The Shotgun Marriage: She's the Apple of His Eye Chapter 53
After Tobias had been kidnapped as a child, he had often been haunted by nightmares, leading to chronic insomnia. The long-term lack of sleep had also led to his frequent headaches.Lucy lay beside him, while his head rested on her thighs. She gently massaged his head with her slender fingers, and Tobias slipped into a deep sleep about ten minutes later.Even though her legs were numb, Lucy tenderly cradled his head and covered him with a blanket. She then attended to herself and washed up. Meanwhile, Chad asked around and found out that Lucy was in this hospital. However, outsiders were not allowed in since it was a royal hospital. Hence, Chad could only wander outside the hospital.After Lucy finished washing up, she heard her phone vibrating. She quickly picked it up. Worried that it might wake Tobias, she answered the call in the bathroom. "Hello."Chad said excitedly, "Lulu, you finally answered my call!""Chad, I was just about to call you that day, but something came up,

"Chad, what nonsense are you talking about?" Lucy's expression turned serious.Chad forced a smile. "Lulu, I was just joking. Don't take it seriously."Looking stern, Lucy said coldly, "We're talking about lives here. You shouldn't joke about such matters.""Alright." A glint of cold malice flickered in Chad's eyes. Lucy used to have eyes only for him. Why was she so cold and serious toward him now?It had to be Tobias's fault! Once Tobias was out of the picture, Lucy would be his!"By the way, you said that you found your family. Congratulations on finally reuniting with your parents," Lucy said sincerely. However, she failed to notice the fleeting hostility in Chad's eyes when he heard the word "parents". He sneered inwardly. The waiter arrived with two drinks. Lucy reached for a glass of juice and took a couple of sips.She said, "Chad, I appreciate your feelings, but fate has dealt us a cruel hand. I'm married now, and I'm unworthy of your affection. You should find a b

Noticing Tobias' distrust, Lucy felt a slight pang in her heart.Her eyes dimmed with sadness. "Tobias, regardless of whom I meet, I've never betrayed your trust. What do you mean by questioning me like this?"Had he found out about her meeting with Chad last night?With an inquisitive gaze, Tobias stared deeply into her eyes. His commanding presence made it impossible for her to evade his scrutiny, and even the slightest flicker of guilt in her eyes didn't escape his notice.His heart turned to ice, and it twisted painfully."What do I mean?" Tobias sneered. "You know I don't want to end up like my parents. If you've done something to betray me..."What would he do then?Divorce was out of the question, but his pride couldn't bear the thought of infidelity. Tobias' emotions were tangled at that moment, leaving him deeply conflicted."What are you going to do? Divorce me?"Tobias said, "I'll offer you one last chance."Lucy sighed softly. "Tobias, please hear me out. Last nig

Anna wondered why Sasha had asked whether Tobias and Lucy were really falling for each other. Could it be that Tobias and Lucy were in a contract marriage? As Anna thought about this, she felt as though she had stumbled upon an important revelation! She took out her phone and turned on the recording feature.Meanwhile, Lucy was taken aback by Sasha's analysis. Even though she and Tobias had known each other for less than three months, the mere possibility of them falling in love filled her with a strangely sweet sensation.She grappled with conflicting emotions but still rationalized Tobias' behavior. "How could Tobias be jealous? He's probably just asserting his masculinity and felt embarrassed, which is why he questioned me!"Sasha said, "Lucy, you're just in denial. Admit it, you've fallen for Tobias!"Lucy lowered her head. Despite her calm facade, her heart raced furiously. "We've barely known each other for three months. How could I possibly have feelings for him?"Sas

Upon hearing Tobias' voice, Lucy felt an inexplicable sense of nervousness. She took a deep breath, opened the door, and entered the room.Before she could utter a word, Tobias asked, "Have you figured out what to say?"He had been waiting for her to tell the truth. As long as she explained everything clearly, he might forgive her.Lucy was caught off guard for a moment. She then nodded and said, "Yes, I'll explain everything to you. Last night, I did meet Chad briefly, and we talked for a bit. But it was completely innocent; I did nothing to betray you.""Oh." Tobias' response was coupled with a subtle, sarcastic grin. "Then, why was his cologne's scent lingering on you?"This detail had greatly unsettled Tobias.Lucy was genuinely surprised. Chad had only hugged her for less than two minutes. How could the scent of his cologne linger on her so persistently? Was it accidental or intentional?Lucy awkwardly said, "As I was leaving, he suddenly hugged me. That might be why…"Hal

"Tobias, I heard you wanted to see me. Do you miss me?" As soon as Anna stepped into the room, she flirtatiously sat on Tobias' bed as if she were about to pounce on him. However, Tobias gave her a cold glare.That gaze seemed capable of crushing her to dust.Anna froze in her tracks, standing firmly by the side. "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"Tobias took out his phone and retrieved the text messages he had gotten from an unfamiliar number earlier. Tossing the phone toward her, he asked, "Did you send these messages?" Anna's gaze flickered. "Tobias, I'm not sure what you're talking about...""You know how much I hate lies and cheating," Tobias said with a steely gaze. "Given our history, I'm offering you one last chance."He had evidence to back his words. The person he had assigned to track Lucy had also spotted Anna, leading him to suspect that she might have been the one behind the message.Anna cried, "Tobias, please don't blame me. I saw you being a

Upon hearing Anna's complaints, Brett and Rhett looked at each other in astonishment.Brett said, "Ann, you're the precious daughter of the Eberhard family. What kind of man is beyond your reach? Don't concern yourself with a lowlife."Rhett added, "That's right, Ann. Forget about this scumbag. We will find you someone more trustworthy."Anna replied, "Brett, Rhett, my boyfriend is not a scoundrel. He was momentarily deceived by that woman. He genuinely loves me, but he felt obligated to marry her. We are the ones who truly love each other. Brett, Rhett, please help me..."Brett and Rhett realized that was how things were!"Do you have a photo of that woman? If what you say is true, we’ll find a way to contact her and have a proper talk.""I have one. I'll send it over!""Alright."After ending the call, Anna forwarded the photo.As the two brothers viewed it, they were shocked. Wasn't this Lucy Everhart?Rhett exclaimed, "How could it be her? How could such a radiant woman p

Lucy was taking a bath when she heard the phone ring. Seeing an unfamiliar number, she hesitated for a moment before answering."Hello.""Hello, is this Ms. Lucy Everhart?" The voice on the other end was very pleasant."Who is this?" Lucy asked, puzzled."Hello, I'm Brett Eberhard, the president of Eberhard Group. I came across the video of your impromptu design online, and I think you have incredible potential. I'd like to discuss a multimillion-dollar collaboration with you. Could we arrange a face-to-face meeting?"Lucy's eyes narrowed. Potential collaborators would usually contact her assistant first, but this person had reached out to her directly.Had he investigated her beforehand?Lucy asked, "How did you get my number?"Brett was taken aback for a moment. This woman was composed and not easily swayed by the lure of profit. Interesting!"Ms. Everhart, how I got your contact information isn't important," Brett replied smoothly. "What matters is the substantial salar
