Meanwhile, Martin and Rosa were worried about Lucy when they couldn't reach her. They sought Sienna and Faith out to ask them about her. The two women were shocked when they found out that Lucy was unreachable."Wait, you can't reach Lucy? Don't panic. I'll call her." Sienna dialed Lucy's number."We've already tried countless times. We can't get through to her!"Sure enough, Sienna found that Lucy's phone had been powered off.Faith said, "Maybe she's at Ripley Residence. Why don't we try asking Tobias?""I don't have his number," Sienna said."Shaun's an entrepreneur, isn't he? Call him and ask him. He should have Tobias' number."Sienna parted her lips. She didn't want to call Shaun."Oh, come on. Stop dilly-dallying! What if Lucy's in danger?" Faith snapped.That made Sienna spring to action. Lucy's safety meant more to her than her pride. She immediately called Shaun. It rang a couple of times before a woman answered it. "Hello?"Sienna's heart felt like it had been stab

During the press conference, Tobias announced that the Ripley and Eberhard families would form an alliance through a political marriage. The news shocked the world!…That night, Chad carried Lucy to the dining table and helped her settle in her seat. "The doctor said you can't move around on your own for now, so I'll carry you wherever you want to go from now on, okay?"She suppressed her repulsion and feigned obedience as she said, "Okay."He laughed tenderly at the sight of that. "Eat. I asked the kitchen to prepare a meal that's catered to a pregnant woman's nutrition.""Thanks." She lowered her head and started eating, but it was like she was chewing cardboard.After dinner, Chad carried her to the living room and placed her on the couch. Throughout the whole thing, Lucy acted like a distraught doll. Her hands and feet were chained, and her skin was bruised from the friction.Chad pulled her into his arms and turned on the TV, deliberately choosing a news channel so they

A dog barked. Faith put her things away, looking alert when she saw a burly man approach with a dog. He asked, "Who are you? What are you doing there?"Sienna cried out in surprise when she saw the dog. It barked at her, looking like it was going to charge at her and bite her. Faith immediately stood before her. Then, the dog pounced at them.Sienna screamed while Faith grabbed a thick branch and swung it around wildly to scare the dog. "You'd better keep your dog on a tight leash! We're just here for a hike. How dare you set your dog on us?""A hike?" The burly man pulled the dog back and appraised them. "You're hiking in the middle of nowhere and at night?""Heh. We've always been in the habit of hiking at night; who would've expected to see a villa here? How much does it cost to stay here for the night, buddy? Can we spend a night here?"The man snapped, "In your dreams. This is private property, and outsiders aren't allowed entry. If you don't leave, I'll get my dog to bite yo

A group of police officers quietly surrounded the hills around Chad's villa. Chad had no idea danger was approaching. All he knew was that Lucy had locked the door when he tried to return to the bedroom. "Open up, Lucy!""I'm already in bed. Go sleep somewhere else," Lucy said. At the same time, she tried to speed up what she was doing. She had already duplicated the shape of the chains' key earlier. All she had to do now was recreate it.Chad got a little angry. "Open the door now, Lucy! Let me in!"He tried to break in. Lucy said, "Don't force your way in. You've already chained my hands and feet, haven't you? Do you think I can go anywhere like this?"He thought about it and found her to be right. "Fine, then. I'll let you off the hook tonight!"He turned and left. Unbeknownst to him, a figure flashed past as soon as his back was turned.It was Tobias, who was dressed in dark attire from head to toe. He'd sneaked into the villa, but there were too many rooms. He could only

Tobias felt like his heart had stopped beating when he saw the car colliding with Lucy. The car screeched to a stop, and he spotted the driver. His gaze darkened instantly. Chad cackled. "Tobias, I will never let you and Lulu live in bliss!""Chad!" Tobias cursed. Fueled by intense murderous intent, he charged at Chad.Chad's eyes flickered. Flooring the accelerating pedal, he zoomed away. "You can't get away. I'll make sure you rot in jail!" Tobias spat with a sneer. Then, he immediately sprinted toward where Lucy had collapsed. Knocked to the ground, Lucy instinctively wrapped her arms around her belly. She heard Tobias' voice in a daze, thinking that it was a mere hallucination before dying. "Hold on, Lulu. I've called a car for us. We'll get to the hospital soon!"Crouched next to her, Tobias was awash in anxiety. He wanted to hold her in his arms, but he was worried that he might cause any further injuries. His breath hitched when he saw the pool of blood beneath her.

Faith had never had a stranger send her home before. Her heart pounded, and she felt inexplicably nervous. But Miles was a police officer, after all. He should've been righteous and honorable, so she must be overthinking. "I live in Goldstein Park. Thanks for the ride, Mr. Chadwick.""It's my honor to escort Lucy's friend home. Let's go."They left the hospital promptly and got in Miles' car. Throughout the journey, he occasionally stole glances at Faith as he drove. Sensing his gaze, Faith felt nervous. "Mr. Chadwick, why do you keep staring at me? I haven't done anything illegal!"Having a very attractive police officer staring at her did make her nervous. But as a law-abiding citizen, she feared and respected the police more. Miles flashed a warm smile at her. "Don't be nervous. I'm just curious about your tracking system. It's really impressive. Have you thought about joining a research institute to contribute such a great product to the country?"Relieved that he was

"Mr. Chadwick, I didn't do that on purpose…"Faith apologized, backing away in haste. Miles gazed at her with a smile. "It's fine. Although it's just an accident, you can kiss me back again if you feel like I took advantage of you.""Huh?" Faith looked bewildered. Amused by her adorable expression, Miles chuckled. "I'm just kidding. I'll get going first. See you."Only then did Faith realize he was teasing her. She blushed and waved at him. "Bye."She closed the door after he left. Clutching onto her pounding chest and her flushed face, she slapped herself lightly. "Remember your goal, Faith! Focus on your career and steer clear of any romantic endeavors!"Faith had felt like she was in love with him earlier. No, this was merely her hallucination. She rubbed her head, not allowing herself to indulge in such wild thoughts. She suddenly remembered Lucy, and she couldn't help but worry. "I wonder whether Lucy has woken up yet. And did that silly Sienna get into a fight with h

Anna gloated at Lucy's miscarriage."Brett, Rhett, that woman suddenly lost her babies. In that case, Tobias no longer has to be responsible for her. Can you guys talk to the Ripleys and confirm my engagement with him as soon as possible?"How Anna wished she could be engaged to Tobias tomorrow! She feared that the longer it took, the more complications would arise.Brett assured her, "Don't worry, Ann. I'll work it out for you."He did feel sorry for Lucy, but he was determined to accomplish Anna's dreams. Anna had gone through a lot, after all. Anna sighed. "I wonder when this will be confirmed…""I'll call the Ripleys now," Brett said. He called the Ripleys soon after, discussing the engagement date with them. Grinning on the other end of the phone, Joey confirmed the announcement of Tobias and Anna's engagement the day after tomorrow. She didn't even consult Tobias' opinion. Brett hung up and turned to Anna. "They've settled the date. They'll announce the engagement in t
