Today was the day of the party in the commander's family. All this time, Kaiden had not revealed her true identity to Rihanna. Although Rihanna knew that Kaiden was not the simple person they had imagined him to be, Rihanna did not know for sure about Rihanna's identity. Rihanna knew that today was the day of the party. She was nervous because she knew Kaiden would send her to the party. Meanwhile, she had never been to such a lavish party.Kaiden came to see her. Rihanna tried to hide her nervousness. "Is there something?" Rihanna asked and tried to smile at Kaiden. Kaiden knew about Rihanna's feelings. He didn't say anything that might make Rihanna even more anxious. But he immediately handed her something. "This is for you.""For me?" Rihanna repeated Kaiden's words. She accepted the square box given to her by Kaiden. It was a fairly luxurious box that was now in her hands. She had no idea what was inside the box. "What's this?" Rihanna looked at Kaiden questioningly."Those are
Lucas looked sharply at Kaiden. Of course, he was not happy with what Kaiden had said. He felt that Kaiden was a very arrogant man. Lucas gyrated his waist in front of Kaiden. "You're very arrogant. Even everyone knows that you don't belong in this place at all. Even though you proudly say you can come to this place without my help, you should know that this is not your place.""Everyone knows that you are a useless person, and so does that damn woman next to you." her grandfather looked at Rihanna.This made Rihanna feel very sad. She lowered her head. She couldn't bear to look at her grandfather. Her tears were about to spill over. But Kaiden immediately held her hand, which made Rihanna feel a little calm. Rihanna looked at Kaiden, who was holding her hand gently. The man spoke, "You don't have to listen to what they say. He's not worth listening to at all."Rihanna nodded her head. "Alright," she spoke in a low voice.Lucas naturally felt insulted by what Kaiden had said. "You're
"Kaiden, let me go. I don't belong here. I'm not among them. And no one seems to want me here." Rihanna became very emotional. Right now, everyone was looking down on her. She did not want to accuse anyone, but she knew that everyone had heard the rumours from Kyra and her grandfather. This made her heart feel very sick. Rihanna couldn't help herself. Her tears flowed, while Kaiden, who saw that, immediately wiped Rihanna's tears gently. "Your tears are too precious to cry over everyone's dirty talk," Kaiden said flatly. Rihanna knew that Kaiden was only trying to calm her down. But the hurt she received was agonising. "Everyone has looked down on me so much. And I guess there's no point in me being here." Rihanna said that with a little sob. Kaiden shook his head. He wiped away Rihanna's tears again. "Everything will be fine.""We just need to get away from here for a bit. You don't have to listen to those obscenities." Kaiden reassured her. Rihanna didn't want to be there. Sh
They all, of course, didn't think what Kaiden said was true. They all believed Kaiden was just a man who talked too much and was overconfident. And everyone also thought Kaiden was foolish for taking the wrong side. "You're overconfident by taking the wrong side. You're foolish. But I know that lowly soldiers like you often make mistakes." The woman returned her harsh words to Kaiden. Kaiden didn't care what the woman said. He looked at Rihanna, who was still overwhelmed with grief. He grabbed Rihanna's hand, but at that moment, Rihanna immediately let go of Kaiden's hand gently, and she wiped her tears. Actually, Rihanna didn't want everyone to give Kaiden a bad look. Right now, she also feels very guilty. Not long after that, the man who had organised the party appeared. He was wearing a suit that made his body look perfectly beautiful. The man also looked so dashing that all eyes immediately fell on him. The man's name was Halton. He was very famous, and everyone was pleased t
Hearing what Halton said naturally made everyone round their eyes. Right now, it wasn't just Lucas who felt surprised by that, but almost everyone in the room. Everyone knew that Lucas was a very honourable man. And everyone knew that Kaiden was just a lowly man and a common soldier."What's going on? Why would Mr Halton say such a thing? How can Mr Halton say that Kaiden is his honoured guest?" The man wearing the black suit began to wonder. "I don't know, I feel baffled too. How could Mr Halton say that Kaiden was the honoured guest, not Mr Lucas?" The other man spoke up. "Does Mr. Halton not know at all that Kaiden is a common soldier while Mr. Lucas is a person of high standing? So why would Mr Halton say such a thing?" Everyone began to feel confused by Mr. Halton's actions. They felt very awkward. "I am very sure that Mr. Lucas has done absolutely nothing wrong. It was proven when Mr Lucas wanted to apologise for what he didn't do. He even apologised on behalf of Kaiden. So
After the party, Rihanna and Kaiden soon left Halton's place. They quickly got into their car. Rihanna didn't ask Kaiden anything. She still didn't understand a lot of what had happened that day. Not only did Kaiden help her, but she felt that he had such great power that he could fight her grandfather. Rihanna daydreamed for some time until she didn't quite realise that their car had stopped by now. "We're here. Let's get off," Kaiden spoke, startling Rihanna from her reverie. She stared ahead, thinking Kaiden was taking her home, but not. Instead, they were in front of a large hospital. Rihanna furrowed her brow. "Kaiden, why are we here?" Rihanna wondered. She felt baffled. "Are you sick?" Rihanna was still looking at Kaiden seriously. Kaiden shook her head. "No, I'm not. We came to see your daughter." "What do you mean, Felicia?" Rihanna asked with a look of confusion. She immediately shook her head. "Kaiden, you're wrong. Felicia is not in this hospital. She's in another h
By now, Kyra and Lucas had returned to their home. They came in a mess of emotions. Anger was visible on each of their faces Kyra immediately slammed down the white bag hanging on her left arm. Her breathing quickened. She was ruffling her waist and looking unpleasantly at her grandfather's face. "What exactly has happened? Why did they kick us out? Shouldn't we be the guests of honor there and not that damn Kaiden?" Kyra spoke in a loud voice. Lucas didn't understand either. In fact, he clearly remembered Halton looking at Kaiden with respect. Lucas showed his hardened face. His teeth were also grinding together. He remembered well how people had looked at him with cold eyes after he was expelled from the place. Some of the guards there looked down on him. "I don't know what happened either. But we were treated with disrespect there. And I will never forget this incident." Lucas said that angrily. His face hardened even more with his hands clenched tightly into fists. Suddenly,
Rihanna looked around her. She didn't know why Kaiden had brought her to such a luxurious jewelry store. Even though she came from a rich family, this was her first time in such a place. In the past, her grandfather and Kyra had often said that Rihanna did not belong in such luxurious places. And those words still rang clearly in her ears. Until she always felt uncomfortable when she was in a place like that. Rihanna looked up at Kaiden. Since earlier, she had been holding herself back. But in the end, she couldn't stand it anymore, so she asked, "Why are we here? Are you going to meet someone?" Rihanna confirmed it. Rihanna felt even more uncomfortable because she felt that some people were looking at her. She knew it was probably her feelings, but it made her uncomfortable and uneasy. And all this time, she rarely appeared in public places like this. Until she got used to it, it was difficult for her to do. Meanwhile, Kaiden nodded his head. "Yes, it might be like that," Kaiden
