The naive girl looked at the speaker who made the statement and was shocked. She knew a threat when she saw one. This person was no ordinary person. Her appearance was more captivating than anything she had ever seen. Her lips and eyes spoke volumes on their own. She possessed a rare beauty, one that could bring down a country. Although she had always been known for her beauty, she paled in comparison to this woman. The jealous and pretentious lady was none other than Emma herself. She knew Bella was the one who took the dress first, but she simply wanted the dress for herself, using other people. And she almost succeeded until Anna showed up. "As I said, her apology is accepted," Anna declared firmly. "There is no need for her to continue begging as if she had been bullied." The gathered crowd gasped when they saw Anna. This was a rare beauty, the kind they usually only saw in movies. But this lady's beauty was even more extraordinary. It was pure and commanding, something that capt

Cecilia sat in the hall, sipping tea, when she noticed Emma entering with a grumpy expression on her face. She knew her daughter well enough to recognize that look, which only appeared when she was truly annoyed or angered by someone. "My dear, what's with that look on your face?" Cecilia asked with concern, motioning for Emma to join her on the couch. "I want that fake store to be permanently shut down," Emma said angrily, recalling how she had been humiliated and looked down upon with disdain. Cecilia, unaware of the details, continued to inquire, "What happened, honey? Who dared to make you angry? Don't they know you're the Thompson princess?" She tried to coax Emma into sharing what had transpired. "Don't worry, just tell me what's bothering you, okay?" Cecilia reassured her. Finally, after some coaxing, Emma decided to tell her mother what had happened. She recounted how she had almost been tricked into buying a counterfeit dress and how Anna had disgraced her in front of pro

Cecilia answered Emma's questions calmly, aiming to avoid arousing any suspicion. She had dealt with similar inquiries in the past, like when Tony had asked her, and she had provided satisfactory explanations. There was no reason to deviate from that approach now. "Just remember, my dear, I have my own methods, and if you encounter anything beyond your capabilities, come to me, okay?" Cecilia reassured Emma with confidence, putting her daughter's concerns to rest. "Okay, I'll be out buying things for grandma's birthday. I'll be back soon," Emma replied, seemingly satisfied with her mother's response. Cecilia collected her bag from the maid and left the house, unaware of the scornful look Emma gave her retreating figure. Emma believed her mother must have resorted to extreme measures to obtain the assistance she needed. However, Emma was unconcerned as long as it didn't implicate her in any way. Her current focus was on Nagid, who had become distant since the incident at the hospital

At Cesa Company, Nagid carefully examined the information presented to him. After the incident in Russia, he had been maintaining a low profile and even avoiding the Thompson family for a while, including Emma.It wasn't because he was afraid or guilty, but because he was planning a big surprise for them. He eagerly anticipated the expressions on their faces when it finally happened. He couldn't wait for that moment.His phone rang, interrupting his thoughts. It was a call from his secretary."Sir, Miss Emma is here to see you," his secretary informed him."Okay," Nagid replied curtly and ended the call.It seemed his dear wife couldn't wait any longer. She must have something for him to accomplish, which was why she had come. But that wasn't his concern because he was already expecting her.He heard the office door open. Without even looking up, he knew it was her.He continued going through his files without raising his head. Emma frowned as she observed that he hadn't stopped lookin

In the outskirts of the city, a man lay with his head in a woman's lap while she gently ran her fingers through his hair. He reveled in the heavenly treatment he received from this beautiful woman, who never complained or demanded too much. She only sought to please him, unlike his nagging and complaining wife."You are the best thing that's ever happened to me," Tony said with his eyes closed. His mistress, Tina, was the only woman who made him feel carefree."I only want the best for you, and I would do anything to keep it that way," Tina replied with a smile."That's what makes me love you even more," Tony said, his heart filled with affection.Tina smiled back at Tony without saying a word. He had always admired her calmness and poise. She rarely got angry and always looked at the bigger picture, unlike his wife at home, whose sole purpose seemed to be making his already stressful days even more burdensome.His thoughts were interrupted by a ringing phone. He glanced at the unknown
