As soon as Emerald is gone, Lauren breaks down into tears. Not only has her cousin insulted her, she didn't apologize for wickedly making her work for nothing for the past seven days. How can family members be so cruel? She is still wiping her tears when Paris enters the room. She better head back home. It's not good that she looks such a mess now. As she steps out of the room, she bumps into Paris again, and this makes her laugh. "Hi, it's you again. We have to stop bumping into each other." Paris has a different look in her eyes, as if she has run down here because she was told about an emergency. "Miss, I'm sorry, but I need to confirm something from you. I promise that I won't take too much of your time." "Sure. What do you want to know?" Paris points a shaky finger at her. "Are you by any chance Stanley Adkins' fiancee?" Lauren laughs, it seems that everyone is just finding out today. "Wife, actually. My name is now Lauren Adkins." She corrects her, but Paris back sla

"What? You can't do that!" "Just you wait, Miss Hudson." Seven place the phone against his ear. "Please, don't!" It comes out as a desperate cry. Someone like Lord Snow, even though he has bought half of their companies, it's to them that he is doing a favour. A lot of people would agree to cell him even more than half of their empire without a care in the world. Being business associates with Lord Snow means that they will make exponential profits, and who doesn't want that? Plus, this will leave a dent in her name, and she is still desperately trying to woo this mystery man...."Please, you can't do that. I didn't mean any of it, I was just pulling my cousin's leg. Don't just stand there, Lauren, tell him!" She urges.Lauren sighs and looks down. "Alright, Seven, I think that you should let her go, please."Seven gets closer to her, his lips turned up with annoyance. "Seriously, Lauren? After she disrespected you in front of me? You think that Paris wouldn't tell me that she

"You think I care what your husband thinks?! I've just been told that Lord Snow just got married! That means that you fucked me over! What am I supposed to tell my family and friends? I'm supposed to get married to him in three months!" Meg sighs as she turns away with a scoff.Of course she doesn't know anything about Lord Snow. He is slick by not revealing himself openly, even to his family, and that's very embarrassing to tell a common outsider. "You think I didn't do my best for you?" Meg clicks her tongue. "Lord Snow is a very stubborn boy! He doesn't listen to his dear auntie!" "Well, you better make him fucking listen, or else I am going to burn the whole city to the ground!" Emerald screams like a crazy animal. Meg's phone rings out of nowhere, and she picks it up. It's a customized number, and she immediately knows that whoever is calling her is very important. She holds up her hand, telling Emerald to be quiet. "Hello, Auntie Meg." The voice is not of anyone she kno

44. Stanley is outside the house to receive Lauren after her first day at work. It has been a very eventful day for her, but she doesn't want to tell her husband about everything that Emerald did to her.She knows her husband, he would hate himself for not being able to protect her."Hello! If it's not the new chair lady of the Hudson-Snow collaboration!" He beams as he hugs her. "I'm so happy to be back home," she shuts her eyes. "Was work that tiring?" "No, I just missed my husband." Lauren snuggles her head against his chest, and this makes him chuckle. "Come with me, honey. I have prepared some food myself, I do not want it to get cold." He takes her bag, and both of them walk into the kitchen. Everything is prepared, and the servants have disappeared. She settles down and eats while he goes around cleaning. The way he is very domesticated, truly no one would have guessed that he is the richest man in the world. There is no meal that Stanley can't make! She takes a spo

Lauren is still snoring in the bed when the door quietly opens, and one of the servant girls tiptoes to come and wake her up. "Mrs Adkins, please I need you to wake up," the lady whispers through her teeth. Lauren lets out a loud yawn as she rolls to the other side of the bed, grumbling because she won't be left alone. She didn't sleep early last night, and Stanley has already gone to work. What's the problem? "Mrs Adkins!" The servant gives her a loud slap on her back. "Ouch!" Lauren jumps up. She is wide awake, but she now is writhing with pain. The servant lets out a whimper of fear and then she takes a few steps back. "I'm sorry, Mrs Adkins! I didn't mean to do it, but you were refusing to wake up, and it's an emergency!" "What's an emergency?" "Mrs Meg Snow is here, ma'am. And she has requested to see you!" The servant announces. Meg Snow?! It's like someone has taken a hard, flat piece of wood, and slapped Lauren across the face. She knows exactly who Mrs Meg is, so s

