Chapter 500 The Final Chapter
Chapter 500 The Final Chapter
Inside the top university of architecture and design in the world, Priscilla was venting to Sadie, her best friend. "I pity Bob. He's been following in our father's footsteps ever since he was a child. In my opinion, he's had enough of that miserable life. He's already reached the age when he's supposed to get married, but he was cuckolded by Coy. The day they got engaged, his fiancee slept with Coy. Nobody is more miserable than Bob."
Affected by her emotion, Sadie patted her shoulder and said. "Priscilla, he’s going to be fine. A good person like your brother is bound to live a happy life.”
"I believe you. Bob is the best! He's so much better than Coy. Poor Mona. I can't believe Coy raped her! What a mess!" Later on, because of Priscilla, Sadie met Bob. The three of them had dinner together.
In the middle of the dinner, Priscilla went to the bathroom. Sadie looked at Bob, and felt drawn to him. While he was working and eating at the same time, she said, “Boston, I'll design a company building for you for free, but in return, will you be my boyfriend?”
Her grandparents had always told her that she brought happiness to them. And now, she wanted to bring happiness to this pitiable man in front of her.
Although the Xi family was the wealthiest and most powerful clan in all of H City, her family wasn't poor either. Her father's company was one of the top one hundred enterprises in the world.
Even though their families weren't of equal social rank. they were just shy of enough to be a perfect match. She wasn't overconfident of her worth, but she had enough guts to ask him out.Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Boston put down his phone in silence, and started contemplating. ‘Do I look that pitiful? Otherwise, she wouldn't have thought that HL Group had no top designers or that I didn't have enough money to pay for a designer.
Besides, even if I need a design for a building, I wouldn't cast aside my own company's designers just to make use of the design of a girl who hasn't even graduated yet.
And she wants to be my girlfriend? Definitely not!
However, she was Priscilla's best friend, so he didn't have the heart to shut her down completely. He was afraid that refusing her would humiliate her. "Let's talk about that deal once you have a carefully designed sketch!"
He only said those words to appease her, but he didn't expect her to actually go through with it
Three months later, a girl wearing a backpack appeared at the HL Group building. “Hello, I'm looking for Boston Xi," she said to the receptionist. "May I know who's looking for him?" asked the receptionist.
"I'm his girlfriend.”
Her words silenced the receptionist. 'Why haven't I heard that Mr. Xi has a girlfriend already?”
Just then, a group of people entered the building
Sadie turned around and saw the man walking ahead of everyone else. She trotted over and blocked his way. "Boston."
Boston remembered that this girl was Priscilla’s best friend. "What are you doing here?"
Sadie took out a blueprint from her backpack and gave it to him. "I'm here to keep our promise.”
Boston fell silent.
He took the blueprint and carefully reviewed it, his eyes widening in surprise. “Come to my office and we'll talk about this."
Never did he imagine that this girl was actually a genius in terms of designing.
From then on, their story began. When Sadie and Priscilla graduated from college. she won Boston's heart and soon became Mrs. Xi. Priscilla didn’t find out who her future sister-in-law was until the day they got engaged. When she saw Sadie, she was slack-jawed in awe.
She pretended as though she was mad about it, but in reality, she wasn't. The reason Priscilla did that was because Sadie had never told her that she was going out with her brother.
While they were talking, Priscilla scoffed at Sadie and accidentally laid eyes on Sadie's brother.
The man was just about the same age as Coyle, and he was very good-looking. Secretly, Priscilla had made a decision. Not long after the Xi family got a new daughter-in-law, their beloved princess also got married.
Many years later, a high-end residential community sprouted. It was where international stars and business tycoons lived.
A guide leading a group of young tourists pointed at a house. "Follow me. The tallest building over there is the most famous one of all. Why is it so renowned, you ask? It's the condominium that James Xi, the business tycoon, bought for his ex-wife. The most beautiful apartment on the highest floor is Maria Song's private condo. They say that it's worth three billion dollars. Inside of the apartment are countless treasures that Mr. Xi bought to please her. In addition. the security system around the condominium is the most advanced in the world."
A young man corrected the tourist guide. "There's actually one thing you got wrong. Maria and James got married again, and their second wedding was also very grand. They're a married couple.”
The guide smiled and said, "You're right. Maria is James' wife, not his ex-wife!" Who was Maria?
She was the only person in the world, capable of making James put aside the HL Group's billion dollar-worth of contracts just to deal with her company's emergencies.
She was the only woman in this world that he would gladly provide everything unconditionally. More importantly, everyone who knew them was aware that Maria was the apple of his eye.
But what they didn't know was that she hadn't compromised yet, and she hadn't even gone to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get marriage certificates with him
Years later, when all of their children had grown up, Maria and James finally went to the Civil Affairs Bureau hand in hand to legally remarry each other.
As he stared at the marriage licenses in his hand, James let out a sigh. "My wife is really hard to get! Fortunately, I persevered throughout all this years. Honey, you are the love of my life.”
Maria flashed him a bright smile. "Well, I do admit that you are also the love of my life."
Afterwards, he embraced her. "I love you so much, honey." He had said that sentence many times, but never did he grow tired of saying it. "I know, honey.” And she loved him, too
She had heard him say those words countless of times, but she never got tired of hearing them.
A new Harkim pulled over in front of them. They entered the car and drove towards their home
Later, Maria asked, "Why did you agree to marry me back then? Back then, I wasn't beautiful, and there was nothing special about me." “Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, my love," answered James.
Maria fell silent. She could clearly remember that she wasn't that beautiful before. How could he have fallen in love with her? 'He's probably just flattering me!"
If they had-to argue about who won and whodost i in their relationship, they wouldn't know the answer. They were madly in love with each othef, and over time, they became eaeh other's strength and weakness.
But if was necessary to give an answer, Maria might've been the winner. James wasn't that respectful of her, but he always did whatever she asked for.
Perhaps he had lost this battle from the very moment Maria told him her name and asked him for his hand in marriage. Since he had never fallen in love before, he hadn't realized that she was gradually taking root in his heart.
Seven years after their divorce, Maria returned. He was well aware that she approached him with an ulterior motive, but he wasn't strong enough to refuse her because his heart belonged to her.

Ethan once said that Maria was too intimidating to arouse a man's desire to protect her.
But unbeknownst to him, whenever Maria cried, James' heart would soften, and he would retaliate against anyone who wronged her. Once, Maria asked James, "I don’t want money. I already have a lot of me. Is there anything else you can give me besides that?"
A faint smile appeared on his lips. "My life. I can give it to you if you want it."
This woman was his reason for living.
Once upon a time, that she loved-him, him. She felt that s every waking mom with hi: Even

Perhaps everyone believed that she was so humble in their relationship, but it didn't matter that much.
Something she read in a book had been engraved in her heart. “Believe in yourself. As long as you are enmeshed in a cocoon, you can one day become a beautiful butterfly.”
And now, James was madly in love with her.
For the sake of their three children, Maria willingly cast aside the past to be with him. She would go to hell and back with him, and face all odds and sorrows of the future together.
And they would never, ever give up.
The end.
