Sonnia rushed out of the office whiles cursing under her breathe. 'Was it that b*tch's voice I just heard? She had no fear showing herself here after what she did to Hilda.'In the fitting room,"Miss, this dress looks so good on you." The shop attendant who helped Carmen with the gown praised.Carmen who was delighted as she watched herself in the mirror replied haughtily. "Thank you but I can see."With that, she walked up and down in the gown as she admired herself in the mirror happily. She walked out after a while of admiring herself."Aunt." She called out shyly as soon as she came out of the fitting room."Aww my dear, you look really stunning." Mrs. Stephenson said as soon as she cast her eyes on Carmen. And that was no lie. The wedding gown has accentuated Carmen's curves and the off shoulder fitted top part wrapped around her boobs had her looking so dashing.Even Sonnia who was currently looking at Carmen had her mouth wide open. She looked completed out of space. She could
"Oh, how could she!""What the hell?""Did she just push her?"The shoppers in the shop whispered among themselves when Carmen fell down. Of course, everyone had seen that Carmen was on the floor because Sonnia pushed her. But what they didn't know was that, the only thing Sonnia did was to pull her hand away from Carmen's grip without any force and that Carmen fell on her own accord."Ouch" Carmen groaned as she tried to get up from the floor.Mrs. Stephenson reached out to help her. After Carmen was up, Mrs. Stephenson turned and 'Smack'. A sound was heard.Sonnia couldn't believe it. She had been slapped. Holding her cheeks, she stared at Mrs. Stephenson with her hand on her cheeks. "You slapped me?" She couldn't comprehend what had just happened."Yes I did. And I wouldn't mind doing it over and over again if you don't stop disrespecting us." Mrs. Stephenson said angrily. She didn't expect that Carmen would be pushed down by Sonnia. And to her, Sonnia was acting too pompous."Is t
"What the hell did you think you were about to do?" Daniel hurriedly pushed Hilda out of the way. Causing both her and Debbie who had held onto her to stagger a few steps back, losing their balance, they fell back down onto the cold hard floor."Ouch!" They hissed in pain. Since they both hadn't seen the push coming, they fell so hard that they were in pain.Hilda stood up hurriedly and help Debbie up from the floor. Just when she was about to call out on Daniel's behavior, they all heard the sound of hurried footsteps coming in their direction. The footsteps seemed to be for more than two people. Turning to the direction of the entrance of the bridal shop, she was greeted with the sounds of a series of foot steps walking into the shop.Initially, Sonnia and the others had a hunch that it was their special guest who had an appointment with them that had arrived.Nevertheless, their gut instincts were proven wrong seconds later when a muscular middle aged man emerged with a dozen of h
Daniel followed the police van all the way back to the police station. And he called his lawyer have him join him out there.Moreover, Emmet dispersed the curious horde of reporters and on lookers gathered around the scene in the shop. Who wouldn't want a good and juicy story on Carmen? After all she is a rising super star who shot to fame not long ago. Juicy stories like these are worth a lot.Once the last of the shoppers vanished to continue with their shopping, he finally turned towards Debbie with an apologetic look. "Babe, Miss Sonnia, please accept my sincerest apologies. This incident had happen because I didn't carry my job out properly. Once I return, I will take the necessary steps to improve the city's public security. This rich family won't get to be abusing their powers anymore." Emmett said as he held onto Debbie's waist sweetly.Debbie smiled and nodded. "It isn't entirely your fault. After all the trouble came from Carmen."Emmett smiled bitterly. "Truthfully, most of
Gamblers addicted to the vice had no sense of kindness, loyalty or pride. They would do anything to get their hands on money to fuel their addiction. They would have no qualms about cheating or betraying even their loved ones.It was not uncommon to hear gamblers stealing their elderly parent's last savings or selling their wives into the prostitution in order to raise funds to continue with their gambling.His cousin, the addict, was the best candidate they could get to turn the burning hatred his dad got for Nathan to fuel that of Nathan's death.Over the following months, Mr. Richard stuck to his plan of extracting his son back by destroying Nathan., and carried it out accordingly.Kyle and Samuel had just walked out of Nathan's ward when he received a video call. His folded temples slowly loosened as he looked at the caller Id. It was Hilda's call.Hilda had been transferred to a hospital in V country for her treatment. After unpacking everything with the help of Nuella and settli
Nathan who was always cautious about his environment at this time had no idea that someone has entered his ward. He pouted like an aggrieved child and begrudged. "What do you mean by am I happy? Did you say it for me to be happy or because you meant it?"Hilda didn't know how to respond. Of course she said it because she meant it. But knowing how narcissistic Nathan was, she didn't want to admit it. As she was thinking about how to respond, she caught a glimpse of someone else in the video call.She was so shocked that she had her mouth wide open. Using her eyes, she was trying to get Nathan's attention to someone standing behind him. But Nathan was so focus on how Hilda should call him that he had no idea what she was trying to do."Is something wrong with your eyes? Why are you opening them this wide? And why is your jaw dropped? Close your mouth. Or you are trying to scare me?" He asked confused.Hilda shook her head at him. But he still didn't get it."Babe, are you okay?" He aske
"Dad, I'm married. And before you all will get mad, you all should hear me out first." Nathan said.Mr. Clemon couldn't believe his ears. "What's there to listen to? Who did you get married to?" He asked."Dad, I don't think you might remember who she is." Nathan replied."What do you mean by that? Is she from any of the reclusive families?" Mrs. Clemon asked.Although the four great families had immerse influence and wealth, there was also the reclusive families. They were two families with elite members in every sector. Although they have wealth and power, they were second to the four big and powerful families.As Nathan would have to marry someone from his own social background, Gloria had been the perfect match since she has both the power and wealth as their family and not forgetting, she was childhood sweethearts with Nathan.But Now that Nathan is married and not with Gloria, it was only reasonable that he would choose someone from the reclusive family to be his wife. Because a
Hilda who was so anxious after Nathan hanged up the call was just asking Nuella non stop questions about what she thinks was happening between Nathan and his mom.. "Do you think they might know by now?""Do you think Nathan has told her?""If he did tell her, will she like me?""What would she think about me?""Maybe Nathan told him something else and not us being married.""Nuella what do you think?" She looked up at Nuella at this time.Nuella sighed as she looked at the anxious Hilda."Say something already Nuella. I'm going crazy just by thinking about it.""Calm down Hilda. I know Nathan's parents and I'm sure they will be glad to find out that Nathan is finally married and to someone as pretty as you are.""You shouldn't be worry because this I know for a fact, Mrs. Clemon will adore you like her own child." Nuella held her by the hand, knelt in front of her in the wheel chair and told her looking straight into her eyes.Nuella had hardly finished when a phone rang. "Your phone
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
