The consensus amongst the public was that with her current fame, Celia Rodriguez was destined to be a superstar who would make waves across not just the country but the world.

She had everything that was needed to do so and that was why people were bending over backwards to have a relationship with her.

The women were jealous and the men were fighting just for a chance to be with her.

Meanwhile, Celia didn't pay much attention to the commotion that her presence had caused as she was used to it by now.

Why wouldn't they adore her?... She was Celia Rodriguez, the next big thing in the entertainment industry.

She felt that whatever she wanted, she could get, and tonight, the highlight of today's event, which was the plot of land that Lucas had promised her, would surely come into her possession.

Just then, Lucas got down from the car as well, immediately drawing attention as the attendees began to murmur among themselves.

“Isn't that Lucas Vazquez?”

“That's him for sure. What is he doin

    Celia glanced towards the person to find that it was Victoria Smith causing her to wonder who Victoria was referring to as her benefactor.There's no way it was William, right?Meanwhile, Victoria quickly arrived next to William and placed an arm around his own, catching everyone off guard, including William.Before now, when Victoria had learned that William was being confronted by his ex-wife, she thought about not getting involved, after all, it could be considered a family matter.But then, recalling how he had saved her daughter when it wasn't his place to do so and how he had saved her from Scar when it also wasn't his place to do so, caused her to feel indebted to him.Hence the reason she decided to support William and to drive the point home that fighting with William was the same as fighting with her, she decided to link arms with him, giving off the impression that he was her date for the night.

    “Blinded by ambition?” Celia snorted. “Perhaps you are the one that lacks it. Else, what sane man would decide to be a kept man while his wife dominates the world?”William offered no response, not because he didn't have one but because he saw no need to give one.He was a man who had achieved everything and only wished to rest.He had used what he had to place Celia in her current position yet she ignored that, thinking that she was dominating the entertainment industry due to her hard work.Celia sneered thinking that she had struck a nerve in William. “Cat caught your tongue?” “I do hope that you do not fall now that you have gotten so high. It would be a shame.” William calmly replied causing Celia to retort.“You don't have to worry about that because that's never going to happen.”“You sound so sure.” “Because I am,” Celia said before shifting her attention to Victoria. “So you can enjoy your boy toy until you get tired of him, which you will, mind you, after which, just like

    “Of course!” James exclaimed arrogantly before turning to Victoria. “How about you accompany me for the rest of the night, young miss?... I believe we have more in common than you can imagine.”Not missing the insult he snuck into his words, William remarked. “I have been courteous to you so far, Mr. Wilson; I ask that you do the same.”“Unfortunately, I can't. You see, unlike every other person in this room, I am a man of substance who has served as the stock advisor of several companies for years. I could get you kicked out of here if I wanted with a simple snap of my hands so you'd best keep shut.”By now, their exchange had already drawn the attention of guests as they watched the showdown, enthralled by the drama unfolding.Victoria seemed amused as she inquired. “Do you know who William is?”“I do but I have no idea why he is regarded as such a big deal. A doctor is still a doctor, no matter how good he is. How much could he possibly have?”Victoria ignored him as she turned to

    At the Rodriguez family manor in Avalon City, Albion, a handsome young man rushed into the study carrying a special gift box.Across the table from William Belmont was a gorgeous lady in a black-fitting lace gown.Just looking at her took William's breath away as she exuded grace and elegance, her beauty like no other.She was the heiress of the Rodriguez family and a star actress in the entertainment industry, Celia Rodriguez, and, most importantly, William's wife.“Apologies for being late, honey.” Williams beamed as he walked over with the gift box before offering it to Celia.“Happy anniversary.” Celia glanced at the gift box coldly before proceeding to hit it aside, sending it flying into a corner. “Did I ask you to get me a gift and even if I did, you planned on giving me an unbranded gift?”“This…” William didn't even know how to react to the aggressive response as he stared at the gift box before glancing back at Celia, demanding an explanation.Snorting derisively, Celia didn

    A melancholic smile lingered at the corners of William's lips as he replied. “Indeed.” Suddenly, the door to the study opened as Celia's younger sister, Ava, walked in.“Is it done?” She asked aloud in excitement, only to pause as she noticed that William was still in the study.“Oh.” She let out a disappointed sigh.“We just finished signing,” Celia remarked causing Ava's expression to light up once again. “That's wonderful.”Then, she turned her attention to William who was uninterested in having a conversation with her.She had always been quite vocal about her distaste for him which was funny considering she claimed to be one of his biggest fans when he first started dating Celia.“Finally, the toad has been kicked out and the swan, saved from its disgusting clutches. Isn't that just wonderful?”William didn't bother responding and instead tried to leave only for Ava to block his path.“Not so fast, I'm not done talking,” Ava said with a mocking grin. “I hope you won't steal any

    William offered no response, instead glancing at the item in the gift box before letting out a tired sigh.“What?... Don't you agree?” Lucas said only to pause as he laid eyes on the ring in William's hand.As a cultivator, he'd long since created his core, which allowed him to detect faint spiritual energy, and currently, the spiritual energy the jewelry was giving off was enough to help him create a second core.Lucas didn't hesitate to try and grab it as he could immediately tell that it was a great treasure.“That's a nice bracelet.” He said. “Maybe I should take it, it would be a nice gift for Celia. In truth, it's wasted on the likes of you.” Just as he tried to take it, William grabbed his wrist. “Don't go too far.”At this point, the workers in the house had begun to gather after hearing Lucas' voice.“I don't know where you got that bracelet from but you are not leaving here with it. So unless you want to get beat up, you'd best hand it over.” Lucas warned. William ignored

