Just a few days ago, Hilda thought that she was about to have the best father in the whole world, but reality dealt her with a heavy blow. In just a few days time, her dreams and hopes were completely crushed. Her father has given her up to the Hex something that would not be changed.Perhaps, he really doesn't care about her. Or maybe, he knows that he has a daughter but he doesn't care and is not willing to meet me at all. Her high expectations had turned to endless disappointment and loss, and she felt as if she was a child that was abandoned by everyone. Reality had ruthlessly tore her heart apart. Hilda rested her head on her knees and looked down at the photo of Adrian and Connie. Her tears rolled down her cheeks one by one and they quickly gathered into a small stream of tears. When she heard the noise behind her, she turned around and saw Nathan standing not far from her. She looked up and in a hoarse voice like a pitiful puppy, she muttered, "Hubby."As she spoke, two streams
Although her face was oily, Hilda put on a refreshing smile on her face. "I'm afraid I won't be able to attend your piano concert because I have to take part in a world class event tomorrow."Tehilla sized her up skeptically from head to toe before letting out a snort because she was unconvinced that Hilda could be someone who had anything to do with a world class event. "It's enough as long as Nathan will be there."When Tehilla walked past her, she caught a sniff of the stench made up of instant noodles and cigarette smoke.Frowning in disgust, she got into a car which was waiting for her at the front of the residential area and left.Hilda could still smell Tehilla's rose scented perfume and it lingered in the air long after she was gone.Along her way back, she realized she smelled very bad, which was inevitable.As she started scratching her disheveled hair, dandruff started falling off from her scalp.When she reached home, Nuella was keeping away the cups on the coffee table in
The couple, who were usually inseparable, didn't talk to each other at all during the journey.In the end, Nathan was the one who broke the silence by buttering Hilda up, "I think I should just skip Tehilla's concert and head straight to the stadium to watch you.Hilda turned her face away from him and spoke like an elegant but aloof wealthy lady who owned billions worth of assets. "It's fine. You may go ahead to watch her concert because I can handle the event on my own."Suppressing the urge to laugh, Nathan asked her, "Pumpkin, are you angry with me?""Nope," Hilda replied.Yet, it was so obvious from her cross tone that her blood was boiling.The aura she was exuding was too terrifying.The atmosphere inside the car was extremely disharmonious.Soon, their car reached the concert hall where Tehilla's piano concert was held.It went without saying that Tehilla would choose the most sophisticated and distinguished concert hall in Taadi City because those who were invited to her conc
When Hilda emerged on the stage, all the fans took out banners and signs on which 'Miss Misty' was written to show their support.The host remarked, "I'm really surprised to learn that the The Miss Misty belle is actually here with us!"Looking slightly embarrassed, Hilda looked up at the big screen which was her promo video and pictures.Perhaps it was because the awaited super big shot, had not arrived, the host was trying hard to buy time by passing the microphone to Hilda.This was Hilda's first time speaking at such a grand event and its scale was considerably larger than those belle contest she took part in before.Having drawn in a deep breath, she flashed the audience her most beautiful smile.At this, the audience cheered loudly.Then, the host seemed to have received a cue from the backstage staff as he soon ended the interview with Hilda and let her settle down in her seat to prepare for the event."Ladies and gentlemen, including those who are watching the livestream now,
After the piano concert ended, Tehilla went to take a rest backstage where she fished out her phone to make a call to Nathan.At the national stadium, a phone in Gasper's hand rang with an unknown caller on the screen.After he picked up, he heard a sweet and pleasant voice say, "Nathan, where are you now? My piano concert has just ended. How about we have dinner together tonight?"Gasper answered her icily, "Mr. Nathan will be having dinner with Mrs. Clemon at home tonight and he has no time for you. Get lost."Click.He hung up on her.Tehilla stared blankly at her phone. She couldn't believe what she just heard. Did he just ask her to get lost?!Who was that?She was surprised to learn that Nathan's bodyguard had actually spoken to her like that. No, it couldn't be the case. Nathan must have lost his phone and a random nobody must have found it. He even had the guts to speak so rudely to her.She couldn't believe there existed someone in the world who dared to speak to her that wa
Finally, she lost it and nonchalantly instructed her people, "Smash it."Although the bodyguards were slightly hesitant when they heard her, they dared not defy the order of the princess in the Damien Family. Therefore, all of them made a dash forward and started smashing the ticket counter to compel the staff into giving them the tickets.The staff immediately shouted, "Help! Someone is causing trouble!"Soon, a troop of mercenary soldiers came and encircled the bunch of people. Tehilla, who became even more fearless and confident at the sight of the soldiers, said in a commandeering tone to them, "Ask your commander to come here. I will only talk to him."As her uncle was an officer in the army, she was unruffled.In her opinion, such a cheapskate event must be organized by some shady company which must have outsourced the security of the stadium to a small security company.Soon, the head of the troop strode out of the stadium. He was a young man who gave off a confident and righte
Soon, the event was about to come to an end when the host announced. "Today, a new award would be given out to one of our distinguished guests. For being one of many to rise to the top even through time of crises. The new Miss Misty belle is now holding an ambassadorial deal with us."Hilda leapt to her feet in excitement as she waved at the audience to thank them for the support. Rex was so thrilled that he jumped from the spot he stood and swept Hilda off her feet."Hilda, you won! You won! You are an Ambassador!"Hilda felt exhilarated for the win too.Amidst the excitement, Rex suddenly felt a chill down his spine as though he was targeted, by a predator. Trembling in fear, he immediately let Hilda down.As soon as Rex loosened his hold on her, Hilda turned round to throw her arms around Nathan excitedly. She nearly went on to give him a smooch just like how they usually did at home but fortunately, her mind was pulled back to reality by the thunderous clapping and rapturous cheer
As Tehilla walked away, she tried to figure out William's identity. There was no lack of influential and powerful people in Taadi City, and it was hard to determine who was the richest as another richer man would always appear. As for the public figures here, Tehilla knew quite a few of them. Although that man earlier seemed like a General, he didn't look particularly old.However, it wasn't a common occurrence for her to bump into people from the military, so there were many whom she didn't know. Despite that, she knew that the youngest General in Taadi City was William from the Cannon family but there was no way someone like him would be here for this low class event.Once, she almost went on a blind date with someone from the Cannon, but he was never enlisted in the army and didn't have a decent character. Furthermore, he was even late, so she gave up and since then, she didn't have the chance to meet the youngest general in Taadi.The remarkable William Cannon was also once in her
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
