"Hurry up and sign the papers, Henry. Do you want to break your promise? Don't be irresponsible!" Jacob snapped loudly at Henry, feeling that he was playing a bet with him."I won't sign the papers. The host made a mistake, I’m sure! Lily should have won this project instead of that bastard!" Henry stubbornly refused to admit his defeat."Daddy and Mommy, please give me one day to settle this matter. There must have been a misunderstanding." Henry asked for an extension and promised to let Lily belong to someone else if he couldn't prove his words this time."No way, you can't break your promise. Didn't you confidently challenge us to a bet before? You should have known the consequences. You really are an untrustworthy man!" Catherine became angry with Henry who seemed to be rambling and delaying the time.Catherine wanted to finalize Henry and Lily's divorce quickly so that she could make Albert her son-in-law. For Catherine, wealth was the only thing that could bring happiness."Hus
Henry stormed out of his in-laws' house with a face full of anger and a heart heavy with the memory of his wife, Lily, humiliating herself to save her pride. He felt like he had failed to protect her. As a husband, Henry desperately wanted to teach a lesson to the people who had caused his wife grief, but he knew that now was not the right time for vengeance. "It can't end like this. They have to pay for what they've done!" he thought to himself. Albert Brown was no random person, and the fact that he had the full support of the Wilson family put Henry at a disadvantage. He took out his cell phone from his pants pocket, wanting to call Oliver Wood to ask what had really happened. ‘There must a serious problem or misunderstanding at Emerald Group!’ said Henry in his heart. Henry should be gloating over Albert's defeat and Lily's family's victory, but what happened was the opposite. Henry and Lily had to bear the shame and humiliation. It was only then that Henry realized there were
Henry became silent, for a moment he recalled his wife who was prostrate at Albert's feet. Henry clasped his hands tightly, his heart filled with anger again."You... don't you realize that because of your mistake, my wife has to bear the shame?" Henry cursed at Tommy. He let out all the emotions he had been harboring all this time.Tommy didn't budge, he continued to hold Henry's leg tightly to ask for his forgiveness. While Jinny Baker and Freddy can only stare pityingly, but cannot help Tommy because at all."Ms. Baker, I can forgive his mistake, but you have to punish him. There is no need to fire him, because he is the hope of his family."Although he was upset, Henry still thought about Tommy and his family's lives, because he felt that he had also been in that condition.Living in poverty is the most despicable social status in the eyes of others! Let alone neighbors, even your own family will look down on you and pretend not to know you."Yes, sir. I'll give her a severe punis
Two days had passed, the party that the Emerald Group was going to hold had arrived. The invited guests began to come to East cliff Hotel which made the atmosphere in the place more crowded than usual. In fact, the East cliff Hotel had to close their operations temporarily, in order to facilitate the event.The guest who received the most attention was Albert Brown as he was the chosen candidate who would be working with the Emerald Group. Albert Brown was currently chatting with his colleagues."Congratulations on your victory, Mr. Albert. You deserve this tender.""Mr. Albert is extraordinary. No one can beat him here in Eastland City."Albert's colleagues started complimenting him or simply congratulating him on his victory. They tried to curry favor with Albert to get his attention.However, Albert did not seem to listen to the words of the people around him. Albert's eyes were only fixed on one person who was standing alone not far from him.'Oh, you dare to come? Just watch me h
The audience looked at each other, and started discussing with the guests near them, making the atmosphere in the main room uncontrollable. Everyone did not understand what had happened, but the video of Albert Brown had led them to one conclusion.At the same time, Albert Brown's face turned pale, he was banging on the microphone in front of him in the hope that it would sound so that Albert could calm all the guests in the room and give an explanation, but the microphone still did not work as before.Albert Brown was getting frustrated, he shouted loudly for someone to turn off the large projector behind him, but instead the projector stayed on and showed Albert making fun of Jinny Baker to one of the Emerald Group employees, Tommy.Albert also undermines Jinny Baker's ability to manage a business and considers her incompetent and unqualified to be the CEO of Emerald Group. Albert said that Jinny Baker could sit in her current position only because of the help from her sexy body.Al
As soon as he heard the question, Albert's face lit up with a wide smile as he believed he had found a solution to his current predicament. He intended to turn the situation in his favor. It so happened that the video he had been watching earlier had just ended, leaving the room silent except for his clear, audible voice. With newfound confidence, Albert began to articulate his thoughts, hoping to convince his audience and achieve his desired outcome."Without a doubt, I am superior to Lily Wilson in every conceivable way," Albert declared haughtily. "Only a foolish and stupid woman would give up a life of luxury to marry a useless man like Henry!" With a sneer, he pointed at Henry, who was sitting beside Lily in the audience.At that moment, the guests in the room shifted their attention towards Henry and Lily. They were now able to see firsthand the woman who had been selected as the prime candidate for Jinny Baker and the Emerald Group.As Albert continued to hurl insults at Henry,
