About two hours later, the airplane descended gracefully onto the tarmac of the Denmark airport, its engines humming softly as it taxied towards the terminal. Cordelia, her gaze filled with a mix of anticipation and nostalgia, watched as the landscape outside the window transformed from clouds to sprawling runways and bustling activity below.As the aircraft came to a stop and the seatbelt sign clicked off, Cordelia gathered her belongings and rose from her seat, joining the stream of passengers making their way towards the exit. With each step, she felt the familiar excitement of returning to her homeland after more than five years abroad.Stepping into the terminal, Cordelia's eyes swept over the bustling crowds, searching for familiar faces amid the sea of strangers. She sighed. “Been more than 5 years.” She saidWith her luggage in tow, Cordelia made her way towards the designated pick-up area, her footsteps echoing against the polished floors of the terminal. The butler, station

Meanwhile, Cordelia sat on the bed and opened her luggage, taking out her laptop and its charger, which she placed on the table. Neatly hanging her clothes in the wardrobe, she sighed and checked her phone, realizing there was no network."Oh, I have to change the SIM," she muttered to herself. "I'll ask the butler if I can get a new one.”Opening her gallery, she smiled at a picture she took with Benjamin. "Hey hubby, I'm in Denmark now. I know if you were still fine, you would have insisted on escorting me. Anyway, I'll spend just half a month or a month here and come back to take care of you completely. Who knows, you might even be fine by then?" She zoomed in on Benjamin's picture and kissed it.Just as her lips touched the screen, a knock sounded on the door. Quickly turning off her phone screen, she answered and walked towards the door to find a maid standing there, holding a tray with a bottle of drink and a glass cup.The lady bowed slightly at her and said, “Please I was aske

Outside, the grandeur of the Winslow mansion was matched by the arrival of five luxurious cars, heralding the presence of the Hansen family. In one of the cars, Raymond looked positively elated as he drove, with Shulamite, his sister, seated gracefully beside him. As the vehicles came to a stop, the security guards swiftly emerged, opening the doors in synchronized motion. Raymond, exuding confidence, stepped out first, his elegant attire drawing admiring glances from onlookers.His branded suit, designer shoes, and stylish accessories spoke of sophistication and refinement. Beside him, Shulamite emanated poise and charm, her presence adding to the aura of allure surrounding them.Raymond couldn't resist a playful remark, teasing his sister about the attention they were receiving. "You should count yourself lucky to have such a handsome brother," he quipped, a mischievous glint in his eye.“Keep quiet and don't try to flirt with anyone here. You came for Cordelia, so go for her.” She

Raymond persisted, trying to steer the conversation in a different direction. "Don't worry, anytime you have time, we can visit beautiful places in Denmark, you know, and have some kind of fun. I can't imagine how beautiful you grew up to become, a thick lady with perfect curves, hips and..."Cordelia frowned, feeling uncomfortable with Raymond's suggestive comments. "Let's not talk about that," she interjected firmly, cutting him off before he could continue.Raymond flashed a charming smile, seemingly undeterred by Cordelia's response. Before he could speak again, Marshall's voice reverberated through the grand hall, commanding everyone's attention. "Ladies and gentlemen," he began, his tone authoritative yet inviting, "I'm delighted to announce that dinner is served. Please, help yourselves to the sumptuous spread prepared for tonight's festivities, serve yourself. The food is lined up and ready for you to enjoy. Bon appétit!"

Raymond Hansen, though he intentionally orchestrated the situation, couldn't help but feel a surge of satisfaction as he witnessed the applause and praise directed towards him. His father, Jacob Hansen, beamed with pride, "My son," Jacob said with a smile, "has always shown decency and a protective instinct for those around him. Cordelia is his woman, and rest assured, when the time comes, their wedding announcement will be a joyous occasion for us all."The room erupted into another round of applause, with envy flickering among the young men. Rose had a deep frown hearing Jacob announce that Raymond and Cordelia would be married soon; she didn't even clap or behave as if she was happy. Shulamite, seated at the other side, wasn't thrilled either, as she didn't know Cordelia well. During her childhood, she hadn't been in Denmark, as she was schooling in the United States. She wanted her brother to get along with her friend Rose, not Cordelia. Shulamite shifted her gaze to where Ros
