Riches in Disguise

Chapter 360

My parents had also met through a blind date, aimed at a marriage that would benefit both families.

The difference was that my grandparents, on both sides, were all wonderful people. Even though they arranged marriages for the sake of their family's interests, they still prioritized looks and good character in their choice of partners.

My mother was beautiful and elegant. She was once crowned Miss World and won a diving championship at the World Championships. She was also skilled in horseback riding and archery, and her equestrian business flourished nationwide. These were all achievements she earned by the time she was 25.

My father was more average in appearance but was tall and had long legs. He studied abroad for three years and held an impressive degree. He was an honorary professor at a Vena League university and, in business, was already a billionaire by age 23.

The two of them were a perfect match from the start. I heard that when they first met, they immediately exchanged flirtatious glances. By the next day, they eagerly met up and headed to a hotel.

I had never once seen my parents have a serious falling out. Even when they argued, they always made up within a few hours.

My father loved my mother deeply. When my mother struggled through labor, shedding many tears, he was so heartbroken that, after I was born, he chose to undergo a vasectomy.

My mother was so moved that she willingly stepped back from her business ventures to become my father's supportive wife and focused on him. Our family was a model of harmony and happiness, a great example of a wealthy family.

So, when I heard about other struggling families, I couldn't help but feel sympathy. Gabrielle and I arrived at the room on the 12th floor. She then led me to the faulty faucet. I turned it on and immediately became speechless.
