In the faraway royal palace of Charleston, the family was having their long-awaited annual gathering. Everyone at the table was having a good time.However, something was not quite right. Sitting at the head of the table, the queen was robotically cutting her steak and absentmindedly stuffing it into her mouth. Her gaze was unfocused as she was lost in thought.The king noticed that the queen was distracted, so he asked with concern, “My dear, what’s wrong? You seem preoccupied today.”The queen snapped out of her reverie and smiled at her husband. She shook her head and said, “Nothing’s wrong, my dear. I was just informed a moment ago that our precious little princess has been found. I believe that she’ll be brought back very soon.”She lowered her head, her eyes filled with infinite anticipation. “I wonder what kind of personality our little princess has. Will she be as adorable as Charlotte? Just thinking about it makes me so excited.”The king shook his head helplessly and loo

Prince Theodore, who was also sitting at the dinner table, overheard the conversation between Juliana and Charlotte. He was filled with immense joy.He had an outgoing and gentle nature. The thought of having a new little sister warmed his heart. While the Charleston royal family tended to be quite reserved toward outsiders, family members were an exception.At that moment, the butler hastily entered the room with a panicked expression and rushed to King Arthur's side, neglecting the usual formalities.Arthur frowned in annoyance, staring at the butler disapprovingly. “Wells, what’s the matter with you? You’ve been with me for over a decade, yet you forget even the most basic courtesy?”Wells bowed his head in shame, apologizing to Arthur. “I’m terribly sorry, Your Majesty. It wasn’t intentional, but I have an extremely urgent matter I must report to you.”Surprised by the butler’s uncharacteristic urgency, Arthur grew curious. He told Wells, “What could be this urgent? Slow down.

Lucy was sleeping soundly in the ward until the sound of the door opening startled her awake. Usually, such a slight noise would not disturb her, but it was probably due to her feeling uneasy.As soon as she heard the familiar voices, her eyes were wide open. She found it strange that she could not fall back asleep after waking up. Closing her eyes did not help either, so she decided to sit up.Cillian and Matthew did not notice Lucy at first. They assumed that she was still sleeping until they saw her sitting up, wide awake. Matthew looked at her with concern, “Wifey, why don’t you sleep a little longer? Did we wake you up by opening the door?”Listening to how Matthew called her 'wifey', Lucy blushed in embarrassment. She shook her head and said, “No, it’s not that. The door wasn’t that loud.“By the way, have you two finished your discussion?”Before Matthew could respond, Lucy interrupted him by asking him a question first. To be frank, she did not have any memories with Matth

Matthew understood his wife’s microexpressions very well. He looked at her apologetically and said, “I’m sorry, but based on the information we’ve gathered so far, there’s a high chance that you were targeted because of me.”Bewildered, Lucy blinked her eyes and asked, “Why?”Matthew sighed. It seemed like his wife had completely forgotten about him and who he was.After a brief pause, he decided to properly introduce himself to her so that his wife would at least know something about her husband.He gazed earnestly into her eyes and said, “Lulu, I’m Matthew Leon, the CEO of Leon Corporation. I'm the number one businessman in the world.“It might be due to business reasons. My business rivals might have regarded you as a vulnerability.”Matthew frowned. He was still unsure about this conclusion, but it was the best explanation he could come up with for now.Meanwhile, Lucy was shocked to learn about Matthew's identity.How could she have married such a powerful man? The fact th

Although one of them had lost their memory, Lucy and Matthew were still able to interact with each other without any sense of unfamiliarity.Oh wait, was someone being forgotten? Oh, Cillian?As soon as he saw Lucy and Matthew talking, he left the ward expressionlessly. Of course, he was not going to stand there and watch the woman he loved getting intimate with another man. He would go insane from the jealousy, so before he lost control of his emotions, he had better leave.Outside the ward, Cillian leaned his head against the door in his thin clothes. The ward was well-soundproofed, so he could not hear what was going on inside, but he still felt a bit lonely.A nurse passed by the ward and noticed Cillian sitting by the door, so she grew concerned. “Mr. Sullivan, why are you sitting here with so little clothing when you just came out of surgery? What if you get sick? You’ll suffer even more then. Here, let me push you in.”Cillian snapped out of it and gently smiled at the nu

Even so, what did it matter? It was not like he could achieve anything by being restless. If he wanted to put the blame on someone, he should blame the person who paid to assassinate his wife.A trace of coldness flashes in Matthew’s eyes. He did not even say goodbye to Lucy before he left the hospital and drove to his company.By the time he arrived, he had already started acting. His eyes were bloodshot, and his face and lips were drained of all color. At the same time, he was emanating an aura that was never before associated with Matthew—desolation.The receptionist was startled to see Matthew in such a state. She cautiously greeted him, “Good morning, Mr. Leon.”Matthew did not even spare a glance at her before taking the elevator to his office.Not long after, news spread throughout the top floor that an emergency meeting would be held shortly. All the shareholders hurriedly made their way there.Half an hour later, they were all assembled in the conference room. Each of th

Matthew spent the day in his villa, and by the next morning, he finished sorting out the matter at the hospital. Those who knew about Lucy’s rescue were silenced with money. Matthew even placed spies around their living areas to ensure that no information about his wife would be leaked.Next on his agenda, Matthew called his butler, who promptly arrived. His butler was shocked to see his master in such a desolate state.“Sir, what happened to you?”Matthew shook his head with his reddened eyes. “Prepare a coffin. I’m going to bring my wife home.“Notify everyone to attend Mrs. Leon’s funeral in seven days.”The butler could not digest the information, and he was left bewildered. Lucy was fine just a few days ago. How did she suddenly pass away? Seeing Matthew’s red eyes and sensing the despair and madness emanating from him, the butler wisely held back his words. He also decided that he would inform Gabriella later.It was not out of fear that Matthew would take his own life bu

With all the information on Spades in front of him, Matthew was feeling lost on where to start until he heard the doorbell ring.Frowning, he approached the door. When he checked the security camera, he felt annoyed. Why was she here? He was exhausted after spending the whole day acting, so he did not want to see anyone right now.He clicked on the intercom and said to the woman at the door, “Go back. You’re not welcome here.”Perhaps it was because she was in a good mood, but Gabriella replied in a gentle tone, “I came here because I'm worried about you, Matt. Can you be a good boy and open the door for your mother?”Matthew furrowed his brows but eventually opened the door for his mother. He wanted to see what tricks that woman had up her sleeve.Gabriella was dressed elegantly in red as she gracefully entered the living room. Matthew frowned upon seeing her outfit. He had just lost his wife, yet her mother still had the audacity to dress like that.What was she trying to imply

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.

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
