It just so happened that the female concierge was browsing her phone at the hotel front counter. She was reading the news about Tobias and Lucy, too. At that moment, someone knocked on the counter. She raised her head in confusion. The moment she saw Tobias, she thought she was seeing things!"M-Mr. Ripley…" The receptionist stuttered. Tobias' face turned red with rage, while his eyes were laced with coldness. His voice was chilly when he spoke. "Which room are they in?"She was puzzled by Tobias' question for a second before realizing that he must've meant Lucy and Billy. She was so frightened that she was trembling all over. "T-They're in room 5188."Tobias exuded a cold air as he spoke with absolute authority, "The key card."According to the hotel's regulations, she couldn't give the key card to anyone other than the people who checked into the room. However, this was Tobias. He was the big shot in the entire Azureville. And he was asking for the key now. The receptio

Billy continued to administer acupuncture for Lucy, despite the commotion caused by the other people. He looked very charming when he was focused on giving treatment.Tobias coughed awkwardly.He composed himself and said, "You chose to have acupuncture here, of all places. Anyone would've misunderstood you."Lucy pursed her lips and looked at Tobias pitifully. "I don't want to go through with the surgery, darling. Billy is an excellent doctor. He can develop a new oral medication for my condition."Did Lucy just call him Billy? Heh. It sounded as if they were quite close.Tobias was green with envy, and it showed in his tone when he spoke. "Ripley Group owns multiple hospitals with countless medical specialists. You're free to choose if you want traditional or modern practitioners."Why would you let this man administer acupuncture for you? You're going to get your hands ruined. Let's go, babe. We should go to a professional at a hospital."Billy stopped in his tracks and looke

Lucy glared at him. She would've kicked Billy if her feet weren't covered in silver needles. After all, Billy did have the capabilities to remove someone's tongue in under a minute. She wouldn't just let him harm Tobias!Tobias hesitated for a moment and said, "You say he's Nightshadow. Do you have proof for that?"He was a prestigious figure. Anyone who laid eyes on him would've been struck with fear. However, Billy looked rather cocky. Not only was he not afraid of Tobias, but he'd even threatened him.What if Billy truly was Nightshadow?Billy was about to say something when Lucy grimaced. "What's wrong?"Tobias saw the anguish on her face and asked in a worried tone, "Are you feeling okay?""It hurts so much, darling."Billy saw it and came over to check on Lucy, too. He had just gotten close to her when Tobias grabbed him by the collar and lifted him off the floor. Tobias snarled coldly, "How could Nightshadow be this young? You'd better hope that nothing happens to Lucy.

"Why are you coughing, babe? Did you catch a cold?""That's not it. My throat feels dry. I want some water.""I'll get some for you, then."Tobias took away the glass cup in Lucy's hand and turned around to get her some warm water. Billy raised his eyebrow. "Why did you cut me off and send Tobias away?"After Tobias went away, Lucy responded, "He doesn't know that I have medical knowledge. Don't spill the beans."Billy chuckled quietly and said, "Oh, my dear Lucy. You want me to keep your secret, but what's in it for me?"Lucy glared at him and said, "The old man gave me some Zenith Elixir two years ago. I'll give you two vials."Zenith Elixir?Billy had pleaded with his mentor to give him the elixir for many years. However, the latter had played favorites and given it to Lucy instead. Billy had been wracked with jealousy back then. Now, Billy was walking on cloud nine at the thought of owning the only two vials of the Zenith Elixir soon."Okay. I'm going to keep your secret

Lucy didn't understand why Tobias would do something so outrageous. She instinctively wanted to get out of the car to pick up the wedding band.She had just opened the car door a little before Tobias reached out and locked the doors. In a matter of a second, he pinned her on the seat. There was nothing flirtatious about their position at all. Instead, the air was charged with tension. Tobias' face was grim, and the air turned cold immediately. A ball of fury burned within his chest and was threatening to explode. Lucy was stunned by the ferocious look on his face. "What's the meaning of this?"She wasn't blind. She could tell that Tobias was very pissed off now, but she couldn't figure out the reason behind it. Tobias clenched his fists so hard they made cracking sounds. He saw the other shopping bag out of the corner of his eye. Then, he reached out and fetched it here. Lucy was perplexed. Tobias took out two ring boxes from the shopping bag. He opened it and revealed a new

Tobias and Lucy made love in the car, which was parked in the suburbs, for a long time. Just thinking about it would be enough to make anyone blush.Tobias and Lucy still hadn't adjusted to the jet lag. They were extremely exhausted. So, they dozed off in the car. It was already evening by the time they woke up. Both of them were starving, too."Darling…" Lucy said with a lilting voice and stared at Tobias. He opened his eyes and stared at her profoundly."I'm hungry. We should go home and have dinner.""Yeah," Tobias responded softly. Both of their outfits were so messy that they couldn't wear it anymore. So, he gave Finn a call. "Bring me and Lucy some clothes. I'll send you the location on WhatsApp."Tobias was about to hang up when Finn added. "There's just one more thing, Mr. Ripley. I let Chad slip away from me when I was taking him to the police department…"Finn trailed off into silence toward the end of his sentence. His voice was extremely low, too.Lucy was sittin

"Tobias, I'm explaining myself, but you just won't listen. It doesn't matter what I say—you'll just think that I'm wrong, and you're right. I can't reason with you!"I don't want to talk to you right now. You can calm down by yourself!"Both of them were infuriated after the fight. Lucy had never thought that there would come a day when Tobias would mindlessly accuse her. Tobias noticed that Lucy was getting out of the car. He instinctively grabbed her hand, but he was worried that he was too rough and might've hurt her. So, he withdrew his hand again. "Where are you going?"Lucy said angrily, "Mind your own business!"She felt so sorry for herself. She had sacrificed so much for Tobias, but he was actually doubting her love for him. He must have a screw loose!The more Lucy thought about it, the more sorry she felt for herself. Tears welled up in her eyes as she turned on her phone's flashlight and searched for the pair of wedding bands in the bushes. "I told you. Forget ab

Joey had seen through Tobias and Lucy, but neither of them denied it. Instead, they put on a stern expression and turned their heads sideways, not intending to see each other. Zayne said, "Married couples patched things up right away after they had a fight, son. Don't let a trivial matter hurt your relationship."Tobias sneered and asked, "Are you trying to give me advice? Perhaps you should take a look at yourself before you do that."Tobias was so ruthless that the smile on Zayne's face froze. "Tobias Ripley!"Zayne was so enraged that his face was reddened. Tobias gave him a cold sidelong glance and said out of nowhere, "Did I say something wrong?"The air in the room became so tense that one could cut it with a knife. It felt as if Tobias and Zayne were about to get into a physical fight. Lucy grabbed Tobias' arm tightly and said, "Be nice, darling."Tobias raised his eyebrow. They had just had a fight in which they addressed each other by their full names. The moment he h
