Sylvester was the only one who understood L''s gesture. He knew it was a tribal ritual.


    Sylvester''s eyes glittered with satisfaction. Just as he was about to pull her up, he saw Richael, who was pregnant, quickly reaching out to help L stand up from the ground. "Good girl, what are you doing?"


    L said, "This is my family''s tradition."


    Sylvester pulled L into his arms, asserting his dominance and making her belong to him alone.


    Leaning close to L''s ear, his chest pressed against her back, he said in a husky voice, "Darling, is there any tribal ritual you should have for your husband in your tribe? Is the one you showed to the elders just now the only one?"


    If one listened closely, there was a distinct hint of jealousy in his voice.


    L''s lips twitched. She thought, ''Men are easy to get jealous.''


    L ignored him, but Sylvester wasn''t annoyed. He continued to pester her and even began toin, "You are not the kind who a bracelet can buy, are you? Honey, your taste is getting worse. I have given you everything, but I haven''t received any special treatment from you."


    ...


    L thought, ''Sylvester must be blind. I had given him a lot of special treatment, hadn''t I?''


    "Tell me right now. Is there really one?"


    L pushed Sylvester and whispered, "Elvis and Richael are watching."


    "I didn''t see anything," said Richael and Elvis in unison.


    L blushed and was lost for words.


    "Tell me. If you don''t... well, you know what will happen."


    L took a deep breath and whispered again, "I''ll tell you tonight, okay?"


    Sylvester was happy to hear that and reached out to pinch her soft face. "Good, I''ll wait. Honey, don''t disappoint me."


    L clenched her hand and stayed silent.


    They were happy and full of warmth.


    The members of the Stewart family, however, knelt on the ground, their faces full of tears.


    Jyri was also shrewd. Having worked in the business world for so many years, he understood that if he wanted Sylvester to drop the charges, he needed to obtain forgiveness from L.


    Jyri knelt in front of L, his face full of sorrow. "Miss, the Stewart family begs for your forgiveness. My son did something wrong and deserved to be in jail, but the entire Stewart family shouldn''t be implicated. Please spare the entire Stewart family."


    Victor had been taken to the police station. Jyri knew that the evidence must have beenid out in front of the police. Otherwise, the police wouldn''t detain Victor. Jyri knew well that it would be a loss to his family if Victor''s mistake implicated the family.


    Moreover, if the Stewart family fell, his son would never have a chance to get out in his lifetime.


    The entire Stewart family would be finished.


    In the capital world, wealth and power mattered more. The Stewart family couldn''tpete with the Sylvesters in these aspects.


    Being ignored, Jyri gritted his teeth and took out a nk check. "I know Mr. Gomez doesn''tck money. This nk check is a gift for you, Miss. I hope you can go easy on us. If thew firm drops thewsuit, the Stewart family will offer even more generous rewards."


    L leaned on Sylvester''s shoulder, clinging to him, "Sylvester, he looked down on me."


    Sylvester held the empty check and sneered, "You are really generous, but that is not enough to please my girlfriend."


    Jyri was truly panicked and started kowtowing.


    He knocked his head so hard that his forehead started bleeding.


    Jyri was indeed a tough guy.
