Dan Brown's words slapped Roggie's face repeatedly. He could only swallow while lamenting the bad luck that would soon come his way, treating dozens of people at the Blue Ocean Restaurant was something that was never in his life plan.

"Alright, Sir. If you don't have any objections about the bill going up. I will process this order." The waiter nodded with a smile before leaving the room.

Within fifteen minutes, several waiters entered with some appetizers in their hands.

Before eating, the men in the room thanked Henry and Mr. Brown again, as well as Anthony. If Anthony's clients had not bought the expensive house, they would not be sitting there. One by one, the people in the room seemed to express their gratitude for Henry and Dan Brown.

None of them wanted to thank Derry and Roggie, despite the fact that Derry and Roggie were footing the bill for everyone's meals. People were deliberately not being nice to Roggie and Derry because right now, the person they considered the greatest

    Henry had just come out of the Blue Ocean Restaurant when a man greeted him at the lobby in a luxury black sedan-type car."Mr. Henry. Please come in."When Henry got in and sat down, the door was closed. The man, who was none other than Jack, immediately got behind the wheel. The car left the lobby of Blue Ocean Restaurant at a moderate speed."Jack, may I know your surname or do you have another name?" Henry asked suddenly.Jack looked at Henry from the center mirror. "Yes, young master. My name is Jack Robinson.""Well, I'm not comfortable calling you Jack for some reason. Can I just call you, ‘Robin’?" asked Henry. There was an unpleasant memory that Henry had experienced with someone named Jack, so, whenever he called that Oliver Wood's men, Henry felt like remembering Jack – someone who made him annoyed for some reason."Robin? I don't mind at all, Young Master."Henry nodded once. He stared out the window, taking in this busy corner of Eastland. "We'll go to the Emerald Group f

    Ridgewood AvenueThere was a dead-end alley on Ridgewood Avenue that Lily Wilson will never forget for the rest of her life because it has a story to tell. And, that time Henry took her there, to Ridgewood Avenue, a place where one day many years ago, Lily witnessed a scene that brought tears to her eyes.Several years ago when Henry was only twenty-five years old, he saved a girl who was the daughter of a conglomerate from an accident. Because of that one encounter, the girl fell in love with Henry who she considered to be a mature man with a charming personality. From that day on, the girl continued to pursue Henry and asked him to marry her.As time passed, even though the girl found out one day that Henry was already married, she still maintained her love for him. In fact, one day after she heard that Henry had been evicted from the Wilson family home and was living in poverty in a shabby flat, she went looking for him.The two then met in the alley, on Ridgewood Avenue."Henry, m

    Some time later, Lily and Henry entered a simple restaurant. A woman in her fifties with an Asian face welcomed them."Hello, my dear children... it's been a long time since you last came here.""Hi Aunt Miho," Lily greeted Auntie Miho's friendly greeting with a sweet smile. "We've had a lot of work to take care of recently." Lily replied kindly.Aunt Miho frowned and then glanced at Henry. "Wow... does that mean, Henry got a job? I'm happy to hear that, dear."Lily and Henry shook their heads together. "Henry hasn't gotten a job yet, but he got lucky so our current life is much better than before." Lily answered honestly.For a moment, Aunt Miho took a deep breath hearing that Henry was still unemployed. However, remembering that Lily mentioned that they had gotten lucky, Aunt Miho smiled again. "Whatever it is, I'm glad to see you two with such cheerful faces like today." Aunt Miho took out a pot of green tea and two cups and placed them on the table where Henry and Lily were."Aunt

    After lunch at Aunt Miho's shop, Henry took Lily for a walk to Ridgewood Park. In the past, when their stomachs were hungry in the afternoon, they would often take a stroll in Ridgewood Park while looking at the street food sellers.Back then, when Lily's savings were low, dinner was an activity that they omitted. Skipping dinner proved easier than skipping breakfast. That's why, when the hunger struck their stomachs, Henry and Lily would sit in Ridgwood's garden, watching the people go by until they were both seized by an irresistible drowsiness. After hunger was drowned out by sleepiness, they would go home and fall asleep without bothering to reduce their meager money."Honey, I brought you here on purpose, so that I would always remember that I was once a useless husband." Henry muttered as soon as he and Lily arrived at Ridgewood Park.At that time, one of Lily's hands grabbed Henry's elbow, holding him close as she rested her head on his shoulder. Lily's eyes were closed as she

