"I'll make lunch for you!" she suddenly offered, eager to please him, before darting into the kitchen.Lucius's eyes gleamed with satisfaction as he settled comfortably on the sofa, anticipating the delicious meal his partner would soon serve.He thoroughly enjoyed the lunch she prepared, relishing
When the car door opened, Ella stepped out of the cab.Lucius creased his brow, his expression turning cold and somber as he saw her. He dropped his head, dialed a number, and said in a stern voice, "Keep your daughter in line."Ella was already standing in front of him as he finished. She unzipped
"What's the matter?"Before Lorelei could respond, the door swung open.Belle strode in, sporting high heels and a visible air of distress. It was clear she hadn't had much luck. She exaggerated her hip movements, prompting Violet's worry about her well-being for fear of harming her unborn child.Lo
Violet and Patrick anxiously lingered outside the room.Violet could only describe the unfolding situation as distressing. Even though she hadn't provoked Belle, she felt ashamed to face Patrick."It's alright. Everything will be okay," Patrick reassured her.With difficulty, Violet nodded and reach
"Where?" Patrick's sensitivity heightened after the morning's events, and he continued to check on her.Belle grunted, shooting a cold glare at Astrid and silently warning her. Astrid stepped back, inadvertently bumping into the wall. She hastily gathered her belongings and hurried away."It's alrig
Violet couldn't comprehend how this could be happening to her."Before long, clients will come and choose you. They might not match Master Lucius's wealth, but they'll ensure you live comfortably. If they take a liking to you, you might not have to sell yourself anymore," the madam explained."This
Astrid dared not advance any further. Her face turned pale as she glared angrily at Edur, unable to utter a word.Clearly, Lucius was more composed than Astrid. He stated, "You've gone through all this trouble. I doubt you did it just to see me. State your demands."Edur nodded approvingly and remar
Using the child as a bargaining chip, Patrick had no choice but to concede.Reluctantly, he agreed, "Okay, we can proceed with the remarriage. But this phone belongs to someone else, and it must be returned to its rightful owner."Taking the phone, he left.Belle trailed behind him for a few steps,
Lucius simply nodded, glancing at the papers on his desk but not bothering to touch them. "Take those away and get the procedures done as fast as possible," he instructed."Sure thing, Master Lucius," Hector responded, collecting the papers. He hesitated for a moment before speaking up again. "Oh
"Is the child Lucius's?""Of course."Agatha didn't know how she managed to leave the building; she only felt a chill running through her body. When she said those words, she had no idea Violet was pregnant. What had she been trying to accomplish with her actions? Even she couldn't figure it out.
When they hopped into the car, it took Violet a while to compose herself. She gently pulled away from Oliver's grasp and said, "I'm okay now. Let me go.""How are you okay? I saw you in that accident; I can't just ignore it," Oliver retorted, his tone softening despite his frustration. He didn't wa
She couldn’t put aside her own feelings, but she had to think about the baby's health.Oliver managed a strained smile. He couldn't express what he wanted to say, so he simply helped her out of the hospital.Back at home, Violet ushered him toward the door, saying, "I'm back home now. You should go
"Master Lucius," whispered the assistant as he leaned in close to Lucius's ear.His voice was barely audible to anyone else, but Sarah watched as Lucius clenched his glass so tightly that it seemed like it might shatter.Lucius didn't say a word. After the assistant left, everything returned to norm
However, Sarah didn't seem in a hurry to leave. She maintained her smile and offered, "Is there something you need from Lucius? I can pass on the message to you."Her seemingly polite offer was clearly a jab at Violet.Violet's expression turned cold. She retorted, "Thank you, Ms. Meyer. But Lucius
Violet cried in Patrick's embrace, but she couldn't bring herself to tell him what had happened.Patrick didn’t push her, worried that she might feel worse. He left after making her a promise to reach out if she needed anything.Violet agreed, but she knew she should rely on Patrick less.After fini
The glass he held shattered due to his rage.Sarah leisurely sipped her wine, her eyes carrying a profound meaning. Lucius used her to provoke Violet, which was despicable, but she found solace in that woman's words.Swoosh! Lucius stood up abruptly."Master Lucius," a subordinate rushed into the ro
"Dad, don't worry. I'm okay," Violet reassured Patrick with a faint smile.Patrick noticed her weak smile. He wanted to ask more, but Violet quickly cut off the conversation, saying she had work to do."Okay." Patrick nodded reluctantly, deciding not to pry further. "Astrid mentioned you haven't bee