Lauren gives them a smile, but then she shakes her head negatively. "Do not worry about me. Let's just quickly do as they have asked, and maybe they will leave us alone." Lauren tells them. The servants look at each other, as if their Madame has become crazy. "Mistress, please let's just call your husband! Both of them have to get into trouble with Lord Snow!" "Hush, please, let's not do that!" Lauren shakes her head with caution. That's in fact the main reason why she doesn't want Lord Snow to know what is happening here today. See, the truth is that Lauren pities her cousin, Emerald, and she doesn't want her to get into too much trouble. What if Lord Snow gets angry and cancels the collaboration between Snow and the Hudson family? Then her extended family will even be kicked off the ranking of the elite families. "Get me the supplies and let me get to work immediately. Please, let's do our jobs with bright smiles on our faces. We don't want Mrs Meg to get even more angry at

Mrs Meg goes quiet at the other end. "Roman, do not lie to me right now." Roman slaps himself in the forehead, because he is sure that he has made a very huge mistake, but it's too late to turn back now. It's either he makes this outrageous promise to her, or if she stays there long enough, Stanley will come and throw her into jail for harassing his wife "My darling, have I ever lied to you before?" He pulls at his face. "Lord Snow personally spoke to me, and said that he wants to meet his only aunt." Meg chuckles pleasantly at the other end of the phone. This is the turn she has been waiting for to make a prideful boast to her friends. See, Roman and Meg were punished by God for the maltreatment of Stanley and his mother, by not giving them a child. This hurt Roman so much, but Meg, not too much. She was never going to birth a child because it's too much work. Her beautiful body would be ruined by stretch marks and bloating. She opted to use a high-class surrogate, but after

"Mrs Meg Snow is finally here!" Even though Emerald just saw her yesterday, she stands up to give this woman a long hug. Meg can't stop smiling, especially when the classical music from the live band hits her ears. "Wow, I'm so glad to be here. This is a wonderful place, and thank you for officially having me!" Grandma leads the way, showing everyone that she is the matriarch of this family. All the servants are dressed in their official uniform, and they are bowing so hard that their foreheads nearly touch their knees. "Mrs Snow, we should be the one to thank you. As soon as you made that announcement, making our Emerald Lord Snow's official pick, we were filled with great joy!" Meg sits down, patting her hair that has been set with highly expensive hairspray. "Please, Emerald is better than all those stupid girls. She is smart like me, and that's the type of wife a man from the Snow family needs!"She likes the attention that they are giving her so much that she goes ahead

The big hurdle in front of Mister Roman Snow is to tell Stanley that he promised his wife that Lord Snow will be joining them for dinner. His mind is not at peace, because he knows that his powerful nephew would not be happy about that, but he is wrong. Stanley calmly agrees to go for dinner with them. "Are– are you sure, sir?" Roman stammers. "I mean, going out in public with Meg would reveal your identity to everyone. You know that you made me swear never to reveal it." "Maybe I have chosen to show my real self to Meg and Emerald. Didn't you say that it would make her love and accept me as Lord Snow. And that she will not try to treat me like I'm a poor man?" Stanley snorts. "Sir, you know it's not that easy..." Roman pleads. "I'm going to make things easy for her, I'm not going to hide myself from her one bit, and if she believes, then I will stop my revenge plan against her." Stanley promises. Roman's ears perk with interest, and he lifts his eyes and finally looks his ne

Roman could die a thousand deaths right now. His wife is not even giving him a chance!The worst part is that she thinks that this is a sick prank, but the truth is right before her eyes. The hard part is that Roman has been sworn to secrecy. He can't yell from the mountain top about the cripple's true identity. Stanley is not fazed by their reception at all. He sits back at the table and looks around him, because he has never been to a restaurant as nice as this. Emerald sips from her glass of water and turns away. Seeing Stanley here I like a guy in her stomach. All her beautiful makeup and choicest dress will go to waste now. "My darling, if Stanley is here on the discussion of Lord Snow, maybe you should show him a little kindness," Roman tells his wife. "What do you think, Emerald? He works for Lord Snow too!" "I didn't come here to see this useless man, I came to see Lord Snow!" Emerald shouts from pain. "There are paparazzi outside to take us pictures, how are we supposed
