"I told you not to come closer, you still don't care, you still keep clinging to someone else's husband, you're a shameless woman!" Julia said sharply, her eyes looking fierce, staring at the woman."Sheila, are you alright, honey?" the middle-aged man said anxiously, quickly approaching the woman who was splashed by Julia.Seeing his daughter's face drenched, the man got angry."Hey! Who are you to dare splash my daughter, you're a jerk! What kind of low-class woman are you, you're so insolent!" the man shouted, pointing his finger at Julia's face.Seeing Julia being scolded by the man, made Harry unhappy, his mother was being insulted in public."You old geezer! Don't insult my Mama!" Harry shouted fiercely, then the little boy quickly walked towards the man.Bukk!"Aduhh!"Harry's little foot stomped on the man's expensive shoes, and then looked at the man with angry eyes, and tightly clenched jaws.Harry stood with his hands on his hips, bravely looking at the man, right in front
Lucas stopped his kiss, then gently stroked Julia's lips that he had just kissed.The man smiled softly at Julia, then he bent down to lift Harry's small body.Lucas carried Harry, then affectionately wrapped his arm around Julia's waist.He didn't care about the many eyes looking at them."Come on, Edward, we have a lot of things to take care of!" Lucas said, then stepped out, carrying Julia and Harry from the restaurant."Yes, sir!"Lucas wanted to settle this matter with his mother, he couldn't let his mother arrange his marriage as she pleased anymore.Lucas would stop his mother from arranging another marriage for him, because he wasn't interested in any other woman besides Julia."I'm sorry, darling, I didn't know that Mama had trapped me, she's really good at deceiving me, until I almost fell into her trap!" Lucas said, squeezing Julia's hand, then bringing it to his chest."Next time, Papa has to be more careful!" Harry said, responding to his father's explanation."Yes, son,
Lucas smiled contentedly, seeing his mother's shocked expression, finally he had succeeded in uncovering the mask of his mother's chosen woman.Lucas's father was already tired of warning his wife, for over-controlling Lucas's life."Now what, are you not satisfied yet seeing the appearance of the woman you think is honorable?" Piter asked his wife."I.. it's impossible, that's not Sheila!" Lisbeth said, denying what she had seen.Lucas shrugged, the man didn't care anymore about his mother's assessment who still didn't acknowledge her chosen woman."Don't introduce any more women to me, Julia is my wife for life!" Lucas said firmly.Lucas then left the Mansion with an unpleasant atmosphere towards his mother.The life that Lucas gave to his mother, since his father could no longer run the Sylvester Group, always gave the best.But, his mother still didn't seem satisfied.Before meeting Julia, he felt very troublesome to have a relationship with a woman.Lucas felt that a woman could
"What's this? Why are there so many clothes and shoes?" Julia asked, surprised to see the sight.The main room of the villa was like a women's clothing store."This is for you, darling, try it on, see if there's anything you like?" Lucas said casually."What? For me?" Julia was surprised to hear what Lucas said."Yes!""Why do you have to bring it home?" Julia asked, puzzled."So you can choose to your heart's content!" Lucas replied."Please, Madam, these are limited edition clothes from my boutique, if you're not satisfied with my selection, just tell me what kind of model you want, I'll design and make it for you!" said a formally dressed woman, standing not far from the clothes rack.Julia was stunned to hear the woman's explanation, it turned out that Lucas had ordered all the clothes and shoes, and bags for her directly from the boutique."Why?" Lucas asked, looking at Julia who turned to look at his face."Why are there so many, just two or three pairs will do!" Julia said disa
Julia released Lucas's embrace, then looked at Lucas."Isn't twelve pairs enough?" Julia asked."Listen, darling, I want to pamper you, make you what I want, so that Mama won't insult you, I want to show her that you are the best wife for me!" Lucas explained.Julia blinked, looking at Lucas, there was a feeling of happiness listening to Lucas's explanation."Okay, I'll choose some more!" Julia finally said.Julia didn't realize she had chosen almost all of the shoes that were brought from the shoe store.As a result, almost all the clothes, shoes, and handbags went into the walk-in closet in Lucas's room.And Julia didn't protest anymore to Lucas, she just followed whatever her husband wanted."Tonight, accompany me to the Anniversary party of Papa's former business partner, because Papa can't go, we'll represent him to go!" Lucas whispered in Julia's ear, when all of Julia's belongings were finished being arranged in the walk-in closet.Lucas hugged Julia from behind, wrapping his a
Julia just realized that high-society parties were all about appearances, everything someone wore became a target for scrutiny.Now Julia understood why Lucas bought her so many clothes.Julia would often go with Lucas to attend business partner meetings, or to certain parties.As Lucas's wife, she was also a reflection of Lucas.If his wife looked embarrassing, her husband would be affected, and it would be embarrassing for the husband."Yo, I didn't expect to see you here, my stupid cousin!" Julia suddenly heard her cousin Gina's voice, standing not far from her.Gina looked at Julia from head to toe."Wow.. wow, you're wearing a limited edition dress, which man are you seducing this time?" Gina asked, sneering with a smirk.Julia didn't expect to meet her cousin at this rich people's party.Her sharp tongue always insulted Julia with hurtful words, feeling that she was the most righteous and dignified woman."And, why are you here too? Is it with your Sugar daddy?" Julia asked casu