"Come on Mr. Albert, defeat that Lily Wilson. Show us here that that woman does not deserve the Emerald Group's tender as you said.""Mr. Albert, I believe with your experience so far, you can defeat Lily Wilson easily.""Mr. Albert, what are you waiting for? Lily Wilson is just a newcomer to the business world, compared to you, she is just sand on a vast beach.""Mr. Albert, show Lily Wilson and her husband that they have chosen the wrong opponent. It's like they're teaching a fish to swim!"The guests immediately urged Albert to accept Henry's challenge to spar with Lily Wilson. Most of them were convinced that Albert could defeat the woman with ease.However, even though many people supported him, it didn't make Albert happy, instead his body broke out in even more cold sweat. In fact, his heart was racing, as if he was worried about something.On the other hand, Lily looked so calm, as if she didn't care about people underestimating her abilities. She showed so much confidence, as
Ten minutes in, the guests burst out laughing at the fact that Albert didn't know the contents of his own proposal. Every time Lily asked a question, Albert could not answer it. Albert seemed to have turned into a very stupid person.At the same time, there were a lot of people in the audience who admired Lily. Lily's ability to explain ideas was quite brilliant, making everyone think that if their company had Lily Wilson, it would definitely become a developed company."Albert, where was your arrogance earlier? Why do you look like a cold rat right now? Ha ha, I thought even a monkey has a much higher intelligence than you!"The audience turned their heads simultaneously towards the source of the voice which turned out to be Jinny Baker, who had previously left the room with other Emerald Group officials. They immediately paid their respects because it was undeniable that Jinny Baker was the brilliant CEO of a large company, Emerald Group.Everyone did not expect Jinny Baker to retur
Finally, the wedding day between Daisy Miller and Richard Forger has arrived. If it weren't for the Miller’s Family, maybe the wedding preparations couldn't have been completed in just three days. But, everything can be taken care of with money and connections. And, Miller’s Family have them all. “Daisy! Remember, take good care of your husband. I don't want him to embarrass our whole family. If he does something stupid, you have to bear everything yourself and can't involve all of us!” Sandra messaged Daisy moments before they entered the wedding hall. Daisy nodded and looked at her future husband. “Richard, did you hear that? You have to keep an attitude. This wedding was attended by my grandfather's colleagues. They're all important people and you should behave well." At that time, Richard seemed to show an uneasy attitude. Like there was something he was holding on to. As all eyes were on Richard, Richard finally had no reason not to hide it any longer. Richard took a deep breat
The teleconference with James Miller is over. Apart from deciding to hold a wedding in three days, James Miller also asked Sandra to provide a room for Richard. James Miller said, starting from that day, Richard Forger has become part of the Miller’s family even though the official marriage will only be held in three days. “Daisy! Since he's going to be your husband, you have to take care of him from now on!” Sandra ordered Daisy to take Richard to a room on the second floor of the Millers' house. Daisy nodded languidly while Richard exchanged pleasantries thanking Sandra. When the two of them left, Sandra massaged her forehead many times. “Oh… Daisy has made the Miller’s Family shame for many times because of her failures. Now she's set up with a lousy guy like Richard. Hell, I would be happier if Daisy wasn't my real granddaughter." Hearing her mother complain and grieve, Nancy came and patted Sandra on the shoulder. "Mom, calm down, we still have Bella. Bella will always elevate
Richard Forger gulped, he didn't expect that the young girl who had just let him in was now in trouble because of him. "Miss, I have a card..." Richard intended to answer Bellatrix's accusation against Daisy but Bellatrix immediately pointed her finger right at Richard's forehead. “Damn! Who gave you permission to speak to me? Shit, I'm talking to my stupid cousin!" Bellatrix then turned to point her finger at Daisy who looked down uncomfortable. “Bella, she brought an invitation card from our grandpa. Trust me… We have to welcome him or…” "I do not care! As usual, every decision you make will end in disaster. This time, I warn you again! Get rid of this bum or…” Bellatrix had not yet had time to continue her sentence when from behind, came the voice of a typical old woman's scolding, she was Sandra Miller, a woman in her seventies who is the wife of James Miller. Sandra hates commotion even though at the same time she is someone who often makes noise. “Are you guys trying to kil
