After Damon left, Faith’s wife, Joan, said with a
displeased expression, My daughter Veronica is pure and chaste, but he’s asking for your sister's daughter, Rachael who is married and even has a child. What does he want? Why does he want to become a stepfather?" Joan sneered, "Who cares what his problem is? Since he wants to marry a widowed woman, let him. With this relationship with our family, almost all the big businessmen who have been competing for that contract will finally let it go. Who knows, we might even be able to join the ranks of the top families in Lake City." Suddenly, Joan said, "Rachael’s husband, how did he die? Do you think it's possible that..." Joan's face changed and he said, "Don't talk nonsense. Anyway, it has nothing to do with us." In the community, Thomas and his group entered a clothing store. Because his mother-in-law said that they were going to attend her grandfather's 80th birthday party tomorrow and couldn't dress too shabbily, otherwise they would embarrass her grandfather in front of the guests, which would be a big trouble. Their family's money was all spent on Emma’s medical expenses. They were already struggling to make ends meet. Rachael and her mother can’t remember the last time they bought new clothes. Amelia had good taste. She picked out several suitable clothes after looking around. But when she saw the price tag, she gave up. Each piece costs over 500 dollars. At this moment, a woman walked in. It was Adessa. "Oh, look who is here, isn’t this Peter the useless son-in-law. "What are you people doing here? Thomas had no patience for this sharp-tongued and crooked-toothed woman, and said coldly, "It's none of your business, get lost!" Adessa laughed, "Haha, tell me to get lost? Do you know where this is? This is where my aunt works... Auntie, come quickly! Watch out, there are some people here trying to steal something!" As soon as she finished saying that, "smack!" Thomas slapped Adessa in the face. Rachael and Amelia were also shocked, not expecting him to react like that. Adessa screamed, covering her face, with a fierce look, "You fool, how dare you hit me?" Thomas sneered, "Why not? How dare you call us thieves. "You..." At this moment, a woman in her forties ran out from inside, with thick foundation on her face, as white as a ghost, shouting, "What's going on? Adessa, what happened to you? Who hit you? You have the guts to hit someone in our store? This woman was Amanda, Adessa's aunt. Thomas said lightly, "Oh, so you're not the owner here, you're just a salesperson! Your niece called us thieves, I slapped her, do you have any objections?" Adessa fiercely shouted, "Did I insult you? Don't you see what brand of clothes these are? Can you people afford them?" Amanda said, "That's right, they look like a bunch of poor people. The clothes they're wearing can't even compare to one of ours! Their hands are also very dirty, they've even dirtied our clothes!" Adessa added, "And that's not all, Auntie. Do you know who he is? He's the man who sold his wife in the name of gambling. Rachael couldn't take it anymore and pulled Thomas, saying, "Let's not buy from this store, let's go to another one!" Adessa blocked them, "You want to leave just like that after hitting me? Thomas' eyes turned cold, "What do you want me to do? Hit you again?" Amanda shouted angrily, "You're still being arrogant? You came in here to steal our clothes and even hit my niece. Who do you think you are? Hope you know I can make this community unbearable for your family?" At this moment, a beautiful woman walked in from outside, "What's all the noise about? Amanda, who are you talking about?" "Oh, boss!" Amanda immediately greeted the woman respectfully and then pointed at Thomas and the others, "Boss, these people are notorious thieves who can't afford the clothes here. They touched everything and even dirtied the clothes. I suspect they came to steal clothes and were caught by my niece. She was even slapped by him." The beautiful woman's eyes turned cold, "Is this true?" Thomas sneered, "What proof do you have that we were stealing? You opened the shop for business, don’t customers have the right to touch the clothes? How am I supposed to know if they fit without trying them on? Do you want to sell or not? Adessa snorted, "Alright, alright, stop pretending. Everyone knows who you are. Thomas called over another young female salesperson in the store and pointed to the two sets that his mother-in-law had just selected, as well as two other clothes that he thought were good and fit for Rachael as well as his daughter, "Please give me these few sets, in their sizes. I want them all!" Then he turned to the female boss and said, "Miss, can we include her commission for the clothes we're buying?" The boss looked at Thomas with a sense of awe. Rachael quickly grabbed Thomas's hand and whispered, "Peter, are you crazy? Have you seen the price tags on these clothes? They're very expensive, and we can't afford them." Thomas patted her hand and said, "Don't worry, I can afford it! Rachael, you've worked hard these past few years, and I promised to give you a life of luxury. I will keep my promise, it's just a few pieces of clothing." Rachael looked at him in a daze, feeling speechless. Soon, they picked out the clothes. Both Amelia and Rachael had great figures, and the clothes looked good on them. "Sir, the total is 10,000 dollars!" The young lady said. "What? So expensive?" Rachael shouted. She thought it would be around 2000, which was already expensive. However, she didn't know that the clothes Thomas picked out were much more expensive than the ones they had originally picked out. As for Amelia, she didn't want to say anything to Thomas anymore. She just watched coldly, not believing that he could afford it. She thought he was just trying to show off in front of Adessa and had put himself in a hopeless situation. "It's okay, it's just 10,000. In the future, I will buy you clothes worth more than that!" Thomas said confidently, taking out a card. Adessa sneered and sniffed, daring to brag so much! Rachael covered her face and couldn't bear to watch. She knew very well Thomas was not having any money on that card. Just a few days ago, she had checked the balance and there was no money left... Sure enough, there's always something more humiliating than the most humiliating thing! When the card couldn't withdraw any money, that would be the real shame. She already knows how Adessa would mock them. By then, the whole community would surely know.Latest Chapter
