People often say when men reach middle age, their looks and strength deteriorate.
Amelia Clarke doesn't think so. At least, not for Owen Turner. Even in middle age, he’s still exceptionally striking and strong.
Owen Turner countered, saying: “I'm only thirty-five, nowhere near middle-aged.”
…
Owen Turner, born into a distinguished family, self-made founder of the Boway Group, a huge influencer in commercial circles.
When people talk about him, they describe a mature, serious, and austere entrepreneur with an unfathomable background.
Such a solemn and almost harsh successful man has, in an uncharacteristic twist, taken a young bride fourteen years his junior.
Amelia Clarke, a resilient grass that sways in the storm, became the envy of everyone overnight after marrying into a well-known affluent family.
…
Rumors circulate that Mrs. Moreland is a vixen who has seduced the upstanding, self-disciplined Mr. Turner.
Further rumors suggest that Mr. Turner is absolutely smitten with his young wife.
During an interview.
The host asked, “People say Mr. Turner married Mrs. Moreland because she's young and beautiful. Is that true? Besides beauty, does she have any other merits?”
Owen Turner responded, “I love her, whether she is beautiful or not, I would have married her regardless. She doesn't need to have any merits. Loving me is her greatest merit.”
The unsuspecting host swallowed the unexpected response and continued, “When did Mr. and Mrs. Moreland first meet? How did you meet?”
Owen Turner said, “The first meeting was fifteen years ago…”
The host: “…”
Fifteen years ago, he saved her life. Fifteen years later, he asked for her to share her life with him.

The twenty-one year-old Amelia Clarke became the beloved darling of the Campbell family.
Old Lady Moreland said, “Emma dear, quickly finish your bird's nest soup.”
Old Master Moreland said, “Emma dear, this ancestral bracelet is for you.”
Mr. Campbell said, “Emma dear, here's a card for you. Buy whatever you want, don't worry about the cost.”
Third Uncle Moreland said, “Jacob, you better not bully Emma. Otherwise your Third Aunt-in-law and I won't let you off!”
Third Aunt Moreland said, “Hmm hmm hmm!”
Uncle Moreland said, “I don't have much to offer, but I can provide you with two bodyguards. They can hold their own in a fight.”
Amelia Clarke said, “…” Is all this fuss necessary just because I’m pregnant?
[A one-to-one, sweet love story of a marriage in a wealthy family]

Jocelyn Griffin's words sounded right, as if she did nothing wrong, merely standing by as an observer.


Yet Benjamin Griffin still couldn't accept her indifference, a 27-year-old well-educated, sensible, and empathetic lady of high society shouldn't harbor such cold thoughts. 


"Jocelyn, she's your grandmother. Without her, our family would never have its current status..."


"What status?" Jocelyn retorted, "A status of dependency? Being manipulated? Being ridiculed?"


"Ever since Grandpa and Grandma announced that Amelia Clarke is the Collins' biological granddaughter, haven't all those people in our circle been waiting to watch our family, The Griffins, get kicked out of the Collins' like a defeated dog? Don't you feel that?"


How could he not feel it? Every time he stepped out, the two-faced behavior of those people outside was irritating.


Silence lingered between father and daughter.
