The car drove past an iron gate over six feet tall. Then, it pulled over at a parking lot that looked even bigger than seven or eight basketball courts combined.That was beside the point, though. The point was that there were two helicopters parked nearby. There was an image of something similar to a tiger on them, but it wasn't a tiger.Lucille couldn't help finding the image familiar. She seemed to remember someone showing it to her before but didn't get the chance to recall where she'd seen it before Spencer said, "We're here. Let's get down."He got out of the car and held out a hand to her. She placed her hand in his and got out. She looked around the place, noting that it didn't look like a place of residence or a tourist spot.Instead, it seemed like the secret base for an organization. There were barbed wires around the perimeter, and they were probably charged with electricity. There were also surveillance cameras at every corner.She turned to Spencer and raised an eyeb

Lucille fell silent. She wondered whether the problem really was that complex. "One more question, then. You guys don't know who damaged the microchip, right?"If they knew Zing was the one who'd damaged the microchip in the first place, they wouldn't be asking her to repair it. Who would be silly enough to ask the person who'd done the damage to fix it?Ethan asked, "Wait, how did you know that? You're right, though. We haven't managed to find out who did it."At his words, Lucille knew what she had to do. "Alright, then. Take me to the place. I'll see what I can do."She looked at Spencer, sounding as humble as could be. Spencer took her to the sixth floor, after which they passed through door after door, all of which looked high-tech.After around ten minutes, they arrived at a brightly lit area. Only one sound could be heard—the tapping on keyboards.There was a gigantic screen before them, which displayed a 3D map. Clusters of red dots flashed on the map.Each person sat be

"Could you please step out too, my beloved Mr. Layton?" Lucille asked coquettishly.Spencer felt like his ears were playing tricks on him. He raised an eyebrow, wanting her to repeat her question. He hadn't heard her properly.Lucille repeated it and smiled innocently. The sight was supposed to be heartwarming, but he didn't feel like that at all.Ethan and the others, who were waiting outside, were surprised when they saw Spencer come out. Ethan teased, "My, my. Have you been kicked out, too?"Zachary chimed in, "Ah, we've finally found someone who can order you around."Connor quipped, "What goes around, comes around."Spencer was the one who'd kicked them out earlier, and Lucille had now kicked him out. This made the other three men feel much better.Spencer pursed his lips and looked at them indifferently. He could never be bothered to explain himself, and this time wouldn't be an exception to that.…Inside the room, Lucille looked serious and focused as she stared unblin

Zachary pressed his tongue against the inside of his cheek and looked at Lucille meaningfully. "Everyone says you've hit the jackpot by marrying into the Layton family, Luce, but I think a certain someone is the one who's hit the jackpot with you."The news of Lucille's triumph over the virus soon spread throughout Dark Chamber. She and Spencer didn't stay for long. On their way home, she asked, "Oh, right. I saw an image of a beast on the two helicopters earlier. What was it?""A griffin."A griffin? She asked tentatively, "The guardian of treasures and places of power?"Spencer smiled at her. "You're very smart, Mrs. Layton."It was no wonder she'd found it familiar. Jonathan had shown it to her in the past. "I only know of it because Jonathan's interested in these mythical creatures. Does it represent anything?"Spencer said, "As you said, griffins guard treasures and places of power. The way I see it, justice and equality are also priceless treasures."Lucille asked, "So, yo

The address Sabrina had given Lucille yesterday led the latter to an abandoned residential development area. Weeds and wild grass were everywhere, along with potholes and unused construction materials.Lucille couldn't understand why these secret dealings always had to happen in places like these. As soon as she arrived and got out of the car, Sabrina showed up.Lucille smiled faintly and said, "My, I can't believe you're here to welcome me in person, Sabrina. It looks like whoever is inside there is more important than you."Sabrina scowled at her and said impatiently, "Hurry up."Lucille looked unfazed and remained leisurely. She shrugged and looked around while walking. "This isn't too bad a place. The scenery's nice, and the air is fresh. It's just a little out of the way; it's not too easy to drive here."Sabrina looked at her like she was a freak. How could Lucille be in the mood to take in the scenery? She even looked like she was in a pretty good mood.Why weren't things

Taylor didn't seem to mind. He merely smiled and said, "You're not only beautiful, Ms. Johnson. You're also quick on your feet."Lucille smiled faintly, but it was one of mockery. "Sorry, but you can't even compare to a hair on my husband's head. What makes you think I'd choose you over him? I'm not blind or dumb."Taylor fell silent. Sabrina hadn't expected Lucille to be gutsy enough to talk back to Taylor. The first time she'd met him, she'd been frightened by the ruthlessness he exuded. But she'd had no choice but to work with him so she could get rid of Lucille.It probably hadn't occurred to Sabrina that it wasn't likely Lucille would be scared of someone like Taylor if she could be with a man like Spencer."How dare you speak to our boss like that?" a man in black standing beside Taylor roared.It didn't do anything to scare Lucille. On the contrary, Sabrina was the one who got startled.Taylor held up a hand, and the man backed down. The former smiled devilishly at Lucille

Taylor's voice rang out in the silent office. "A night with me is my condition, Ms. Johnson."Connor felt the room's temperature suddenly drop several degrees. He felt like he needed to put on a thick coat. Damn Taylor and that mouth of his! He had a whole lot of nerve to constantly push Spencer's buttons.Meanwhile, Lucille didn't seem too bothered by Taylor's words. Instead, she smiled and asked, "Are you sure about that?"Taylor's eyes lit up. She hadn't immediately rejected him, nor did she look unwilling. It looked like Spencer didn't mean that much to her after all. Well, it made sense. Family and kin were more important than anyone else.He raised an eyebrow, thinking it made him look handsome. He was about to say something, but Lucille didn't give him the chance.It was almost as if she were afraid he wouldn't give her the envelope as she said, "Look, I can make arrangements for your condition. I'm sure you'll be satisfied."Then, she smiled meaningfully and held out a

Taylor hadn't expected Lucille to throw the Layton family's rules at him. He forced the words out through gritted teeth, asking, "You played me?"The menacing look on his face didn't faze Lucille. She said flippantly, "How can you say that, little Taylor? At most, we have varying intelligence levels and understand things differently."Then, she gave him an astonished look. "Wait, don't tell me you really think of me that way? I'm your cousin's wife!"She'd brought up the fact that she was Spencer's wife again. Taylor wasn't a fool. If he could choose to make an enemy out of Spencer, he couldn't be idiotic enough not to understand that Lucille was indirectly mocking him.His expression was dark, but he knew that he'd be walking right into her trap if he were to allow himself to get mad.Suddenly, he burst out laughing. Yet, the odd atmosphere didn't ease up at that. He had a huge smile on his face, but it didn't reach his eyes. He knew he couldn't show anyone that he was genuinely

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
