A Heartwarming Marriage Chapter 147
Harold looked at Lucille as if she were a stranger. "You're obsessed with money now, aren't you?"Lucille chuckled. "Isn't that why we live? For money? How am I considered obsessed? Is earning money a sin now?""It's not, but at the very least, don't let it be dirty money!" he mocked.She scoffed, becoming more amused by his words. "I obtained my money fair and square, and it's definitely much cleaner than yours."Seeing her stubbornness, Harold couldn't help but raise his voice. "Don't you realize this will ruin your life?"Lucille responded with a fake smile. No matter what he said, she wasn't affected and maintained her smile. "Mr. Quall, I'm sure you understand humans will do anything for survival, just like animals."Her nonchalance rendered him furious, and his words became harsher. "But you don't have to be this pathetic! You're no different than a slut now!"At that moment, a cold glint flashed across her eyes. She could play along with him, but that didn't mean he could

"For my wife to spend! That's your allowance."Lucille was speechless… It wasn't 200, 2,000 or 20 thousand dollars they were talking about. It was two million! Was two million equivalent to a pocket change to him? Who in this world actually had a two-million-dollar allowance?When she returned to the office and told Bailey about it, the latter was filled with admiration. She said, "Damn! Only your husband can give out two million dollars as an allowance. Wow! I want a rich husband who gives me millions to spend too."Lucille was at a loss for words.Bailey sighed in admiration. "Babe, you probably rank top in the world for having the most allowance. Look at you!" At that moment, she found joy in drawing the comparison. She teased, "With such a wealthy husband, you might as well just go home and be a dutiful wife, babe."Lucille countered, "Do I look like a dutiful wife to you?"Bailey paused for a moment and shook her head in disagreement. She knew very well that asking Lucille

The aloof Lucille sat on the couch idly, her wide-leg black pants covering her crossed legs. Her face was exquisite and flawless, radiating an air of unfriendliness. Naturally, her demeanor was domineering, so not many people dared to upset her.That was her strength—she was irresistible yet fearsome.Every time Horace and William saw Lucille, they were reminded of Jane, who had shared the same characteristics as Lucille."Let's start. Why am I here?" Lucille scanned the quiet crowd and initiated the conversation.According to the usual routine, Horace and William would give her a scolding. But surprisingly, they skipped that part this time. How strange…She narrowed her eyes in suspicion, and her hostility increased. Surely, there was nothing good about this."Many things have happened over the last two days. Your sister has confessed everything to us. Indeed, it was her fault that she stole your composition for the competition. She's realized her fault. Considering our relation

Help each other as a family? Horace and William truly knew no shame!Had they forgotten what they did to her? And now they were preaching her about what a family should do? How foolish and ironic!She laughed sarcastically. "Oh, we're a family now? So, I'm part of the family when I have something you need, but an ungrateful brat when I don't?"Faced with the confrontation, Horace and William froze in embarrassment.In reality, they had underestimated how disappointed Lucille was with them, so much so that she harbored no hopes for them. The so-called kinship and fatherly love were things she no longer needed or desired.All these people had done when she'd needed them the most was constantly oppress her, crushing her remaining expectations into smithereens and rendering them unmendable. Even if she did get her hopes up again, the scars would always remain over her wounds.Lucille turned to them with a mocking smile. "My great, wonderful grandpa and father, one cannot be this se

"Don't take things too far, Lucille!" Ivy shot to her feet and screeched while pointing at Lucille. "What right do you have to make Bree kneel? You've got some nerve, demanding something like that when you're worthless. You can't even compare to a hair on Bree's head!"Lucille didn't get mad. Instead, she laughed and said, "You're right—I'm worthless. Why are you coming to me one after another, then? Since Sabrina's so capable, she can get into the piano association herself."Ivy was rendered speechless. Sabrina gnashed her teeth and glared at Lucille, but she couldn't ruin her kind and understanding image by arguing with the latter now. She could only reveal her jealousy and hatred for Lucille from an angle that Horace and William couldn't see."Grandpa, Dad, I… I'm willing to kneel in front of Lucille for our family's sake," she said.Lucille watched as Sabrina tried hard to maintain her kind and gentle act, enjoying the show. "You guys heard her, right? She's willing to do it.

Horace ignored Sabrina's pleas. He ordered the bodyguards, "Take her to the second floor and lock her up!""Yes, sir!" The bodyguard in the lead stepped forward and reached for Lucille. He'd yet to even touch her shoulder when there was a yell.Everyone present watched with horror as the bodyguard was sent flying before he crashed onto the floor. The Johnsons then turned to stare at Lucille in shock. How had she done it? How could she send a burly man flying? It was unbelievable!Sabrina gaped at Lucille and gulped. She remembered how Lucille had easily lifted her and flung her into the pond at the hospital.The three other bodyguards were gobsmacked. All they'd seen was Lucille grabbing the first bodyguard's wrist at a speed that hadn't seemed human-like. Then, she'd kicked him in the chest and sent him flying.The bodyguard now lay on the floor, clutching his chest and howling in pain. He couldn't get up. The three others didn't dare drop their guards when they saw this. Sti

"It's you?" William blurted when he saw Spencer's familiar face. He'd seen the latter with Lucille at the sanatorium. What was Spencer doing here?Spencer approached Lucille, who was surprised to see him. She, too, wondered what he was doing there."Are you injured?" The first thing Spencer did was check her for injuries.She shook her head. "They didn't even get the chance to touch me."Mack and the others who had come with Spencer couldn't stop their lips from twitching when they heard Lucille's somewhat proud tone. It was only expected of Spencer's wife—she was as arrogant and proud as he was.Then, they looked at the bodyguard groaning on the floor. Those bodyguards had to count themselves lucky that they hadn't bled.On the side, Sabrina was captivated by Spencer once more when she saw him. Jealousy washed over her when she saw how gentle he was with Lucille.At that moment, Horace sharply noticed that Spencer wasn't a simpleton. He'd seen countless people in his years, a

"Mrs. Layton, why don't you give me your keys? I'll drive your car back; you can ride with boss," Kent said to Lucille respectfully as they stood outside the Johnson residence.She handed him her keys. "Oh, okay. Thanks."Once she and Spencer were in the car, she asked, "How did you know I was here?"She played with his fingers and narrowed her eyes at him curiously, taking in his handsome face. She remembered that she hadn't told anyone she was coming here. Then, it hit her, and she leaned close to ask tentatively, "Do you have someone tailing me?"Spencer looked down at her, his gaze gentle and doting. He smiled and said, "You're a genius, honey. Isn't it a waste that you're not passing that on to our children?"Lucille frowned. He'd changed the topic with a single sentence. She thumped his chest with her fist and said in exasperation, "Take this seriously. I'm asking you a proper question!"She was about to move her hand away when he quickly grabbed her wrist. She tried to p

A Heartwarming Marriage Chapter 704
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
