Ryan Hayes is the most powerful man in Sea city. He took over the company at 18 years old and made it a multinational enterprise in five years. He is so talented in the business. In his spare time, he often chats with Hailey Anderson online. However, they never meet each other in reality. They are confidants online. Hailey is a girl who comes from a village. One month ago, a woman came to pick her up and said Hailey was the young lady of the Anderson family. From then on, her life was changed. Luckily, there is Ryan who always accompanies her. Once in the chat, Ryan knew Hailey had come to Sea city, he made an invitation to Hailey. He wanted to see Hailey in reality!
A black car left the fishing village, got on the highway, and ran at top speed.
Hailey Anderson, who just had her 19th birthday, looked out of the window at the quickly receding trees. Her face was expressionless.
Leilani, a maid who was sent there to pick her up, was playing with her phone raptly in the passenger seat.
The entire carriage was filled with the noise of the phone and Leilani's boisterous laughter.
She hadn't reached Anderson's door yet, but the maid had already shown such an attitude. Imagine what she was going to face.
According to Leilani, she was Melody Anderson's daughter. At her young age, Melody was capricious and ignorant. Her family found her a good marriage partner, but she ran away with a toyboy. In the end, the man cheated her out of her money and left.
In his anger, William Anderson, the patriarch, disowned his daughter. Melody felt too ashamed to go back and chose to marry a random guy. Then, her contact with her family was lost for 20 years.
The maid also claimed that William had been missing his daughter. Upon hearing the news of Melody's death, the old man was seriously ill and insisted on taking Hailey back. On top of that, he would acknowledge her at the birthday banquet tomorrow.
At that, the corner of Hailey's mouth curved up in a faint sneer.
William had her back just for trade.
The main business of Anderson Group was health care. Last month, Jack Anderson, William's eldest son, signed a 20-million-yuan supply contract with a company from Country M. It was their largest order in the past five years.
One month later, right before the delivery date, their partner suddenly disappeared.
Apparently, Jack was caught in a fraud.
20 million yuan's worth of goods was overstocked. If they couldn't sell them off and get the payment, bankruptcy could be expected soon.
Then someone came up with the idea of seeking capital injection through marriage.
The Anderson Family soon found a buyer-The Cox Family from Sea City. Their third son was paralyzed from a car accident.
There was only one girl in the Anderson Family at a marriageable age, but Eliza Anderson was the beloved granddaughter and the apple of William's eye. The old man would not marry her off and shifted his attention to the other granddaughter. Hailey was living in a small fishing village.
The car got off the highway, ran into the bustling urban area, and stopped at a traffic light.
Sea City was the largest metropolis in Nine Continent. This city and the capital city, Dawn, were laurelled as the Twin Pearls of the Empire.
Hailey looked out of the window and saw a black Rolls Royce Phantom next to their car. It happened that she owned the same model in the same color.
Out of curiosity, she stared at the car. Just then, its window dropped, revealing a reserved and impeccable side face. Under the sunlight, the man was holding a phone diagonally to take pictures.
Hailey simmered with laughter. It turned out cool, and ascetic men would also take selfies.
When the green light was on, the cars started again. One turned left and the other right...
Hailey snapped her gaze back and sat properly in the back seat.
Bzzt...
Her cell phone vibrated in her bag. Hailey took it out and unlocked the screen. On a communication application with a puppy icon popped up a message.
Sweet Dog: The weather in Sea City is great today. I just got off the plane.
The message was followed by a picture of white clouds and blue sky. The clouds looked like a puppy wagging its tail.
Her fingers danced on the keyboard.
Sea Rafflesia: I arrived in Sea City, too. Now we're in the same time zone.
Sweet Dog: How is the new environment?
Hailey glanced at Leilani, who was lying in the seat, snoring. She grinned.
Sea Rafflesia: Well, a lot of interesting people. It's gonna be fun.

I received a pornographic video. "Do you like this?" The man speaking in the video is my husband, Mark, whom I haven't seen for several months. He is naked, his shirt and pants scattered on the ground, thrusting forcefully on a woman whose face I can't see, her plump and round breasts bouncing vigorously. I can clearly hear the slapping sounds in the video, mixed with lustful moans and grunts. "Yes, yes, fuck me hard, baby," the woman screams ecstatically in response. "You naughty girl!" Mark stands up and flips her over, slapping her buttocks as he speaks. "Stick your ass up!" The woman giggles, turns around, sways her buttocks, and kneels on the bed. I feel like someone has poured a bucket of ice water on my head. It's bad enough that my husband is having an affair, but what's worse is that the other woman is my own sister, Bella. ************************************************************************************************************************ āI want to get a divorce, Mark,ā I repeated myself in case he didn't hear me the first timeāeven though I knew he'd heard me clearly. He stared at me with a frown before answering coldly, "It's not up to you! I'm very busy, don't waste my time with such boring topics, or try to attract my attention!" The last thing I was going to do was argue or bicker with him. "I will have the lawyer send you the divorce agreement," was all I said, as calmly as I could muster. He didn't even say another word after that and just went through the door he'd been standing in front of, slamming it harshly behind him. My eyes lingered on the knob of the door a bit absentmindedly before I pulled the wedding ring off my finger and placed it on the table. I grabbed my suitcase, which I'd already had my things packed in and headed out of the house.
