Chapter 751
“No, Rhea. You’re the beautiful one!”
Tia blushed and responded.
She really thought that Rhea was Emmanuel’s girlfriend, so she thought that
Emmanuel liked this style of dressing.
Little did she know that Rhea actually thought that women looked more
feminine in dresses. Emmanuel must have preferred looking at Tia that day,
did he?
After all, her attire was more in line with a man’s aesthetic.
Emmanuel, however, was unaware of the thoughts of the two women. He
watched them chat and accompanied them while also signaling Ryder with
his eyes.
Unfortunately, Ryder was still too insecure and didn’t dare to strike up a
conversation.

Just as the four of them were about to enter, a familiar voice suddenly came
from the side!
“Manny, Ryder, you’re here too?”
After following the voice, they saw that it was Roselynn and Jaxton who had
also arrived.
“Roselynn, why are you here too?”
Emmanuel took advantage of Jaxton parking his car and being short-legged.
Jaxton hadn’t come up yet, so he leaned close to Roselynn’s ear and
whispered, “Have you made up with him?”
Roselynn sighed and whispered back, “Just pretend for now. After all, I’m not
going home to sleep with him!”
Emmanuel sympathized with her. Her situation was even worse than his own
back then.
Their mother didn’t allow her to divorce, but staying together without any
feelings was also not an option.
That was why they said one couldn’t make a wrong move in marriage. It was
better to be single than to settle for less. Otherwise, it would be really hard to
end it!
“Hello, everyone!”
Jaxton walked over at this moment and only greeted Rhea and Tia with a
smile.
He completely ignored Roselynn’s relatives.
Roselynn noticed this small detail again. She had originally wanted to give
Jaxton a chance to perform well today and then convince herself to accept
him.
However, that possibility seemed unlikely now!
“Hello. Who is this?” Rhea looked at Roselynn and asked.
Both she and Tia guessed that this might be Roselynn’s man, but why didn’t
they seem compatible?
Their heights didn’t match!
Roselynn didn’t introduce him, mainly because she didn’t want to admit that
this man was her husband.
Jaxton, on the other hand, smiled and said, “I’m Jaxton Oatley. Roselynn’s
man.”
He also didn’t mention that he was her husband, as most men didn’t want to
admit they were married in front of beautiful women. Otherwise, it would
greatly affect their chances with the opposite sex.
Roselynn let out a cold sigh again. It was simply impossible for her to
reconcile with this man!
“Oh. Hello!”
Rhea could also tell that Emmanuel’s family seemed to need a better
relationship with Jaxton. After a casual greeting, she couldn’t be bothered to
continue being polite to him.
Tia was the same. She didn’t have a good impression of Jaxton and said
directly, “Let’s go inside!”

