using Nathan for 'business' while children were lining up for a photo with him, each photo cost 50 dollars. Nathan was reluctant to show his face for 'business', but Luna had become so good at it that her little bag was bulging with all the money she was collecting in secret. Ryan was recording accounts, Desmond was in charge of maintaining order, and Akosua was in charge of taking pictures since she had a good eye for it. This tenacious yet illegal team continued to grow stronger even though they had been banned a few times, they even managed to hire several new employees with very clear internal division of responsibilities. The kindergarten had turned a blind eye toward their illegal activities since Luna was the class representative and was very authoritative. Ever since her popular dad went on 'Where Are We Going, Dad?', her popularity grew tremendousl
Shortly after, they arrived at Nathans Villa. "Wow, only big families would have so much cured meat!" Whenever Rex came to visit during this time each year, he'd lament about the amount of cured meat in Hilda's house, they could practically eat it as rice. Jerome had also arrived, it was his second visit, but he hadn't expected Hilda to make so much cured meat at home. He felt an unusual sense of familiarity in this place as he looked up at the bright red meat that hung above him. Then, he closed his eyes and smelled the air as his mind was filled with this unknown familiarity. What a strange feeling.. He opened his eyes. With a composed demeanor, he smiled and asked, "Why does your family make so much cured meat?" Connie replied, "When my husband was alive, cured meat was his favorite." After that, she looked up at the hung cured meat and smiled, looking as if she had seen the person who lived in her memory through the cured meat in front of her. Jerome turned to look at Co
Jeremi cried loudly as he opened his mouth and looked at Bruce with a pained expression. He looked like he wanted to say something, but a gurgling sound came from his throat. Bruce was terrified. "What's wrong with you, Jer? Don't freak me out!" Jeremi's mouth opened wide as his legs stiffened and his fingernails dug deeply onto Bruce's neck and drew blood. Tears kept streaming down from his face when all of a sudden, Jeremi spat a mouthful of blood all over Bruce's clothes. Jeremi is vomiting blood! Everyone was taken aback by the sudden scene as Nathan urged Hilda to take the children away. Meanwhile, Luna glanced back with concern. "Get the doctor and Anthony!" Nathan yelled at Linux while carrying Jeremi. Linux rushed toward the doghouse to get Anthony, who was busy playing with his phone. Connie watched Nathan carry Jeremi into the infirmary as she and Bruce paced anxiously in front of the door. When Hilda left the children inside the house and came out, she saw the priv
Meanwhile, both Sahara and Mrs. Damien were screaming and crying by the side. "Give me back my brother!" She cried sadly, but it just seemed false and malicious in Hilda's eyes. Judging by Salem's reaction, it probably wasn't him. After all, Jeremi was his only direct descendant, so Salem would never harm him. Connie and Hilda unanimously glanced toward Sahara, who was desperately crying on the side… Some people have a history with such incidents... The policemen also felt that Connie was at fault, but Connie was a powerful woman in the spotlight and in the field of energy, so it would seem inappropriate to arrest her directly. "Ms. Frimpong, about this.." Connie glanced at the police officer and said considerately, "This is a matter between our Family." The policeman felt goosebumps all over him. He was afraid to deal with rich families and their inner conflicts. Sahara jumped out and yelled, "This is no longer considered a family matter, she kidnapped my brother!" Hilda im
Hilda carried Luna upstairs and came back down to find Rex and Thomas huddled on the sofa. Thomas was still awake while Rex was sleeping soundly with Cash in his arms. "You should get some sleep in the guest room, Thomas." Thomas opened his eyes and said, "I can't sleep. Every time I close my eyes, all I can see is Jeremi vomiting blood." Hilda sighed and sat next to him. "If I hadn't brought him back, maybe none of this would've happened." Thomas laughed at her strange thoughts. "You should stop blaming yourself. You weren't the one who harmed him." However, Hilda could neither laugh nor sleep, whenever she closed her eyes, all she could see was Jeremi vomiting blood.. It was almost dawn when Nathan got home. Since Jeremi's situation was too serious and many hospitals were afraid to accept him, Linux had to send him to Jordan Town in Africa. Fortunately, the freezing process had prevented his body from deteriorating any further, so there was a ray of hope for Jeremi. Now, it
Not daring to look Hilda in the eye, he pretended to subconsciously look somewhere else and answered, "That's for Anthony." Hilda stopped asking questions upon hearing this. Anthony's health problems were very obvious, and nobody knew what would happen to him in the future. What if he suddenly collapsed like Jeremi one day? No one had expected the cryogenic equipment to come in handy only a few days after its arrival this time. After a soul stirring fight against death, the equipment finally gained some time for Jeremi, so it seemed that this cryogenic equipment was quite useful. Perhaps it could be used to extend Anthony's life as much as possible when Anthony was at death's door! Hilda couldn't describe what she felt about Anthony, she couldn't say that she hated him since he had repented. However, she couldn't say that she didn't hate him, for the best years of her life, including all the sadness and sweetness, were gone just like that because of him. She couldn't say that sh
