They arrived at Larkhaven after a day's drive. Then, they spent another half of the day hiking before they arrived at Benedict's house. He was Lucy's mentor.Misty clouds shrouded the mountains. A house sat among the trees like a land one could only see in fairytales. A light floral fragrance permeated the air, bringing a sense of joy to everyone."Mr. Jones!" Lucy shouted. Benedict, who was watering his flowers in his garden, heard her voice and realized Lucy was standing at the entrance of his home with three other people."Lucy!" Benedict greeted her with joy. "I see you've brought your parents."Lucy had previously called Benedict to inform him about her parents' visit, so Benedict was not surprised to see two elderly folks beside Lucy.Lucy nodded. "Yes."Lucy introduced, "Mom, Dad, Rhett. This is my mentor, Benedict Jones.""Mr. Jones. " Lucy continued her introduction. "This is my mom, dad, and brother."She introduced each of them. Benedict sized each of them up as Lucy

Lucy and Benedict arrived at the vegetable garden. It was autumn, and a variety of vegetables were planted in the garden. The two of them picked vegetables while engaging in conversation.Lucy said, "Pops, why did you treat my family so poorly? They are going to misunderstand you. Can you be more easygoing with them?"Benedict retorted, "Do I need to be easygoing?"Lucy was rendered speechless. She rolled her eyes. "Yes, you are stubborn and feel no need to care for how other people feel. However, they are my family. I am your mentee, so my family is your family. Can't you be more kind to them?"Benedict snorted and did not respond to her. He ordered in a demanding tone, "Pick the vegetables. I have something to handle."Lucy shrugged. "Okay."Benedict lived alone in the mountains. He grew his own vegetables for food, planted many herbs, and raised animals at the back of the mountain. As Lucy was picking the vegetables, Benedict went to the back of the mountain and returned aft

Rhett stopped what he was doing. He plunged the wooden house into complete chaos. Benedict was used to living alone and liked his peace and quiet. His head was about to explode from the ruckus Rhett was causing.So, Benedict shouted for Rhett to stop the chaos.Rhett looked utterly aggrieved. Benedict remembered what Lucy said and took the butcher's knife from Rhett. He caught the chicken and duck with ease and slit their throats to let the blood out in front of Rhett.When Rhett saw it, he quickly ran to Lucy's side and helped her with the vegetables. "Lucy, your mentor is terrifying!"Lucy warned Benedict sternly, "Mr. Jones, stop scaring my brother!"Benedict snorted and went to handle the poultry. Peace was restored to the wooden house.A steaming, hearty dinner was laid on the table two hours later.Rhett brought Lisa and Marcus to the table. Their mouths drooled as they stared at the food on the table.Rhett said, "Lucy, you've always been a fantastic cook. But why does t

Tobias was impeccably dressed in a sleek, smart suit the next day. It complemented his temperament, pristine and cold. When he entered the lobby, a voice sounded. "Wait, sir."Hannah was in a wheelchair with a leg cast. She pushed the wheelchair's button to operate it automatically and moved in front of Tobias.Tobias looked at her, and in a split second, it seemed like he saw Lucy.His mind wandered as he recalled Lucy sitting in the wheelchair for months when she was injured. Hannah looked similar to Lucy. He quickly recollected himself.Tobias appeared indifferent. "What's the matter?"Hannah said, "My boyfriend is here, and he wants to talk to you. He is also in the lobby, so you can talk there."Tobias looked at the time on his watch. "Please speak to my lawyer about the compensation."Then, he turned to leave. He started walking when Hannah shouted, "Hey, sir! Please don't go."Hannah was loud, and it attracted the attention of many people around them. A man walked past

Tobias looked at the time and said, "I have a meeting to go to. I'll find a helper so she can care for you while you rest in the hotel. If there is anything urgent, you can contact me."Hannah nodded and said, "Okay."Tobias settled some matters and brought Hannah back to her room. Then, he went for his meeting at the company. Hannah watched Tobias working from the balcony. A sinister smile appeared on her lips.…Lucy was in the countryside. Life was very relaxing without the internet, but it was slightly dull. She had nothing to do, so she strolled along the trail. She arrived at a pond and saw Benedict and Rhett fishing.They were fishing and talking. Neither of them were willing to part.Rhett grinned and said, "Mr. Jones, you're unwilling to admit defeat after losing to me at chess. Now, you want to beat me in fishing. Don't you try to run away when I get more fish than you!"Benedict was slightly angered. "Nonsense. Who said I lost in chess? Quick, focus on fishing! If you

It had been a long time since the couple talked on the phone. They felt warm inside when they expressed their longing for each other.Tobias complained, "Babe, I'm about to go crazy from missing you!"Lucy said, "I miss you too, darling. My family and I are in the countryside without a signal. I came to town to do some shopping and finally had reception on my phone. So, I quickly called you."Lucy pouted and snorted. "I called you a dozen times and waited more than two hours for you. Hmph!"Tobias said coyly, "I was at a meeting. I'll set a designated ringtone for you next time. As long as you call, I'll drop everything I'm doing and answer your call."Lucy nodded. "That sounds more like it."Tobias suggested, "Let's hop onto a video call?"Lucy responded, "Okay."They ended the call. Soon, Tobias gave her a video call. Lucy immediately answered.Lucy was at the roadside. She sat on the tricycle and wore a straw hat. The sun was blaring, and her face blushed from the heat.To

Lucy's expression grew grim. "Rhett!"She sounded a little solemn. After all, her inability to get pregnant was a thorn in her heart. It made her feel uncomfortable.Rhett looked at her apologetically. "I'm sorry, Lucy. I didn't mean to make you feel sad."Lucy sighed, and her eyes were empty. "It's fine, Rhett."Things got a little awkward after that. Benedict came out of nowhere and said, "He's right. You do look like a pregnant lady."Lucy said helplessly, "You know about my condition, Mr. Jones. There's no way I could get pregnant!"Benedict asked, "How long has it been since you had your last period?"Lucy pondered on it for a brief moment and said, "I didn't pay attention to it. It could've been a month or two…"Lucy thought she didn't have periods due to hormonal imbalance. After all, many things happened recently. So, she didn't really pay any attention to it. "Get over here. I'm going to check your pulse."Lucy extended her hand for him to check her pulse. Rhett l

Tobias had worked for two days and nights straight. It just so happened that he had got all his jobs done when Lucy came home. She put down all of her suitcases and got washed up. Then, she eagerly gave Tobias a call. What Lucy didn't know was that Tobias had just boarded the airplane, and his cell phone had no signal. So, the call didn't get through. She listened to the mechanical recorded voice and couldn't help but feel disappointed. Lucy lay on her bed and murmured, "I'm home, Tobias. Why aren't you picking up your phone? Are you busy with work again?"Lucy felt heartbroken that Tobias had such a difficult time at work, and felt regretful as well. She held the pregnancy test result in her hand and tossed and turned in bed. Not long after, she felt exhausted and yawned before falling asleep.Lucy slept for more than two hours. Tobias finally made it back home from his travels. Walter stepped forward and welcomed him. "You're back at last, Mr. Ripley."Tobias asked, "Did somet