“Let’s go!”
Emmanuel led the way into the venue, with Rhea walking beside him.
Jaxton wanted to take Roselynn’s hand, but she calmly freed herself from his
grasp.
no
Roselynn ran directly to Emmanuel’s other side and chatted with Rhea. After
all, she also wanted to know why Emmanuel would come out to play with this
woman. Wasn’t he afraid of being scolded by Mackenzie later?
Jaxton looked very awkward and didn’t dare to strike up a conversation with
Tia. He could only follow them reluctantly.
As for Ryder, even though it was a great opportunity, his heart was pounding,
and he couldn’t bring himself to strike up a conversation with Tia.
“Ms. Franks, let’s go together!”
In the end, Tommy spoke up in place of his father.
“Sure, Tommy!”
Tia still treated him like a student as she held his hand and entered the
venue.
With her son paving the way; Ryder followed behind Tia and Tommy like a
stone.
Ah! I really don’t deserve to have a wife!
Ryder sighed in his heart. If it weren’t for getting drunk and sleeping with
Abellyn, he probably wouldn’t have been able to marry a wife until now.
After all six of them entered, the atmosphere was not lively.
Chapter 752
Most of the games in this amusement park were suitable for adventurous
young people, such as the Ferris wheel and roller coasters.
Rhea was only 23 years old, so she liked them, but the others were all around
thirty years old, so they could have been more enthusiastic.
In other words, everyone came here today for a purpose, not just to play.
Each person had their own thoughts.
“How about we grab some snacks first?
As the organizer, Rhea took the initiative to suggest.
“Sure. I’ll go buy them.”
Unexpectedly, it was Ryder who volunteered this time. “What snacks do you
all like?”
He wasn’t deliberately trying to impress Tia.
Emmanuel and Roselynn both knew that Ryder was always proactive when it
came to doing work or spending money.
On the other hand, Jaxton had no awareness of this at all!
It wasn’t until Ryder asked for everyone’s preferences that Jaxton offered to
buy hot dogs and milk tea for Roselynn. Roselynn, do you want hot dogs and
drinks? I’ll get them for you!”
“No need. Ryder will get them,” Roselynn replied indifferently.
Jaxton felt quite embarrassed and had a lot of grievances in his heart.
When he pursued Roselynn before, he didn’t have such a humble attitude.
Upon thinking about being suppressed by his wife in the future, he was also
hesitant about whether to continue this marriage.
Unfortunately, despite his grievances, he still desired Roselynn’s body, and he
needed to climb up through this marriage, so he could only endure it!
While he was lost in thought, Ryder had already walked up to the food stall
and ordered various snacks for everyone.
However, when it came to the price, he was stunned!
“Thank you. It’s a total of 32!”
“Why… Why is it so expensive?”
Ryder panicked instinctively. It was his first time coming to an amusement
park, and he had yet to learn about the prices inside, which turned out to be
several times higher than outside!
A few snacks cost over 30!
“That’s the price. Do you want it or not?”
The stall owner became a little impatient.
“Haha. Let me pay!”
Jaxton saw an opportunity and walked over to pay.
“Ah. There’s no need!
Ryder beat him to it and gritted his teeth as he paid for it.
Jaxton clicked his tongue and thought that poor people were just trying to
save their reputations and suffering, but it was also good. He managed to
save 30!
Ryder came back with the food, and everyone had their share except for him,
who hesitated to buy one for himself.
Upon seeing Ryder gulp, Jaxton couldn’t help but laugh.
Roselynn also noticed Jaxton’s subtle expression and thought that he was
not a good person!
“Ryder, take mine! I’m on a diet!”
Roselynn handed her drink and hot dog to Ryder.
Jaxton was shocked, but he quickly handed his portion to Roselynn this time.
“Roselynn, take mine then!”
Everyone’s gaze was on the three of them.
Roselynn rolled her eyes and directly retracted her hand. “Give yours to Ryder,
then. I suddenly don’t feel like dieting anymore.”
Jaxton twitched his lips but still forced a smile as he handed his portion to
Ryder.
“Ah… It’s okay! You guys can eat!”
Ryder waved his hand honestly.
Jaxton already looked down on these lower-class people and couldn’t be
bothered to continue being polite. If Ryder didn’t want it, Ryder could forget it
then.
“Mr. Lowe, if you don’t mind, I’ll split mine with you!”
Tia was finally unable to bear it as she took the initiative and said, “I’m also on
a diet lately-”
“Ah! This-”
Ryder was stunned for a moment as he tried to suppress his inner
excitement, but he couldn’t help but burst into a silly smile!

Chapter 753
“Ryder, what are you still standing there for?”
Roselynn couldn’t bear to watch anymore since Ryder was in his thirties, but
he still acted like a high school student in love. How could he be so shy in
front of the girl he liked? And why was Emmanuel reacting slowly and didn’t
remind Ryder?
”