As Salem looked up at the sky, the ice cold and pure white snowflakes fell on his face, even his tears froze. Is this karma? He had kneeled here last time to demand 'justice' for his 'son', but he never expected to kneel here once again on this day. This time, though, he must seek justice for his son even if he had to sacrifice his life for it! Now that his son was gone, it could be said that he would die heirless, he'd rather fight against Connie at the risk of mutual destruction! He would never resign himself to fate. Were the authorities going to turn a blind eye to such a serious homicide that happened right in Taadi City? "My brother! My poor brother!" Sahara wailed at the top of her voice. Holding Jeremi's memorial tablet downstairs, she swore tearfully, "Hilda! Connie! You two will get what you deserve for killing my brother! You two tried to deceive everyone by concealing the truth from those above and below yourselves, but do you think you can cover up your sins forev
"Son! My son! You guys killed my son, so give my son back to me! Give him back to me!" Salem wailed indistinctly. He reached out his hand and tried to grab Hilda, but Francis, who was next to her kicked him aside.Hilda looked at Salem as he rolled about on the ground.She found him to be both wretched and detestable, so she decided not to care about him anymore.As a parent, she couldn't understand why someone would be so cruel as to inflict harm on his son again and again. She didn't know if Salem had a hand in the attempt on Jeremi's life this time, but Salem had done so before. Even if he didn't do this himself, he probably had acquiesced in this.Walking up to the police car, she thanked the police officers on duty. "Thank you for your hard work, comrades. I'll send these people back. I'm so sorry for troubling you guys to keep watch here in such cold weather."The police officers were already freezing for a long time. Seeing how Hilda's attitude was so nice and that Sahara and S
Three months later, the five generations of the huge family were gathered happily together in Nathan's Villa of the Imperial. Old Master Clemon, who was still alive and kicking, held in his arms junior Klaus with a broad smile on his face, while Zis was also all smiles as he held the other junior Klaus. Nathan was staring at Klaus hostilely. "Mr. Klaus, pardon me, but I'll make sure to cut you up into pieces if you get any closer to my daughter!" He held a chilly gaze while asserting his presence. All of a sudden, there was a fierceness about him. However, Klaus only gave him a smirk. "Haha, I don't think you have any say in this, Mr. Clemon." On the contrary, Connie seemed to side with Klaus, as she began chiding Nathan. "You should keep your mouth shut! The kids know what they're doing!" Although Nathan seemed to have backed down, he was still glaring at Klaus. Without warning, Zis, who was the eldest of the in laws, put on a stern look on his face while lecturing Connie, "M
Just like that? Why does she sound so nonchalant about it? My daughter was only six years old when she slept with a twenty year old guy! As her mother, shouldn't she have stopped her? "Times have changed. Besides, the kids are all grown up now, so isn't it normal to have desires? Don't you worry, as I gave her detailed guidance beforehand, as well as showed her educational videos to teach her more about sex." Hilda explained. Nathan's face blanched, wanting to just faint once more. However, Hilda went on. "Linux even developed a condom that helps relieve the pain, as well as increase the pleasure one experiences during sexual intercourse. It will also alert the users if it detects a virus. Besides, Klaus did a checkup beforehand to ensure that he was clean." "I also told him to be careful so as to not hurt Luna before I agreed to let them have sex." There was a livid expression on Nathan's already pale face. Has the world undergone so much transformation during the past ten year
Justin stood in a corner in abjection before suddenly laughing in a self deprecating manner. He turned around to look for Anne, only to find her still actively trying to approach Luna in an attempt to strike up a conversation with her. Never in her wildest dreams had she expected the girl to be Luna Clemon, the daughter of a security guard whom she despised. After Klaus entered the venue, he didn't even spare a glance at the other ladies present for the occasion, save for Luna, the girl who was the center of attention. As the main protagonist who made her appearance after everybody else, the ball began after Luna showed up. She led the first dance with Giry, who moved in a coquettish manner throughout the entire dance due to how elated he was. After the first dance, some of the guests left the floor to get some rest, while others continued dancing after switching partners. Giry was forced to let go of Luna after that and wait for the next dance on the sidelines as he shouldn't be
