Hilda stared at him in puzzlement. Why did he come to me? Is he going to say something to me? What is he going to say? The lives of the upper class society are so messed up, so I need to protect myself.She broke the silence. "Hello Young Master Cannon!"William hummed in response and asked. "Is your gown still intact?" His voice was unbelievingly gentle, which was totally different from the serious expression he had on earlier.Carmen stared at the scene in disbelief.How dare a wild chick like Hilda talk to William?Daniel who was also looking at the scene felt disgruntled. He dashed towards them and reached out to William, pretending that he was close to him. "William!"Before William could say anything, Rex was pissed off at Daniel as he walked up to him angrily. "Hey! Watch it! How dare you call him by his first name?"Rex pushed Daniel away and stood next to Williams. He then smiled. "Hello friend!"William didn't even cast him a look as his eyes were focused on Hilda. He found
Meanwhile, Carmen's heart sank when she witnessed that. It turned out that William wasn't there for her or the Stephenson family. But I bet he wouldn't have decided to leave after he had seen me. He must be taking in my breath taking good looks. But that b*tch! Hilda is truly a b*tch! How dare she seduce Williams. She has a death wish!Besides, who on earth is Rex anyways? Who does he think he is to shove Daniel away from Williams? This is our wedding banquet. Everyone should pay attention to us, and that includes Williams!She then walked to Williams side deliberately saying. "Williams, the banquet is yet to start, but if it is too noisy at the moment, you can go rest upstairs and I will let someone come get you when it starts."However, Williams acted as if he didn't hear her at all, instead, he spoke gently to Hilda. "Keep moving Hil."Hilda had Rex and Williams flanking her, where as Sonnia followed from behind. After that, the three escorted her out.Staring at the disappointed C
Amidst the hushed discussion in the crowd, the elevator doors opened. Mr. Stephenson was standing in the elevator respectfully with a slight bow while two men in suits and leather shoes stood beside him. Both men wore identical black suits, but they were radiating completely different vibes.One of them stood valiant while looking handsome. A pair of gold rimmed glasses settled on his straight nose, making him look especially gentle with the faint smile playing across his lips. In fact, he was emanating a type of exceptional charm. On the other side, the other man looked arrogant with his eye catching looks. His cold gaze made him look aggressive.As soon as they showed up, the entire banquet hall seemed to sparkle with their fame silencing the room for several minutes. After moments of dead silence, someone screamed at the top of their lungs. "That's Mr. Clemon!""Samuel Fleming is here too!""Oh my god! The Stephenson's banquet is such a huge deal! I can't believe they managed to i
The news of Daniel purchasing the Eternal Love ring for Carmen as a surprise gift had merely been a rumor circulating among the elites. The small social circle was currently in a frenzy upon learning this piece of update."Gia, didn't you mention that the Stephenson family was the one that bought the Eternal Love? How did it end up on Hilda's finger?""Oh, I heard it from Ria. Ria! You gave me a full account of how the Stephenson's had purchased the Eternal Love! You have to prove that now!""I have no idea. I heard someone had bought the Eternal Love, so I assumed that it was the Stephenson's. I deliberately asked Carmen about it and she did not deny it either.""It seems like she has flattered herself. Well, I suppose we were excited for no apparent reason!"Everybody had started a heated discussion about this issue where as Carmen, who was now the topic of discussion started to tremble slightly. She felt exposed as if the crowd had ripped her clothes apart to openly stare at her an
Today, the Stephenson family's banquet had received lots of attention due to the presence of the three idols. However, the crowd could only observe from afar, despite the three idols present among them.The banquet would officially begin at 8PM, which was to allow everyone to have free time and chat with each other. Several people sat on a large couch in the hall at the moment.Hilda was seated in the middle, shinning radiantly like a beautiful moon. Her breathtaking facial features were illuminated by the moonlight, no doubt making her the most dazzling woman among the female guests. However, her whole body was tensed at the moment. She sat with her back straightened and her hands were on her knees while she maintained a dignified and demure expression.Currently, Nathan and Samuel were seated on her right, in fact, Nathan even wanted her to sit on his laps. On the other hand, William and Rex were seated on her left side of the couch followed by Sonnia.The six of them shared a couch
The banquet started with the well trained servers zig zagging through the VIPs to serve cocktails. Mrs. Adams came with three classes of cocktails and placed it on top of the coffee table in front of the couch, bracing herself while trying to search for a common topic to chat with the idols. "The entire Adams family is knowledgeable about wine. We have stored more than 100 bottles of red wine in our wine cellar. The cocktails today are prepared with the red wine from the Adams' own collection. Talking about the Adam's family's wine...""I want this!" Rex suddenly jumped up and took the glass of cocktail before running away, completely ignoring the fact that Mrs. Adams was in the middle of introduction.Her expression instantly soured. Mrs. Adams had only brought three glasses of cocktails, so it was obvious whom she brought it over for. Therefore, it was clear that she was not prepared to spare even a glass for her 'daughter or anyone else.Rex took a huge gulp after snatching a glass
Mrs. Adams returned in a disastrous defeat. As the host's tonight the Adams and Stephenson's had lurked around for the longest time possible since they yearned to approach the group of big shots. However, the group radiated a sort of aura that indicated they weren't in a welcoming mood, so the two families knew nothing good would come out if they forced their way forward.Needless to say, William was more like royalty. He was also the youngest billionaire in the world with the Cannon's family fortunes being under him. Where as Nathan and Samuel weren't ordinary either. They form a great percentage in the system of Taadi. They more or less have everything in Taadi under their control. Apart from that, they both had an exceptional status in the financial world as well.The Stephenson's wouldn't have been able to invite people of their stature to their family's wedding banquet under normal circumstances. Now that the big shots took the initiative to show up, the family's were determine t
Daniel broke the silence humbly. "It is our family's honor that you are able to attend our wedding banquet. Here, I will like to propose a toast to everyone."Although the three idols did not show up at the events for both families, they were forced to respond anyway since the host had toasted them.Daniel and Carmen naturally took the opportunity to sit down beside them and worked hard by chatting with the big shots. "Nathan, I ought to be great like you are one day. I have a lot to learn from you."Nathan responded with a warm smile, as expected from an idol. "Of course sure."Carmen wanted to take the chance to shake hands with the idols. Unfortunately, just when she was about to reach out, William broke the silence and disrupted the atmosphere that was gradually relaxing. "Nathan, I heard you got married?"Suddenly, the atmosphere became tense again. Her hand hung awkwardly mid air, staying there motionlessly for about five seconds. Then she hastily withdrew her hand while mainta
