Seth shrugged and said, "I know my place, and I know I should give up on something that doesn't belong to me while I have the chance. Otherwise, whatever headaches come from these problems will be the death of me. I wouldn't want a headache to lead to my premature death."Tucker stiffened. What the hell was that supposed to mean? Seth sounded like he was talking about himself, but he was actually reminding those with ulterior motives not to covet things that weren't meant to be theirs.He was telling them to know their places and understand that they couldn't meddle with certain people and things. Otherwise, they would meet their end without even realizing how it had happened.James took a sip of his drink, looking like whatever was happening had nothing to do with him. Eric and Lila did the same.Suddenly, Seth's eyes lit up. "Spencer, Lucille."Everyone was taken aback. Who was Lucille? Spencer's name was familiar to all, but Lucille…At that moment, they saw Spencer enter th

Spencer didn't bother elaborating after making his announcement. He was only notifying the rest of the Laytons of his marriage. It was none of their business who he married, anyway. He couldn't be bothered to explain anything.Tucker took some time to digest the news. Then, he asked in disbelief, "Spencer, when did you get married?"Bobby chimed in, "Yeah. When did you get married, Spencer? We're your uncles, aren't we? Shouldn't you have told us about something as important as your marriage?"Seth looked at them and smirked. "Why are you guys so anxious? Don't worry, Uncle Bobby. You'll receive an invitation when it's time for the wedding.""How can she address your parents as her own before the wedding ceremony? It's not right!" Bobby protested."We're not in medieval times anymore, Uncle Bobby. Stop being such a stick in the mud," Seth retorted. "Rules and traditions are rigid, but humans are adaptable!"His words made Bobby feel embarrassed, but no one stopped him. Seth would

Lucille's curiosity was piqued. "Your last name is Young?"Scarlett explained, "Yeah. My mother is a Layton."Lucille understood now. She didn't know much about the younger generation of the Layton family and could only remember vaguely. "I'm Lucille Johnson.""Can I call you Lucy, then?" Scarlett was the type to quickly warm up to others.Lucille nodded, not feeling put out by Scarlett's enthusiasm. Scarlett looked naïve, and her gaze was guileless. It looked like Myra had protected and taught her well—she didn't have a scheming bone in her body, which Lucille would've expected from anyone linked to the Layton family.At that moment, a man's frivolous voice rang out. "Hey there, gorgeous. You've got some tricks up your sleeve, don't you? Look at how you've won Spencer's heart."Lucille and Scarlett turned to look at Yves. The former's gaze was cold and aloof, and she looked away after a glance.Yves was upset at being ignored. He wasn't as outstanding or renowned as Spencer, bu

Yves thought Lucille's words meant she'd agreed to his suggestion. His smile grew, and he became bolder. His eyes traced her gorgeous face, his gaze disdainful and salacious."Of course, gorgeous. Just tell me what you want." He grinned, and his gaze turned lecherous.Scarlett couldn't help saying worriedly, "Don't believe him, Lucy."Lucille smiled reassuringly and said, "Don't worry."She turned to Yves, who was now only a few steps away from her. She smiled faintly, mesmerizing him. Something about her charm made men want to drown in her.Then, she said, "We've got a deal, then. There's nothing that I need from you just yet, so how about we make a bet?"In Yves' eyes, she was only an ordinary woman who couldn't do anything to him, so he agreed without hesitation. "Sure. What's the bet?"Lucille was smiling, but the smile didn't reach her eyes. Her beauty masked the frostiness in her eyes, so no one noticed."It's simple. As long as you can do this one thing, I'll leave Spenc

Lucille glanced at Yves and said coolly, "You don't know how anything will turn out if you don't try it, right? Or are you afraid to take me up on this bet?"Yves couldn't stand being challenged, especially by women who'd caught his eye. "Fine, then. I'll play along with you."His words and actions made it clear he didn't think Lucille stood a chance against him, and it was as if he already thought of her as his. His gaze grew even more lecherous.Kent's heart sank when he heard that Lucille and Yves were going to spar. He wondered whether it'd be better for him to call an ambulance for Yves beforehand.Lucille wore an evening gown, which made it hard for her to move around. Despite that, she'd still made such a ridiculous bet with Yves. Scarlett approached her and said, "You're wearing an evening gown, Lucy. It's not convenient for you to move. How about we just forget about this?"This was her third time expressing her concern for Lucille, and the latter couldn't help finding he

The spectators had only seen Lucille wave a hand before Yves had fallen into the pond. It was terrifying—all she'd done was stand there and move a hand, yet it had been enough to make Yves fall. Everyone suddenly felt like they were the ones who'd grossly underestimated her.Kent was taken aback by how things had played out. He hadn't known that Lucille was capable of something like this, and his admiration for her grew.Lucille had never intended to draw blood during this "fight", so she'd taken the easy way out by throwing Yves into the pond. It was enough to teach him a lesson.After all, they were at Layton Manor, and she didn't need to take things too far. The bet had just been an excuse.Scarlett, who was closest to Lucille, was dumbfounded. What had just happened? How had Yves ended up in the pond?Everyone else was also stunned. It was pathetic for someone who was supposed to be as strong as a pro wrestler to end up being thrown into a pond in less than a minute. Yves ha

