Lea remembered everything she had done to secure this job. It was a good career—this store was known for its high salary and generous bonuses.If she got fired because of this incident, it would have a huge impact on her life. And from the way Calvin spoke, she could tell his threat was dead serious.It terrified her.Lea didn’t want to lose her job or create more trouble. She quickly clasped her hands together. “P-please, sir… forgive me,” she stammered.Her body trembled, and she shook her head, eyes pleading. “Please, don’t do this. Don’t tell my manager.”She couldn’t hold back her tears. Seeing no reaction from Calvin, Lea's gaze shifted to Claire, hoping for some mercy—hoping the woman would listen to her.“Please… I don’t want to be fired.”This time, she clasped her hands together even tighter, her face full of desperation.“Miss, please forgive me.” Lea clung to hope. If she lost this job, her life would fall apart.But when she realized her pleas were ignored, a surge of fru

Lea couldn’t hold back her laughter. She had encountered all sorts of strange people in the store before, but this was the first time she had seen a poorly dressed man make such an outrageous claim. She was certain Calvin was just a big talker. Her eyes scanned Calvin up and down, scrutinizing his appearance. A smirk formed on her lips. “Are you joking about buying everything here?” she asked, her tone dripping with mockery. Several people nearby joined in the laughter, convinced they were witnessing something ridiculous. The man in front of them didn’t even have decent clothes to wear—how could he possibly afford to buy the entire store? Lea finally stopped laughing and fixed Calvin with a sharp stare. “Enough. Stop wasting my time.” She was certain he was just playing games. Even the wealthiest people in the city wouldn’t be able to buy out the entire store, so it was impossible for Calvin to do so. “You two should just leave,” Lea said firmly. Meanwhile, Claire felt uneasy.

Claire’s gaze swept across the entire house, taking in every corner. She couldn't believe this place truly belonged to the Moonstone family. Her family had always insisted that the Moonstones had been completely destroyed. She had expected Calvin to bring her to a modest home, but this… this was even more luxurious than the Jones family estate.As her eyes wandered, she suddenly winced. “Ahh, that hurts…” Claire quickly pulled her hand back.Calvin looked at her, realizing he should have been more careful. “I’ll be gentler,” he reassured her. He slowly took her hand again, carefully wrapping a small bandage around it before finishing his work.Claire watched Calvin in admiration. After five years, this was their first time meeting again. And she hadn’t expected to grow so close to him so quickly. Unfortunately, her family refused to accept it.“Thank you, Calvin,” she said softly.Calvin met her gaze and shook his head. “I should be the one thanking you.” He tidied up the medical supp

“Is this serious?” Everyone present exchanged glances. They thought this was going to be nothing more than a ridiculous spectacle.Everyone knew that the Moonstone family had disappeare years ago. It was impossible for Calvin to have a lot of money.Restoring the Moonstone family's wealth within just five years was something unthinkable—especially since Calvin had been nothing more than a low-ranking soldier.“Stop this nonsense!” Brian shouted in anger.He was convinced that this was a scam.Calvin looked toward his men. His gaze fell on Jacob’s hands. “Uncover it.”Everyone nodded in unison. They immediately removed the cloth covering the items they had brought.Calvin gave a slight nod. As instructed by his master, the man also signaled the others to reveal the contents.All at once, Calvin's soldiers lifted the covers.The guests’ eyes widened in shock as they took in the sight before them.It was astonishing. Countless dazzling jewels were displayed, their brilliance filling the

"How dare you! How dare you lay a hand on me!" Bobby's anger flared.His sharp eyes darted toward Calvin’s grip on his wrist. Just being touched by this man felt like an insult.Their gazes clashed for a brief moment. Bobby had to admit—Calvin exuded an unsettling confidence. But just because he was in the military didn’t mean Bobby would be intimidated. He was certain Calvin’s strength was nothing extraordinary. Defeating him shouldn’t be difficult."You’ll pay dearly for this." Bobby gritted his teeth, trying to yank his wrist free.But then, his eyes widened in shock. Something was wrong. Despite using all his strength, Calvin’s grip didn’t budge—not even slightly. Instead, it felt as though his hand was completely locked in place."How…? Why is he so much stronger than me?" Bobby’s mind raced as he struggled.His breathing quickened, his disbelief growing as he stared at Calvin. He had severely underestimated him. Calvin’s strength was far beyond what he had expected."You were th

Everyone stared at him in disbelief—including Brian. The man nearly laughed, convinced that Calvin had lost his mind."Do you even understand how much twenty million dollars is?" Brian raised his voice, his eyes burning with fury.The Moonstone family had fallen, their wealth crumbling along with them. He was certain that Calvin had been living in poverty all this time. There was no way he would let his beloved daughter live with someone like him.Brian's gaze swept over Calvin, scrutinizing him from head to toe. "You're just a pathetic soldier. You’ll never be able to pay that money back."Calvin remained unfazed by Brian’s words. Twenty million dollars meant nothing to him.At that moment, he looked at Claire. Despite her obvious panic, she still managed a warm smile. Calvin stepped closer, his expression serious."Will you marry me and fulfill our promise?"Her answer was all that mattered to him—nothing else was important.Without hesitation, Claire nodded. Not a single trace of d

This was surprising. Brian’s words stung a little. Calvin could have just left this place, but he remembered his father’s will—the final wish he wanted to fulfill.And as for Claire… The woman had even agreed to it.Calvin’s expression grew colder. He looked at Brian seriously, suppressing his anger before speaking. "This completely goes against the agreement made between the Jones and Moonstone families.""Just as my father upheld his end of the bargain, shouldn't you also honor your promise regarding this marriage?" Calvin reminded him. He knew that only this marriage could bring peace to his father’s soul.Brian burst into laughter at Calvin’s words, but soon, his gaze turned sharp. "Your father is already dead. You have no right to bring up that matter.""The agreement died along with your father." Brian emphasized firmly.As he looked at Calvin, he had already made up his mind—he did not want a mere ordinary man as his son-in-law.Previously, he had no objections to the arranged