Lucas looked at the man his wife's cousin called her lover, he knew the man very well.The man was one of the staff in his office, if he wasn't mistaken, the man worked in the Marketing department.The man who was being embraced by Gina also looked towards Lucas and Julia, showing a fierce face upon hearing Gina's complaint."Is it true what my lover said? You're oppressing her? I will...!"Suddenly, the man stopped speaking, his body froze in place, unable to move.His eyes widened in shock, and his face then looked pale.The man pushed Gina's body roughly, then the man quickly bent down, facing Lucas."Mr... Mr. Lucas, forgive me, I was very insolent, I didn't know it was you, forgive me, Sir!" the man said fearfully.Gina was instantly shocked to see her lover's actions, she was wide-eyed in disbelief, seeing her lover show respect to the man Julia was embracing."Darling, what's this, why are you bowing to him, aren't you more powerful than him? That man is just a poor man!" Gina
Because she was so embarrassed, Gina decided to leave the party early."Hey! Wait! You can't just leave like that, apologize to my boss, because you've insulted his wife!" Gina's lover said, holding Gina's hand."Let me go! I want to leave!" Gina shouted, pulling her hand back."No! Before you apologize!" Gina's lover said, tightening his grip on Gina's hand.He had to teach Gina to be polite to Lucas, he didn't want to be fired by Lucas because of Gina's attitude, who had insulted her boss."Apologize to my wife!" Lucas's firm voice could be heard, making the man even more afraid.He pulled Gina's hand forcefully, and brought Gina in front of Julia.The man forcefully positioned Gina's body to apologize to Julia.The man's hand forcefully bowed Gina's head to apologize."Hurry! Apologize to Mr. Lucas's wife!" the man said loudly.Gina felt like crying, being humiliated like that in front of many people."If you want to provoke someone, you have to be careful about the situation and t
Harry was so happy to see his parents come to pick him up. The four-year-old ran toward his parents, who were standing at the school entrance. His face was beaming with happiness."Dad... Mom!" he shouted, running excitedly.Lucas crouched down, spreading his arms wide, welcoming his son who was running toward them. Harry's small body rushed into Lucas's embrace, and he wrapped his small arms around his father's neck."Dad, I'm so happy you came to pick me up!" the little boy said happily."How was school today, son?" Lucas asked, hugging his son tightly."I made a new friend, Dad. They like to be friends with me!" Harry said, telling him about his new friend."Harry! Harry! Wait!" A voice called out Harry's name loudly. A woman appeared, holding a water bottle in her hand."Thank goodness, you haven't left yet. You forgot your water bottle!" the woman said, handing Harry his water bottle."Huh!" Harry looked at the water bottle in the woman's hand in bewilderment. He felt like he had
In the car on the way to Harry's school, Julia sat silently, lost in thought. She was replaying her mother-in-law's yelling in her mind. Her thoughts were gloomy, caught in the dilemma of her marriage.An ordinary girl with no parents and no education to brag about. It was all true, what her mother-in-law had said. A poor girl who was always abused and oppressed by her aunt and cousin.She had met a super-rich CEO by chance, due to an unexpected mistake. And she had never tried to charm the man, because it was impossible for a girl like her, a lower-class girl who wasn't worthy of a glance. But unexpectedly, the rich man was captivated by her. And without realizing it, her feelings began to grow for him slowly.They ended up falling in love. And now, should she leave the love she had found? The love she had long dreamed of and felt in her life?Someone would be hurt if she left: her, her son, and her husband. Lucas had been waiting for a long time to find her. And Harry's love for his
Lisbeth was startled when someone grabbed her hand. When she saw who was holding her hand, the old woman was even more shocked."Lu... Lucas!" she muttered, her eyes wide."So this is why Mom wanted to meet my wife?" Lucas said, his face filled with anger, his gaze sharp as he looked at his mother."No... no, it's not like that. She was disrespectful to me, so I wanted to teach her a lesson, to make her know who she really is," Lisbeth said defensively.Lucas released his mother's hand, which was about to slap Julia's face."Mom, you're becoming shameless. Didn't you provoke Julia, making her talk to you like that? I heard everything you said to her!" Lucas said."I... I..." Lisbeth couldn't defend herself anymore."What is this? Mom, you value my self-worth at five billion so my wife will leave me?!" Lucas said, his voice getting sharper. He grabbed the thick envelope from the table and showed it to his mother's face.Lisbeth's face turned pale as she saw the envelope Lucas was holdi