"Ha! Who knows whether the little bitch is the one who tried to seduce Yves? Look at that slutty, vixen-like face of hers! It's obvious she came here to seduce one of the Layton men," Fiona spat. "She thinks too highly of herself if she thinks she's worthy of joining this family!"She made Lucille out to be a promiscuous woman who'd come to Layton Manor to seduce anyone she could.Lucille stoically watched things play out from beginning to end. Then, she looked at Fiona lazily and snorted. "It's not up to you to decide whether or not I'm a slut, Madam Cooper."She smirked and continued, "At least I came here through proper means, unlike you. I didn't start as anyone's mistress."Fiona was stunned into silence. Everyone else couldn't believe Lucille had publicly shamed Fiona like that.Fiona was Sylvester's third wife, and she'd been his mistress in the past. Rumor had it that his first wife had passed away and that he'd divorced his second wife. But one thing was for sure—Fiona

The only other person most Layton family members feared, besides James and Spencer, was Lila. She was known for being sharp-tongued, and she did whatever she wanted. She didn't fear anyone and always protected her people.This extended to the upper crust. No one dared to face off against her—she had Eric's love, and Spencer was her son. She also hailed from the Porter family, which had many members in the army and politics. It was a family no one dared offend."Lila, Yves is your nephew. Lucille is just a woman who's yet to officially join the family!" Sylvester protested, hoping against hope that he could make Lila see sense."My daughter-in-law means more to me than a nephew ever could. She's someone our family has accepted—how can you say she's an outsider?" Lila said. At the same time, she approached Lucille and affectionately linked arms with her.Sylvester stared at her incredulously. He couldn't believe Lila was siding with an outsider.Lucille turned to give Lila a grate

In the bathroom, Lucille was relaxing as she enjoyed the care she was receiving from Spencer. They had seen each other like this for too long, and they had gotten used to it by now. Of course, it had taken her time to get used to it. Every time she was injured, she would end up receiving this treatment, but… While she might have gotten used to it, it was still a kind of punishment for Spencer."Honey, your shirt is wet. Why don't you take it off?"She noticed that half of his black shirt was wet and sticking closely to his body. The wet shirt perfectly outlined his muscular build.She couldn't help but gulp. This was pretty deadly to her too.He was wearing a black shirt with two buttons undone, revealing a glimpse of his collarbone. Coupled with his handsome face, he looked simply irresistible. Her heart couldn't help but race. As he carefully wiped her arm, he avoided the injury on her right hand. It was already torture for him to help her bath. However, when he suddenly he

"So, you can't blame Eunie for not telling you, and you can't blame us for keeping you in the dark."In other words, Ian had brought it upon himself, and there was no one else to blame but himself.Ian was rendered speechless. He'd never thought that this was how Eunice saw him—a ruthless person who would get rid of his own child.He mocked himself inwardly. He also felt hurt, as if something were stabbing him.After Lucille was done talking, she saw Ian look visibly upset and didn't say anything. So, she whispered to Spencer, "Do you think I went too far with what I said earlier? Can he take it?"Spencer rubbed her head and said, "Don't worry. He can take it. Besides, what you told him is the truth. If he can't handle it, he isn't worthy to be our buddy."Lucille nodded in agreement after she heard that. What Spencer said made sense. She felt at ease after he comforted her.After a while, Ian finally spoke up again. "So, I shouldn't go and look for her?"Lucille was surprised

"I'm here for you!"Upon hearing that, Lucille was rendered speechless. On second thought, she realized this was fine too.Then, she looked at Spencer and blinked before she said, "Don't leave me. I'm injured right now, so I can't fight him."Ian glowered at her words, feeling at a loss for words. Did he look like someone who would lay a hand on a woman?Spencer looked at her dotingly and responded, "Okay. I won't leave you."Ian was just flabbergasted now."What's the matter, Ian?" With Spencer to back her up, Lucille felt at ease. Even if she hadn't said anything, she knew Spencer wouldn't have left her alone with Ian.Ian suddenly smiled. "It looks like you have quite the luck. The hospital is practically your second home."Lucille was rendered speechless. Then, she smiled and looked at Spencer before she provoked Ian. "My home is wherever my husband is. We're not like some people, for whom having a wife seems to make no difference whatsoever." She'd never lost to anyone b

