“There's the loser!” Valencia pointed at Harvey who had just come out of the store.
Harvey came out holding his cell phone to his ear. He walked slowly and calmly. Being so focused, he didn't really care about the trivial things around him. He finally stops when Whitley and Valencia stand in front of Harvey with their arrogance. The two women look down on Harvey and fold their arms across their chest. Harvey hangs up the phone. Whitley clucked. “What cheap tricks do you use to fool the people at the store? You're always up to something annoying.” Being forcibly evicted by the most elite jewelry store had certainly hurt Whitley's pride as well as Valencia's. What would the world say if everyone knew that they were expelled from here? Of course they would lose face. Therefore, they deliberately wait for Harvey outside to restore their pride and prove that Harvey can't do things as he pleases. Whitley and Valencia were going to show Harvey who was boss. Valencia raised one eyebrow. “Did you do it to get back with Whitley?” Whitley spat under her breath. She wanted to picture how humiliated she would be if what Valencia said actually happened. “I don't want to imagine it. It wouldn't happen even in a dream. Besides, I have a better man now. Andreas Brown is the perfect man for me.” Valencia smiled lightly at Harvey. “Andreas Brown. Ah... there's no way you can beat him, Harvey. You don't stand a chance.” Whitley smiled dismissively. “Huh? Even Andreas's big toe is worth more than this loser. Andreas is a really great guy. He has a big company, a prominent family, and a handsome face, too.” Whitley glanced at Harvey. “Huh, look at you, Harvey. You have nothing to be proud of. With you out of my life, I've let the most shameful thing about me go. You are nothing more than a cockroach to me, Harvey! You deserve to be crushed in a trash can!” Valencia snorted dismissively. “You didn't even contribute anything to Whitley's life. Know your place, you have no place in the heart or mind of a woman as beautiful and established as Whitley.” Whitley shook her head. “Of course there won't be. In the three years I've been married to this man, all he's done is stay at home and do useless things. He's like a parasite living in my house. I've wanted to throw this parasite out of the house for so long!” Unexpectedly, that was exactly what Whitley thought about Harvey all along. Harvey had thrown away his pride for 3 years and tried to be a different person just for Whitley. Harvey had tried to be a good person. He didn't even retaliate when he was treated as a slave by the Smith family members. Is this how Whitley responded? Treating Harvey as a parasite, when this woman probably didn't deserve anyone's pity. Whitley chuckled again when she saw the door of the jewelry store. Her heartache had not gone away when she was forced out of the store because of Harvey. “For 3 years I endured the shame of having a completely useless husband. It's not fun having a trashy husband. Just when I was free of him and wanted to indulge myself in buying jewelry, I was humiliated by you again, Harvey.” Whitley glared at Harvey. “Where do you think I got the ability to buy jewelry from, huh? I worked hard to bring the Smith family's, Demotion Company into the fold. I've made great progress over the years. It's also because of my partnership with Andreas that I have the money to buy jewelry. Think about it, Harvey, you can't even give me anything but trouble.” Harvey remained calm despite the many insults that had come out of these two people's mouths for him. There was no reason to be upset. “Don't you know who helped you achieve everything? It was me.” Whitley suddenly laughed at that. “You? What can you do? You've been lazing around at home and all you've done is cook food that doesn't taste good at all. For all you know, I've been throwing that food away! You only embarrass me when you show up at the office.” It felt like something was stabbing Harvey in the heart when he heard that. Whitley's words reminded him of the time he was humiliated in front of the Smith family. However, Harvey suppressed it and remained calm. “If your grandfather were alive, he would have slapped you.” With that little sentence, Whitley's face immediately turned red. “Stop talking about my grandfather! He caught a crazy disease in his head before he died! That’s why he asked me to marry a trash like you!” Harvey did not expect Whitley to say such things about his grandfather. This woman really had a very shallow brain. She angrily pointed at the jewelry store. “You'll see, I'll destroy this place someday! I'll level it to the ground. My man could do such a thing!” Harvey gave a small smile. “You can't do that.” Whitley glanced over with a frivolous smile. “Of course I can do it. Andreas has more wealth than you can imagine, Harvey. Getting this savage's shop destroyed is a piece of cake. Can you imagine if he destroyed you? You're even just like a pebble that was accidentally kicked by him.” Valencia burst out laughing. Whitley's analogy was absolutely hilarious to her. Harvey raised one eyebrow. It was very amused to hear Whitley glorify the man. “Don't you know what happened to Andreas Brown?” Whitley snorted. She cocked her head proudly. To her, a man like Harvey would be destroyed in an instant. And Whitley couldn't wait for that. Harvey calmly stepped up until they were close enough. Harvey looked at Whitley with calm eyes. “Andreas will go bankrupt and he'll go to jail.” Whitley laughed. “Look how confident you were when you told that joke. The one going to jail is you, Harvey. Your demon hands have beaten him up and you'll rot in jail for it.” Harvey gave Whitley a very cold stare. In fact, for some reason, Whitley felt that her gaze was so piercing that his chest felt tight. Slowly, Harvey turned around and walked away from the two women. Whitley was transfixed there. It was a sensation she had never felt before when she talked to Harvey. That loser had previously looked so weak and deserving of torture, but that look just now felt so powerful that it made his breathing stop for a moment. Whitley shook her head. “Damn, you're making this up!” A moment later, a black BMW suddenly pulled up beside them. Whitley and Valencia were stunned at how nice the car looked. Valencia gulped. “Whitley! Isn't that a BMW type-RK? That's the newest one! It was just released last month. The price can reach 2 million dollars. I heard that there are only two of those cars in the world.” Whitley was wide-eyed. “Really? Who's the owner?” Valencia shook her head. “I don't know. But that person must be very rich! If that person were my husband, then I would take him for a walk around the city. I'm sure everyone would envy me!” Whitley and Valencia were transfixed waiting to see who got out of the car. It turned out to be a handsome man in a white shirt covered by a black tuxedo. Of course this set Whitley and Valencia's hearts racing. However, the unexpected happened. The man approached and bowed before Harvey. “I have come to fetch you, Master Harvey. Please come in.” The man opened the back door of the car and let Harvey in. As Harvey entered the car, his eyes glanced at Whitley and Harvey could see the frown on her forehead. Her mouth was unexpected until her chin dropped. Harvey knew when Whitley made that face, she was in shock.

