Zander didn't think that his intricate plan would be revealed in front of Tobias. With that said, it didn't change anything. Even if Tobias managed to guess everything correctly, he didn't have any hard proof to support his assumption. Zander said with a smile, "What you said are conjectures at best. Furthermore, you've got it all wrong. I lost my memory due to an accident, and I thought my name was Dayton Munoz. "I went through plastic surgery because my face was ruined during the car crash, and I needed to restore my face. It was through a twist of fate that I continued to live under the identity of Dayton Munoz. Things didn't happen the way you said it did."Tobias raised his eyebrow and stared at Zander with an inquisitive gaze. "Really?" His eyes were laced with sharp wisdom. He stared at Zander with prying eyes. Obviously, he didn't buy the latter's crap. Zander held his gaze on Tobias for no longer than three seconds before he backed down and turned his gaze away. T
Zander was taken away by the police officers. A lot of people muttered among themselves while he was on his way to the police department. Back in the CEO's office, Tobias patted Cedric on the shoulder, offering him comfort. "Zander is about to get his comeuppance, Cedric. It's time you let go of the hatred in your heart."Cedric sounded lost when he asked, "Zander said my dad has an illegitimate daughter, Tobe. Is it true?"Tobias sighed and responded, "Look into it, Cedric."Cedric bit his lips gently, and his face turned red with rage. He hesitated for a long time before he said, "I'll be in touch with you later, Tobe." Then, he turned around and headed straight to the address that Zander said.Tobias watched Cedric's retreating figure and couldn't help but shake his head. He hadn't expected this at all. Zander might've come up with his convoluted schemes because of a romantic conflict, but he was the furthest thing away from a hopeless romantic. He still poached a lot of bus
Faith said, "You have to hold his head with your palm and adjust your posture with another hand, Lucy. Let Edwin's back rest against your elbow pit. This is the most comfortable posture for him."Lucy did as she was told and slowly adjusted her posture. She was particularly careful throughout the entire process. She was so nervous that her forehead was covered in sweat. Once Lucy was done adjusting the posture, she let out a sigh of relief and said, "Well, what do you know? It turns out there's a particular technique to holding babies."Sienna responded, "Why, of course. I have the most experience among all of us when it comes to looking after babies, and the most difficult babies to take care of are those born in less than a month. "Edwin wants to feed every two hours during the night. I fed him in a sleepy state every day. Once he finally grows up, he'll learn to walk and cause all kinds of mischief. Things are only going to get scarier once he's three years old."Lucy couldn'
Sienna quickly came out with a stack of design sketches and laid them out in front of Lucy. She said, "Check out my sketches, Lucy. I think they're good, but I can't shake the feeling that something was missing. For the life of me, I can't quite grasp what it is."Lucy took the sketches and studied them one by one. She might've only spent a minute on each of them, but she quickly identified their flaws and strengths. Lucy went through all of them and found that there weren't any signs of her design style. It dispelled the suspicion in her heart. Her pregnancy must've fried her brain. How could she doubt her own best friend for plagiarizing her work?Lucy couldn't help but feel ashamed. She said, "You did very well, Sienna. You can use bolder lines for this particular diamond ring. Here, try amending it this way." Lucy gave her suggestions and pointed out flaws in each of the sketches. Sienna understood everything she said immediately, and she made amendments to her sketches i
It just so happened that they had to wait for a traffic light. Tobias brought the car to a halt before he looked at Lucy solemnly and eagerly."Back when I was a little girl?" Lucy searched her memories diligently, but she didn't remember anything related to it. So, she said, "I don't think so."Tobias had a hunch that Lucy was the same "Lulu" from back then. However, he had asked her in person, and she said she didn't do anything like that. At that moment, Tobias couldn't decide if he was experiencing disappointment, loss, or something else. Faith, who sat in the backseat, chimed in, "You have to be more specific about the time and day, Tobias. Lucy doesn't have any memory from before she was sent to the orphanage. If what you are referring to happened before that, she surely wouldn't remember it."Tobias' heart pounded again. "Did you lose your memory when you were a little girl?"Lucy nodded. "Yeah. Faith's right. I forgot everything that happened before I was six years old.
Tobias and Lucy kept Howard and Agatha company in the living room. They chatted for a while, and Agatha felt tired. Then, Howard wheeled her back to her room to rest. After that, Tobias and Lucy also called it a night and retreated to their rooms. The moment both of them stepped foot into the master bedroom, he became clingy. He held her from behind and wouldn't let go. Lucy said coquettishly, "What's the matter, darling? It's very hot today. Why are you clinging to me?"Tobias responded, "I'm touching my babies."Lucy asked, "Can you do it from another position?"Tobias said in a domineering tone, "No." Then, he pulled Lucy into his arms and placed his palm on her belly. He was very affectionate and thoughtful, looking like a loving father.Tobias held Lucy in his arms and bent down before pressing his ear on her belly. He listened to his twins' heartbeats and felt a kick from inside the belly. Tobias said, "You're being mean to your mom again, brat."Lucy looked at Tobia
Tobias said, "Okay, I will meet Banshee and have her explain things clearly in public."He ended the call. The expression on his face turned serious.Lucy's eyes flickered. She acted oblivious and asked, "What's the matter, darling?"Tobias said with regret, "Babe, I need to settle an urgent matter. I can't spend time with you anymore."When Tobias mentioned Banshee, Lucy knew what was happening but pretended to be oblivious to it. Lucy said, "Go and attend to it. I'll head back once I'm done.""No. Maya is still out there. I'm concerned about leaving you on your own. I'll send you home and attend to my matter after that."Lucy said, "It's okay. I'll call a cab."Tobias insisted. "Let's go. I'll send you home."Lucy pushed Tobias toward the exit and said, "Darling, it's crowded in the shopping mall. Nothing will happen to me. If you're still worried, get a bodyguard to follow me. I'll head home soon before you know it. Go and attend to your matter."Tobias was still concerne
Miles said, "Calm down, Tobias. Lucy might be in the lift. Perhaps there is no signal on her phone, so you couldn't contact her."Tobias contemplated and said, "Yeah, I hope so."However, he was unsure why his heart was pounding.Tobias thought maybe he was too worked up after finding out Lucy was Banshee.Miles said, "Tobias, I never thought Lucy was trained medically. You've married a good one."Tobias crossed his arms to steady his trembling hands. He said, "Yes. I'm so lucky to have married her."Tobias felt unsettled. He wished he could find Lucy and get to the bottom of it. He got up and said, "Miles, Faith, I need to find Lucy. I'll see you soon." "Okay."Tobias left and drove back to Ripley Residence. He went so fast that his car was practically levitating.Tobias called Lucy several times on his way back, but no one answered. He was getting more anxious as time passed.When he returned home, Howard and Agatha were in the living room.Overcome with emotion, Tobias a