CHAPTER 203: FALSE NOTE
The piece he played was Satie by Gymnopedie No.1!Not to mention the classmates who flattered Knight; even Andrea and Rachael's eyes lit up. Knight's piano skills were so superb. Thomas and Knight both looked surprised. Knight could play the piano, and he was pretty good at it. His mother had taught him to play since he was young, and after his parents passed away, he could only express his thoughts and feelings through playing the piano. Although he didn't know his level, a French piano master once said that Thomas's piano playing brought out the soul of humanity.However, when he looked carefully at Knight playing, he burst out laughing. The rhythm and melody were completely out of sync.Catherine immediately found an opportunity to scold him, "Peter, what are you laughing at? Is my husband not playing well?"The other classmates also looked at him withdisgust."What does he know? A high school dropout from the countryside probably can't even read sheet music, right?""It's really
CHAPTER 202: REAL MALICE
"Poof..”Someone spurted out a mouthful of laughter. Others burst out laughing. The way they looked at Thomas was like they were looking at a monkey."Peter, five million a month, do you think it's underworld currency? You just open your mouth and ask for it?""He's really the most unreliable man I've ever seen!""He's just a useless person. Rachael, why don't you divorce him? Why are you still married to him?"Waves of ridicule mercilessly pelted Thomas.Knight waved his hand to Rachael and said, "Rachael, I'm helpless. I can only say that your husband has a heart higher than the sky and a life thinner than paper! But you're Catherine’s classmate, and you’re also my friend, so if you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to me anytime." Rachael said, "No need, we really don't lack money now."But no one believed it!Knight smiled and stood up, saying, "We've eaten enough. How about I play a tune on the piano to liven things up?"There was a piano in the private room. Act
CHAPTER 201: A JOB OFFER MEANT TO HUMILIATE HIM
Thomas knew he would be attacked verbally, but he didn't expect the situation to be so intense. Of course, it was because Rachael was too beautiful today, which aroused the envy of everyone. He patiently explained that everything was just a rumor, but no one believed him. Thomas could only turn to Andrea for help. But this woman, who promised to help him yesterday, was now laughing and enjoying the show. What kind of person was she!It was a fake friendship!"Okay, okay, Catherine, just stop talking!"Knight said to his wife. He saw Rachael’s sad expression and felt pity for her. He also noticed that she was about to leave, so he quickly stopped her and said, "Come on, everyone sit down. We are all classmates. Why do we have to be like this? It's better to help each other. I think Peter also knows he was wrong. To err is human, to forgive divine."Then he quickly called the waiter to serve the dishes. During the meal, Knight occasionally glanced at Rachael and liked her more and more.
CHAPTER 200: MOCKERY
As soon as she appeared, there was a burst of astonished gasps from the male classmates in the private room."Oh my god, my...my goddess!""She's so beautiful... I'm about to burst!"What does it mean to have a captivating gaze and a seductive manner? What does it mean to be remembered for years?The woman in front of them was the true embodiment of these qualities. Rachael wore a black bodycon green gown, highlighting her perfect figure and graceful curves, with a low neck, delicate pale arms, and an incomparable beauty.Whoever said that Rachael had turned into an old hag must have been blind!As for Thomas, well, he wasn't important. Catherine’s husband couldn't help but stand up when he saw her, his mouth wide open. He compared his own wife to Rachael and found that there was no comparison. Seeing her husband's lustful expression, she couldn't help but feel angry."Oh, Rachael, you finally came!" Catherine greeted her insincerely. "We've all been so worried about you. By the way,
CHAPTER 199: AT MIDNIGHT SPOON
__At Midnight Spoon___ At this moment, a group of people had already gathered, including Rachael’s classmates. Among the crowd, a man and a woman were surrounded, they were Catherine and her husband Knight, who had been particularly active in the group recently. The couple had smiles on their faces, enjoying the compliments from their old classmates. "Catherine, it's been so many years since we graduated, yet you look younger than before. Look at your skin, it's so good! You look like you're in your twenties." "Yes, how did you manage to grow such good skin? It must be your husband's nourishment!" "To be able to find such a husband, it's really enviable!" Catherine was dressed in red and white, looking extremely luxurious. The red and jade on her body alone weighed three tons. She smiled and said, "That's why you need to have good taste when finding a husband. Unlike some people, who blindly choose and end up as a gambling addict! By the way, isn't Rachael supposed to be comi
CHAPTER 198: TOO CLOSE FOR A SICK MAN
Andrea was wearing a red silk slip dress, lying next to Rachael with her legs straight and the hem reaching the middle of her thighs. Her round, slender legs, with white, tender soles, were exposed to Thomas. For a moment, Thomas held his breath for a few seconds. These two women were both school beauties when they were at the University. They had their own unique characteristics.At this moment, they were both lying in front of Thomas.If these two women turned around and checked on Thomas, they would find that this man was not sick at all, and was even more normal than an ordinary person."Cough cough, Andrea, you really don't treat yourself as an outsider. If Rachael is my wife, it's only natural for me to give her a massage. But you...""I've been busy all day today, and l've been working like a horse for you. Is it too much to ask for a massage?" Andrea raised her foot and was about to kick Thomas. This action was nothing at first. But she was wearing a slip dress and was lying d
