This is the most romantic and wonderful metropolis in the world, bar none.
This is especially true for France, where the street buildings exude a romantic artistic atmosphere, the flowers are eternally fragrant, and the fragrance (perfume) products are the most famous. Moreover, the men here have an innate gentlemanly demeanor and etiquette, which is common to almost all girls.
Dream.
Of course, no matter how romantic a country is, there are complex social classes, including nobles, prominent business families, and companies that dominate most of the country's economy——
The Louis family is a French aristocrat with a history of hundreds of years. Its family business, the Louisti Group, is a leading global luxury brand. In recent years, its perfume products have become popular all over the world. Such a wealthy aristocrat is the ideal choice for unmarried ladies.
The dream palace you look up to. However, since ancient times, the family has great business and internal struggles. After the death of the old marquis, the previous head of the Louis family, his eldest son, Huangfu Will• Louis, inherited the noble title, the position of head of the family, and Louis.
As the president of Siti Group, this king-like man shoulders almost all the important responsibilities!
But he is not the only outstanding man in the Louis family. If Will was once the Prince Charming that girls all yearned for, then his younger brother James was undoubtedly a wild and unrestrained dark horse:
Publicity, danger, suspicion, and conspiracy are like beasts lurking in the darkness, gnashing their teeth and claws, always keeping an eye on the position of the head of the family, and one or two failures cannot affect him at all.
As long as Huangfu Weir showed any flaws, he would be ready to pounce on him and try to pull him down!
Almost all of France knew that the eldest son of the great nobleman Louis, Prince Will, was the head of the family, but there was also his second son James who was always fighting against him to compete for the head of the family.
Therefore, whether Prince Charming or Prince Dark Horse, there will always be a side that girls can’t imagine...
Half a year after Yu Huangfu Weir's wedding, the Lewis family ushered in another internal fight.
That night was a rainy night, and through the rain and fog, the century-old Gothic castle of Louis' family was like a masterpiece of God, majestic, dreamy, and poetic.
In the distance, dozens of cars were slowly approaching in the rain and fog...
In the ancient castle, the wrought iron candlesticks were lit, shining brightly on the surrounding luxurious antique furniture. Family members from different clans gathered together, with majestic and white-haired family elders on the throne.
Everyone looked at the two brothers Huangfu Will and James.
Huangfu Will sat on the head of the family's seat in the middle, folding his arms, "James, I know you try to expose my evil deeds every once in a while, so what evidence did you find this time?" He shrugged,
The handsome face of the mixed-race beauty expresses calmness.
Under the European retro candle chandelier, a man with a slender body, wearing sexy and tight black leather pants and a black jacket, was in the middle of the vast hall.
He has the most popular short black curly hair, a sharp nose, and a sharp face.
Unlike Huangfu Weir, who is handsome and heroic, he is a handsome man with an evil aura...
"My dear brother, you really understand me!" He smiled crookedly in front of everyone, "Because I feel that I am more suitable to be the head of the family, so I will always keep an eye on you. If I think that my father has passed away, you sit down
If you win just by getting into that position, that would be a big mistake!"
"Yes." Huangfu Will nodded and looked at him calmly, "Of course I understand that you are very smart and capable, and I will always remind myself. But I am very busy, and you have something to say in front of everyone.
Let’s talk as soon as possible, okay?”
The crowd present was full of nobility. The Lewis family, even if they are a side branch, is either rich or noble, and they are the best among people!
All eyes turned back to James.
There was an elder couple sitting in the upper seat. The male elder spoke seriously, "Will is right. We all took the time to gather here. James, you can't joke."
"Busy?" James's eyes were half-squinted, and he took two unsteady steps towards Huangfu Will, looking evil and arrogant. "My brother used to be very leisurely. He left the company and went to China for a half-year vacation. When he came back, he brought
This woman...oh, is now my sister-in-law.
Could it be that my brother put down his official duties to pick up girls?"
There were already some whispers in the room. The wedding of Huangfu Will and Ian An was too grand, which shocked the whole of France and the whole of Europe. Now the whole world knows that the Marchioness Louis is an Asian woman.
But their past has never been exposed.
