Chase Sullivan was an orphan who beca independent at a young age, and once by chance he t little Isabelle Willow, who was only three at the ti, on the street.
Back then, little Isabelle was thin and small, she walked up to him and said, "Big brother, I haven’t eaten for a long ti, can you share a stead bun with ?"
At that ti he had two stead buns in his hand, and he generously gave her one.
Little Isabelle took the stead bun, bowed to him, and in a soft, polite voice said, "Thank you, big brother."
He thought she would eat the bun herself, but little Isabelle just ran to her mother and gave the bun to her.
Her mother imdiately ate the bun without leaving any for little Isabelle.
At that ti, little Isabelle and her mother had been blacklisted by Mrs. Willow, and the City of Aethelgard had no place for them; they could only sleep on the streets.
That area had many hooligans, and although Isabelle was very young, her small face already had the budding beauty of a future beauty; so unscrupulous n would tease her and take the opportunity to touch her face.
So he took Isabelle and her mother in; although his house was shabby, it provided the mother and daughter with a place to stay.
Little Isabelle was very grateful to him and always called him her brother.
Soon, he learned about Isabelle’s background, because the Willow family’s heiress, Zelda Willow, was diagnosed with an illness and needed to swap lives with Isabelle.
That day, little Isabelle left him to go to the Willow family, becoming Zelda’s shadow, while her mother was admitted to the hospital with a serious illness needing a lot of money, almost like a bottomless pit.
Such a young girl had to bear everything prematurely, but she was neither timid nor confused; she remained quiet and calmly bid farewell to him, "Big brother, I have to leave, go live in a big house, I’ll be very well, big brother, don’t co to find or say you know , I don’t want to be a burden to you, fearing you might be in danger, big brother, thank you, I’ll rember you for my entire life."
She bowed to him again and then left.
Later, he found a package at ho, opened it, and it was full of money that Isabelle got from the Willow family, along with her handwriting: big brother, we should all be doing well.
He knew that Isabelle had always rembered his kindness, although he wasn’t well-off himself; she sent money to him, supporting all of his pride and dignity in the gentlest way.
Chase Sullivan knew he had t the best girl in this world.
It was also that day Chase Sullivan vowed to strive and improve, wanting to beco rich and beco an elite in the future.
From a young age, he had a talent for painting, but it required substantial investnt; he used the money Isabelle left him to find the best teacher and started delving into painting.
In the blink of an eye, many years passed, and Chase Sullivan gradually learned that the Willow family had a daughter making waves in Aethelgard, as Isabelle Willow grew up there, becoming the brightest star in the City of Aethelgard.
At that ti, he often secretly went to the Willow family’s door or stood at the corner outside her school to spy on her; she had beco Zelda Willow, always having a special car service for transportation.
Her youthful face had matured into a cool and stunning beauty; she liked wearing white dresses, holding several books in her arms, chased by countless boys.
This included him; he fell in love with her a long ti ago.
But she was too excellent, and as hard as he tried to chase her, he couldn’t catch up.
At tis, he pessimistically wondered if maybe she would soon be courted by so wealthy young man and she would belong to soone else.
Actually, he had ntally prepared himself for this outco, but he didn’t expect that day to co so quickly, that the man would arrive so magnificently and strong.
It was... Jude Crawford!
The first ti Chase Sullivan heard of Jude Crawford was in a business and finance report; the firstborn son of the elite Crawford family in Aethelgard, Jude Crawford launched his first company, becoming the CEO, ascending as the leading figure in the business world of Aethelgard. Later on, he dominated that era’s financial news, in the newspapers, on the Forbes rich list, in the list of n that every socialite and heiress wanted to marry, his na was everywhere.
Jude Crawford represented an era in the business world.
Chase Sullivan never imagined his life, or Isabelle Willow’s life, would have any connection with this man, as the Crawford family was untouchable for them; Jude Crawford was up there in the sky, far too distant from them.
But one day, he suddenly heard that the Crawford and Willow families had set a wedding date, Isabelle Willow was going to marry Jude Crawford!
This news was like a thunderclap from a clear sky, Chase Sullivan took a long ti to recover from it.
He had thought Isabelle Willow would marry another man soday, but he never imagined Isabelle Willow would marry Jude Crawford, would marry that... legendary first aristocrat.
She was going to marry into the Crawford family and beco Mrs. Crawford.
Chase Sullivan could not accept it, so that day he secretly went to the Willow house and hid in a dark corner at the gate, and for the first ti truly saw Jude Crawford in person.
The wedding was very near, Jude Crawford went to the Willow house for dinner, the whole house was brightly lit, a world-class Rolls-Royce luxury car was parked on the lawn, Jude Crawford wore a classic white shirt and black trousers, the fabric, without the slightest crease, bespoke his elegance and sophistication as a mber of the elite, his dominant aura showcasing extraordinary vibes, inspiring admiration from others.
Chase Sullivan just stood in a corner, when he saw Jude Crawford, he deeply understood the gap between him and Jude Crawford, so people are born as the favored by heaven, which cannot be matched with acquired effort.
Jude Crawford was so superior, so brilliant, so dazzling.
At that ti, Mr. Willow was standing beside Jude Crawford, saying sothing pleasing and flattering, while Jude Crawford listened indifferently, although his gaze was directed sowhere else.
Chase Sullivan followed Jude Crawford’s gaze and saw that Isabelle was there too, that night Isabelle wore a white furry coat, standing obediently next to a Christmas tree, her head bowed, seemingly looking at her own toes.
At that ti, Jude Crawford looked at Isabelle quietly, his handso eyes softened slightly with a faint smile, gazing at her every so often.
Mr. Willow, being experienced, ended the conversation quickly and let Isabelle send Jude Crawford off.
So Jude Crawford and Isabelle walked together.
At that ti, Chase Sullivan followed them, Jude Crawford and Isabelle walked in front, they strolled, Isabelle seed to have just gotten to know Jude Crawford and accepted that he was going to beco her husband, she appeared particularly obedient and gentle.
The two didn’t speak, but Jude Crawford kept one hand in his trousers pocket, and while walking, he took out his large hand, wanting to hold Isabelle’s little hand.
