A Heartwarming Marriage Chapter 627
Generally speaking, no one—not even Alfred—would enter Alexander's study without his permission.Ruben worked on breaking into the safes while Lucille walked around the study. Suddenly, she realized something. She asked, "Don't you think this study is a little too clean?"She didn't mean that it had been wiped and dusted.Ruben was focused on breaking into the safes, so he didn't hear what she said. It didn't bother her. Her point was that she didn't notice a single family photo in the study. In hindsight, she realized the living room downstairs had no photos, either.It was odd not to have any photos of one's family in one's home, wasn't it? Lucille circled back to the desk and sat down. She opened a drawer to see an old pocket watch inside.She wasn't interested in Alexander's personal belongings—she only thought the patterns on it were familiar. It was as if she'd seen them somewhere before.Nothing came to mind. She glanced at it again but didn't notice anything special, so s

"What are you doing here, Vivi?" Alexander asked. The realization dawned on him when he saw the book in Lucille's hand. "Did you come to take a book from my study again?"Fortunately, Lucille was quick to accept reality. She composed herself and said, "Yes, Father."The way she addressed him wasn't any different from usual, but Alexander couldn't help thinking something was different. He couldn't pinpoint it, though."Well, since you're here, let me introduce you to an important guest," Alexander said. There was something commanding about him that made one obey. This was Lucille's first time coming into such close contact with him.He'd been handsome as a young man. Despite being past 50 now, he still looked good. The passage of time had only added a sense of maturity to him, increasing his charm."Mr. Layton, this is my eldest daughter, Vivian Vonridge." Alexander looked at the man. Then, he turned to Lucille and said, "Vivi, this is Spencer Layton, the head of the Layton family

Lucille ignored Alexander, who was standing nearby, as well as the photo she had seen in the study.She suppressed her frustration and maintained her smile. "It's rumored that you are an honorable man who is self-disciplined. Not only are you aloof, but you also don't have a woman by your side. It's my pleasure that you are so gentle with me. "However, I heard that you have found a good partner for yourself. If we are alone together tonight, would it cause some gossip?"This time Spencer smiled and didn't pick up where Lucille left off.Lucille was annoyed to see the smile on his noble and handsome face.She ignored him and looked at Alexander. "Father, I have something to do. I will leave first. I don't want to interrupt your conversation with Mr. Layton."With that, she strode past them without waiting for Alexander to nod.Alexander glanced at Vivian, who had just walked away, and a hint of confusion flashed across his shrewd eyes. If he wasn't mistaken, he saw her look angr

"Lucy, no one followed us." Beatrice calmly looked behind and noticed that no one followed them.They quickly entered a nearby corner and then into the garage.Beatrice said, "Lucy, Mr. Gale and Jaden are waiting for us outside."Both of them got into a silver car. Then, Mildred's voice came through again. "Lucy, they will reach in another half an hour. Make sure not to run into them."Lucille lowered her voice and said, "Okay. Got it."Meanwhile, Evelyn was about to go to the main wing. As soon as she reached the entrance, Alfred stopped her. "Mrs. Vonridge, Mr. President is entertaining an important guest." Evelyn knew exactly what he meant. In the past, he would always stop her whenever she came."Alfred, I know an important guest came to visit Alexander, so I purposely had someone to prepare supper. Here it is." Evelyn smiled gently while maintaining her elegance and politeness.She was the daughter of the Sterling family and was raised to be a socialite since childhood. S

When Vivian returned, she immediately went to the main wing to look for Alexander.It just so happened that Alexander and Spencer were already done with their discussions."Father." Vivian wore a white dress and high heels as she came in in a hurry.Even Alfred was caught off guard. After all, the security guard had just informed him that she'd just gone out. He wondered why she had returned so soon and even changed her outfit."Father, I'm glad that you are okay. You scared me to death." Vivian breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Alexander was safe.Meanwhile, Alexander and Alfred were puzzled by her words."Vivi, what happened to you? Didn't we just meet half an hour ago? By the way, where are you planning to go dressed like that?" Alexander frowned when he saw her outfit.It was obvious that she had changed her outfit. Vivian told Alexander about her stolen car and everything that had happened today.Alexander was at a loss for words. His expression darkened after

Spencer sat on a couch. His chiseled face looked cold, and his eyes were dark with unfathomable emotions.Vivian was somewhat down when she saw him look indifferent. She was always admired by others and became the center of attention whenever she went. However, Spencer didn't even bother to look at her and even maintained a cold expression.If Alexander were here, he would be dumbfounded. Just a moment ago, Spencer had been smiling and joking with the fake Vivian, but now he looked indifferent.However, Vivian wasn't the type who would give up because of a little difficulty.She'd met Spencer in her junior year. Her college happened to be his alma mater. It had been the college anniversary that year, and Spencer was invited. She had been the school council president, so she'd had the chance to join the management to welcome Spencer.He'd had a strong presence and gave off a noble, charming vibe.After the college anniversary had ended, Vivian had had someone look into Spencer.

So, why had Spencer suddenly come from Sylvania to Arcania and even gone to the presidential palace?Lucille wondered if he'd just been making an excuse to see Vivian and not Alexander.She suddenly realized that she was overwhelmed by her thoughts and couldn't stop overthinking.She had never been like this before. She wondered what was wrong with her and if it had to do with Vivian's sudden appearance by Spencer's side.Lucille wanted to confront Spencer and ask him for an explanation.He'd actually smiled at Vivian. Lucille thought she was generous and wouldn't mind, but she realized she was very petty now and that she was deeply bothered.Another possibility was that this was because of Vivian. After all, she was related to Alexander, and Lucille hadn't figured out why there were so many photos of Alexander and Jane.She wondered what Alexander's role was and if he had anything to do with Jane. She needed to investigate all of this."By the way, I just remembered something.

At the highest floor of the hotel, Lucille returned to her suite and headed to the bathroom.When she was done with her shower, she opened the door. The moment she stepped out of the bathroom, she frowned because someone was in the living room.Ruben wouldn't usually barge in without her permission. It was the same for the others as well.She narrowed her eyes, which glinted coldly with murderous intent.She was only wearing a white towel. So, she put on a bathrobe.She tiptoed toward the door. Fortunately, she had the habit of locking the door whenever she returned to the hotel room.She pressed her ear against the door for a while to check if there was any movement. She frowned without realizing it.She heard a woman's voice outside and wondered why it sounded familiar.After a few minutes, she changed her clothes.Lucille opened the door from the inside, and the door happened to face the living room.Meanwhile, Bethany, who was standing in the living room reporting to Spen

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
