In a world where wealth dictates worth, Grant finds himself caught in a storm of scorn when he attends his cousin's wedding. Once a promising astronaut, he now faces the harsh reality of being treated as a nobody by his own family. The Harringtons, now shrouded in luxury and arrogance, have forgotten their roots, but Grant refuses to be a silent observer.

As the laughter of the elite reverberates around him, the question looms—what happens when the past collides with the present, and the ties of blood are severed by ambition and pride?

In a society where status is everything, can Grant reclaim his dignity, or will he be forever marked as the ex-astronaut who fell from grace? As lines are drawn and alliances tested, the stakes couldn’t be higher. Will he rise from the ashes of disgrace or kneel before the very people who turned their backs on him?

Ex-Astronaut Shamed, Identity Unveiled, All KneelChapter 1

As the chief engineer of the railway, I went to give a wedding gift to my cousin on behalf of my family, but was stopped outside the hotel by his wife.

"It's OK as long as the money has arrived. The courier doesn't need to come in. Just get out of here and stop being an eyesore."

As she spoke, she reached out to grab the cardboard box in the car, which was filled with aerospace parts. I hurriedly tried to dissuade her.

"This is not a gift for you, you can't touch it!"

Her face turned cold instantly and she started cursing.

"You're just an errand boy, and you want to embezzle it? I don't even like this pile of rubbish, I wouldn't even want it if it was given to me!"

The next second, the box was kicked over by her and a gap was created in the titanium alloy inside.

I was so angry that I lost my mind.

"Are you sick? Robbery in broad daylight? Do you know what this thing is?"

Unexpectedly, the other party became even more arrogant.

"Who cares? The land you're standing on belongs to the Harrington Family! I'm the future mistress of the Harrington Family, and I can do whatever I want with it!"
