As the evening came to an end, Nathan carried Luna up to the attic, where they could see the night sky through the sky window. Luna leaned beside Nathan and gazed upon the stars above. "Daddy, I wonder which star is mommy today." Nathan raised his hand and pointed at the brightest one among them and said, "That one. Look, she's winking back at you!" Luna fixed her eyes on that star and chuckled before a tinge of sadness took over. She asked, "Daddy, why did mommy turn into a star?" Nathan looked at the star and answered with a smile, "That's because mommy's an angel! She'll have to become an angel and travel to the skies soon. At night, she transforms into a star to watch over us to see if you misbehave. She will be back in a few years' time." He gently curled Luna's hair with his fingers and spoke apprehensively in a low voice. "Is there anything you want to tell mommy today? She's listening right now. She's an angel, and she'll fulfill your wishes." Luna made her wish carefull
Hilda hastily grabbed a stack of red packets as she saw the little girl approaching her doorstep to knock on the door. She opened the door and found the little girl standing right in front of her. She was immaculately dressed, and the purse hanging in front of her belly was bursting with red packets. "Happy New Year! May you be blessed with prosperity!" Greeted the little girl in her sweetest voice as she shamelessly reached out to Hilda with open palms. Hilda placed a red packet into her hands and replied, "Happy New Year to you too." The little girl got what she was after and was about to leave. Hilda subconsciously wanted to stall her but struggled to conjure any excuse at such short notice. She was also aware of the man whose cold, wary gaze had never left her since they arrived. Linux suddenly appeared at the door and offered a friendly welcome. "Aren't you Gasper? My, my, it's been a minute!" At the sight of Linux, the man's solemn façade melted into a genuine smile. "Mr. J
As they reached its home, Hilda left the husky there and headed back to her own. Kater had every intention of luring her into its house to babysit for him. Alas, Hilda saw through its ruse and turned back immediately. It loitered at the doorstep, uncertain whether to go in or to go to work. If it went to work at the pet shop, its rump would be sore from being caressed and pinched by guests there. If it went to the company to stand guard, it knew it was no match against the two fierce German Shepherds that just arrived. Every time it tried to put up a fight, it would end up getting beaten badly, so it figured it might as well skip work. If Kater returned to Rex's place, it would be all alone as Rex was always at work, and no one would play with it. It did not even think about going back to the Cannon Residence, for there would be an entire pack of military dogs, both still in service and retired, waiting for it at the lawn. Once again, winning a fight with them would be out of the qu
Luna spent the evening having dinner at Hilda's place. When she was done, she took Kater, which was wearing its skirt, by the harness and headed home. Kater was beyond recognition, for it was covered in tattoos, and its claws were painted bright red. It could no longer tell if it was a dog or a doll. "Miss, my daddy is coming home soon. So I need to go back now. I'll come play with you again tomorrow. You'll need a full course of bear dance to recover, okay?" Hilda packed the desserts she just learned to make, including the jelly and pudding, for Luna to be brought home. She even packed extra for her two 'daddies'. She gave the packed desserts to the nannies. Apparently, Luna had five to six nannies, and all of them were highly educated! Hilda stood at the entrance as she gazed at Luna, who was heading home. She also noticed a car parked in front of their Villa. Both her 'daddies' were back. One of them carried her lovingly and lifted her high up in the air. Such a wonderful, ha
The next day, Sonnia went to Linux' Villa again and brought a tablet to show the dogs and cats at the pet store to Hilda. "Look, look, these puppies are like Kater, who is a purebred Husky. They are very clever, but also expensive. I keep them in my store so that someone would adopt them. I'm sure Kater's father would want someone suitable to adopt these dogs. If you like them, we can head over to my store later and I'll give them to you. Rex said that you don't have to pay for it." Hilda glimpsed at the photos and videos on the tablet, the dogs looked like they were full of life as they ran around. In actual fact, they are Kater's puppies. Connie had finished dressing up and arranged her work schedule beforehand since she promised that she would bring her daughter to have fun today. She brought the tablet to her and gestured excitedly at the puppies on the screen while waiting in anticipation for her response. Although she was not a fan of noisy dogs, she knew that it only matte
"Nobel House is an internationally popular restaurant chain. I know the boss well and he has arranged a seat for us."Upon hearing that there was delicious food to eat, Hilda was excited. She left the dogs at the pet shop before making her way to Nobel House.Nobel House came with high ceilings that made the restaurant appear vast and grandiose, even the dishes looked extremely expensive to be eaten. Sonnia seemed unfazed by it and generously ordered more than ten dishes to be shared by the three of them.As soon as the menu was handed out to them, she excitedly announced before leaving, "Hang on for a minute. Let me bring a friend over."She returned a while later, this time with a black Labrador in tow. "This dog belongs to the boss, Alban Jones."Hilda stared at the big, black dog, wondering whether its name was Corrado.True enough, its collar revealed the truth, it really was Corrado.Corrado immediately took a liking to Hilda, as if she was an old friend whom he had not seen in
She never intended to speak a single word to Victoria and was now cold hearted. My last name is now Michel, so anything to do with the Akuffo Family does not bother me whatsoever! "Sorry, you're not welcome here. Why don't you return to wherever you came from?" Sonnia did not allow Victoria the privilege for a face to face conversation. She merely waved her hand and gave permission to her subordinate to chase her stepmother away. If it had not been for her longing to the Akuffo Family, she would have left the family a long time, she was now Mr. Michel's wife! However, it was not as easy as Sonnia thought to chase Victoria away. Now that she came, there would be something for her to gain. Although she knew that Sonnia would not be easily defeated, she decided to think of other methods to provoke her. Victoria leaned forward and intentionally mouthed the words at Sonnia's ears. "Where is your husband now? I'm sure he must be missing me..." There was a condescending tone in her voi
Mr. Akuffo screamed the moment he entered, "You are such a scumbag! You had the nerve to whack your mother into such a state! Get down on your knees now! I won't let this matter slide easily today!" Sonnia had actually beaten Victoria into a pulp that time, causing her to be in such a state, and it was something that could be resolved with a property! An infuriated Sonnia rushed up like a gust of wind and lectured her biological father. "To hell if I will kneel down! Isaac, you are here in the nick of time. I'm telling you this here and now, I'm cutting ties with you! We will go our separate ways after this!" There were a bunch of relatives from the Akuffo Family behind Isaac. After learning that he appeared at Sonnia's door to find fault with her after she whacked her stepmother, everyone quickly came to watch and look at the house as well, the same one that would soon belong to the Akuffo Family. The father and daughter crossed swords with each other the moment they met, she da
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
