A Heartwarming Marriage Chapter 206
Although the Laytons from the other branches of the family were ambitious, they didn't dare act rashly in front of James. The family was involved in many fields and held insurmountable power. Naturally, everyone wanted to take over as the head of the family, but that spot had always been reserved for the eldest son of the first branch.At that moment, a woman's voice sounded behind them. "Why didn't you guys head to the company if you wanted to see my husband? Why come to Layton Manor?" Lucille's tall and lean figure appeared at the entrance. She dressed casually in black high-waisted flared jeans and a white sweater. Her presence, however, exuded oppressiveness with each step she took into the hall. For someone so petite, her domineering demeanor was remarkably intense."Why are you here?" asked Tucker.Lucille walked to the center and looked toward the main seat. She greeted, "Grandpa, Dad, Mom, Spencer and I came over for dinner tonight. He's still at the office, so he'll be

"Oh, Lucy. Why are you here?" Lila asked softly while tugging on Lucille's hand after the branch families left.The way Lucille conducted herself earlier had impressed James, Eric, and Lila. She'd been assertive yet respectful, calm, and confident when handling such a situation. She was more than suitable for being the lady of the Layton family. It was undeniable that Spencer's choice of wife was perfect.It was already 3:00 pm when Spencer returned to Layton Manor. On the way there, Mack had already informed him of Lucille's visit there.At Serenity Court, Spencer narrowed his deep eyes and looked at the woman in his arms. "You're going to Marvonia?"Admiring his long and slender fingers, Lucille nodded. "I got the address of the apartment where Mom used to stay from Robert. I want to visit it. "I came here today to ask your mom about Mom. I find it hard to believe that she didn't have a single family member back then. That's why I want to look into it."Spencer didn't try to

Lucille lunged bravely at Spencer, successfully toppling him over the couch. Spencer didn't know what she wanted to do. Just as he was about to say something, his lips were grazed with her soft, scarlet lips. This was the second time Lucille had taken the initiative with him. He didn't move and let her take control.She'd been practicing her kissing skills with him for the past two weeks and had greatly improved. They were now in an ambiguous position that could lead to another thing. Since Lucille had forbidden Spencer from being intimate with her, he could hardly contain his excitement when she started flirting with him.She was always irresistible, and even more so whn she took the lead this time.It seemed like she'd noticed the change in his body; she was about to escape when he held her waist and flipped her underneath him. Soon, she was trapped under him on the couch. "Not planning to finish what you started, huh?" His gaze was fixed on her.She shook her head and sa

The next day, Lucille took off to Marvonia. Since Spencer had matters to resolve in Whiteloop City, he didn't go with her. However, he arranged for Bethany to tag along with her. Unable to refute him, Lucille departed with Bethany.When Lucille's flight landed in Marvonia, it was about 7:00 pm there. A few people were waiting for them as soon as they touched down. The man in front of the group, who was dressed in black, went up to her respectfully. "Greetings, Mrs. Layton. My name is Flynn Camden, and I'm here under Mr. Layton's orders to send you to the hotel."Lucille was unaware of this arrangement, but Bethany was.In the car, Flynn said, "Mrs. Layton, if there's anything you need in Marvonia, I'd be happy to assist you."Lucille calmly replied, "Sure. Thank you."Flynn was startled. It was his first time hearing "thank you" from any of his superiors, so it surprised him how nice she was. "It's my pleasure, Mrs. Layton. After all, I'm your subordinate, and this is my job."

The best time for Ghosthorn to operate was in the small hours.Lucille changed into a black top and bottom with a black cap and mask, leaving only her dark eyes exposed. An outfit like this was fairly common in the underworld since no one would want to be recognized there.However, Ghosthorn was not accessible to everyone. Without a special token, one could only dream to entering. A popular bar hide the entrance to Ghosthorn. Lucille lowered her cap and went to the bar counter alone. "Three glasses of Death in the Afternoon, please." Her cold voice rang into the mixologist's ears.The mixologist glanced at her and stealthily pushed a black button hidden behind the bar counter. Soon, a man with a crew cut arrived and locked eyes with the mixologist. The latter glanced toward Lucille, bowing his head.He walked to Lucille's side, saying, "Please follow me." He then led her to the top floor of the bar and requested, "Please show me your token for authentication."Lucille fished out

Phantom crossed his legs and leaned against the couch casually. He narrowed his eyes and appraised Lucille, who was dressed in allblack, only revealing her eyes. "Did you say you're Inkbrush?"Lucille also appraised him. Phantom was Ghosthorn's top dog and called the shots there. There was one thing that surprised her, though—he was younger than she'd expected and quite handsome. He'd deep-set eyes and a tall nose.His had tanned skin and a small scar on his forehead. It didn't detract from his good looks, though. On the contrary, it left one with a deep impression. It was as if it was his trademark.At the same time, she knew there was a secret boss behind Ghosthorn. No one knew who it was, though.Lucille took off her mask, revealing her beautiful face. Her breathtaking beauty made everyone present gasp. Then, she said indifferently, "Yes, I did."Phantom frowned and said coldly, "Are you insulting my intelligence, gorgeous? Who do you think you're kidding? Do you even know who
A Heartwarming Marriage Chapter 212
Phantom didn't think Lucille looked like she was in Ghosthorn to cause any trouble. After all, she was the supreme chief of Otearl Alliance. She couldn't possibly waste time on things like this, could she?It looked like Jim had done something stupid behind Phantom's back to incur Lucille's wrath, making her want to deal with him personally. He gestured at one of his men. "Tell Jim to come here.""Yes, sir."Soon, Jim arrived. "You wanted to see me, sir?"He ignored Lucille and approached Phantom, looking somewhat sycophantic. Phantom glanced at him but didn't say anything to him. Instead, he turned to Lucille and nodded at her. "He's here."Jim was confused. What was going on here? Only then did he follow Phantom's line of sight to look at Lucille. He took in her good looks and assumed she was one of the new beauties Phantom had picked for auctioning.He thought Phantom wanted him to help set a price for Lucille and said, "Where'd you find this beauty, sir? Judging from her look

"You're lucky to have caught the attention of Otearl Alliance's supreme chief, Jim. You're not suffering any losses here." Phantom looked like he was enjoying the show. He didn't act the way any boss should have.Jim was stunned, and his legs almost gave out. "O-Otearl Alliance?"Hadn't he just accepted a regular order? How had he gotten linked to Otearl Alliance? He'd checked and was sure his target had nothing to do with the alliance.Two gunshots rang out. Before anyone even realized what was happening, Lucille had fired twice at Jim with her gold Desert Eagle. The shots got him in both his scapulae.Jim was on the floor before he'd returned to his senses after learning Lucille was from Otearl Alliance. Meanwhile, Phantom was surprised—Lucille had actually gone easy on Jim. This didn't seem like something someone from Otearl Alliance would do.He admired her aim, though. She was a good shot, and she hadn't hesitated when firing—as expected of Inkbrush, who was also known as a
