Chapter 1049

Author: Tang Eighteen
Everyone enjoyed dinner, and Selena made up a lot of stories to explain what she had been doing during this time. She almost gave herself away but luckily managed to cover it up.

"Selena, why don’t you just stay over tonight?" Lucy suggested warmly, looking at Selena.

She really wanted to talk with Selena; it had been a long time since they had a proper conversation.

Selena felt conflicted. After hesitating for a moment, she finally said, "Alright, I’d like to have a good talk with you too."

The dilemma was that Mark gave her her medicine daily, and if she stayed at Lucy’s place tonight, she might return late tomorrow. However, she truly wanted to spend time with Lucy.

She had been so lonely lately, constantly thinking about her friends. Now that she finally had the chance to see Lucy, she could not pass up the opportunity to stay the night.

"Great, it's settled, then! We’ll go to a night fair tonight. It’s full of delicious food and fun things to do!" Lucy said excitedly, smili

    "It's nothing. I'm fine, just feeling a bit unwell from adjusting to the local environment again. After all, I’ve been away for over a year, and coming back has been a little hard to get used to," Selena explained.Lucy did not think much of it. After all, she was busy every day—cooking, taking care of the kids, and managing the household. Although she cared deeply about Selena, hearing her explanation was enough to put her mind at ease.The two of them continued sipping their tea. Just as they were about to leave, Lucy suddenly spotted Koven on the street outside.Lucy felt awkward while Selena grew anxious. She had not told Koven that she was back, nor had she intended to inform him. Ever since she learned about what Koven had done, she did not want anything to do with him.Selena silently reassured herself, 'Why should I be afraid of him? There’s nothing to fear!'"Selena, do you want to..." Lucy whispered, pointing to Koven outside.Koven was out there drinking and eating lob

    "Let go of me!" Selena was growing frustrated. Deep down, she wanted to have a proper conversation with Koven, but her rational mind would not allow it. In Koven’s arms, Selena wriggled like a wild cat trying to escape but could not get free. Koven held her tightly, leaving her no room to move."Answer me! Why did you suddenly leave? And now that you're back, why didn’t you tell me? If I hadn’t seen you today, would we have never met again?" Koven almost shouted in anger."Yes!" Selena stared ahead, her heart aching as she saw the man she once loved in such pain. She loved and hated him. She loved him for how much she cared for him but hated him for betraying her."Does none of what we said back then matter anymore? You promised we’d be together forever, that we’d have a cute child together. Have you forgotten all of that?" Koven asked sternly."I’ve forgotten!" The light that once filled Selena’s eyes was gone. Wearing heavy makeup, she looked at Koven with a cold expression. Sh

    Koven’s face was filled with disbelief as he looked at Selena, completely at a loss for words. He had rehearsed everything he wanted to say to win her back, but now, it seemed like none of that mattered anymore.Feeling disoriented, Koven forced a smile and waved goodbye before walking away. When Selena uttered those words, her heart was conflicted. However, she reminded herself not to soften. Koven was not worth it.Watching him leave, Selena thought of the past. It used to be Koven watching her walk away, and now, the roles were reversed. This time, Koven did not look back and did not cry or make a scene. He simply walked quietly down the street and disappeared around the corner.When Selena returned to Lucy’s house, she found Lucy still waiting for her, with Matthew sitting by her side. Selena felt a pang of guilt. The moment Lucy saw her, she quickly apologized, "Selena, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have left you like that earlier, but I thought since you and Koven hadn’t seen each

