Upon learning that, another netizen asked, "What the hell? Are you sure Lucille's their biological daughter?""Damn, what a horrible family! First, her fiancé cheated on her with her own sister, and now her parents are even on her sister's side. Poor Lucille!" "Lucille should probably get a DNA test." "Even if it's favoritism, it's too unethical! Are you saying Lucille also called off the engagement under pressure from her family?" "Oh, man! You've asked the most important question!" At that moment, over at the Johnson residence, Sabrina was reading the comments on her phone and saw this thread. A hint of malice flashed in her eyes as she subconsciously clenched her phone. She wanted to ask Larry for help but remembered he'd been out of contact for a while. He'd been gone after that incident. Then, she suddenly thought of a scheme. …At Quall Group, Sean timidly asked, "Mr. Quall, the public opinion has been on Ms. Lucille's side. Our PR department can't control them, l
After reading the post by @StarofJustice, Bailey angrily exclaimed, "This is definitely that bitch's doing!"While Bailey fumed, Lucille remained seated in her chair, calm as usual. Samuel, too, was used to this situation. But something was different this time. There was a voice recording, and it sounded exactly like Lucille. Information tended to spread online rapidly, almost at the speed of light. By now, the voice recording had attracted a lot of attention."Babe, what's with that recording?" Bailey asked. She had listened to it multiple times and confirmed that it was indeed Lucille's voice. But she didn't believe Lucille would say such things. Samuel felt equally confused. Lucille pondered for a bit before slowly replying, "That's indeed my voice, but the words aren't. The content has been fabricated." Bailey and Samuel were shocked.Frowning, Samuel said, "If that's the case, it looks like Sabrina is truly meticulous; she might've planned this for a long time." "Ho
In just half an hour, the netizens had shifted their attention to Lucille. The comments were filled with condemnation, labelling her as shameless, vicious, and devious. Someone even found out Lucille was the CEO of Star&Ciel Group, thus dragging the company down into turmoil, saying that neither the company nor its products would thrive when it had such a shameless woman as its CEO.As an elite, Sabrina was loved by many, especially women, due to her image as the master of all arts. She was also a renowned perfumer, which naturally brought her countless fans. One netizen said, "My god! How could Lucille be this deceitful and devious at such a young age? And she even plagiarized? How is she this shameless? "Our Sabrina is too kind for keeping Lucille's secret for so long, and she's still defending her. If it weren't for a kind-hearted person leaking it out for goodwill, we would've unfairly criticized Sabrina!" The other netizens also shared their own two cents. "Disgusting
It was one shockwave after the other for the netizens. It seemed like there was neverending drama, making it feel like a soap opera. On top of that, the plot twist had turned things around yet again too quickly! Some were still out of the loop, trying to figure out what happened. The post that had them reeling had been uploaded by a netizen named @IExposeYou—such a simple and blunt, yet infuriating username. They had almost 10 million followers and were known for their sharp tongue. Many didn't mind their sharp tongue because they were still reasonable and humorous. And most importantly, all the information @IExposeYou had leaked was 99.9% accurate. Whenever there was any inaccurate gossip, they would step out and clarify things. Plus, they were also an avid food lover. Aside from the juicy gossip, they also shared a lot of gourmet recommendations and photos. Yet, for many years, no one had found out their true identity or gender. @IExposeYou had posted two Twitter posts t
The netizens continued to voice out their opinions. "Dayum, that's some juicy gossip right here. It's even a trilogy! Very nice! It'll definitely be the most memorable moment of the year!" "*covers face* ohmigosh, this is the fastest plot twist in history, just like rocket speed!" "Where are all the gossipers now? Weren't they just talking mad shit about this? Why are they silent all of a sudden?" "Boy, what drama! All of you @Sabreee's fans have nothing to say now, huh?" "This is my first time listening to a synthesized recording. Wow, the more you know." "Where's @StarofJustice? Has he gone into hiding after getting exposed?" "Don't tell me @StarofJustice was acting under someone's orders?""A trash like them isn't worthy of the name 'Justice'. They better get their username changed quickly. Stop insulting the Alvian language!" All the netizens swarmed to @StarofJustice's Twitter account to post their opinions, only to realize @StarofJustice had turned off their com
Harold looked at the photo of a man's side profile he'd just received, his eyes filled with surprise. He recognized the man in the photo as the one who'd been beside Lucille, even though it was just a side profile. He'd also received a message along with the photo. "This side profile is the only photo I have. It's a premium edition. Don't you dare send it to someone else! He doesn't allow anyone to keep any private photos of him. So please, I still want to live longer!" Harold felt like his brain had stopped functioning. He couldn't believe a celestial prodigy like Spencer would be with Lucille. It was simply unimaginable. At the same time, he also felt a sense of danger; Spencer wasn't someone he should provoke. Coincidentally, Sabrina called Harold just then. He glanced at his phone, having no intention of answering the call. At the Johnson residence, Sabrina looked at the unanswered phone in concern. "Mom, Harry didn't answer my call." Ivy pondered for a second. "He's p
Sabrina timidly lowered her head, making it impossible for Horace to speak harshly. After all, she was his precious granddaughter. Yet, he still asked every single question that needed to be asked. "The,n what's with the trending topic on Twitter today? How did you suddenly get involved in a plagiarism incident? And what's with that voice recording?" Of course, Sabrina already knew how to deal with them. All she had to do was keep denying it. After all, no one knew she'd done it, even the person who had leaked the news. "I don't know either, Grandpa. It was already on the top trending tropics when I found out." Horace looked at Sabrina's sincere expression and deduced that she was genuinely out of the loop. He then posed another probing question. "Can you explain about the plagiarism incident? Tell me. Who plagiarised who?" Sabrina kept her head down, a trace of malice flickering in her eyes. But her expression shifted to a vulnerable and aggrieved one when she looked up.
Spencer had indeed been surprised by Lucille's identity as White Chamomile. He'd personally called Brian for help, but he'd never thought he'd find out about Lucille's secret identity. "How did you know that old geezer, Brian Olsen?" Lucille gazed at Spencer in confusion after listening to his explanation. Spencer earnestly replied, "JM Corporation provides funding to the National Piano Association every year. So, we have this connection." Lucille said nothing. He was quite the capitalist, wasn't he? "But how did you find out about my connection with the National Piano Association?" This was what Lucille found most puzzling. If Spencer hadn't made this connection, he wouldn't have contacted Brian. Spencer coughed awkwardly. "I… um… found a music score and the association's badge in your room."Lucille fell silent again. Even though Spencer had moved in with her, she hadn't bothered to tidy up her stuff.Suddenly, she asked inquisitively, "Have you never suspected I plagiari
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
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
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
