"Wooh, that was fierce!" Christopher said as he watched Nathan walk out of the private room.Samuel got up and shouted at the closed door. "Hey, you asked us here but you leaving without saying anything just like that?"The response he got was just silence. He sighed and got up. "I'm leaving." He then walked towards the door."Is that how to leave?" Kyle stared at his back as he frowned before following suit. If Samuel hadn't called him, he wouldn't have even come out as he had a lot to do.When Christopher saw them leaving one after the other, he cursed. "So much for asking if that was how to leave yet you are all doing same. Who is going to pay for the drinks?""It's on Nathan." Samuel said before walking out with Kyle.Christopher sat back on his chair as he thought. 'Gloria is far more prettier than Hilda and she is also of the same social status as Nathan. So why would he go in for a girl from a middle class family? No, I Can't let this happen to Gloria.'With that thought in min
Nathan drove steadily on the street as they headed off to a hotel to have dinner. Hilda behaved unusually sweet to him. During dinner, she asked him about work and how is day was on a usual. She picked up his food for him and even massaged is back for him diligently even though Nathan told her there was no need to.When they both sat down to eat, Nathan filled her plate with some food and said. "Have these, they are really tasty."She was happy as she chewed on her food. As she was eating, she thought about something and raised her head to look at him before asking. "How about we catch a movie after this?""Okay." Nathan agreed readily.His response came as a pleasant surprise to Hilda. She was thrilled. But before she could swallow the next bite on her food, Nathan said. "We are watching a horror movie this time around.""N- N- No!" She objected desperately with her eyes wide open filled with horror. She had seen a horror movie before and there was no way she would want to watch anot
"Wait. Just let me get off here at the roadside." Hilda said. She didn't intend to see Gloria or intend to stop Nathan from going. Nathan looked at her and sensed the change in her mood but he didn't know what she was unhappy about. "Pumpkin, if those tailing Gloria get their hands on her, it would be very bad." He explained patiently.But Hilda didn't reply to him. She just asked him to go alone. "I know. But it would be bad for me to tag along. Don't you think so? What if I slow you down?" She tried to explain.Hearing what she said made sense, Nathan brought the car to a stop as he watch her get a cab. "Be careful out there. I would be back soon." He said before driving off to the location he received.When he arrived at the location, he noticed that a car was going after Gloria's car at top speed, but her body guards were trying their best to loose it. He stepped on the gas pedal as he speed towards the direction of the unknown car.He rammed his car into the back of the car foll
"Move! Move! Move!" The voice of the nurses could be heard as they pushed two stretchers each with a person on in the hospital corridor with great speed into the operating room.On one of the stretcher was a man and the other was a woman. The woman had her eyes closed with an oxygen mask on without any external injury visible where as the man was badly injured with his head wounded and bleeding with blood dripping out. His shirt had dyed a blood red color with blood as he had wounds all over his body."Quick get the doctor here. He has lost a lot of blood hurry!" One of the nurses yelled inside the ICU as they were trying their best to save the man who was on the verge of death.Meanwhile Samuel who had just gotten home heard his phone ringing when he was just about to eat the takeaway package he bought from outside. 'Who the hell would call me at this time.' He cursed under his breathe before reaching out for his phone. But upon seeing the caller Id he stood up hurriedly with a serio
Samuel walked out of the operating room with heavy feet and moist eyes. He wanted to stay strong but he knew with how Nathan was and how much blood he had lost, it would only be a miracle which could save him."That d*mned woman!" He said through gritted teeth. To him, it was all Hilda's fault as Nathan had passed by the club earlier because of her. No woman had been able to get Nathan to drink that much alcohol like Hilda.He walked into the corridor and was greeted with the sight of the Clemon family members rushing into the corridor. Mrs. Leah Clemons was held by her husband as she was crying. "I hope Nathan is fine. My dear baby..." She noticed Samuel immediately she finish speaking and rushed to hold onto him. "Samuel, Nathan would be fine right?" She held onto Samuel's hand while shaking it. "Tell me something Sammy! My baby would be alright right?" She asked again in between sobs.She was home after spending the entire day at the hospital with the Patriarch only to receive a
'How dare she call me after what she had done.' Samuel thought with an enraged expression on. He gritted his teeth and asked indifferently in a cold tone. "How did you get my number?""Nathan gave it to me. He asked me to call you whenever I couldn't reach out to him when it is urgent." Hilda spoke from the other end of the line."So what now? Are you calling to find out if he is dead and not? I swear, if anything happens to Nathan, I would never let you off believe me on this." Samuel threatened.Hilda was stomped by the sudden aggressive and threatening tone of Samuel and most importantly his words. "Wha.. wh.. what do you mean by if something happens to Nathan?" She stuttered.To Samuel, she was pretending to know nothing. His voice got more colder as he threatened yet again. "I would never let you off if anything happens to Nate. Pray he survives or else, you would know why no one dares to cross me." He hanged up immediately afterwards not giving Hilda any chance to say anything.
Stanley soon arrived at the hospital. He hurriedly walked into the corridor where he was greeted with the sight of every one sitting motionless or standing with their gazes on the operating room door.He hurriedly greeted Mr. and Mrs. Clemon. "Sir, Ma'am."Mrs. Clemon looked at him and turned away, where as Mr. Clemon nodded his head at him. He then walked to Samuel who was back and was sitting on the ground with Christopher and Kyle standing beside him. "Mr. Fleming, Mr. Michel, Mr. Anderson." He greeted all three of them but none of them turned to look at him or spare him a single glance.He then noticed that the atmosphere was a little chilly as everyone had a serious expression on. He then began to think about his boss. He had no idea how serious the incident was. All he knew was his boss was met with an accident earlier when he went to save Miss Gloria. I hope Mr. Clemon is alright. I hope it is nothing serious. He silently prayed.He had wanted to inquire about the situation fr
Stanley walked up to Samuel as he was the owner of the place and told him about the plan he had told Hilda earlier.When Samuel heard what Stanley had said, his face turned cold and with an icy voice he replied. "No way! There is no way I am allowing her to see Nathan."Stanley was stunned at Samuel's reaction. "B.. Bu... but, she is Mr. Clemon's wife." He stuttered as he tried to explain to Samuel as he had no idea why Samuel would hate Hilda."Wife? Hah. There is no way I would let her see him and that's final." Samuel replied and tried walking away but Stanley held onto him."Mr. Fleming, you know Mr. Clemon cherishes Hilda and he wouldn't be happy with this arrangement of yours." Stanley tried to reason with Samuel."He wouldn't be happy? He is how he is now because of her. I won't allow her to see him. And if I see her here, you wouldn't be glad about the outcome." Samuel said coldly before storming out.Stanley became confused at his reaction. 'What did Samuel mean by Mr. Clemon
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
