When the car pulled up, everyone turned their attention to it, eager to see the person inside such a luxurious vehicle. Then, almost like he was an actor filming, Richard slowly opened the door and came out, a hard look on his face. When Florence saw him, she smiled happily. Partly because she was thrilled that her problems would be solved but also because she believed that she had found the perfect suitor for her daughter. "Oh my goodness, who is that?" Someome asked, she wasn't talking to anyone in particular though. "Wow, just look at that face. I would give anything to have someone so perfect in my family." Another woman added. "Talk about perfect son -in -law. Just look at that car, it must be crazy expensive."The people kept admiring Richard, and he just stood there, enjoying the compliments they were showering on him. Florence liked to show that she was associated with big personalities, so as she noticed that people were admiring him, she smiled and waved at him. "Oh R

"Watch my back? What the hell is that supposed to mean dork?! Are you threatening me?"When Dominic said that, his wife turned to look at him and the expression on his face was none like she had ever seen before. He had this confidence, this boldness on his face. Almost like he was the one who made David go bankrupt, and he could do the same thing to George if he wanted to. Of course that was impossible, single handedly making another person and their entire family completely go bankrupt was a feat that was only possible for someone with great power and a deep connection with the government. Even her family combined still wouldn't be able to do half of what happened to David and his family. "I have no reason to threaten you George, I'm just saying. You never know what might happen." He said it so nonchalantly that it almost didn't sound like a threat. "What is your problem, you poor loser? How does David's misfortune concern me? Am I the one who took all his money? Why should anyth

Dominic would very much prefer to be on his way but Aliya insisted that he got tested again. Other than the regular pain he was feeling, Dominic felt very fine. He felt that there was no need to keep him in the hospital for even a second. But he knew the doctor would have other opinions. "If you ask me, I'd say it would be best if you stayed here for a week or at least three days to rest more, but Aliya here tells me that your mind has already been made up." The doctor said as after he examined Dominic. He knew it!"Is it really that bad?" "Well your wounds will heal… but only if you take it easy. I know you must be busy but you still need time to recover. So I would advise you to take some time off work if you can.""Okay, I will." It was his company after all. If he wanted, he could decide not to show up for a whole month and there was no one that would dare question his order. "Good." The doctor nodded. "And don't forget, today's rest is very crucial, so try to finish up your b

"Ciara, if you know that I am still your grandmother, and that your loyalty still stands with this family… I order you to divorce this loser once and for all and get married to Richard.""You want me to what?" Ciara asked, suddenly frowning at her grandmother. "I believe I didn't stutter. Leave Dominic and marry Richard. He is obviously more capable at taking care of you than your loser husband is. And I am sick and tired of having him in my family. Besides, you said you only married him to respect the wish of your grandfather but he is dead and gone now, so you are free to live our life in a better way.""He's dead and gone? How can you say such a thing? I can't believe you gram. He was my grandfather, your husband. Shouldn't you be the one most concerned about fulfilling his last wish?""Please, let the dead rest. I would not want a situation where one child is blaming me for ruining her life or anything like that.""You and I both know that's not why you're suggesting this. I can

"Really gram? Did you just say that to me?" The look on Ciara's face was a pained one, and it hurt Dominic to see his wife like that. "Since you have made up your mind to be a nuisance to my family, I have made up mine to remove you from it.""Ciara, apologize to your grandmother right this instant!" Her mother scolded, but Ciara wasn't looking apologetic. "Ciara!""No mother, why should I apologize when I have done nothing wrong?""Oh so you don't see that thing inside you as a shameful thing? What are we supposed to tell our friends, business partners. Did you even stop for a second to think about that?""Mother, why on earth should I, or anyone else, be worried about what your friends and business partners think? And besides, what is there to not understand? I have been married for two years… don't you think it's high time we started our own family?""Shut up! You foolish girl! Start your own family? Ha! Don't make me laugh." The old woman said, a mean look on her face. "Are you g