    Meanwhile, William was on his way to Red Angel Hospital in a luxury Bentley when he got the call from Bella.His expression shifted ever so slightly but he chose to pick the call.“Celia…”“How dare you!”“What?”“You know even if I always saw you as a bum and a man lacking ambition, I still told myself that you were a good person, but to think that you would prove me wrong today of all days.”“Celia, I don't understand.”“Shut your mouth!... You are a disgusting man. Instead of accepting the divorce with dignity, you attacked Lucas and stole the engagement gift he bought for me.”William was left completely perplexed at the out of nowhere accusation. “What do you mean by I stole an engagement ring?”“Don't even try to deny it, the maids already told me everything. Look here, I'm only going to say this once. You'd best return that engagement gift else don't blame me for teaching you a lesson.”“Celia, what engagement gift?” William questioned in annoyance.At first, he wished to engag

    “More like you're too rough. Do you think we are in a Mafia?... What's with the constant urge to be violent?” William said with John quickly responding in a defensive tone.“Bah, some people deserve it.” Letting out a slight chuckle, William got out of the car and made his way into the hospital. Though he was once a doctor at the hospital, he had long since left his post when he got married to Celia and was only here to meet an old friend.Meanwhile, John, who was walking beside him, drew the attention of several people in the hospital as they began to murmur among themselves. To think that one of the wealthiest men in the city was walking beside William like an ordinary bodyguard.“Who is that man?”“Doesn't he look a lot like the LifeGiver?” “He does but wasn't it said that the LifeGiver left the country?... There's no way he would return out of the blue.” Just as he turned a corner, William ran into an old work colleague who had always seen him as a rival though the feeling wa

    At the welfare center

    Faced with such a charming and passionate Victoria, he found himself interested in learning more about her Meanwhile, Victoria found herself torn between her desire to know William more and her position in the Smith family.She had a feeling if she indulged further in the former, she might find herself falling for him which could cause problems in the future.However, for some reason, she felt that perhaps, it wasn't a bad idea to indulge in it… maybe just a little bit.***Roughly an hour later, they arrived at the welfare home with the director, Mr. Kingsley, personally coming out to greet them.He was an aged man in his late fifties who had founded the welfare home to take care of children after he had lost his children in a terrible accident.“Mr. Kingsley, hi, it's been a while.” Victoria greeted with Mr. Kingsley responding in kind.“It's an honor for the Smith heiress to grace us with her presence.” Just then, he noticed something causing him to glance behind Victoria only to

    Like a hero

    “Watch out!” Victoria exclaimed only for an agonized scream to be heard the next moment.She froze in her tracks, her eyes widening in disbelief as she realized that the person who screamed wasn't William but was instead the thug with the steel pipe.Clutching his stomach while staggering backward, the thug stared at William with a shocked expression on his face before he fell to the ground, never to move again.Meanwhile, his weapon, the steel pipe, was now in William's hand.Scar and his men, who were laughing, immediately went silent as their gaze alternated between their fallen comrade and William, who remained standing.“Anyone else?” William inquired in a provocative tone.Scar glared at him as he gave the order. “Take that bastard down!”His subordinates immediately rushed William, intending to make him pay for whatever he'd done to one of their own but unfortunately, they overestimated their capabilities.They didn't even get the chance to land a single successful hit as Willi

    The choice is yours

    “Ah, it seems I made a mistake, Miss Smith.” Scar said as he took a step forward.Victoria raised a brow. “What mistake?”“This invitation is not a request. You will be coming with me. But it is up to you if you will follow me the easy way or the hard way. Ultimately, the choice is yours.”“Are you trying to go against the Smith family?” Victoria questioned, attempting to use her family as a shield.Scar smirked as he replied. “I wouldn't dare.”“Then…”“But it doesn't change the fact that you will be coming with me. Now then, how would you like to come with us?... Free or bound?... Choose quickly, I have a short temper.”Victoria paused as she realized that whatever was happening was a conspiracy.The fact that Scar wasn't wary of her identity meant two things; the person backing him was either on par with her or was someone from her family.She was well aware that not everyone in her family was happy with her identity as heiress of the Smith family.Regardless, stopping her from mak

    Invitation

    “I thought you no longer worked here,” Victoria remarked as she bridged the distance, standing at arm's length from William.William nodded. “That is indeed correct.”“So do I take it that you were stalking me?” Victoria teased with William replying.“Not at all. I came to see a patient before the whole debacle with your sister.”“Ah.” Victoria realized she had misread things causing her to ask. “A family member?”“Something like that,” William replied.The person in question was, in fact, an old lady who had taken him in after he'd left the mountain where the Old Sage resided to enter the big city.She had taken care of him like a family member and now that she was close to the end of her life, William decided to visit her.In truth, he could extend her lifespan but she didn't want that, instead desiring to pass away peacefully.“I see,” Victoria muttered, though still quite skeptical over his answer because she had done some more digging into his past only to turn up with nothing.A

    However, they were also aware that he was deserving of the attention, after all, he had done something that no one else could have accomplished.William flashed a charming smile as he replied. “Always happy to help.”Then, he turned to leave only for Victoria to call out to him again.“Leaving just like that?”“Is there a reason for me to remain?” “Your reward, of course,” Victoria said, before adding. “I doubt such processes are free.”Just then, Damian and Vincent stepped forward. “Young Miss, you can pay the money into the hospital account. We'll disburse pay to each participant in the operation from there.”“I must look like a fool to you then.” Victoria coldly replied, catching the duo off guard.“Young Miss?”“The fact that I haven't reported you and your idiotic son to the police for attempted murder should already be considered a mercy, yet you want to bite off more than you can chew.”“It's nothing like that at all.” Damian tried to explain only for Victoria to raise her han
