A Heartwarming Marriage Chapter 424
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

Lucille looked at Taylor. "Work with me on what?"Taylor didn't waste his breath. He said, "I'm sure you've heard about Herkel City asking for tenders to turn the city into a global economic city, Ms. Johnson."Her eyes glinted at his words, but she didn't say anything. The look in her eyes told him to continue."It's simple." He paused and looked her in the eye, seemingly not wanting to miss any change in her expression. "I want you to get JM Corporation's tender proposal for the project in Herkel City. After that, I'll let you go, and I'll help you look into your mom's death."Lucille clucked her tongue, much to his confusion. He didn't know what that meant. She looked at him briefly before shaking her head and sighing, looking disappointed. "I don't want to lecture you, but why are you proving me wrong when I just said you were a good guy?"Her tone was sincere. Then, she continued, "You're even asking me to steal someone else's tender proposal. I mean, you can go ahead and d

Lucille smiled at Taylor. "You still don't know me well enough, little Taylor. As everyone says, it's hard to understand women. I would say I don't really have any bad habits, except one—I never know what's good for me!"Taylor didn't know what to say. He detected a hint of arrogance and wildness in her. How could a woman be so calm and elegant while also proud and unrestrained? He'd never met anyone like her before. How was she doing it?Just then, a scream rent the air. "T-There's a tiger! It's huge!"A man in black who'd been standing guard outside scrambled into the room, his face filled with terror. He was shaking so violently that he could barely get the words out.Everyone turned to look at him and saw a huge white tiger appear before them. Their eyes widened in shock, and they forgot to breathe for a split second. Terror and fear washed over them. Even Taylor was dumbstruck; Sabrina collapsed on the ground in fear.Caesar's head was slightly bowed, and his eyes were fill

When Bethany walked toward Lucille, Barrett appeared out of nowhere and took Caesar away.Bethany reported what she saw earlier to Lucille. "Sabrina was behaving suspiciously when she was hiding in the bushes. I'm guessing she took a video of you and Caesar coming out."Lucille wasn't surprised. If Sabrina hadn't done anything, it wouldn't be like her at all. She was still up to her usual tricks—any chance she got, she would slander Lucille."Okay. Just ignore her." Lucille could probably guess what Sabrina planned to do.At this moment, Draco and Tobias were sitting in a tree in the distance, each holding a pair of binoculars.Draco fixed his gaze on Caesar and said, "What the heck? When did Ms. Lucille get such a big pet?"Tobias was so surprised that he was at a loss for words. They had been following Lucille for so long, but they had never seen her with Caesar.Draco said, "She's so cool! If she brings the tiger out, he will scare everyone. This 'bodyguard' can tackle at lea

Spencer's gaze looked particularly bewitching, and Lucille couldn't resist his charm.Their faces were reflected in their eyes, and it was all they saw; it was as if no one else existed around them.Spencer smirked as he leaned closer to her. His lips brushed against her ear. With a mischievous and sexy voice, he whispered in her ear.The next moment, Lucille's cheeks looked flushed. She gently hit his chest with her fist as she said coquettishly, "Stop it, seriously." Her punch didn't hurt at all. Instead, Spencer felt ticklish. He couldn't help but fall even more deeply in love with her when he saw her shy expression."I'm also a part of this family. That's such a lewd punishment. I object." After saying that, she pulled away from him and walked toward the living room, mumbling to herself. She knew he was trying to use a subtle approach to take advantage of her for his own benefit.He immediately followed after her. As he watched her alluring figure, his eyes glinted, and he

Lucille used to keep things to herself. But it seemed that she'd been affected by Spencer since they'd gotten together. She couldn't keep things to herself anymore and always felt the need to share everything with him.Spencer frowned, but the knot between his brows soon relaxed. He smiled and played along as he said gently, "Yes. I'm curious. Why don't you tell me? I'm listening."She spent eight minutes vividly recounting the conversation.Looking at his calm expression, she was puzzled as she asked, "Why aren't you saying anything?"He returned to his senses at her question and cleared his throat. There was no way he would tell her he'd been so captivated by her voice that he'd momentarily forgotten to respond.After he returned to his senses, he gazed at her with admiration. "You're very smart. You've learned how to solve problems without using force."Hearing this, Lucille thought Spencer was behaving weirdly. She cocked an eyebrow and stared at him. "Why do I feel like you

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
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
