At this moment, she felt that all the grievances she had endured over the past three years were worth it!

No matter how Allen had pulled this off, at least now, she was incredibly happy. And tonight, she was the happiest woman in all of Pras City!

Through the hazy frosted crystal glass, the entire city witnessed this extraordinarily grand wedding.

While countless people were filled with envy, they also wondered in their hearts: Who exactly were the couple getting married in Sky City?

Moreover, the two were so mysterious—their wedding had only the two of them in attendance. There weren’t even any friends, family, or even a wedding officiant!

On the crystal stage, Allen took Mia’s hand and pulled out a jade necklace he had prepared long ago.

Mia, this is your wedding anniversary gift. I hope you’ll like it!

Mia looked at the crystal-clear jade necklace and exclaimed, “Is this... the treasure of the Aria Jewelry Store?”

“Allen, where did you get this?” she asked, her heart pounding with shock. Could it be... that Allen is the top-tier tycoon from the videos?

Otherwise, how could he have this jade necklace?

But that doesn’t make sense! 

Mia knew Allen too well—how could he possibly be a billionaire?

He didn’t seem like a wealthy person at all!

Sensing Mia’s astonishment, Allen felt a sudden urge to reveal his true identity to her.

Tell her that he is a member of the Smith family in Neon City.

However, the next moment, he suddenly thought of a very serious matter.

He didn’t know the current situation of the Smith family!

From what he remembered, he had met his uncles when he was a child.

That is to say, the older generation of the entire Smith family was not limited to his father alone.

Since there were multiple siblings, his uncles were likely to have children as well.

These people would surely regard him as a thorn in their side.

If he rashly revealed his identity before figuring out everything and having enough ability to protect himself and Mia, it might bring about fatal disaster for Mia!

The methods of wealthy families fighting for inheritance were extremely cruel, and he really didn’t want his beloved wife to take risks because of him.

With this in mind, he deliberately lied.

"This necklace looks identical to the treasure of the Aria Jewelry Store, but it’s a replica I had made by a craftsman. Although I used good-quality jade materials, it’s still far inferior to the one in Cuige Xuan. It only cost a few tens of thousands of dollars in total."

Then, Allen asked Mia nervously, "Mia, you won’t dislike it, will you?"

Mia breathed a sigh of relief. This explanation made much more sense.

She quickly smiled and said, "You fool, how could I dislike it! I’m more than touched by everything you’ve done for me!"

Allen also relaxed and quickly put the jade necklace on Mia with his own hands.

Looking at her sincerely, he said emotionally, "Mia, you’ve suffered a lot of grievances in the three years since you married me.

But from today on, I promise you that no one will ever dare to bully you again!"

Mia nodded emotionally, and at this moment, she realized that her husband was finally going to hold his head high!

After the wedding, Allen took Mia and quietly left through the exclusive elevator of Sky City. The countless onlookers outside all felt a sense of loss. 

The main characters are leaving just like that?

They came here mysteriously to show off their love to the world, and now they’re gone? 

For a time, the entire city was discussing this unprecedented grand wedding. However, no one knew the true identities of the bride and groom.

Allen drove the BMW 520 (modified from a BMW 760) and took his wife Mia home.

On the way, Mia was still immersed in immense happiness. She couldn't help asking Allen, "How did you book Sky City?

I heard it’s never been available for private events before."

Allen smiled and said, "To be honest, a senior executive at the Ritz-Carlton is an old friend from my orphanage days.

We used to share hard times together—even if there was only one steamed bun, I’d split it with him.

So when I asked for his help this time, he was more than willing."

Mia nodded gently. "So that’s how it is. Why haven’t you mentioned this before?"

Allen replied, "There are too many friends from the orphanage; I couldn’t finish talking about them in three days and nights. I thought you might not be interested, so I never brought it up."

Mia said seriously, "You’re my husband. Of course I’m interested in your past."

Allen smiled and said, "Then I’ll tell you more about it in the future!"

"Okay!"

When they got home, Allen parked the car downstairs.

Just as they got out of the car, they happened to meet Mia’s parents walking back.

Her mother immediately saw them and exclaimed, "where did this BMW come from?" Her father’s eyes also lit up when he saw the car!

BMW!

Mia, did you just buy this?

Mia quickly said, "Dad, Mom, I didn't buy the car. Allen did."

"Allen?" Her father frowned. "Allen, where did you get the money for this car? Did you use Mia's money?"

Allen hurriedly replied, "No, Dad. I bought it with my own (pocket money/savings)..."

Beside them, Mia's mother pulled her father around the car, then pursed her lips and said, "He's been freeloading off us all this time.

He saved up to buy a BMW but didn't think to show us any gratitude. What an ungrateful wretch!"

Mia quickly interjected, "Mom, don't talk about Allen like that..."

Her father said enviously, "Hmph, he bought a BMW 520. Does Allen even deserve such a good car?

Wouldn't a BMW 3 Series be enough for his ego?"

Her mother coldly added, "Let me tell you, your father still doesn't have a car!

He's already half in the grave—if he doesn't enjoy life now, he might never get the chance!"

