After several sleepless nights and intense study by Anthony, Royce finally showed some signs of progress. He felt a sense of relief when Royce slowly opened his eyes.Anthony was thrilled. The first thing he did when he left the lab was call Lena.Lena's attitude toward him has always been calm. Even if she received his call, she remained extremely casual."What's going on?" Lena asked.Anthony stood in the manor's garden with a smile on his face. His voice sounded as gentle and pleasant as a summer breeze."Honey, can you come over to Amberville? I have a surprise for you," he said.He had been planning to wait until their wedding to tell Lena about Royce.However, after thinking about how he had already told Margot, he figured that she would tell Natalie sooner or later. Eventually, even Lena would come to know about what he did.Instead of putting it off and risking her finding out later, it would be better to tell her in advance.Maybe if he mentioned it earlier, Lena migh
Edna didn't think much of Daniel's action. She told Rosa she was going out and then left with Daniel.…Anthony took Zyla to the lab to meet Royce, who had just woken up.Royce had woken up, but he was still lying down and was unable to move. He was left speechless as he observed his own situation. He was especially stunned when Anthony brought Zyla to his bedside.Why was he here? Wasn't he… already dead?Anthony stood nearby, ignoring Royce's shocked expression. He turned to Zyla and asked, "Do you recognize this person?"Zyla blinked at Royce, shook her head innocently, and smiled playfully at Anthony.Anthony felt a bit helpless by this and turned his attention to Royce."When you're better, take Zyla with you and live your own lives. Don't get involved with any reckless behavior again."Royce looked completely bewildered as he stared at Anthony in total confusion. He had no idea what was going on.Anthony explained, "When I took you to the crematorium, you were still bre
The next day, Anthony was waiting for Lena at the airport on time. He also knew how to be romantic and carried a bouquet of fresh flowers in his arms. He stood at the airport arrival gate dressed in a casual suit, looking tall, well-built, and handsome.His appearance also caught the attention of many young women.Anthony couldn't contain his excitement as soon as Lena emerged with her luggage. He quickly made his way through the crowd and headed directly toward her.Even from a distance, Lena was able to spot him.She had just stopped when Anthony quickly walked over, pulled her into an embrace, and whispered cheesy words in her ear. "I haven't seen you for a few days, and it feels like forever. Honey, I really miss you."Lena felt a bit uncomfortable and quickly pushed him away. "There are so many people watching. Aren't you embarrassed?"Anthony laughed and said, "Why should I be embarrassed about hugging my girlfriend?"He handed her a bouquet and then pulled over her luggag
"I agreed to the three years, and that's what I'll stick to. I won't shorten the duration," Lena said.She didn't really have any strong feelings for Anthony for now. He would only push her further away if he continued to pressure her.Anthony noticed Lena's attitude was becoming colder, so he immediately stopped talking. He was worried about accidentally making her upset.Lena decided to take the initiative to restart the conversation. "I heard that Edna is at Alice Manor?"Upon seeing Anthony's pitiful expression, she couldn't help but feel a sense of sympathy for him.Anthony responded with a hum, saying, "Once we've eaten, I'll take you straight to Alice Manor.""Aren't you going to meet up with Margot and the others?" Lena asked.Anthony shook his head and said, "Didn't I tell you there was a surprise? The surprise is at Alice Manor."At the mention of a surprise, Lena felt a surge of curiosity. She had no idea what Anthony was up to or what he was hiding.But she was wor
Anthony held Lena by the hand and stood in front of Royce, giving him a look signaling to stay quiet.Of course, at that point, Royce didn't yet know that Lena was his sister.Watching Anthony's actions, he lay there utterly confused, unsure of what Anthony was planning to do.Anthony gently loosened the tie from Lena's face, deliberately blocking her view of Royce, and smiled as he said, "Guess what I'm going to show you."Lena hadn't spotted Royce yet, so she quickly assessed her surroundings.It looked like there were many bottles and jars around, and a little further away, there were some people wearing blue sterile suits. It definitely seems like a place where research was being conducted.She had no idea what Anthony was up to and frowned as she asked, "What? Is this the surprise you were talking about?""Look who it is."Anthony didn't keep her in suspense any longer and stepped aside.In the next moment, Lena's gaze unintentionally fell on Royce lying on the bed in fro
Was it really his sister, Yelena, who was declared dead just two months after she was born?Royce couldn't quite believe it as he looked at Anthony. He was so overwhelmed with emotion that his voice became hoarse. "Are you kidding me? My little sister died when she was just two months old. How can she be…""I'm not joking with you. Otherwise, why would I bring her to meet you, and why would I save you?"Lena kneeled by the bedside, holding Royce's hand. She was unable to stop crying. "Royce, I really am Yelena. Anthony didn't lie to you. I truly am your sister."She definitely felt incredibly excited and happy, but she just couldn't control herself, and her tears kept flowing uncontrollably.At that moment, she didn't know how to describe her feelings. The feeling of regaining something that was lost gave her the feeling it was more precious than anything she could ever own now.Royce also couldn't hold back as tears streamed down his face.Royce believed what Anthony said after
After Lena responded to Anthony, she moved out of his embrace and looked at Royce, who was on the bed."Royce, how are you feeling? Is there anything wrong or uncomfortable with your body?" she asked.She reached out to grasp Royce's wrist to check his pulse and assess his condition.Royce watched Lena's actions with his eyes still reddened. "Knowing that you're still alive, my feelings right now are just like yours—I'm very excited."Yelena, is Pamela doing well at home?"Lena finished checking his pulse and looked at Royce. She nodded as she barely held back her overflowing tears."Yes, Pamela is doing well. Once you recover, I'll take you home. She'll be really happy to know you're still alive.""Alright, you go ahead and leave with Anthony. I want to take a rest."Although Royce had woken up, his physical condition still wasn't the best. He felt a bit exhausted, probably due to his overly intense emotions at the moment, and he wanted to take a nap.Lena could also tell tha
"Because you gave me such a wonderful surprise, I'll try not to argue with you anymore in the future," Lena promised.Anthony gazed intently at Lena, gently raising his hand to touch her neck and pressing his lips together."So, can I kiss you now?" he asked.Lena remained silent, but her gaze fixed on his lips.It had been a long time since Anthony had kissed someone, and he was starting to feel out of practice. He looked at Lena's lips and slowly leaned in to kiss her.Just as the two were about to kiss, they suddenly heard Zyla's youthful voice shouting from a distance, "Hehe! Kissing will lead to having a baby, which means miss is going to have a baby."When she heard that, Lena instinctively avoided Anthony and turned around. The moment she saw Zyla, she froze.Looking at Anthony again, she asked incredulously, "W-Why is she here too?"Anthony explained, "The poison that Zyla was exposed to is the same as your brother's. After I saved her, she became mentally impaired afte
