Married a Secret Billionaire Chapter 1864
Wilfred furrowed his brow. "Ms. Kinglake, you..." Because of Anya, Whitney's relationship with him had plummeted to an icy point, almost reaching an irreconcilable state.Therefore, Whitney never participated in events where the Newhouses were present. Her attendance at this banquet today was akin to the sun rising from the west for Wilfred.Despite that, her words now were a bit too much.Wilfred spoke sternly. "I only hold admiration for Ms. Squire.""Whether you admire her or not, that's something only you know!" Whitney glanced at him disdainfully, her expression serious. "Wilfred, I must remind you—Maisie belongs to Daniel. They'll be getting married soon. Although I'm not entirely pleased with this prospective niece-in-law, I can accept her as long as my nephew likes her."But... certain old toads should stop dreaming of enjoying the luxuries of life! These toads should take a good look at their own character by the waterside!"Wilfred was infuriated but unable to retort

Wilfred sneered. He didn't even bother to look at her and turned to leave."Wilfred!" Delilah suppressed her emotions and approached him, speaking in a low voice. "Even if you don't care for Harvey, think about yourself... I heard that Harvey has been with Toph Hamerton, but now both of them are missing.""What did you say?" Wilfred was taken aback, his brow furrowing. "The second Hamerton heir?""Yes." Delilah looked at him. "Perhaps, as you said, Harvey and Toph might be off somewhere, but I tried calling Harvey's phone just now, and there was no answer. Wilfred, leaving Harvey aside, the Hamertons aren't someone to mess with! If something happens involving the Hamertons at our event, then it could—""Go and find them immediately!" Wilfred changed his stance immediately. "Inform security and search every possible place in the hotel. Ensure Toph's safety!"Delilah watched him leave hurriedly, her gaze as cold as ice. Her heart felt like a stone sinking deeper into the sea, hopele

However, they were completely clueless. Where were they supposed to look for Toph?Daniel and Maisie rushed over, bringing the news of Harvey's disappearance."This matter is quite suspicious. I believe it's related to the Newhouses," Daniel asserted. "Wilfred is secretly sending people to search, and the Newhouses are in chaos...""Bad luck! How did we run into such a family?" Chris cursed. "They look harmonious on the surface but rotten to the core! Not a single good soul in that family!"Lena patted his shoulder, giving him a look."How about this?" Maisie suggested softly, "I'll take care of Sephy tonight. You all go and find Toph."Daniel, your people are familiar with the city, and they're all experts. Let them take Zuko and search. Sephy and I will wait for you at home."Daniel hesitated. "But some of my bodyguards are specifically responsible for your safety. If I pull them away, what will you do?""Come and stay with me!" Whitney's bright voice broke the silence.Mais

Harvey smiled but didn't say anything more. He calmed down and pieced together everything that had transpired before they arrived here.It was Jodie who directed those so-called doctors, injecting Toph's neck while he was distracted, then letting those people subdue him. After that, he lost consciousness and woke up lying there. He knew that Jodie wanted to put him in a life-threatening situation, but he hadn't expected her to be so insane, daring even to lay a finger on a Hamerton!Toph struggled to move, feeling sore all over."There's a needle mark on your neck." Harvey leaned over to check and said, "It's slightly swollen. Based on the swelling, it hasn't been more than 24 hours. It also means that it hasn't been 24 hours since we arrived.""How do you know?" Toph was surprised."I've been jabbed so many times I've figured out the patterns!" Harvey leaned against the wall, hands behind his head, smiling at him."Jodie... won't starve us to death here, right?""Are you scared

Whitney was amused and affectionately hugged her."But I don't like your teacher." Whitney pretended to speak seriously."No, you do!" Persephone revealed, "You snuck into her room last night to cover her with a blanket!""You..." Whitney was taken aback."Didn't expect that, huh?" Persephone smirked mischievously. "I couldn't sleep alone last night, so I snuck into Ms. Squire's room! Why else do you think her door was slightly open?"Whitney chuckled and lightly tapped her on the backside, pretending to be angry.The butler hurriedly approached and said in a low voice, "Madam, I have the results from the investigation you asked for last time..."Whitney straightened up. She handed Persephone to the nanny and walked aside with the butler."What's the situation?"The butler produced the note and briefly explained, "These numbers are the password for a safe deposit box at Cumulus Bank. The person who opened the safe deposit box... is Ms. Anya Campbell."Whitney's heart leaped t

Maisie walked out of her room with a heavy heart. Seeing Daniel, who had just returned to the island, she hurried over and hugged him. Only in his arms could she finally let go of her lingering worries.Daniel smiled. The sweet scent on her swept away all the weariness of the entire day."Sephy just fell asleep," Maisie said softly. "Today, she even asked me if she could stay on the island for a few more days. It seems she doesn't want to return to her parents just yet.""Well, let her stay here," Daniel said, looking at her. "Aunt Whitney loves children, and Sephy won't feel lonely with Tigger around.""Is it..." Maisie hesitated. "No news about Toph yet?"Daniel furrowed his brow, nodding in concern."No word about Harvey either," he said. "Wilfred is afraid of offending the Hamertons, mobilizing all his people these past days, but still no results... I suspect there's a mole in the Newhouses."Maisie's gaze was also filled with worry. It had only been two days since Toph went

