Third Person's POV
"Take me to the hospital. I'm in pain." Sunny was at her breaking point, feeling like she was about to pass out from the agony.
Without a word, Leo scooped her up into his arms and hurried towards the door.
"Close the door. I still have a lot of stuff inside." Sunny gritted her teeth and said.
Leo, however, ignored her. "What's more important than your life?"
Sunny could only watch helplessly as her front door remained wide open and the elevator doors swiftly closed.
Leo held her tighter, noticing the cold sweat streaming down her forehead like a small river. It was then that he realized the extent of her suffering.
"Who did this? Who stabbed you?" Leo finally had a moment to ask her in a calm but forceful tone.
Sunny shook her head. "I don't know. I don't recognize those people."
Hearing her words, Leo's face turned ashen, nearly driving him to the brink of madness. She had been attacked by strangers.
Third Person's POVA hint of embarrassment flickered across Sunny's face. Although she had courage and fighting skills, these didn't seem like things worth boasting about in front of the man she liked.What if Leo didn't like such a strong woman? Would he be put off by her?"Rest assured, I only fight bad guys. I would never raise a fist to you," Sunny said with a forced laugh.Leo, however, chuckled softly. "If one day I really become too much of a jerk, you'd have every right to teach me a lesson. I wouldn't have a word to say."Sunny just shook her head and remained silent. Of course, she could never bring herself to hit the man she liked."From this video, we can see the faces of those men. Don't worry, I will definitely catch these two jerks and get revenge for you," Leo said in a low voice, his tone firm."I just want to know why they were after me. Did I really offend someone at some point?" Sunny felt a vague sense of unease.
Third Person's POV"Mirabel, I have to ask, these two men, you didn't hire them, did you?" the assistant asked nervously.Mirabel's face froze for a second, and she turned her head to glare at the assistant fiercely. "Don't talk nonsense. This has nothing to do with me!"The assistant shrank back, quickly forcing a smile. "Good, I'm glad it's not related. Mirabel, I wonder who Sunny offended this time. It seems like there are quite a few people who want to get back at her."Mirabel narrowed her eyes, clenching her fists in anger. She thought to herself that since Sunny had escaped this time, she wouldn't be so lucky next time.In fact, these two thugs were indeed hired by Mirabel.She had originally planned to grab Sunny, humiliate her thoroughly, and make her feel unclean, so she would be too ashamed to pursue Leo anymore.But now, things had gone beyond her expectations.Sunny had good fighting skills and had fought against t
Third Person's POVBlake, too, wished they could keep kissing forever. But he was also worried that he might make it hard for her to breathe.Catherine's pretty face flushed with pink. Blake reluctantly let her go."I'm going to take a shower. Wait for me!" Blake had a knack for easily unsettling her. Just that one word, "wait for me," seemed to encompass all the sweet nothings.Catherine's heart fluttered slightly as she watched his figure disappear into the bathroom. She suddenly felt the bedroom was empty and didn't know what to do next.At that moment, her phone rang, signaling a new message.Catherine walked over and saw that the message was from Harley. She was taken aback for a moment but still picked up her phone to check it."Catherine, congratulations!" The message was simple, yet it was filled with his affection for her.Catherine understood the weight behind those few words and sighed softly.She remembered H
Third Person's POVThe morning sun shone brightly. After a month of continuous winter snow, the city finally welcomed such a sunny day.On this day, the entire city was buzzing with excitement over the Royal Pack's joyous occasion—Blake and Catherine's long-awaited engagement was finally coming to fruition.The news had the city abuzz with anticipation, as everyone eagerly awaited photos or videos from the engagement party, curious to see just how luxurious and dazzling a high-society event could be.In reality, Blake had prepared for the engagement party somewhat hastily. In his eyes, many aspects were far from perfect, but he had done his utmost to make everything as good as it could be.Emerson was particularly delighted and felt a deep sense of relief, knowing that he would witness his grandson's engagement in his lifetime, leaving him with no regrets.Abigail attended Catherine's engagement party, but Halsey was unable to make it
Third Person's POVRichard said mysteriously, "Just wait and see. Someone will expose it.""Isn't it supposed to be made public?" Nick asked curiously."If it were made public, Emerson might just be so angry that he'd die," Richard glanced in the direction of Emerson.Nick nodded in agreement. "His condition does seem really serious. Dad, are you starting to care about Emerson?""I just don't want him to collapse so soon," a complex expression flickered across Richard's face.Nick let out a cold laugh. "I thought your hatred for him had already faded.""He gave me life, but at the same time, he subjected me to countless blows and torments. I don't even know whether to hate him or respect him," Richard snorted coldly.At that moment, the sound of flattery from the crowd outside the main door could be heard. Nick looked over and saw Blake and Catherine walking in, receiving everyone's congratulations.Since it was an engag