Roselynn was glad that she had come. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to
seize it even if Tia gave Ryder a chance. She quickly bumped into him with
her shoulder, and Ryder stumbled over to Tia’s side.
Tia also blushed and lowered her head slightly, knowing Emmanuel’s family
wanted her to marry Ryder and become part of the Lowe family.
She suddenly felt that this was not bad. At least Emmanuel wants me to be
his family!
“Well… Thank you!” He was even shyer than her since it was his first time
sharing snacks with a woman in over thirty years.
He had never done this before, even when married to Abellyn.
Now he felt like his heart was about to jump out of his chest!
Although he looked like a rough man, his hands and feet were agile, and he
quickly and skillfully split the hot dog in half and ate it with his hands.
Tia took a few sips of her milk tea and handed it to him. “Here, you can have
- I don’t want it!”
“Ah? T-This!” His dark face turned as red as burning charcoal. Is this
equivalent to an indirect kiss? Is Tia not bothered by it?
“Ryder, hurry up and take it!” Roselynn bumped Ryder again.
Jaxton, who was watching, felt uncomfortable no matter how he looked at it!
In his eyes, Ryder was a poor, ugly, and short man. How did he become the
male lead in this six-person date?
1
What was even more hateful was that his wife, Rhea, who he tried so hard to
please, was indifferent to him, but she was so enthusiastic and concerned
about this poor, ugly, and short man. It was simply unreasonable!
He also quietly bumped into Emmanuel and desperately gestured with her
big eyes.
Emmanuel understood as well. After all, Rhea had done her homework before
they came on how to matchmake Ryder and Tia.
“Everyone, I heard that the most famous attraction in this amusement park is
the Ferris wheel Happiness. It is said that if a man and a woman ride
together, they will be blessed with happiness!”
Emmanuel suggested that it had to be him. Otherwise, Tia might not be
curious or believe it, even if Rhea had suggested it.
“Haha, let’s go and have fun then!” Jaxton also agreed with this proposal. Girls
tend to be afraid of this kind of game, so when the time comes, I sit with
Roselynn and spin in the air. Once my wife gets scared, I can hold her and
repair our relationship, right?
Roselynn couldn’t be bothered to look at him since he had initially wanted to
say that she didn’t want to play, but she was afraid that it would affect the
group activity and cause Tia not to participate. Then, this six-person date
would be meaningless.
“Tia, let’s play together!” Rhea also walked over and held her hand.
Although they had only met for the second time, they tended to become
best friends because of their compatible personalities!
W
“Well, okay!” She didn’t hesitate, even though she knew the purpose of this
activity. The feeling of everyone surrounding her made her feel like a beloved
group member, and she was delighted! Especially one of them, who was her
prince charming!
“Well… Then, I’ll go buy the tickets!” He suggested again.
It wasn’t because he knew how to pick up girls and win women’s favor but
because of his honest personality. He was always the most proactive when
spending money and doing work.
Jaxton was a step behind again and quickly said, “Let me do it since these
tickets are not cheap, and it will cost at least a few hundred dollars for so
many people to play!”
“Uh… Well…”

Chapter 754
Ryder felt guilty since a few hundred bucks was not small for him.
“Tommy’s dad, just let him go and buy it. Unexpectedly, it was Tia who spoke
up at this moment as she knew that he wasn’t a wealthy person and wanted
to save him some money.
Both Rhea and Roselynn chuckled in their hearts. When a woman wanted to
save money for another man, she no longer saw him as a stranger.
“Well, alright then.” Ryder decided not to buy the tickets.
Jaxton returned with the tickets and distributed them to everyone, but he just
received a thank you from Rhea and Tia. It was a good use of money,
although it differed from what he expected.
On the other side, ten minutes ago.
In the control room of the amusement park, the site manager had been
staring at the screen.
Suddenly, a man dressed unusually walked in, and two followers were behind
him.
The site manager and the two video surveillance officers immediately stood
up and greeted the man, “Mr. Verkade!”
“Well, have you arranged everything as instructed?” Mr. Verkade was indeed
Hubert, and he asked with a wicked smile.
“Mr. Verkade, we have already stopped selling tickets for the Ferris wheel
project as you ordered!”
After the site manager answered, he leaned closer to Hubert and whispered,
“The equipment has been inspected in advance. As long as the switch is
pressed here…”
The site manager didn’t finish his sentence.
The wicked smile on Hubert’s face became more and more evil, and his eyes
burst with flames of hatred. He laughed and said, “Good! You’ve done well!
After this is done, I will propose to Gautier to double your bonus!”
“T-Thank you, Mr. Verkade!” The site manager thanked him excitedly.
The Verkade family was a significant shareholder of this amusement park. He
would make a fortune this year with Mr. Verkade’s words!
As for why Mr. Verkade did this, he didn’t ask or care. Anyway, with the
Verkade family backing him up in case of any trouble, he would pretend to
know nothing.
“Emmanuel, you b*stard! You made me lose my backdoor. Today, I will see
how you die!” Hubert gritted his teeth and clenched his fists like a hellish dog.
At this moment, his phone rang, and it was Gautier calling. “Hey, Hubert, did
you personally go to the amusement park?”
His tone was slightly dissatisfied as he felt that his younger brother couldn’t
handle significant matters.
“Gautier, I must see Emmanuel die! This time, with the help of Mr. Magnus, he
will meet a tragic end!” Hatred burned in Hubert’s eyes, and he even spat a
little.
Gautier didn’t waste any more words and gave him a final piece of advice.
“You should leave quickly and not stay at the scene. Please let others handle
this kind of thing.”
Yet, Hubert didn’t listen and chose to hang up the phone, and he event
wanted to go to the Ferris wheel in person.
He hated Emmanuel to the bone and couldn’t find peace until he saw him die
with his own eyes!
On the other side, Emmanuel and the others had already entered the waiting
room of the Ferris wheel, but they found that there were few people around
today.
“What’s going on? Why are there so few tourists today?” Tia curiously asked.
Emmanuel also found it strange, but it was normal for the number of people
at an amusement park to fluctuate, right?
It was the first weekend after the holiday, and maybe everyone didn’t have
the mood or the free time to come to a place like this.
What was even more unexpected was that only seven people were playing
when it was their turn, and no new players were joining behind them!

