The atmosphere grew tense as Cassian said nothing, leaving Ace and the guards waiting in suspense. It was only for a moment, but they felt as if they had been trapped for a long time.Cassian threw the access card at Ace, saying, "Let's check if this is real!"The guards gulped nervously as his words reminded them of their impolite behavior. If it were ten minutes ago, they would not have believed that the access card was real.But after seeing Ace on his knees, it was evident that Cassian was no ordinary person. Ace took the thrown access card without offense. He walked up to the gate and swiped the card.A moment later, the gate opened. It can only be closed and opened with the access card. Victory Hill was a community of influential rich people, so there was no way anyone could forge access to it.The guards' jaws dropped in tremor. It took them some time to respond to this shocking incident."Lord, you can enter the villa," Ace bowed as he returned the access card to Cassian.Seei
The call was switched off by Aveline, making Elara growl angrily."That woman is really rude! Even if she doesn't know your identity, she should have been polite since you are still in a relationship."Cassian agreed with Elara. But he was grateful that his condition revealed Aveline's true attitude. He could not imagine that Aveline was being nice because of his high position in the military."It's okay. I just need to return her disrespect, right?"He smiled calmly at the thought of what he would do to Ronin, Aveline, and the future people looking down on him after he became blind.The next day, Cassian was going to court alone at the appointed time. Elara was not with him because he did not want to involve her in his personal affairs.Aveline was already there with Isabella. She waited impatiently for Cassian to arrive. "He will come, right? I'm afraid he ran away because he doesn't want to divorce me," she bit her thumb nervously. The thought of Cassian running away and not sign
"I won't," Cassian replied, still with the same calmness. "Don't be stubborn while I'm still being nice. I'll beat you to death if you don't hand over the house!" Cassian laughed. "Did you just threaten to beat a soldier?" Liam's face turned red at the taunt. He knew that Cassian went to
Elara ignored the young man's hand. "No, you can't," she replied with a straight face.The young man thought Elara was just playing hard to get, so he persisted in his efforts to charm her. He glanced at Cassian, who he saw coming with Elara. It irritated him that an ordinary guy could approach her.
Caleb and Owen rejected the idea that Cassian was the one who caused the Silverstone family business to collapse. But they had not offended anyone today except Cassian and Elara. "S-Sir, can you explain what's going on?" Owen nervously asked Logan. Unfortunately, Logan had no intention of explaini
"Don't you know that the parking lot for servants is different?" Olivia continued. She pointed at Elara's old car. "Get that crappy car out of here! It's an eyesore, you know!" The people who happened to be in the parking lot agreed. Only luxury vehicles should be allowed to park. "But I'm not a s
Elara did not want to lose the momentum to insult Aveline, so she did that as soon as the announcement was over. "Didn't you say you were going to get bronze level? If I were you, I'd die because of embarrassment!" Her words annoyed Aveline and Isabella. Aveline did not want to be humiliated in fr
Elara stood up and tapped Olivia on the shoulder. "Excuse me, can you get out of my way?" she smirked. Olivia could only grit her teeth at Elara's action. She had no choice but to return to her seat, letting her cousin walk past her. As Elara walked towards the stage, people still gossiped softly about her. They examined her appearance from head to toe. "Who is that? I don't remember anyone like that in the West family." "This is the first time I've seen her. I thought Olivia would be the family representative." "If she's not the representative, why is she coming to the party? It's the same as embarrassing herself." People's whispers reached Olivia's ears. Embarrassed and upset, she lowered her head to avoid people's eyes. Aveline looked at Cassian, but he acted like she did not exist. She could not understand how she felt but was mad that the woman who came with her ex-husband seemed better than her. On the stage, Elara stood beside the representatives of the Greythorn and Avi
The guests' surprised reactions were understandable because Eamon and Isolde had never been willing to cooperate with anyone before. Their only business partner in the past was Valoric. But since that family was destroyed, they had turned down all incoming proposals.They even rejected profitable go
The community party Wilfred mentioned had taken place long ago. Its timeline was before Aveline's forced marriage to Peter. At the party, Cassian arrived with Elara and Rosalie, sparking jealousy among the guests.Who would not be upset seeing a man with a bad reputation accompanied by two beautiful
"I'm truly grateful that Elara has found such a good boyfriend. From today onward, I officially consider Cassian part of the West family!" Scott declared confidently.Although surprised, the guests soon applauded Cassian. From Allen's earlier words, they learned that Cassian's parents had passed awa
Scott rubbed his chin, wondering what else Logan would present to him. The first-tier certificate was already more than enough. There was nothing more satisfying than this, so he doubted Logan's next surprise would excite him."Is it better than this certificate?" Scott asked."Everyone knows that c
The guests stood up from their seats and gave a loud round of applause for Scott. Most had already expected Boostix's success to elevate the West family to a new level.Although Boostix was a relatively new product, it had broken the record for the highest sales. Anyone could guess that Boostix woul
The guards at the entrance only glanced at Emily briefly, ignoring her orders. If Thomas's power within the West family had remained the same, the guards would have obeyed Emily out of fear."Why are you just standing there? I am the daughter-in-law of the West family, so I have control over this pa
A black Lamborghene Dominator glided into the mansion's driveway. As the car stopped, the gullwing doors slowly opened, and the driver stepped out while adjusting his suit.One guest immediately recognized him. "Isn't that Defense Minister Virgil?""I didn't know he would be here," another guest res
"It seems like she has lost his mind," Thomas clicked his tongue in annoyance as Olivia ignored him. He turned to Nathaniel, whose face was sour. "What did we miss? We need to know so we don't embarrass ourselves before the other guests."Nathaniel did not want to discuss how impressive Cassian was
Scott stood stunned before finally breaking into a wide smile that covered his eyes. Relief washed over him. But what made him even happier was the fact that Allen had a good relationship with Cassian."I didn't know you knew Cassian. He's a humble man and doesn't like to show off. Though his behavi
