In the hall, Carmen was drinking with Diana and a few girls from the nobility. Just now, they saw Hilda following the girl to the hotel room.If everything went well, the show on the other side should have begun, and the girl should be guarding the door now, waiting for them to come and watch the show.At the same time, in one of the hotel rooms, Daniel, who was wearing a surly expression, placed a contract before Nathan.Nathan immediately enthusiastically reached out to pick out the document.However, before he managed to do so, Daniel suddenly slammed his hand on the document. When Daniel saw the greed on 'Jathan's' face, he let out a vicious snigger. "This is a contract between you and the Stephenson Entertainment. If you sign this, you will become an artist working under the Stephenson Entertainment. The Stephenson Entertainment has one of the best resources in the industry, so it's just a matter of time before we make you the second Nathan Clemon. You got the looks and everythin
"What? Nathan Clemon's coming? And also a few internationally renowned businessmen? And there are 5 or 6 Forbes Richest Men attending?"Therefore, most of the workers and business partners from both families secretly left."The Clemon's, Fleming, Michel's, Cannon's and Trixian's are all going? And also a few prince's from foreign countries?"With that, most of Carmen's best friends left.Even Diana couldn't resist the urge and sneaked out.The most important thing now is to build a strong connection with the other families!Regardless of the industry finance, fashion, or entertainment, the event next door was obviously more high class than the anniversary banquet over here. In a short time, more than half of the guests had left the initially lively and merry banquet, and the few people who remained seated at the few tables were considering leaving as well.Mr. Adams and Mr. Stephenson looked at each other blankly. Finally, the latter said, "Dear in laws, it looks like we've chosen a w
There were plenty of distinguished guests, whom he didn't manage to invite here at this charity banquet.After they entered the charity banquet, as they expected, the place was incredibly lively, and most of the Stephenson Family's guests were here.This was the place that truly portrayed the disparities and ranks of the upper society class.Samuel, who was decently dressed, stood among the crowd while speaking to someone from the elite society with a glass in his hand. His daring golden hair was shining brightly. As the star of the day, all the guests were here for him, and he was undoubtedly the most dazzling person in the hall.With Samuel in the center, he was surrounded by the nobilities, such as the members of the Great Families, politicians, foreign royal families, and many more. This was the top grade social circle.The second grade social circle was formed by the bunch of guests that came from the Stephenson Family's banquet.In their eyes, the top grade social circle was an
The two people walked on the red carpet. They hurried into the hall without pausing.Countless cameras and mics were shoved toward them but were stopped at both sides by the security guards and bodyguards.He was like a wind that brushed past the reporters. He didn't bother to answer any of their questions as he didn't hear a word.His appearance itself was the best answer to them. Nathan and Kyle walked up to Samuel and patted his shoulder, and the group of powerful and famous people around the latter surrounded them and warmly greeted them.What did it take to be an idol? Only now did everyone know that an idol would be someone like Nathan Clemon!He, who had 'offended the officials' was currently carefreely chatting with a bunch of important politicians, and the arrogant princesses became his fangirls in front of him, queuing up for a chance to take a photo together with him. He was surrounded by the most well known directors in the world. As a majestic looking man, he became the c
Along the way, there were plenty of people who kept handing her their name cards in an attempt to get to know her."Young lady, are you interested to shoot for an advertisement?""We are short of a female lead actress for our drama""Miss, can I get to know you?"A lot of people wanted to know Hilda, but all of them backed off as she didn't pay heed to any of them.Hilda sat on a couch at the corner. Attentively, she reached for a glass of wine from a waiter who was walking by.Rex, who was again awestruck by Hilda, approached her and grinned. "Hilda, you look gorgeous today!"Hilda took a sip of wine. She dared not drink much because this gown showed her figure more visibly than the 'Moonlight', so even drinking a little more might affect her figure.However, she was really thirsty after she had gone through a tough time that felt like half a day together with Nathan's styling team. She was dressed up flamboyantly before being sent in here for Nathan to admire. It was like a battle.
"After she had found out about your marriage to Daniel, she had gotten together with an old man. She is now married to him but it is a secret only she and a few people close to the old man knows about."This is really a piece of shocking news!Hearing that, Carmen was overjoyed. No wonder she was nowhere to be found after she left the Adams mansion. It turns out that she went to look for someone to take care of her. This explains why she has the money to acquire the Cross Group and the Project, and why she's so arrogant! It turns out that she's married to an old man! This is really karma!Daniel fell into a deep silence after listening.Carmen, on the other hand, laughed 'innocently'An extremely wicked idea suddenly popped into her mind. She then held Daniel's arm. "It turns out that my sister is married." Hilda was married to an ugly old man!Halfway through the banquet, Hilda stopped eating after having two bites because she intended to have dinner together with her husband when th
Mr. Adams strongly believed that his son in law was a big deal. This girl must be planning to get all his assets alone!What an ungrateful daughter! If it weren't for me, could she have gotten such a nice husband? His assets are what I deserve!Angry, his face darkened. "Hilda Adams, you are my daughter. As your father, can't I see my son in law? Do you still have any respect for me?"Hilda smiled. The corner of her lips were slightly curved as she replied sharply, "Let me ask you, you don't even know who my husband is? Do you still see me as your daughter?"Mr. Adams small eyes actually widened as he glared at her. "I-Is this how you speak to your father?"Hilda walked closer to him as she raised her voice. "Back then, when you decided to send me to a man's bed for money, you made it clear that we were not to contact each other for the rest of our lives and that I am not even your biological daughter! Are you regretting your decision, hmm? Mr. Adams?"Her clear voice had reached ever
Seeing that Rex still refused to tell the truth, Mr. Adams played the pity card. "Mr. Rex, I only have two daughters in my entire life. My youngest daughter, Carmen, is always by my side. My eldest daughter, Hilda, is also very important to me. I just want to know if my son in law has been treating her well, that's all."Rex still refused to tell him the truth. If he really did know, he would have already spoken the truth a long while ago. But then, he replied arduously, "Mr. Adams, I am someone who goes by the rules strictly. I will never say something which isn't mine to say."Mr. Adams replied earnestly, "Come on! Are those rules more important than family? Isn't it just a rules? Compared to my daughter's happiness, I'm willing to break any rule. I'm just worried that she'd be bullied by her in laws. The reason for meeting him today is just to tell him that I'm still alive, in case he mistreats my daughter in the future, thinking that she's all alone by herself."However, Rex still
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
