It was dawn now. Anna was a fool and thought that Tobias was going to set her free. She had never dreamed that she was merely being taken to another torture chamber.

She was taken to another cold and creepy cell.

She sensed that something was wrong and started squirming frantically. "What is this place? Let me out!"

"Rosa has already given me the recipe for the decoction that makes people infertile. You used it on Lucy, so I'm going to make sure you suffer a much worse fate than she has!"

Anna's face turned pale. "No. What are you doing?

"He's going to kill me. Please save me!"

However, her limbs were cuffed up. Two police officers pinned her down the moment she struggled.

"It's illegal to kill someone. Why would I do something that idiotic?" Tobias sneered.

He waved, and one of the police officers gave him a big iron pot. It contained a freshly made decoction, which gave off a strong herbal smell.

Tobias relayed an order coldly. "Feed her the decoction. Make sure she drinks

She had fainted after being pushed down the stairs ten times. What do we do now?"Tobias glanced at his watch and said, "I heard there is a cell in prison that holds predators. You know what to do.""But… she will die.""Acquaint yourself with them and tell them she is at their disposal. However, whoever kills her will be responsible for her death.""Okay."Tobias turned to leave, letting the bodyguard handle the rest.The bodyguard looked at Anna, who was covered in bruises.

    Joey felt like her heart was about to jump out of her chest. She felt guilty and was unable to utter a sound. Her body trembled, but the white coat was loose enough to hide it.Joey intentionally lowered her voice and stuttered, "I-I…"The doctor glanced at the name on the gown white coat. "Oh, you're new. Are you lost?"Joey played along. "Yes…""This is the examination room. No one other than authorized personnel is allowed here. You should leave."Joey thought she had managed to escape. "Okay."She ran, hid in a corner, and threw her clothes into the trash can beside her. Then, she threw Lucy's blood and hair into the toilet and flushed them away.After she finished doing everything, Joey was in a state of shock. It took her a long time to calm down.Joey's eyes twitched as she recalled her impulsive behavior. She clasped her hands and prayed. "Lucy, it's your fault for being barren.

It didn't matter how influential Lucy's family was—she was barren. Joey had no choice but to take matters into her own hands.…Tobias returned to the ward. Soon, the doctor completed the discharge procedures. Since Tobias and Lucy hadn't brought much, they quickly packed up and returned to Ripley Residence.Tobias was exceptionally gentle throughout the process, thoughtfully caring for Lucy, who was struggling with moving around.Soon, their car arrived at Ripley Residence.Walter came out to greet them. "Welcome back, Mr. and Mrs. Ripley."Tobias got out of the car. He carried Lucy and placed her in a wheelchair. "Hello, Walter. Where is my mother?""Mr. Ripley, Madam Joey told us she went to visit Mrs. Ripley. Didn't she return with you?"Tobias frowned slightly. "It doesn't matter if she hasn't returned.

    Who still passed notes in this day and age? Lucy was surprised. "Can you help me open it, please?" After all, she couldn't move her fingers at all."Sure, Mrs. Ripley." The maid opened the note, and Lucy recognized the handwriting.It said, "Meet me, Lucy. Or else the Ripleys will suffer!"The notes didn't include a name, but Lucy could tell who it was from the handwriting. Her gaze turned cold at the thought of that person.A strong sense of hatred lingered in Lucy's eyes. "Has the person who gave the note left?"Chad was the reason why she had lost her twins, and Anna was the reason why she was now unable to have more children. The feeling of losing her babies and the pain of never becoming a mother were unfathomable. The hatred in Lucy's heart was as vast and deep as the ocean.She would tear Chad to shreds if he was still outside.The maid was afraid to look at the note's contents. She said truthfully, "A boy delivered it, Mrs. Ripley. I asked him not to leave, so he's wai

    Lucy finally understood why no one was outside; they had been assigned other tasks.Lucy could tell Joey was doing it on purpose but couldn't understand why Joey was targeting her. Although Joey had appeared warm when she had visited the hospital this morning, she was completely different when Tobias wasn't around.Lucy didn't give it much thought and said, "Mom, you don't need to summon all the maids to cook. You should leave someone with me. I have trouble moving around right now."Joey gave her a side-eye and scoffed, thinking, "For a barren woman, you are so troublesome."Joey played along and said, "Okay, I'll get someone to come and help you. You can rest while I show Maya around."Lucy nodded and looked at Maya again, who had plastered on a smile."Let's go take a walk, Maya.""Okay, Joey."Maya turned and glared at Lucy with a look of disdain.After both of them left, Lucy was left alone for 30 minutes, without any signs of a maid coming over to attend to her.Lucy