There were a lot of prestigious people present for the occasion, including male guests who were members of royal families. Klaus Adams, whom Justin didn't manage to meet, would also be there, so he could seize the opportunity to connect to people of status. Luna won't be able to provide me with such an opportunity. He took a sip out of his wine to forget the feelings of bitterness within him while he admitted his defeat. I don't belong to Luna, nor is the opposite possible, as we belong to two different worlds. All of a sudden, there was a commotion in the hall as the hosts from Smith Group showed up. Jerome Bowen and Connie Frimpong were the ones to show up first, whereas Hilda Adams and Linux Jordan followed behind. They're here! The crowd moved in their direction with anticipation in their minds. The main protagonist will be here soon! The girl who has a net worth of hundreds of billions, as well as being the heir of prestigious families including the Damien Family, the Clemon
Anne also received an invitation to attend the ladies' ball, which was something that someone at the bottom of the social pyramid would never get to know and join in on, they practically lived in two different worlds. It wasn't until then that he knew how different they were. While Justin would never eat street food with Luna, her current boyfriend was willing to do so. Gritting his teeth, Justin left without a word, as if having made a decision. This time, he was finally able to leave her behind, even if they met each other again in the future, he would treat her like a stranger. There was a time when he used to want to spend his life with Luna, as he never met someone as intelligent and kind as her. Even if she was no better than other people, she was at least better than Anne in both regards. However, they could never get together. His family would never agree to the match due to the fact that Luna couldn't help his family climb the social ladder like how Anne could. It wasn't
A month later, the military training ended with Giry having bruises all over his face. On the other hand, both Luna and Klaus had a tan when they returned. They had also gotten to the stage of holding hands all the time with each other. As usual, Connie maintained her deathly glare when she met Klaus. She had arranged a group of people to join the military training, hoping that they could teach Klaus a lesson, but all of them wound up being intimidated by him. Geez! That bunch of cowards! Even Connie herself was beginning to acknowledge that she no longer stood a chance against Klaus by now, say less of anybody else. She was getting older, so it was time to hand things over to the next generation. Now, Klaus was the young, determined, and ambitious one, whereas Connie had aged, so she was no longer the former's opponent. Therefore, she could only watch as Klaus dated her granddaughter. After the military training, Luna's eighteenth birthday was approaching fast, which would mark
Jumping with joy, Luna latched herself to Yaa. "Marie! When did you arrive?" Yaa warmed up to Luna upon seeing the latter. "We'll be welcoming the freshers today. They seem to be a little disobedient! How dare a bunch of newbies be so arrogant?" The girls walked away while they chatted, but Yaa didn't speak with Klaus when they saw each other, as they both considered it sufficient as a greeting when they exchanged looks earlier. Therefore, Klaus pushed his bike while walking beside the girls as they spoke, all the while mentally exclaiming on how Yaa had bloomed into her true self by staying with the Cannons, that was where she truly belonged. Yaa was feared among the freshers. Furthermore, Justin Clark had his name called out directly by her earlier, so he almost burst into tears out of his intense fear for her. At that moment, Adwoa appeared out of nowhere to scare him. "Aha! You're done for! The general called for you! Justin, you should be prepared! The following month will b
The moment Connie's words were heard, Luna's reaction was the most intense. "Grandma, what do you mean by that? Why are you talking about him being worthy or otherwise? We're just friends!" Although we... we kissed the other time, neither of us ever brought that day up again. Therefore, they were still at the beautiful stage where things were fuzzy. Hence, Connie's proclamation burst the bubble, making the situation exceedingly awkward. Klaus, who was eating, stilled for a moment, but he said nothing. Upon seeing this, Connie was in seventh heaven. Finally, I've found his Achilles heel! Putting on her authoritative air as an elder, she loftily asserted, "My granddaughter will never marry a man who doesn't even have a high school diploma." All at once, the atmosphere turned awkward, and Luna's face flushed bright red from mortification. At this time, Hilda hurriedly smoothed things over, exclaiming, "What are you saying, mom? What's this about marrying and all?" She should at last l
The old son in law was indeed zealous, for he brought back gifts for everyone, including Jerome, Connie, and Luna's uncles. Despite Connie's staring match with Klaus earlier, she hugged her gift to her chest, reluctant to put it down for even a second. Klaus's gift to her was a handwritten score from her favorite pianist back when she was young, so she truly loved it. Meanwhile, Adwoa got a set of Western European non mainstream fashionable clothes, and she seemed besotted as well. Klaus even had gifts for Luna's friends, including Giry, Dean, and the others. He distributed the gifts one by one. At the end of it, he took out a tiny gift and waved a beckoning hand toward the back of the house. "Kater!" Woof! A husky scampered out in a mad flurry. Then, Klaus unwrapped the gift to reveal an adorable ball. Gratified, Kater left with it in its mouth. "Tangerine! Orange! Lemon! Gordon! Goldstein!" Upon hearing their names, the few orange cats padded over, meowing all the way. Klaus
