The lights in the main hall lit up, illuminating the surrounding darkness. However, the situation had changed.Mabel, driven by jealousy and wanting to teach Lucy a lesson, was left stunned. Lucy felt someone behind her. She turned to see the fork in Mabel's hand.Lucy's gaze turned cold, and she looked at Mabel icily.Mabel's expression changed, and she quickly grabbed a dessert at the nearby table with the fork."Whoa, what's this?"The cries of surprise around Lucy caught her attention. She turned toward the direction of the voices and noticed the server entering with a cart filled with countless roses. The fragrance of the roses instantly permeated the main hall.Then, Lucy realized her surroundings had changed. At some point, pink balloons had been hung on the wall—the place was decorated like a proposal.Lucy quirked her eyebrow. It looked like a scene in a TV show where a man would propose to a woman. Was someone proposing to the love of his life tonight?She looked arou

Lucy and Tobias' fiery, passionate kiss continued as if it would never end.Their bodies intertwined, and they felt the warmth of each other's bodies. The atmosphere in the car slowly heated up. Lucy glided her hand along Tobias' body. Suddenly, Tobias grabbed her mischievous hand. His eyes darkened, and his voice was gruff and sexy. "Not here."The car was parked in the designated lot at the venue. The event had ended, and many people would pass them by. He didn't want anyone else to sneak a peek at his wife's beauty."Hold it in until we get home, okay?"Lucy's face was flushed. "Okay."Tobias sped on the road.Howard couldn't sleep that night and was getting fresh air on the balcony. He heard Tobias' car screech as it stopped at the entrance. The car had been speeding so much that sparks flew from the friction between the wheels and the road.Howard nagged. "That rascal, Tobias. He is in his 30s, yet he acts so recklessly. Does he think he's competing in Formula One?"Then

Lucy had wanted to surprise him, but she had never thought he would frown and look so stern. She was terrified.She blinked as tears welled in her eyes. She pouted, feeling misunderstood. "Don't you like it, darling?"A tear unexpectedly fell down her face. Tobias' heart ached to see her cry. He quickly wiped her tears and said, "Why wouldn't I, babe?"He looked at the wedding rings before him. The style was trendy and unique. She had even named them Starry Devotion, which perfectly represented their love for each other.Tobias was overjoyed. "I'm worried about you. Your hands haven't fully recovered. I didn't know you would secretly do so much. I would be devastated if something happened to your hands."Lucy laughed through her tears. "I see. Darling, don't worry about my injury. I know the extent of what I can do."Tobias gently caressed her wrists. "Babe, I love the wedding rings. Thank you for going through the trouble. Let me put it on for you.""Okay."Tobias took the rin

The next day, sunlight shone through the window and cast its rays into the cozy bedroom. The first thing Tobias saw when he woke up was a delicate face. He thought back to the romantic and crazy night and still felt the lingering sweetness in his heart. His lips curled into a grin, and he planted a kiss on Lucy's face. "I love you, babe."Everyone said that Lucy was the luckiest woman in the world for being married to Tobias. However, none of them knew that he thought differently. As far as he was concerned, he was the luckiest and happiest man to be able to marry Lucy. Lucy rolled to the side and opened her eyes slowly. She saw Tobias staring at her. Then, she wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him. "Morning, darling.""Rise and shine." Tobias' eyes sparkled. "Just now, you…""Don't you have an important meeting later on, darling? Get up and get ready for it.""Oh…" It looked like Lucy hadn't heard his confession of love once again. A hint of disappointment flashed in

Billy drove Lucy to the hospital entrance. Both of them didn't know that Joey was tailing them when they went for the check-up. She even took some pictures secretly.Lucy arrived at the exam room. After she went through a series of blood tests, she gave the check-up report to Billy, who leafed through it and frowned. "Are you sure you're infertile?"Lucy nodded. "Why, yes.""That's strange, then. Everything seems normal."Could it be a misdiagnosis? Billy's eyebrows knitted tightly. "Do you know what you were given?"Lucy shook her head. "The lady who drugged me ran into an accident and died in prison. If we're going to investigate it…"All of a sudden, Rosa's image popped into Lucy's mind. Rosa was the one who'd fed her the poison that day. "I know who I can ask. Go about your day. I'm going to prison for a bit.""Alright."Lucy went to the prison and questioned Rosa face-to-face. "Back then, you took money from Anna and poisoned me with a drug that would lead to infertility

Lucy watched Tobias until he finished his lunch. Then, she rose and said, "I'll let you get back to your work, darling. I'm going home now."Tobias held her hand and said, "Don't be in such a hurry to leave. There's a private lounge behind the office. Take some rest there. We'll go home together once I'm finished with my work. Hmm?"Lucy pondered on it for a while and responded, "That works. I don't have anything to do in the afternoon, after all. I'll wait for you back there."Tobias nodded. He led Lucy through a secret door, which was hidden behind the bookshelf in the office. The private lounge wasn't that big, but it had everything anyone needed. "Wow. What a cozy place. It's almost as big as a luxurious house that comes with one bedroom and a living room.""Yeah. It's quiet here. Perfect for a nap."Tobias liked quiet. No one would disturb him if he was taking a break here.Lucy said, "Alright, then. I'm going to take a nap. Go ahead and work."She knew Tobias was a busy

"You probably looked into Hawkins Group's background, Mr. Ripley. We built our company by making investments. We have a team of professionals analyzing our investments." Fiona ignored Tobias' cold look. She said, "I've heard through the grapevine that you intended to collaborate with the investor, Joaquin Garcia, for the second round of funding. "He might be wealthy, but you're going to land your company in hot water if you only have one investor and something unforeseeable happens."Meanwhile, Cedric realized that it was almost time for the appointment and came over to take Tobias with him to meet Joaquin. To his surprise, he heard what Fiona said when he reached the door. His eyes flickered as a hint of gloom flashed in them. Cedric asked, "Excuse me, are you trying to say that Joaquin might withdraw his investment halfway through? As far as I know, Joaquin was famous for his fine reputation in the industry. "Are you doubting him this much because you don't trust his chara

Lucy was reading the document in the office. She found some big issues in it. The file had information on two investment projects in Amestria. Someone who went by the name Klaus withdrew his investment halfway through the project. His business partner's company couldn't operate normally and eventually went bankrupt.The file showed that there was a high possibility that Klaus was Joaquin himself.Lucy was shocked. She was about to tell Tobias about it when her phone rang."Hello. Oh, it's you, Finn. What's the matter?""Mr. Ripley had a car accident, Mrs. Ripley…""What?"Lucy was so stunned that she shot to her feet. "How did he get into a car accident? Where's he? How badly injured is he?""Relax, Mrs. Ripley. Mr. Ripley is receiving treatment at the hospital as we speak. He was just lightly injured. I'm sending you the location now."Lucy let out a sigh of relief when she heard that Tobias had merely suffered a minor injury. She drove to the hospital based on the location

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
