Wasn't this a battle between Hilda and Briana? Why did Nathan become the one who's exchanging words with Briana instead?Briana tried as hard as she could to evoke Nathan memories of the past, but all he wanted was to unobtrusively heap praise on his pretty young wife.In his own words, she was adorable every time she smiled and in one of her mood swings, and even when she yawned, he loved her so much that even her fart smelled pleasant to him..Only then did everyone realize that Hilda was the true master. Since Nathan was the reason behind her catfight with Briana, she simply decided to let Nathan come forward and confront Briana!If Nathan sided with Briana from the beginning, she would stand no chance to continue the catfight anyway. In that case, she had better save some energy and find a divorce attorney to claim a larger share of his wealth.Just as one couldn't stop leaves from falling off trees, a man who wanted to leave his spouse could never be made to stay.If Nathan sided
Now, everyone knew that his wife's naked body had been seen by other people. Moreover, she would be performing in an R rated film. The released cast posters of the film showed her being almost nude.He took a mouthful of wine in bitterness as his wife's promiscuity made him restless and uneasy. When he put down his wine glass and looked up, he saw Hilda standing dazzlingly among the crowd like a goddess.The high tech home renovation inside Linux' house was nothing short of amazing. What particularly evoked words of amazement were the glass windows that could be remotely connected to the entire world, and the 3D holographic projection that looked so lifelike to the point of making one's skin crawl. Gasps of admiration could be heard among the crowd every time the fairies flew out of their palace.At this moment, another special effect flashed across the screen. The face of the devastatingly beautiful fairy that flashed across the screen looked strikingly similar to Hilda.She and Carm
A trace of disgust flickered in the depths of Daniel's eyes as he looked at Diana's flirtatious expression. As expected, women are all b*tches!Thinking that they weren't discovered, the two then hatched up what they thought was a flawless scheme. However, they forgot that they were now on Linux' turf.Linux chatted with the guests while listening to the conversation in the restroom via his Bluetooth earpiece.The corners of his lips curved up into a charming smile which, coupled with his blonde hair and blue eyes that constituted his handsome looks and made him look as warm as the scorching sun, often drawing sideways glances from the female guests.It could be said that the unmarried socialites of Taadi City were scrambling for him, for he was surrounded by many female guests just a short while after he showed up.However, Linux looked at Hilda from time to time. Looking beautiful and self confident, she stood among the crowd like a fairy.Seeming to have sensed Linux' gaze, she tur
Pleasantly surprised, the ladies immediately dragged Anthony over and surrounded him."Mr. Clark, didn't you say that you couldn't attend the banquet because you were ill and bedridden?""Mr. Clark, let's take a picture together!"Being handsome was indeed a privilege, for everyone caught Anthony and took selfies with him right after he showed up. After they finished taking pictures together, everyone surrounded him and spoke enthusiastically to him."I didn't want to come at first, but Linux invited me after all. Moreover, l will go overseas in a few days, so I must come to have a look at everybody."Anthony's voice was especially attractive and pleasant to the ear, so everyone couldn't help feeling regret for his departure upon hearing his reply."When will you come back, Mr. Clark? Where can we find you in the future?"Anthony took a sip of the red liquid in his wine glass before answering, "I don't know that as well. I think I may volunteer to work in rural areas after traveling a
Hilda glared at Nathan, who was panic stricken since he was at a loss for what to do. Luckily, he had experienced situations that were more intimidating than this one.After calming down, he hit on an idea in desperation and shot Kyle a glance.Kyle raised his brow in confusion....Nathan shot him another glance before shifting his gaze to the cell phone that he had placed on the glass coffee table in front of him.Kyle narrowed his eyes and nodded. Then, he quietly took back his cell phone and dialed Nathan's phone number.Two seconds later, Nathan's cell phone rang. Seizing the opportunity, he stood up with a broad smile. "I'm going to answer a phone call. Have fun playing the game, everyone."After that, he picked up his cell phone and fled.A trace of resentment flashed across the depths of Briana's eyes as she watched Nathan disappearing from her sight.The game couldn't be played anymore!Rex, who had proposed playing the game, was at a loss for how to wind things up. Just then,
The slap was loud and clear. Luckily, nobody noticed it since everyone was clapping.The little hand was totally furious, for the fine hair on its back seemed to stand on end. It kept running away to prevent the large hand from getting close to it. However, not only was the large hand determined to get close to it, it also wanted to embrace it and cling to it.After a few struggles, the reddened large hand finally caught the reluctant and sulky little hand. It clasped the little hand with all its might to prevent it from running away.Hilda finally quieted down as well.Refusing to let Nathan go, she grabbed his hand as hard as she could.Briana was still looking everywhere, as if searching for the colleague in the song and dance troupe who had written a song for her ten years ago. Everyone also frequently glanced at Nathan as they guessed that he was likely the colleague Briana was referring to.Regrettably, Nathan didn't move at all, and he even whispered in Hilda's ear from time to
There was a dance after the banquet. The key part of local Taadi banquets was the food, but the dance was the focus of Western banquets. Since this day's banquet was a fusion of local and Western styles, both the food and the dance were the main parts of the banquet.Being sulky the whole time, Hilda refused to speak to Nathan during dinner, but she still ate the food he placed on her plate. They ate just a little for dinner since there would be a dance afterward.There was a larger ballroom next door that was prepared specially for the banquet. The dance floor there was magnificently decorated. The stage decor there was more splendid than that of this room, and the stereo system there was nice too."Let's go and dance together." Nathan tugged at Hilda as she was reapplying her lipstick.Hilda was still angry right now. She said coldly, "I'm not going. Go and dance yourself if you want to."Nathan watched her reapplying her lipstick with a straight face. "In that case, I'll dance with
The dance party began, and Nathan held Hilda's hand and led her onto the dance floor. A slow and soothing music happened to be playing, and the ladies and gentlemen on the dance floor slowed down their movements.Hilda was upset the whole time while she was dancing with Nathan. Without saying a word, she rested her chin on Nathan's shoulder while slowly taking her steps along with the music.Nathan seemed to know the reason for her silence, for he placed his hand on her back and gently patted her twice. "I just went to say hello to her."Winnifred looked very much like Leah, so he really couldn't ignore her when she stood in front of him.Of course, Hilda wasn't angry just because Nathan had spoken to Winnifred. She was just feeling inferior, for she knew that she was inferior to Winnifred. Some heights were destined to be insurmountable no matter how hard one tried. So many people worked hard to earn money, yet there would always be only one person who was the richest in the world.H