At the afternoon, Richard Forger said goodbye to George Warren and assured the old man that he would pay for George's losses. Even though George Warren found it hard to believe Richard's words, he let Richard go. "Um... Before that, can I borrow a few dollars to order a taxi, Mr. George?" Before actually leaving, Richard realized that he had nothing left. He was quite ashamed of the old man but it was only George Warren, a figure in the city of Roxburgh who was willing to help Richard. “Tsk… Take it.” George Warren reluctantly gave Richard a few dollars in his pocket. “Thank you, Mister George. I'll make sure you can keep my promise, I'll pay off the losses you've suffered.” George Warren nodded wearily. Half desperate, he hoped that Richard's promise was not just a bullshit. “Three days from now! I'm sure I'll compensate for your losses. Mister George!” After saying that sentence, Richard Forger immediately ordered a taxi and asked the taxi driver to drive to the northern city o

Richard, the new Cleaning Maid, was unfortunately in the wrong place at the wrong time. When he was busy tidying the floor, Luis Jung suddenly spilled his coffee on purpose. After an expression of shock, he bellowed at Richard. "Hey, Servant! Can't you see there's a mess in here?!” Richard Forger wanted to swear, but of course Cleaning Service was not a position where he could swear at a CEO. So, Richard hurriedly walked over to the floor that Luis Jung had spilled coffee on. Obediently, Richard wiped the dirty floor. "Darling, do you wan
The misfortune of Catherine and Jacob also befell Celine Wilson and Judith. The two women are currently being sprayed with water and dragged to the police station because unexpectedly they both confessed to dozens of crimes. The dinner party at Henry's mansion truly became a memorable event because extraordinary things happened there. The journalists went home with joy in their hearts because they had a fantastic amount of news material. As the party came to an end and the guests gradually left, Henry and Lily walked into their mansion for the last time. That night would be their last night sleeping in that luxurious house because the next day, the mansion would belong to Mr. Prince, a wealthy foreigner who won the auction. Despite the fact that the next day they would both fall into poverty, both Henry and Lily couldn't hide the happiness enveloping them. The Magic Power of the Forbidden Codex is fully charged! That means Henry's action of giving away all his wealth was deemed si
Henry wrote a few sentences on the brown cowhide-covered book. His smile widened as he reread the sentences he had written."I think this is enough," he said satisfactorily."What did you write? Do you want the Forbidden Codex to eliminate them both tonight?" Lily asked, tilting her neck and glancing at the sentences just written by her husband.Henry chuckled and casually showed the sentences he had written on the Forbidden Codex.Lily frowned, there was nothing terrible written by Henry. On the contrary, Henry seemed to have written a good wish for the entire Wilson family."What’s on your head, Honey? You used your last Magic Power to make that wish, are you sure 'it' will deter them?" Lily asked seriously."Very sure, now, stay here and let's watch the show," Henry said after he put the Forbidden Codex back into his suit.Lily frowned but ultimately chose to follow her husband's advice; she stayed in place while sharpening her ears to hear the conversation between Jacob and Cather
Yes, Henry would indeed find himself in dire financial straits if he were to stand by his words from some time ago, opting to sell the mansion in Alexandria for charity and giving away his late father's entire inheritance to charitable causes.Wouldn't that be akin to suddenly plunging oneself into poverty overnight?Observing the disbelief etched on the guests' faces, Lily took it upon herself to reinforce Henry's declaration."Ladies and Gentlemen, Henry and I have grown accustomed to living without great wealth. And, to be honest, we're perfectly content with that. We've discovered that our love and loyalty flourish even more in less affluent circumstances. Even if we do aspire to regain wealth, we want it to be earned through our own efforts."Though not entirely convinced by Lily's words, the guests found themselves inclined to offer a standing ovation as a gesture of politeness. Deep down, they harbored suspicions that Henry and Lily harbored ulterior motives behind their unconv
Several minutes later, Lysa and Eric emerged from Henry's mansion with complicated expressions on their faces.It was difficult to decipher their expressions, but one thing was certain: both Lysa and Eric didn't believe that Henry would actually go through with it.At the same time, online media was buzzing about Henry James' statement on the talk show hosted by Lysa Nadjrov. The commotion reached international levels, and by now, many influential figures from around the world were planning to attend the dinner party at Henry James' mansion.'My husband has thought this through. And yes, I support his decision.'In the car, Lysa and Eric still remembered Lily's words explaining her agreement with Henry's decision.‘Not that I'm a bad wife for not being able to stop my husband's crazy actions, but, upon reflection, all of my husband's decisions have a strong reason. And, there's no reason for me not to support him.’Once again, Lysa was struck by Lily's words. She couldn't wait for the