Third Person's POVThe grand ballroom was packed by eleven o'clock with guests of honor and celebrities, creating a dazzling scene.Blake held Catherine's hand, with two small figures trailing behind.The guests marveled at the genetic luck of this family of four.Noah had clearly inherited Blake's best features. At a young age, he had deep-set, serious eyes and exuded an innate air of nobility.He remained calm and collected in the face of the grand occasion, his delicate and handsome appearance drawing admiring glances.Hedwig, on the other hand, took after Catherine. Her round, chubby face was framed by crystal-like big eyes, and her well-defined little mouth, whether pouted or pressed, looked sweet and cute.It was evident that she would grow up to be a remarkable beauty.Emerson's ruddy complexion during his speech betrayed his joy and satisfaction.Leo and Abigail chose a different table to avoid Richard.Abigail engaged Leo in a conversation about the day's event."Why isn't Su
Third Person's POVBrother and sister getting engaged?This is a shocking scandal!From a public ethics standpoint, it clearly crosses the moral line.If it were an ordinary family, it might not draw much attention.But Blake was different. Chavez Group was an international corporation, under the spotlight.The atmosphere grew tense as all eyes, filled with shock and doubt, turned to Blake and Catherine, who had just stepped down from the stage.The sudden explosive news seemed too coincidental, as if someone intentionally wanted to shatter their happiness and cause trouble for the Royal Pack.Abigail obviously heard the whispers around her. Her face turned deathly pale, and her body trembled with fear and anxiety.Leo, sitting beside her, had a face black as iron, his gaze cold as frost.Blake's hand tightened around his wine glass, veins standing out on his knuckles.His glare swept toward Richard, sendin
Third Person's POVLeo's fingers whitened around the crystal glass as Nick probed, "Seems like you brothers do have similar tastes?"The Leo's face darkened.In his younger days, he would have thrown a punch, but now he mastered his emotions, recognizing it as Nick's provocation.A scuffle now would only turn the engagement party into a social farce."Our common ground is disliking certain people," Leo coldly replied before leaving.Nick, frustrated by his failed attempt, chose to leave early, unable to bear watching Blake and Catherine's affectionate moments.At 3 p.m., guests began to leave. Despite the earlier uproar, the celebration remained joyful.Catherine left with the two children.In the car's backseat, Hedwig slept on Catherine's arm, while Noah, wide awake, pondered the family secret revealed at the banquet—his grandmother and grandfather were once legal partners. Though too young to fully grasp
"You could still meet with my father if you both have time. Blake and I wouldn't mind," Catherine suggested softly."There's nothing left to say between us," Abigail replied with a light laugh, her tone final yet tinged with resignation."Thank you, Abigail." Catherine's gratitude spilled out."Alright, no more formalities. I'm content now. Rest now—you'll need energy for tomorrow's flight," Abigail said with a gentle smile.Catherine nodded and quietly left. Back in the bedroom, Blake was sitting on the sofa with a strange look. On seeing her, he got up and walked over. "What did my mom say?""Nothing much. Just reminded me about Dad's medication," Catherine replied softly."Is he ill?" Blake's gaze sharpened."Old health issues," Catherine deflected, unnerved by his sudden intensity.Blake said no more and put his arms around her. "Let's rest early. The flight will drain you.""Okay. Good night." Catherine leaned
"I understand, but if I don't visit him during such an important festival, I'll feel guilty. On my engagement day, my dad gave me so many gifts—he gave me almost everything he had. He's truly a great father, and I want to be a good daughter in return."Catherine was in a dilemma.Blake knew Catherine had fully forgiven and accepted Halsey for abandoning her."Fine, I'll go with you to visit him." Blake made his decision."You'll accompany me?" Catherine was surprised since Blake had a grudge against her father."Yes. I don't want you to go alone, but as his daughter, you must visit him." Blake didn't want his past issues to affect her. She had the right to love her father."What about the kids?" Catherine asked suddenly."Leave them here. Let my mom and grandma take care of them." Blake didn't want to put the children in danger.Catherine agreed that leaving the kids behind would be safer.Given Blake's ongoing str
Three days passed in a warm haze for the Royal family—a rare stretch of uninterrupted togetherness amidst their perpetually busy lives.The family rarely gathered, as they were usually busy with work and chores. So, the time they spent together was precious.Blake and Catherine skipped elaborate vacations, opting instead to fill the estate with laughter.They built snow forts with the children, baked gingerbread cookies in the sunlit kitchen, and read bedtime stories by the crackling fireplace. For Noah and Hedwig, these simple moments became their first true childhood memories.On the third evening, as snowflakes settled like powdered sugar over the grounds, Catherine needed to discuss visiting her father abroad with Blake, but the words stuck in her throat like winter sap.Blake definitely didn't want her to go far away, but she couldn't be trapped here forever just because she was afraid of the dangers outside.That night, the snow
