There were a number of people who wanted to cry today. It was common to see newlyweds smiling, but it was rare to see the elderly in tears. Connie had red rimmed eyes. Although her grandchild was already five, she still insisted on living with Hilda until now because she just could not bear to let her go. They had lost each other when she was little. While she was all powerful and standing at the peak, her daughter was being trampled on by people and struggling to survive in the dirt. It had only been a few years since they found each other. Before she could even adore her to her heart's content, she was going to leave to some place far away with an unknown man. She was leaving her to go build her own little family. How could Connie accept it? She still owed her too much. Despite wanting to keep her by her side forever, she knew that Hilda was going to get married sooner or later. Once she started to build her own family, she inevitably had to leave. Connie still lived with he
The wedding ceremony was rather shabby and only around thirty guests were invited. Nathan still made a special invitation to Jerome because he was Hilda's biological father, and he could not miss out on this wedding. Currently, Jerome was taking pictures on his phone. On the other side, Linux had given Hilda to Nathan. Even though the two had gotten married a long time ago, Linux still felt reluctant at this moment. While the wedding song was being played, Nathan held Hilda's hands gently and looked at her with a profound gaze. Beaming with a clear brilliance, Hilda also looked up and smiled softly at him. A peculiar yet contented look reflected in her bright eyes. They were just looking at each other, but he could already feel the pleasantness and happiness in her eyes. A surge of warmth reached his eyes and forced their way out as tears. He was just like most grooms who were seeing their beautiful brides for the first time. The rush of emotions caused them to tear up and made
Connie managed to get everyone's attention with just three sentences. They might not have been Connie's son in law, but they could all feel the terror and could not help but look at Nathan with empathy. Feeling tremendous pressure, Nathan watched as Connie came over to hug Hilda and glare at him at the same time. He simply smiled along and even started clapping pretentiously to keep the atmosphere alive. At least they were done with the formalities now. Connie had gotten off the stage after the brief speech. Hilda grasped Nathan's hand and murmured, "She's just scaring you. She would never let you die!" Upon hearing that, Nathan only gave an insincere laugh. When Connie was done talking, Nathan looked at Damian like a lost and helpless child hoping that his father could also say a few things to save him. Damian, however, did not have a lot of experience. All the formalities were over, and it was now time for the awaited bouquet toss. Hilda caught the bouquet two days ago, and
Hilda and Nathan were standing together with a little Luna between them. On either side of them were their parents, Damian, Connie, and Jerome, and also the other family members, Linux, Lily, Johnathan, and Dean. Standing away from everyone else, Anthony was like an invisible person watching them take a family photo Hilda was breathtakingly beautiful standing in the center. Sadly, her beauty was not for him. It was the afternoon, but he felt cold on the inside as if he should not have shown up. Suddenly, Lily shouted, "Wait! Anthony isn't here yet. We can only say 'cheese' once he's here!" Damian looked over at Anthony and beckoned him. "Jayden! Come and take a photo!" Anthony's existence was a pain in the head for him, but Anthony was also a victim. Hilda pressed, "Hurry! You're the only one missing!" I'm the only one missing.. Those simple words warmed his heart. He quickly walked over, stood next to Lily, and smiled. They took the photo as one happy family. The deep affe
Every day, he had nightmares of Luna giving birth to a baby as a teenager, and that the baby looked exactly like Klaus. In order to fulfill his own dying wishes, he started to monitor Klaus's every move in secret to find an opportunity to get the bracelet back. Otherwise, he would feel unsettled even when he was frozen. It was too dangerous for Klaus to have that bracelet in his possession. Every time he saw the bracelet, it would possibly remind him of Luna. Without the bracelet, he would forget about Luna in just a few days. Even though everyone felt like Klaus was a great figure, to Nathan, he was just a deadbeat who sold insurance. Klaus had also come to Taadi City to establish a branch of Durrett Enterprise here. Like the Jordan's, they wanted to have a share of the market in Taadi City. In this big nation with over a billion people, they could make tons even if they sold insurance casually. Alas, Nathan found out that Klaus got a membership at Bilinsk and was working out th
Today was certainly not going well for him! After a while, Anthony rushed over in a hurry. Luckily for him, he made it in time for the last piece of chicken. A moment later, Rex and Thomas appeared with their daughter in tow. They had brought food as well, and all of them gathered around together to have a share. "Papa! Daddy!" Akosua walked between her two fathers, happy as one can be. Dean unzipped his bag, then began to shake its contents onto the mat. Several books dropped out, followed by a stream of snacks, jellies, and a little gift box decorated with pink garlands. Lily was pleasantly surprised. "Dean, where'd you get all these?" Dean's signature scowl remained on his face. "Someone from the high school next door gave it to me." They could tell at once that it was from a girl. Hilda picked up a box of jelly, then ripped it open and ate it. It was obvious that it was the handiwork of a girl. She said merrily, "It's no doubt that someone likes our Dean is the school jo
Klaus had arrived at the court and was already active. His agile body darted left and right, and he could even shoot perfect three pointers. He was only fifteen years old, but he was already a little taller than Dean. At an estimated height of nearly 1.8 meters, he was almost capable of performing a slam dunk. Hilda watched him play as she nibbled on one of the chocolates. If she was a few years younger, and if she hadn't met Nathan, she would have pursued Klaus. He's so cute with those long eyelashes, long legs, and that beautiful face... She had the sudden desire to place him under her household register. Nathan noticed that Klaus had taken off his bracelet as soon as he got on the court and that he had passed it to a bodyguard, who was standing to one side. Nathan's eyes lit up. He cast Dean a meaningful glance, and the two of them went up to the court. They couldn't publicly grab it, and they couldn't steal it either. Their only choice was to stay near him, then wait for a
The second half of the game began. Nathan had gone mad and focused on Klaus alone. With no consideration for his teammates' assistance, they constantly lost possession of the ball. In the end, they lost to their opponent by several points. When they summed up their experience, everyone blamed Nathan for being blinded by hatred. He didn't care for teamwork, and he completely ignored the strategies they had decided to use, choosing to focus on Klaus instead. When the match was over, it was already time for dinner. Hilda suggested, "Let's go to Nobel House! It's Uncle Nathan's treat!" Nathan had lost a battle today, he didn't manage to get the bracelet back and had caused his team to lose instead, so he was more than willing to pay for this meal. That was until Hilda enthusiastically beckoned Klaus over. "Klaus, let's go eat together! The world's best CEO is buying!" Klaus's expression was cool as he responded, "That's fine. I still have other plans..." Before he could finish, Son
