There was once a beautiful legend about love that says, "If a man brings you to see a sea of
fluorescent cuttlefish, then marry him."
This means to say that if a man puts in effort to bring you some romantic moments, then he's definitely
worth-keeping.
One night, a mature, seductive woman was seen visit Hannah at her apartment. The woman was
known as Black Widow. Seated in front of Hannah, she was spending some time lazily on the sofa,
crossing her legs seductively. Her eyes were painted as dark as the night, which would remind you of
some dangerous nightly creature. Idly, she looked around and said in a measured tone, "What an ill-
fated life! I never imagined that the Song family would be living in such a poor condition after Mr. Song
quit his businesses." Moving her charming eyes on Hannah, the sexy woman asked lazily, "I wonder
why Miss Song invited me here?"
A disdainful glint flashed in Hannah eyes after she heard her words. However, not a sign of contempt
was shown on her face or in her tone. "I was told..." after a pause, Hannah continued, "...you are wary
in selling your things, aren't you?" "It seems you have slowed down and even stopped selling them.
How could a professional drug trafficker like you have such a mishap?" she asked while putting on her
poker face, pointing out her words back at her.
For a long time, Black Widow had engaged in drug trafficking. As a well-known drug trafficker, she
possessed all the qualities fitting for one - ruthlessness, fierceness and sensitiveness. In the
underworld, she was one of the best. So it was quite incredible to hear such news about her. From her
current situation, she had already guessed why she was called the moment she received Hannah's
invitation. Hearing her words, Black Widow paused before asking in an arrogant manner, "Are you
interested in my business, Miss Song? Perhaps, do you want to help me disseminate my things?"
"My grandfather had long cut off his association with such dirty things. Everybody knows that." Hannah
took a sip of coffee in a graceful manner, keeping her poise. She continued, "Not a single person in our
family is allowed to be involved in the drug business, never again. That's a rule set out by my
grandfather and everybody in the circle is fully aware of that too."
With her words, clearly, Hannah was up for something. Black Widow stayed quiet, making no response
at all. She remained patient and waited for her to get to the point.
Noticing that Black Widow was starting to get a hint, Hannah said, "The police are now keeping a close
eye on you. If this situation goes on for three months and your drugs remain stagnant in the
warehouse, I believe you won't be able to pay your dealers in the Golden Triangle. You will go short in
funds." After saying this, she took a pause and continued, "If that happens, you know what will
transpire next. Your name will be blacklisted globally and every drug trafficker in the world will know
about your discredit." "I know you're smart. You do understand what I'm trying to say, don't you?" she
ended calmly.
Hearing her words, Black Widow couldn't understand whether she was trying to help or threaten her.
Dumb-founded, she immediately darkened her face. It was beyond her expectations that Hannah would
speak to her in such a manner. To her, Hannah was nothing but a little girl hiding behind his
grandfather's pants.
"Before you draw your conclusions, it would be best if you would listen before getting mad at me. I'm
not here to deride you or expose your problems, " said Hannah, seeing the darkened expression of the
alluring woman. "I called you because I want to make a deal with you, a deal that will benefit both of us.
Now, are you interested to hear me out?" she ended.
"Oh? Let's talk about it," uttered Black Widow while casting her a curious, haughty look.
From the bottom of her heart, Hannah was nervous, but her fear from defying her grandfather's wish
was far from her desire to get what she longed for. Lowering her eyes to avoid the woman's gaze, she
said, "I'll cover you up, so that you can sell your drugs until you reach Golden Triangle's requirement for
you. And I'll do everything to help you achieve your goal," she ended, sounding fiercer and more
confident than ever. Surprised by her words, Black Widow looked at the young lady in front of her with
eyes full of doubts. Noticing this, Hannah's contempt towards her intensified. She felt like she never
treated her words seriously and was afraid that this meeting would end in vain. "Don't look at me with
that expression. Believe it or not, the Song family still has a network of its own, despite having cleaned
our hands from such filthy industries for so many years now. As the old saying goes, a starved camel is
still bigger than a horse. Our power is not as undermined as you have seen superficially."
Hannah's words reflected the power she held from her family. This made Black Widow sank into
silence. She was fully aware how influential the Song Family was in A City, despite its attempt of
keeping a low profile for the past few years. "If that's the case, how can I be of any help to you, young
miss?" asked the woman drug trafficker.
To be honest, Hannah's promise was too tempting. However, she wasn't afraid whether Hannah's
conditions would go beyond her capabilities. Thanks to Daniel's big mouth, she had already guessed
what it was that she might want in exchange to her tempting promise.
"I don't have the habit of talking big. If you can sell your drugs successfully within three days' time after
receiving them from your provider, then I will let you know what I need you to do for me," Hannah
replied in a commanding tone.
Speechless, Black Widow nodded at Hannah's arrogant words. Her words may be tempting, but in her
heart, she still held a disdainful attitude towards the young lady. 'Who do you think you are? You're just
a little girl living under the protection of your grandfather, ' she thought to herself, not wanting to have a
young girl bossing her around. However, she knew that she needed a little help and Hannah was
indeed a good option. 'Even if your grandfather wants to return and pick up his former power, in this
age, that wouldn't be easy. However, we will continue to pay him respect if he does a good job that will
benefit us. But if he doesn't, no one will remember his former reputation. No matter how hard he tries!'
she further continued in her mind.
'In today's world, only money is the king.' Black Widow ended, sneering Hannah in her heart.
Despite their heated conversation, on the other hand, Molly felt like the luckiest girl in the world that
night. It was indeed a night filled with lots of surprises. A lot of things happened, and they went by so
fast that she doubted whether everything was a dream. From the heart-warming birthday dinner to the
blue diamond ring, and then to the wedding testimony before God, which was so eccentric but
impressive, everything seemed so surreal. And after everything, this romantic moment alone with Brian
filled her heart with so much happiness.
Under the moonlight, Molly stood barefooted on the tranquil beach. This place was close to the church,
far from the noise and commotion in the casino. As an undeveloped area, only a few people would
come during the day and not a single soul could be seen at night. Or probably, it had been made empty
because someone wanted to share this tranquil place alone with his beloved.
Still feeling surreal, Molly stared at the waves by the seaside, which reflected faint blue lights under the
glint. The sparkling lights fluctuated as the tide rose and ebbed. The dim blue lights all moved at the
same time, that they dazzled her eyes.