Julia stared at the thick envelope in front of her, her gaze distant. The envelope looked so thick and solid. Five billion. Inside the envelope, her mother-in-law had neatly arranged five billion. Had she gone to the bank first before meeting me?Julia's mind raced, thinking about her mother-in-law, who had clearly planned to get rid of her from Lucas's life.Julia's eyes locked on her mother-in-law's, unblinking. Her hands were clenched tightly."What do you mean, Mom? I don't understand!" Julia said."Don't call me Mom. I'm not your Mom! Can't you hear what I said? Leave Lucas. He's my precious son. He's not worthy of you!" Lisbeth said, her voice rising.Julia swallowed hard. Her heart ached. Her mother-in-law hated her so much."I won't leave Lucas. I love him. He's the father of my son. We have to be together," Julia said after calming herself for a moment.Lisbeth's face immediately showed displeasure. Her sharp gaze pierced Julia."He's my son. I have the right to him because I
Lucas took Julia to the car showroom and let her choose the car she wanted. Julia, who was clueless about cars, didn't know what kind of model would be suitable for a woman.She saw a red car, and its color and design looked elegant and luxurious."What about that one? I like the color and shape!" Julia said, pointing to the car she wanted."Oh, a Toyota GR Supra. You have excellent taste, sweetheart! That's a great car!" Lucas said, smiling broadly. He didn't expect his wife to choose such a classy car."If it's too expensive, I don't want it. Let's get something cheaper," Julia said, following Lucas from behind.They approached the car Julia had pointed out, and Lucas carefully examined it."This is the latest model, sir. It's perfect for your wife. Your wife has excellent taste in cars!" the showroom manager said."Alright, we'll take this one. Please deliver it to this address," Lucas gave the address of the villa.Then they made the purchase.After buying the car for his wife, Lu
The next morning, Julia woke up late. It was unusual for her to oversleep, and she scrambled out of bed in a panic. But a hand pulled her back, drawing her into someone's embrace."Where are you going, sweetheart? Why are you in such a hurry?" Lucas was still in bed with her, still snuggled under the covers.Julia looked at Lucas, who was still closing his eyes, slowly opening them. Lucas's sleepy eyes met Julia's gaze."I have to take Harry to school!" Julia said."Our son already left, sweetheart. I sent the nanny to take him to school. We'll pick him up after school," Lucas said, stroking Julia's cheek."Oh, he's already gone?" Julia put her head back on the pillow.Lucas hugged Julia's waist, resting his chin on top of his wife's head."Sweetheart, we haven't had our wedding reception yet. Tell me when you want to have it," Lucas asked.Julia thought about what Lucas said."When your mom accepts me for who I am," Julia replied."Alright, I'll convince Mom that you're the best daug
Lucas felt Julia was running out of breath, so he released their kiss.The man smiled broadly, seeing his wife's flushed face, and her wet, parted lips."You're so beautiful, darling," Lucas whispered in Julia's ear, "I want to eat you!"Julia's face flushed even more, hearing Lucas's whisper, blushing with embarrassment, she pinched Lucas's arm."Ouch!" Lucas pretended to be in pain from Julia's pinch, which didn't hurt at all.Julia was instantly surprised to hear Lucas's cry of pain, it turned out that her pinch felt so painful."Sorry," Julia muttered, feeling guilty, then stroked Lucas's arm that she had just pinched.Lucas's smile widened, he was so happy, seeing Julia feeling guilty for hurting him."My darling, you're really so innocent!" Lucas said, pulling Julia into his embrace, then kissing his wife's neck.Lucas didn't expect to have a wife who was so adorable, making him love Julia even more."Let's go home, I want to continue our kiss from earlier," Lucas whispered in J
Lucas felt the atmosphere inside the car was so gloomy, he felt very uncomfortable."Darling, I'm sorry!" Lucas said, breaking the silence, he was indeed outrageous for not taking care of Julia's feelings earlier."Forgive me, I was really over the top, I felt so smart and thought you were just talking nonsense, I was stupid, I should have realized that you know more about your cousin than I do!" Lucas said again, regretfully.Julia was silent, she didn't respond to what Lucas said.Julia looked out the car window in silence, calmly observing the street scene.Lucas became increasingly uncomfortable with Julia's silence, he felt more and more uneasy.Lucas glanced at Julia, who was looking out the car window, without any intention of turning towards him.Lucas's long hand reached for Julia's hand that was on his wife's lap.Lucas grasped the small hand, and squeezed it gently."Darling!" Lucas called again.Julia still didn't respond to Lucas's call, and it made Lucas unbearable anymo
Lucas just learned about Julia always helping her aunt's finances.Edward didn't tell him about this issue, Lucas's feelings were mixed, hearing Julia's words just now."What do you mean, darling, did you work when you lived with them?" Lucas asked curiously."Yes, and it was never enough, until one day the loan shark came to collect their debt!" Julia began to explain."It's because of the high cost of living, so it takes a lot of money, plus you living with us, where did all that come from? So, Mama took the initiative to borrow money from the loan shark, and it turned out the interest was very high, Mama's debt piled up!" Gina said."Nonsense, you're a spendthrift! You always spend money lavishly, until you intend to sell me because you're tempted by the big payment!" Julia said, refuting everything Gina said."You should have been the one in that room, you've messed up my life, you've ruined my future!" Gina shouted."Oh, is that so! And don't you have the nerve to say that? You r
