No one knew who shouted it, and immediately all eyes turned to the entrance. The sound of cameras snapping echoed in the air, filling the venue with a palpable sense of excitement.
Today was the tenth anniversary celebration of Sean and Gloria’s wedding.
The Hall family, a centuries–old aristocratic lineage, was one of the most powerful and prestigious families in the capital.
As for Sean himself, he was a well–known, highly esteemed young man across the country.
He was extremely intelligent, charming, elegant, and a man of great fortune who dotes on his wife beyond measure.
Today’s anniversary event was also an auction, a gift from Sean to Gloria for their tenth wedding anniversary.
Guests included global political and business elites–either incredibly wealthy or of high rank, most of whom were seen only in the news.
For the journalists invited, they felt like they were blessed with good fortune.
As soon as they saw Gloria enter, their eyes lit up, and they rushed to start interviews.
“Mrs. Hall, today Mr. Hall has spared no expense to create this anniversary event for you. How do you feel right now? Can you share your thoughts with us?”
“Mrs. Hall, people say marriages often face the seven–year itch, but you and Mr. Hall have been together for ten years and still seem as in love as ever. What’s your secret?”
“Mrs. Hall, we heard your dress today was custom–designed by Mr. Hall, costing three hundred million. Is that true?”

Gloria stood at the end of the runway, looking down at everyone with a cold expression.
But everyone assumed she was just shy and couldn’t speak.
At that moment, Sean walked toward her from the other end of the stage, wearing a finely
tailored black suit.
He held a large bouquet of magic red roses, which had been airlifted from South America
that morning. The dewdrops on the petals hadn’t even dried.
With a perfect smile on his face, he made a quieting gesture to the surrounding reporters.
“Shh,” he said without a trace of arrogance. “Everyone, please stop asking. You’re scaring
my little baby.”
This display of affection sent the reporters into a frenzy.
Sean was never shy about calling Gloria “baby,” or “darling.

One reporter couldn’t help but say, “Mr. Hall and Mrs. Hall should be the marriage ambassadors, to help save our country’s declining marriage rates.”
“Exactly! Exactly!” the others chimed in.
Gloria numbly listened to the adoring comments, her eyes blank as she looked at the man
before her.
She didn’t feel happy at all.
In fact, she found him disgusting.
Sean handed her the flowers and naturally took her hand. Noticing the mark on her wrist, he furrowed his brow lightly. “How did you get hurt? Didn’t you wear the watch I gave
you?”

Gloria forced a smile. “I forgot. I’ll wear it next time.”
She still wore a cold expression, though her makeup was impeccably done, giving her a regal, yet not unapproachable, appearance.
The two walked up to the stage, where the host, Luke, from the national TV station, was already waiting.
After the opening remarks, Luke asked the question everyone was curious about.
“Mr. Hall, you and Mrs. Hall have such a deep bond. We all want to know–when did you two get together? Mrs. Hall is only thirty, yet you’ve been married for ten years!”
Sean, frequently featured on the front pages of financial news, was well–accustomed to
interviews.
He held his wife’s hand tightly, smiling with elegance and warmth. “Yes, that’s right. As soon as Gloria reached the legal age for marriage, she married me. So today is not only our
tenth wedding anniversary, but also Gloria’s thirtieth birthday.
We grew up together. I’ve been pursuing her since I was sixteen, and it wasn’t until I was
twenty–three that she finally agreed to be with me.”
The host, aiming to lighten the mood, jokingly asked Gloria, “Mrs. Hall, can you tell us why
you were so hard to win over?”
Gloria cast a cold glance toward a young actress in the audience, who was wearing a
low–cut dress, revealing a glimpse of her chest.
On her collarbone, there was a faint bite mark.
If one didn’t look closely, it would have been hard to notice.
Gloria withdrew her gaze and gave a vague reply, “Because I don’t believe in love.”
Everyone in the room automatically assumed she meant that she hadn’t believed in love when Sean was courting her.

The host, with a knowing smile, added, “But you believed in it later, and that’s why you
married Mr. Hall.”
Gloria didn’t respond.
The host, sensing a brief awkwardness, quickly continued, “As we all know, Mr. Hall built a luxury museum for Mrs. Hall, housing world–renowned designer shoes, hats, bags, and rare
items.
Mrs. Hall loves lychees, so Mr. Hall created a temperature–controlled lychee orchard in the
dry city of B city. And to ensure Mrs. Hall doesn’t get overheated from eating too many
lychees, he hired a world–renowned biological team to create special medicine for her.
Mr. Hall has said many times that the purpose of his life is Mrs. Hall, and all his wealth is
under her name. He often shows off his wedding ring in front of the cameras. He even
arranged tonight’s auction as a gift for her…”
Before he could finish, the entire room burst into applause.