    "If she has a visitor, so be it. Can't you say it politely? How dare you call her a stupid woman? Test me, and I'll tell Tobias about this."Although Lucy felt uneasy about what Joey had said, she had held it in for the sake of keeping the peace. However, Sasha couldn't take it anymore and reproached Joy."Who the hell are you? You have no right to use that tone with me in my own home!""I'm Lucy's good friend. I'm warning you, don't mistreat Lucy, or you will suffer for it!""Stop it, Sasha." Lucy gave Sasha a look. Sasha stomped her feet in anger.Joey's eyes sparkled. She asked, "Lucy, it's my fault for what happened earlier. I trust that you won't tell Tobias about it.""It's okay, Mom. I won't tell him. Who's here to see me?""Brett and Rhett Eberhard. Let's go to them.""Okay."The group went to the living room. Brett, Rhett, and Maya were there.Lucy entered and secretly perked an eyebrow.

    Tobias wanted to see Lucy the moment he stepped foot into Ripley Residence.He had been occupied the whole day and had been unsure whether Lucy had been properly cared for while she had been recuperating at home. He had been riddled with worry, completely oblivious that Lucy was the only person occupying his mind."Welcome home, darling!" Lucy's eyes brightened when she noticed his return. Her voice was as sweet as honey.Tobias walked toward her, ignoring the guests in the house. Concerned, he asked, "How was it at home, babe? Did you get enough rest? How are you adapting?"Lucy felt uneasy about Joey's treatment of her. However, she immediately oozed warmth at the sight of Tobias, so she pushed her uneasiness to the back of her mind.Lucy said, "I'm getting used to it. I will eventually."Tobias stretched his arms and wrapped Lucy in them. He asked lovingly, "Did you miss me?"Embarrassed, she glanced at her surroundings and said, "Tobias, we have company."Only then did To

    Lucy heard what Tobias said and didn't dare to look at him. She lowered her gaze, allowing tufts of hair in front of her forehead to conceal her emotions. "Why would I feel jealous? I don't love you."Tobias heard the last part of her sentence and felt as if countless insects were gnawing on his heart, making him feel itchy and painful. Both of them fell quiet, and things were a little awkward between them."The doctor's here, Prince Toddy.""Let him in."The doctor entered the bedroom and brought with him medical equipment of his own. He did a series of checkups on Lucy and said, "It's the same diagnosis as before, Prince Toddy. Her internal organs remain untouched, but she was wounded severely on the outside. "We need to apply a specialized ointment on her skin. Otherwise, she will have scars."Tobias said, "What are you waiting for, then? Get us the specialized ointment.""I've given you all of them, Prince Toddy. Use it wisely for now. The only person who possessed these sp

    It seemed like Tobias was afraid that Lucy might reject him again. He added, "You haven't gone home for an entire night, Greta. Sully and Eli are extremely worried about you. I didn't want to alarm them, so I lied and said you're staying in the castle as a guest."If you insist on going back and letting them see you in this state, the twins would be worried and scared. Wouldn't you say?"Solomon and Elio were Lucy's weak spots. Initially, she was determined to leave. However, she hesitated when she heard what he said. Lucy lowered her head and looked at herself. Her limbs were injured, and her fingers were slightly bent. She was trembling ceaselessly as well. It looked as if her joints were distorted, giving off the impression that she was a disabled person. On top of that, Lucy's skin was cracked open from all the lashes. She looked absolutely terrifying. If she showed up in front of Solomon and Elio, looking like this, she would definitely traumatize them. With that said, Luc

    Staying in the castle for the long term? Elio, who was a curious and mischievous kid, thought about the lavishing and magnificent castle, and his eyes sparkled. He responded to Tobias without any hesitation, "I do!"Meanwhile, Solomon wasn't interested in the castle that much. He wanted to spend some time with Tobias. On the other hand, he wouldn't be able to see Noah anymore if he went to the castle. So, he stuttered and said, "I don't."Elio looked at Solomon in confusion. The latter seemed to see through the former's bewilderment, and he asked, "Do you honestly think we can do whatever we want in the castle, just like the way we lived at the farm? "Moreover, we won't be able to see Noah anymore once we move there."Noah might've been a stepfather, but he took a huge place in the twins' hearts. Tobias was disappointed when he heard what Solomon said. "Do you two care about Noah very much?"Solomon responded, "Of course!" He considered his stepfather to be a good father. Tobia

    Tobias used the military authority to his advantage and swiftly subdued Killian and all the leaders of his faction. All of them were incarcerated by the royal guards, and the signals were jammed. Not even God himself could help Killian and his ilk now. All they could do was sit on their thumbs in their respective homes. Moreover, Tobias revoked Killian's dukedom and stripped the latter of his military authority over Killian's negligence in Marie's education. After all, she drugged a prince. Now, Killian was nothing but a loser.Killian flew into a rage. "Damn it. King Samson had to show me some respect, but Toddy just disrespected me. How dare he lock me up at my home and make me a laughingstock in front of the entire world?""Marie has been imprisoned in the dungeon for a long time now, Kilian. What if she can't take it?""I'll never let her die!" Killian bellowed. "Did they think I command only the factions in the castle? They have grossly underestimated me."Killian couldn't

