"Kelly, what’s wrong? You seem surprised..." Lauren asked. "Lauren, are you really taking Anderson to the party?" Kelly was still in shock. "Yes, is there a problem? Can’t I bring my husband to a party?" Lauren queried. "Of course, it’s fine. Everyone brings their loved ones. I’m just surprised; don’t you usually feel embarrassed about him and hide him away at home? Why are you suddenly going out with him today?" Kelly remarked. "I’ve changed my mind about him, don’t worry about it." Lauren said. "Wow, right. It seems this Anderson is quite talented in other aspects!" Kelly commented. "What do you mean? What other aspects?" Lauren genuinely wanted to hear her best friend’s assessment of her husband. "First off, he’s handsome and tall, and his body looks pretty decent. Then look at his deep, melancholic eyes; it feels like they're hiding something." Kelly said. Being a novelist, she had a particularly rich imagination, often imagining those around her as mysterious and significa
Everyone knew Judith had always been at odds with Lauren since university, and she only wanted to flaunt her boyfriend to provoke Lauren. In terms of wealth, Lauren's husband might not be as affluent as Judith's boyfriend, but Lauren's prestigious family background was superior. A Harris family business was stronger than a thousand nightclubs. The comparison seemed somewhat mismatched. Though the Harris family wasn’t the strongest in Lightharbor, being just a second-tier family, this backing was still more solid than anyone else present. Judith didn’t even seem to realize this. Wasn’t she aware of her own shamelessness? Judith's introduction of her boyfriend didn’t garner much reaction, leaving her displeased. After all these years, even when Lauren had fallen into such dire straits, Judith still couldn’t surpass her, which was very frustrating. So, she added: "My boyfriend also owns a lot of guns. In the future, if anyone gets bullied, you can contact me." Hearing this, many peopl
No one dared to think that a famously useless man would talk back to Dennis in such a confrontational manner! Lauren couldn't believe her seemingly weak husband dared to stand up for her. But what he said was incredibly arrogant! Dennis's face suddenly turned very dark and coldly said: "Would you like to drink this glass for your wife?" Dennis had long heard about Anderson's uselessness and saw no need to respect him. "Drink with you? You’re not worthy." Anderson coldly replied. Who was he to drink with such people? Ridiculous! Everyone was shocked and terrified, unable to believe their ears that someone like Anderson would dare say Dennis was not worthy to drink with him! It was insane! So arrogant! Lauren and Kelly's eyes widened as they looked at Anderson, wondering when this weak and useless man had become so bold. Was he drunk and delirious? "You... well done!" Dennis gritted his teeth. The atmosphere suddenly became incredibly tense, and everyone seemed to hear the beatin
"Lauren’s husband showed no respect for you at all. He doesn’t take you seriously. You should teach them a lesson, show them what manners are! Otherwise, they will never respect you!" Judith, not wanting to let Lauren and her husband off the hook, began inciting Dennis. "Of course, I’ll teach them a lesson. You don’t need to say much." Dennis said irritably. "Good. Lauren just likes to pretend to be noble. It would be better if someone ruins her, let's see if she can still act high and mighty." Judith had seen Dennis being charmed by Lauren and was burning with jealousy. "Alright, I understand." Dennis responded and began to call some of his men. Judith also stepped out, taking the opportunity to use the restroom. … In the banquet hall… "Lauren's husband was very disrespectful to Dennis. Dennis wouldn’t be calling his gang now, would he?" A former student worriedly said. "It’s possible. Someone as fierce as Dennis, being scorned like that, surely won’t stay quiet. Only God knows
"If you still have the strength, wait for my people to come, then we'll go back and teach her a lesson." Dennis said. Hearing Dennis say this, the former classmates began to sweat. It turned out Dennis had really called for backup! They were unsure whether he was doing this to deal with Anderson or to bully the woman. "Alright, we'll wait for your people to come and then give her another lesson." Judith shouted to show her strength in front of her classmates. Hearing her nasty words, the others were horrified. Judith had changed, becoming increasingly outrageous and cruel. They felt it would be best to avoid any future contact with her. A classmate, not wanting to hear any more of Judith's vile words, changed the topic and said to Lauren: "Lauren, I heard you’re planning a wedding on the 14th, right? I’ll definitely send my best wishes." "You didn’t invite us to drink when you got married three years ago, don’t forget us this time!" A former male classmate said. "Alright, thank y
Anderson frowned, a murderous intent rising within him. Why would this scar-faced man harbor grudges against Judith and Dennis, and dare to lay a hand on his wife? Outrageous!"We have nothing to do with this, why are you taking us?" Lauren said."Because you two are friends of these people. They dared to hit my woman, just taking their lives isn't enough to quench my anger, so you two must pay along with them." Edwin coldly stated.Here, only Lauren and Kelly were the most beautiful, and Edwin harbored a sick desire to capture them for his twisted games. Even though Camille was Edwin's mistress, she dared not object if he wanted to take Lauren and Kelly. Men like Edwin had countless women; she was just one of many mistresses.Edwin's men started moving towards Lauren and Kelly. Seeing the situation turning grim, the former male students immediately surrounded them to provide protection."Stop causing trouble! Or we'll fight you to the end!" Duncan, the class president, said decisivel
Both men were sent tumbling backward. Blood spurted from their mouths, spraying into the air. Their bodies slammed against the wall, then crumpled to the floor, bleeding and pale-faced. Witnessing such a horrifying scene, everyone was in shock, unable to believe their eyes. Even Edwin began to sweat.Dennis and Judith had refrained from attacking earlier due to their caution around Anderson. Dennis had intended to call his men to kill Anderson, but he hadn't anticipated such strength from him.Lauren was so shocked she thought she was hallucinating. Was this really her useless husband? Was this truly the infamous son-in-law of the Harris family, known only for his idleness?At that moment, Anderson seemed reborn, his mind filled with murderous intent. His entire being awakened as if from a long slumber, even Lauren felt he was strangely different. Though the hotel staff and management heard the loud noises and screams from the reunion room, none dared approach, assuming it was Edwin c
"Shut up, I know what to do. It's not your place to teach me. I'll play with him slowly, let him gradually feel the fear of death, and then I'll kill him after!" Edwin glared and said."Please leave my husband alone, I'll go with you!" Lauren, terrified and not wanting to see Anderson die, forced herself to agree to go with Edwin, hoping that once Anderson was safe, he would find a way to rescue her."Yes, spare him, and I will go with you!" Kelly also had to compromise to save Anderson."Haha, do you hear that, you jerk? Your wife and her beautiful friend are ready to go with me, just to save you! I'm going to have a fun night! Ha ha ha....!" Edwin laughed boisterously.A few seconds later, his expression changed, then he said: "They want to sacrifice themselves for you, but how can I let you go easily when you're still able to fight? I will still kill you, and they will still be captured.""You talk too much!" Anderson angrily said as he snatched the gun from Edwin's hand at a speed
