After everyone had agreed to the bet, Kathryn spoke up, "Hear me, Doris! Henceforth, you're no longer fit to lead Prime Group as the CEO; your house will be taken from you, and your shares in the company will be frozen. I want to see how your pauper husband will take care of you!" "What?" Doris
Now that Doris and her parents had been expelled from the Greene family mansion, they had to move into a rented apartment. Since Doris's marriage to Adrian depended on whether Adrian won the bet or not, Doris moved in with her parents into the rented apartment. John and Milda couldn't wait for Ad

"You, garbage wants to apply for a job at Brooklyn Group?" Gary sneered disdainfully."Wait a minute, are you kidding me?" Gary furrowed his brows in disbelief at Adrian making Adrian frown at him."And how is that your business if I've come to look for a job?" "Stop being an arrogant fool? Don't y
However, as Adrian strode down the corridor, a call came in on his phone. It was a call from the construction manager of Brooklyn Group. Without hesitation, Adrian picked up the call. "Hello, Mr Moore, the third annexe of Brooklyn Group has just been completed with some finishing touches already d

Adrian looked at him and nodded. "Yes, it is." Owen’s jaw dropped. He could hardly believe it! Adrian—the man he and the Greene family had belittled for years—owned this sprawling mansion. He felt his legs weaken, and he almost staggered back in disbelief. *Since when had Adrian become so wealth
Upon hearing Neil's words, the atmosphere thickened with shock. The Greene family members exchanged glances with their faces a mixture of disbelief and anger. They had never imagined that the lavish estate and properties they had been boasting about for years belonged to Adrian’s family! It was a r

Adrian took a deep breath, watching Doris’s questioning expression. She had been his wife through everything, and she deserved to know the truth. It was time. “Doris, I've waited until now to tell you who I really am because... well, I thought it wasn’t the right time. But you’ve proven, time and a
The following day marked Doris's birthday, and like previous years, she hadn’t planned any big celebration. During her mother's birthday, Adrian had taken them to a nice restaurant, and gifted Milda an expensive wristwatch, which he said a rich friend had given him. For Doris's birthday celebrat

Adrian raised an eyebrow and smirked, clearly amused. "Do you actually think you can threaten me?" Jenny didn’t flinch. Her gaze was steady as she replied, “This isn’t a threat, Adrian. It’s reality.” Adrian chuckled, folding his arms as he leaned back. He wondered how far she thought she could ta
After rescuing Doris and Milda, Adrian led them to a new mansion in Jolley City. This wasn’t just any mansion—it was grander than anything they could have imagined. The Greene family's men had burned down Adrian’s previous home, but that, in fact, was the smallest mansion he owned. The loss ba
