Stanley poked Sophia, who was dumbfounded. “Hehe! You must be stunned! I’m sure you didn’t expect my uncle to be talented, eh? Let me tell you this—my uncle’s stage name was given by his mother. Believe it or not, he also used to be in the special forces!

He was even the winner in the fighting competition organized by the army! How amazing is that! But after that, he switched to the army with literary pursuits and retired after that. Alas, for someone who is as talented as Uncle Michael, he will shine no matter which field he is in!”

Sophia was even more dumbfounded upon hearing that.

Winner in the army? Army with literary pursuits? Idol of the entire nation? A psychopath who sends dirty jokes to me?

Which one of them is my husband?

What the hell has Michael experienced in the past?

While looking at the man whom everyone idolized as he shone brightly in the spotlight, it was the first time that she felt the distance between them had been stretched beyond dimensions.

He was a mirage that one could see but could never hold and a reflection of the moon in the water that one could not obtain. Even though her name was next to his on the same marriage certificate, the distance between them could not be shortened and would only grow wider apart instead.

The performance of Don Giovanni had pushed the atmosphere of the banquet to the climax, making the Harper Family even more arrogant.

A look of joy flashed on Michael’s face as he looked at Joel and asked from afar, “Joel, how was the performance today?”

 

Joel smiled coldly at him while rising to his full height. “I’m quite busy with the military, so I’ll take my leave now.”

With that, he quickly walked out of the banquet with a few deputy officers behind him.

Richard quickly escorted him. “General, why are you leaving so early? The banquet is only about to begin. Why don’t you stay for a while longer?”

Even though he was trying to ask Joel to stay longer, his actions did not prove as such, so he quickly helped to press on the elevator button.

Joel did not have a friendly facial expression while he kept quiet, not speaking a word to Richard from the beginning to the end. His absence did not have an impact on the atmosphere of the banquet. A group of experienced opera singers gathered around Michael to have a discussion about singing, not allowing others to join the conversation.
