She, the second daughter of the Bluen consortium, a figure of envy among the rich second generation. No matter who she mentioned, they were all figures that others flocked towards. However, her boyfriend was getting married, but she was not the bride. She, who had always been so noble and lofty, was cruelly abandoned.
He, the CEO of Valence Group, the intimidating young master of the Horne family and a prime example of the rich second generation. Little did people know, his bride ran away on the day he planned to register for marriage. He too, was cruelly abandoned.
Laughably so, He was her soon-to-be brother-in-law.
Seeing her angry and lonely future brother-in-law, she suddenly jeered, "We both have been abandoned. We would make a perfect pair."
He pursed his lips in silence.
The next day, he took her to the Civil Affairs Office to go through the marriage registration process, having her replace her runaway sister as his bride.

"Julia, I now realize that I have always loved you. Do you know that I think of you all the time? I married her just so I could have a secure footing in the company." Her ex-boyfriend, gripping her hand, whispered this soft confession of his misguided actions in the past.
Before she could react, a strong hand appeared out of nowhere, fiercely grasping her ex-boyfriend's wrist. He cried out in pain, causing a stir among the guests at the wine party.
He stood by her side, one arm draped across her shoulders, gently and passionately smiling while saying, "Wife, tell him, who am I to you?"
Gazing at his handsome appearance, noble aura, and two bodyguards following him, her ex-boyfriend's face quickly drained of color, as if he had just realized something.

"Young master, the young mistress said something strange today." The housekeeper, trailing behind him, was reporting her daily activities.
"What did she say?"
"The young mistress said she wonders if snow flying in June would be beautiful." The housekeeper finished his report and carefully observed his reaction. After all, how could it be possible for there to be falling snow in the scorching heat of June?
Once again, he pursed his lips in silence, then silently went upstairs.
The next day.
As soon as she stepped out of the main house, she was stunned. The sunrise filled the high sky while the expansive courtyard was covered in white snow. It was a vast expanse of white, as if it were midwinter, and countless snowflakes were dancing in the sky. The snowstorm was of extreme beauty.

"Adele is already 22 years old; it is time she faced some challenges," Gian Horne said as he picked up a newspaper and started to read.


"Dad!" Adele immediately protested in annoyance, complaining, "Dad, you don't care about me at all." He only remembers James Horne, that illegitimate son! And I'm well aware Dad once considered funding James Horne's start-up. Why didn't he offer to set up a separate company just for me? It's so unfair! Favoritism!


"This is how I show I care. If I let you idle away your time, you would achieve nothing, and that would be harming you," Gian Horne said helplessly, detecting the lack of understanding in his daughter's tone.


"I don't want to go to work anyway," Adele glared fiercely at Julia Bluen before standing up and stomping out of the room.


"It doesn't matter. What I said will take effect after 9 a.m. tomorrow," Glades Horne's deep and unquestionable voice reached her ears as she was about to reach the doorway.