Others were not surprised by Huangfu Weir's previous love affairs because he was also famous for being serious about his work, so no one dared to have an opinion.
As soon as James revealed it, everyone started talking.
Dongfang Nan, who was next to Huangfu Weir, couldn't help but shed a drop of sweat. He coughed lightly, "Well, I can testify that he did not delay his official duties. I was also in China when he met Yi An'an. The two hit it off and hit it off because
Miss Ianian joined Luisty and she wanted to research a new type of perfume. Therefore, for the sake of the company, Will accompanied her to explore and it took a while..."
Miss An An, please forgive me for being panicked, I am also doing it for your husband's reputation. Dongfang Nan thought to himself.
Huangfu Weir smiled calmly, as if this was the truth.
Discussion started again below...
James tilted his head evilly and looked at Dongfang Nan, "This is our family meeting. May I ask...in what name are you sitting here? Shouldn't you retreat wisely?"
Dongfang Nan swallowed and gave Huangfu Weir a look: I can't help you anymore, so take care of yourself!
"No, no need." Huangfu Weir said calmly, "This is not a meeting related to family interests, it is just a discussion meeting, your accusation meeting. Mr. Dongfang is a good friend of mine, so he can stay in the meeting in the name of a witness.
James, do you still have any opinions?"
James raised his eyebrows, and after a moment, he nodded as a compromise.
"So, the fact that I had a half-year vacation and then met your sister-in-law is your topic this time?"
"Of course not, I'm not interested in your romantic past."
"So, let's continue?" Huangfu Will made a gesture of invitation.
James raised the corner of his mouth, turned around lazily, and suddenly asked the person behind him very suspiciously, "I just want to know...where is my sister-in-law? It has been three months since you got married, and she has been missing for more than half a year.
There’s no news either, isn’t it too weird for a housewife to go missing?”
After he finished speaking, the surrounding atmosphere gradually became quiet, and everyone could hear something was wrong in his words.
One of the elders in the audience said, "Will has already stated that An An is not feeling well and is recuperating overseas. James, do you doubt Will's words by saying this?"
Huangfu Will slowly leaned on the back and crossed his hands, as if he knew what James wanted to make a fuss about.
Dongfang Nan also realized it and glanced at him, but the other person's expression was stern and he didn't speak...
Ahead, James seemed to have understood everything, and turned to the elder, "Uncle Ryan, it's just my brother's unilateral statement that my sister-in-law is recuperating in another place. Of course I don't believe it. I think my brother is hiding something very serious from us."
The elder looked at Huangfu Weir and saw that the other party did not explain for a while, so he couldn't help but become suspicious.
"James, go down."
"Okay, Uncle Ryan." He bowed politely to his elders, turned around, and looked around at the family members sitting around the lobby unhurriedly, "As you all know, there is a prerequisite for the head of the family to inherit the title, and that is
You must be married, and the marriage partner must be approved by the previous head of the family. At that time, my father was seriously ill. I think my brother was just to prevent me from being anxious, so he randomly married a woman, and then when everything was settled, that woman had nothing to do with him, so
I think the so-called 'sister-in-law' is also fake, right? Right, brother?"
Huangfu Weir's eyes turned cold and he stared at his younger brother who regarded him as his enemy for a long time. "You'd better be more respectful. I'm the head of the family. If you go too far, I have the right to deal with you."
"Okay, brother, before you deal with me, please argue for yourself!" James shrugged. He looked at the tribesmen around him who were starting to become suspicious, with a look of pleasure and a look of futility.
Of course, it wouldn't be him who would take into account the punishment...
Huangfu Weijun's face darkened, and it could be seen from his heavy breathing that he was a little angry.
Although the two elders are not the heads of the family, they have the power of advisors to the entire family. They lowered their heads to discuss and then asked the emperor Will, "Will, please answer the questions raised by James. We need real answers."
"Of course not, uncles." He said immediately, "An'an is indeed recuperating abroad, and we love each other very much."
"Then, can you tell me about that 'sister-in-law'..." James pressed the word tightly, as if the name was already unjust, "Where is she recuperating? She is the mistress of the Lewis family. She is not feeling well, so we should
visit."
The two elders nodded and looked at Huangfu Will again.
