The old king's eldest son, third daughter, and fourth son had disappointed him when they were competing for the throne, so they did not receive the throne nor any money. 

Apart from his riches, Duke Eton did not have much power. Therefore, the assassins targeted him because they were after his wealth.

However, Duke Eton would rather give his inheritance to Nangong Nuannuan and Selena, who were not related to him by blood, than give it to his brothers and sisters.

Since then, she and Selena had been targeted by assassins several times, but those who tried once never tried again. As time passed, fewer and fewer people still had to guts to try to assassinate them.

Duke Eton stood up and supported the woman walking down. He said to Nuannuan, "Sunny, let me introduce you two. Sunny, this is Emily. Emily, this is Sunny. This is Sunny's fiance, Chi Yang, and these are her friends, Mr. Wu, Miss Sze, and Miss Wu."