    Tobias accompanied Lucy and looked after her carefully. News of Marie's arrest quickly made its way to Samson. Once he knew what happened, he was enraged at her actions. Before he had time to comfort Tobias, Marie's father, Killian Lemoine, rushed into the castle in a fit of rage. "King Samson. Prince Toddy actually ordered his men to arrest Marie for the sake of a civilian. Do you have no respect for me as a duke?" Killian ordered angrily, "Release Marie at once. Otherwise, I'll make you regret it."Samson slammed the table. "Are you trying to launch a mutiny, Killian?"Killian responded, "All I want is for my daughter to be safe and sound. If someone so much as touches her hair, I won't mind going up against the throne to the bitter end!""Why, you!" Samson was agitated. "You are feeling heartbroken for what happened to your daughter, but Lucy was also her parent's sweetheart. Why haven't you thought about how poorly you've educated Marie while she did those heinous acts?""I

    Lucy cried out, "Get away from me!"The royal guards acted like starving wolves. They pounced at Lucy and tore her clothes to pieces, making her look even more miserable. At the critical moment, a figure flashed past them. A thudding sound could be heard as one of the royal guards was sent flying into the air. Every time Tobias swung his fist, he sent another royal guard flying. He bellowed coldly, "How dare you lay your grubby paws on what belongs to me? Death has come for all of you!""Prince Toddy." The royal guards immediately felt that something was wrong and fell to their knees, their faces drained of color. "Take all of them away!"Lucy was downright miserable. There were filthy liquids and blood all over her body. On top of that, her hands and feet were covered in bloodied welts. Her hair was disheveled, and her face was pale. It felt as if she was one touch away from passing away.Tobias' heart seemingly stopped beating. He was so heartbroken that the veins on his fo

    Someone stole Duchess Lemoine's necklace.Tobias felt that this was something fishy, but he couldn't be bothered by it now. His head throbbed as he thought about how he had forced himself on Lucy. He said, "Dante, do you think Greta will hate me?"Dante stuttered, "Ms. Everhart was f-furious when she left and asked you n-not to look for her. Otherwise…"He stopped himself from finishing his sentence.Tobias asked, "Otherwise?"Trembling, Dante said, "Otherwise, s-she would beat you up each time she saw you."Tobias massaged his throbbing temple. "Prepare all the shoes, clothes, and accessories any woman would like. They need to be the best in the world. I'll apologize to her when dawn breaks.""Okay."Tobias stood by the bedside, heavy-hearted.Outside the window, the guards were scouring high and low. When Tobias saw what was happening, his eyes twitched for some unknown reason, as if he had an ominous feeling that something terrible had happened.After finishing breakfast a

    At 3:00 am, Lucy felt like her bones were about to shatter.That damned man! How long had he been starving himself? He had come onto her seven times, devouring her completely.Tobias was sound asleep. Lucy lost herself for a second as she stared at his handsome face. At that moment, her heart beat wildly. When she regained her senses, she was so furious that she cursed him out internally.She wanted to help out of kindness but ended up giving herself to him. Lucy didn't want anything to do with him anymore and only wanted to remember this as an unfortunate event.Lucy got up, but her legs were so weak that she collapsed on the floor with a thump. She was even more furious.She turned to look at Tobias, who was fast asleep. She conveniently took her clothes from the bed and left while supporting herself on the wall.The corridor was still empty, but Lucy noticed the guards surrounding the entrance when she arrived on the first floor. Dante was also there. He was dozing off from wa

    "Hmm… L-let go."Lucy tried to resist, but Tobias' kiss was like an ever-burning flame. She felt uncontrollably weak in her knees. It was hard for her to breathe, as if her mind was foggy from the lack of oxygen. She even kissed him back fiercely.Her kiss, in return, was like a fuse being lit, igniting the burning passion in Tobias. He aggressively ripped open her clothes, but the intricate design of her gown made it difficult to tear off. Lucy regained her senses and forcefully pushed him away.Tobias was caught off guard. With a loud knock, he collapsed on the floor. He moaned in pain as the back of his head hit the floor hard.His face flushed with an unnatural shade of red. He curled his body up in agony, and his voice sounded gruff. He had the last ounce of rationality in him. "Help me…"Lucy was blushing as well. In shock, she exclaimed, "What's the matter with you?"She walked closer to him and realized something was wrong with Tobias, assuming he had eaten something upse
