George was jolted awake from his dream and straightened his back on the chair."Commander Lawton, you're awake. Just in time for breakfast." Maverick placed a cup of coffee and a box of sandwiches on George's desk."Where's Jacobson?"Maverick responded, "Oh, he's having breakfast.""Who sent it to him?""I did. Don't worry, Commander Lawton."It was only then that George eased his anxiety. He had just woken up from a dream where Damian had experienced a strange death. Yesterday, he'd asked for Damian's health report, confirming that the latter had no illnesses.Regardless, the way Damian had admitted to all charges had left George suspicious and anxious. He had no choice but to raise his guard until he'd safely transferred Damian to Prison 167 of Whiteloop City.Just as he thought the most secure place would be the prison, he was proven wrong. Three days later, in the early hours of the day of his preliminary hearing, Damian became a victim of a group fight that broke out in t

"Sure. I'll cook for you tonight." Spencer wore a smile, while his tone was filled with affection and his gaze soft. For her, he could do everything she asked."Yay! Love you."Those words resembled electricity coursing through his veins, rendering him stiff and overwhelmed. Lucille, similarly stunned by her own words, couldn't believe she could speak this coquettishly.Regardless, she couldn't retract her words and simply brushed them off. It wasn't like anyone else had heard her anyway.At last, Spencer ended the call, saying he would pick her up in the evening. Pausing briefly, Lucille started the car and left the filming location.Then, she headed for the National Cybersecurity Command Center. To gain entry there, one would have to undergo three verification steps. First, they had to scan their special access card; second, they would go through a fingerprint scanner, and lastly, the facial recognition system.Only after completing all three steps could they enter the Nation

It wasn't until 7:00 pm that Lucille had the chance to leave. She had been supposed to depart as soon as the matter had been resolved, but Gabriel, that geezer, had informed everyone of her return, which ended up holding her back for hours.Gabriel ignored her harsh gaze and cleared his throat. "It's late. Why don't you have dinner with us before you go?"Dinner? She suddenly remembered the dinner she'd discussed with Spencer and that he would pick her up in the evening. She immediately panicked. It was already 7:00 pm!Any devices would automatically have no cell service and network once within the vicinity of the National Cybersecurity Command Center.Gabriel watched as Lucille's expression went from one of anger to panic within seconds. What was going on?He was about to ask her what went wrong, but Lucille had bolted out of his sight. Indeed, she ran away. He perplexedly looked at her and saw her in a panic for the first time.After exiting the premises, Lucille saw plenty of

When Lucille arrived back at the manor, Spencer was already home. She saw Herbert when she entered and pulled him aside, whispering, "Herbert, is he home?"Herbert smiled amicably. "Mr. Layton returned 30 minutes ago and is now in the kitchen, Mrs. Layton.""The kitchen, huh," she mumbled to herself."That's right. Mr. Layton called home this afternoon and asked the kitchen to hold off because he'll be preparing dinner for you tonight," Herbert explained with a smile.He adored Lucille; although she was quiet, her presence had drastically changed Spencer since she'd moved in. It was evident that they were in love.Nevertheless, Herbert thought it was strange that Lucille was particularly cautious today. He made a wild guess. "Mrs. Layton, did you have a fight with Mr. Layton?"Lucille couldn't help but feel her heart melt. Spencer was mad at her, but he was still cooking for her. Pursing her lips, she replied, "Not really. I did something that upset him."Herbert thought it wasn

Spencer washed his hands. With a stretch of his arm, he easily wrapped it around the cheeky Lucille's waist and brought her in front of him with a quick twirl.She gasped. Before she could react, he pinched her chin, prompting her to look up.The next second, he sealed her lips with his. The kiss carried a hint of punishment. His actions were intense, as if a beast had suddenly spotted food and seized it wildly.Lucille followed his lead and wrapped her arms around his neck, reciprocating the kiss and keeping up with his rhythm. Gradually, he softened his kiss, causing her to groan gently. His strong arm latched onto her waist tighter, pulling her closer to him, leaving no space between their bodies.Luckily, he was holding her, or she would've lost her balance.The atmosphere in the kitchen was getting heated, and the air was filled with sounds of their kisses and gasps.Right before she needed to catch her breath, Spencer released her, with his warm lips traveling to her neck a

For some reason, Lucille immediately caught Spencer's drift. She glared at him and said, "Dream on!"Then, she pushed him away and hurried out of the kitchen, running right into Seth, who'd just returned. He asked, "Why's your face so red, Lucille? Are you burning up?"She ignored him and hurried upstairs. He fell silent, feeling bemused as he watched her run up the stairs. What was wrong with her? Why had she hurried off upon seeing him? It wasn't like he was going to ask her for money.Herbert happened to appear at that moment. Seth grabbed him and asked like a child waiting to be fed, "Is Lana done cooking, Herbert? I'm hungry."Herbert smiled and said, "Lana's off today."Seth frowned. "Doesn't that mean I won't have anything for dinner tonight?"Herbert's smile grew. He pointed at the kitchen and said, "Mr. Spencer is in there.""What?" Seth's eyes widened. He stared at Herbert before turning to look at the kitchen. There, he saw a familiar figure inside. He rubbed his eyes

20 minutes later, dinner was ready. Seth enthusiastically grabbed his plate and cutlery. When he saw Spencer merely glance at him indifferently without saying anything, he knew this meant he'd be able to enjoy the meal.This was probably the quietest he'd ever been during a meal. He was both touched and on tenterhooks—he'd finally lived to see the day when he could have Spencer's cooking. This was something he could brag about for the rest of his life.Spencer's cooking was delicious. He gave Lana a run for her money. Everyone in their family knew he could cook, but no one had ever gotten the chance to try his cooking before. Not even James, Eric, or Lila had ever experienced this.After the meal, Seth obediently took his plate and cutlery to the kitchen. Lucille was confused by his odd behavior and actions. She asked, "What's wrong with you? Why are you acting like this?"Before he could say anything, Spencer said, "Ignore him. There are a few days every month when he acts abnorma

"All I need to do is care for my precious Mrs. Layton. Feeding you and making sure you're satisfied is my duty," Spencer said, deliberately lowering his voice. It made Lucille's knees go weak.For some reason, she couldn't help feeling like he was insinuating something with his last sentence. It was mainly because of the amorous and teasing look in his eyes and his unconcealed desire. She felt like his gaze could burn her.It was a familiar gaze, and she looked away from him. She was about to get up when he tightened his grip on her waist, keeping her in place.Spencer narrowed his eyes at her. "Where do you think you're going?"Lucille smiled faintly. "To the washroom."He snorted and leaned down to kiss her, quickly prying her lips open and plundering her sweetness. After a moment, he switched their positions, seemingly worried that she'd feel uncomfortable with her head tilted. He made her sit on his lap so they were face-to-face.Then, he kept an arm around her waist while cu

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
