Chapter 1007

Author: Tang Eighteen
Matthew understood. Bellamy had not returned to his 20th-century body in decades, meaning his body in that world had likely turned to dust or ashes by now. Had his real body already been cremated? Was he truly dead?

Matthew was on the verge of losing it. He still had a wife to take care of, a mother to honor, and a company with many people depending on him.

“Sir, what do I do? Could it be that I’ve already been buried?” Matthew was extremely anxious, veins bulging on his forehead and sweat streaming down his face.

“I don’t know. It depends on your situation. Do you still remember your last memory before coming here?” the old man asked.

“My last memory?”

“Yes, exactly. I’m not sure how I ended up here either, but one thing’s for sure—there was something wrong with that lollipop!" Bellamy sat by the fire, adding more wood while explaining to Matthew.

Matthew thought for a long time. His last memory... He saw Koven cheating on Selena, then he drove away. “No, I can’t be dead. That’

    The two walked out of the small cabin. As Matthew looked at the scenery outside, he was filled with emotion. The saying 'It’s lonely at the top' made sense, but the beauty of it was undeniable as well.White clouds encircled the mountain, making it look like a fairyland. It was an unforgettable sight. Snow blanketed the mountain peak, resembling a swirl of chocolate ice cream with cream on top. From this height, one could also see Peach Blossom Village, still bathed in the colors of spring. Patches of red and purple adorned the grass, like a beautiful landscape painting. Matthew gazed at it for a long time—so, this was how stunning a virtual world can be!But in the next second, he heard the sound of hooves, followed by the chaotic noise of a crowd below. The village was in complete disarray, though Matthew could not tell what had happened. He quickly caught up to the Bellamy and asked, “Where are we going? What’s happening down there?”“Quiet!” Bellamy scolded. “If you keep shoutin

    Their bodies were shaped like humans, and they were dressed in beautiful clothes while emitting a faint blue light. Matthew liked them very much and cautiously touched one with his finger. Matthew yelled and stepped back, looking at his bleeding finger. Fortunately, it was just a scare. He did not feel any pain. The sprite, now angry, flew into the air and glared fiercely at Matthew, ready to further punish the one who had disturbed its sleep. Matthew quickly hid behind Bellamy. Bellamy said something, and only then did the sprite relent.“Don’t provoke them. They’re very fierce,” Bellamy looked back at Matthew with an expression full of disdain. This was not his first visit. Matthew nodded vigorously, signaling that he would behave and not do anything excessive again. “Luckily, the other sprites didn’t wake up, or they would've torn you to pieces, and I wouldn’t have been able to save you!” Bellamy muttered a few words. Matthew signaled him to stop talking. Although he did no

    Matthew was completely bewildered. Which one was the real world? What space was he in? Where had Bellamy gone? Was this really Lucy?With countless questions racing through his mind, Matthew ran into his house and grabbed Lucy's hand—it was warm. He pinched his own face, and he felt a sensation. Could it be that he had returned to the real world?"Lucy, where is this?" Matthew asked anxiously, desperate to get answers immediately.Lucy looked puzzled. Matthew seemed a bit off. This was clearly their home, so why was he asking such a strange question?"Honey, this is our home!" Lucy responded sweetly, not forgetting to smooth out the wrinkles on Matthew's shirt."Dad! Mom!" A pretty girl who looked a lot like Matthew ran over, followed closely by a little boy who also called out.The two children appeared to be around ten years old. Matthew's eyes widened. These were his children? They should not be older than a year! No matter how he calculated, there was no way they could be thi

    In the middle of the night, Matthew tested a few times before confirming that Lucy seemed to be asleep. To be thorough, Matthew lightly patted her several times."Lucy!"She was in a deep sleep, and Matthew felt relieved as he got out of bed and quietly rummaged through her closet and jewelry. If he remembered correctly, Lucy should have kept the necklace he gave her when they went shopping last time.Matthew carefully searched and, to his surprise, found it. Still, he could not believe it. None of the signs could definitively prove that this woman was really Lucy.After searching for a long time, every object was something he recognized, all evidence of their time together. This only deepened Matthew's confusion. Could it be that the problem was with him?He kept searching and found a box he had never seen before. The box was a deep green, covered in dust. From the flashlight's beam, it looked like a discarded item.Just as Matthew was about to open it, someone suddenly patted h

    Matthew couldn’t make sense of it all. Selena had disappeared, and Koven had an affair, so how did they end up having a child together?He found himself by a lakeside, deep in thought as he stared at the scenery in front of him. The sun shone down on the lake, and the wind created shimmering ripples across the surface, like countless tiny scales.Matthew began to suspect that even the sun was fake. He looked up, but the sun was still the same.As he was about to lower his gaze, a kite shaped like a swallow flew across the sky, passing through the sunlight and continuing its flight forward. Matthew's attention was drawn to it, but soon, the kite lost momentum, falling and getting tangled in a tree.Following the direction of the kite, Matthew spotted a small boy. The boy was worried about his kite and was looking around anxiously, trying to find something to retrieve it.Walking along the lakeshore, Matthew approached the boy. The boy was adorably chubby, his face puffed out like h

