The family members waited for Emelia to taste the food before digging in. It was like they were waiting for her opinion before eating.Meanwhile, Hardin watched them with a smirk playing at the corner of his lips. Unlike everyone else, he didn't start eating, instead, he waited to see their reactions_Their disgusted and angry face when they taste Jules's food. He was sure that they were going to be disappointed especially his grandmother. However, no one said a word but ate their food in silence. Also by the look on their face, you could tell they were enjoying it. How can this be? Letitia surely spiked the food with a lot of salt, why is no one saying anything? Why are they still eating the food? Hardin thought, looking very confused.He tilts his gaze from his grandmother to the rest of the family_What even shock him the most was the fact that Hero who hated Jules was eating the food without a word or so much as a scrunched face. What the f*ck!Meanwhile, Emelia smiled slightly as

"Fine, she would go to the party_ However, it won't be with Harris, but with Hero," Emelia muttered.She had wanted to say Jules should go alone in a separate car, but she knew Mr.Harper and Harley might not agree. So instead she said Jules should go with Hero, knowing that he was not close to Jules and would probably ignore her during the party, which would attract less attraction.But in Harris's case, it was different. seeing that he liked Jules and was close to her. He would definitely be around her during the party and that would attract attention. People would want to know who she is, and what she does. And Emelia wanted to prevent that from happening. She was oblivious to the fact that even if Jules went with Hero, Harris would still find a way to be with her.Meanwhile, the whole family looked at Emelia like she had grown two heads. They wondered why she wanted Jules to go with Hero, knowing how much he disliked her. what could she be up to?"Grandmother, I don't understand..

By now Jules's skin was red and it was starting to itch profusely, that she couldn't help but scratch it. One could tell she was having an allergic reaction to the wine, Sasha poured on her.Seeing Jules in her current condition, Sasha chuckled evilly, instead of being worried or even helping Jules. Instead, she said, "I warned you didn't I? If only you had listened to me, none of this would have happened."The people around who had witnessed what had happened started to panic and worry about Jules. Although at first when Sasha had called her a husband snatched, they couldn't help but see her as a bad person. But seeing her skin so red from the wine spilled on her, they also couldn't help but feel Sasha was too extreme and pity her.A drop of tears trickled down Jules's eyes and she tilted her gaze to Sasha."Help me," she mumbled in a low and pitiful voice. however, Sasha scoffed and replied, "Why should I? You got what you deserve you, husband snatcher."Jules chuckled in pain, as s

Emelia sighed and thought for a while... As much as she wanted to, she knew she couldn't just fix her son's marriage to another woman when he was already married. Although she didn't like Jules, it doesn't change that fact. Furthermore, she observed that Harley and Harris were already so accustomed to her.Nonetheless, Emelia couldn't tell Peggy that Mr.Harper was already married to someone else. Because she would want to know who it is and Emelia did not want that. Besides she knew that her son would never agree to take a second wife, so she told Peggy the partial truth. "Peggy, I would have loved the union between your daughter and my son, however, Harper already has someone he's interested in."Peggy gasped in surprise and tilted her gaze in Mr. Harper's direction then back to Emelia. "You mean Harper is interested in someone, But who?" She asked, with her brow knitted up.Since Mr.Harper has been single for years after his wife's death, she found it surprising that he was now int

Jules gasped in Horror. 'Did I hear him right? Did he just say molest?' Her face immediately turn crimson red and she asked, "Wh...what do you mean by molest? Who molested you?"Hero's lips curved into an evil smirk when he saw the worried look on her face. "Why are you acting like you don't know what happened last night, after all, you did to me? I have to say you are a wild one, Jules Verne... Even with all my manly strength, I couldn't stop you from doing dirty things to me. Now you stand there looking all innocent. Don't even think you can get away. You have to pay for what you did to me," Hero lets out in a stern tune, making it sound believable.Fear engulf's Jules while her face turns even redder than it was before. 'Did I really do that? Oh, God! Did I really molest him? But how could I, and why can't I remember,' she mulled. Although she wanted to doubt him, hearing the seriousness in his voice and seeing the anger on his face, she was forced to believe it."I...I'm sorry,"
