"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
Mr. Adam was so shocked that his fat body trembled, while Carmen and Daniel were also taken aback as they didn't expect that there were snipers here. Daniel quickly said, "Calm down. No one is making a scene here. We were just trying to help them reconcile with their family!"Hilda held onto Nathan as she snorted coldly. "It's a charity banquet, not an occasion for your family matters."Seeing Hilda speaking back to him fluently, Mr. Adams retaliated. "Hilda, I'm your father! Is this the way you speak to me?"However, Hilda did not look at him and spoke to Kyle, who was next to her. "Mr. Michel, please chase them out. If they continue to make a scene here, just shoot them."Rex also continued to instigate the incident without knowing what was actually going on. "Shoot them! Shoot them! Shoot them all!"Facing the guns, Mr. Adams immediately resigned and smiled awkwardly. "It's just a misunderstanding! It's just a misunderstanding. Hahahahaha! I am just too happy seeing my daughter tod
After Hilda entered the room, the corridor became a battlefield for the men.Nathan cracked his knuckles and walked to Rex. The smile on his face grew wider as he got closer. "Heard that you wanted to shoot me"Rex was so scared that he quickly shook his hands with a fearful look on his face while smiling awkwardly."Hahahahaha! Nathan, how would I dare to do so?"Meanwhile, he took a few steps backward quietly.Even if I drank the potion of courage, I wouldn't dare to shoot Nathan ever!Goodness, Hilda actually married Nathan Clemon!Damn it!Nathan slowly walked to him. "Thought you wanted to shoot me, an old man, just now. Go on, now!"Rex was about to burst into tears. "Nathan, please forgive me! I won't dare to say anything like that! Not anymore!"If I had known that Hilda was Nathan Clemon's wife, I wouldn't have dared to have any thoughts for her at all being with my brother!I guess Nathan won't let me off today."Rex, l have reminded you since a long time ago.""Oh, Nathan!
The hands on the clock struck 12.00AM, but Nathan was still not here. Lying on the bed, Hilda felt quite disappointed.At the moment, three big shots gathered in Nathan's study. The atmosphere was quite serious. It was all because of a picture that was sent to Nathan's anonymous email. The picture was taken during the banquet that night, and it perfectly encapsulated Hilda's most beautiful moment. Wearing 'Greenery', she looked like an angel that had descended from the heavens, looking extremely ethereal. Her exquisite facial features were out of the world.Two words were typed on the corner of the picture. 'My Precious'These words again! The origin of the picture was clear without a doubt. It's from the Hex! He just won't go away!This man was too sly. He had been hiding himself quite well over the past few days.They could not trace him at all, but judging from the current situation, he seemed to have attended the banquet this evening.The email was sent from an anonymous account t
In the Cannon's family mansion at the break of dawn, Rex bought a bottle of beer from the mini market and hid it in the garden to drink with his dog."Here you go, Kater. Drink up!"He poured the bottle of beer into his glass and a bowl. While he took a sip, his dog also licked in the bowl.After taking a sip of the beer, Rex had a troubled look on his face."Kater, why didn't she become our wife?""Woh! woh!" After the dog got drank, it tried to bite him.The more Rex thought about it, the more resentful he felt.He thought that his brother was the only person best for Hilda. They were roughly the perfect couple when he imagined them together. No matter what perspective, both of them were the perfect match for each other.Rex even had a perfect plan planned out for his brother. After he confirms his relationship with Hilda, they would be engaged as soon as possible. They would soon get married and Hilda would start bearing him niece's and nephews. That was all he wanted. Kids to turn
Hilda stared at Nathan's photo, where he was about 18 years old. He looked extremely handsome in the picture. In fact, he seemed completely different from now.The 18 year old Nathan looked like a carefree youth, like a piece of blank paper. His smile was warm and charming.He doesn't look too different from my imagination. He was wearing a white shirt, and he had a hairstyle that was trendy during that era. Nathan didn't have the unwavering steadiness he has now, but he looked youthful and almost ignorant of reality and society.If he was about 18 years old at the time, this picture must have been taken 15 years ago. What was I doing 15 years ago? I was just a 6 year old child!At that time, I must have been wearing an old shirt. It must have been ugly and ill fitting.Nathan would have been 18 years old at the time, and he must have been getting ready to join the military service. We never would have imagined that we would end up under the same roof after 15 years.Rex started regre
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
