Even though Bowen was also in disbelief, Jeffery's demeanor made it clear that Henry was no ordinary person.Someone extraordinary like him could not possibly be bluffing."But this is too terrifying—"Suddenly, Sebastian chimed in, "His last name is Truman. Is he part of the Truman family in Aurelia?"Due to the incident with Eric, they had learned a bit about the families in Aurelia. However, they could not find anyone to help them.Bowen immediately said, "The Trumans in Aurelia? No way! It's simply impossible! Why would someone from that family be in our small town?"The Trumans were among the top families in Aurelia, and their children were treated like kings among the younger generations of Cathysia."That's true. If that's the case, who's he?"Bowen flashed a wry smile, saying, "Regardless, he has promised to help. Perhaps our crisis will be resolved.""But what if he's all talk?" An elder sighed.Just then, Lilian walked in with a sad expression.She greeted everyone

Lora felt offended.However, knowing that her actions had hurt Henry and his relationship with Lydia, she could only stay silent.Henry felt a surge of emotions but pushed them aside and said, "Lydia, this really is a misunderstanding. How did you end up here? Did someone deliberately lead you here?""Deliberately lead me here?" Lydia scoffed. "Henry, are you still trying to shift the blame onto someone else? Are you implying Sarah purposely brought me here to sabotage our relationship?"Lydia's face was filled with anger as she spoke."Isn't it?" Henry glanced at Sarah, a hint of hostility in his eyes.Sarah flinched at Henry's glance, feeling a sudden sense of unease.Yet, before she could say anything, Lydia erupted, "Of course not! This has nothing to do with Sarah. I wanted to come here!"Sarah could not help but feel a sense of satisfaction.After all, she had been trying to lead Lydia there.It just so happened that Lydia wanted to rest at a nearby hotel.Hence, Sarah

John was afraid Lydia might change her mind, so he wanted to finalize the matter as soon as possible to avoid complications."Alright, I'll go over there tomorrow morning," Simon said."Okay," John replied.Then, he called Lydia, urging her to return for the discussion.Lydia suspected it was about Simon and hesitated, saying, "I don't want to come home tonight. Let's talk about it tomorrow.""We need to talk about it now. Hurry back."Accepting the proposal from Mr. Walker is the right choice. He's talented and has studied abroad. He's a perfect match for you," John said.Lydia's expression soured because she was regretting her decision.She should not have hastily agreed, even if she was angry with Henry.After all, she had no romantic feelings for Simon and was repulsed by his recent actions.She would have ignored him if it had not been for their past connection.Lydia had a soft spot for Simon only because she still regarded him as Little Beggar from her childhood.All

Sarah's face was flushed with anger.Lydia chuckled wryly, saying, "We can't blame him. After all, he represents the Walker family. And he did say he was willing to give me a chance.""In that case, Mr. Walker is not that bad. Marrying him might not be such a bad thing after all," Sarah said.However, she noticed Lydia's slight change in expression and quickly said, "It's a shame that you don't have feelings for him at all. You only like that jerk, Henry."I'll reach out to a few friends and see if we can do anything.""There might not be a way..." Lydia sighed.After all, they were talking about the Walker family from the provincial capital.She could not find a solution, so how could Sarah?"If there's no way, we'll just have to find a way. Don't worry. I'll try my best to help you," Sarah replied determinedly.Lydia was deeply touched by her words."Alright, thank you, Sarah. But don't push yourself too hard. If it doesn't work out, it's okay. You've already done so much f

Well, the best way was to stay calm and come up with the solutions later.Lydia remembered John's words and decided it was best to head back.Sarah expressed concern for Lydia and insisted on accompanying her, promising to stay by her side all night.Lydia agreed, believing that Sarah was the only one who had been there for her and with whom she had faced all the difficulties.Indeed, best friends were the only ones a woman could rely on.As for the rest, especially men, they were all jerks.Just like Henry.She had given her best for him, yet he was out there flirting and seeing other beautiful women.After hanging up with Lydia, John immediately reported to Simon and waited anxiously for Lydia's response.However, as time passed with no reply, he could not resist calling to check on her.He felt relieved when he heard Lydia was already on her way home.Finally, things were falling into place.Lydia's parents were also overjoyed to hear the news.However, when Mike return
