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

    Spencer narrowed his eyes and stared at her. It was the first time he'd heard her speak so sarcastically.She wasn't afraid of his gaze. If they were to argue about who was right or wrong, she believed that her mistakes were nothing compared to his. At least, that was how she saw it.Spencer's expression instantly softened, and he let out a hearty laugh.As she listened to his laughter, her face scrunched up. She was being serious, yet he dared to laugh."You still have the audacity to laugh?"Spencer's heart nearly melted at the sight of her eyes and the cute way she puffed her cheeks in anger. Instead of responding to her, he used the most direct method to tell her.He reached out to lift her chin. While she was still confused, he kissed her soft, red lips with his cool, thin lips. He skillfully probed his tongue into her mouth to taste her. Then, he grabbed her waist and pulled her toward him.Initially, she'd wanted to push him away because she was still angry. However, she

    "A certain mischievous woman with a multi-faceted personality has my heart. How could I be interested in someone else?"The mischievous Lucille smirked.Then, Spencer tapped on the spot between her brows with his index finger and asked angrily, "Why? Do you want me to become the president's son-in-law?"She cocked her head to the side and thought before she said, "Why not? After all, he is the president. You'll be able to look after me in the future."He couldn't help but laugh and picked up where she left off. "What role do you expect me to play to have your back?""Maybe as brother, friend, or lover. Take your pick," she quickly responded with her nonsense."Ouch… It hurts…"He knocked her forehead and said, "In your dreams."She said, "I would love to, but that depends on whether you've got what it takes."He asked, "Are you trying to add divorce to your life experience?"She replied, "Why not? Then, my life would be complete. I've got what others have and don't have. Isn'

    Ever since Spencer had left without saying a word, Vivian had been lost in thought in her room. She'd never expected to see him again. Although she had countless admirers pursuing her every year, she'd never been interested in any of them since she already had a certain someone in her heart. Since fate had guided them to meet again, Vivian decided not to be passive this time. She made a call and asked someone to look into something. Meanwhile, two people stood in a dark corner near the backdoor of the presidential palace. While it wasn't easy to make them out, their voices indicated that it was a man and a woman."I apologize for my incompetence. I can't find the lost emblem." "You idiot!" A reprimanding voice echoed through the darkness. "I've already searched the entire presidential palace and couldn't locate it. Perhaps it was sent to the garbage dump." "You better hope it's at the garbage dump! If someone found that, we're screwed!" The emblem should never have e

    In the end, Lucille was forced to get out of the bed. After simply cleaning herself, she put on a jacket and went downstairs. Several men sat in the living room, staring awkwardly at each other. "Jonathan?" Lucille rubbed her eyes, confirming she hadn't mistaken Jonathan for someone else. "Lucy!" Jonathan jolted up from the couch when he saw Lucille and quickly rushed to embrace her in excitement. "Umm…" Lucille was hugged before she could react. However, Spencer wasn't jealous and watched calmly on the couch. Perhaps he was delighted after Jonathan had acknowledged him as his brother-in-law. Lucille lightly patted Jonathan's back. "Hey, Jon, you're choking me…"Jonathan held Lucille too tightly in his embrace. Lucille hadn't completely woken up and still felt sore all over her body. She was unable to withstand such a passionate embrace. "Oops! Sorry, Lucy! It's because I missed you so much." Jonathan was a gentle sweetheart. He was young and handsome and talked very

    Lucille didn't pay attention to Spencer and Ruben's conversation. She believed in Spencer's capabilities. Besides, Ruben was no match for him anyway. It wasn't like Lucille didn't look up to Ruben. But because she knew both of them too well. She believed the two would interact harmoniously. But right now, Lucille had another important problem. How was she going to slip away from Spencer and head to Fallbrook Town today? This was a headache for her. Lucille racked her brain but couldn't come up with a perfect idea. If she told Spencer she wanted to return to Sylvania, he definitely wouldn't let her go alone. And whatever excuses she gave would never work on him. Oh, what a conundrum! Lucille let out a long sigh. Jonathan stayed seated beside her and noticed she suddenly seemed downcast. He asked worriedly, "What's wrong, Lucy?" Lucille averted her gaze and turned toward him. "I'm wondering what kind of girl will match such a smart, capable, attractive man like our Jo

    There was no way Lucille could keep her promise to stay put and not go anywhere. Now that was an issue! But she still obediently nodded regardless. She knew she was going to break her promise, so she thought, "Whatever you want me to do in the future, I'll agree without any condition. Consider that a compensation for not listening to you right now." Spencer didn't stay for any longer. He left with Kent after ten minutes, leaving Bethany with Lucille. "Why didn't you go with them, Bethany?" Lucille sat with her legs crossed on the couch as she stared at Bethany, who stood before her, with her eyes wide. Bethany could sense some disdain in Lucille's eyes. She thought she had done something wrong and asked timidly, "Have I done something wrong, Mrs. Layton? Do you not want me to be with you?" Lucille quickly sensed the nervousness in Bethany's tone. "No, no, you did nothing wrong. It's me. I've done something wrong." Bethany was confused. "Huh?" Without explaining furthe

    At 11:30 pm, the members of Echelon 103 finally moved. The man who was monitoring their movements quickly returned to the room and informed Lucille and the others. "Mr. Gale, Ms. Lucy, they've left the guesthouse," the man reported. Ruben said nothing but turned to Lucille. Lucille narrowed her eyes and said lowly, "Elara, Mildred, you two stay here as support and continue monitoring their guesthouse. Immediately report to us if anything happens." Elara and Mildred replied, "Roger, Lucy."Lucille thought briefly before turning to Ruben. "Ben, ask your men to stay put here too." Having too many people tag along wasn't necessarily a good thing either. Ruben nodded, then started ordering his men. Then, Lucille left with Bethany, Jaden, and Beatrice. …There were six members of Echelon 103. They arrived at an abandoned place in Fallbrook Town, filled with nothing but wild grass and darkness. All along, Lucille and the others had been silently trailing them, never too

    Ruben turned to Beatrice and said, "Beatrice, call Elara to keep track of the supreme chief's location." "On it, Mr. Gale," Beatrice replied. They were all members of the Otearl Alliance, and each of them had a micro-tracking device in their bodies. It was made out of a special material that could bypass all forms of inspection machines. The purpose of the tracking devices was to help the other members of the Otearl Alliance track down and save them if something happened to them during their missions. Bethany had no idea who these people, who'd appeared around Lucille, were. However, she knew who Ruben was. So, she assumed they were his subordinates. But Ruben had told Beatrice to keep track of the "supreme chief's" location. Did that mean Beatrice and Jaden were Lucille's subordinates? Suddenly, Bethany remembered what had happened at Ghosthorn in Marvonia. She'd found out that Lucille was the mysterious leader of the Otearl Alliance. She connected the dots and realized th

    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