Chapter 755
“Why are there so few people playing? Aren’t there still many seats
available?” Emmanuel couldn’t help but ask the staff.
“We arrange it based on ticket purchases and will still operate even if there
are no more visitors. You can continue waiting if you don’t want to play.” The
staff replied politely.
“What are we waiting for? Having fewer people is better, as this is our
exclusive happiness!” Jaxton said without caution while leading the way to
the Ferris wheel seats.
With his status, he didn’t want to play with a group of commoners as he
wouldn’t even feel comfortable sharing the photos on Moments.
But now, he could show off as the seven had booked the entire Ferris wheel,
and he was paying for it.
“Tia, do you want to play now?” Rhea also asked Tia, as she was the
protagonist today.
“Let’s play since no more people are waiting. It doesn’t matter anyway!” Tia,
unlike Emmanuel, was a simple ordinary woman.
“Then, let’s go!” Rhea took the initiative to help Ryder and Rhea fasten their
seat belts.
Soon, Roselynn also took her seat.
As for Emmanuel and Rhea, they finally sat on a three-person seat with
Tommy as he didn’t want to disturb Ryder and Tia.
Of course, Tommy requested this since he was young but quite clever.
Even though he had said before that his dad couldn’t compare to Tia in every
aspect, he still wanted to try it, right? There was a saying that went along the
lines of “sometimes one would never know what despair was until one tried
their best!”
He didn’t want his dad to have any regrets, even if it meant making him
despair.
“Mr. Lowe, what’s wrong?” The ride had just started moving slowly, and Tia
noticed that Ryder was trembling slightly and gripping the handle tightly.
“Well… I’m a little afraid of heights!” He felt a bit embarrassed to admit it.
As soon as he said that, Jaxton behind him couldn’t help but mock him.
“Haha, you’re a grown man, yet you’re afraid of heights? You have such a
strong body for nothing. How are you going to protect women?”
Ryder also felt ashamed, but what could he do about his fear of heights?
814
“Roselynn, are you also afraid of heights?” Jaxton suddenly looked at her as if
he wanted to say something like “I’ll protect you,” but he found her glaring at
him coldly, as she was unhappy with his mockery of her cousin.
He suddenly shivered since he wasn’t stupid, and he knew that today’s
six-person date was mainly to help Ryder pursue Tia, but his character
naturally showed as it was just like that.
“Mr. Lowe, don’t be afraid! We have seat belts and safety measures, so
nothing will happen. Be brave!” Tia comforted Ryder proactively and even
gently patted his black hand with her tiny hand.
There is a clear distinction here.
Ryder suddenly felt a surge of strength. He nodded, and his trembling wasn’t
as severe anymore.
Boom. Boom.
The Ferris wheel slowly started to rotate
The surrounding scenery was breathtaking as sometimes, they could see a
sea of flowers, magnificent buildings, and other lively scenes in the
amusement park, like the equally thrilling water park.
Everyone exclaimed, “This Ferris wheel is fascinating and fun!”
Rhea and Tommy were no exception, but only Emmanuel felt something was
off!
As a member of the Wolf Warrior Unit, he was more sensitive to the unusual
sounds of machinery than ordinary people. Why did this sound seem

since many visitors were still in the amusement park? Something was wrong,
