"Since we are already husband and wife, shouldn't I call you dear?" replied Lucas.Julia did not respond to Lucas's question; she began to enjoy her lunch.She didn't reply to what he had just said because Julia didn't want to discuss it now.The girl had not developed feelings of love for Lucas, so she didn't think it was necessary to discuss the term 'dear'.As Julia remained silent, Lucas finally started to taste his lunch as well.During their meal, Harry, who was talkative, tried to ease the awkward atmosphere.Harry was so happy because the lunch menu ordered by Lucas matched his taste."After we finish lunch, let's go buy some ice cream, would you like that?" Lucas asked Harry."Yes, I want to! I want ice cream, thank you, Dad!" replied Harry happily, thrilled that he could finally have ice cream."Alright then, we should head to the ice cream shop!" Lucas signaled to the waiter standing near the entrance.The waiter quickly approached Lucas upon seeing his signal.Lucas took o
"Didn't you bump into me? You should be the one apologizing to me, why are you the one getting angry?" retorted Julia, her emotions ignited as the woman spoke arrogantly, feeling herself innocent."You bumped into me first!" shouted the woman, refusing to admit fault.Because of the woman's shout, the people in the restaurant lobby turned to look at them."Wait a minute! I think I know you!" the woman suddenly responded, staring sharply at Julia.Julia returned the woman's fierce gaze, sensing her hot-tempered and self-centered nature."Aren't you Julia? my foolish and lowly cousin? Oh, after five years of hiding, it seems you have changed beyond recognition! You're quite good at hiding, huh! Because of you, I had to replace you back then, you scoundrel! You damned you! I hold such a grudge against you!" yelled the woman, who turned out to be Julia's cousin.Julia stared even more sharply at the woman, observing her face that looked older than her age.Julia remembered that her cousin
After they left the restaurant, Lucas took Harry to eat ice cream, and after finishing the ice cream, Lucas then took his small family for a walk to the giant aquarium to see the fish.Harry was so delighted to see the fish in the tunnels of the giant aquarium."Papa, look, there's a wide fish!" exclaimed Harry joyfully as he saw the large Stingray swimming near the aquarium glass."That's called a Stingray, son, not a wide fish!" replied Lucas, explaining."Oh, a Stingray!" mumbled Harry, finally knowing the name of the fish that, according to him, had such a wide body.The three of them looked so happy enjoying their outing, showing their relationship growing closer.Meanwhile, in a lower-middle-class residential area, in a white-painted house with a standard small yard, a woman who had just arrived screamed as she threw things near her."I'm furious! I'm so annoyyyyed!" she screamed hysterically."What's wrong, Gina, why are you making a scene as soon as you arrive home!" replied a
After Lucas took his wife and son out for a walk, it was time for them to return to the villa.Lucas decided not to go back to the office; he wanted to spend more time with his little family."Dad, look! That shirt is so cool!" exclaimed Harry as they passed a children's clothing store.Harry pointed to a boy's outfit on a mannequin, displayed in a glass showcase in the clothing store's lobby.Lucas turned to look at the clothes his son pointed to, and Lucas realized that he hadn't bought anything for his wife and son since they had been living together."Do you want to buy that outfit?" Lucas asked Harry.The little boy's eyes lit up as he looked at the displayed clothing."Can I, Dad?" Harry asked back."Of course, you can. Let's go inside to try it on!" Lucas said, stepping into the children's clothing store.But as Lucas's foot was about to touch the lobby floor, his phone rang."Dad, I'll take the call first, you and Mom can go in first, okay?" said Lucas, then lowering Harry fro
As Lucas stepped into the store, he was surprised to see his wife and son walking towards the store's entrance."Why? Why didn't you buy the clothes?" asked Lucas, ignoring the store attendant's friendly attitude as she greeted his arrival."We didn't, Dad. Mom doesn't look like a rich person, so she's not allowed to buy clothes in this store, said the attendant sister!" Harry replied innocently, then pointed his finger at the store attendant who had just greeted Lucas warmly.Hearing what his son said, Lucas quickly turned to the store attendant.The store attendant's face instantly turned pale; she realized that the woman with the boy was indeed his wife.And, the woman with the boy was indeed a rich person, she just didn't dress like a rich person! thought the store attendant, becoming even paler.Lucas's sharp gaze made the attendant nervous."Is it true that only rich people are allowed to shop at this store? You're audacious to belittle my wife and child!" Lucas retorted sharply
Meanwhile, at the police station.Gina and her mother had been waiting for Julia's arrival for almost an hour, sitting at the police station with full confidence.They had already filed a report with the police about the violence committed by Lucas against Gina."Officer, why is the defendant taking so long to arrive? It's been almost an hour!" said Gina's mother in an angry tone."Sorry, Ma'am, if you can't wait patiently, please come back tomorrow. The person you are accusing is busy and cannot come to answer the police summons!" explained one of the police officers to Gina's mother.Bang!Aunt Julia slammed her hand on the table. She was angry to hear that Julia was late to answer the police summons."How can that be! I won't leave until that person comes and apologizes to my daughter. Can't you see the violence she has done?!" Gina's mother shouted, showing Gina's bruised wrist."If so, please be patient and wait. They are on their way!" replied the police officer."This can't go
Aunt Julia remembered their goal, wanting to get a billion dollars."Where is that fool, why didn't she come? That foolish girl is scared, isn't she!" shouted Gina's mother, standing proudly facing Edward."Who are you calling a fool, Ma'am?" Edward said, looking sharply at the old woman."Who else but that foolish Julia! It's outrageous that she assaulted her cousin, call her! Don't use intermediaries, she owes me a lot, call her!" Gina's mother shouted loudly."Is there any evidence that my lady committed violence against your daughter?" Edward asked, still calm while facing the two dramatic women."Lady? You call that fool a lady? Are you not mistaken calling that foolish girl 'lady'? That poor girl who has no one left, oh my goodness!" Gina's mother glared at Edward, then slapped her forehead, feeling that Edward was so stupid. How could that orphaned girl be called 'Lady'?"Because she is indeed my lady, the wife of my boss!" Edward replied flatly, looking at Gina's mother with e
At a children's clothing boutique.Lucas took Julia and his son to buy clothes.Lucas allowed Harry to buy any clothes his son wanted."Dad, look! I want that one!" Harry pointed at a child's outfit displayed on a mannequin inside the boutique."Son, you've already chosen so many, that's enough. We can buy more another time!" Julia reminded Harry to stop choosing more.Harry had probably chosen ten pairs of clothes, and Lucas had simply agreed to whatever Harry pointed to."There are still a few clothes he wants to choose, let him choose some more!" said Lucas, agreeing to Harry's request.Hearing what Lucas said, Julia was immediately annoyed.She wanted to teach her son to be frugal, but Lucas was teaching him to be wasteful.Julia didn't want her son to be spoiled later, having everything he wanted fulfilled.Just because Lucas had a lot of money, he fulfilled his son's every desire.Julia glared at Lucas, she knew Lucas loved Harry, but not like this, buying everything Harry point
