"Let me tell you, Theophilus relies on my family for his livelihood. Soon, I'll kick him out, don't think he's still part of the Miller family and has some money. Moreover, he just offended the great Young Master of the Jones family. If you follow him, you'll end up sleeping on the streets or in the market." Ariel continued with a sneer: "Theophilus, don't dream of using the Miller name to deceive women anymore. It seems you're quite adept at deceiving people." Theophilus shook his head silently. Ariel would probably scream if she knew this was the niece of the Jones family. Given her money-hungry nature and desire to leech off the powerful, she would probably be slapping her own face now. "You!" Pandora's face turned beet red in rage. She was about to slap Ariel but instead just snorted coldly and pushed her away. "Oh my!" Ariel pretended to fall to the ground, her face full of outrage as she looked at Pandora and Theophilus, screaming and creating a scene on the ground. "This is
"Theophilus! I heard you dared to bring a woman from outside to the Miller's house? And even dared to hit your mother-in-law?" At this moment, Layla Miller strode over, furiously advancing towards Theophilus. Layla, haughty and self-important, coldly looked at Theophilus with a scornful air. "Quite the nerve! To harass people right at the old doorstep of the Miller's house. Today, not only will you be kicked out of the Miller's house, but I also want that wild woman to kneel and apologize at the door!" "Theophilus, did you hear that? Dulcie's aunt will help me vent my anger, you and your loose woman won't have an easy time!" Ariel sneered, seeing Layla as her support. Layla smirked, saying: "Of course, my dear sister-in-law, your status is different now. Once we deal with this properly, Dulcie will also be regarded as part of the prestigious Jones family. I will take more care of her future in the Jones family." "This also depends on the efforts of my second sister-in-law." Ariel
"Theophilus, you should escape through the back door, with Maynard arriving so aggressively, he must have brought people to confront you." Dulcie said worriedly. "It's okay, let's go out and see, see what tricks Maynard is up to." Theophilus said calmly, also heading towards the door. He had already arranged for Richard to organize a group of men. Twelve cars were following Maynard from the shadows; what tricks could he possibly have left? In just a moment, everyone gathered at the door of the Miller's house. "Theophilus, now call that loose woman and tell her to come here immediately to kneel and apologize, or else if I find her, it will be worse for her! Is she the one you shamelessly rented a room with right after leaving Treasure House, and I heard she even wears rose perfume?" Layla said coldly, standing arrogantly at the door of the old Miller house. "What's going on? Why haven't I seen Maynard yet?" Victor wondered, looking around but not seeing anyone nearby. Hadn't Mayna
At this time, Ariel and her husband were dumbfounded, not expecting that the vulgar woman they had scolded earlier was the eldest daughter of the Jones family. For this matter, even Layla's face had been swollen from being hit! “Young mistress Jones, I'm sorry, I mistook you for someone else earlier! Please don't mind those words, they were just nonsense." Ariel hastily apologized to Pandora. She feared that Pandora might now come after her for retribution, with even Layla's face swollen from being hit, and both the eldest and third sons having to bow their heads. What would she do if Pandora decided to trouble her family? Pandora remained silent, glancing at Theophilus. Even if she was still angry, she would give Theophilus enough face. “Theophilus, why are you standing there stunned? If you're acquainted with Miss Jones, speak up for me!” Ariel urged: "Your status is still as our son-in-law! Having no conscience like this, you won't even say a word for us?” Theophilus thought, s
"What's this situation? Judging by this, Theophilus really does have feelings for Pandora." Anselm guessed, frowning slightly: "What exactly does this young mistress Jones want with a useless man like him?" The expressions of Anselm and his wife became incredibly bizarre, finding it hard to believe that Theophilus – the useless man their family had always wanted to kick out – could become a distinguished guest of the eldest daughter of the Jones family, even being regarded as a treasure. This left them feeling extremely peculiar, unable to fathom what skills Theophilus possessed. "If Theophilus has boarded the ship of the young mistress of the Jones family, why is he still shamelessly refusing to divorce?" Anselm wondered: "Pandora said he's now the CEO of an antique company, with the backing of the Jones family. So why is he still clinging to Dulcie?" "Hmph, how can you not understand this?" Ariel snorted coldly, appearing to have everything figured out: “This kid Theophilus wants
More than twenty minutes later. Theophilus arrived at Flowers On The Prairie. Outside Theophilus's house at Flowers On The Prairie. Anselm and his wife were happily chatting with a young man downstairs. Maynard, dressed in a strikingly dark red suit, held a beautiful bouquet of blue roses. "Hello uncle and aunt, could you please ask Dulcie to come down for a chat? I was thinking of inviting her for dinner tonight." Maynard said with a smile. "These are some small gifts for both of you." With that, Maynard handed over two gift boxes to Ariel and her husband. Ariel calmly opened the boxes, her eyes lighting up with excitement. Inside each box were stacks of bright cash, at least two hundred thousand in total! Ariel marveled inwardly, not in vain was he the eldest son of the Jones family, so understanding and generous. He had already invested so much in Dulcie without even officially courting her, far better than that useless Theophilus! "Oh, Young Master Jones, you are too kin
"Are you trying to scare me? You only dare to show your face when Pandora is around. I've been looking for you everywhere these past few days and couldn't find you. Where were you hiding?" Maynard said with his eyes closed, his voice threatening: "You'd better apologize to me now. My bodyguards will be here any minute!" Although Theophilus's gaze was intimidating, he was just a nobody relying on Pandora. Why else would Theophilus have been hiding these past few days? He must have been scared. Now, he must just be putting on an act. Theophilus remained calm, walking step by step towards Maynard. "What are you going to do?" Maynard asked harshly, frantically calling the head of his bodyguard team. A "beep" sounded, and the call was answered. "My bodyguards will be here in a minute! I'm standing right here; do you dare to hit me?" Maynard said arrogantly, confident that once his bodyguards arrived, Theophilus couldn't stand a chance. Slap! Without hesitation, Theophilus landed a
Maynard had once met the three Edric brothers at a party when Clitus Connor from the Connor family had just returned from abroad. In the world of wealthy young masters throughout Elysian Echo, Maynard considered himself top-notch. However, compared to Clitus Connor, despite coming from similar backgrounds, there was a clear gap in individual capabilities and influence; he was far behind Clitus. In the past period, when Clitus had just returned from abroad, he brought with him a formidable group of overseas enforcers, swaggering around like an unchallenged dragon. He even brazenly declared that within a month, he would unify the underworld of Elysian Echo City. No one dared to challenge him, and he started off by holding a knife to the throat of the renowned Richard of Zenith Vista, as if trying to intimidate others by showing off his power. Unexpectedly, Clitus, a dragon who had seen much bloodshed overseas, with money, power, and people, and backed by the powerful Connor family, fe
