At that moment, everyone gathered in her room. Thomas comforted her, "Everything will be fine. He might be back real soon." Though Rex was mad at Nathan for asking Kater to fetch the goods for two months which had even caused his dog to gain muscles, his anger had vanished now that such a situation occurred. Anxiously, he questioned Kyle, "Why did you let commander go find the missing person? He is the boss. What if something happened to him?" Kyle looked glum too. At first, he was with Nathan, but they came across a blizzard which reduced their visibility, and Nathan had disappeared in the blink of an eye. He had trudged through the thick snow for some time to search for Nathan, but he still couldn't find him. When the snow got so heavy that one could hardly totter through it anymore, he left the mountain, thinking Nathan could have gone down the mountain too. Never did he expect that Nathan still had not returned. Glancing at Hilda, Kyle then told her the truth. "The person who
Late at night in Taadi City, Luna's screams and wailing could be heard from the Aebasa residence. Luna was rolling on the ground while crying, "I want to see daddy! Daddy!" The few nannies didn't know what to do and Connie was so anxious, she was drenched in sweat. She then picked up Luna and held her in her arms as she tried to coax her. "Your daddy is working in the middle of the mountains and there is no signal there, so he can't call you!" Luna didn't understand what Connie was saying at all, and all she wanted was to see her father. Her cries were so loud, nobody in the house could sleep. Everyone surrounded her and tried to comfort her. Linux was also anxious. He took Luna from Connie's arms to help coax her, but she writhed in his arms. She wouldn't go to sleep without seeing her father and she cried the whole night. She wouldn't even eat and her voice was hoarse from all the crying. Both Connie and Linux couldn't stop her from crying. Luna continued wailing and sobbing
That woman was Teresa. From the looks of it, it seemed like Nathan found her last night and the two of them had spent the night together. It was as if Teresa was injured but she was rescued by her 'My love' and at that moment, the two of them were walking out of the snow, ready to embrace a new life together. Seeing this, Hilda felt upset. She turned off the screen and put her phone away. Then, she rushed toward Nathan's direction. It was hard to find a landing spot in the mountains so the plane could only hover nearby and pick up the injured Teresa first while the ground rescue team made their way over. Unable to contain her joy, Hilda rushed to the forefront and walked briskly. Half an hour later, she finally found Nathan. Among the white snow, Hilda saw him dressed in black winter clothes and goggles, standing in the snow with his back facing her. The plane was still hovering over him and they were lowering the rescue gondola. A few people got off the plane and worked togeth
Her phone was oddly simple. There wasn't any chat software's, her mailbox was empty, there were only a few saved contacts in her phone, and her communication records were all erased. This isn't right. I probably triggered some kind of security defense system. When the system senses that somebody is forcibly cracking into the phone, it will automatically back up all information before destroying important information stored in the phone. Later, Hilda stared at a selfie in Teresa's photo album in a daze. Teresa Jordan. Then, she turned on her computer and logged into the genealogy system. Even though the Jordan family was very old and the family name was passed down from the Middle Ages to the modern age, their ancestors were really advanced! They had already set up their own family website and forum twenty years ago, and they also had an electronic version of the record book. Hilda logged into the record system and typed in 'Teresa Jordan'. Many family members' data popped up. Aft
Hilda had arranged four subordinates for him and all the tips would be paid to him, so only a fool would leave. Seeing this, Rex was so angry, he directly went back to Taadi City and announced that he would sever ties with his 'son'. Under the care of his beloved wife, Nathan was full of energy. He did his best to finish his work, and everything ended smoothly. After they finished, Hilda delivered the Alaskan dogs back to where they came from and sent Cereberus and Snowball back to Taadi City. She and Nathan were not in a hurry to go home, they travelled around and went back just before new year celebrations. Aebasa residence, which had a history of more than a hundred years, was about to welcome three huskies who had developed strong muscles. Everyone in the house trembled in fear. Connie was really mad at Hilda. It's hard to keep my grown up daughter by my side and all she does is make me worry about her. She hasn't returned until now, but she sent the dogs back. Those three
In Connie's study, a woman was sitting gracefully on the sofa with her long, blonde hair elegantly draped over her shoulder. She was wearing a simple yet tasteful lavender long dress and a nude pantyhose. Currently, she was reporting some work progress to Connie. After a brief report, Connie asked with care, "Teresa, how is your injury?" That woman was none other than Teresa. Touching her wound, Teresa replied, "It's just a superficial wound so it's not a big deal. Besides, Mr. Clemon is an expert in treating wounds and since it was treated in time, it's almost recovered now." Connie nodded and said, "Sorry for troubling you this time." Teresa smiled heartily and replied, "It's not troublesome at all. I've always wanted to visit Taadi so this is a great opportunity to fulfil my wish. Unfortunately, I seem to have failed the task you gave me, Connie." Speaking of that, Teresa couldn't help but sigh before continuing, "I've been trying to contact Mr. Clemon lately, but he seems to
The Jordan Family treated both girls and boys fairly and didn't practice the tradition where only males could inherit the family's assets. In fact, there had been numerous female family heads in the past. The Jordan Family even hoped that they had more illegitimate children like Giry because in that case, outstanding female members of the family like Teresa would remain unmarried, and no weird men could take the opportunity to get married into the family for their own interest. Children with the family's noble bloodline would never be abandoned, and neither would they have another surname besides Jordan. Therefore, many of the successful women in the Jordan Family would remain unmarried in order to prevent issues that might come with marriage. For them, marriage was a hair pulling issue. They weren't interested in weak men while outstanding men weren't willing to marry into the women's families. Besides, if they were to marry a man, they would have to give up their surname. Therefor
Giry was sick and had a fever. His body temperature didn't seem to decrease even after being hospitalized for two days, causing Connie to be anxious. It so happened that Teresa and Linux had gone abroad for business so she was reluctant to inform Teresa about Giry's situation, afraid that she might be worried. Besides, Connie felt embarrassed to tell Teresa that Giry fell ill right after he moved into her house. Upon knowing this, Samuel took the initiative to visit Giry at the hospital. Upon a brief examination, he noticed that Giry's blue eyes seemed to have lost their vitality so he said, "Giry must have come into contact with an evil energy. Children have weaker immune systems but it's nothing serious. He'll be fine with some black dog's blood." Without delay, Connie sent his men to his house and collected a big bowl of his beloved dog, Corrado's blood. Then, Samuel dipped his fingers in the black dog's blood and smeared it on Giry's face. At the same time, he said gently, "Ev
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
