“Go on, now. Artie is waiting for you for the toast.” Martha patted Sophia on the shoulder.

She walked out of the lounge to see Arthur waiting for her on the couch. When he saw her emerging, he got up and studied his wife with a pleasantly surprised look on his face. Then, he smiled when he saw the pendant on her neck.

“Looks like it has found its owner.”

Sophia found it quite amusing. She had worn it once before, and she never dared imagine that she would own it one day.

It was also because of this heirloom that she got to know its original owner and brought him to her, giving her the opportunity to fall in love with him.

“I think it has its own intentions. We’re together exactly because of it,” Sophia said, smiling.

Arthur took her hand. “Well, this proves that we’re made for each other.”

This was a traditional wedding. The bride wore a red dress, exuding an oriental aura which amazed the crowd. The area around her neck stood out, and people also noticed the round pendant which housed a gem.

All the family members knew that it was the family heirloom of the Weiss Family. From now on, Sophia would be the owner of the heirloom, which meant that she would be the successor of the Weiss family.

After the banquet in the afternoon, the guests went back to their rooms to rest while preparations for the banquet at night were under way.

Today, the Weiss Residence was filled with joy and cheer. There was laughter and chatter everywhere, and the guests were elated as well.

Meanwhile, in the detention center of the police station nearby, Johnny and his wife were in deep regret. Their lives were already ruined.

Once a person strayed from the right path, they would have to pay the price.

Emily was the one who suffered the most. She still hadn’t left home as she sat alone on the couch. She heard the joyful noise in the hall, and she watched the fireworks show from a distance. She felt as if numerous fangs were gnawing at her heart, and every ounce of her pride was trampled.

She was all alone now, and even her family couldn’t be by her side. She would have to live her life alone until her parents were released.

Emily sat there and pondered for a whole night. She felt that she should beg the Weiss Family for mercy to let her parents off the hook. If Martha said the word, her parents probably wouldn’t have to go to prison.

It was Arthur’s big day today, so she dared not go and beg right away. However, come tomorrow, she would definitely beg Martha for mercy. She could abandon all her pride just to save her parents, for she only wanted her family to be whole again.

It was getting late, and the guests went home joyously. Similarly, the bride and groom lay down to rest for the night.

The moonlight outside the window shone in as the newlyweds fell asleep in each other’s arms.

The next afternoon, Arthur and Sophia saw Elliot and Anastasia off at the airport, and they were also on the verge of embarking on their wedding trip.

Arthur had decided to take Sophia to an island nearby to rest for a week, then they would travel to Sophia’s home country to hold their wedding there. Meanwhile,

Martha had plans of her own as well.

She decided to move a part of their family’s property to Sophia’s home country, then live there as a permanent resident. Their family had expanded its business overseas for almost two hundred years, so it was about time for them to return to their roots. She even decided to be buried with her husband in the future,

In the evening, Sophia strolled in the garden outside with Martha, listening to the older woman’s amusing stories about her husband’s antics when he was at young child. She kept lowering her head to chuckle discreetly. Everyone’s childhood was filled with fun, it seemed -even Arthur was no different.

Just then, a servant came over to Martha and reported, ‘Old Madam Weiss, Miss Jennings is outside and wants to see you.”

Martha frowned as soon as she heard. that. “I don’t want to see her. Tell her to leave.”

‘She’s on her knees and won’t budge no matter what we say. She insists on seeing you.” The servant had tried to chase her away too, but it was exactly because

Emily refused to leave that the servant came to report it.

Martha huffed for a few seconds, furious at the mention of the Jennings. She said to Sophia, “Sophia, come with me!”

The latter nodded and followed Martha out of the yard. On the other side of the iron gates, Emily was kneeling with tears streaming down her face. She trembled visibly when she saw Sophia, then lowered her head in shame.

She never thought that Sophia would see her like this. It wouldn’t be too embarrassing if she kneeled and begged Martha, but Sophia simply had to come along to watch.

A hint of strong hatred flashed across her downcast eyes.

As soon as Martha saw Emily, she felt fury raging inside her. “Your family did such horrible things, yet you still have the guts to come begging for mercy?”

“Grandma, my parents have repented. They didn’t mean anything evil; they just loved me too much and wanted me to have a happy life in the future. They didn’t do it on purpose.” Emily still called her ‘Grandma’.

“Don’t call me that, for I don’t have a grandchild as evil as you. Your parents love you, but you also allowed them to carry out their plans. What makes you any different from them?”

“You did something to Artie so that he would forget about me. Do you think you can attain happiness just like that? Did it ever occur to you that Artie’s life could’ve been in danger?” Sophia also questioned angrily.

Tears streamed down Emily’s face as sudden anger took over her. She looked up and glared at Sophia as she said, “If it weren’t for you, I would’ve been a perfect match for Artie. You! You’re the one who caused this to happen.”

“How dare you! You haven’t repented at all! You’re even pushing the blame on Sophia, but she’s completely innocent in this matter. I was wrong about you,” Martha shouted. She once thought that

Emily was a decent girl, but she never thought that the latter would turn so evil because of her jealousy. Emily truly wasn’t a good person at heart.

Emily’s hatred only grew stronger. She had originally come to beg for mercy, but when she saw Sophia, her anger was stoked. Thus, she did the wrong thing again. She shouted in panic, “Grandma, I’m sorry-“

Just then, she noticed the family heirloom Sophia was wearing around her neck, and she couldn’t help but gasp. That was supposed to be hers!

“Get lost. Your parents have to pay the price for what they did, and as for you, I don’t want to see you ever again. Leave right now and never appear in front of us again.” Martha’s glare was extremely fierce. “If I see you once more, I won’t let you off the hook.”

Emily kneeled on the ground in despair. She wanted to beg for mercy, but she didn’t want to come again, which would only provoke Martha.

“Sophia, what right do you have to marry Artie? You’re so plain and useless; you’re only after the Weiss Family’s riches. Grandma, she doesn’t truly love Artie,” Emily shouted, raising her voice. She wasn’t convinced and wanted to grab at every chance to drag Sophia down.

Martha was extremely furious. She knew right away what Emily was getting at. She turned around and said, “Sophia possesses the most precious thing, but you don’t.”

“What is it? I have everything she has,” Emily shouted indignantly.

“She has a kind heart and a pure soul, but what about you? You only have an evil heart and an ugly soul,” Martha reprimanded without holding back.

Emily was instantly at a loss for words. In her eyes, kindness was useless. She had been taught by her mother since young that one should fight for something they wanted, and kindness would only be looked down upon.

As Emily watched Martha and Sophia walk away, she covered her face in pain. She was completely defeated, and she had lost everything she had, including her most-valued pride.

Early morning the next day, a large helicopter departed from the yard outside the villa, then flew over miles of plains, which then turned into the sea as it headed right for a private island owned by the Weiss Family.

In the helicopter, Sophia was a little terrified, but when a large hand gripped hers tightly, she immediately calmed down. She turned and looked at the man beside her, then smiled as she began to appreciate the scenery outside, overcoming her fear of being on a helicopter for the first time.

She soon realized it was exciting and fun, and the scenery below them was picturesque.

They arrived at the island after half an hour, and there were servants tasked with managing the place. When Sophia saw the clean beach, her heart leaped in joy.

After touring around the island villa they would be staying in, Sophia went to the pool outside. She reached in and tested the temperature, and she actually had the urge to have a quick dip.

“Do you want to swim?” Behind her, Arthur seemed to have read her mind.