    When she saw Koven, Selena did not want to admit how much she missed him. After leaving him, she thought about him constantly, and it frustrated her. Even though he was the one who cheated first, she still could not forget him.Mark, on the other hand, had a great temper and was always patient with her. Besides cooking, he would bring her little trinkets every day to make her happy. Selena had grown accustomed to life with Mark, but it was just a habit—nothing more. She could not accept Mark romantically, and they remained friends.Mark understood that Selena was a stubborn person, but he was content. As long as Selena stayed, that was enough to satisfy him.Yesterday, Selena sent a message to Lucy on WhatsApp, and now, Lucy was messaging her again. Selena knew Lucy was a lively person and enjoyed chatting with her. Seeing Lucy’s messages, Selena could not help but smile.“You left without even saying goodbye! I was thinking of making breakfast for you first!” Lucy sounded a bit up

    Lucy finally finished her chores and sat down in the lounge chair. Looking around at the spotless and well-organized house, she could not help but sigh in satisfaction. “I, Lucy, am truly both capable and smart. Matthew is so lucky to have married such a perfect wife!”Just as she was basking in her pride, she felt a sharp pain in her chest. She brushed it off, thinking it was nothing serious. She stood up to stretch a bit, but when she sat down again, the pain intensified.Lucy grew anxious and hurried to the hospital, asking Venus and Maria to look after her child. After several tests, nothing unusual was found, which left her puzzled. What was causing this pain? Fortunately, after a while, the pain subsided, and Lucy did not think much of it. She decided to head back home.As she reached the doorstep, she spotted her younger sister, Luna, who looked quite anxious. Lucy did not want to deal with her sister, so she tried to sneak back inside. Whenever Luna came looking for her, it

    Luna almost fell to her knees as she looked at Lucy with pleading eyes, hoping Lucy would help her through this crisis. "Lucy, I know I've been too immature before, always making you angry. But this time, it’s truly urgent. If I don't repay this money, I’ll be done for!" Luna rambled on, pouring her heart out with every word and every tear expressing remorse. Lucy decided to help her. Despite everything, the Quinn family had raised her. Even though they didn't treat her well, they still raised her."How much does Mom owe them?" Lucy asked curiously, not knowing how much Melanie actually owed or how the debt got so high. Luna seemed hesitant, giving Lucy a cautious look before slowly holding up three fingers. "Thirty grand?" Lucy guessed. Luna shook her head, indicating that was not the amount. "Three hundred grand?" Lucy continued, her tone calm and patient. "No..." Luna denied it again. "Could it be three million?" Lucy was shocked. How could Melanie owe so mu

    Lucy typed out a long message on her phone, explaining everything to Matthew, but after staring at it for a while, she quietly deleted it once again. "Mommy, play with me!" Lila tugged at Lucy’s sleeve in her soft, childish voice, wanting to play with her dolls. Lucy looked at her adorable daughter and finally shifted her attention, letting herself focus on her children instead of the worry on her mind. "Johnny, come play with me and your sister!" Lucy called with a smile to her younger son, who was engrossed in playing with his action figures. Hearing Lucy call him, Johnny looked up with wide eyes at her and his sister. He had an adorable expression on his face before he broke into a big smile. "Mommy, I’m coming!" Johnny trotted over, nearly stumbling. His chubby little legs and round cheeks made him irresistibly cute. Lucy scooped up her two kids, giving them kisses and making them giggle uncontrollably. They were drooling from their laughter.Lucy waited for Matthew

    Lucy looked at her serious husband, feeling she could not say anything further. After all, honesty was key between spouses, and deception should have no place. However, when she thought about Luna, Lucy could not bring herself to speak up. Instead, she decided to handle it quietly on her own to avoid involving her family.Without responding to Matthew, she closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep. Matthew, feeling a bit bored, teased her for a while before finally going to bed himself.…The next morning, as soon as Lucy checked her phone, she found it flooded with messages from Luna."Lucy, please help me! They’re back again. I really need the money now..." Lucy stared at the messages for several minutes, feeling overwhelmed. Luna was truly relentless. Did her fingers not get tired from all that typing?Lucy replied, "I’m working on it. Just stay calm and follow my instructions, okay?"Luna replied instantly with a simple response followed by more messages of gratitude, so muc

    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

    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