Marylin stared at the clock on the wall, which seemed to tick slowly in her eyes. The long hand had already passed twelve, but the guest she was waiting for had not yet arrived. Her breathing was labored. She began pacing back and forth in front of the table, her steps quick and irregular.“Oh dear...” she muttered softly, almost like a worried groan.Her index finger rose to her lips, unconsciously biting her fingernail. Her face flushed red—a mixture of nervousness and annoyance.Billy, who was watching from the sofa, sighed and stood up. “Marylin, what's wrong? You look like you've lost something.”Marylin looked at Billy in panic. Her cold hand immediately grabbed her husband's wrist. “Don't you see the time? The party started an hour ago! But Vanessa and Harvey haven't shown up yet!”Billy reflexively looked down at the watch on his wrist. The short hand had already touched the number nine. His face tensed.He took out his cell phone, his thumb quickly pressing Vanessa's contact.

When Marylin said that, rhythmic footsteps were heard from the direction of the door. An elegantly dressed woman with an open shoulder cut stepped closer with a handsome man beside her. The sparkle of jewelry around her neck reflected the light from the crystal chandelier, causing several guests to glance over.The woman smiled sweetly, but there was a hint of showiness in her every movement. She was Sonar—Vanessa's cousin who had previously sent her a text message.“Auntie, I was surprised you suddenly threw a party like this,” she said, looking Marylin up and down. “My husband and I even cleared our schedules immediately.”She turned to the man who was proudly holding her arm. “Right, honey?”The handsome man Sonar was holding only smiled slightly. He pressed his lips to the rim of a crystal glass and took a sip of champagne before speaking. His gaze was cold as he glanced at his wife.“Yes. I postponed today's meeting to come here.”His tone was calm, but it contained a subtle pres

Classical music played softly throughout the Reid family home that evening, filling the air with an air of luxury. Crystal chandeliers cast a warm glow onto the marble walls, while the aroma of wine and fine food mingled in the air.Marylin stood in the center of the main room, watching the arriving guests with a satisfied smile. The small party she had planned turned out to be more like a family gala.The guests arrived dressed in their finest—some wore handmade suits and shiny Rolex watches on their wrists, while others were busy discussing stocks and new projects. From the tone of their voices and the way they laughed, it was clear who had come to socialize and who had come to show off their wealth.Marylin stepped gracefully into the middle of the room, her dress reflecting the light like the surface of sparkling water. The diamond necklace around her neck glowed softly with her every movement, as if enjoying the party too. Her earrings dangled beautifully, emphasizing the satisfi

Vanessa closed her tired eyes. She leaned back in the makeup chair, her head slightly raised, staring at the white ceiling above her. The shadows of the studio lights reflected in her half-open eyes. A day of work had left her mind in turmoil—too much dialogue, too many cameras, and now... thoughts of her mother.Without her realizing it, a man stood at the side of the dressing table, holding a makeup brush. The man was flamboyant in appearance, with thin eyeliner and shiny lip gloss that matched his silver-dyed hair. He shook his head slowly, looking at Vanessa as if he were looking at a wayward student who had just given up on life.“Vanessa,” he said, patting her hip lightly. “You know, this is still a workplace. It's not good to have that kind of expression on your face, dear. The cameras aren't off yet, but your aura has already dimmed.”Vanessa suddenly opened her eyes, startled as if she had just awakened from a long daydream. She immediately straightened up, sitting with her u

Marylin and Billy were still frozen in place. Their eyes were glued to the table, which was now covered with gold, diamonds, and jade that reflected the morning light. The glare was almost blinding, but neither of them wanted to blink—as if afraid that it was all a dream.Marylin swallowed hard. Her voice caught in her throat. These things... were too real to be a trick, but too luxurious to be believable.The jade bracelet on the table caught her attention. Her fingers trembled as they touched its cool, smooth surface. The stone seemed to pulse softly in her hand, as if it were alive.Billy just stood stiffly beside her. His eyes darted around, staring at the pile of boxes and the light reflecting off each gem. His breathing was slow and shallow.Marylin turned, looking at her husband with a face that was turning pale between awe and horror.“Honey...” her voice was almost a whisper, as if afraid the gifts would disappear if she spoke too loudly. “Isn't this...”The sentence hung in

After dinner ended, everyone left the VVIP room. The atmosphere that had been tense was now silent. They parted ways in front of the hotel-without many words.Vanessa's parents were still grumbling, especially Marylin who was upset that she didn't get what she wanted.Meanwhile, Vanessa walked beside Harvey. She held his arm tightly, but her face looked awkward. She looked at Harvey from the side-a man whose face remained impassive, as if nothing had happened at the dinner table."Didn't I say I would take care of this myself?" Vanessa frowned. "Why did you even show up, Harvey?"Harvey relaxed his gaze slightly. His steps were firm and steady as they walked out of the hotel door. The night lights reflected off the glass, highlighting the silhouettes of the two walking side by side."I just wanted to show you my brave side," Harvey said softly without turning around.Vanessa gave a small nod. There's a slight smile at the corner of her lips-she understands what Harvey means. The male
