The two young girls snapped back to reality after the couple left. Luna let out a sob and she started to cry softly. Initially, Adwoa was ready to punch him, but she held back as she thought, I can't possibly hit that face! At that moment, she had no choice, but to soothe Luna, "Alright now, stop crying. I will be honest with you, that b*stard has shown his true colors and you should give up on him! He has been lying to you all along. He claims that he's keeping the relationship a secret for your sake, but he's been cheating on you in reality. That scumbag is not worth your tears!" Luna did not reply to Adwoa, instead, she tightly held onto the dog leash. Then, the two of them entered the elevator with the dog to leave the club. Although it was the start of spring, it was still chilly in Taadi City. The two of them were waiting for the bus at the roadside, but it was nowhere to be seen even though it was already around 8 to 9:00PM. Luna was quiet, but Adwoa was especially chatty
To begin with, I want to experience a normal life like my peers, next, I want to embark on a journey of fearless love. In any case... I'm not even sure if I've experienced love. Do I love Justin or do I love that face embedded in my childhood memories from years ago? In hindsight, if a dog were to have the same face, I might throw myself forward to pursue it too! I think I love that face which closely resembles my father. I wish to spend time together with the person with that face, even if it's just for a chat, I'd be beyond happy. Upon recalling his face, Luna could not help but tear up again. I recall that when I was a child, no matter what nonsense I wanted, how naive I was, or the illogical thoughts I had, Mom and Dad would always support me. I even scheduled some horrible stage plays for them to watch. Each time, Dad would watch it solemnly before providing some constructive criticism to me. Whenever he needs to attend the Parent Association conferences, he would always w
Luna glanced at Anne. In all honesty, I have no ill intentions toward her. In fact, I feel like I've wronged her. Therefore, she sincerely apologized, "I need to apologize to you, Miss Anne. I am sorry that I've been dating your fiancé for the past five months. I was the one who pursued your fiancé, so I would like to apologize to you. However, your fiancé did not inform me that he was already dating you. He informed me that he is single and that he doesn't love you. He claimed he is merely acting around you. In fact, he vowed that he is only in love with me. He says that the reason why he has never publicly announced our relationship is because he's the school hunk and he doesn't want to put any pressure on me." Luna clearly enunciated every word with a rhythmic flow. She spoke fast, but everybody heard her loud and clear. It took a few seconds before everyone snapped back to their senses. Justin was the first to stand up. He explained himself to Anne and the Browns in a panic, "
The head of security wore a frosty expression, but it turned into one of constipation when he turned to glance at the two young girls in school uniforms. These two kiddos are on the go again! Luna suddenly pointed at Justin and Anne while exclaiming loudly, "Mr. Security Guard, I want to report these two people. They are underage! Underage personnel aren't allowed in a nightclub!" Her finger was aimed in Anne and Justin's direction. Bilinsk was a well known nightclub, so according to the rules, underage personnel were not allowed on their premises, but since Mr. Brown was a member, the management of the nightclub turned a blind eye as Justin and Anne were both invited by him. How could we not serve him despite the fact that he is a few months away from being 18 years old? "Enough with the nonsense. Kick them out. Otherwise, they'll be disturbing an important figure!" Justin urged the security guard in exasperation. He was afraid that Luna would spew more truth to the crowd. How
Greg was thunderous as he yelled, "You're going to let them off the hook like that?" The security guard stepped aside and watched Luna and Adwoa leave before turning his attention to Greg with a raised brow. "What would you have me do instead, sir? Kill them?" With that, he turned to leave and did not bother to stay for whatever retort that Greg would have. An outraged Greg threatened loudly, "I'm going to file a complaint against all of you!" "Have a nice day." The guard replied nonchalantly before he exited, leaving Greg high and dry at the entrance. "You..." Greg wanted to rush after the guard to confront him, but he refrained from doing so when he remembered that there were more important matters at hand. With that in mind, he turned to address the mogul, who was still sitting in the private booth. After all, it was the mogul who deserved every bit of Greg's attention. He was about to sit down so that he could resume his conversation with the mogul when much to his surpris
The reason why Greg brought him to Bilinsk in the first place was because the mogul had taken an interest in his thesis and wanted to meet him in person. Justin had been ecstatic because most people would kill for an opportunity like that, but Luna showed up and ruined everything for him. His fists were clenched as he marched over to her. Upon seeing this, she instinctively backed away with what appeared to be panic in her eyes and asked, "Are you going to hit me? I'm warning you, my mom's a farmer and my dad used to be a construction worker. Strength runs in our family's blood. I won't hesitate to kick your *ss if you take one more step toward me!" However, Justin was like a beast filled with rage and he paid no heed to her words. Anne, on the other hand, was watching the show from the sidelines as she stood with the men who worked for Brown Group. This little wench has some nerve, she thought. If everything had gone as planned today, Justin would have piqued the mogul's int
A pair of green eyes stared in her direction from within the shadows. The green was so captivatingly familiar that it drew her gaze toward the car and distracted her from the fight. The pair of green eyes also looked at her and in that moment, Justin's cries of pain as well as Adwoa's string of profanities melted into the background. The longer the owner of the green eyes and Luna stared at each other, the more she felt as though time and space no longer existed. There was an unspoken conversation that seemed to hang in the air between them, as if their souls tried to convey every single thought and emotion to one another. She recognized those piercing green eyes as well as that car, the vehicle was the brainchild of the first ever collaboration between Jordan Group and Smith Group. Jordan Group's extensive experience in arms manufacturing and advanced technology combined with Smith Group's prowess in aesthetics culminated in the final design for the car. The model was essentia
The reason why she wanted to head abroad in the first place was because she could not stand being watched by her family 24/7. She finally found respite after staying abroad for a few years, but when she came home a year ago, it was as if her old life picked up right from where she'd left it off. It was a never ending story, one that constantly imported the heavy use of spy drones and pinhole cameras. When it came to spying methods, the creative brains behind Jordan Technology did not have an imagination that was as limited as Luna's. The high tech 360° panoramic spy cam was custom made for her. It seemed as if her entire family would not be content until they knew her every move. She highly suspected that any waste matter she expelled into her toilet bowl would be subject to their scrutiny as well, she would not be surprised if they decided to run lab tests on it. Luna eyed her mom with a solemn look again and she announced defiantly, "Mom, I'm a grown up. I use tampons now and
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
