Lucy went back home. She felt restless, and she had lost her wits. Noah paced back and forth in the living room. When he saw Lucy coming back, he exclaimed, "You're back at last, Greta!"Lucy raised her gaze and noticed that Noah had something to say to her. So, she asked, "What's the matter, Noah?"Noah responded, "Take a seat. I need to tell you something."Lucy nodded. She also wanted to tell him about the fact that she saw Samson. Both of them sat on the couch, and things felt a little depressing. Noah scanned her from head to toe gingerly. Noah had secretly loved Lucy for six years. Although he had never intended to let his feelings surface, he felt as if he could no longer keep Lucy by his side after Tobias showed up in front of his eyes.Lucy asked, "What is it, Noah? Tell me."Noah said, "I saw Tobias today."Lucy's eyes widened, and her heart suddenly pounded like crazy. Her throat felt dry, too. After a brief moment, she lowered her gaze and asked in a hoarse voice, "

Noah said, "Sully and Eli must've been afraid that you'd get worried. That's why they didn't tell you about it. I've told the teacher about what happened. From here on out, we'll keep an eye on them and keep people from harming them."Lucy nodded. "Okay. I know what I have to do."Noah said, "I'm off to work now. How about we swing by the kindergarten and pick them up together?"Lucy nodded again. "Sure thing."Both of them went out side by side and arrived at the farm to work. The workers at the farm saw how Lucy and Noah were always together the whole time. So, they had long thought of them as a couple. One of the workers said, "Mr. Pattinson and Greta had been together for years. They even had a couple of rugrats. When are they going to get married?"One other worker responded, "Like you said, they had a couple of children. It's only a matter of time before they get married. With that said, don't you guys think that Sully and Eli look nothing like Mr. Pattinson?"Another wor

Charlie passed out all of a sudden, and Noah was so worried that he cried. Lucy went away to call for the doctor.After the doctor checked on Charlie, he administered some oxygen to him and instructed Noah, "Your father has late-stage lung cancer, Mr. Pattinson. Try to fulfill as many requests as you can. After all, he only has six months left."Noah heard what the doctor said and slumped onto the chair, feeling dejected. Lucy said, "Thanks, doc."The doctor left. Lucy saw the pain in Noah's expression and comforted him, "Don't be sad, Noah."Noah looked at the unconscious Charlie and covered his face, feeling agitated. He said with a mix of emotions, "Don't you think I'm particularly useless, Greta?"Lucy shook her head and said, "Not at all. You're awesome." She meant it, too. Back when she had just given birth to Solomon and Elio, she was a newbie mom, and she knew nothing. If Noah hadn't stayed by Lucy's side and helped her out, she would've been all over the palace. There w

Noah was both confused and alarmed. "What do you want?"The Faldorian lady smiled, and her grin was enchanting. She pulled out a business card and said, "I'm Alina Blanc, and I specialize in treating sexual dysfunction in married couples. Feel free to look me up if you have relevant conditions. I'll give you a 20% discount."Noah's pride took a hit. He responded awkwardly, "I don't need it." At the next moment, he ran away with his tail tucked between his legs. Lucy took Alina's business card and asked, "How much is the treatment fee after the 20% discount, doctor?"Alina stuck out five fingers and responded, "That'll be 500 thousand dollars. I guarantee I'll cure him completely. If the opposite proves to be true, I'll pay you back the full amount and another hundred thousand dollars."Lucy saw that Noah had gone far. So she said, "I'll keep in touch with you later." She had just taken off after him when she heard Alina's voice from behind. "Talk to your husband again, miss. Yo

Lucy sensed Tobias looking her way, and she was so diffident that she covered her face and ducked behind Noah, obscuring most of herself with his body. Tobias could only see a slender figure standing behind Noah from his angle. He couldn't make out what the lady looked like. For some reason, he merely stared at them in a daze.Angela asked, "What's wrong, Tobe?"Tobias came back to his senses. "It's nothing. Let's hit the road." He led Angela into the car with Marie in tow.Marie Lemoine was stunned when she saw Solomon and Elio. "The twins are carbon copies of yours, Prince Toddy. It's absolutely uncanny. I would've thought they're your kids if I didn't know better!"Angela pointed at the four figures outside the window. "You say that, but Sully and Eli have a mom and a dad."Tobias followed where Angela was pointing and looked over. It just so happened that he saw the back of a man and a lady holding hands with two boys. It made him feel extremely familiar. In a matter of a

Noah said, "Go ahead."Lucy had just turned around and went to the restroom when Tobias came into the pâtisserie with Angela. Solomon and Elio placed their order, and Noah took the tray. He had just turned around when he saw Tobias face-to-face. Both of them exchanged glances and nodded at each other politely. Solomon and Elio were delighted to see Tobias once again. Elio said sweetly, "Hi, mister. We meet again."Tobias looked at them and felt thrilled. "Yeah."Angela said, "Hi, Sully and Eli. What a coincidence. How about we eat the desserts together?"Solomon and Elio were about to agree to it, but Marie coughed lightly. "Let's place our orders first, Angela."Angela responded, "Okay." Then, Tobias took her to the counter. Marie glanced at Solomon and Elio coldly. She said condescendingly, "You two are penniless bozos, and yet you want to have desserts together with Angela. Why don't you two take a look at who you are? What makes you think you deserve it?"Elio and Solom

Tobias and Lucy were completely drowned in the passionate kiss. It had been such a long time since they had been intimate. Now that it happened, they were both completely overwhelmed. Tobias kissed her eagerly. Then, he moved away from her lips and pecked her neck. He proceeded to kiss her collarbone and slip his hand underneath her shirt. Lucy snapped back to her senses and shoved him away. Then, she summarily slapped him and yelled at him angrily, "Pervert!"There was a slap mark on Tobias' stunning face. He snapped out of his trance and thought about the crazy stuff he did to Lucy. He was so shocked that he took two steps back. What was he doing? Tobias couldn't believe that he actually harassed a lady he met for the first time!All of his earlier actions were exactly what a pervert would do. He could very well be taken to the police department for investigation. Tobias looked at Lucy and found her extremely familiar. For the life of him, however, he couldn't recall where

It was night, and Tobias woke up in a ward at the Royal Hospital. The surroundings looked familiar, but it only annoyed him. It was commonplace for Tobias to go to hospital wards for the past years. He'd either feel dizzy or pass out from hunger, and he'd wake up in this particular ward every time, which was prepared exclusively for him. An IV drip was hooked to his hand. Tobias stared at the ceiling and spaced out. He thought about the crazy stuff he did at the pâtisserie's restroom, and he still couldn't understand what happened. It was so shocking that it made Tobias doubt his entire life. He was a prince. How did he turn into a pervert? Was it possible that it was love at first sight?Tobias realized this possibility, and his heart started pounding like crazy. However, his pride and his conscience told him that he was royalty. He couldn't fall in love with a "middle-aged lady" at first sight.Tobias was in the middle of his thoughts when he heard a voice. "Tobe."The door

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