But Huangfu Will immediately postponed, "Sorry, I can't tell you where she is, she needs to be quiet."
"Then, get 'sister-in-law' on the phone and let us hear her voice?"
"This is no longer necessary."
Huangfu Weir raised his lips disdainfully, but after understanding the other party's intention, he became calm.
The diamond-polished men's watch on his wrist was ticking step by step. He looked at the time, and the mirror of the watch reflected his beautiful purple eyes. He thought of the spring when he first met Yi An'an, when he met her in Yi's garden.
when……
After that, a lot of things really happened.
"Okay." In the front, James opened his hands, stepped on the luxurious black gold-trimmed carpet and looked around everyone, "Now you hear it? He definitely doesn't dare to let that woman come out. Because he has a guilty conscience."
"Will, if you don't explain, we will have someone investigate you." The two gray-bearded elders had already begun to speak harshly.
The eyes around him were also staring at him, especially some ladies, who were already whispering something.
Huangfu Will pursed his lips into a straight line and stared at James coldly, as if he was holding back something.
Dongfang Nan had no choice but to stand up and speak again, "Don't get excited, everyone. There must be a reason why Will refused to say it. You have to trust him. Miss Yi'an is from China's Yi family. With such a clear family background, what can you do?
Where are the doubtful ones?”
"Isn't this simple?" James chuckled, with a sense of mystery and disdain in his smile, "That can only mean that there is a cooperative relationship between them, and they have colluded with the Yi family to have a fake marriage. This is just like him.
It is no different for a woman to marry and deceive the entire Louis family."
After speaking, he put one hand on his chest and saluted the elder, "Two beloved uncles, maybe my brother's original intention was just to prevent me, but he did something to deceive us. This is unforgivable. Please be wise in your opinions.
Justice, let’s investigate this matter thoroughly!”
Huangfu Weir snorted and narrowed his eyes slightly: "It seems that there is a backup plan. I am really well prepared!"
James looked at him with the same expression, his eyes seeming to answer: That's natural.
The two smiled softly and looked at each other, their eyes sparkling with lightning - if there is anything that these two brothers are most similar to, it is Chengfu's thoughts, the unbridled expression between raised lips and a smile!
The old man named Ryan glanced at Huangfu Will, and then said to James, "We will have Will's matter investigated thoroughly as soon as possible. So, James, is this what you want to say?"
"Oh!" He suddenly seemed to remember something and waved to the crowd present, "Baby, come here!"
At this time, a beautiful woman with chestnut hair walked up from the crowd. She was gorgeously dressed and had a cold and proud face.
She took advantage of the situation and leaned into James's arms. She looked very good walking with this unruly man in sexy black clothes...
James smiled at her, hugged her and said to Elder Laing, "Uncle, this is Liz, we have already obtained the marriage certificate."
The crowd was immediately shocked and noisy for a while; except for Huangfu Weir, who smiled and said nothing, everyone including Dongfang Nan was stunned.
Although James is not an heir, he is still a member of the Lewis family. How could he get married so casually?
"Are you kidding?" Ryan's wife, who remained silent for the whole time, frowned, "Why didn't you notify us of such a big thing?"
"I'm planning to give everyone a surprise. We just got the certificate and haven't made it public yet. We are planning to come back and hold the wedding. I think although everyone is surprised, it doesn't violate the family rules, right?"
He spread his hands and smiled candidly, calculating every detail.
"...Indeed." Ryan could only nod in shame.
"Actually, we have another surprise for everyone." He winked at the woman in his arms. The chestnut-haired woman immediately took out a certificate and a hospital certificate from her leather bag. She was waiting around.
The maid immediately stepped forward to take the things, and then sent them to the elder in charge...
"Liz is pregnant, one month after we got the certificate!!" James' evil voice echoed beautifully in the vast lobby, "The Louis family inheritance regulations stipulate that if the legitimate son of the lineage is in a legal marriage,
Later, if the first one becomes pregnant with an heir, regardless of whether he is the original heir or not, he will have the second right of inheritance!!" He turned around and looked at the elder in charge, "Two uncles, are you right?"
The two elders raised their heads from the documents and hospital report in shock, and slowly looked at each other, their expressions were not very good.
