After eating, Rex left the dog with Nathan and spent some time instructing him how to take care of Kater, and, especially, not to let it eat feces!When he saw Hilda go into the bathroom to wash her hands, he hurriedly walked up to Nathan and whispered, "Commander, I think something is wrong with Hilda recently."Nathan seemed to know what he was talking about and responded in a low voice. "Hmm?"Rex was embarrassed. "I can't tell what's wrong, but she has talked less recently, and something feels wrong with her. I tried to get her to rest but she wouldn't... Oh, just pay attention to her! Maybe it's because she is under a lot of pressure. Since you will be at home for a while, you can take her out for a walk!"Nathan did not reply to him. Then, he and Thomas left together, and Kyle also took his kitten home with him.In the middle of the night, Nathan was eating fried chicken as a snack in the living room. He was going to resume work soon.Whenever he ate something, Snowball and Kate
Now, Hilda was looking at him with teary eyes exactly like that time from before.She had a miserable life after been betrayed by her sister and boyfriend, but now, she was a dominating lady boss. However, she was still the same person.She was heartless and cruel, and she had blood on her hands, but Nathan knew that she would often wake up in the middle of the night in shock. He didn't know what she saw in her dreams, but she always looked fearful.She used to fear her future of getting married to a stranger who she would call her husband.Now, she was afraid of herself. She was afraid that she would become a cold blooded monster and that one day, even her family wouldn't recognize who she was.She feared that she would become the kind of person she once hated, the type that would do whatever it took to achieve their goals.She found that ruthlessly retaliating against those who had once hurt her couldn't satisfy her anymore!She was afraid that one day, she would lose herself to the
Taadi was a country with a long history and had many aristocratic families.Although there had been wars in recent years and many aristocratic families had disappeared as a result, there were still some tenacious families that had survived and were very powerful.For example, the Clemons, the Cannon's, the Michel, the Fleming, the Trixian, the Damien and the Jones.The Cannon's were a military family and were all loyal to the country. They had produced many great heroes and generals but bore a grudge with Hex, so obviously, the Cannon's weren't the ones who used Hex.The Damien's were once enrolled in politics and also had a hand in the oil industry before they switched to high tech electronics. They had influence in both the business and political world, and although Hex had also killed a few of their members before, it was still possible that the Damien's had used Hex. It was impossible before, but there was a high chance that Salem would have done so.As for the Michel's, they had
As soon as she entered the door, the old liar said, "You have a high forehead and bright light in your eyes. You are either a reincarnated immortal or a descended immortal. Come here quickly and let me have a look."Hilda was left speechless and thought, this liar is really unprofessional. He doesn't even bother to make up his own lines and just steal lines from movies! Looking at how excited Nathan was, Hilda took a seat for his sake and stretched out her hand for the old fraudster to have a look. The old fraudster grabbed her hand, looked at her palm and even touched her face to feel her facial bones. He pressed his rough fingers against her cheek and studied the veins, all while shaking his head."You have a good fate. Look at your palm, the more complex the lines on the palms, the better one's fate is! Your palm lines are complex, extremely complex!""Your facial features and the structure of your face indicate good fortune. Everything is good!""With your fate, you will either b
"..Well, I don't know about that." Nathan answered.That question was really too deep, and he couldn't answer it.Hilda started muttering to herself, "So if a star who has undergone malarplasty, rhinoplasty, and had some work done on his forehead went to have his fortune read, would it still be accurate? I personally don't think so.""Technology is pretty advanced these days, so it's easy to change your looks and body structure. All those ways to tell your future through reading your palms or bone structure are all lies! Lies, I say!"Hilda continued to mutter for a while before finally falling asleep.Nathan laid her head on his chest and occasionally stroked her hair gently, the sadness and guilt in his eyes gradually piling up. Feeling her gentle breaths on his chest, he gave her a deep kiss. He then looked at her face and studied her brows and lips, not willing to miss any details.Let me take care of everything for you in this life!On the next day, Hilda wanted to leave after t
There were only two monks in the temple, which was in bad shape. Even the statue of the Buddha was old and dirty.Nathan burnt some incense for Buddha, praying sincerely. Hilda was carrying a bag of money, and she donated some after saying a short prayer. Even after she finished donating all of her money, she wanted to donate more, which could be done by scanning a QR code.It was quite advanced despite the fact that they were in the middle of nowhere.However, after scanning the QR code, she couldn't donate any money because she couldn't connect to the internet with the poor signal in the mountain."Hm, I don't have any more cash and there is no signal. I guess that's it." Hilda said."Miss, the Wi-Fi password is on the wall." The monk said quickly.Hilda was rendered speechless. After connecting to the Wi-Fi, Hilda found that the signal there was extremely strong. She hurriedly scanned all the QR codes to donate some money so that this trip wouldn't be a waste.After everyone had d
Nathan remained for a little while longer as he had promised the monk to use the donation to repair the roads leading to the mountain. After the new year, Nathan would arrange for a bridge to the mountain to be built, trying to improve the condition of the temple, however little his efforts would be.After they arrived at the base of Dragon Mountain, Nathan then dragged Hilda to the other mountains to pray at the temple as well as donate clothes and stationeries to children in the poor, mountainous areas.Throughout their journey, they were on the lookout for schools that did not have enough money and did good deeds to earn merits. After all, Hilda lacked everything but money and a husband.After making the round, she felt much happier and her guilt had been diminished by a lot. Hence, she returned to Taadi City in happiness. However, Nathan was unhappy as Lily landed herself into trouble, so he had to quickly replace her. At the current moment, the partner's wife was throwing tantrum
After waiting for what seemed like an eternity, Mr. Akuffo's face darkened when the guards still refused to allow him in. His group of family members behind him started to give snide remarks.One of the women in heavy makeup led the conversation. "Oh dear, why aren't they opening the gates? Is it because Sonnia is doing something unspeakable?"The group of women started to gossip among themselves. "How shameless! She has even locked her own father outside the gates!""What's wrong with Sonnia? How can she be associated with those from the underworld?""She's a good child, but the older she becomes, the more useless she is. She's a disgrace to the Akuffo Family!""The underworld is merely a bunch of gangsters who collect protection fees, especially when anyone can call themselves a member.""I heard that she suddenly took a few million from the family a while ago, supposedly to start her own business.""Hmmph, I wonder what business she's doing!""I bet she's using the money to fool ar