Ian turned to look at Lucas. It was obvious that he seemed to be wondering why Lucas had asked that. When Lucas saw Ian's expression, he knew that Ian had never thought about it. In other words, he had no recollection of what he had done and said."I'm going back to be with my wife. You guys just carry on." Spencer stood up and smoothed out the creases on his clothes as he spoke indifferently. After all, it had been a while since he'd left the ward.With that, he strode toward the door without waiting for the others to say anything. Connor was eager to see how things would unfold, so he didn't leave.…Meanwhile, after Beatrice left, Spencer returned to the hospital ward. When Lucille saw him coming in, she asked, "Where have you been?"He took off his coat and put it aside. Then, he walked to the bed and sat down. "I went to investigate some stuff."Lucille figured out what it must have been about and asked, "You went to investigate Alexander and my mom?"Spencer, who wa

"Ian, what brings you here?" Connor had no idea about Eunice's situation in Arcania, so he was quite surprised when he saw Ian.Although he was surprised, he wasn't blind. He could see that Ian had a hostile air about him.Looking puzzled, Connor glanced at Lucas, who was seated next to him, for an explanation. After all, he knew Spencer wouldn't tell him.After Ian came in, he didn't even bother to sit and directly asked, "Where is she?"Last night, he'd received Lucas' message—the latter had told him that he knew Eunice's location and wanted him to come to Arcania immediately. That was why Ian had rushed to Arcania without any delay.Lucas hadn't told him the exact location. Instead, he'd just told Ian to come to the hospital. Ian had thought that something had happened to Eunice and that she was hospitalized. So, he'd rushed to the hospital as soon as he'd gotten off the plane. However, after he'd come to his senses, he'd gotten someone to check the hospital's patient list.

Before Beatrice spoke, she looked at the entrance of the hospital ward. After ensuring that no one was coming, she said, "Although we found out that all four of Mr. President's children's last names are Vonridge, they don't seem to be his biological children."Lucille widened her eyes, looking surprised. She cocked an eyebrow and asked, "What did you just say?""They were adopted from the orphanage. Our database has their information, and it's a 100% match," Beatrice replied.Lucille naturally wouldn't doubt that the information in Otearl Alliance's database was incorrect. However, she had never heard anyone mention this before.At the same time, Spencer, who had just left, had gone to investigate something as well.After they'd returned in the afternoon, he'd instructed Kent to conduct an investigation. The news that Kent came back with shocked Spencer to the core.Connor and Lucas were also there. They were in a lounge."Spence, how could Lucille's mom also know Alexander?"

Diana let out a long sigh. Her words were tinged with helplessness and regret. "This is your aunt. She hasn't appeared for more than 20 years. I never expected her to be gone for this long. There has been no news from her. She must hate me very much."Samantha had no idea what had happened. Her aunt's name and everything related to her had always been taboo in the Crawford family."Is it possible that Ms. Deer is my aunt's child?" Samantha asked.If that was the case, it was quite a coincidence.Diana looked at the photo album in her hands. After a brief silence, she said, "I want to meet her. Don't tell anyone about this for now."Samantha nodded. "Okay."…Meanwhile, in Arcania, Alexander also left the venue after Lucille and the others left.After Alexander left, he immediately had someone to investigate Lucille's past. Back then, after Jane had suddenly left, she had covered all her tracks. No matter how Alexander had searched, he hadn't been able to find her. There hadn't
A Heartwarming Marriage Chapter 697
When Diana took a closer look, her hands, which had been leisurely tapping on the armrests, suddenly froze.At first, Samantha didn't notice anything unusual about her reaction."Grandma, the best thing I got out of this trip was getting a photo with my idol." She went on and on. "It's the first time I got to see Ms. Deer's real face, and she's very beautiful. No wonder she always wears a veil. Although she looks aloof, I think the way she talks sounds gentle."By the way, she is married. Her real name is Lucille Johnson, and she's from Whiteloop City in Summeria. There was an unexpected incident during the competition, and it was quite despicable. I didn't expect her family to turn out completely different from how I'd imagined them to be."Samantha pouted as she stared at the photo of her and Lucille. She'd always thought that someone outstanding like Lucille would have a perfect family; she hadn't expected things to turn out like that.After the competition had ended, Samantha
A Heartwarming Marriage Chapter 696
Meanwhile, after Samantha had participated in the perfumery competition, she'd stayed in Whiteloop City for about a week before returning to Crawford Residence in Marvonia.She had been declared the champion of this year's perfumery competition. After she'd returned, she'd chosen to keep a low profile and hadn't celebrated or gone around boasting about it.However, she'd forgotten that Natasha Crawford, her mother, had a strong sense of pride.Since Samantha had been young, she'd had to excel in everything and come in first to meet Natasha's expectations. Only then could Natasha hold her head high and brag about Samantha in front of everyone. At the same time, she could enjoy the flattery from those around her.So, the day after Samantha had returned, Natasha had gathered everyone and thrown a party to celebrate her victory. The room had been filled with people she hadn't known, but they'd all been important figures. That night, after making an appearance, Samantha had left the
