Nathan insisted in front of the president, "I want you to rate my wife's performance with the maximum score possible. If she doesn't achieve first place, I refuse to donate the billion."The president responded, "No problem, I will make sure that your wife receives the maximum marks available!"Nathan turned towards Samuel, stating, "This applies to you too. Give my wife the maximum marks available.""Okay, fine!" Samuel mumbled, rolling his eyes while playing with his cellphone.The Miss Misty contest consisted of three events with each one bearing a maximum score of ten marks. The final score would be a combination of the total score from the panel of ten judges and the online votes.That was the reason why Nathan thought deeply on how to secretly help Hilda to gain more votes.In order to be on the safe side, he commanded the president and Samuel, "Rate everyone else zero marks other than my wife.'That meant if the trio gave the other participants zero marks, it wouldn't come clos
Upon seeing the situation, she was absolutely determined to defeat Tehilla in the Miss Misty belle contest!After Tehilla shook Nathan's hands, she maintained a cool attitude of a model and later greeted Samuel before calmly speaking, "Mr. Clemon, I heard that you are very skilled in playing the piano. Would you please join me to perform a piano duet?" That was the reason why she joined the competition.Tehilla was a hundred percent sure that Nathan would not refuse her invitation, given her background and irresistible looks, there was no way in the world that he would say no to her.Despite her expectations, he slightly frowned and apologized, "I am very sorry. It's been several years since l have touched a piano. I may have lost my touch with it.""It's alright. I was only hoping that I would have been able to share the same stage with Mr. Clemon, that's all," She responded with a slightly contented look in his eyes.With that said, if Nathan was not an idiot, he would have understo
According to tradition, contestants for the Miss Misty Pageant needed to have a male companion while they walked the runway.Diana's male companion wore a matching traditional outfit like hers, making them look good together.Carmen's runway partner would definitely be Daniel and they were the definition of a golden couple.Hilda's runway partner was supposed to have been Rex, who had already changed into his outfit, but it seemed like she would no longer be able to strode the runway together with him.Everyone gloated at her for her misery and only Shekinah, one of the participants, seemed to be concerned for her as she walked over. "What are you going to do? Would you like me to lend you some clothes?"Shekinah's outfit for the show was valiant as her runway partner was her brother, a national basketball player, and they were catching people's attention.Hilda was in deep thought and replied, "Shekinah, I have already thought of a way to resolve this, but could you please do me a fav
When all the contestants went offstage, they all felt really good about themselves."The idol looked at me earlier. Oh my, I saw him smile at me, so it means that I did really well!""I saw him draw a circle when he was writing down my score. The idol must have given me a full 10 points!"When Tehilla heard about this, she scoffed. What a bunch of idiots! How could Nathan grade them a full 10 points when they don't even know what kind of quality they are?She was confident about her own performance as she had most likely even outdone herself. This year's Miss Misty would still be mine and the idol would naturally only belong to me as well! With my flawless face, unsurpassed achievements and a respected background, there is no man in this world that I can't have!While Samuel stood next to her, he looked over to Nathan, who was sitting at the panel of judges and was tediously drawing circles all over the scoresheets. Then, he glanced at her as she felt confident about herself.He sighe
Her astonishing performance left the other contestants speechless as their glamorous gown were not nearly as good as her school uniform. Even the efforts of choosing and selecting the best male companion to walk the runway seemed like nothing when compared to Hilda striding the runway with a cute yet arrogant little boy!As Carmen stared at Hilda and her runway partner walking away while holding hands, a malevolent look flashed through her face as a cruel plan rose in her mind, glancing at Tehilla.Before it was Hilda's turn to come onstage, Tehilla was the best performer. She had the best dress, the most beautiful face and the most handsome partner. It was almost a hundred percent certainty that she would be in first place.However, no one had expected Hilda to show up. It was impossible for her to win if one were to consider her outfit and partner, but she had somehow found herself a way. She seemed ambitious!But the title belonged to Tehilla!When Carmen saw that Hilda and her run
At the moment, the contestants who were backstage anxiously checked their ranking via the app.According to the app, Hilda and Tehilla's rankings had been shifting between the first and second place, competing only with one another the whole time. Besides, their votes were much higher than the other contestants.When Carmen looked at the votes, her hand, which had been grabbing her phone, turned pale. Although her eyes were drooping, they were infuriated and she suddenly let out a laugh. Hilda, why don't you continue to pretend? You're vexing Tehilla! No matter how powerful your husband is, there's no way that he will be more influential than the Damien's!Currently Hilda was still in her uniform. She had asked Shekinah to find her the uniform or else she would have to walk the show in her daily casual outfit.Hilda was very distressed as she glanced at her clothes, which had been destroyed.The one who tore her dress was wicked, seeing that there was no way for her to repair the dres
Upon hearing the title, Tehilla sneered at the backstage. It seems like she has overestimated herself!As she faced the audience, Hilda started her speech. "How did you live your life when you were eight?"The app had a live comment function for the broadcast and it was shown on the big screen at the scene. When she threw out a question, the live comment section went excited.'I was attending hobby classes when I was eight.''I was in third grade when I was eight.''I won in the International Junior Math and I could recite the Three Hundred Tang Poems.'Hilda let out a chuckle when she saw the reaction from the big screen. With a casual tone, she continued, "So, we have some people who won international competitions at the age of eight, some have billions of fortunes under their name at the age of eight and some could recite poems at the age of eight. However, when I was eight, I was still collecting trash in my home."In response, the crowd was in chaos.Those who could afford to hav
Compared to Tehilla's 'I'm already nineteen and I'm running out of time', it seemed like everyone preferred 'I'm only twenty one years old, so what if I was late?'After all, not everyone would have had the same reputation like Tehilla when they were nineteen!The live comment section exploded.'I'm twenty and l have decided to start dancing!''This lady is inspiring! She has just reignited my dream to work harder!''I'm 21 and I have decided not to waste my life anymore. I'm going to start studying medicine!''I'm already in my third year but I hate my current major. From now onward. I've decided to enroll in my second major!'"Oh my God! This app was actually designed by her who has only been into programming for a few months? This is so amazing. I support you!"On the app, Hilda's votes spiked like a rocket. In a blink of an eye, Tehilla was pushed down from her number one spot, but her fan base was very powerful. The moment they noticed that something went wrong, they immediately
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
