FAZER LOGINNicholas Hunt loves testing me a lot. When I just graduated from university, he tried to make me take on a five-million-dollar house mortgage. After I turned him down, Nicholas was quick to buy Yvonne Myers, the campus belle, a villa that was worth eight million dollars. It was even paid in full. As he held the property deed, he told me, "The truth is, I'm super rich. I've been pretending to be poor just so I can test your integrity. "It's a shame that you never passed my test. I'm very disappointed in you, Elizabeth. Let's break up." I just smiled at him casually. Then, I walked away without hesitation. What a coincidence. I'm the daughter of the richest man in the country. I, too, had been pretending to be poor. Four years later, we bump into each other at the Fortune List Summit. At that time, Nicholas has just squeezed into the top 50 rank. He walks into the venue with Yvonne clinging to his arm. It's then he notices me. I'm wearing plain-looking clothes without any jewelry adorning me, and I happen to be holding a child. Thinking that I'm a nanny, Nicholas begins mocking me. "Wow, you really went all out just to steal one more glance at me, huh? I can't believe you're able to follow me all the way here. "You should learn to accept reality, though. I'm on the Fortune List, while you're working as someone else's nanny. The gap between us is far too wide, so you should stop dreaming already!" I just ignore Nicholas in favor of resenting my dad for making me attend this stupid event. After all, I've just managed to block out one full day just to spend time with my son, and yet I have to waste my precious time on this dumb event.
Ver maisI finally reached my breaking point and exploded. "Nicholas, did you get kicked in the head by a donkey? Who do you think you are? That I'd ever have a child with you? Take a good look in the mirror. How could you possibly compare to my husband? You're delusional!"Nicholas' face darkened, but he still refused to back down. "Elizabeth, I don't believe you. We were together for four years. You passed every test I set. Your feelings for me were real. How could you just let me go and marry someone else? Dixon must have forced you, didn't he?"I took a deep breath and gave him one final warning. "Just thinking about how blind I was to ever date you makes me feel sick, like I swallowed a fly. Let me warn you—don't show your face in front of me again. If you do, I'll make sure you have no future in this city."I rolled up the car window and told the driver to go.But Nicholas kept shouting stubbornly, "Elizabeth, are you testing my sincerity right now? I'll pass your test!" With a look
The only one left behind was Nicholas. He hadn't directly touched me earlier, but now he just stood there staring, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't find the words. I ignored him. Dixon carried me to the car and took me straight to the hospital to have my injuries examined. By the time we returned home, a crowd had already gathered outside our gate. They were the heads of the families whose relatives had attacked me, all arriving in person to apologize. Before my father had even left the venue, he had publicly declared that those responsible would pay the price. He immediately severed all business ties with them. Several companies lost their suppliers and their funding overnight; within two days, they would collapse.Seeing that my father meant every word, the other families panicked and rushed over to apologize. At this point, they still didn't realize that the people who had caused the trouble were already sitting in a police station. When they saw Dixon and me pul
Everyone present looked terrified. One by one, they began begging for mercy. "Mr. Smith, we didn't mean it. Nicholas and Yvonne were the ones who incited us. We were all tricked!""Exactly! Yvonne said that if we taught your wife a lesson, she'd introduce us to you.""We'll compensate Mrs. Smith! Please, just spare us this once. We're begging you…"In an instant, all the blame shifted to Yvonne. Dixon fixed his gaze on her, his voice quiet but carrying a terrifying weight. "I'll make you pay a hundredfold for this."Under his murderous stare, Yvonne's legs gave out, and she collapsed onto the floor. She turned to Nicholas for help. "Nicholas, help me…"But Nicholas could barely help himself. In fact, he already loathed her. If she hadn't insisted on stirring up trouble, things would never have reached this irreparable point. Just then, his phone chimed. It was the report from his assistant. The investigation showed that during her university years, Yvonne had dated five wealt
Seeing my bruised, swollen face and Eli bawling in fright, my father exploded with rage. He raised his walking stick and swung it straight at the people who had attacked me.Everyone present recognized my father; he was a staple on financial news programs. Not a single person dared to fight back. They could only howl in pain as my father rained blows on them. But Yvonne still didn't understand. "Mr. Storm, did you hit the wrong people? This woman was pretending to be your daughter! The audacity! We couldn't stand the disrespect and decided to teach her a lesson for you. The one you should be hitting is her."My father helped me up from the ground, his voice a roar of fury. "Elizabeth Storm is my daughter! And you dared to treat her like this? I'll make sure you pay for it!"Dixon handed Eli to his assistant, then hurried over and cautiously took me from my father's arms. His voice was cold as ice as he looked at Yvonne. "You're telling me my wife kidnapped my son?"Yvonne's eyes
