Aurora looked uneasy and didn’t know what to say in response to Timone and Dharia’s comments. Her eyes were fixed on the paper in her hands and the guests who were laughing at her one by one.Eventually, she could only manage a cold smile without intending to explain anything. She knew that whatever she tried to convey would not be believed.“Why are you silent? It’s true, right?” Timone continued.In front of all the guests, who were both friends and family, Dharia shook her head while looking at Aurora and said in a feigned sad tone, “Aurora, you’ve really disappointed me!”“I was kind enough to let you celebrate your birthday with me, and you came here wearing fake clothes. I considered you part of my family, but you’ve done everything to win the bet against me.”“My patience has run out! I’m not going to let you act as you please! What you’re doing is absolutely disgusting!”“Security! Quickly report her to the police!” Dharia shouted.Seeing Aurora’s confused expression only fue

Important figures who had never been seen by just anyone were gathered together here. Richard, known as ‘The Poor One,’ managed to make them all present themselves in front of such a large crowd!In an instant, Dharia’s mind went blank! Carmen stared in shock, her mouth agape at the information provided by the hotel staff. The guests also looked astonished and froze in place as if they were about to meet a king!Mario was the first to enter the ballroom with confident, purposeful strides. He was followed by the president director of LandMark Real Estate. One by one, the attendees made all the guests break out in cold sweat.“I’m terribly sorry, Ms. Aurora. Since we were waiting for Mr. Richard’s arrival, we arranged for someone to give you your gift first. I didn’t expect something like this to happen at all.”Sorry?! Hearing those two words made everyone’s jaws drop once more.The last to enter was Raylon, who still felt a bit guilty about his nephew’s actions. As soon as he walked i

She had lived with that man for three years, but in her mind, Richard was nothing more than a man who couldn’t be relied upon. All he ever did was ask her for money! He was, in her eyes, the epitome of a man with no future.“Who am I?” Richard repeated with a crooked smile.“Didn’t I tell you before? You just didn’t believe me, right? So why are you asking me the same question again now?” Richard retorted, turning the question back on Dharia.“Why? You can’t stand seeing me with money?”Of course, she couldn’t! Because she knew that man couldn’t possibly have a single penny to his name!“Richard! How many things have you actually been hiding from me?! Why did I never see this side of you when we were still married?” Dharia asked, unable to accept what was happening. She looked at Richard with a clear expression of disappointment.“They didn’t come here just because of you, right? Tell me! What’s the real reason they came?! What is it?!” the woman continued, still unwilling to believe

The voice had vanished from her life for five years. Hearing that familiar voice again made Dharia’s entire body tense up instantly. Her eyes reddened and welled up with tears, but she still didn’t have enough courage to look towards the door behind her.Meanwhile, Alfred and several other businessmen who had been escorted by Raylon had just arrived in front of their respective cars. They immediately turned towards hotel when they heard the loud screech of car brakes. In front of the entrance, a government car from the central headquarters had already stopped there.In an instant, all the important people who had come from Ligos city stared in shock with pale faces.“Look! The emblem! That’s the emblem of the central headquarters!” Alfred exclaimed, pointing at the car with a frightened expression.“That person! He’s the same person from three years ago!” cried a woman known to be from the Whitaker family.“W-why is he here? How did he come to Underwater Hotel and help Dharia?” they a

Richard turned and saw that number 6, standing not far from him, looked very anxious. “Aurora, you should go back to the villa. I still have matters to discuss with my friend,” Richard said gently while brushing Aurora’s soft hair.The woman nodded obediently.“Captain!” Number 6 called out as soon as Aurora entered the villa. “I have news, but I don’t know if I should tell you or not.”“Just say it!” Richard replied with charisma.Taking a deep breath, number 6 began, “The H78-Y10 dagger was taken by the two traitors, and they are currently missing from the base. Their whereabouts are unknown. The headquarters doesn’t dare to make any announcements because they’re afraid it will cause chaos.”“I suspect that the dagger was taken to the border by those two.”“Captain, the dagger is a symbol of yours. If it falls into enemy hands, I’m afraid the situation at the border will become chaotic.”“Captain, this time I sincerely ask you to return and lead the troops to handle this urgent iss
