Chapter 1056

Author: Tang Eighteen
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 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

    When Lucy heard this, her expression darkened. What a scumbag! How could Timothy do such a thing? Not only was he unfaithful, but he also treated his wife so terribly. She recalled how he had once pursued her with such intensity, only for him to ultimately abandon her. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.Lucy remembered witnessing firsthand the shameful affair between him and Luna. Just thinking about it made her blood boil. Yet, looking at Luna now, filled with bitterness, Lucy’s anger subsided a bit. After all, Luna seemed to be suffering now too.Lucy understood why her husband, Matthew, would not lend Luna money. She simply was not trustworthy. However, due to their ties, Lucy felt she could not turn her back on her.Meanwhile, Lila was fussing in her arms, refusing to eat. Lucy gently coaxed her, helping her use her cutlery with the patience of an exceptionally gentle mother. Luna watched them, her eyes full of envy and tenderness. Lucy really seemed to hav

    Luna looked around her spacious room and started bouncing on the soft bed. It was so comfortable! Though she had her own bed, sleeping in someone else's bed was different."Yes, sleeping in someone else's bed is different!" Luna said with a mischievous smile, her eyes bloodshot. A sinister smirk formed on her lips, looking truly chilling!"Here, have some fruit!" Lucy came in from outside, carrying a plate of fruit for Luna.Seeing Lucy approaching, Luna's expression shifted, her face breaking into a broad smile. "Thank you, Lucy."After getting her settled, Lucy went out and messaged Matthew, saying, "Luna’s recently been dealing with a tricky situation, and I think it’d be good for her to stay here a few days so that we can spend some time together."Matthew replied with a simple response after a long time. Seeing his reply, Lucy felt relieved. Matthew always gave her peace of mind, trusting her unconditionally—that was one of the things she loved about him.In the afternoon,

    Maria held Johnny tightly, glaring angrily at Luna while still gently soothing the child."Johnny nearly fell into the pond! Didn't you see that? And you didn’t even try to help!" Maria exclaimed, furious. She had never encountered such a cold-hearted woman—someone who would even attempt to harm her own sister’s child. The child was innocent, and Lucy had done nothing to wrong her.Luna, unfazed, showed no reaction. She chose to continue playing games with Lila, ignoring Maria completely.A while later, Lucy returned and noticed Johnny crying in Maria’s arms. Confused, she asked, "Maria, what happened?"Maria glanced at Luna but remained silent, focusing on comforting Johnny.Luna seized the moment, putting on an innocent act. "Lucy, you wouldn't believe it! Just now, Johnny almost fell into the pond. Luckily, I managed to grab him in time, but Maria blamed me for being too slow, and then Johnny started crying!"Maria was beside herself with anger, starting to protest, "That’s no

    Today, Matthew returned home with Koven, hoping to spend some time together as it had been a while since they last caught up. Lucy and Maria prepared a variety of dishes for them to enjoy.Lucy mentioned Luna to Matthew, who shrugged it off, saying it was fine as long as she did not cause trouble. Matthew had originally planned to rent a place outside for Luna, wanting to avoid any unnecessary issues by having her stay in the house. However, out of respect for Lucy, he reluctantly agreed to let her stay, though he knew Luna was far from deserving of any sympathy. Luna could easily have found a place outside, but she chose to stir things up by staying here instead.Today, though, Matthew’s main concern was Koven, who had been feeling down over Selena’s situation. Matthew wanted to comfort him. Years ago, the whole incident with Cece was her doing alone. Koven had been drinking at a bar when Cece approached him with a drink. Koven did not touch the drink, but in a moment when he wa

    Beside them, Koven looked on in disbelief. Usually, no man would treat such a beautiful woman this way, right? Also, this woman was truly audacious, daring even to approach Matthew.After scolding Luna, Matthew sighed inwardly. Thankfully, Lucy had not seen this, or he would have had to spend ages explaining. Luna really disgusted him.Koven coughed to alert Matthew, reminding him of his wife behind him.Luna noticed Lucy as well and walked over, looking aggrieved, “Lucy, just now I…”Before she could finish, Lucy slapped her directly.Koven and Matthew were both stunned; this was the first time they had seen Lucy so fierce!“That one was for plotting against my son!” Lucy said sharply, then delivered another slap. “And this one is for my husband. You already have a husband, yet you still wear such suggestive clothes in my home and dare to seduce him. Do you think you don’t deserve to be slapped? I’m already being lenient with you!”With two slaps, Luna’s cheeks turned red and s

    Matthew and Lucy exchanged a smile, both feeling extremely awkward. They had forgotten about Koven!Matthew walked Koven to the door, inviting him to meet up another day, and Koven quietly agreed.'Married men really don’t have any freedom!' Koven thought to himself. Even so, he still wished he could get married. It was just that Selena was no longer around.Outside, Luna was packing up her things, taking a bunch of bags with her. It was obvious she was clearing out everything Lucy had set up for her in that room. No one stopped her as the items were not worth much, so they just let her go.As she left, she muttered complaints under her breath. She acted as if everyone owed her something. She looked like a different person from earlier in the day, a complete opposite.Lucy sighed as she watched Luna leave in such a sorry state. Was she too heavy-handed earlier? However, looking at Johnny, she felt that it was nothing. Luna had no qualms about hurting such a small child, so what we

    The headmistress felt insulted. Was she really that easy to ignore? Her expression turned exceedingly sour, her wrinkles and frowning mouth pulling her face into a bitter scowl.No one had ever dared to treat her like this—everyone usually showed her respect. Charlotte truly did not know what was good for her. If it had been someone else behaving this way, they would already be in pieces or begging for mercy.“Are you challenging my authority?” the headmistress asked coldly, her tone lofty, giving an air of untouchability.Charlotte did not want to deal with this old woman at all. She found her tiresome and extremely irritating, always coming to bother her for no reason. This woman was truly a peculiar one.The headmistress, clearly annoyed, sneered, “So, the high-and-mighty princess has fallen into the mud! Acting so high and mighty, but you’re here now, eating the same simple meals as the rest of us. Who do you think you are? You’re no better than me now.”She spoke each word de

    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.