Harvey's gaze was filled with suspicion. Perhaps growing up in an environment devoid of security, he never expected or believed in familial bonds. Still, he longed for the kind of kinship that could be a steadfast support at any time and place."What else?" Toph glanced at him, smiling. "My brother always held me dear. I'm his most beloved little brother. Who else would come to rescue me if not him?"Curious, Harvey propped himself up with both hands and slowly crawled over. Only then did he carefully examine the chip embedded within the belt buckle. It was a small, intricate piece, well-hidden and not easily detectable."Our grandfather gave this to us." Toph began to chatter. "This thing is something only the Southeast Aciatic military uses. It's handy for them to communicate with teammates in unexpected situations during missions!"Ever since my brother and I got these belts, we knew how to use them. He once jokingly said he hoped we'd never have to use them... Hey, but now we d

Daniel gently knocked on Whitney's study door, carrying late-night snacks with him.After a while, a faint sound came from inside. "Come in."Daniel entered to find Whitney staring at a pile of manuscripts on the desk with an exhausted look. He frowned and placed the snacks on the nearby coffee table."Aunt, I heard you haven't eaten anything all night. Come, have something first."Whitney's stomach seemed to respond with a growl upon smelling the aroma of the snacks. "What's this?"Daniel smiled. "Give it a try first."The late-night snacks consisted of a bowl of chicken soup, some vegetarian dumplings, and a plate of refreshing fruits. There was also a piece of low-sugar cake.As soon as Whitney took a sip of the soup, her taste buds seemed to awaken, and she praised between bites, "Though the ingredients are simple, it's so delicious! Hey, when did our two chefs learn this skill? It's different!""Your taste buds are amazing!" Daniel chuckled. "Our chefs didn't make this."

"Only Morpheus and Sephy aren't like that. They respect and understand me. Sephy told me once, 'One's appearance doesn't indicate anything. A clean heart is what truly matters!'"Rebecca chuckled dismissively."You're a psychologist, yet you fail to grasp this," Wynn said coldly. "Actually, I pity you. You could have stepped out, yet you insist on dwelling on the trivialities."Morpheus has psychological barriers, a consequence of returning from the battlefield. No one has cured his PTSD except Sephy... It shows that a true psychologist is never just a title."What truly heals everything is love!"-One particular morning a year later, sunlight streamed through sheer cream curtains onto the floor.Persephone was sound asleep when she suddenly felt something pressing down on her... Then, Morpheus' strong arms wrapped around her slender waist. She drowsily opened her eyes to find him sealing her lips with heated kisses.Over the year, his kissing skills had improved, and Persepho

With Morpheus' involvement, the police didn't slack off and quickly found Rebecca.That day, Rebecca was preparing to escape from a small port. The boat she had found was an illegally operating one.As she was about to board, piercing sirens sounded nearby.The boat owner, enraged upon hearing the sirens, grabbed Rebecca by her hair and pushed her into the water.Rebecca screamed for help, but he roared, "I didn't expect you to be sent by the cops!""I'm not..." Rebecca choked on water. "Sir, let's leave now. Your boat is fast. As long as we reach the open sea, no one will catch you!""Dream on!" The boat owner wanted to strangle her. "Do you not understand? These sirens are from the royal guards! Who did you bitch provoke?"Rebecca was dumbfounded. Being a foreigner, she naturally didn't understand the local affairs in the Southeast Aciatic region.The police and royal guards quickly caught up, armed, and surrounded them.Rebecca turned pale and trembled all over, her gaze gr

"You had no choice on the battlefield."Persephone looked at him with her crystal eyes. There was a magical power in them. Even if a devil was tearing him apart, her eyes would always bring him back to light.She smiled and caressed his cheek. "Though you killed your father, you saved the country.""Do you really… think so?"She nodded. "You're not at fault. He was the one who made a mistake. You were just fulfilling your job as a general to protect the country."But I also understand that he's your father who brought you up, after all. You guys must have had happy days before that happened, right?"Morpheus held his head low in silence."You did well as the protector of the country," she said softly. "But as a son, you can secretly pay homage to him."Persephone held his hand. "Reconcile with your father, Morpheus. You'll also reconcile with yourself by doing that, okay?"He was stunned for a long time and felt a lump in his throat.-Morpheus stayed with Persephone in the

