“Father...” Hamid’s throat was extremely dry. He had to ask the driver for water. His hands trembled as he opened the bottle cap and drank it all. Only after that could he speak again.

“Did... did he really scare you that much?”

Bonan wanted to answer, but his phone suddenly rang. The number was unknown, but it came from the north. Instantly, his face tensed, and his breath caught.

“Hello?” Bonan replied cautiously. Just one word, and his back stiffened straight. “Yes! Yes! I promise! I swear!”

Bonan’s face froze, almost expressionless.

Hamid, sitting in the front seat, did not dare to move at all. He had never seen his father so afraid. The atmosphere in the car felt frozen, a deadly chill hanging in the air.

“Father...” Hamid whispered again. The air pressed down so heavily he felt like he might explode.

But Bonan immediately raised his hand, signaling his son to be quiet. He took a deep breath and then quickly dialed a number.

The call connected.

“Hello, this is B

    “My home is in Stone S. Aman Mining belongs to my family," said Roy. As soon as Roy finished speaking, the parents in the crowd immediately exclaimed in admiration. “Aman Mining? No wonder Rommaya’s daughter married him!” “Of course. Aman Mining is a famous mining company in the northwest. They make billions every year!” “Rommaya, you are truly a lucky woman.” The praise made Rommaya’s eyes shine with joy. She waved her hand as if being modest, but her satisfied smile was hard to hide. “My daughter is the one who built the relationship. How could that be my luck?” she said, pretending to be humble. Roy enjoyed all the attention completely. “Aman Mining owns many resources in Stone S and we hold control in the northwest. If you ever need help, do not hesitate to reach out to us. Today we meet thanks to fate, and since my mother has been friends with your parents for decades, we are all friends. So please, feel free,” Roy said confidently. “That is all for my short introduction

  • 712-Roy Aman

    Everyone came to this reunion with company, whether it was a child, a son-in-law, or a daughter-in-law. Those who attended were, of course, the ones considered the pride of their families. But Yoruna’s family brought two unusual people: one who was unemployed and another who claimed not to care about money. How interesting. “They are talking about Hamilton Group. Do you know anything about that company?” the woman asked in a mocking tone. Diana looked at her calmly and nodded. “You are right. People from the lower ranks are not qualified to know about them. So, have you ever heard their name before?” The woman fell silent right away. Her face turned red, confused, unable to say a word. At first, she had wanted to mock Diana for what she said earlier. But after being cornered instead, she could only hide her shame by drinking her tea. Diana lifted her chin, a faint smile on her lips. How could she not know anything about Hamilton Group? No one in this world knew them better than

    “Let’s go in,” Rommaya quickly changed the topic. “Yoruna, all our classmates are already inside. I’m sure they will be amazed by how you look today. Everyone brought their kids. Who knows, maybe someone can arrange a match. Diana looks so beautiful…” Rommaya pulled Yoruna inside while speaking sweetly. From the outside, anyone who didn’t know better would think they were old friends. Dixon held Diana’s hand, watching her hold back a smile. He said seriously, “We need to give our best today. We have to make Mom proud. So don’t let us lose.” “Okay,” Diana replied, taking a deep breath. Deep inside, she wondered: When had Dixon ever been worried about any situation? The hotel room was so luxurious, decorated beautifully. Some tables were set for old classmates, and others for their children. Diana had never imagined she would attend a reunion like this. She chose to sit with Dixon at one of the tables. When it was time for introductions, voices sounded full of confidence. “Hello

    People spent their lives chasing fame and status, hoping to appear wealthier and more respectable, especially in front of close acquaintances. Everyone wanted to show their best side.At Yoruna’s age, wealth and status were no longer the most important measures. Instead, success was measured by whose children stood out more and who fared better, becoming a never-ending source of pride.After arriving at the hotel, Yoruna asked Diana to help her with her makeup after a short rest, insisting on looking perfect. Women could be very intimidating when competing quietly.Meanwhile, Dixon sat on the outer sofa, turned on the television, and called Witan.“Follow up personally. Find out everything about the foreign powers that have taken hold of the north, and deal with them,” Dixon said calmly. “They may have forgotten what it feels like to make me angry.”When Dixon turned, Yoruna and Diana were already ready to leave. He quickly put down his phone and stood, seemingly captivated by what he

    Yoruna still looked hesitant.“I’m sure Grandpa has never tried fruit from that region. Why didn’t Mom pick some to bring home? Dad would have loved it too,” Dixon added with a smile.“Why does Dad have to come? I will go myself!” Yoruna said as she stood up.How often does one get a chance to attend a class reunion in life? She wanted to show them all that she was far better than they thought.Yoruna was not the type to show off or compare herself. But if anyone dared to underestimate her, she would not stay silent!“Yuno,” Yoruna called to her driver while pressing a number on her phone. “Pick me up this afternoon. I want to style my hair. Also, see if your mother can come along for some shopping.”After hanging up, Yoruna turned to Dixon. “I have never liked competing or cared about what others think. If they want to underestimate me or your dad, I can accept it. But if they dare insult Diana or you, I will not stay silent!”Dixon nodded quietly, looking at his mother-in-law seriou

  • 708-His Mother-in-Law

    Yoruna did not have many proud moments in her life. But with a son-in-law like Dixon, people even greeted her on the street. All because she was Dixon’s mother-in-law! A notification appeared on Yoruna’s phone. She opened it right away, and her expression darkened when she read a comment on her earlier post. “Isn’t that just fruit from the northwest? Is that really worth bragging about? Yoruna, you are becoming easier to please.” Reading the comment, Yoruna wanted to reply immediately. But even after thinking about her response for a long time, she still could not decide how to put it. She bit her lip, and her cheerful mood instantly disappeared. “She is truly cruel,” Yoruna said sadly. “Just because her daughter married a rich man, does she have to mock me like that?” Dixon was also very wealthy, but Yoruna had no intention of competing in such a petty way. Back in college, Yoruna had been the class beauty, and they had always competed. Now, at the age of fifty, the compar
