A Heartwarming Marriage Chapter 486
Connor called Spencer. "Taylor's made a run for it."Spencer said coldly, "Find him, dead or alive.""Got it."…Meanwhile, Taylor sat in a room in an underground base. He was watching the screens before him with relish. One showed Connor arriving at his villa with a few people and coming back out shortly after. The other showed the inside of a car, where Lila sat.Her hands and legs were bound, and her mouth was taped shut. She looked a little disheveled, but her expression was relatively calm.Taylor couldn't help smiling menacingly at the sight. It was disgusting. He hadn't abducted Lila to threaten Lucille. No, it was because he wanted Spencer to lose the two most important women in his life.Once a person had a weakness, it was easy to use it against them. Even if Taylor ultimately lost the fight for the Layton family, he wouldn't allow Spencer to have a happily ever after. He wanted the latter to spend the rest of his life in hatred and anguish.Spencer thought he could

"Boss, the tracker shows that Mrs. Layton is moving rapidly." Seamus handed his tablet to Spencer. It showed a red dot speeding ahead.Spencer's brows were tightly furrowed as he ordered, "Check where she's going!"Seamus immediately turned to his laptop. Soon, he pulled up a terrain map of the direction Lucille was heading toward. "Based on the direction Mrs. Layton is headed, Solnine Bridge is about 1.5 miles ahead of her. Solnine River is beneath the bridge.""How long will we take to get there?" Spencer asked."About 30 to 40 minutes."…Meanwhile, Lucille finally saw a car parked on Solnine Bridge after racing forward at full speed for a few minutes. It was on the opposite side of traffic, though.The screeching of a car's brakes pulled Lila back to her senses. She looked up to see a slender figure jump out of the car opposite hers. It was Lucille.She wondered what Lucille was doing there when she saw the latter deftly jump over the median barrier and run to her.Lucille

Lila hadn't expected to experience an abduction at her age. It hadn't happened to her when she was younger. She didn't have any regrets in life, really.She'd married a great guy and had given birth to two outstanding sons. She even had a wonderful daughter-in-law. Her only regret was that she couldn't witness Spencer and Lucille's wedding."I promised Spencer I'd bring you home safe and sound, Mom," Lucille said. She bent down to undo the cable around Lila's foot. "Don't worry, okay? I won't let anything happen to you."She'd observed the cable earlier. As long as the pressure on the cable remained, the bomb wouldn't go off. That way, she would have time to get Lila out safely.But first, she needed to untie the rope around Lila's ankles. The cable was tied to the ropes. If she could arrive at this conclusion, so could Taylor. That was why the rope around Lila's ankles had been tied in a complex manner. Untying them would take time, and time was something Lucille didn't have."Af

Lila was telling Lucille about Spencer and Seth's childhood when Lucille suddenly said, "We're good to go, Mom."Lucille had untied the rope around Lila's ankles but couldn't move. She could only tell Lila to lift her feet and move them away slowly."Slowly lift your feet, Mom," she said. "Be careful not to touch the rope I'm holding.""Okay. But what about you?"Lucille looked up at her, her smile comforting. "Don't worry. I'll be fine."Taylor heard their conversation through the surveillance equipment in the car. He hadn't expected Lucille to be able to get Lila free. It looked like he'd underestimated her.She was intelligent, beautiful, calm in the face of adversity, and decisive when the situation called for it. She was a rare species. It was too bad she was about to leave the world.Lila held her breath as she carefully lifted her feet and moved away. Just then, Lucille glanced at the front of the car. She saw a decorative animal's eye hanging before the passenger seat; a

Taylor laughed while saying, "If you get out of the car now, my men will immediately shoot Lila dead."Lucille finally felt threatened. She couldn't outrun a sniper's bullet no matter how fast she was, and she wasn't sure how many people Taylor had hidden in the shadows.She mocked, saying, "This is all you're capable of, Taylor. Using innocent people to achieve your objective is the only thing you can do."Taylor knew what she meant but didn't let it bother him. "It doesn't matter what my methods are as long as the result is what I want."Lucille sat in the backseat. She had nothing to hide—Taylor could see everything she was doing anyway. He suddenly said, "I'm pretty reluctant to part with you, actually. You tick all the boxes for what I like in a woman."She almost rolled her eyes. "You're a freak."Her left hand was in the surveillance camera's blind spot, so she secretly pulled out her phone and put it behind her. She knew exactly where to press, even if she couldn't see

Taylor laughed and clapped. Lucille acted like she didn't hear him and said, "One of my guesses must be correct. I hope you'll stick to your word."He said, "I didn't promise you anything, though. I only asked you to guess."She knew he wouldn't have agreed to it but still frowned and feigned anger. "You played me!"He snickered. "This is a gift I'm definitely giving out today."Just then, the sound of a helicopter approaching rent the air. At the same time, Lila's expression changed drastically. She ran toward the car from where she stood, shouting, "Get out of the car, Lucy!"It wasn't because she'd seen the helicopter. No, it was because there were two huge trucks speeding toward the car Lucille was in.Lucille saw Lila running to her and glanced in the rearview mirror to see the trucks. She bolted out of the car without hesitation. She and Lila ran to each other.As soon as she grabbed Lila's hand, there was a large explosion behind her. She and Lila felt like their eardrums

Lucille knew she had no choice but to jump into Solnine River when grabbing Lila's hand. They had a sea of fire behind them and an unfathomable river before them.She could only choose the river. It was filled with unimaginable danger, but at least there was still a sliver of hope for survival. She was willing to risk everything for that sliver. Comparatively, the explosion left them with no hope.The explosion, the impact from the trucks crashing into the car, and the hidden sniper could all cause fatal damage. Lucille couldn't guarantee survival, especially since she had Lila with her. She wouldn't give up so easily, though.After falling into the water, Lucille held Lila's hand tightly. The impact of the explosion and the sudden loss of gravity made Lila pass out the moment they fell in the water.Lucille fought to stay conscious with sheer willpower. She pushed Lila toward the water's surface. The current had brought them downstream; Lucille ignored the pain in her back and loo

"Hey, Spence, where are you going?" Ethan quickly grabbed hold of Spence, stopping him from moving forward.Zachary, along with Seamus, Mack, and the others, had already followed the rescue team down. Ethan stayed above to keep an eye on Spencer. In his condition, there was no way they could let him go down there."Let me go!" Spencer shot him a sharp look. "I'm going down!""No way," Ethan insisted. "Don't worry. There are professionals down there, and Zach's with them too."Spencer pressed his pale lips together. "Don't make me say it again." His cold presence was overwhelming, making everyone feel uneasy."Spence, I'll go down. You and Dad wait up here," Seth said. His usual laid-back attitude was replaced with a rare seriousness.Spencer shook off Ethan's hands and said, "Keep an eye on Dad!"With that, he headed toward the path the rescue team had taken.Solnine River's currents were rapid. With it being winter, a chilling wind swept through the area. It was already 5:30 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