"No way!" Christopher smirked, glancing at Morpheus. "To him, you're his only princess! I just got lucky for the princess carry, thanks to you!""Yeah, at least you're self-aware!" Persephone nodded, rubbing her chin."We've known each other for so long! What kind of person do you think I am?" Christopher laughed. "I can be a bit shameless at times, but..."But upon learning that the one she loved was the unbeatable god of war, he willingly stepped back, offering his blessings with a smile."Okay, okay. You two stop crowding around me!" Christopher waved his hand. "Sephy needs more rest, and I'd like to get some more sleep, too! Once we heal, let's go out and have some fun together!""You're still thinking about fun?" Morpheus' deep voice intervened with a wry smile. "With the factory explosion incident, the royal family is furious and will thoroughly investigate it. Many people will probably be coming to talk to you both in the next few days. After all, you two are the most direc

"Let's get out first!""Hey, wait..." Persephone pointed to the other side.In moments of life and death, it wasn't appropriate to laugh, but Morpheus still chuckled. The young Prince Christopher was sprawled on the floor in a very ridiculous pose, and they almost forgot about him!"Don't worry," Morpheus whispered. "I won't let anything happen to him."He had Persephone cling to his back and then carried Christopher.Christopher was a tall fellow, so it took some effort to carry them both to a safe place.Fire trucks, ambulances, and police cars rushed in. Their sirens pierced the sky, startling a flock of birds.The fire was soon extinguished, and Persephone and Christopher received timely treatment. Luckily, their burns weren't too severe, and even more fortunately, their faces were unharmed.When Christopher woke up, he felt bandages wrapped around his head, and his skin had a burning sensation. His heart sank, and he was almost on the verge of tears."Tell me the truth! A

There was fire everywhere. Flames rushed toward Persephone like menacing dragons. Her consciousness grew increasingly blurred, but the searing pain coursing through her body became clearer. She struggled to get up, the agony almost unbearable.Despite several attempts, it was futile...Something was pinning her feet down, and stones kept falling on her. She couldn't even muster a shout.Many images flashed through her mind in that fleeting moment, each frame featuring Morpheus' face…She remembered the times they had spent together in Flinge, how he had initially distanced himself from her, then later had exerted every effort to protect her. She recalled how he would gently ruffle her hair and call her "silly goose"..."Morpheus, I'm afraid I might have to go first..."The fire grew fiercer, explosions resonated continuously, and she could no longer hold on.Christopher, who was nearby, wasn't any better.Amidst the roaring flames, he couldn't see anything clearly, only pulling

"No need, you can go back first." Morpheus glanced at him. "I'll wait here for her a little longer.""Prince Christopher wouldn't do anything to Ms. Hamerton...""Alfred, what are you thinking?" Morpheus couldn't help but chuckle. "I know exactly what Christopher is like, but I just want to wait here for Sephy. Christopher mentioned that she'd specifically designed these fireworks for me. Hah! I'm the useless one. I don't even dare to go inside and take a look.""Sir, don't say that.""If I wait here, will it count as accompanying her in her efforts?"Alfred nodded.Morpheus smiled and sent Alfred back. He continued waiting under the tree.The air in Southeast Aciatic was hot and humid. The shade of the banyan tree offered some relief, but it couldn't completely dispel the oppressive heat.Morpheus took a deep breath, about to move elsewhere, when he glimpsed a suspicious figure swiftly darting through the factory's side gate.The security at the side gate was lax, making it e

Christopher struggled to swallow the bite of the sandwich in his mouth for what seemed like ages. He gazed at Persephone, his mind wandering back…He didn't just know Morpheus. He had been close since childhood to the children of the two prominent military families in Southeast Aciatic.Compared to the Harrises, he preferred visiting the Ortons, especially when he got to spend time with Morpheus. He considered Morpheus a friend, a brother even, having engaged in countless mischief together, much to their parents' dismay.In his memory, Morpheus was someone who smiled a lot, radiating warmth and brightness like the Southeast Aciatic sun when he did.However, from the moment Kaiden betrayed the country, Morpheus never smiled again, gradually growing distant from Christopher as well.It wasn't until that evening at the gates of the palace that Christopher felt like it had been a lifetime."I... I don't know him." Christopher forced a smile. "Where would I have met your boyfriend!"

Morpheus wasn't just an ordinary person!Christopher wholeheartedly accepted his defeat to Morpheus."Then... I'd like to invite you to come over to my place for a while as a friend. That's fine, right?"-A few days later, Persephone finally ran into Christopher, who had been missing in action for days, in the classroom."Hey, you finally showed up!" She dashed over, plopping down in the seat beside him and handing him breakfast. "You haven't eaten, right? Let's eat together!"Usually, Christopher would readily accept, but he waved his hands now. "No, no, no!""What's wrong?" Persephone widened her eyes. "This breakfast isn't poisoned!"Christopher awkwardly smiled. "You have a boyfriend, so maybe... we should keep some distance."Persephone burst into laughter. Then she remarked, "Strange... Morpheus was right!""Uh, what?""My boyfriend!" She chuckled. "He made this breakfast. I asked if he could also make a portion for you, and he said sure, just worried you wouldn't tak
