The Jensen family received a dinner invitation from Anthony Wright. They crossed one arm over their chests and then bowed their bodies as a form of respect for the nobleman.Anthony bowed his body in return for their respect.“Thank you so much for coming. It is an honor for me to have dinner with the Jensen family," said Anthony."This is an honor for us too, My Lord," replied William.Anthony's gaze turned to Leon, whose expression looked cold. 'So he is the heir to the Jensen family?' he said to himself.They sat at the dining table. Leon took a seat next to his father and faced Anthony.The waiter started pouring wine into each of their glasses. The atmosphere in the restaurant tonight was very quiet because Anthony had booked the entire restaurant to have dinner with the Jensen family."So, My Lord, did you come here alone?” Belinda asked.Anthony nodded. “Yes, ma'am. I only came here with my assistant and subordinates," he answered.William started to take turns asking Anthony,
Just as Leon opened his mouth to answer, Anthony's voice calling him made him walk away from there.Sabrina folded her hands across her stomach while looking at Leon with disdain. "See, he really works as a servant for that nobleman," muttered Sabrina.Sabrina remembered a moment ago, when she accidentally met Claire—the woman had just gone to court to file for divorce from Leon.Claire told Sabrina that she was very tired of having a husband like Leon. Claire said that the man was useless and had no ambition.Sabrina saw the waitress who was about to deliver wine to Leon and Anthony's table. At the table, apart from the two men, there was also Anthony's assistant.Sabrina stopped the two waitresses and said to them, “Make sure you serve wine only to that noble. The other two people are just his servants. They have no right to drink this wine, especially since this is the most expensive wine we have. Only special and distinguished guests can drink it.”The two waitresses nodded and ob
FLASH BACK.Michael looked at his cellphone screen and at the couple alternately. "No doubt, they are the young master's in-laws," he muttered surely. He put his cell phone in his pocket and moved to follow them silently.Joe and Renee stopped in front of a shop. Michael hid behind the wall while watching them.“What shop is that? I've never been inside that shop before," Michael muttered.Before entering the shop, Joe and Renee looked around, making sure no one they knew saw them there.They immediately entered the shop after making sure it was safe. Michael moved towards the shop. He stood in front of the shop and looked at the shopfront. There was no banner that said what they were selling. Michael didn't have a clue about what the shop was selling.There was only one way to find out. Michael had to enter the shop and pretend to be a buyer.Entering the shop, Michael saw many traditional medicines displayed there.“So, this is a drug store?” Michael muttered.There were only Michae
The sound of her cell phone ringing made Elena look at it, which was on the table. The person who called her was none other than her mother. Elena sighed and let the call go. She still didn't want to talk to her mother after what happened two days ago.Finding Elena not receiving the call, Renee kept trying to call her daughter until Elena accepted.Elena, who initially ignored her, now thinks that maybe there is an emergency that makes her mother keep calling her.Elena finally received the call.“Elena, are you busy?” Her stepfather's voice surprised Elena."No, I'm not busy. What's the matter, father?" Elena responded.“Your mother has a high fever. I can't take her to the hospital, so I hope you'll take her. Her body kept shivering, and her body temperature is very high.”Elena suddenly became worried about her mother. “Okay, father. I'll be right there and take my mother to the hospital.”"We're waiting for you, Elena."Call ended.Elena wore a knee-length dress with a long black
Renee continued to direct her gaze toward Michael."Somehow, I feel like I've seen that guy before, but where?” Renee muttered."Maybe I'm just hallucinating. It's not important anyway. The most important thing is that Elena has now met Earl Anthony. I'm sure after this they will definitely get closer," said Renee with a grin.Anthony held the menu book while flipping through each page of the book. He lowered the menu book, which was initially covering his view, to see Elena's face more clearly.“She's really beautiful. I don't care even if she's not a noble, but I feel like she is different," he muttered."My Lord, what would you like to order?" Elena looked up and found Anthony watching her.Anthony was surprised and immediately responded spontaneously. “I want to eat these oysters and lobsters. This looks really delicious.”The waiter took Anthony's order. His gaze turned to Elena."I ordered what Earl ordered," said Elena."I told you, Elena, call me Anthony. You don't need to cal
Elena was taken home by Barbara. She rushed into her house and saw Leon already there.Elena smiled. She was happy to see her husband. She ran towards Leon, but the man suddenly got up from his seat and moved away from Elena.“Leon, are you okay?” Elena asked when she saw Leon's strange attitude toward her.Leon did not respond to Elena's words. He poured the water into his glass. Just as he was about to drink it, Elena moved closer to him, and she held Leon's hand.“Leon, what happened? Why do you keep silent?" Elena asked with a confused look. She felt she had done nothing wrong. In fact, this was the first time Elena had seen Leon silence her like that.Without saying a word, Leon moved Elena's hand that was holding him, and then he took a sip of the water from his glass.The man seemed indifferent to Elena's presence.“Leon, I'm talking to you!” Elena snatched the glass from Leon's hand and looked at the man with teary eyes.“Why are you suddenly giving me silent treatment like th
Elena walked aimlessly, hoping to find Leon's whereabouts, even though she still didn't know where he was.Elena's steps became slower. Her head felt heavy, and her vision was a little blurry. Elena stopped in her tracks and sat on a bench on the side of the road."Why does my head feel so heavy?" Elena complained while holding her head. Suddenly, a black Porsche stopped in front of her.Elena could see the car clearly; she was sure it was the car that Leon usually drove, which belonged to Mr. Altafini.“Leon? I know you will definitely come to pick me up," said Elena as she got up from her seat.But when she saw a man getting out of the car, Elena's smile suddenly faded.“Elena.”“Earl Anthony?” Elena sighed in annoyance. That was not the man Elena wanted to meet right now. She just wanted to meet Leon and solve the problem.Elena was about to leave there, but Anthony immediately grabbed her wrist."Elena, finally we meet again," said the man with a smile.Elena roughly slapped Antho
Emma—Claire's assistant, who had just come out of the doctor's office, approached Claire and was curious about what her mistress saw.“Miss, what do you see?” Emma asked.“Look at that, Elena, Leon's wife. She's with another man," said Claire with her gaze directed at Elena.Emma looked where Claire was staring, and she gasped. Her jaw dropped.“Miss, don't you know who that man is?” Emma asked.Claire shook her head. "No. Who is he anyway?”“He is Earl Anthony Wright, an English nobleman. The news is that he is on holiday in New Zealand."“Wow.” Claire chuckled in amazement. "Then why is he with that woman?" she protested.Emma shrugged her shoulders. "I don't know; maybe Elena knows him.""Where will they go?""If they are together, what about Leon?" Emma's thoughts immediately turned to Claire's ex-husband.“But it's impossible for a country girl like her to get close to a noble. This is impossible, Emma!” Claire protested.Anthony and Elena were seen leaving the hospital. Seeing E