    "Are you sure she's Mrs. Hudson, Honey?" Lily was shocked after hearing Henry's whisper. In fact, someone named Mrs. Hudson was the one who contributed the most to Lily and Henry's misery when the two had just arrived at the shabby flat in Ridgewood area two years ago.Henry nodded his head. "Yes, she is Mrs. Hudson. Although her face is much worse than the last time we met, I still recognize her, Lily. If you have any doubts, just try to call her name.""Is that so?" Lily's heart raced as she made a move to call out to the old beggar. "Mrs. Hudson...? Is that you?"The old beggar jerked her head back, her hand that had been halfway into the trash can now retracted as her ears heard a familiar voice."Li... Lily Wilson..." The old beggar stammered, not expecting that she would meet Lily Wilson again on such an occasion.The old woman was indeed Mrs. Hudson, just as Henry had expected. At that very moment, Lily was seen grinding her teeth, holding back the anger that had been delayed.

    What made Lily's body weak was the news from Mrs. Hudson that she could barely believe. Mrs. Hudson said that two years ago, she was asked by Catherine Wilson to slander Lily so that Lily would be required to pay a substantial fine for the mistake she never done.In fact, it was also Catherine Wilson who created all the scenarios including the plan to hire five fake witnesses to aggravate Lily's sentence."Honey, what's wrong with you?" Henry, who had just finished giving a lesson to Lukas, rushed over to Lily and hugged her limp body.Receiving no answer from Lily, Henry turned to stare at Mrs. Hudson and asked, "What did you just say to my Lily?""Henry..." Lily muttered softly, preceding Mrs. Hudson who was just about to reply. "Please take us both to a cozy and private dining place, I want to talk more with Mrs. Hudson."Henry frowned. From the tone of her voice, he could guess that Lily was currently not harboring much anger towards Mrs. Hudson, which naturally made Henry curious

    At the same time in another place, Catherine Wilson was sitting on the sofa watching television when her cell phone beeped several times indicating that someone had sent her a message. Lazily, Catherine reached for her phone and opened the message.[Kelly: Hi, Catherine. Oh, what a jerk you are. My son told me that Lily Wilson was in a meeting at the Eemerald Group Mega Project. I missed the big news, that your daughter won that Mega Project. What do you think of me, why don't you invite me to dinner to celebrate Lily's success?]Ding!Catherine frowned again as she felt her cell phone vibrate.Ding!Ding!Ding![Rosmela: Catherine, Kelly just told me that Lily Wilson is now a successful career woman. Emerald Group! Oh, shit, are you trying to hide this good news so we don't charge you for dinner? What a cheapskate you are!][Gloria: Some time ago, I heard that the Emerald Group's Mega Project was won by a young woman named Lily Wilson. Ah, what a fool I was for not guessing that the

    When Lily later agreed to Catherine and Jacob's request, Catherine had a big grin on her face. Meanwhile, in the car, Henry was wearing a sardonic smile."Lily, today the Emerald Group disbursed a few percent of the fee for you, it seems that your father and mother have heard the news so they feel the need to look good in front of you."Hearing Henry's words, Lily nodded slowly. "You're right, Honey. I've memorized my mom and dad's attitude, they must be expecting me to give some of my income to them.""And, now that you've given them their share of the money, I'm sure they'll be even greedier and hope for a much bigger share!""Ha ha, Henry, it seems that we both understand their behavior very well, huh. Well, I'll be there tomorrow afternoon then. Do you want to come with me?"Henry seemed to think for a moment and then shook his head. "There are still some things I need to prepare. If you need my help later, just call and I'll be there right away."Lily smiled because she had alrea

    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

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.

    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.

    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

    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

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
