William's thoughts
~ William's POV ~Hearing from Catherine's mother that she had been chased out of the family, immediately I felt this flow of anger rise inside me.A blind rage filled my mind, ready to be unleashed at any second.But somehow, I managed to hold myself back. I swallowed that storm of emotion, forcing my heart to calm down even though it kept pounding heavily within me.Catherine was a gentle lady, the woman I love so much. She stayed loyal, respectful, caring to me even under the pressure of her family to get rid of me and go for some rich suitors.She was the only person I got in this world.My parents... I don't even know if they are dead or alive somewhere. I don't even know how they look.And my foster mother, the woman who took me as her biological child and showered me with love.Her death left a hole in my heart that never healed.Because of me—Catherine’s family scolded her, criticized her every time they could, yet she never changed.She still remained the same good wife that
Chapter 71—Settlement went wrong
In this world where money was a necessity, wanted by the poor and not excluding the rich ones who still desired to become super-rich.The prestigious families who already had it all, enough in abundance to last them for several lifetimes of luxurious living. Yet it wasn’t a hidden fact that they continued to work hard, even pushing themselves harder for more benefits, more wealth, and more power at their command.They wanted to sit at the very top of the chain of wealth.They want to rule the world with so much influence on their names.They sought admiration and praise from the masses who wished to be like them.And these families didn’t care how they achieved it.They went as far as forming alliances with even richer families through marriage with the female members of their households. Whether these women agreed or not, they were forced to go into marriage and made to bend to their family’s will, all in the pursuit of greater power and prestige.In front of a grand building, the ma
69—Words against words
"I heard what happened," William calmly said to Mrs. Marianne. His eyes didn’t flicker toward Bridget, treating her presence as if she were no more than a shadow. "I came to see how she’s doing." Bridget’s face twitched at the way he ignored her. Rage boiled inside her. How dare this poor bastard act like she was invisible? It was a direct insult, humiliating to the core. "Leave. The person you're looking for isn't here," Mrs. Marianne replied coldly, her voice filled with irritation. "Mom, why even bother wasting your breath on him?" Bridget thundered, stepping forward and jabbing a finger in William’s direction. "Trash like him isn’t worth any of our time." Her voice trembled with anger as she pointed at him again. "You shameless man! You still have the guts to show your miserable face here? Again and again?" "Shut it," William replied, still calm, but now with a touch of coldness to his voice. "I’m here for Catherine, not you." There was no emotion in his eyes, just pure disda

68—Thomas's evil intention
In the Hidalgo’s mansion, Thomas sat in his big, expensive, and quiet room as he watched the large TV mounted on the wall. His eyes stayed fixed on the screen, and he did not blink even for a moment. An evil smile slowly spread across his face as he listened to every word. He sat very still, his mind working quickly as he stared at the screen with strong interest. On the TV, the news talked about Catherine. The report said that Catherine had been thrown out of the Kensington family. Thomas watched every detail carefully. He did not miss a single moment of the report. The headline on the screen made him nod slowly with satisfaction over what had happened to her. Thomas reached for his glass cup and took a slow sip of wine. His voice broke the silence as he spoke in a low tone. "Good one," he said with a smirk. He repeated softly, "You think chasing her out of the family will make us change our mind about your family. Well done." Every word was spoken clearly as he enjoyed the t

I could feel my heart pounding as we pulled up.Even though I tried to keep a brave face, I couldn’t conceal the tears that had been steadily building up inside me.I quickly wiped them away before anyone could notice.As soon as we got out of the car, little Ava looked up at me with her big, round, cute eyes and asked curiously, "Mommy, where are we going?"I forced a smile and said, "We are going on vacation."Even though I delivered those words as if it were a fun trip, my smile was nothing but faked. I only said it to keep the kids from worrying.When I mentioned vacation, Aiden’s face lit up with excitement, and he asked, "Where, Mommy? Where?" I replied simply, "It will be a surprise."I hoped that my answer would bring them some joy, even though I was filled with inner pain.At that moment, all I desired was cash to take care
