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

As the car was approaching the villa, Lucas's phone vibrated.After looking at the name on his phone screen, Lucas answered the call."Hello!" Lucas answered, and then listened to what someone on the other end was saying.Lucas then turned off his phone."Harry, Dad will only drop you both off at the gate, because Dad has urgent business to take care of. Dad will be back before dinner, okay?" Lucas said, stroking Harry's head."Okay, Dad!" replied Harry, nodding.Lucas turned to Julia, who was unaffected by the business that Lucas had to handle. She seemed to be looking out of the car window."Julia!" Lucas called out."Yes!" Julia replied calmly, then turned to look at Lucas with a nonchalant gaze."I won't get out of the car with you, I have urgent business to take care of.""Alright!" Julia replied calmly."You don't ask what business I have to take care of?" Lucas asked, staring intensely at Julia.Julia shrugged, seemingly indifferent. As a CEO, Lucas definitely had a lot to take

They were watching television, and before they knew it, it was dinner time.Knock! Knock! Knock!A female servant stood at the doorway of the lounge."Madam, is dinner ready to be served at the dining table now?" she asked."It's already seven o'clock, isn't it?" Julia said."Yes, Madam!""Wait a little longer, Mr. Lucas isn't home yet!""Okay, Madam, excuse me!" the maid replied, then left."Dad said he'd be home before seven, why is he late?" asked Harry, confused."Your dad is a businessman, Harry. There must be many unexpected urgent matters, so he can't be guaranteed to be on time. Let's wait a little longer, if he's not home yet, we'll eat first!" Julia said, patting Harry's head."Okay, Mom!"They waited for Lucas.Half an hour later, the man still hadn't arrived."Mom, I'm hungry!" Harry said."Let's eat!" Julia got up from her seat.Julia took Harry to the dining room."Please serve dinner, Bik. Mr. Lucas probably still has a lot of business to attend to, he's late to come ho

Lucas was not really happy with his mother's forceful request for him to come quickly with the words 'don't take long'.Threatening him that he wouldn't eat if Lucas didn't come soon.He was a grown man who didn't need to be controlled and forced. It was something he didn't like.Not only because he was the only son who was replacing his father, becoming the backbone of their family, his mother could command him whenever she wanted.The man stared at his mother sharply.Lisbet lay on the sofa, showing her injured hand. The old woman deliberately staged a fall in the bathroom to ask Lucas to come to the mansion."Mom, you're not a little kid anymore, this isn't funny, Mom. There are many people here who can help you. Don't make an unfunny joke!" Lucas snapped."Honey, you've changed in the last few days. You're not caring for Mom anymore!""Mom, your son is now a grown man and is married. I have a family that I need to take care of. Mom, don't make me look like a man who prioritizes my

Lucas got up from his seat. He didn't want to talk any further with his mother. The situation would only get heated."That's it! There's no use explaining everything to you, Mom, because you are too jealous of my wife!" said Lucas."Wait, Lucas! Don't leave yet. Have dinner with us. Aunt has prepared your favorite food!" Lisbet said quickly. The old woman quickly sat upright."My wife and son are waiting for me at home. I can't have dinner with you!" Lucas said, indifferent."Lucas! Wait! Mom won't force you to come here every day for dinner anymore, but for tonight, eat with us!" Lisbet pleaded.Lucas pressed his temples. He felt his mother was becoming more and more selfish every day."Alright, I'll have dinner with you, but I can't stay with you for too long at the dinner table. My wife and son are waiting for me at home!" Lucas finally conceded.Then the man hurried towards the dining room."I'll help Aunt set up dinner on the dining table!" Lucas's cousin said quickly, and hurrie

He had only eaten two spoonfuls when Lucas felt his head heavy.Clang!The spoon fell from his hand."Lucas, what's wrong?" Adelia asked in surprise."I don't know, my head feels so heavy!" Lucas replied, feeling his vision also getting heavy.Lucas felt his head getting heavier, he felt sleepy."What time is it?" Lucas asked."It's past seven, Lucas!" Adelia replied."I have to go home. I've been here too long!" Lucas said, then slowly got up from his seat.When Lucas stood up, his body suddenly swayed to the side."Be careful, Lucas! Let me help you get out!" Miranda said, quickly getting up from her seat."What did you say?" Adelia's eyes widened in disbelief at Miranda's words."I will help Lucas get out. He said he wanted to go home, right?" Miranda said as she walked towards Lucas, who looked unsteady."Yes, go ahead and help Lucas, be careful guiding him!" Lisbet agreed, allowing Miranda to help Lucas walk out of the mansion."Stop right there!!" Adelia shouted, pointing her fi

After closing Lucas's bedroom door properly, Adelia returned to the dining room.As she approached the dining room, Adelia heard her mother advising Miranda, but it was not a pleasant advice to hear."You are so stupid! Why did you approach Lucas that way? Don't use that kind of method if you want to win Lucas's heart. You need to be more patient to win his heart. Don't force yourself, and then you get caught like that!" Lisbet scolded Miranda."I'm sorry, Aunt. I've tried to do what you suggested, but Lucas is too cold to me. It's very difficult to please him!" Miranda said sadly."That's why you need to be a little more patient. Why are you being so forceful? Act more gracefully, don't be too aggressive. I want him to leave that woman who is of unknown origin soon!" Lisbet said sarcastically."What you said is true. That woman must have said something to make Lucas believe her. What if we investigate about that girl? Didn't you see that she was too young to give birth to a son, and

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