    Mark gazed at Matthew, who lay on the bed. There were now signs of some physical responses—frowning, fingers twitching—which indicated that he was starting to come out of the danger of being in a vegetative state.Mark nodded in satisfaction. It seemed that his experiment was working on Matthew.He took out a syringe and injected another dose into Matthew.Meanwhile, Lucy and Gabriella waited anxiously in the waiting room. Early that morning, Mark had called to ask them to come in and sign some paperwork. Both Lucy and Gabriella were terrified that something bad had happened to Matthew, so they came to the hospital bracing themselves for the worst.Lucy was crying uncontrollably, with tears streaming down her face. It had been so long since she had last seen Matthew, and if this turned out to be bad news, she could not imagine how she would go on without him.Mark emerged from the ward, removing the sterile suit he had been wearing. His eyes lit up as he approached the two women.

    Matthew felt utterly drained. Even opening his eyes was a struggle, and his eyes ached unbearably. He could faintly hear people murmuring around him.'Hmm? Isn’t that Lucy?' Matthew thought to himself. He could also hear the voice of Gabriella, his mother, and some other familiar voices that he could not quite place.After a while, Matthew slowly opened his eyes. Lucy was sitting by his bedside, gazing at him with tears still glistening in her eyes. She looked so pitiful, so delicate, that it tugged at his heartstrings. Matthew could not tell if this was the real Lucy or just an illusion, so he chose not to respond.He turned his head and saw his mother, Gabriella. Her face was worn with exhaustion as she watched him carefully.Matthew wanted to speak but could only manage a faint whisper. "Where... am I?"Lucy leaned in, hoping to catch what he was saying, but his words were too unclear. Finally, it was Mark who interpreted Matthew’s weak attempt at speech. After nearly a month

    In the morning, Lucy bought a big bag of groceries, including tomatoes, eggs, tofu, and beef.She planned to make a heartfelt lunch for Matthew."Theodore, come help me quickly!" Lucy called out to Theodore while she rinsed the vegetables on the side.Hearing her, Theodore came over, picked up the beef, and began pounding it fiercely.His task was to tenderize the beef and mince it, which would then be used to make delicious beef balls.Lucy skillfully cracked the eggs into a bowl before whisking them.Next, she sliced the prepared scallions and sprinkled them evenly into the bowl that contained the egg. The perfect egg and scallion mixture was ready.Then, she heated the pan with oil and poured in cooking oil. As the oil heated, bubbles began to rise. When there were no more bubbles, the oil was ready.Lucy waited until the oil stopped bubbling, tested the temperature by hovering her hand above the pan, and poured the egg mixture in.In an instant, the kitchen was filled with

    As Gabriella examined the luxurious clothes, bags, shoes, and pants, she could not help but feel that Lucy was completely unappreciative of such treasures. She failed to utilize them to enhance her appearance! They spent quite a while going through the various garments and accessories, yet there were still items they had not finished checking out.Lucy gave an awkward smile, acknowledging her own laziness. After a long search, Gabriella finally found a piece that caught her eye. As she checked the tag, she was surprised to find that the dress was designed by a renowned French designer. It featured a V-neck, with simple yet elegant sleeves that revealed a hint of Lucy's arms, while the skirt was a refined and tailored fit.Gabriella held up the dress against Lucy, murmuring to herself, “Hmm, this one’s nice! You should try it on!” Even though she spoke to Lucy in a tone reminiscent of an older sister, she still maintained her authority as a mother-in-law. It made her words both

    Since the previous incident, Lucy had become increasingly attentive to her children. She watched over them at nearly every moment. She feared that Charlotte might seize any chance to harm the children, so she remained vigilant and meticulous, avoiding any lapses. In her eyes, Matthew Leon and the children represented her entire world, and she could not afford even the slightest mishap.One day, Gabriella Sharpe visited their home. She arrived as lively as ever, wearing impeccably applied makeup that included an expensive shade of lipstick. Her appearance radiated the elegance of a woman of high social standing, making her stand out among the people on the street.Lucy welcomed Gabriella warmly, treating her with utmost respect. It created an atmosphere of family harmony. Gabriella settled into a chair, savoring the fruit that Lucy offered her. She held Johnny closely, reluctant to part with him. She showered him with compliments and laughter."Mom, you seem to be in a great mood l

    Matthew noticed Lucy’s absent-mindedness and asked gently, "Lulu, what’s on your mind?"“Oh, nothing… I just think what happened to Charlotte is so sudden,” Lucy replied.“Don’t worry about it. It has nothing to do with us. She was always trying to harm you. Her fate is something she brought upon herself.” Matthew patted her head comfortingly.However, Lucy found it suspicious. Although the news reported Charlotte’s assassination and that the monastery had burned down to ashes, it did not mention her body. That kind of crucial detail would not have been overlooked by the media.Matthew had also considered this possibility, but he had kept it to himself to avoid alarming Lucy. Charlotte had been sent to the monastery because of him and Lucy, and she had to harbor a deep hatred for them. If she managed to orchestrate her own escape, what if she was now seeking help from Spades to target Lucy? That would be dangerous.“Lulu, don’t worry. I won’t let anything happen to you or the ch