James is undoubtedly fully prepared.
However, the threat of the second inheritance rights to the original heir is too great, so the heirs in the family history have always prepared to have children as soon as they get married, in order to prevent the emergence of second heirs...
Because as long as something happens to the heir, everything will fall into the hands of the second heir.
Especially someone with a dangerous personality like James... The two elders were worried about Huangfu Will.
But Huangfu Weir was sitting leisurely in his seat, not looking moved at all. He was playing with his mobile phone in his slender hand, half listening but not listening to what was said, and half smiling but not smiling at the corners of his lips!
Regarding his reaction, the scene exploded again.
But James frowned. He was originally confident...
It is said that the person who knows you best is your enemy. The two of them have been rivals for a while. James's sixth sense was strange to Huangfu Will's reaction!
At this time, the elder had already called the lawyers and medical staff of the Lewis family. While the two men had different thoughts, they checked the authenticity of the documents and the pregnancy certificate on the spot.
Half an hour later, the lawyers and medical staff nodded and left.
Ryan cheered up and said to all the family members in the hall, "Everyone, be quiet. The lawyer has already done the appraisal, and the doctor also checked Miss Liz's pulse on the spot. James' words are true!"
The woman named Liz had a happy face and leaned her head on James' broad shoulder.
But James just stared at Huangfu Will with a serious face.
"I am announcing," the elder's majestic voice resounded from the first corner of the hall, "James Lewis, the second son of the Lewis family, has become the second heir of the family. His second inheritance rights will take effect immediately, and no one else may have any objections."
!!”
"Then I would like to ask the two uncles, regarding my brother, there are doubts about his marriage, how will he deal with his problem." Although he knew that the other party might have other plans, the plan had reached this point, and James had no choice but to give it a try.
The elder was helpless. Although he was more partial to Huangfu Will, under the coercion of the entire Lewis family and James, he had no choice but to ask again, "Will, if you don't come up with valid evidence to clarify, we will have to stop all your duties.
The second heir, James, will temporarily act as your agent until your matter is thoroughly investigated."
Huangfu Weir finally raised his head, but shook his head, "No need, those who are clean will be clean themselves. I don't like to explain, I will speak with facts."
There was a lot of discussion again...
Something is so wrong!
James gently shook off the woman leaning on his shoulder and waved for his bodyguard and personal assistant to come over——
She is a tall, dark-haired and heroic woman!
She took a few steps forward and asked, "Master?"
There is an invisible crisis in the situation, which seems to be beneficial to him, and he always feels that the other party is confident. Looking at Huangfu Weir's calmness, this feeling is even more obvious.
James said to her in a deep voice, "Please pay attention to the outside. If anyone comes in, stop them first."
As soon as his assistant nodded, he saw Huangfu Will, who had been silent, stand up with his hands behind his hands. He looked at the time on his watch, and his handsome face showed the strong confidence that he was in control of everything, "Okay James, it's too late.
You can't take away my power, so you don't have to bother."
James's face changed immediately. Before everyone knew the current situation, he suddenly realized a very bad situation.
The elders in the audience were wondering whether they should immediately order the removal of Huangfu Will's authority. When they heard what they said, they couldn't help but question, "Will, what you said is..."
The words are still unfinished——
The head butler in suits and ties hurriedly came to the hall and saluted the elder and his wife, "Mr. Lane, Mrs. Lane, there is news from outside the castle that the young lady is back."
There was an uproar all around, and the ladies covered their mouths with expressions of disbelief.
Huangfu Will walked out from the main seat and walked towards James who planned this incident, "Dear brother, didn't you realize that EJ is not here today? That's because I told him to pick up your sister-in-law yesterday."
……◇May is Gone with the Wind◇◇"President's Gold Medal Sweet Wife" Extra ◇◇Novel Reading◇...
Outside the castle, the motorcade moved slowly and finally stopped in front of the six-meter-high steel iron gate.
In the rain and fog, people in a dozen bodyguard cars behind quickly got out of the car. EJ opened his umbrella and came to the door of the first car, "Madam, is it okay?"
With support from Laura, Ian got out of the car with difficulty.
