The wind was strong by the river. Though spring had come, the area had a higher altitude, and the temperature could decrease dramatically when the wind howled. However, Hilda did not want to leave as she desired to watch the river lanterns. Nathan took off his jacket and laid it on her body as he gently cooed, "It's cold here, so let's get back earlier. We can come again some other day." It was not a smart approach given that he was courting her, he should have accompanied her until midnight. However, he could not bear to see her sitting in the wind and was worried that she would catch a cold. Out of his expectation, her bodyguard flagrantly interfered before Hilda answered him. Turned out Connie had called to urge them to go back. Nathan checked the time. It's still early! We've only been out for less than two hours! Nathan could not have done anything to Connie's daughter in public within two hours. Even if he really wanted to do something to her, it was at most holding her ha
Diana was wondering how Nathan would react upon seeing her after all these years. She had become an A list superstar in Taadi whereas Nathan was had been forgotten by people after retiring three years ago. "Nathan is just a forgotten man. How dare he be this arrogant? Is he still reminiscing about his good old days?" "Miss Diana is the Queen of Taadi showbiz these days." All kinds of flattering came from her assistants as they gave her a massage and touched up her makeup. Taking selfies, Diana was extremely pleased by the adulation from them. Meanwhile, Hilda frowned as she looked at the scene. She knew that given Nathan's status, he would not need to be at these people's disposal. Hilda was worried that Luna would have to deal with these nasty people in the future if she really chose to become an actress. Luna, who had good hearing, could instantly hear that they were talking about her father. Pouting her lips, she turned to Hilda and asked, "Are they bad mouthing Daddy?" Thi
Three years ago, he was a stately prince who was high up there and could only be admired from afar, but now, he was merely a fallen prince. Getting him to sleep with me will be easy this time round. She then walked up to him in large strides, her eyes glinting. On the other hand, Nathan was questioning Director Lawn, who had already reached him. "What's going on?" The last scene had been tailored for Luna, and the original plan was to look for any actress to take Luna around the museum. However, it turned out that the actress was Diana Monni. Director Lawn became even more embarrassed as he mumbled, "Uhmm... As you know, I'm worried about the box office performance. I thought it would be desirable to have the cameo appearance of a few popular celebrities in this film." "Miss Monni offered to take the cameo role for free. All she wants is to meet you." Given Diana's identity in addition to her physical resemblance to Nathan's wife, Director Lawn thought he might as well matchmake
Speaking of Juliana, Diana couldn't stop grinding her teeth in anger. To her, Juliana was a third rate p*rnstar that didn't have any fame nor any endorsement deals. Did she think she was someone just because she won the Oscar's Award for Best Actress, which she only got after having sex with one of the judges? To be honest, Diana knew that Juliana was a famous actress that could easily make billions of box office sales for a movie. On the contrary, she could only appear in television shows or reality shows, and she would be considered lucky if her movie exceeded a box office of 1 billion. Everyone in the industry knew which types of jobs were better. Yet, she always believed that she wasn't inferior to Juliana. In fact, she started off better than Juliana, but Juliana was more prestigious than her now and she couldn't get past that fact. Therefore, she must compete against Juliana for everything. Since Juliana made a cameo in this movie, she definitely wouldn't allow it to be aire
In the kitchen, Hilda hummed a song while cooking vegetables. Seemingly sensing that Connie was thinking about her, she popped her head out from the kitchen. "Mom, I made your favorite minced meat eggplant." Connie was speechless. Hilda made simple yet pleasant home cooking dishes, such as shrimp soup, minced meat eggplant, tomato fried egg and a few other dishes, and they were delicious. Even Nathan rushed back just in time to drop by for dinner. After dinner, Hilda sat beside Johnathan and stared at him mysteriously, to the point that Johnathan started to become embarrassed. "Why are you staring at me?" With her eyes shining brightly, Hilda requested, "Can I touch your face?" Johnathan was lost for words. Hilda touched every part of Johnathan's face and she honestly couldn't find a single scar. Not only that, but his skin was also tender. They had gone to the same hospital so she believed that her face would recover as well as his face! Johnathan stayed at her house until it
After the meal, Nathan went to the bathroom and deliberately left his phone in the living room for Hilda to look after it. Nathan had two phones, one for his work and one for his personal use. Their usage was separated clearly. Hilda was in the living room collecting dog's fur while Luna took a nap in her room. Suddenly, Nathan's business phone rang and it was from an unknown number. Glancing in the direction of the bathroom, she didn't see Nathan come out so she decided to answer the call. Before she made a sound, the caller spoke. "Mr. Clemon, nice to meet you. I'm Miss Diana's assistant. I believe that you've read the news and Miss Diana wants me to tell you that this is just the first step. Soon, you'll receive the news that your ongoing project has been banned. Miss Diana is willing to support you so if you change your mind, please don't hesitate to contact us anytime." After saying those words, the assistant arrogantly and coldly hung up the phone, not wanting to waste even
The second day was the day Pourl unveiled their new products. Sonnia, Rex and Thomas had all come. Peace, representing their newspaper, had also come. Juliana had also turned down an event and made a special trip there to take a look. Backstage, the two fallen business men were ready to walk down the runway with their dogs. Nathan brought Kater along, while Kyle brought his giant poodle. Luna also enthusiastically wanted to do a catwalk too, and since they were the ones who organized the event, they let her have her fun. Luna would be walking with Snowball. Sonnia, Rex and Thomas were acting as hosts at the front, whereas Hilda was busy with the stuff backstage. She would split her attention to the models, then the dogs, and then to Luna and Nathan. Luna, who was about to go on a catwalk for the first time in her life, was extremely excited. She had been practicing for several days and was now following behind her father backstage, learning how to strut on a catwalk. Connie was o
Briana and Sahara looked at each other and reached a consensus. They had only one purpose, to stop Maya from marrying into the Clemon Family so easily and to disrupt Maya's product launch event. Briana was doing it because of Nathan, while Sahara was doing it for the internal conflicts of the Damien Family. But now, the question was, who was going to get involved? Sahara didn't dare to go. She was not afraid of Maya, but she was afraid of Nathan. Although he was a prince who was now past his prime, he was Nathan Clemon! Briana didn't dare to take the risk and stir up trouble either. But right now, the opportunity was here. Only Diana was not in the state of mind yet. The reason why she promised to come to shoot this shower gel advertisement today was because she deliberately wanted to go against Maya. Plus, Juliana was at the event next door and she wanted to prove that she was the superior star, which was why she was here. Halfway through the shooting, Diana got her makeup re
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