    With nothing left to hold onto, Charlotte walked down the empty streets, her heart heavy with despair. She wore a black veil that covered her completely, revealing only her eyes. She even had on dark sunglasses. She dared not walk in the open or be seen, nor did she dare expose Juliana’s crimes to the world.She used to be a princess. Everything she had done, every privilege and indulgence, was backed by Arthur and Juliana’s love and permission. Now that her supporters had betrayed her, what right did she have to be reckless or demand anything? Surviving itself was a luxury. How could she even think of acting willfully?As she wandered in anguish, Charlotte found herself by the river. She remembered coming here with Arthur and Juliana when she was a child, laughing and walking along the bank. Now, each memory felt painfully ironic, and every kiss from Juliana seemed sickening. How could her world be so false? How could even the people she trusted most turn against her?Charlotte cou

    Charlotte continued to hide within the castle, unwilling to leave and equally unwilling to let anyone know she was alive—unless they promised never to send her back to the monastery. However, she doubted that would happen, so she kept to the shadows. After all, the castle had plenty of food. It was far better than anything at the monastery.One night, Charlotte quietly slipped into Arthur and Juliana's bedroom. To her surprise, Arthur was not there, and only Juliana was present. 'Dad must be too upset to sleep,' Charlotte thought. She knew him well—whenever he was troubled, he would retreat to the study rather than go to bed.As she watched her beloved mother, a tiny bit of her resolve wavered. Juliana looked utterly exhausted, as if she had lost a lot of weight in just a few days. Charlotte had a sudden urge to go in and comfort her, but she knew that was impossible. Charlotte realized that seeing someone through a wall of separation was the most painful thing of all.Just as

    The next morning, news of the assassination attempt on Charlotte was sensationalized across all media outlets. The internet was flooded with headlines about her close brush with death, sparking worldwide shock. No one could believe that Charlotte, notorious for her arrogance and harsh treatment of offenders, could have been targeted like this. Many who resented her strict, often cruel ways were both thrilled and stunned by the news. The royal family immediately tightened security at the monastery, dispatching a large police force to investigate what had happened. The monastery became a focal point of public intrigue.“What? That's impossible! How could there be no trace?” Juliana exclaimed in disbelief. Standing before her was the chief forensic investigator.“Yes, Your Majesty, there's no sign of Princess Charlotte’s remains,” the investigator confirmed firmly.“Fine, I understand. Leave me, and keep me informed if anything changes,” Juliana replied, pressing her fingers to her

    As the footsteps came closer, Charlotte held her breath, not daring to make a sound. Suddenly, a shadowy figure appeared—it was clear they were targeting her. She watched as the figure approached the bed, moving so quietly it was as if they made no sound at all. What could they possibly be planning? Surely, the headmistress would not go this far?The figure drew closer to the bed, bundled up the pillows and blankets, and then doused something over them. Charlotte could smell it—it was gasoline! Was the headmistress planning to kill her to silence her? She froze, unable to move. The shadow struck a match and dropped it onto the bed. In an instant, flames surged up from the blankets.In the fire’s glow, Charlotte could make out that it was not the headmistress but a man. After setting the fire, he quickly slipped away without making a single sound. Charlotte crept out while stifling a cough, afraid he might hear and return. The flames grew quickly, engulfing the bed and spreading t

    Over the past year or so, Charlotte had gradually come to understand that the world was not just about picturesque landscapes and lavish feasts. In the shadows, beyond her sight, lay a world full of schemes and deception. Despite her ongoing attempts to plot against Lucy Quinn, she had not noticed this aspect at all until she arrived at the monastery. Here, she realized how dark human nature could truly be.The women at the monastery constantly criticized and belittled her, while the headmistress was corrupt, using her position for personal vendettas. She was also driven by greed for wealth and status. All Charlotte wanted was to escape this dreadful place and return to her castle. She wanted to go back to her plush, comfortable bed. There, she led a life surrounded by maids tending to her every need.Thinking of this, she remembered Lucy and envisioned her seated in her rightful place, basking in the affection of Arthur and Juliana. She could see Lucy's haughty expression starin

    In a moment of heat, Charlotte blurted everything out. Joan was dumbfounded! Was this really Charlotte? She usually did not talk this much, did she? It was not just Joan who was shocked; the headmistress across from Charlotte was equally taken aback. Charlotte was usually so obedient. How had her tongue turned so venomous today? The headmistress was left speechless as every word Charlotte said was so reasonable that no one could argue against it, and it even warranted some compliments! Although Charlotte was confronting the headmistress, each of her statements felt like a plea for justice.Charlotte was not done yet and continued, “Since you know I’m a princess, you should give me some consideration. Yet, in reality, I’m the one giving you all the consideration. Is that reasonable?” Charlotte’s arguments were layered and logical, her thoughts clear. It left the headmistress in a muddle while Joan looked on with envy! The headmistress glanced at Charlotte, feeling quite displease
