Before Nathan left last night, he put Caleb on security mode. If anyone tried to break in, Caleb would launch an attack on them right away. If it was someone he knew, he would come out to greet them. When Nathan came home last night, however, Caleb did not come out to greet him. Moreover, he was still nowhere in sight today. "Caleb?" Nathan called. When there was no response, he went and found Caleb in a corner. Caleb had been powered off and was standing there silently. Nathan turned his power back on, but there was no response. He tried charging him but it was to no avail. He's broken again! Why does he keep breaking down? When Hilda learned that Caleb had broken down, she quickly grabbed some tools and began repairing him. Her efforts were in vain, as Caleb did not power back on. Fortunately, Linux was still around. She quickly pushed Caleb along with her to look for him. Linux took a careful look at Caleb. Because he did not have his equipment with him, he could only tear
Sonnia started to bring the details of her story to life. "Apparently, after we left, my stepmother secretly ran off with her lover. My dad got really furious and went to look for her. I heard that he found her last night, but she's refusing to come back!" Hilda felt like the story was not very convincing. For a gold digger like Jessica who was able to marry a man twenty years older than her, how could she run away before even getting her hands on the company shares and the money? She blurted, "Who is that man?" Shaking her head, Sonnia ate some food then said, "My dad is about to lose his mind. They didn't reveal too much so I don't know either. They only told me that Jessica ran away and is refusing to come back. She's no longer part of our family now. To make up to my dad, the Jones Family wants to send Victoria over as his new wife.' After listening to this story, Hilda lost her appetite completely. She couldn't help but feel like there were a lot of loopholes in this story
Bruce told Hilda about everything that had happened.After Sahara's career took off, she was put in the Damien Family's registry and became the young lady in place of Tehilla. Her life changed in an instant.But a lot of people knew about her hidden identity. She was not Salem's biological daughter who was kidnapped twenty years ago, but his illegitimate daughter. Sahara's mother and Salem came to an agreement to hand her over to the Damien's.Sahara's biological mother received millions in exchange for cutting off all ties with her while the Damien Family found a new young lady in their family. Everything was supposed to be perfect.It all went wrong when Bruce's uncle, June, was sent to the police station after being beaten up by Lily and forced to undergo rehabilitation for a period before he was released again. However, he started to idle around after that. When he heard about his successful niece, he thought of ways to get money from her.To him, Sahara was like an ATM. He visite
Rex did not know what to say now. The Nobel House was the most luxurious and well known food and beverage outlet in Taadi City. He often heard of people spending up to a million in one sitting there, and seats were especially hard to book. He had only eaten there once for Kater and Sunset's birthday. He did not think that his own birthday was worthy enough either. Hilda assumed that the people being invited out for dinner were just the few founding members of the company, so she gathered them together after work. To her surprise, Alban asked, "Oh? Just the four of you? Get the others to come along as well!" She blinked at him, unsure of who he meant by the others. He quickly said, "The whole company, of course. I love chatting with younger people." Hilda froze. There are over two hundred people at the company. The restaurant might not even have enough seats to accommodate everyone. I heard the food is also very expensive there. With two hundred hungry people, he's going to go broke
That meal was a burden to everyone. Rex couldn't help but feel like Alban had an ulterior motive. First, he comes to our company and invests in us, then he even treats us to an expensive meal. There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world! As expected, when everyone was close to finishing their food, Alban revealed his true intentions. "Hilda, it's going to be New Year's soon and I'm getting ready to go on a trip. I usually live alone so there isn't anyone to look after Corrado while I'm away. I was wondering if you could help me look after him for a while." Once he said that, everyone showed mixed reactions. Sonnia's eyes lit up. Another dog to play with! Thomas frowned. He's hiding something! Rex's eyebrows shot up. That was it! Who knew Alban would use this tactic? But Alban was such a big businessman, where wouldn't he be allowed to have a dog? Was there even a lack of people to look after his dog? Did he invest millions and treat everyone to a meal just to trick H
Nathan could not help but feel bothered by it. He wanted more than anything to fly home this instant and grab hold of Alban. But, Hilda was still eagerly watching the live broadcast, he could not leave just yet. In the meantime, he could only suppress his jealousy. Just you wait, you b*stard! Suppressing his anger, he made a phone call and said, "Go home right now." It was very noisy on the other end of the phone, there was a disorderly and chaotic clamor. It was evident that this person had a very enriching nightlife. "There are a lot of young, handsome men at home." Nathan added, then ended the call. Shortly after, his face appeared in the surveillance footage at home. Alban was shocked to see Nathan come home, but soon realized when he did not see an Adam's apple that it was Lily. She was dressed in shabby clothes. Her hair had grown out and was styled in layers on her forehead, making her look rather youthful. Hearing that there were many young, handsome men at home, sh
The awards ceremony had begun. They were now announcing the award categories along with the winners in succession. Hilda's nervous hands subconsciously pulled on Kater's fur as the results were being revealed. As expected, Nathan's project won an award which immediately became a trending topic. When Hilda saw the announcement, she immediately looked down at her phone to send out a tweet. Fortunately, she had already made a draft of her tweet and only had to make a few adjustments before sending it out. She wanted to deliver the good news as early as possible. Shortly after, they announced the Best CEO for this year's Awards, and Nathan, without falling short of expectations, won the award for the second time! He was the second Best CEO winner from Taadi and also the only Taadi business man to win the title for the second time. No, he might even be the first in all! Feeling overjoyed, Hilda started to send out tweets with her fur covered and trembling hands. Nathan reached the
Public opinion is really interesting. It's so easy for everyone's attention to sidetrack. After getting home, Nathan said to Hilda "Didn't you have something prepared for me as a surprise?" His words threw her fury back in her face. After hearing that, she quickly got up and said secretively, "Just wait here." Meanwhile, Nathan waited in anticipation of that surprise from Hilda. The more erotic, the better! Hopefully, it's some role play costumes that we can use for an entire night of sex! She turned on the computer, entered their game, and logged in using his username. Before him loomed an entire set of customized equipment that no one had seen before. "This is your personalized equipment goodie bag that I made for you!" The smile of excitement on Nathan's face froze. He looked at Hilda and asked, "Is there anything else?" Hilda responded joyfully "Of course! Give me a minute!" She left and came back in just a few seconds with the fat Fly in her arms. "Fly is pregnant. The k
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
