Recently, the studio did not have many orders and those they had were made by their acquaintances. They were Hilda's colleagues, the Michel Family, the Cannon's, Rex and Kater and the like. Truth was, their customer base that was built over the years were gone. Right away, Hilda stopped the business operations and decided to complete the orders at hand before anything else. As for the remaining stock in the store that was not sold, Hilda would bring it home for her pets. She also had two dozen toys sent over for Kater as compensation for the sin of castrating it. Now, the store was about to be renovated. The designer had come over to discuss the details with Sonnia as Hilda listened while holding her two puppies. Suddenly, the phone rang, it was still the new phone with an unfamiliar number. There were not many unknown callers for this phone. As soon as the call was connected, Billy's voice came over the line. "Hello, Miss Lucile. My name is Billy Winterford. May I know if you
In the afternoon, Linux came to the store to pick Hilda up after work. "How was work today, Hilda?" Realizing Linux had arrived, Hilda shut down her computer. "Linux, you're here! It was alright. I'm still getting myself familiar with the operations in the past years." Meanwhile, Kater who was still under anesthetics was carried away by Linux, while Hilda followed behind with the two puppies and they left the store together. They got into Linux' car that was parked downstairs and went home. When they were back in the neighborhood, Hilda unconsciously glanced at Nathan's Villa. Although the lights were on, it does not seem like Nathan had returned. If he had, he would have called her. On second thought, why should he do that? Back home, Linux' Villa was warmly lit. Connie had been home for a while and as soon as Hilda walked in, she saw her cuddling Luna as they watched TV. They were watching the hit variety show 'Where Are We Going, Dad?' Luna loved this show and her bigges
Due to the time limit, the game was only valid for an hour. When time was up, everyone rushed into the instance zones and started doing quests. Hilda enjoyed playing the game. In the virtual world, she could be a virtual boss or a virtual warrior. It was simply amazing! Her old self must have chosen to develop games because she loved it! They had chosen the monster with the highest difficulty and the oncoming monsters were particularly fierce. Suddenly, a giant monster rushed straight at Hilda and unleashed strange attacks. However, Hilda did not defend herself, which resulted in the monster clawing her. Hence, she was poisoned and lost half of her life. Once she was poisoned, her character's actions were slowed down. The monster was right before the character, but Hilda's speed was still extremely slow. At once, Hilda was intimidated. Right at the critical moment, a bright golden light flashed and she could hear the sound of a sword being drawn out. The golden armor clad warrio
In the match, Nathan was battling against someone named Michy. The fight was intense and fierce, which attracted many players to the scene. The two fought mercilessly for thirty minutes before it was over. A scream was heard and a player had died. The system prompted 'Nathan was killed'. Upon seeing that, everyone could not believe their eyes. Nathan had died... Nathan, the godly and undefeated character, had actually died? Where did Michy come from? Not long after, people were talking about this battle all over the world. 'Oh my God! Nathan actually got killed!' 'Since Nathan died, his account was probably replaced by someone else! No wonder...' 'But from what I saw, he was still powerful. The skills were fantastic, yet he still died.' 'Who is this Michy? She can't be just a nobody!' Meanwhile, the gaming group chat was quiet, it was as if everyone was so shocked that they forgot how to type and continue with the game. In the game, all of the red team members were stil
After staring at the avatar for some time, she decided not to add him. On the other hand, Rex was still cursing in the group. Hilda was still staring at the group chat in a daze when Connie sent her a message. 'Go to sleep, Darling. We'll continue the game tomorrow.' At that moment, Hilda was speechless. It was just a game, after all... Was it necessary to be so merciless? Hilda didn't head to the store the next day because the construction team would be starting the construction process. However, the rest of Pourl's branches were not affected so that morning, she continued to read her previous notes and work diary in the study. After lunch, Hilda laid on the sofa and watched television lazily. Just then, Luna brought a new DVD from her house. It was a classic collection of a high definition version of the Game they played last night and she played it in the home theater in the living room. Then, she lay on the sofa as she petted the dog with her left hand and ate fruits with
There were very few people in the inpatient department of the hospital and the scenery was beautiful, with plenty of flowers and plants. At that moment, Hilda's face was still swollen and her face was covered in gauze. "My darling, how are you feeling? Does it hurt?" Connie asked, feeling concerned. Only Hilda's eyes, mouth and nostrils could be seen and she was very careful as she whispered, "It's like ants biting my skin, it doesn't hurt." Hearing this, Connie leaned close and said, "Come here. Let me blow on your wounds, you'll feel better. Hilda couldn't help but laugh. Connie is treating me like a baby. However, in Connie's eyes, Hilda was indeed just a baby and her only precious child. After sitting for a while, Connie received a call and left, leaving Sherry and two bodyguards to guard Hilda. All of a sudden, there was a commotion in the inpatient department and it seemed as if there were people quarreling. In order to treat Hilda today, many doctors canceled their origi
Thinking about this, Sahara felt a strong surge of courage and she even dared to be arrogant in front of Connie. "Hey Connie, if you want the elders of the Damien family to admit that you're part of the family, sign these contracts. Right now, my father is still in control of the elders of the family. As long as you sign, I'll ask my father to agree to write your names in the record book! And your daughter would be accepted as a Damien." Even though the Damien family was separated, the ancestral hall couldn't be cut into half so the elders of the family still had power and were under Salem's control. The other two families would also need to listen to Salem. A wealthy family like the Damien family cared a lot about being in the record book. After all, if their names were not in the book, they couldn't be buried in the ancestral grave, which meant that they weren't part of the Damien family! When Sahara saw that Connie was still looking at the contracts, she triumphantly glanced at
Connie was living with Linux and Linux treated her with respect, so her identity was really clear. The poor Damien family actually thought that the family head of the dignified Jordan family, the woman who controlled the coal mines in Africa, Connie Jordan, was a coal miner! I can't believe that they sent a child to threaten Connie. Now that the Damien family has fallen, I'm sure Connie feels upset too. Connie glared at Alban and said nothing. At the same time, Hilda tilted her head and glanced behind Alban before she asked, "Uncle Alban, why didn't you bring Corrado along?" Hearing this, Alban's heart sank as he thought, I'm not as welcomed as the dog. Then, he snapped his fingers and Corrado rushed out with a swoosh. Hilda was really happy and wanted to pet Corrado, but she had just had an operation and it was a little inconvenient for her to move around. However, she was still really happy that Corrado came to see her. Meanwhile, Connie had already silently got up and walked
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
