Novels by Ary Smith

Lyra stopped in her tracks. Her body was frozen, but she didn't immediately turn to look at her father.Flashbacks of her memories replayed in her mind.Lyra remembered that after her grandfather's death, her father had always forced everything he wanted on her.Lyra only realized when the Winter family was always trying to take advantage of her. Even regarding the $10 million, Lyra couldn't forgive him. How could her father trade her for $10 million? It truly hurt Lyra.She couldn't hold back the tears that fell, trailing down her face. But she quickly wiped them away. Her hand still held tightly to Ludwig's.She looked up slightly at him. "Let's go." Her voice was trembling.Ludwig knew this was hurting her. "I promise I'll give you a better life," he assured her.The woman nodded. Lyra had no desire for a life of luxury. She knew of his humble circumstances. She had even prepared herself for it.Lyra gave her a smile before she took another step away.Hanry's body shook with anger.

Everyone was filled with shock. Charles immediately approached Robert, staring at him sharply. “Are you kidding? Have you confirmed this?” Charles emphasized his statement.Knowing that Ludwig and his friend had arrived with 20 million dollars was absolutely impossible.Robert nodded his head. His face was filled with conviction. “I'm telling the truth. All this money is real.”Hanry approached as well. “Check again. I'm sure you've made a mistake.”Robert shook his head. He sighed. “Don't you believe me, Mr. Winter? I've been a bank manager for 10 years; of course I know all this money is real. And of course I didn't make a mistake.”Hanry and Charles looked at each other. They simply couldn't believe it.Truthfully, Charles didn't really want the 10 million dollars back. He just wanted to marry Lyra. He believed that if he could marry Lyra, he could reap far greater benefits than that.But he wouldn't just get 10 million dollars. Ludwig really was giving him 20 million dollars, just

A man with a black suitcase in his hand stood not far from Ludwig.All eyes were on the man who had just arrived. Hearing about 20 million dollars, everyone was filled with shock. But in a flash, no one wanted to believe it.Hanry, who was just about to reach out to Charles, pulled his hand back. He looked at the man in the black suit. "Who are you?" His gaze shifted to Ludwig. "Is he your friend?"Ludwig ignored Hanry's words. This time, he stared coldly at James. "Didn't I only give you 10 minutes?" Ludwig emphasized.James, aware of his master's anger, could only lower his gaze.He felt a domineering pressure emanating from Ludwig. Ludwig had never wanted to make the slightest mistake."I'm sorry." His voice was soft.Everyone present was quite shocked to see Ludwig shouting at a man in a perfectly tailored black suit.They thought this was a ridiculous spectacle. They thought Ludwig was trying to fool them all.Hanry moved closer to James, staring at him closely, his eyes moving u

Charles' blood boiled upon hearing Ludwig's extremely rude remarks. His entire body was consumed by anger.Charles pointed at Ludwig with one hand. "You... how dare you say that!" His voice was filled with emphasis."He's such a fool! Doesn't he know who the White family is? He just insulted Master Charles.""I think he's really just trying to find trouble."Some people started talking again. Meanwhile, Ludwig remained standing and staring coldly. There wasn't a hint of fear in his body. With just a light touch, Ludwig could strike Charles down instantly.He was an extraordinary war general; even the mere mention of his name would make anyone tremble with fear. His strength could defeat even thousands of elephants.However, Charles stared at Ludwig disdainfully. He rolled up his shirt sleeves even higher. "I absolutely won't forgive you. Even if you kneel down and beg for forgiveness, I won't let you off easy," Charles threatened.Ludwig didn't say a word. Only his sharp gaze emphasiz

Everyone looked at Ludwig in disbelief. Even Harry who was there immediately laughed loudly.Ludwig's words made absolutely no sense. How could someone who had fallen into poverty and was just an ordinary soldier afford 10 million dollars. In fact, everyone heard that if Ludwig shouted loudly it would cost him twice as much. That is unreasonable.“Have you lost your mind?” Harry couldn't help himself. Even the Winter family didn't have that much money. So how could Ludwig say it so confidently?Meanwhile, Ludwig only showed a flat facial expression. No one knew that Ludwig's wealth could not even be imagined by them.They only knew that Harold's family's house had burned down, and thought that Harold's family had fallen into poverty. But no one knew that the wealth owned by the Harold family was much greater than they thought. Even the wealth obtained by Ludwig was extraordinary.However, Ludwig didn't want to explain it to everyone there.The purpose of his visit was simply to fulfil

Seeing this, Charles couldn't contain himself. His jaw clenched and his teeth ground together. "This can't happen!" he shouted loudly, glaring at Lyra. "Lyra, you must marry me."This was an insult to Charles. How could Lyra openly refuse to marry him and even consider marrying a man as impoverished as Ludwig?Lyra glared at Charles. She shook her head firmly. "Didn't I tell you I don't want to marry you?" Lyra bravely stood beside Ludwig. "I've waited five years to fulfill my promise to my grandfather.""I will only marry Ludwig Harold." Lyra emphasized her decision. Nothing could change her decision.Charles was filled with anger. In his heart, he swore he would avenge Lyra's humiliation if she became his wife. He would never forget this insult. Choosing a poorer man would certainly hurt his pride.Charles's gaze immediately fell on Hanry. He was Charles's only hope of remaining married to Lyra.Even though Lyra had deeply hurt him, he couldn't deny that she was a beautiful and perf
