It was a beautiful woman about five-foot-seven in height. Her curly hair was dyed purple-red. She had the typical face of an internet celebrity -- big eyes, a tapered chin, apple-red lips, and puffy cheeks. She had heavy makeup on her face, though it was obvious that she had many hyaluronic acid injections. Her appearance made her stand out from the rest of the tour group. Bianca could tell that the woman was Hera Sanchez, her classmate in junior high. Hera was once the prom queen. She was quite different from how she looked in high school, but her overall shape did not change. Bianca remembered Hera very well because she used to be her bully. Bianca did not remember the names of the two young women next to her, but she remembered seeing them before. They were part of Hera's gang. Hera was hugging the arm of a plump middle-aged man and resting her head on that man's shoulder. The man was a full head shorter than Hera. His face was as round as a plate, and his eyes w
Hera chuckled and spoke to Bianca arrogantly, "I'd love to bring my classmates on a trip, but I don't think I can do it this year." Bianca blinked, and a hint of mockery appeared on her lips. "Oh, why is that?" Hera grinned smugly. "You should know that you need a visa to travel, and it's such a hassle to apply for one. It'll take forever for everyone to get ready. Also, everyone's busy with their careers and families now, and we won't gather everyone. What's the point if we can't get everyone?" She thought that she was quite smart for thinking of such an excuse. Once she got out there, Bianca would not be able to find her. Bianca frowned. "There are some countries…" She wanted to say that certain countries, such as the Maldives and Mauritius, did not require a visa or offered visas upon arrival. Hera interjected before she could finish her sentence. She opened her eyes exaggeratedly. "You look confused. Don't tell me that you don't even have a passport!" Minnie and A
Hera was shocked by Luke's icy gaze. She felt as though her heart was popping out of her chest. She tried to calm herself down while still trying to dress down Bianca. "You probably don't know about her, Luke. Bianca and I used to be from the same town, and she's been a sleazy girl since I knew her. Not only does she have multiple boyfriends, but I've also heard that she secretly dates her teacher and trades her body for good results. Don't be deceived by her pure looks." Bianca crossed her arms and watched in amusement how Hera was trying to slander her. If she had a shorter temper, she would have slapped Hera several times already. Of course, she did not do that. If Hera found out that the "pathetic worm" had become Luke's wife, Bianca could not imagine the expression on her face! 'Hmm… this'll be interesting.' Bianca could not help but grin when she thought of how Hera was digging her own grave. Hera thought that Bianca's grin was supposed to instigate her. She gla
The people from the tour group began to discuss animatedly after hearing what Luke said. A girl with a round face almost collapsed. Her friend managed to steady her. "I didn't expect that the girl was Mr. Crawford's wife. If that's the case, she couldn't have smuggled here…" They did not expect that sudden revelation. The subject of ridicule was actually the wife of the CEO of T Corporation. "That's right!" The round-faced girl's friend was a tall young woman in glasses. "I thought that she looked somewhat extraordinary earlier. I bet Hera insulted her only because she's jealous of her." "Right. Hera looked so confident too! I nearly believed her. Tsk tsk, how shameless!" "Mr. Crawford's wife is so pretty. Look, I don't think she's wearing any makeup. Her skin is so smooth. She's the perfect match with Mr. Crawford." "Look at Hera's boyfriend. He might be rich, but he's probably a windfall tycoon… Not to mention he looks like a pig. Poor Hera… heheh…" Hera became the fo
Bianca and Luke's honeymoon lasted for almost two weeks. On the last day of their honeymoon, they had planned to take a flight back to A City. However, Percy's cruise ship happened to dock in the city they were in, and he invited the newly-wed couple on board. The couple delayed their plans of returning and went on the ship. The Mallory family ship was called the Zephyr. It was the property of the Mallory family, and it could sail freely on the open sea. The cruise ship was more than ten floors high and could hold more than a thousand passengers. It cost a billion to build it. The amenities of the luxury cruise ship included buffet restaurants, swimming pools, clubs, bars, gyms, galleries, space simulator rides, casinos, and so on. Only the top hundred wealthiest individuals in the world would receive an invitation to board the cruise ship. All other passengers would have to pay for an expensive ticket to enjoy what the ship had to offer. Everything above the tenth floo
To Bianca, that young girl was innocent, carefree, and perhaps a little too naïve. She could not bear to see Nina being embarrassed, so she blocked Daphne's hand and asked her, "Are you really Percy's younger sister?" "Of course. Don't you think that I look like Percy?" The girl smiled brilliantly like the starry sky. She looked like an angel. Bianca carefully studied Percy and Daphne's faces. Other than the face, there was no similarity at all. Percy's eyes were thin, almond-shaped, and had an exotic charm to them. On the other hand, Daphne's eyes were round like a cat's eyes and had a glint of mischief in them. Most importantly, what differentiated Daphne from her elder brother was her warm, sweet, and innocent demeanor, unlike Percy, who seemed like the devil. No one would have realized that the cold and ruthless man would be related to the adorable young girl. "Welcome back to the Zephyr, Ms. Daphne." Several servants stood neatly in a row and greeted Daphne. Da
Nina lowered her head and used her shoulder-length hair to obscure her face. She did not want anyone to see her weakness, especially that man in front of her. "Don't you feel any affection for me after being together for so long?" Percy smiled sinisterly as he gripped Nina's jaw and maintained his superior demeanor. Nina felt her heart wrench. Her head remained lowered. "Both of us have something we want, and affection doesn't come into the picture. If I have any affection toward you, it's because I can't find a more generous man." Nina's voice was soft, but her words were mocking. Percy's sinister gaze wavered. He turned her around by her shoulders. "Do you like it here?" Nina tried to swallow her tears, but she could not control them from falling down her face. She lifted her head to look at the boundless blue sky. When she managed to compose herself, she nodded without showing any hint of her previous emotions. "The sea and the sky are beautiful. I don't think anyone
Nina's face turned pale very quickly after seeing Pierre's appearance. Even her body began to tremble slightly. "You don't look too good, Nina. Do you want to go back and rest in your cabin?" Bianca also noticed Pierre. The same hatred appeared in her eyes, and she held onto Nina's hand to comfort her. Nina's heart turned cold when she saw the man who had gravely hurt her appear in front of her eyes as though nothing happened. The sensation was like walking on a knife's edge. The pain spread through her limbs. Pierre Mallory, that animal that had ruined her life! "Nina…" Bianca seemed worried about the change in Nina's demeanor. "How about…" Nina shook her head and said determinedly, "Don't worry about me, Bea. You don't have to try to comfort me. I'll eventually have to face this obstacle myself. Moreover, I'm not the one who's at fault here. Why should I suffer alone while the culprit remains free?" Nina nearly screamed when she asked that question. She was quite an