She didn't look good. Huangfu Weir had already dialed her mobile phone, but he didn't speak. He just relayed the situation on the other end of the phone...
"It doesn't matter." She shook her head, "Go in, if you wait any longer, Will may be in trouble."
At this time, the door has slowly opened, and the security guard in the guard room is talking on the phone inside the castle, passing on the news of the young lady's return.
The courtyard in front of the castle is very vast, and there will be cars waiting inside immediately.
When Yi An'an appeared in front of everyone tiredly with a big belly, everyone's eyes were all on her bulging belly, their eyes widened, and there were only sounds of surprise for a moment...
She held her belly and looked at her husband, with a hard and gratified smile on her face, "Will..."
"An'an!"
Huangfu Will immediately rushed over and hugged her in his arms.
He buried his face on her shoulder, unable to see his emotions, breathing heavily and nervously.
They haven't seen each other for half a year...
For a pair of lovers, the longing and worry are self-evident.
Suddenly, he held her face again and looked at it excitedly, not missing any detail.
Because of her pregnancy, she gained weight and her face became rounder, but she looked more beautiful, with a very gentle and sacred maternal love. But her face was very tired, and there were beads of sweat...
"Is it too hard on the road?"
He kissed her lips hard.
"I'm sorry, I should pick you up in person..."
He kissed his lower lip hard again.
"Please forgive me, I promise we will never be separated again..."
A passionate kiss was pressed on Ian'an's lips again, who had no time to speak.
When they were caught in the reunion kiss, the people of the Louis family were talking a lot, "The young lady has a baby too? God, this is so shocking!" "Why didn't Will make such important news public?"
I thought James would succeed this time. To be honest, I don't really want him to be the head of the family." "Oh God, yes, he is too dangerous..."
The expressions of the two elders also relaxed, and they were also whispering and discussing something.
James' eyes slowly moved to Ian's bulging belly. After his expression changed, he hummed softly, and the corners of his sexy lips moved unyieldingly.
When everyone's expressions were different, Laura, who accompanied Ian'an in, naturally walked to Dongfang Nan and looked at the happy couple with him, who were about to become friends of their parents.
Their hands touched inadvertently beside each other.
Laura was startled and numb.
Dongfang Nan seemed to feel it too, and became embarrassed and flustered. As a result, his hands touched each other again.
Each other's body temperature conveys a small throbbing.
All along, the two of them have been in a state where neither one wants to take the first step, fearing that the other will attack them with poisonous words.
Finally, Dongfang Nan couldn't hold it any longer, grabbed her soft hand and squeezed it tightly.
Laura blushed and moved closer to him, hurriedly talking to resolve the tension, "You... are you and Will okay?"
"Well..." Dongfang Nan coughed lightly, "If you don't come here tonight, I think he will be deprived of his power by the old man and the others."
"Is it James' fault again?"
"It's not surprising, it's not the first time he has done something like this."
"oh……"
This little act, which is like having an affair in front of everyone, has a heart-pounding excitement and secret joy.
When everyone's eyes were on the returning lady, they stood close together, enjoying the excitement that only the two of them knew.
Feeling him holding her tightly, Laura's face burned extremely hard, "Well, An An actually misses Will very much."
Dongfang Nan also said, "I know, Will misses her too."
"..."
"..."
Ej, who was standing next to him, turned sideways and covered up the numbness in his heart with a serious expression: You two men and women who are still in the second grade of middle school can just express your thoughts, not in the name of master and wife.
Ahead, Ian'an gently removed him from her lips, "Will, don't get excited, I'm fine." She looked at his handsome face that was becoming more mature and steady, but her hair could not hide the trembling worry.
With purple eyes, she put his hand on her belly and said, "I'm fine and the baby is fine too. You don't have to worry."
Huangfu Weir reluctantly moved his gaze to her round belly.
Under the large white and pink maternity skirt, her belly was a bit exaggerated, as if it was about to exceed the load of her body.
After looking at it for a long time, he finally nodded and smiled happily, "Well, it looks like the baby is very strong. You were only three months old when you left, so you can't tell it at all.
Is it almost the due date?" Huangfu Will thought of something and raised his eyes again to ask.