"It's different this time. They're interested in getting to know you. Your reputation has grown since those days; you're a celebrity now, Sunny. I'm not trying to hurt you. Won't you come back and see for yourself?"Moira was truly unaware of her husband's schemes. She simply wished for Sunny to emerge from her heartbreak, embrace life anew, rather than languish at home, like a soul hiding from the light."Mom, stop worrying about me. I'm fine now," Sunny offered a few comforting words, then abruptly said, "I'm not going back. Gotta go, bye!"And with that, Sunny ended the call.But her harsh refusal angered her stepfather.Patricia had invited Richard and Nick over for dinner, but they declined.In truth, Richard and Nick were in foul moods.Leo and Catherine's successful engagement felt like a bad omen to them, dampening their fighting spirit.As for Nick, since returning from the engagement party, he'd been like a lost soul,
"Grandma's right, Sunny and Leo are perfect for each other," Catherine agreed quickly.Sunny's face turned bright red. Why was everyone focusing on her?Abigail noticed Sunny's other hand hanging still and asked quietly, "Sunny, what's wrong with your hand?"Remembering the video of Sunny fighting the thugs, Catherine explained, "Her hand is injured. Sunny, are you feeling better now?"Sunny nodded. "Much better!"Patricia was shocked. "How did your hand get hurt? Was it that naughty Leo?"Sunny shook her head and explained what had happened.Patricia and Abigail listened with concern. Catherine pulled up the video, and after watching it, both Patricia and Abigail's faces showed worry."Sunny, I didn't think you had so much courage!""Did you practice martial arts when you were young?"Sunny answered all their questions. The two elders looked at her with new respect.They couldn't believe such a small and t
Hedwig's little face was covered with Noah's fingerprints, pink and white, and she looked cute. Her head was full of flour, and when she shook it, a cloud of dust came out.Patricia and Catherine were amused by the two kids. Patricia laughed so hard that she thought her grandson was naughty and her granddaughter was pitiful."Mommy, look at what I made! It's a little ball!" Hedwig couldn't make pies, so she just kneaded the pie crust into a round ball and proudly showed it to Catherine.Catherine didn't want to hurt her daughter's confidence and praised her immediately, "Hedwig, you're really hands-on! This circle is so round!"Hedwig, upon hearing the praise, decided to make another round shape.Catherine quickly moved the pie crust away and said with a smile, "Hedwig, this is for making pies. Why don't you go play with your daddy?""Oh!" Hedwig pouted, a little unhappy. Her mommy was so mean."Grandma's here!" After running out, Hed
"Aren't you supposed to have dinner at home? I need to go back too."Sunny recalled Patricia's call to Leo last night, where he promised to return early.She felt a tinge of sadness. Although she and Leo were back together, she still felt insecure. Celebrating Christmas's Eve would mean another separation."Are you going home?" Leo narrowed his eyes, staring at her dangerously. "What if your stepfather introduces another suitor to you? How will you refuse him?"Sunny was surprised. "How do you know about that?""Wasn't it? I know he's introduced five suitors to you. I didn't get that wrong, did I?" Leo sneered, his face turning cold."He treats you like goods to sell. Are you still going back to his place?" Leo's face darkened, as if ready to punch someone.This was Sunny's dark secret, something she had always feared and been hurt by.If Leo hadn't investigated her, she would have kept these secrets until old age, not letting
Third Person's POV"By the way, did you report this to the police? Any updates? Who would want to target you?" Jessica asked curiously."The police have identified the attackers, but they're still at large," Leo replied grimly, his expression darkening."They'll catch them eventually. Don't worry, Sunny—bad guys always get what's coming," Jessica reassured."I hope so. I just want to know who's behind this," Sunny said, frustration flashing across her face.Jessica hesitated, then turned to Leo. "Boss... do you think there's a mole in the company?"Leo's eyes turned icy. "You mean Samuel?""You suspect him too?" Jessica raised an eyebrow."His recent behavior makes it hard not to," Leo sneered.Jessica frowned. "I think he's been leaking company secrets to that new rival firm. Someone approached me recently—they knew details only insiders should—my project fees, endorsement rates... They even tried to o
Third Person's POV"Free tonight? Cedrick and I would like to invite you for dinner," Jessica asked with sincerity."Sure, see you tonight. Just message me the location." Leo agreed and hung up.Jessica raised an eyebrow and smiled, "He accepted. Actually, our company has been turbulent lately with quite a few issues.""What kind of issues?" Cedrick frowned with concern."A media company has risen rapidly, taking a lot of market and resources. This has never happened before; our company has always been dominant," Jessica shrugged helplessly, "And that company is aggressive, posing a significant threat to us. They integrated over ten companies in a short time, expanding their scale dramatically.""Is that so? Who dares to openly challenge the Royal wolf pack?" Cedrick was surprised because Leo's entertainment company had always run smoothly, with no one daring to trip him up."I'm not sure, but I think the opponent is well-prepared," J
