Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 433

The woman covered her face and explained with tears in her eyes, “My leg was really numb…” Everyone criticized her again.

Julian said indifferently, “Go home if your legs are numb.

Don’t attend the Parks family’s banquets in the future, lest you trip up other guests.” “Mr.

Parks…” The woman’s husband was shocked.

This meant that the man was out to burn bridges.

Everyone knew that the Parks family was the number one wealthy family in Jadeborough.

Being invited to the Parks family’s banquet meant that there would be opportunities for cooperation in the future.

He wouldn’t even be qualified to attend the banquet in the future, which meant that he was blacklisted by the Parks family from then on out.

At the very least, within Julian’s sphere of influence, he could not get a share of the projects.

The woman’s husband wanted to plead for leniency, but when he saw Julian’s sharp and cold gaze, he immediately shut his mouth.

He said ingratiatingly, “I’ll bring her home immediately.

I’m sorry to have caused you trouble.” He had to take this stupid woman away and find an opportunity to plead for leniency in the future.

The woman didn’t think too much about it.

She thought that most of her projects were given by Layla and that she wouldn’t attend the Parks family’s banquet in the future.

It was no big deal.

Julian glanced at the woman indifferently and said politely to the guests at the table, “Everyone, enjoy your meal!” “Alright, alright.

Thank you, Mr.

Parks!” Everyone replied enthusiastically.

All of them sighed in their hearts, thinking that one really had to marry a virtuous wife.

If one were to marry such a woman who had no sense of propriety, one’s family’s business would be ruined in minutes.

Layla looked over as she ate.

Seeing that girl had failed, she got very annoyed, cursing that stupid woman.

Julian hugged Annalise and whispered in her ear, “We’ll settle this score with her after our wedding.” That woman wanted to trip Annalise, and he wasn’t about to let it slide.

“Yes,” Annalise replied.

She turned around and smiled at Julian.

She liked Julian’s bias toward her.

No matter what one did to the person who hurt one’s loved ones, it wouldn’t be too much.

At another table, Layla’s other girl saw that the situation was not right.

She immediately gave up on the idea of attacking and kept her head down.

After the banquet ended, everyone went about their own business.

Some people went back to their rooms to rest.

Most of the people were walking around the cruise ship in high spirits, especially some of the wealthy ladies, old and young alike.

Although their families were also rich, they were not worth mentioning compared to big families like the Parks family and the Xander family.

The more they strolled around, the more they marveled at the luxury of the cruise ship.

On the cruise ship, there were all kinds of entertainment facilities.

The decorations were colorful and dazzling.

It was extravagance brought to reality.

Everywhere they went, every detail was exquisite.

Looking up, she could see four pearls placed in the middle of the cruise ship.

At this moment, the pearl emitted a warm glow under the sun.

Beside the pearl, there was a plaque covered with silk, which probably had the name of the cruise ship written on it.

“I wonder what’s this ship’s name?” Someone asked curiously “I heard that the plaque will be removed at 9:09 tonight,” Someone else said.

“Then we must take a good look later.

We have to know the name of the ship we’re on!” “Right.” “Cruise ships are generally named with the same old.

Victoria, Hamlet, and whatnot.

All named after famous people.” “I hope the Parks family’s cruise ship name can sound a bit special.” “That’s right.

Riches seems to have a nice ring to it.” “Pfft, that’s so old-fashioned.” “The more you guys talk, the more I want to know the name of this ship.” “Let’s go, let’s walk around and witness it together at night.

Wow, that’s an entire jade sculpture over there.

Such a huge piece is really gonna cost them.

Miss, take a photo for me…” Julian brought Annalise back to their room to rest.

Trevor came to look for him immediately, saying that James was looking for him Julian let Annalise rest in the room.

In the corridor of James’ room, Trevor and Julian told him about Jared’s attempt to kill Preston and frame Julian as the killer.

“How is Preston now?” Julian asked in a deep voice.

He didn’t look pleased.

He had already made people pay close attention to the security aspect of this wedding.

Trevor said, “Preston is fine, but his bodyguard is seriously injured.

He’s lucky that the dagger was about an inch away from his heart.

Now, Joseph and John have already treated the wound.

“It’s my fault.

I placed the focus of security in the banquet hall.

I thought that everyone would be in the banquet hall.

There were too many people and it was noisy.

I was afraid that something would happen.

There were only four people left in the guest room.

As soon as the power went out, they went to deal with the equipment and someone took advantage of the situation.” “Yes, it’s good that he didn’t get any vital organs injured,” Julian replied.

The two of them walked to James’ room.

After pressing the doorbell, James came to open the door.

James was sitting on the couch with a computer on his lap, typing on the keyboard.

“Sir!” Julian greeted.

James nodded, closed the computer, and said, “Sit!” Trevor and Julian sat down.

“Don’t let Anna know about this for the next few days.

Don’t affect her mood” James said Julian nodded.

“Yes” He had the same thought James sighed again.

“Although Anna is only 20 years old, it has not been easy for her to come this far.

Don’t look at all that glory about her now.

She has really had her share of hard times.

Even though we doted on her as her mentors, we did not indulge her.

Instead, we were very strict with her.

“She went up the mountain to dig for medicine. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Sometimes, she would stay there for half a month.

There were many mosquitoes on the mountain, and sometimes, she would encounter snakes.

“Randall Fighting Arts was mostly practiced by men.

She, a girl, had to suffer more than the boys to practice the art.

“When she was learning calligraphy and painting from Cash and Madeline, she often stayed in the studio for an entire day.

Madeline was the only woman among us.

Although she was good to Anna, when she taught the girl how to draw, she was very harsh.

Every day, she would ask Anna to draw wine bottles and she was picking at flaws all the time.

“Ahem, when Anna was learning computing from me, she often had to memorize code until she cried… “She got what she got today all because of her hard work.

“The few of us mentors don’t have anything more to teach her and can’t be by her side often.

We just hope that her future days will be sweet.” Trevor’s eyes turned red.

He was also someone who had been saved before.

He knew too well how lucky it was for one to was to meet a benefactor in one’s life when one was helpless.

His throat tightened as he said, “Anna’s future will definitely be good.” Julian said, “I will treat her well for the rest of my life.

I will pamper her, love her, cherish her, and protect her.” James nodded.

“Protect her well.” “I will,” Julian replied seriously.

James’s expression became benevolent as he said, “Among her five mentors, I’m the one who spends the least time with Anna, making me the worst among the five of us.

It’s rare for us to meet this time, so I want to give Anna a gift.

During the banquet, I’ll prepare a drone performance for Anna.” “Thank you, sir.

I thank you on Annie’s behalf as well,” Julian said.

James nodded and smiled.

“You’re welcome.

In my heart, Anna is like my own daughter.”