She continued, "Here's the deal: give this car to your father. Consider it a token of gratitude from both of you!"

Mia looked at Allen and tentatively asked, "Allen, what do you think?"

Allen thought to himself, I could give it to him, but this isn't a BMW 520—it's a 760! 

Honestly, his father-in-law was a spineless pushover who wasn't respected by his wife. Wasn't a 760 too good for him?

Aloud, he quickly flattered, "Oh, Dad, this is just a BMW 520—the cheapest model in the 5 Series.

If you drive this out, people will laugh at you."

His mother-in-law frowned. "What? Are you reluctant to give it to us?"

Allen waved his hands. "No, no, of course not!

I just think you shouldn't drive the cheapest model. How about this: instead of giving you this 520, I'll buy you a 530. It's a higher trim than the 520—you'll look more respectable driving it!"

His mother-in-law asked skeptically, "Do you even have money for a 530?"

Allen replied, "I only paid a down payment for this car; I still have some savings left. Don't worry—I'll go buy your car first thing tomorrow morning!"

When her parents heard that Allen would buy them a better car the next day, their faces lit up with smiles.

Little did her father know that he had just missed out on owning a top-of-the-line BMW 760.

    With that, Kendall heaved a sigh and went on. But even when your father was a young man, foreign trade carried out by domestic entrepreneurs remained largely unchanged from the Tang and Song dynasties, lacking any sophisticated expertise. Meanwhile, Europeans and Americans had mastered cross-border finance to perfection—stocks, futures, oil, gold, private equity funds, hedge funds, venture capital; these were their core trump cards back then.While Asian nations were slaving away manufacturing goods to trade overseas and scrape together profits bit by bit, Western hedge funds flooded Asia with massive hot money, wreaking havoc everywhere. They could trigger financial crises and legally seize the fruits of an Asian country’s labor accumulated over years, even decades, sending its finance, stock market and real estate market crashing down all at once.Back then, the Field Family set their sights on exploiting major domestic clans.

    As the chief steward of the Smith Family, Kendall was an influential figure in Neon City. Save for the handful of top-tier clans, the patriarchs of all other families treated him with the utmost deference. Thanks to his standing, his teahouse thrived, drawing crowds of prominent socialites who came to patronize the place.When Alan arrived at Huguang Guild Hall, Kendall had already gotten there ahead of him.He waited personally at the entrance, and his jaw dropped the moment he saw Alan accompanied by a woman wearing a face mask.Having operated deep within Neon City’s elite circles for years, Kendall possessed an extraordinary eye for detail. He recognized at a single glance that the masked woman beside Alan was none other than Juliet, the heiress of the Austin Family.Overwhelmed with delight, he exclaimed excitedly, Young Master, Miss Juliet! What a surprise to see the two of you together!Juliet let out a soft chuckle. Uncle Kendall, I disguised myself this well, yet you still sa

    The rest of the clan chimed in one after another, their reasoning plain and simple: Alan had grown up in humble circumstances and was simply unworthy of the eldest young lady of the Bruce Family.Domingo wore a sneering look as he spoke. Father, even though Alan is Second Brother’s son, he’s exactly what young people nowadays call a nobody. How could such a man ever compare to a peerless beauty like Louise?Seeing every single person speaking out in opposition, the old Smith patriarch let out a cold snort and said, Do any of you know that Louise’s mother—the eldest daughter-in-law of the Bruce Family—once would have died for John? She chased after him relentlessly for years. If John had given her his consent back then, she would have become the second daughter-in-law of the Smith Family.

    That’s right, Gaston, Alan’s male cousin, cut in. I’ve crossed paths with Louise from the Bruce Family before. She’s an icy, reserved woman who rarely attends social events. Countless high-society galas at home and abroad have sent her elaborate invitations, yet she’s turned every single one down. Courting her would be next to impossible. On top of that, I already have a formal engagement. If I pursued her, the Bruces would see right through my ulterior motives.Wendell, the eldest son of Domingo—the third brother and one of Alan’s younger cousins—could not hide his eagerness as he spoke up. Grandfather, let me give it a try!Mitchell glanced at his nephew, whose features were plain and unremarkable, and shook his head. Wendell, the Bruce Family already stands stronger than us. Even Gaston, our eldest grandson, might not be deemed worthy in their eyes—what chance do you have?Domingo’s tone turned sour. Eldest brother, there’s no need to speak like that.

    Alan patted the back of her hand and smiled. That’s just how life is—one must stand firm through extreme highs and crushing lows. If a person is showered with flattery their entire life, they may never grasp the cruelty of the world or the hardships ordinary people endure. Such a person will likely suffer a devastating loss someday. Unlike me, I’ve seen all the warmth and coldness of humanity ever since I turned eight. All those experiences are an invaluable asset for the rest of my life.Juliet nodded softly, big teardrops sliding down from the corners of her eyes.Her heart ached deeply for the life Alan had led over the past decade and more. Even though he spoke of it so casually, every time she thought about his past, a lump would form in her throat.He was the young heir of the Smith Family, yet he’d been cast adrift in Plus City, suffering through the harshest hardships of society’s lowest rung.
