Yafe only scowled even more upon hearing this. He asked tersely, "No matter what you say, you still have the blood of the Stone family running in your veins, so can't you just put all this behind us and retract everything?"Celena sneered, then replied, "I'm sorry, Mr. Stone, but I'm afraid I have to disagree with you. What happens to the Stone family no longer concerns me. "You tried to have me, my husband, and my daughter cast out over and over again, and you were always so eager to draw boundaries with me during my times of trouble. I have endured disappointment at your hands countless times, and I will no longer associate myself with a clan of selfish soul-sucking parasites."I, Celena Stone, share your name but do not share your bloodline any longer. My only relationship with the Stone family is that of a business partner. As a businesswoman, I carefully weigh the risks and benefits of every partnership my company enters into. "Stone Group is a small company, and there are p

Meanwhile, Liam went ahead and started packing their belongings for the upcoming trip. He had always known Celena was a gorgeous woman, but now that she had single handedly built up her own business that was only growing more successful by the day, she became all the more alluring to any man that set eyes on her. The last thing he wanted was for Celena to catch the eye of one of her old friends, and in Liam's experience, it was better to be safe than sorry. Therefore, no matter where Celena went, Liam made it his duty to accompany her, and provide her with nothing but the best, because she deserved it. The next morning, Celena woke up at the crack of dawn to do her hair and makeup, then slipped into a beautiful black satin dress. She matched the dress with a pair of silver stilettos and finished the look with a dazzling diamond necklace. Liam had bought this dress during his transit in Rasford City whilst on his way to Wraith Island, because he felt the dress was made for her. No

When Caroline heard that Paul would be hosting the gathering in honor of Celena, she was the first to accept the invitation, all to get a chance to mock Celena. Caroline's gaze swept over Liam, and the contempt in her eyes was unmistakable. She drawled, "Oh, Celena, poor Celena! I must say, your taste in men isn't very good. With your looks, you can have any man you like, and yet you chose this one?"I hear that your husband was a descendent of the noble Cole family from Drunham City, but they got massacred, and he was the lone survivor. Apparently, he was also the man who defiled you? Is that true? Well, how could you have married him? He has nothing to offer you! He's broke and has nothing to his name! You should've found yourself a handsome and wealthy man, one who can at least afford to buy you a car! How embarrassing!"Before Celena could respond, Caroline pulled her boyfriend over and said, smiling shyly, though the condescension was evident in her eyes, "My husband is so muc

"Do my ears deceive me? Did he say that he's Celena's husband?""Surely he must be kidding! How could Celena have married such an… ordinary person?""When did she even get married? I heard nothing about a wedding.""Celena's got terrible taste! Look at her husband! He looks so shabby, and he's a far cry from the type of man Celena could've ended up with!"Everyone erupted into whispers and murmurs upon learning this. All of a sudden, a young man dressed in a tuxedo leaped to his feet. Pointing at Liam, he said to Celena incredulously, "When did you get married, Celena? Is this man really your husband? Is he pulling our leg?""My, my, poor Paul! He must be heartbroken to learn that Celena is off the market!""I know! He's been head over heels for Celena since our college days, and apparently, he's never given up on her, even until now!""Tough luck then! Since she's brought that bloke with her, I guess it must be true then.""What do you know? Half of marriages end in divorce ev

The color drained from everyone's faces. Then, as if to prove a point, Liam turned around and pressed a kiss onto Celena's rosy, perfectly puckered lips. This sent a wave of jealousy coursing through every man watching, and they all glared at Liam with deepest loathing. If looks could kill, Liam would be dead a hundred times over. Liam was trying to mark his territory, and it worked!Celena clearly did not expect Liam to make such a dramatic speech, much less kiss her in front of all these people. She blushed, then smacked Liam's chest playfully and crooned, "Hey, tone it down! There are too many people here."There was not the slightest hint of accusation in her tone, and it was clear that she secretly liked it. The bashful expression on Celena's face only added to her allure. The men were all practically seething with rage and jealousy, especially Paul, whose features were twisted into a hideous grimace as he glared at Liam. He wanted nothing more than to skin Liam alive right