Sweat was slowly seeping out of Yi An'an's fair and beautiful face...it seemed like she was working very hard.
"..." She just nodded invisibly, but did not answer. Instead, she asked him, "Am I coming back late? It seemed like the phone call just now said that my leaving made it difficult for you, right?"
Huangfu Weir didn't answer, he just stared at her face closely, not missing any subtle expression on her face.
She looked very uncomfortable...
"Is it already..." He locked his eyes on her belly anxiously, and his eyes trembled again.
But Ian'an just forced out a smile, patted his hand gently, and Jier turned to look at Louis' huge aristocratic group in the lobby.
If it were in the past, when faced with these people at the top of society, she would choose to avoid them and never offend them.
But now, she is Will's wife and the matron of this family; she has to face it and has the responsibility to help Will deal with this big family.
"James?" Ian'an called to the man who was pulling the chestnut-haired woman to leave, "It seems not very polite to leave without saying hello when you see my sister-in-law. Isn't this the behavior a gentleman should have?"
James carried her on his back and made several expression changes on his face.
Finally, he turned around, opened his hands and smiled coolly, "Of course not, I just want to find a chair to sit on."
Huangfu Will felt uneasy as he watched Ian's slowly walking over while holding his belly. He turned to look at Laura, who understood his question and nodded vigorously.
"An'an." He hurriedly walked over to support her, "Listen to me and rest first."
"Will, this is not okay." Ian'an said to him, "Although I am your wife, I must have been away for a while. It happens that everyone is here tonight. I should give them an explanation."
The men and women around were looking at An An quietly, no one dared to say anything.
After all, as a daughter-in-law who was recognized by the old Marquis without even joining the family, and as the chief perfumer who has created brilliant achievements for Louisti, this young lady has abilities and intelligence that cannot be underestimated. Although she has been married for less than a year, she is a foreigner.
A woman, but no one dares to despise her!!
After all, a rebellious James would always call her "sister-in-law" even in public.
Ian'an didn't pay attention to the others first. After calling James, he slowly greeted the two elders, "Uncles, I'm back, how are you?"
Ryan and his wife nodded. Seeing that she was tugging at the hem of her skirt to perform the meeting etiquette of elders, they hurriedly tried to stop her, "No need, your health is urgent. An'an, please explain your situation to everyone quickly? Why have you been here for most of half a year?"
No news?"
With the support of the maid, Ian'an nodded, and then looked at everyone, "Dear relatives and friends, good evening. I am not physically able to talk to you one by one, so I am lucky that everyone is here."
Here.”
She smiled gracefully, with a noble, beautiful and generous look on her gentle face.
Temperament is more important than appearance, and what affects temperament is mentality; she knows that there is no need for her to be humble, she is the one who needs to be respected in front of her, and if she cannot hold up the situation, she will embarrass Will!
The ladies in formal attire around her nodded slightly, and the men put their hands on their chests and saluted her at the same time:
"Good evening, madam."
With the support of Huangfu Will and the maid, Ian'an took a step or two closer to the crowd, "Will has sent me the situation here over the phone, and I will answer your questions clearly. First of all,
Will and I love each other very much. Our marriage is certified, protected, and bound by the law, and is blessed by God. My father passed away after our marriage. Likewise, my daughter-in-law is recognized by my father. I am the matchmaker of Wil Ming.
My wife is the mistress of the Louis family, so no one can use unfounded reasons to speculate on the authenticity of our marriage, and no one has the qualifications or right to deny my existence!
No matter my age or where I come from, my identity and status have determined my importance in this family. As long as my marriage to Will is still there and I am still the matriarch of this family, the people of the Lewis family will
They have no right to overstep me or question me. Unless Will, as the head of the family, breaks off our engagement with me, others have no right to disrespect me."
The passage is sonorous and powerful. Although the sound is crisp, it never loses its due power and majesty!
She is naturally smart and naturally knows how to gain a foothold in this big family.
The whole place was silent, no one dared to make a sound.
Only James still had that unruly and meaningless expression.
Ian'an turned around and asked Huangfu Will next to him, "My dear, will you settle the marriage with me?"
Huangfu Will smiled fondly, took her hand and kissed her, "Baby, of course this is impossible."
